A gun was suddenly pointed at the old woman standing in front of the door. Without fear, the old woman walked closer and even smiled slightly. "Is this how you greet your grandmother, Lucas?" The man named Lucas slowly lowered his gun and holstered it behind his suit. Lucas smoothed out his black suit. "Grandma, why did you come like that? Are you angry at me after getting that report from that trashy woman?" Lucas spoke without looking at the old woman, who was now trying to control her emotions. "Trash? At least she can maintain her dignity compared to the women you consider respectable, dear." The old woman's hand rose and smoothed her grandson's shirt collar. "To me, she's still trash that Grandma picked up at a brothel." Lucas stared coldly. Grandma Louisa smiled sweetly in response to her beloved grandson's words. "She's not a prostitute even though I met her there, isn't that right? You proved it yourself." Lucas's face immediately turned cold upon hearing what the old woman in front of him said. He understood what his grandmother meant, but how did she know? Naya wouldn't be so vulgar as to say that she and Lucas had just spent their first night together. "Honey, Grandma will wait in the dining room. There's something you have to do." The old woman kissed her grandson's cheek softly, then walked elegantly out of Lucas's room. "Damn! Did that trashy woman say something to my grandmother? But even if that trashy woman was still a virgin when she served me, I still wouldn't consider her my wife. I'll find a time to get rid of her from my life." At the dining table, the three of them seemed to be enjoying their breakfast. Naya's omelet was very popular with Grandma and Mr. Bayu. Lucas, who had just entered the dining room, made the previously warm atmosphere turn cold and scary when Naya accidentally caught her husband's annoyed expression. Lucas was truly a person who had no sweetness in him at all. "Mr. Lucas, what would you like to eat? Let me prepare it for you?" Naya, who had already gotten up from her seat, immediately asked with a frightened look on her face. "No need! Bayu, we're leaving now. Have you prepared everything?" Lucas asked the man who was his right-hand man in a cold voice. Bayu glanced at the grandmother who was looking at Lucas. "Is everything ready? But I can't contact Miranda." Lucas hadn't told Bayu that he wouldn't be going with the woman he had caught last night having sex with his own cousin in the apartment he had bought for his lover. Lucas also didn't want to cancel his trip to Miami because he didn't want to be in the same house as the woman who was his wife. "Let's go now, Bay." "Take your wife with you, dear," said Grandma Louisa firmly. "What?" Naya's eyes widened. Lucas suddenly stopped in his tracks. Lucas took a deep breath. He knew what would happen next. "Grandma, I don't need to go with Mr. Lucas. I'll stay here and take care of the housework," said Naya nervously. Of course, Naya was very shocked and worried. She was worried that if she went with her devilish husband, she might not come back alive. "You're the one who needs to go, Nay, instead of that woman named Miranda. You are Lucas's wife and you have more right to be by your husband's side." Lucas turned around and walked towards his grandmother. The look in his eyes seemed to imply that he was very angry with the old woman in front of him at that moment. "Honey, take your wife shopping and enjoy your vacation there. It's been a month since you got married, and you and your wife haven't had your honeymoon yet. Grandma is here, and let me take care of everything here." The old woman's hand gently caressed her grandson's cheek. "I won't take that trash woman with me, Grandma," Lucas said softly and firmly. "Grandma wants Naya to go with you, and if I hear that Naya is hurt or that you are trying to get rid of her, then say goodbye to your grandmother too," said the old woman softly. "Are you threatening me, Grandma?" Lucas stared coldly. "It's not a threat, but it's what I will do. At least Grandma will be happy to meet your grandfather there." Grandma Louisa's hand smoothed the top three buttons of Lucas's open shirt. Lucas was silent, but his jaws were clenched tightly as if holding back anger. Bayu, who saw this, could only hold back his smile. Only Grandma Louisa could subdue her boss. "Naya, go with your husband. Here is your passport, which I made for you because my purpose in coming here was also to give this to you. Have fun and don't worry about preparing anything. Lucas will take you shopping and buy everything you need." "But, Grandma." "Hurry up and go!" Lucas said firmly. Before Naya could finish speaking, Lucas cut her off. Still confused, Naya quickly said goodbye to Grandma Louisa and immediately ran to catch up with Lucas, who was already in his car. The old woman smiled happily as she watched from the window as Lucas's car drove out of her grandson's large mansion. In the car, Lucas chose to remain silent, his expression naturally frightening Naya. Naya preferred to look out the window rather than at her husband's scary face. When they arrived at his private jet, Lucas immediately got in, followed by Naya, who was amazed to see a private jet for the first time and even more amazed that she would be inside it. "If your husband loved you, Naya, your life would be very happy," said Mr Bayu, who was walking behind Naya. "Even if he didn't have all this, if he loved me, I would also be very happy, Mr Bayu," replied Naya. Bayu only responded with a slight smile as he adjusted his glasses. Naya was directed to sit alone near the window. Meanwhile, Lucas chose to sit with Bayu in another seat located right in front of Naya's seat. "I'm scared," Naya whispered, and only she could hear her words. This was Naya's first time on a plane and she was really scared, but she didn't dare say it, especially since there was something even more frightening inside the jet. Naya sat nervously because the plane was about to take off and Naya was really scared of that. "What should I do?" Naya said to herself in confusion. She tried to look at the other seats, which appeared to be empty. Naya, who was already panicking, immediately got up from her seat and moved to the front, where her husband was. Naya sat right next to Lucas and quickly grabbed his hand. "I'm scared," she said, her voice sounding bitter and sad."Bayu, get all the transfer documents ready."Bayu, who was standing behind Lucas, immediately frowned."What documents, sir?"Lucas, who was standing there, gazed out the window of his office. His expression was calm and impassive. "I’m leaving the mafia world. Bayu, I want to walk away from all of this."“What do you mean, sir?” Bayu was confused by Lucas’s words.“I’m going to withdraw from the mafia.”“What? Why?”Lucas finally turned to face the man speaking to him. “The reason is simple—not because I’m afraid, but for the sake of my family now. I’ve already lost Kanaya once. I don’t want Hayden and Hailey to lose their father.”Bayu fell silent. It wasn’t that Bayu disagreed with this, but it all came so suddenly, and Bayu knew that leaving the underworld wasn’t as easy as flipping a hand.“It’s not because Kanaya asked me to—I’m doing this because I want to, too.”Bayu knew all too well that Lucas’s life in the underworld was always fraught with danger—not just for Lucas himsel
"Kanaya!"Lucas’s voice was filled with panic.In an instant, his whole body tensed as he took in his surroundings. The guests were starting to panic; some were scrambling to find a way out as the sudden darkness plunged the room into chaos.Bayu sprang into action. “Sir!”“Where’s Kanaya?” Lucas asked urgently.Bayu looked toward where Kanaya had last been standing. However, she was no longer there. Lucas’s heart immediately began pounding.“Find her now!” Lucas’s command sounded cold, but Bayu, who knew him well, could sense the deep fear behind his voice.The fear of losing Kanaya again. A few minutes earlier, when the lights went out, Kanaya had only felt someone pulling her hand.“Lucas?” But there was no answer.Kanaya tried to pull her hand away, but the person held on tightly.“Who are you?”Not long after, a voice she knew all too well rang out.“It’s me.”Kanaya’s body froze instantly. “Raymond?”The man led her to a deserted alley behind the building. Kanaya stared at him w
Raymond was still standing in the corner of the room. From where he stood, he could see everything clearly.Kanaya, smiling slightly as she spoke with someone. Hayden and Hailey, laughing occasionally with their nanny.And Lucas? He stood beside Kanaya as if the world contained only the two of them. Lucas’s hand was still clasped around Kanaya’s.It was a simple scene, but for Raymond, it was the most painful thing of all because, back then, he was the one who had always been by Kanaya’s side when she was at her lowest.He was the one who listened to all of Kanaya’s tears. He was the one who saw the wounds Lucas had inflicted.Now, all his struggles seemed meaningless. “Why did you still choose him?” Raymond muttered softly, his hands clenched into fists.“Even though I was the one there when you were alone. I could have been a good father to them, too. Meanwhile, Lucas, who had been talking with some business associates, suddenly stopped. His eyes shifted toward the corner of the ro
"Let’s lure him out."Bayu nodded slowly. He’d been working for Lucas long enough to know exactly how the man thought."Are you planning to use Mrs. Kanaya as bait?" he asked cautiously.Lucas’s gaze immediately turned sharp. "Don’t ever say that again."Bayu immediately bowed his head. “I’m sorry, sir.”“I won’t risk Kanaya’s safety or the children’s just to catch Raymond.”“Then how are we going to do it?”Lucas turned back to the window. “Raymond still loves Kanaya.” Bayu didn’t deny it. “And a man who’s obsessed will always make mistakes.”Lucas picked up his cell phone and called someone. Bayu stood waiting for instructions from Lucas. “Make sure the news spreads by tomorrow morning, Bayu,” Lucas said after hanging up. “What news, sir?” Bayu’s face instantly showed confusion. Lucas gave a faint smile. “The news that I’m taking Kanaya and the kids to Dinov’s company anniversary party.”Bayu immediately understood his boss’s intention. Lucas was deliberately giving Raymond a cha
That night, the atmosphere in the mansion felt far quieter than usual. Kanaya stood on the bedroom balcony, staring at the dark, starless sky. A soft night breeze swept through, brushing against her loose hair. But the cold in the air was nothing compared to the coldness filling her heart. Everything had been revealed. The truth she had been waiting for had finally come. Yet strangely, it wasn’t only relief she felt. The pain was still there, even more vivid than before. The bedroom door slowly opened. Lucas stepped inside with cautious movements, as if afraid to disturb her. His eyes fell on Kanaya’s fragile back under the dim light. “I know you’re still awake,” he said softly. Kanaya didn’t turn right away. “I don’t know what I’m supposed to feel right now.” Lucas fell silent. “I was right all along,” Kanaya continued, her voice trembling. “I didn’t betray you, but you still drove me away, Lucas.” Every word felt like a blade cutting through her. “I lost everything back then,
Bayu walked casually into a quiet café. He only intended to grab a cup of coffee before returning to the mansion. However, his steps halted when his ears caught a very familiar name. “Come on, Gio. I’m just curious, where did you get that much money?” Bayu slightly turned toward the source of the voice. A man sat with his back to him, while a beautiful woman sat across from him, her expression full of curiosity. “Amanda, you don’t need to know everything,” the man replied casually. Bayu narrowed his eyes. That voice was familiar. He began listening more closely to their conversation. “I have the right to know!” the woman insisted. “You took me on a trip abroad, even threw that extravagant engagement party. That’s not something small, Gio!” The name made Bayu freeze. Gio? Could this be the same person who had once destroyed Lucas and Kanaya’s relationship? Bayu slowly moved closer and sat at a nearby table, pretending to be busy with his phone, though all his attention was on th
Lana jolted and immediately shoved Lucas’s chest with all her strength. Her face was pale, and her trembling hands tried to straighten her slightly disheveled work shirt.Lucas didn’t move at all. He stood tall and calm, adjusting his tie while staring at Lana with a mocking, triumphant smile. It w
"Mrs. Kanaya's leg is fine, Mr. Lucas, it will heal in a few days. I will give you some medicine to rub on her leg." The beautiful doctor smiled at Kanaya, who was sitting in front of her. "Thank you."Lucas stood up from his chair, followed by Kanaya. "I'll take Kanaya home." "Sir, you don't ne
Kanaya, who had just woken up, looked around in surprise at the quiet surroundings. "Oh my God! Why am I sleeping here? And where is Mr. Lucas?" Naya quickly got out of bed and looked for her clothes, which were still in the bathroom. After getting dressed, she looked around for her husband. "Wh
On the way, Kanaya was still sobbing over her husband's treatment of her, who thought she had been flirting with a man in the boutique, even though Naya herself did not know the man. "If you really want to seduce that man, don't do it when you're with me. I don't want to feel like I'm being played
