Letta was now struggling to carry a tall, bulky man to a room somewhere, while being intoxicated herself. Letta, in a spirit of mutual assistance, was also dealing with another drunken individual.
"Can you tell me where your room is?" Letta asked for the umpteenth time, as the man only bowed his head and followed Letta's steps. Letta didn't know which room to take the man to, so she ended up just wandering through the corridors on the floor she was on.
"Actually, how much did he drink to end up unconscious like this?" Letta murmured while struggling to drag the man's hefty body. Eventually, upon reaching the elevator door, Letta tried to dig into the man's jacket, hoping for some clue to help her. The stroke of luck favored Letta when she found the key to the man's room, which turned out to be in the VVIP suite of the hotel, causing Letta to blink in disbelief.
Letta finally pressed the button for the highest floor in the lift to take the man to his room. After some struggle and a few minutes, Letta arrived at the door of the room. She then unlocked the door and dragged the man onto the soft, king-sized bed with a goose feather quilt, unexpectedly falling onto the bed herself due to the man's weight.
Letta immediately released her grasp on the man's arms and tried to compose herself. Letta began to refocus, realizing that Mia was probably waiting for her with the online taxi Letta was supposed to order. However, Letta was still in the luxurious VVIP room, momentarily forgetting her own affairs.
"I think the cost of renting this room is equivalent to six months of my salary," Letta mumbled as she continued to look around. However, the next moment, as Letta attempted to turn, a large hand suddenly gripped her arm, causing Letta to fall onto the man's body.
Letta's eyes widened as she clearly recognized the face that had been bowing down all this while. She reached out her hand, pulling back the strands of hair covering the man's forehead, only to realize that the man beneath her was her own boss, prompting her to stand up. But suddenly, the large hand restrained her and pulled her waist closer.
"Don't leave, Ara, stay with me tonight," murmured the man, whom Letta knew as Marco.
"Sorry, sir, I'm not Ara, I'm Letta," replied Letta naively, causing Marco to mumble in his sleep. Letta then slowly tried to release Marco's grip, but the next moment she felt herself being lifted. Marco flipped Letta's position, leaving her trapped, with a shocked expression, gazing at Marco, who was pinning her down.
"Ara, please don't abandon me tonight. You've truly tortured me this past week, Ara," Marco said, staring at Letta, who could only blink. Letta didn't understand the situation she was now in.
"But, sir, I already said that—" Letta's words were cut off as Marco suddenly silenced her with a kiss that instantly froze her body.
Marco aggressively attacked Letta's lips, making it impossible for her to even push away the fervent body on top of her, let alone take a breath. Marco, with the belief that Letta was someone named Ara, seemed to be pouring out his longing for her.
Letta could only remain silent, accepting whatever Marco was doing to her. She accepted the kisses that trailed down her jaw and neck, not knowing what he was thinking. The night seemed endless, turning into a regret that Letta had never imagined. A night where a stranger took something precious from her that she had guarded so closely.
A night when Letta felt as if her whole body was burning, as Marco's muscular hands caressed every inch of her skin with desire and what seemed like worship. She didn't know what he was imagining, but Letta could only accept it, getting carried away with what Marco was doing to her. Even when Marco started moving above her, Letta gripped the silk sheet beneath her so tightly that Marco's movements stopped, as he realized something that brought him back to his senses momentarily, gazing at the face of a woman he didn't even recognize.
"Are you not Ara?" Marco asked, leaving Letta to simply close her eyes, enduring the pain in her lower body.
"But I don't care, because you're already in my grasp tonight, so there's no going back," Marco continued, resuming what he had paused before, moving atop Letta and pouring all his desires into her body, making Letta unable to hold back her tears, enduring the night that felt so cold against her skin.
Eventually, Letta felt something explode within her, causing her to embrace Marco's shoulders, then gripping tightly, leaving marks on his back as he quickened his movements and collapsed on Letta's body, which felt utterly shattered because of his actions. Finally, Marco rolled over to pull Letta into his embrace.
"Sleep, I'm very tired," muttered Marco as he pulled Letta's waist into his embrace, forcing Letta to reluctantly close her heavy and weary eyes. Letta didn't know what kind of morning she would face tomorrow, but for now, she could only shut her eyes, hoping that all of this was just a dream, that she was intoxicated, and that she would wake up tomorrow morning in Mia's apartment. That was what Letta hoped for now, and hopefully, God would hear her prayers. Eventually, a soft kiss on Letta's forehead ushered her into that world of dreams.
Letta looked back at Marco, who was now sitting next to her, his gaze focused on the road ahead where the congested cars filled the streets. Somehow, Letta felt the timing was a little off because the traffic jam was consuming their remaining time on the road. If the traffic had been smooth, they would have reached the shopping center in about 15 minutes. It had been more than 30 minutes, yet their car hadn't moved an inch. Letta could see how Marco's jaw was clenched. It seemed that it wasn't just the traffic jam making Marco look angry, but also someone who had sent flowers to her that they still didn't know about. Letta had only read the card, which said the flowers were as beautiful and charming as her. It seemed that was why his emotions finally surfaced. Letta then stroked the back of Marco's hand, which was now gripping the steering wheel, making Marco look deeply at Letta. "Are you still angry?" Letta asked, making Marco finally sigh deeply. "I'm not angry," Marco replied, ma
Marco then smiled and approached Letta. He then embraced her from behind, taking over the watering of the plants and turning it off before releasing her carelessly."It's okay, don't be angry like that. If you keep making that face, I might just devour you anytime," said Marco, causing Letta to want to respond. However, Marco immediately placed his index finger on his wife's soft lips."No protests. I truly had no intention of disparaging your cake. I was just worried that if you went down to the kitchen, you might get hurt," Marco finally said, causing Letta to sigh deeply."I do have to go down to the kitchen as a woman, as a future mother. Of course, I have to provide delicious meals for my husband and my children. You know, everything I forget truly makes me forget how to cook. Isn't that normal?" Letta asked, making Marco shake his head."You don't need to do that. What's the point of hiring the best cook in this house if you're going back to the kitchen in the end?" Marco said,
Marco furrowed his brow slightly when he realized Letta wasn't by his side. He felt anxious and worried, especially when recalling bad memories. He put on his bathrobe and hurried to the bathroom. After checking the empty bathroom and dressing room, Marco noticed scattered clothes belonging to Letta, reminding him that he forgot to take Letta shopping.After freshening up, Marco changed into casual clothes and headed downstairs. As he passed the guards and servants, they saluted and bowed, something that was usual at Marco's house. As he was about to head to the garden, he heard a commotion coming from the kitchen, prompting him to furrow his brow and decide to check first before looking for Letta. In the kitchen, Marco was surprised to see Letta sandwiched between two servants and Desi, observing the messy state of the kitchen."What are you doing?" Marco asked, and seeing his wife's face made him smile broadly. Letta answered somewhat irritably, "Come on, if you want to tease, you b
Marco got out of the car carrying a box of cakes and went straight into the house."Where is Letta?" Marco asked as he passed one of the servants."She's in the garden next to the house, sir," the servant replied, causing Marco to glance at his watch, which read 2:00 in the afternoon."Didn't we take a break after coming back from the garden earlier?" Marco asked, causing the servant to shake their head and bow."Madam was seen strolling with Desi, but I didn't see her go into her room," the servant said, making Marco heave a long sigh. After that, Marco walked towards the garden on the side of his house.There, Marco saw Letta sitting not far from the edge of the pool, sipping tea and nibbling on some snacks that seemed untouched. Marco furrowed his brow as he saw Letta gazing at the pool."What are you thinking about?" Marco asked, making Letta startle slightly and smile as she looked at him."Are you back already?" Letta asked, making Marco nod his head."So what's making you think
Marco immediately stepped inside. Currently, Marco had made an appointment with one of the doctors who had previously treated Letta. He knocked on the door, entered, and sat in front of the doctor, who smiled at him."Mr. Jovanka, how can I help you?" the doctor asked, making Marco nod."Yes, I need the doctor's assistance," Marco said, causing the doctor to furrow his brow. The doctor was actually a bit surprised because just a few hours ago, he had met with Marco to examine Letta. Shortly after that, Marco contacted him again to make an appointment, but this time for himself. The doctor finally chose to listen to what the heir of the Jovanka estate really needed."Yes, what kind of assistance do you need?" the doctor asked, making Marco look at him seriously."I want to ask first, can my wife recover to her previous state?" Marco asked again, making the doctor furrow his brow slightly."Are you referring to her memory?" the doctor asked, making Marco nod."Yes, about all the memorie
Marco gazed at Letta, who was leaning on his shoulder. They were in the car on their way home after Letta insisted on staying silent for a while in the park."Why?" Marco asked, reaching out his hand to gently stroke Letta's face, prompting Letta to finally look up at her husband."No, I'm just thinking," Letta said, causing Marco to furrow his brow. Letta then leaned her head back again, and Marco gently stroked the top of his wife's head."I'm scared," Letta said, causing Marco to stop his hand movement."What are you afraid of? Is someone bothering you, or is something troubling your mind?" Marco asked, making Letta nod."There's something troubling my mind," Letta said, making Marco feel a sense of unease. Each word Letta wanted to say seemed to instill a sense of fear in Marco. He was afraid that one day her memories would slowly start to resurface, becoming a time bomb for her."After meeting Celine earlier, I've been thinking a lot," Letta said, making Marco fall silent as he l
