Wedded to the Ruler: My Contract Husband Gives It All 188. A Quiet Getaway Part 1
Lily rose from her seat. She could not bring herself to continue the conversation, unable to bear the sight of Rani, yet determined not to soften and make the mistake of forgiving Sonia."I apologize, Auntie, but I have to go home. My husband is waiting. Please head home, and do take care on the road."Lily offered a slight bow of her head after speaking. She let out a breath as she walked toward Arsen, who was already waiting for her inside the car."Let's go home," Lily said. She closed the car door, keeping her eyes on Arsen, who was staring right back at her."What is it?" Lily asked, puzzled."You didn't cry or decide to forgive Sonia, did you?"Lily shook her head at Arsen's suspicious gaze, then replied, "I won't forgive Sonia; it's just that I feel sorry for her mother."Arsen could only sigh, then started the car's engine to drive away from the company grounds.Lily glanced into the side mirror, watching Rani's frail reflection walking out of the building.Noticing that Lily

Thomas slipped his phone into his pocket after sending the message to Hendra. He then headed to Arsen's office carrying the documents Arsen needed."Hendra just reported that he hasn't obtained any further information regarding Juna yet, Sir," Thomas said."Mm..." Arsen replied while reviewing the files. "How is the progress on Sonia's case?" Arsen then asked."Her case file has been submitted, so she won't be able to escape the grip of the law," Thomas explained in reply.Arsen gave a few slow nods."Have you prepared what I asked for?" Arsen asked, looking up at Thomas standing before his desk. He slid over the documents he had just finished signing."Rest assured, Sir, I have prepared everything. Please enjoy your weekend together with Miss Lily," Thomas answered. "If you need any assistance while Aunt Jess is away, please don't hesitate to contact me," he added.Meanwhile, on that same day, Arya arrived at the police station to provide a statement regarding his involvement in the

Arsen sat in his office chair after Anthony left. He remained quiet, turning their earlier conversation over in his mind.Only when Thomas entered did Arsen begin to share his thoughts."I have my doubts about the evidence Anthony provided.""Doubts? What do you mean, Sir?" Thomas furrowed his brow, perplexed."The figure in the video and the recorded voice isn't Arya. Just like how he framed Lily's father using AI technology, it seems the real culprit did the exact same thing."Thomas was taken aback, immediately jumping to conclusions. "Did Mr. Anthony do it?"Arsen shook his head, maintaining an air of total calm."No. You know full well Anthony suffered massive losses as well. Weren't you the one who calculated the price per liter of raw materials for that premium skincare product?" Arsen replied.Thomas nodded. "True. It's impossible that Mr. Anthony would do that; he has no quarrel with you, aside from his mother taking a liking to Miss Lily."Thomas pressed his lips tightly tog

Bryan let out a hollow laugh, looking away. He fumed, desperate to vent all the rage pent up in his chest."Isn't it the other way around? You're the one who made a fool out of me for letting myself be swayed by your words!" Bryan raged, completely unable to trust his father any longer."Watch your mouth!" Arya barked.Instead of cowering at Arya's shout, Bryan puffed out his chest and lifted his chin in defiance."I'm stating facts! All this time, you've always resorted to any means necessary to get what you want, including snatching away what was rightfully mine—your own son's. You truly are selfish!"Arya ground his teeth at Bryan's words.Meanwhile, Monica could do nothing; frightened, she merely watched in silence from her hospital bed."You're no example of a good father," Bryan said. "You're greedier than a pig."A resounding slap landed squarely on Bryan's cheek the second he finished insulting his father.Bryan fell silent, turning his face away.Should he even be surprised t

Arsen shook his head. "No. Just let Bryan handle his own problems."Lily gave an understanding nod. She grazed her fingers over Arsen's toned abdomen once more before asking another question."You haven't answered me: when are you going to be completely honest with Mom and Dad?"Arsen fell silent for a moment, peering deep into Lily's thoughts. He noticed the apprehension lurking there."Are you anxious?""Huh... what?" Lily gasped, taken aback, then quickly shook her head."No, why would I be anxious? It's just..."Lily was incapable of lying; she lowered her gaze until Arsen gently touched her cheek."Are you afraid your father will think poorly of me again?" Arsen asked.Lily didn't answer, knowing full well that Arsen already had his answer."Hurry up and take a shower; I need to shower too," Lily said.She turned her body away, but Arsen caught her wrist first and pulled her into an embrace."Why don't we shower together?"Arsen teased her playfully, causing Lily to flush with em

Bryan returned to his parents' house after meeting with Arsen. He trudged listlessly up the stairs toward his bedroom, his uncle's words turning endlessly in his head.Bryan had just reached the top landing when Monica's voice rang out in greeting."You're home," Monica said.Bryan turned toward his mother, deciding to ask her about what Arsen had told him."There's something I need to talk to you about, Mom," Bryan said.Monica gave a gentle nod, and they stepped into Bryan's room to speak in private."Did you know about the shares that were rightfully mine, but Dad sold them off instead? Shares Grandfather gave to me?" Bryan asked.Monica gasped, her eyes going wide as she shook her head slowly."I know nothing about that," Monica answered.Bryan wasn't surprised in the least. "Just as I thought. You had no idea.""It seems you really know nothing about what Dad has been doing all this time."Monica's brow furrowed faintly. "What do you mean, talking like that?" she asked, bewildere
