Chapter 41
Aura gave a list of orders ordered by a lone old man who had just arrived at their cafe to Thomas—her part-timer, who was now able to do his job well without making a mistake to immediately prepare the order. All thanks to her promise to give the man the chance to make his first coffee next week, following Keith's suggestion the other day. If she knew it would be turned like this, she should have done it in the first place."Aura?"Keith called out to her name in a whisper while she was at the cash register, causing her to turn to face the man at once."I've given you a chance to approach her. Don't forget your job.""I know, Boss," she said when she saw her friend's tense face. "But the evidence I found is still scanty.""So you still have no progress with the investigation?"She had no choice but to confirm Keith's question weakly. Honestly, the mission Keith gave this time was more difficult than all her previous mission

Tatius returned the smartphone back to Alan, who immediately stuffed it into his semi-formal light brown coat pocket without checking it. The man's hands were full of their belongings, which was much more than their belongings when they first set their foot in Bali. He, on the other side, only carried two bags of gifts, which he planned to gave with all his co-workers at the restaurant where he worked, and Alan's co-workers—since his boyfriend did not have a good eye to choose souvenirs for his co-workers. It was not too heavy, so he repeatedly offered to help carry half of their belongings that Alan was carrying when he realized that his boyfriend was having a hard time carrying all of them. However, the man refused his offer, arguing that he could still carry all of them by himself.So stubborn, he muttered to himself. But he still loved his boyfriend anyway.The thing that annoyed him most was the fact that his boyfriend still kept treating him like a sick person

Chapter 43
Alan had just finished tidying up their belongings when they returned from their week's holiday to Bali. Most of them were souvenirs that Tatius bought as gifts that were given to his coworkers at the restaurant where the man worked as a farewell gift for resigning from his job yesterday after he had the opportunity to discuss his decision with Tatius.He knew that his boyfriend had objected when he made the offer because he knew very well that Tatius liked his job. But the man did not protest with his decision at all, just agreed to his offer. Even though he had prepared the worst thing; greeted by Tatius's relentless scolding, which he thought would reject his idea, considering that he had been working there for six years. Whatever changes the image of his boyfriend's reaction, he did not care. The important thing, Tatius willingness to accept his offer to work at Keith's cafe was more than enough for him. And it meant, he would not lose Tatius.Wiping the swea

Chapter 44
Keith stared at the headquarters of the Skylar mafia group that stood majestically in front of him, along with the sound of his car door closing. His left hand took off the sunglasses he was wearing and stuck them in the pocket under his jacket, raising an eyebrow. In front of the building were several formally dressed people with perfectly trained bodies on guard with their arms crossed in front of their torso, wearing a harsh face that managed to intimidate anyone who tried to enter the premises without any interest.Except for him, of course. Also, Alan, who had already stood beside him with enthusiastic eyes as the man must have been hoping that their sudden encounter would end in chaos—something that man had always liked."Listen, Alan," he leaned close to Alan, whispered. "Don't do anything stupid until you get instructions from me. Understand?"Alan grumbled, followed by a long sigh of disappointment from the man. "Boring. But I will try."

The man asked the burly man that escorted Keith before, to leave him and the man in a fairly large and spacious room. The man then invited him to sit down, while the man himself still sat on his chair, rested his hands on his desk and forming a pyramid. The man's eyes remained fixed on him as if the man was observing him like a jewel to make her stifled. Only the clock in the wall near the windows at the right side of the man's desk ticking, with the clean sound of the air conditioner doing its great job of cooling the room, while at the outside of the room he was right now, he could still hear Alan arguing with Skylar's men.Ah, it was happening again. Looked like his hot-blooded best friend was making a scene again. He could only hope that his friend would still remember his warning before entering the building properly, so as not to cause trouble for both parties."Frankly, I still can't believe the news of your marriage to that woman named Clark," the man sai

Keith was surprised when the man, who also took a deep breath like him while he was looking at the man, in amazement.“Damn it! It must be Ivan again! That jerk ... always does nothing but creating troubles!" the man grunted and cursed whoever it was who had the name Ivan before looking back at him. "I'm really sorry for making a stupid scene like this and make you feel uncomfortable. Ivan is always like that,  so irritable. Usually, he is the one who always replaces me doing work in the field because I'm busy taking care of my company."His position, oddly enough, was the same as him. Perhaps, the rumours he had heard were not really about Derek, but Ivan—if he dared to believe that man's word."You can take what I said earlier and rely on me whenever you want me. I'm willing to help you any time," said the man as he walked toward the door of the room, opened the door to the room and invited him to go out ahead of the man while the man walked after hi

Marie watched the share price of her company move in an increasingly sinister direction on her computer screen. She kept tapping the pen she had been holding for two hours to calm herself down, which had become a habit whenever she felt anxious. In the past, when she was a child and always got worried easily, she grew a bad habit of biting her nails, making her mother angry. Her mother thought it was a bad habit that would damage her nails and not good for a woman to built that bad habit as her mother was a traditional woman who thought that woman should act just like society always told her. So her mother taught her to transfer the bad habit to another place, tapping things, just like the pen she was holding right now.Still not seeing anything good from her computer screen, she took a deep sigh, stopped tapping her pen and move her attention to the piles of documents on her des

Keith let out a lethargic sigh when he saw the message he had sent half an hour ago had not yet been answered by his wife. There was only a sign that his chat had been read by the woman, and that was all. Yet, he had already taken the time to hurry back to the cafe, hoping that he could see his wife, who might be already waiting for him and spend her lunchtime at his cafe like she did yesterday, before returning to her office. He already spent his time to came up with a lot of reason if Marie asked him the reason why she did not find him or maybe making her waiting for a long time. And now, his effort was in vain as Marie did not show her face at his cafe.Would they soon return to a time when that woman was busy thinking about herself and ignoring him like the beginning of their marriage?No, no. Marie must have had other reasons for not being able to reply to his text. Should he pick up Marie after his shift ended?It might be a great

Chapter 49
Keith got out of the cab, which had now disappeared from his path, dropping it off in the parking lot of the Clark Corp. building—his wife's company—which he had not had a chance to visit since their wedding. For a moment, he spent his time staring at the majestic building. He tightened the oversized white jacket with the accent straps around his shoulders and arms, which was quite successful in dispelling the cold air around him, remembering that the season was now entering autumn, then entering the building. A black-and-white short-collared sweater with upside-down small black triangles patterns, black semi-formal trousers and ankle boots made of vegan leather made his appearance look much younger than his actual age. So many times he found people there looking at him in astonishment. Some even greeted him in a friendly contrived voice, asking the reason for his presence in the building. Many of them thought he was visiting the building to meet his parents. He only rep

He snapped out of his mind when he heard Marie's voice calling out to him, running quickly over to him in his high heels (which always amazed him how all the women did without falling). The woman's bright smile behind her tired face made him feel even more guilty.  "Gosh! I'm sorry to make you come here," the woman immediately hugged him tightly, then kissed him on the cheek as if they had not seen him in a long time. "My iPhone's battery is dead, so I can't reply to your text earlier. I was just about to go to your cafe when Felicia announced your arrival. Did you wait long?"  For now, it was better to pretend he did not know the matter, afraid of hurting Marie's high self-esteem. "No. I just came."  "Oh, that is good. I th
