"So this is what you've been doing lately, Jessy?! Finding out who the woman I told you about it?" asked Tristan as he found a small note about the details Jessy had made in her notes about the woman Tristan had told her about.Tristan was almost angry with her because he didn't want Jessy to know who she was. "Why did you have to write all this down, Jessy? I thought I could trust you to—""I was just curious," Jessy replied quickly. Her voice sounded shaky and she bowed her head. "And I apologize if my ways were really annoying."Tristan looked down at the woman before him and was truly sorry that he had snapped at her. But that was because he didn't want Clarice's identity to be revealed and make his plans fail, including if Joshua found out."I told you, she was gone. And there's nothing between me and her.""But you talked about her like she is so special to you. You know, someone special, will always make you smile when you tell them about her."Tristan was at a loss for words.

Sitting together with someone who had been in your heart was strange. Especially when their story ended in a forced manner, which at the time, their feelings were still intertwined and hard to let go of.Clarice might have been able to behave normally, but not Tristan. He was much more silent, chatting when one of them asked him to. Clarice, on the other hand, tried to make conversation because she didn't want to appear nervous and stiff in front of Joshua."I thought you guys would only show up when our engagement started," Jessy said, in the middle of them enjoying their lunch."Of course not. We were just walking around and I happened to be hungry, so I decided to have lunch at your restaurant," Clarice replied.Joshua just smiled as the conversation calmed him down. He knew what Clarice was doing, that she didn't want to look nervous in front of him. And her efforts really made Joshua feel like he should appreciate it.In a way, Joshua glanced at Tristan who was silent and didn't

Joshua took out his rarely touched cigarettes from his special, expensive-looking cigarette case. Tristan glanced at him and was quite surprised to find out what kind of cigarette case Joshua had. He didn't usually smoke, but he had smoked once in a while. He could also buy a cigarette case like Joshua's, but for him, it was a waste of money considering he very rarely smoked.Joshua held out the cigarette case to him so he could smoke it too. "Well, I came here not knowing that you were here. As my wife said, it was her wish to have lunch at Jessy's restaurant," Joshua said, telling him."I know. I believe her.""You believing her means you believe she loves me already?" asked Joshua, without looking at him.Tristan was silent for a few moments. His body stiffened when Joshua said that. He was reminded of his last conversation with Clarice when he had called her believing Joshua wouldn't find out.Joshua chuckled when he felt his silence and didn't answer his question. "I won't be ang

The engagement day had finally arrived. The decorations used were completely nude in color, which Jessy really liked. Moreover, the engagement was held in a hotel lobby where only certain colleagues and big family were invited because she wanted this engagement to be an engagement full of many moments that she would remember.Jessy looked beautiful in a long dress that looked simple but really showed her sexiness. Her hair was curly and the sides were pinned to the middle. And her head looked like a crown like a princess.Before starting the engagement, she greeted several guests who came, including family, friends, and co-workers. Not forgetting that she also met some of Tristan's friends and Tristan's big family.Tristan himself felt grateful because at least none of his friends or family knew Clarice. Because if they got to know her and met at his engagement ceremony, things would totally fall apart.But Tristan couldn't lie that he was waiting for Clarice's presence. He wanted to

Clarice looked up at the stage. She was quite nervous just watching what was happening there. Where apparently it was Tristan who told the guests about their meeting. Clarice just felt disappointed and sad, but she could hardly put it into words. She just thought that she couldn't be selfish. She had to see the person she loved living happily with what he had chosen.Many times Clarice exhaled, and whether she was feeling it or not, she saw Tristan staring at her several times. It was as if Tristan was telling the guests that his meeting with Jessy was like his meeting with her.Meanwhile, Joshua had his arm around Clarice's waist. He gave Clarice a sign that she was his and would remain his. "Those guys over there, why do you look so nervous?" asked Joshua, in a whisper.Clarice's body stiffened as her husband noticed her nervousness. She immediately tried to neutralize her body so as not to tense up too much and make Joshua keep asking questions she didn't want to answer."I'm not

Terry searched around for Clarice and Joshua, but in the crowd of guests, she couldn't find them at all. She was very upset with her failed attempt. She never thought that Clarice would behave like that toward her. And she really felt Clarice change when she married Joshua.Slowly Terry felt that she wanted to give up. Because after all, no one believed her even though she had told some of her family. They even accused Terry of not really loving Joshua. Her husband, Frans, who even knew how Joshua behaved, did not even believe Terry even though Joshua was not his biological son. Because they all saw how Joshua had been kind to Joel, just like big brother and little brother..Terry sat on the chair with a sigh. "Should I give up? I don't have any evidence anyway. All the evidence at the police station doesn't exist. They really think that Joel died in an accident."She herself felt how disappointed she was in herself for not being able to get things right. And her instincts did not f

They arrived at the hospital with a gathering of several families who were already aware of the news of Terry's accident.Jessy and Tristan also came. The engagement that was already underway had to be finalized quickly with such heartbreaking news.Joshua was silent without saying anything. Because whatever he wanted to say, he had already told Clarice in the car.No one mentioned Terry's situation inside. They were all silent, waiting and looking tense.Clarice rubbed Joshua's shoulder, intending to give him strength. But she felt the tension in Joshua's body, which implied the fear of losing his mother.To Clarice, it didn't matter if someone who hated their parents so much was afraid of losing them. Joshua was one of them, but he was reluctant to admit it let alone show his sadness.Suddenly the doctor who was treating Terry came out and looked at the whole family waiting for Terry."Is there anyone here named Clarice?" the doctor asked.Joshua immediately stood up as Clarice tol

Terry's funeral was short and quick the next day. Everything went so quickly that even Clarice felt that there was nothing special about her mother-in-law. Some of her fellow attendees even had bad things to say about her, which Clarice overheard while she was talking to some of the other guests. Clarice sensed that Terry's life didn't really seem to be doing much good, in fact, it all seemed fake. Clarice sighed. She went back in time to when Terry was kind to her and she knew that it was because of Joel, Joel loved Clarice so much that Terry was kind to her in the end. And for Clarice, to remember someone well, she had to remember the best part of what that person had done. That's how Clarice remembered Terry, she had to go back in time where she could see and feel how Terry was kind to her. Clarice smiled, she then looked for a chair to sit her butt down as her stomach suddenly tightened. It was already the ninth month which meant Clarice would be giving birth soon. According

A week after the funeral, the atmosphere changed. Joshua's demeanor seemed colder than usual, which was a throwback to when Joshua first met Clarice at Joel's funeral.Clarice didn't ask about what had happened to her husband, but she kept track until she felt the change needed to be discussed, because Clarice felt that something was different and uncharacteristic.Until one morning at breakfast, Joshua asked for jam bread. Clarice made it while looking at him silently. When Joshua sat down in his chair, he looked at Clarice with a serious look."Did you want to ask me something, Baby?" Joshua asked.Clarice was immediately nervous and paused as she made the bread for Joshua. She was the one who wanted to ask but Joshua still seemed to know how to ask her questions."Errr, no," Clarice replied."You're always so obvious when you have something to ask, Clarice. Ask me while I can answer.""Promise you won't get angry?" asked Clarice before she got to the point."Yes, I promise."Claric

"WHAT? Are you crazy, Joshua? Making her pregnant?!" asked Tristan, who was shocked by Joshua's idea.When he arrived at the office, Joshua even bluntly told Tristan to make Jessy pregnant if he wanted all his work to come out in one. Because Joshua also said that he could not possibly provide these results continuously.The rules in the contract he had written would change at any time, according to the maker of the contract, and this was where Joshua took advantage of it.As crazy as it sounded, wanting Tristan to get Jessy pregnant meant he wanted Jessy to have a child from the man she loved. And Tristan really thought hard about the idea. He didn’t know if Jessy wanted to have children or not, because they hadn’t talked about anything like that. They just talked about their life together."You've slept with her, she should be pregnant already, right?" asked Tristan."We used protection, she took the pill," Tristan replied casually."Well, too bad. If I were you, loving Jessy, then
