Lady Vengeance and her Billionaire Lover!

"Emma, I'd like to talk to you for a moment ...."

At that time, the 23-year-old woman was sitting in the gazebo reading a book and enjoying the breeze, to the point that her face was slightly covered by her hair because of the wind.

The woman, whose name is Emma Adwlyn, has hazel eyes and brown hair and looks up at her father. She nodded her head, inviting him to sit next to her.

"So, daddy already has plans to get married."

Hearing this, Emma, who was holding a book, immediately fell.

Of course, she was surprised because not even one year after her mother died, her father already intended to find a replacement.

"Forgive me, My Darling ... I'm just telling you this. But, I do need another wife. Especially since I'm not young anymore, I need someone who can be a story buddy and take care of me too." Her father immediately explained to Emma.

At first, Emma felt hurt that her father so easily opened his heart to other women, but when she heard that her father was lonely and needed a wife, Emma couldn't be selfish.

"Fine. Emma agrees. Let's get Emma together with that woman first, before I take the step to be more serious."

The smile on her father's face was wide and he immediately hugged Emma's body.

"Even though there will be a new family member, I will still prioritize you."

Emma was happy that her father was happy. And she waited to meet the woman of her father's choice.

A few hours later, when Emma was going to campus, she didn't talk as much as usual. Making one of her close friends feel confused by Emma's behavior today.

"Why, are you fighting with your boyfriend again?" she scolded.

"No, I didn't fight. It's not that. It's just that I have a lot on my mind. My dad says he's getting married."

"Seriously?"

"To whom?" she asked again.

"Earlier, he said her name is Jovanka Joice ... Yeah, that's her name!"

"Joice? Wait a minute, I'm kinda familiar with her last name ...." Her friend seemed to think for a moment. This was because she had recently heard that name on one of the foreign news channels.

"Gosh, Emma ... It seems like she's not a good woman. I remember she was involved in a case in a Middle Eastern country and she escaped from there!"

"It's just the same name ... There's no way my father would choose a woman without first researching her background." Emma couldn't believe what her friend was saying.

Then, her eyes accidentally looked to the North. Where her future fiancé was smiling at her.

"I'll take my leave." Emma winked at her friend and picked up the laptop lying on the table.

"Emma, but she is a woman who–"

However, Emma had already stepped away from her friend so she didn't hear what her friend said.

"You look beautiful," complimented Ravens–her fiancé-to-be. They had been dating for five years.

Emma punched Ravens lightly on the arm as she blushed.

"Oh yeah, want to go out with me tonight?" offered Ravens.

"I can't. My dad's girlfriend is coming to the house. And we're going to have dinner for a while ... Hopefully, she's what I expected." Emma let out a long breath. She couldn't imagine seeing her father with another woman.

"Believe me, your father's choice won't be wrong," Ravens said as if to calm Emma who was overthinking.

"Yeah, I hope so ...."

In the evening ...

The dinner as planned materialized. As it turned out, her father's future wife was very nice. To Emma's delight, the woman had a daughter who was the same age as her. Her daughter was in the same college as Emma, her name was Jennifer.

However, Emma didn't know her because they had different majors. Instead, Jennifer knew Emma. Because Emma was famous among the students there.

Born into a rich and beautiful family, the sole heiress of the Adwlyn Agency. She had a handsome boyfriend. Many women envied her because Emma lived like in a fairy tale. Even so, Emma was never big-headed to anyone.

For some reason, her father seemed to be in a hurry to decide to get married. To the point that her father said he would hold the wedding in one week.

Will Emma be able to see her father with another woman?

***

It's been two weeks since her father and stepmother's wedding took place. Emma's father who is a businessman can't stay at home for too long.

Today, her father went on an overseas business trip to South Korea. Her father would be there for a week.

"Dad, take care of your health, don't get tired." Emma hugged her father tightly.

"Of course, Honey. Now, your mom and Jennifer are here to keep you company."

Usually, when her father was out of town or abroad, Emma always felt lonely. But not anymore. Because her stepmother and Jennifer were here.

Her father said goodbye to the three of them. He quickly got into his car driven by his driver.

"Oh yeah, Emma ... Mmmh, your boyfriend, he knows me!" When she said that, Jennifer looked embarrassed. But also happy.

However, Emma looked confused. Why would she be so happy, just because Ravens knew her?

"Back then, he was in the same race as me. He motivated me a lot, even the reason I entered the race was because of him ... I mean, I admire his intelligence! Especially now that he's an actor at our father's agency!"

Our father? Honestly, Emma still felt uncomfortable when Jennifer said that her father was both of their fathers.

After all, why would Jennifer say that to her about the Ravens? Just ruining her mood!

"Yes, I did intentionally recommend Ravens to be an actor in my father's company. Because he also has talent," Emma replied with a faint smile.

Emma had to answer her nicely. Because now, they were family.

Since there were no classes scheduled today, Emma intended to rest all day in her room without anyone disturbing her.

Moreover, now her boyfriend is busy with his new job. Therefore, there was nothing for Emma to do today.

She don't know how many hours Emma slept in her room. Until the sound of a knock on the door kept her awake.

"Ms. Emma ... Ms. Emma ...."

One of the maids there knocked on the door of her room. Lazily, Emma opened the door. Still with sleepy-looking eyes.

"Forgive me, Ms ... I have to say this ...."

When Emma didn't focus on the maid's face, she immediately opened her eyes wide while linking her eyebrows at the maid's panicked expression.

"The plane Mr. Adwlyn was on ... Crashed ...."

Then, how was Mr. Adwlyn doing? Was he one of the victims of the plane crash?

***

Now, his father's handsome face has been covered by a coffin and will soon be buried.

The death of the CEO of the Adwlyn Agency shocked everyone in New York. The reason is, in the morning Mr. Adwlyn was interviewed and looked happy like a newlywed.

However, now everyone is crying because of his sudden and tragic death.

To make Emma even sadder, Ravens did not come to her father's funeral. Because he was out of town and even harder to reach, filming in the woods for three days straight.

Emma had nowhere to lean at the moment.

All the mourners one by one began to leave the Adwlyn residence. Emma who was daydreaming, stared at the large photo of her late parents in her father's office, making her heart ache even more.

"Why did you have the heart to leave Emma here alone?"

Suddenly, someone opened the door knob of the office. However, Emma didn't care at all who came. She just stared straight at the picture of her late parents.

"Hurry up and sign this!"

Emma's eyes narrowed at the person who was none other than her stepmother. Throwing a document onto the table.

"What is this?"

"Quick, sign this! Don't talk too much!" At that moment, Jovanka's angelic face now turned into a monster as she stared at Emma.

"Ah, damn it. You took too long!"

Jovanka stared at the open door as if giving a code. A few seconds later, two bodyguards who were part of Adwlyn's bodyguards appeared here, making Emma even more confused.

What was going on right now?

The two bodyguards held both of Emma's arms in a grip strong enough to make Emma wince in pain.

"What are you guys doing? I'm your boss ... Aaaa, damn it!"

Without hesitation, one of the bodyguards directed Emma's face towards the piece of paper already on the table with a rough treatment.

"Quick, sign it. Before we do something rude to you!" said Jovanka.

"Fuck. So, you've been plotting against my family all this time?" Emma was silent as she read the outline of the letter she had to sign.

It said that all the inheritance that should have belonged to Emma would be taken by her stepmother.

"Sign this or die?" threatened Jovanka who suddenly pointed a sharp knife at her.

"You demon woman–"

A slap landed hard on Emma's cheek. Out of nowhere, Jennifer was suddenly beside Emma and slapped her hard on the cheek.

Fresh blood ran down the corner of Emma's lips. Her cheek felt very painful. However, Emma could still stare at Jennifer and Jovanka in turn.

"Fucking bitch! You two are such bitches!" Not accepting being treated like that, Emma continued to swear at the two of them.

"Get me some hot water to dip her hands in!" Jovanka was completely insane. Her ambition to seize the Adwlyn family legacy went to the extent of using such dirty means.

"No, not yet, Mom!" Jennifer took a few steps forward with her arms crossed in front of her chest.

"Fine, if you still don't want to. I'll kill Ravens' career. I'll tell that director to dump the Ravens!"

Of course, the threat did not affect Emma at first. Instead, she laughed as if dismissing Jennifer's threat.

"That director doesn't even recognize bitches like you two! So, don't expect–"

Annoyed that Emma had challenged her, Jennifer, not to be outdone, quickly grabbed the cell phone that was in her pocket. And she called someone.

["Are the Ravens there?"]

["There is, Ms, what's up? How can I help you, Ms?"]

That's the director's voice! How did Jennifer get his cell phone number?

["Please, fire Ravens–"]

"I'll sign it!" Emma exclaimed in a loud voice.

"Too bad, I already told the director to fire Ravens."

"Leave Ravens out of it! He has nothing to do with this. Hurry up and call the director again and I'll sign this!"

"Sign it first. Then I'll call him back!"

Emma sighed loudly. Her eyes looked one by one at Jovanka, Jennifer, and the two bodyguards who were still gripping her hands tightly.

When Emma looked at the two bodyguards. They both looked guilty and depressed. Because they had to do this.

The pen that was already lying on the table, then Emma intended to pick it up.

"Let go of my hand! If my hand is still held like this, how can I sign it?"

Quickly, the two bodyguards let go of Emma's hand.

And now, Emma began to sign it. With trembling hands, she held the pen.

"Dad ... Mom ... I'm sorry, Emma has no other choice anymore ...," she whispered to herself.

Triumphant smiles were etched on Jovanka and Jennifer's faces. Jovanka immediately took the paper and her eyes lit up like she had just hit the jackpot.

"Quick, get her out of here. Don't let her bring her expensive things out. Let her be homeless out there!" Jovanka ordered her two bodyguards.

"Alright, Ma'am."

"You bitch! Damn it! You guys are thieves. Just watch me get my revenge!" Emma screamed at the top of her lungs as she was dragged out of there.

The servants stared at Emma who was treated like an animal, speechless as they looked at her with sad faces.

One of the maids who had taken care of Emma since she was a child ran over to her.

"Ms." She hugged Emma's body tightly while crying.

"Forgive me, Ms ... I couldn't do anything," she said softly.

"You stay here, watch their every move. And report to me. I will seek justice for all this."

"I don't accept you being treated like this."

"For anyone who comes near Emma ... I will fire them!" Jovanka's voice came back to Emma and the servants' ears.

One of the maid said, "This all belongs to Ms. Emma ... You have no right–"

"Oh, okay. You want to get fired?" Jennifer this time spoke in her arrogant tone as if she was entitled to everything in this house.

"Don't try to fire the servants here!" warned Emma. She knew that the servants here still needed money so they still had to work here.

"Therefore, hurry up and get out of here!"

"Fuck you!" she swore.

Emma started to wake up her body that was lying on the floor. Now she began to walk towards the outside of Adwlyn's residence which had now been taken over by the bitch.

"I will take revenge on you two. Just watch!" Before she stepped out of there. Emma gave a warning as she spat in Jennifer's face.

"Damn Emma!" shouted Jennifer, disgusted to have her cheek spat on.

"Quick, tell her to leave!" Jovanka ordered her two bodyguards again feeling annoyed that Emma's guts were so big.

"Don't touch my hand again. I can't stand the sight of these two bitches either!" Having said that, Emma left there.

Passing by the security guards who looked down sadly as Emma passed by.

However, one of the waiters ran back towards Emma. When Emma was already right in front of the gate.

"Ms ... Here's the money for the room."

"Thank you." Emma had to accept it because she didn't bring anything from there. Other than her body, handphone, and the clothes she was wearing.

So, where would Emma go after this? Would she go to the Ravens' apartment?

***

"Please prepare a private jet. I will fly to New York right now!" said a man who had a model-like body. His beautiful brown eyes, as well as his perfectly symmetrical face, walked out of his office.

"Alright, Mr. Noah."

"Mr. Noah!" called his secretary as he frantically walked over to him.

"What's wrong?"

"Pigeon wants to talk to you!"

"Put me through!"

"Alright."

While walking, Noah started talking to the person on the other end of the line, where 'Pigeon' was the nickname of one of the investigative divisions in the company.

"There was a bombing at the Cambridge train station. And many people were injured and some even died. The culprit hasn't been found yet."

"Damn. I authorized you to go there. Bring another team to investigate who the culprit is."

"Are you coming, Mr?"

"No, I have to go to New York now. I have to attend my uncle's funeral."

"Alright. My condolences. I'll leave right away." After that, the phone disconnected.

Noah Basso had the highest position in one of England's most prestigious investigative agencies. His job was to investigate crimes that occurred in England.

He is now the number one person in England who is known for solving every major case in the country. He is also now one of the billionaires there. All the ladies are crazy about him!

So, what's the purpose of Noah going to New York? Well, he's going to the grave of the late Mr. Adwlyn, he knows Mr. Adwlyn well as he had an important role in Noah's life. Despite not being related by blood, Noah considered him his uncle.

Once on the plane, Noah relaxed his muscles and unconsciously shed tears over what had happened to Mr. Adwlyn.

Noah had only taken the time to come there because he had been so busy this past week.

"How's Emma?" Noah asked one of his bodyguards who had come with him to New York.

"Mr. Noah ... I just read in The New York Times that the Adwlyn Agency will be taken over completely by Mr. Adwlyn's new wife."

Hearing that, of course, left Noah stunned in disbelief. Then, what about Emma?

Noah immediately took over the iPad that his bodyguard was holding and read carefully.

His palms clenched into fists after reading the news. In the news there, it was explained that Emma Adwlyn voluntarily handed over her family company to her stepmother.

How impossible!

"Nonsense. There's no way Emma would do this!"

"Shit. Please call the Adwlyn Agency, I'd like to request Emma's number!"

"Alright, Mr."

Noah gazed out the airplane window, where there was a beautiful view below.

He was really worried about Emma's fate. He remembered his childhood with Emma who was always together.

A few minutes later, the bodyguard informed Noah again.

"Ms. Emma is not at the Adwlyn residence."

"Damn. Where did she go? She couldn't have gone alone!"

Meanwhile, in New York City, many people were walking around, some looking at Emma with mixed views.

Moreover, the news about the Adwlyn Agency suddenly being taken over by Jovanka was now being discussed by the public.

Where would Emma go now? She didn't want to waste her money by ordering a taxi, so she chose to walk to the Ravens' apartment.

Walking for an hour, she was exhausted. A beautiful princess who usually never walked far, let alone without bodyguards, was different now!

Emma let out a long sigh as she arrived in front of Ravens' apartment. And she pressed the door pin of the Ravens' apartment.

The door opened and Emma walked right in. Her cell phone was out of credit, so she didn't call Ravens at all if Emma was at Ravens' apartment, because she thought Ravens still hadn't returned to New York.

She plopped down on the couch. Relaxing her legs that had walked quite a distance.

Staring up at the roof, Emma burst into tears again. How could she not, this was something she had never imagined before.

"Ah! Hurry up, faster!"

Emma's sharp ears could hear sighing sounds from the second floor.

Was there someone other than her in the Ravens' apartment? Was it the Ravens' best friend? However, the Ravens had never permitted anyone other than Emma to enter his apartment.

Feeling curious, Emma began to walk slowly up the stairs to the second floor.

Unfortunately, the sighing sound was getting louder. Emma's heart was in turmoil. However, Emma still denied that it wasn't Ravens' voice. Perhaps unbeknownst to her, Ravens had permitted his friend to enter his apartment.

"Quick, turn around!" someone said from inside the room.

Oh My Goodness. Emma recognized that voice well. It was exactly like the Ravens' voice!

Emma's heart raced. With her anger already peaked, Emma quickly broke down the door to the Ravens' room.

Emma was shocked to see a scene in front of her that she had never imagined before.

"What the hell! Ravens ... Argh, fuck! Why are you–" Emma's body felt like it was going out of control. Her eyes heated up, her heart like being stabbed by nails.

"Emma, why are you here?" Ravens walked naked towards Emma with a panicked face because he had been caught having sex with another woman.

Who was that woman?

"Oh so now you two are a couple. Really? You two are conspiring to take me down?"

"Damn it. I was fooled all along!"

"Jennifer, congratulations on getting the man of your dreams. Right? Go ahead and fuck!"

Yes, her stepsister, oh no! That bitch somehow managed to fuck her future fiancé.

"Oh yeah, if I'm being honest, I feel unsatisfied when I fuck you. Because yours is so small!" As she said this, Emma picked up a nearby object and threw it right at Ravens until the man screamed in pain.

She also threw a nearby iron right into Jennifer's face.

"Fuck you both. Go to hell together!"

Emma slammed the door and ran out of Ravens' apartment.

She burst into tears. Ravens had betrayed her. Even though she had tried to protect him from Jovanka.

If it was like this, where would Emma go after this? Where will she live, considering the Ravens is no longer her main goal?

After much thought during the flight, Noah now decided to go straight to Mr. Adwlyn's grave, not wanting to show himself to the public.

Noah had an idea to get back at Jovanka and Jennifer for what they had done to the Adwlyn family.

However, Noah's steps stopped when he saw a woman who was hugging Mr. Adwlyn's grave in a curled-up position and her whole body was shaking from crying.

Was it Emma? Noah didn't go straight to Emma, he left her alone as she seemed to be telling a story at her father's grave.

"Why did they all have the heart, Dad? Emma shouldn't have agreed to your marriage right away! Emma should have investigated their family background first! Aaaaa, I'm sorry, Emma can't defend the house and even the company ...."

Emma's cries at that time sounded very painful, she was like a person who no longer had a life.

Even more stupidly, Emma gave up all of her family's assets because she didn't want the Ravens to be fired. But now, that damn man had betrayed her by cheating on her with her stepsister!

No, no, no ... No, she was a bitch, Emma didn't want to think of her as a stepsister!

"Emma wants to come with you!"

Suddenly, Emma took something out of her shirt pocket, in which there was a bottle of drink that seemed to be poison.

Noah, who was looking at it from a distance, squinted his eyes to get a better look at what drink was in Emma's hand.

When he read the brand, Noah immediately realized and opened his eyes. Emma was about to take a sip of the drink. But quickly, Noah ran over and took over the bottle in Emma's hand.

"Who are you?" Emma was also surprised to see someone who didn't know where he came from now beside her.

"You want to drink this poison? Emma, oh My Goodness ... If you give up now, your parents will feel sad, because you can't take back what should be yours!" Without answering Emma's question, Noah scolded her instead.

Fortunately, Noah was there. What would have happened if he hadn't been there and Emma had drunk the drink and died of convulsions after drinking it?

"Who are you?" asked Emma again in annoyance that Noah didn't answer her question.

No wonder why Emma didn't recognize Noah's face. It was because the two of them had not seen each other for a long time. Noah left New York when he was 15 years old. What's more, Noah was now wearing sunglasses.

Not because Mr. Adwlyn threw them away. Rather, Mr. Adwlyn was giving Noah a path to where he would go in the future.

"I'm Noah," he replied with a sigh and took off his sunglasses.

"Noah?" Emma wrinkled her forehead. Because she still needed to think, the name sounded familiar but Emma didn't remember it.

The next second, Emma's reaction was very happy, and hugged Noah without being asked.

"I miss you, Noah! Why don't you ever come here anymore?"

Being hugged like that by Emma, Noah who used to admire the brunette woman, his heart beat faster at this time.

He returned Emma's hug right in front of Mr. Adwlyn's grave and next to it, Mrs. Adwlyn's grave.

"I'm sorry, Emma ... I came too late. I already know the news is circulating right now."

Emma nodded her head. Her heart now felt calmer when she met Noah.

"We'll talk about this elsewhere. But let me talk to your father first," Noah said.

Then, Emma, who understood, immediately made room for Noah to speak at Mr. Adwlyn's grave. She knew that when they were kids, Noah was very close to Mr. Adwlyn.

"You wait in the car first," Noah ordered.

Emma had no idea what Noah was talking about, as she was already in the car. She leaned her head against the head of the seat, not realizing that Emma had fallen asleep because she had cried so much today that she was exhausted.

Twenty minutes passed, and Noah, who had poured out his heart to Mr. and Mrs. Adwlyn, was now walking away from their grave.

It was as if while he was there, Noah got the message that he had to look after Emma.

How could he look after her? While Noah lives in London. Would he have to take Emma to London and leave New York?

As one of his hands was about to open the car door, Noah was immediately treated to the sight of Emma asleep in the seat.

The weather in New York today was quite cold. Therefore, Noah took the blanket that was in the back. He covered Emma's body so she wouldn't get cold again.

Many times it made Noah draw a smile on his face.

Poor Emma. That's what Noah was thinking at the moment. He got into the car and sat on the seat next to Emma.

The car was started by the driver. The car was going to drive to one of the hotels here, booking a room for one day only. Noah couldn't stay here for long, as he had work to do that he couldn't leave.

Unfortunately, when he arrived at the hotel, there was only one room left. Though he wanted to book 2 rooms, of course, one for him and one for Emma.

"It's okay, you wouldn't dare mess with me anyway, right?" Emma, who was too lazy to think anymore, immediately took the room key from Noah's hand and walked towards the elevator to the hotel room.

But what about Noah? Would he be able to stand being in the same room as Emma?

It was a bad idea to be in the same room with Noah. Just as Emma was about to step into the kitchen, which was close to the bathroom, Noah came out and was just cleaning up.

Emma let out a small scream while turning her face the other way. Actually, at that moment, Noah was wearing a towel wrapped around his waist, but it was his chest that made Emma misfocus!

"Sorry, I didn't know you were here." Instead of Emma apologizing, it was Noah who said it first.

Honestly, Noah was embarrassed. He walked straight to his room, locked the door, and let out a long sigh.

Noah had to find a way out, how to solve this Emma problem.

Later that evening, Emma and Noah sat on the sofa, both of them discussing something important.

"What do you want to do for the two of them?" Noah asked.

"I want to get everything I have back!" Emma replied.

"Revenge?"

Emma looked at Noah with a meaningful gaze. "Are you willing to help me?"

"Of course, I will repay the Adwlyn family for their kindness to me."

"Listen Emma, but I have work in London and can't be gone for long, I have two options for you," Noah said with a very serious look on his face.

"What are they?"

"First, if you can do it without me, you can go on a revenge mission here, but of course, I'll still monitor your every progress. And secondly, if you want to come with me to London, we will together build a revenge strategy from there. I already have an idea of how to get back at them."

"Which one do you want? Option one or option two?" asked Noah after explaining to Emma.

The brunette woman was silent, thinking about it.

"Noah, can't you move here?"

"I can't, Emma. I have an important job there for the country."

However, Emma couldn't live alone. She had never lived alone in her life.

If she chose the second option, would she be able to leave all her memories in New York behind?

"Alright, I choose to come with you. Then, tell me what your plan is?"

"Are you sure?" Now why was Noah the one doubting Emma?

"Of course. Maybe by leaving New York for a while, I can reorganize my life."

Noah smiled at that, as Emma's mature nature slowly began to grow.

"So here's the plan, first you have to delete all your social media accounts, give your college a letter of resignation and don't tell your college friends. So that they all feel confused when you suddenly disappear from New York."

"You have to make Jovanka and Jennifer, and much your boyfriend–"

"My ex!" corrected Emma quickly.

"Well, they won't receive any news from you. Because I'm sure as hell, they must be monitoring your every move, because they're afraid you're a threat to them."

"Then, how do I give them my passport when I go to the airport?"

"For that matter, take it easy. I have contacts at the airport here, and they won't divulge if you have a flight to London."

"As for further developments, we'll talk when we get to London. Now, all you have to do is send a letter of resignation to your college and delete all your social media." While saying this, Noah handed Emma a cell phone.

"My phone?" Emma asked.

"If you keep using your cell phone, Jovanka will track you."

Noah was certain that Jovanka had tracked Emma's cell phone, so Emma would have to change her phone.

"But there are so many memories on this phone," Emma said with a sad face.

"Any photos or videos that are on your phone, send them to my laptop. This laptop will be yours. I'm sorry I forgot to buy a new one for you because I didn't think of it. And this is my spare laptop, not the main laptop for work. So you can have it now."

"Thanks, Noah. I don't know how I could live without you."

Many times, Emma suddenly hugged Noah. She was very touched, and finally, someone was willing to accompany and support her.

Because what Emma needed right now was support.

"I will also do anything to help you, Noah. Think of it as returning the favor."

So, how will it go, what revenge mission will Emma undertake for Jovanka and Jennifer?

***

"How is it going, has the perpetrator been caught?"

Having just arrived in London at 7.30 am, Noah headed straight to the office to get an update on the bombing that happened two days ago.

"The perpetrator got away, Mr," his secretary replied–Zeke.

"Oh my, how did he get away?" Hearing the news made Noah's head spin.

"Take me to the hospital where the patient is being treated!" Noah ordered.

"Mr, let me, you just got back–"

"I can't delay work! Quick, take me!"

No matter what the reason was at the time, Noah wanted to scream in anger that they couldn't find the culprit. Because when Noah was in the field, he could usually find the culprit.

"Yes, Mr."

Noah came out of the office, and many of the employees there greeted him and smiled kindly because they didn't expect Noah to come this early, as he had just flown to New York yesterday.

What exactly was Noah's body made of? Why did he never feel tired?

"Oh yeah, please send the maid who usually cleans my penthouse to my residence, to accompany Emma," Noah said, suddenly stopping his steps as he remembered Emma who was now in his penthouse.

Noah did not have a maid in his house, because since childhood he did not feel comfortable living with strangers, occasionally if the house looked messy, Noah called the maid who used to clean his house.

"You brought her here, Mr?" asked Zeke, who knew who Emma was.

"Yeah, right now Emma is a mess. The only way is for me to bring her here," Noah replied.

Zeke was the only one who knew Noah's story. He nodded in understanding at Noah's command.

The two of them continued their journey by car. Noah deliberately wanted Zeke to drive the car, but he also asked some of the bodyguards in the office to follow behind.

"Emma's situation is chaotic, all I can think about right now is that she can't be lonely. She needs someone to lift her spirits," Noah opened the conversation with Zeke in the car.

"Do you want to help her get revenge?" asked Zeke, who had somehow managed to read Noah's mind.

"You know me very well, Zake." Noah smiled meaningfully.

"I've already thought of a plan to get back at them. You will find out about Jovanka's background," Noah ordered again.

Perhaps if the Adwlyn family had been in London, Noah would have taken matters into his own hands and prosecuted Jovanka and her daughter. However, since that was not his territory, they were in a different country, so Noah had to think of another way to get revenge on the two of them.

Thirty minutes passed, and now the car had pulled into the hospital parking lot.

When Noah got out of the car, the security guards there immediately bowed their heads obediently because they all knew who Noah Basso was.

"Please show me the room of the patient who was the victim of the explosion at the station yesterday," Noah said to one of the security guards.

The security guard immediately walked forward to show the room where the patient was being treated.

One of the doctors approached him and greeted, "Good morning, Mr. Noah ...."

"How are they doing? There are no more victims, right?" asked Noah, without replying to the doctor's greeting.

"None so far, Mr."

"So far? Is there a possibility of more victims?"

"There is one patient, a boy who is still in ICU, after surgery, his sternum was fractured. The patient did have a history of lung disease, but it was cured one year ago. And now, when his sternum is fractured, he has difficulty breathing again," the doctor explained.

"What about his family?"

"One of the victims who died was his mother."

"Oh, God." Noah rubbed his face roughly, for some reason he immediately remembered his childhood, living alone because both his parents died in a car accident.

"I want to see it later, now I want to meet the patients who have recovered enough, I want to ask them something," Noah pleaded.

"All right, Mr, come with me." The doctor walked over to one of the patients who had been traumatized by the bombing. She was already feeling better.

The doctor seemed to be chatting with the female patient, and soon after, the doctor gave Noah the code to approach the female patient. As usual, Zake followed Noah's instructions.

"Good morning, I'm Noah, from IAE," he introduced himself, showing his business and company cards around his neck.

IAE stands for Intelligence Agency of England. Everyone in England knows how this government company works.

"I'd like to ask you some questions about the chronology of the bombing at Cambridge station yesterday."

The patient simply nodded her head. A sign that she agreed and didn't mind at all.

"That afternoon, I had just returned from college and we all boarded the train without suspicion. Then, suddenly, halfway through the journey, one of the passengers screamed because he had accidentally seen a bomb that had been placed under a passenger seat. The situation was very chaotic, as it was written that the bomb would explode within 5 minutes. Since the train couldn't stop suddenly, we tried to run to other cars, some broke the windows and some tried to open the train doors. When there were only 2 minutes left, the passengers didn't care about getting hurt, they tried to get out through the windows that had a lot of glass on the sides. So did I, who jumped straight through the window. My hand was scratched by broken glass and I was hit by a rock when I jumped. After that, I don't know what else happened inside the train, because my body hurt when I hit the rock. All I know is that shortly after I got out, the bomb exploded and destroyed several train cars," the female patient explained at length.

"Didn't you see anyone acting strangely?"

At first, the female patient shook her head, but a few seconds later she said, "I saw from the crowd of people who were already at the site, that one man was wearing a black hat and a black jacket."

"What about his face?"

"Not too clear. However, his face looked very strange. Like wearing a mask."

As the woman explained, Zeke wrote down important information about the chronology of events.

"Well, thank you for taking the time to be interviewed by me."

Noah and Zeke said goodbye to the female patient, but suddenly the female patient spoke back to him, "Please save the little boy in the ICU. I was with him when the bombing happened. He's a poor boy."

So, what would Noah have done for that poor child? Will his life be saved?

***

"The food is ready!" Not knowing where to get the idea from, a princess like Emma Adwlyn had been struggling in the kitchen for the past two hours.

Knowing that Noah would arrive at 7 pm, Emma had the idea to cook for him.

"Emma, can you cook?" asked a very surprised Noah.

"Of course, it's not difficult to cook," Emma replied proudly.

"Where did you learn that?"

"YouTube!" replied Emma confidently.

"Well, thank you. I'll eat when I'm done showering," said Noah who certainly appreciated Emma's cooking, even though he had already had dinner with Zeke last night.

While waiting for Noah to bathe, Emma sat on the dining chair, her head resting on the head of the chair. Staring at the white roof.

The roof didn't look white to Emma now, as she felt that her whole life had turned gloomy since her father's death.

"Dad ... Mom ... Emma misses you, guys. What should Emma do now? I can't do anything without you," she whispered to herself.

Tears welled up in her eyes, but Emma tried not to cry. Her heart was so tight that she remembered how evil Jovanka and Jennifer were.

Finally, unable to hold back her tears any longer, they slid freely down Emma's cheeks. She burst into tears.

Worried that Noah would see her again while she was crying, Emma hurriedly walked to the bathroom to wash her face so it wouldn't look like she was crying.

However, just as she was about to walk into the bathroom, she screamed.

"Aaaaaaa!" She covered her eyes with the palms of her hands.

What exactly did Emma see? Did she see a ghost or a beast?

"Geez, Emma ... Why did you go to the bathroom?"

That's right, what Emma saw was Noah. Somehow, the handsome shirtless man had just come out of the bathroom.

Over and over, Emma and Noah accidentally met when Noah had just come out of the bathroom.

"I thought you took a shower in the bathroom inside your room!"

"Right!" Noah immediately tapped his forehead, he still felt that if he lived alone in this penthouse, he was free to choose to take a shower in the bathroom upstairs or downstairs.

However, when Noah and Emma's eyes met, Noah was immediately worried to see Emma's eyes puffy.

"Did you just cry again?" asked Noah.

Hearing that question, Emma immediately turned her face in another direction.

She failed to go to the bathroom to wash her face so that Noah wouldn't realize that she had just cried.

"Noah, when are we doing the revenge plan? I don't want to see the two of them happy on top of all the money my parents have made over the years."

"I plan to discuss it tonight, after dinner. How about it?"

"Very well."

Fifteen minutes later, with Noah dressed in his casual clothes, he descended the stairs to the dining room. There was already Emma waiting for him.

Honestly, Noah was still wondering why Emma was at his residence. Noah used to always look at Emma from a distance as a child and now the beautiful woman was in his Penthouse.

"I've prepared this for you!" Emma smiled as she showed Noah her neat teeth.

She had cooked spaghetti because it was the only food she found easy to cook.

Noah immediately scooped up the spaghetti and put it in his mouth.

He hadn't chewed it yet but it already tasted salty in his mouth.

His eyes glanced at Emma who was watching him, waiting for Noah's reaction to his cooking.

"How is it, good?" Emma asked. Seeing Noah's reaction, he just smiled while chewing.

"It's good, but I think you used too much salt, huh?"

"Oh yeah, I forgot, she said to add salt to taste, I thought it wouldn't be too much."

"That's okay, I think for your first time cooking, it's not too bad."

"Then it's good, right?"

Noah nodded his head reluctantly.

"Well, my food is here!" exclaimed Emma happily, hearing the bell outside the door.

"Your food?"

"Yeah, I ordered food from the restaurant!"

"So you don't intend to eat this spaghetti?"

"No, I'm afraid you won't be full if you share with me, so I'd rather give in."

Be patient Noah, she's Emma Adwlyn. Hold your temper!

After finishing dinner, Noah, who was still groggy from finishing a plate of spaghetti that tasted very salty, now Noah and Emma were in the living room, to talk about something important.

"I want you to stay here for three months," Noah said.

"So that everyone in New York forgets you exist, if you come too soon, it won't be fun!" he continues.

"Indeed, what's your plan? I thought we'd get back at them from a distance."

"While we're here, we're looking for information on how to defeat the two of them first."

"I just requested information from an acquaintance who has a reliable informant. He said that your father's step-wife has a very bad history in Qatar. The day after tomorrow, the two of us will fly to Qatar," Noah said.

"Let them smile happily now before we drop a time bomb on them," he added.

Speaking of bombs, Noah suddenly remembered a poor boy who was a victim of the Cambridge station bombing.

"Oh yeah, I want to adopt a little brother."

"Adopt? Who would you adopt?"

"Mr. Noah, are you sure?" asked Zeke, who was quite surprised by Noah's decision to adopt the boy.

"He reminds me of my childhood. Besides, he can be a friend to keep Emma company while she's here."

At that moment, Noah was reading the file Zeke had given him. In between his work, he also told Zeke about his intentions.

"The day after tomorrow, I'll go to the hospital again to see how the boy's health is progressing," Noah said again.

Zeke just nodded his head as if it was Noah's decision.

"So, what's on today's schedule?" asked Noah.

"Based on the testimony of one of the passengers yesterday, regarding the characteristics of the suspicious person there, I found one of the places where their base is located, Mr." Zeke showed his iPad screen, where there was evidence that he was sure wouldn't be wrong.

"Alright, we'll head there in thirty minutes."

"Understood, Mr." Zeke walked out of Noah's office. And now Noah felt conflicted about something.

Earlier when he had left for work, he had seen no sign that Emma was awake. Was she awake or not, Noah wondered. Should he call Emma?

Unable to stop worrying about Emma, Noah decided to call her.

["Hello, Emma ... Am I disturbing you?"] Emma picked up her phone, which meant that the beautiful woman was awake.

["I've been up for a while."]

["Look, Emma, tomorrow we will fly to Qatar and start investigating everything about their crimes. I swear I will repay them, according to what they did to you. Even more!"]

The phone call didn't last long as Noah had to leave soon. Fortunately, Emma did as Noah said.

"Is everything ready, Mr?" Suddenly, Zeke came knocking on the open door of his office and asked a question.

Noah nodded his head and walked away. Meanwhile, Zeke picked up Noah's briefcase.

They were both ready with the gun tucked into the back pocket of his pants, which was of course covered by his suit.

"What's the latest today?" asked Noah, when they were both on their way.

"Everything about you, Mr ... Take a look." Zeke handed over his iPad which displayed the day's news in London.

[Mr. Noah went down to see the victims at Cambridge station]

[One of the patients said that Mr. Noah was a very nice person. She even fell in love with him at first sight].

While reading the title of one of the articles, Noah looked at Zeke with a shrug.

Then, his eyes rounded as he read one of the articles that caught his attention.

[Is there a connection between the bombing that took place at Cambridge station two days ago and the shooting incident in Qatar?]

"Who quoted the news?" asked Noah curiously.

"Larissa Raquel. She is one of the most controversial journalists in the news, but many readers like her articles."

"Please call her, I want to talk to her," Noah ordered.

Thirty-five minutes later, they arrived at Zeke's suspected base.

The team at the back was also ready, to immediately surround the base with the pistols already in their hands.

"Come on." Noah looked to Zeke for the code.

On the count of three, they both break down the door and you know what Noah sees there!

There were several men with tattoos on their bodies. They were all surprised by the presence of Noah and his team.

"We're from IAE, raise your hands!" Noah ordered.

"We didn't do anything!" One of them spoke up.

"If you want to talk, do it in the interrogation room!"

They all instantly trembled at the sight of Noah and even Noah's voice scared them.

"Take them to the car. I'll check the back!" Noah said, walking carefully with the gun still in his hand.

When he opened the kitchen door, he saw someone trying to escape.

"Stop or I'll shoot you!" Noah yelled.

"Damn it!" Noah cursed and ran because the person didn't listen to his orders.

Annoyed that the man was still trying to escape, Noah shot him.

The shot echoed so loudly that Zeke rushed over to him.

"Mr. Noah, are you okay?"

Zeke's eyes fell on the man screaming in pain. Noah had shot him. But, not wanting to make the man die on the spot since Noah needed their testimony, he shot him in the thigh only.

"Call an ambulance now. And you, wait for him while he's in the operating room."

"Alright, Mr." Zeke shook his head at Noah for taking it so casually, even though he had just shot someone.

That's why Noah could be where he is now because of his calmness and ingenuity at work.

Meanwhile, Noah was going back to the company to listen to the interrogation of the tattooed men.

Thirty minutes later ...

Noah stared at the interrogation room with his arms folded across his chest. The two detectives were interrogating one of them.

"So, what was your motive for causing trouble at Cambridge station?" one of the detectives asked.

"We were just told ... I'll bet that I didn't know anything!"

"By whom?"

There was no answer from the tattooed man, making a curious Noah who was observing him from outside.

"I can't say."

"Well, then we'll put you away for life because you've taken a life."

"No! Please, help me–"

"Then, explain in detail!"

"Sir Lion."

"Sir Lion? Stop playing around, I don't want to listen–"

"Yes, we do know Sir Lion. However, we never met him in person. We only take orders and get paid."

"What else do you know about Sir Lion?"

"He's ... He is in Qatar. But I don't know what he does, but he's not a local. He's an British man who has business there."

Hearing the country of Qatar mentioned, Noah immediately thought of Emma, where they would both be flying to Qatar tomorrow.

Would he investigate the man named Sir Lion also tomorrow when he went to Qatar?

***

10:00 am, Qatar time.

Noah's private jet had just landed at the international airport in Qatar.

As per Noah's request, Emma had to wear sunglasses and a black hat so that no one would see her. Although the people of Qatar did not recognize Emma, Noah was just worried that some of Jovanka's acquaintances here would report her to his father's step-wife.

"So, we're going straight to the location?" Emma asked.

"Mmmh, yeah since we don't have much time here. You don't mind right?"

"Of course not." Emma walked first to get into the car that would take them to their destination.

There wasn't much conversation in the car, Emma was more quiet than usual.

The car would take them to a family that used to be a businessman in Qatar but was now bankrupt.

They hoped that they would return home with important information instead of empty-handed.

As it turned out, it wasn't too far and the car was parked in a modest house.

"Are you the woman who sent me that text message?" Noah asked.

Emma's eyebrows knitted together, having absolutely no idea if Noah had ever communicated with that woman.

"Yes, Mr, this is my house and I was one of the former servants of the late Mr. Ahmed. However, when Mr. Noah's friend wanted to dig up information regarding Ms. Jovanka, I was immediately interested in uncovering it."

"But before that, I would like to introduce Mrs. Jovanka's daughter first."

"Her daughter? Isn't her daughter named Jennifer?" asked a surprised Emma.

The maid shook her head and excused herself for a moment to summon a little girl who was said to be Jovanka's daughter.

Then, out came one of the beautiful princesses with braided hair. She looked shy.

"Hello, Good Morning, Beautiful," Emma greeted the little girl.

The little girl just lowered her face. Then, Noah immediately asked the maid for an explanation.

"She is the daughter of Jovanka and the late Mr. Ahmed. Before Mr. Ahmed passed away, he left behind a one-year-old daughter."

"What caused Mr. Ahmed to pass away?" asked Emma.

"He had a plane crash while on a business trip to Canada."

Hearing this, Emma and Noah looked at each other. Why was the chronology of his death the same as Mr. Adwlyn's?

"When Mr. Ahmed was one month dead, Mrs. Jovanka suddenly did something heinous. She chased away the servants including her flesh and blood. Mr. Ahmed himself was an orphan so if he died, all his property would go to his wife and daughter. However, at that time, with her evil ways, Mrs. Jovanka did not care about her daughter. And now she was abandoned. However, recently I heard that Mrs. Jovanka has become the heiress of a company in New York ...."

"Yes, and it's my family's company," Emma replied.

"I'm sorry about that. Mrs. Jovanka will never come to her senses."

Hearing this, Emma's emotions boiled over. Noah, who realized this, immediately held one of Emma's hands to calm her down.

""What else do you know about Jovanka?"

"She's involved with one of the mafia, but I don't know for sure."

"Then, if I may, I'd like to prolong this matter again since something similar happened to Emma. However, I ask you not to tell anyone that we both came here," Noah said.

"Of course, I won't tell anyone. I also want you to represent us to take revenge on that vile woman!"

The information provided by the maid was very useful. It made Noah and Emma get a little bright spot.

"Jovanka has a friend who has powers. I wonder if she could do such a heinous thing on her own," Emma said as the two of them returned to the car.

"Plane crashed ...." Noah was thinking about something when he suddenly remembered something and asked Emma, "has there been any update on the plane Mr. Adwlyn was on, what caused it to crash?"

"On the news, they said that it was caused by strong turbulence," Emma replied.

"However, I also read in one of the articles that the plane crashed not because of turbulence, but because it exploded."

"Exploded? Who was carrying a bomb?"

"A bomb? Oh My God!" Both of Noah's hands immediately grabbed his head.

"Damn. I'm getting suspicious!" Noah said again.

"Please take us to this address!" Noah ordered the driver.

"Yes, Mr."

Emma had no idea where the car was going this time. Emma thought they were flying back after getting the information from the maid.

An hour into the journey, the car stopped at a car dealership.

"You want to buy a car?" asked Emma as she read where they were now.

"Come on, get out. I want to look for something here." Noah didn't say what he was here for.

To Emma's surprise, Noah suddenly wrapped his arms around Emma's waist as if Emma was his.

"Welcome, Sir ... How can we help you?" said one of the employees at the car dealership.

"My wife, she'd like to have a look at the cars here," Noah said as he glanced at Emma with a bright smile without hesitation.

Now Emma understood that they were putting on a show.

"Honey, this looks great!" Emma brought her body closer to Noah's to make their acting as husband and wife look natural.

"You want that one?" asked Noah.

"Wait, come with me, please explain ...." Emma gave Noah the code to walk around the car dealership while Emma asked the two employees to explain about one of the cars there.

Not wanting to waste time, Noah immediately tried to get into the cashier's place which happened to be that afternoon there were no cashier guards other than the two employees.

Noah turned off the CCTV there so as not to know if Noah was looking for something there.

He also did not forget to install a bug in one of the places that would not be known by them, but still inside the car dealership of course.

Then, he also brought one of the small items there, the item had an inscription. Maybe it could help Noah in his search for the case.

"How's it going, Honey?" asked Noah as he walked back towards Emma.

"Mmmh looks like this isn't the car I wanted," Emma said with a disappointed look on her face.

"Ouch, I'm dizzy, Baby! I think I'm exhausted. Come on, I want to rest soon." Suddenly, Emma complained of dizziness and brought her body closer to Noah's.

"Forgive me to hear that my wife is suddenly sick. Thank you for serving us so well," Noah whispered to the two employees who were already annoyed at the two of them for not getting a car.

Hurrying, Noah and Emma got into the car. While in the car, they laughed together because of her actions.

"Mmmh, want to go to the bar first after this? Since we've worked so hard today, I think we need something to quench our thirst and I've booked a hotel, I guess we can go home tomorrow," Noah suggested, even though their original intention was to return to London today.

"Okay."

Suddenly, a bar was added to their list, and they were both seated on barstools. With two bottles of champagne already standing upright on the bar counter.

"Damn guy! I was nice to him, but he betrayed me!" cursed Emma, who was sipping champagne straight from the bottle. Noah, who was watching her, could only remain silent while shaking his head.

The two of them were drunk together. Because the activities they had done today were tiring.

However, the most drunk one there was Emma.

"If only I had forbidden my father from marrying that demon! Aaaaa it's all my fault!"

Emma's mood at that moment changed, just now she was cursing her ex-fiancé as well as her father's step-wife, and now she was crying because she blamed herself.

Noah desperately wanted to hug Emma. He immediately took Emma into his arms.

"Honestly, I miss our childhood, Emma. I used to admire you so much," Noah whispered, he spoke like that because he knew Emma wouldn't remember him tomorrow.

Then, Emma's head that had been resting on Noah's chest, now the beautiful woman looked up at Noah. So they were very close.

"Mmmh, you're so handsome!" All of a sudden, Emma was complimenting Noah. Her naughty hand was holding Noah's lips.

Noah's heart skipped a beat. They both looked at each other. Until both of them got carried away and brought their lips closer together.

Noah was now the same, already under the influence of alcohol so he couldn't help himself a little.

And there was a pretty intense kiss. Emma wrapped her arms around Noah's neck.

The kiss became so intense that Noah carried Emma's bridal style to one of the VVIP rooms in the bar.

So, what happens next? What will happen in the morning, if they both realize what they've done?

***

"Are you serious, you haven't heard from Emma at all?" asked Jovanka, who looked confused because she hadn't heard from Emma.

"No, I've even tried contacting all her social media, she's not active at all," replied one of her bodyguards.

"Damn. Where did she go?"

Why was Jovanka suddenly on edge? Shouldn't she be happy that Emma was no longer bothering her?

The news of Emma's sudden disappearance three months ago shocked the public in New York, there were several witnesses who last saw Emma walking around in a state of disarray. They assumed that Emma was planning to commit suicide at the time.

Now the police are looking for Emma and if there is no news at all within a month, they assume that Emma has died by suicide. Yeah, Jovanka has rules like that.

People in New York were even fed up with Jovanka suddenly taking Emma's property.

Jovanka chose to sip her whiskey, feeling dizzy from Emma's sudden departure. She had to stay alert, Emma could be a threat to her!

Twenty minutes later ....

"Forgive me, to interrupt you for a moment, Mrs ... Mmh, I've been trying to track Ms. Emma's cell phone, but I can't find anything, I think she turned it off on purpose so no one would find her body," said one of the bodyguards Jovanka had sent to find out Emma's whereabouts.

"That means we don't have to worry about her anymore since she's gone? Hahahaha! I'm now free and all of Adwlyn's property is mine!"

Jovanka burst out laughing because she was so happy to hear the news.

Meanwhile in London

"What about them, have they all confessed?" asked Noah, who had overslept on his way to work because he had just spent the night making plans with Emma, so he slept too late.

"Yeah, Mr, they finally confessed but they never saw Sir Lion in person," Zeke replied.

"Did the IT team find anything with the flash disk?" Noah asked.

"Obviously."

"Alright, I'll be there later. I want to take care of these little rats first," said Noah as he walked into the interrogation room.

They had been here for almost three months, but none of them had dared to speak. And now, one of them dared to speak up about the bombing that took place at Cambridge station two months ago.

"Mr. Noah, if I confess, will I be released immediately?" one of the defendants asked with a frown.

"It depends on how big a crime you committed." Noah put the file on the table.

"So, what do you know about Sir Lion's illicit business?" Noah asked, "remember, I won't take no for an answer!" he warned.

"All I know is that he runs an illicit business like drug trafficking. He won't get caught because he's powerful enough. Anyone who goes against him will die," the defendant said.

"Wow, he seems like a pretty scary guy."

"But I'm not scared at all," continued Noah who knew no fear.

"Why are you keeping quiet? Go on!" grumbled Noah as he looked at the defendant who was scratching the back of his neck.

"I don't know what his motive was for wanting to bomb the Cambridge station, but one thing I do know is that, having failed in that mission, he would do the same thing but this time in a different place."

"Damn. Where?"

"I don't know, Mr, I swear. I'm just a paid errand boy."

Noah let out an exasperated sigh and the next second he said, "Are you going to obey me?"

"I want you to be my spy!"

"Go back to your boss who recruited you to work with Sir Lion. And tell him that you want to work there again. Don't ever mention our names!"

"If you dare to betray us, the team watching you will shoot you mercilessly! They'll even kidnap your two daughters!"

"Mr. Noah ... How did you know that I–"

"Just do as I say! You will follow Zeke's instructions. I don't care if you betray me or not, because we, the members of the IAE, will still monitor you, even your two daughters. You will see!" After saying that, Noah got up from his chair.

"Take care of him! As for the other two defendants, put them back in their cells. If they still won't confess, blindfold them with a black cloth and handcuff them!" Noah ordered.

The officers nodded their heads as if they understood Noah's order.

Then, he immediately headed to the IT team's room.

"What information did you get?" Noah asked in a flat tone.

"Well, Mr, we got information about Mr. Lion's background and weaknesses."

"Holly shit!"

What had Noah just seen that surprised him so much? Was the information so valuable to him?

**

"Emma," Noah called.

During the journey from Qatar to London, neither Noah nor Emma spoke as much as before. Because the events of that night were still haunting both of their minds.

Emma and Noah, having sex. However, Emma did not blame Noah, because they were both drunk.

"Oh yeah, I'm going with Jenred to the park," Emma said, speaking to Noah who was enjoying a snack in the television room.

Jenred was the little boy who was in the ICU at the time. True to his promise, Noah now adopts him as a younger brother. Jenred's presence adds to the warm impression there, which previously felt awkward between Noah and Emma, slowly starting to forget the events of that night.

But have they forgotten what happened that night? Or are they just pretending?

"I'm coming!" Noah answered immediately.

"Wow, you just got off work, Noah."

"I was worried that someone had kidnapped you."

"Are you serious? For God's sake, I'm an adult. Jenred is safe with me."

"Mmmh, this morning, I got a report that a child is missing."

"Whatever. Come on, Jenred!" Annoyed that Noah still thought that Emma was her father's little daughter, who couldn't do anything about it.

The three of them walked towards the park that happened to be close to the penthouse. That night, there would be a show near the park. Emma and Jenred were very curious to see it.

Many people were already getting ready to watch the show. There were so many people, that the distance between Emma, Noah and Jenred was so close, they were crammed together.

Noah was in the center, and he accidentally grabbed Emma's arm.

As their fingers intertwined, Noah was instantly reminded of the night before. Where Noah had enjoyed playing with Emma.

Two hours later, the event was over. And people were rushing home.

"Mr. Noah?" Someone suddenly greeted Noah. The three of them simultaneously turned their eyes toward the back.

"Hi, Grace! Good to see you again. How are you?"

"I'm fine. I'm on vacation here."

"Come on, let's chat at a restaurant!" Since Noah hadn't seen his former coworker in a long time, he took her to eat at a nearby restaurant.

Emma and Jenred, who were hungry, followed him.

"So, how was New York?" asked Noah, looking excited. But a few seconds later, as he said New York, he remembered Emma.

"Oh, yeah, Emma, meet Grace, she works in New York now." Noah introduced Grace to Emma.

"Wait ... Wait, are you Ms. Emma Adwlyn?" asked Grace, who had just remembered when Noah mentioned Emma's name.

"You know me?" asked Emma.

"Of course. I work at the Adwlyn Agency now."

Hearing this, Emma's heart skipped a beat. How could everything have happened by chance?

"I just came in while Mrs. Jovanka was on duty," said Grace, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you."

"No, it wasn't your fault. So, how is New York now?" asked Emma.

"People are now conspiring about your sudden disappearance. And Mrs. Jovanka, already considers you mmmhhh ... Dead."

Grace expected Emma's reaction to be sad. However, it was far beyond her expectations. Emma smiled happily and looked at Noah.

"Did you guys plan this?" Grace asked.

Noah explained to Grace about what they were planning. Why did Noah trust Grace so much? It could be that Grace was now part of Jovanka.

"Do you want to help us?" Noah asked when he had just finished explaining the chronology.

"Okay, so what can I do for you?"

Three Weeks Later ...

New York, July 12 2024

Emma Adwlyn had returned to New York with Grace yesterday to carry out her plan. Meanwhile, Noah was busy with his work, so he couldn't go to New York. In addition to work, he now had a new younger brother–Jenred.

"You're very charming, Ms. Emma," Grace complimented as Emma came out of her dressing room.

"Thank you for helping me," Emma exclaimed as she took Grace's hand.

Grace's presence helped Emma to speed up the realization of her revenge on Jovanka and Jennifer, oh, and let's not forget the Ravens.

"Of course, Ms, I want your rights back to you."

"I already told Mrs. Jovanka that there will be a new debut actress today. And I will be her manager," Grace said.

What exactly was Emma going to do?

They both got into the car to head to the Adwlyn Group. Emma couldn't wait to surprise them.

Earlier, she received a message from Noah, which was quite sweet to her.

[Emma, I believe you can face them. Because I know you're a great person. I'm proud that you've grown so much].

Reading the message from Noah, really made Emma smile to herself.

Before long, her car was parked right in front of the Adwlyn Agency.

Today, the employees idols and actors under Adwlyn Agency gathered in the big hall. After two weeks off due to summer, they were back to work again.

"Are you ready, Ms. Emma?"

How would people react? Will Emma be kicked out by Jovanka and Jennifer again?
