“It seems your father’s influence is not strong in this country, Aldrich.” Areez sneered at Aldrich who was also being disappointed loudly. “How could those people betray us at the last moment like this?”

Aldrich growled. “I’m also surprised and really didn’t expect them to turn against us, I really can’t believe it. It feels like a dream to see them dare to betray us.”

“How much power is Christian Clarke?” Areez asked, suddenly changing the topic, Areez felt that the mastermind behind all this chaos was Christian Clarke, the party who loudly voiced his opposition to the mega project development plan.

“Why suddenly ask Prince Clarke?”

One of Areez’s eyebrows rose. “Prince Clarke? Is he from the European nobility?”

Aldrich chuckled. “No, Christian Clarke is an ordinary person. Not like you who still have thick royal blood.”

.....

“But why did you call him a prince earlier if he was a commoner?” Areez asked curiously.

“That’s because of their ubiquitous business empire, Areez. Currently Christian Clarke occupies the position of the most influential young CEO in Europe and America, overtaking your rival Adam John for the third year in a row.”

Areez’s lips curved. “Tch, the survey results are not accurate. Why should you believe it?”

“Akh whatever it is clear Christian Clarke is a strong man and...”

“In New Zealand and South America he is nothing,” Areez said curtly.

The Floyen family’s wine business, which was famous for centuries, is still at the top of the list for producing the best wines in the world. New Zealand and South America are places where the Floyen family’s finest wineries are still unrivaled. Because of that these two areas became gold fields for Areez for decades.

“You’re in a different business, Areez. Don’t compare them, after all at this point..”

“Whose side are you actually on, Aldrich? Why have you been boasting about that damn Christian Clarke all along?”

Aldrich chuckled amused at Areez’s words. “Why are you angry? I’m just answering your question about that Christian Clarke, don’t be jealous, Areez. You know whose side I’m on, right?”

“You clever tongue wrestling,” Areez grumbled annoyed. “I’m getting more and more curious to meet him, I want to see firsthand the figure that you continue to be proud of.”

“If you want to meet him then we’d better go back to the hotel now.”

“Why do we have to go back to the hotel? I still want to make calculations with the people who betrayed me,” Areez said with emotion, his gaze fixed on the ten MPs who had just met him and withdrew their support for the project Areez was developing.

Aldrich’s expression changed. “That’s because Christian Clarke is staying at the same hotel as us, Areez. He turns out to be very close to us.”

“Are you serious? How do you know?”

Aldrich also told what he heard in the lobby this morning while waiting for Areez to get off, the hotel staff were discussing which driver would take Christian Clarke away.

Because he was very curious about Christian Clarke’s figure, Areez finally looked for Christian’s figure on his cellphone. Areez’s hazel eyes widened when he recognized the person who had messed up all his plans.

“Damn it, it was the man.”

“What? Who are you...” Aldrich stopped his words when he saw Areez’s cell phone screen which was showing the handsome face of Christian Clarke who was receiving an award on the big stage.

Areez’s jaw tightened, his gaze darkening. “No wonder he is that arrogant, it turns out he is the person I was looking for.”

“Areez...” Aldrich immediately warned his friend not to do anything wrong. “Don’t make things more difficult.”

Areez moistened his thin lips with his wet tongue. “It wasn’t me who was looking for trouble in the first place, Christian Clarke was the one who started it. Even if you saw for yourself it wasn’t what his secretary did, she purposely threw herself at me and hoped I would be merciful to her. Tch, she really thought she was. Who is she? She’s nothing compared to Mira.”

“Mira again Mira again, why do you always compare women with Mira? Mira is indeed beautiful, very beautiful, but that’s not enough Areez. If she doesn’t love you then...”

“Mira loves me!” shouted Areez loudly. “Mira is the only woman who will be Mrs Floyen in the future and she loves me very much.”

“Be careful,” Kainer said quietly to Elena who was about to get out of the car.

Elena smiled. “Thank you, Kainer,” Elena answered quietly when she had managed to set her feet in the lobby of the hotel where they had stayed before.

“It’s nothing.”

“Don’t spoil her, Kainer. She’s a strong girl who can shower multiple times in the middle of the night, so you don’t need to pay attention to her.” From where he stood Christian spoke curtly commenting on the interaction between Kainer and Elena. Christian is still annoyed with Elena for forcing him to come home from the hospital, even though the doctor who examined her still suggested that Elena stay in the hospital until tomorrow. But that stubborn girl still insisted on going home, because of that the doctor could do nothing but accept her request.

“My apologies, young master,” said Kainer regretfully.

“You’d better finish your job, keep an eye on those guys’ progress. Make sure they don’t change their mind again.”

Kainer nodded her head politely as a sign that she understood the task she had just been given. After saying goodbye respectfully, Kainer immediately left Christian’s presence to carry out his duties leaving Elena and Christian alone. Didn’t Kainer know that Elena was very depressed when she was alone like this with Christian? Oh poor Elena.

Christian’s eyes widen when he sees Elena still standing where she is and not rushing into the hotel. “How long are you going to stand there, Elena? Are you going to block someone else’s entrance?”

Elena, who was actually holding back a headache, only smiled slightly when she heard Christian’s words, without opening her lips which were still slightly pale, Elena slowly tried to move her feet. But just as her right foot stepped on, her body suddenly swayed because she lost her balance. Elena’s slender body would really kiss the hard floor if Christian didn’t move right away, with incredible speed Christian grabs Elena’s body and holds her tightly in his arms.

“Stubborn girl!” Christian grumbles in annoyance. “Why are you so annoying, huh?”

Elena, who had previously given up on falling to the floor slowly opened her tightly closed eyes, Elena could faintly see Christian’s face which was very close to hers. Their noses were barely touching at this point.

“We’re back at the hospital!”

“No!.” Elena panicked and immediately grabbed Christian’s arm. “I-I hate hospitals, I don’t like the smell of hospitals.”

Christian’s eyes narrow, trying to read the expression on Elena’s face. With his intelligence that is above average, Christian can tell if someone is lying to him and at this time he doesn’t find that lie in Elena. Which means that Elena is really afraid of hospitals.

“I have bad memories with hospitals, sir.” Elena’s voice trembled as she spoke.

“Bad memories?”
