A few days later, at a restaurant

In a private room, there was seen a beautiful woman sitting alone. That room was indeed set for a capacity of 10 pax, but from the set up of the tables there, including the plates and cutlery on the table, it seemed as if it was purposely made for only 3 pax, even though there were many empty chairs. The only daughter of the couple, Arnold Laurens Verz and Amber Natasya Loght stared at the door as if she was hoping someone would come to that place.

“Are Uncle G and Aunty Vanessa coming as they promised? Let's see ... they never break their promises, especially my uncle. Let's just hope that these two come soon, so there will not be too much of a wait. I hate being lonely," muttered Abby softly.

She looked nervous but tried to cover up well. The hazel-eyed woman was starting to feel bored, so her right hand took a glass of water and slowly drank it.

A young lady glanced at the watch on her left wrist. The time shown was 11:45 AM. However, it seemed to

  • The Second Chance   Alone in This Penthouse

    At 07:55 PMThe only daughter of the couple, Arnold Laurens Verz and Amber Natasya Loght just got out of the elevator. Her facial expression looked tired, and she walked at a moderate pace. Occasionally, a woman with a slim body massage the shoulders, both the right and left sides, as if she felt sore in that area.“Why did the hell today get so jammed? If I knew like that, it would be better for me not to drive a car. I am deadly tired and need massage on my shoulder and back area as soon as possible.”When she arrived in front of a unit, the young lady started trying to open the door, and it worked. The bitchy-looking woman started to go inside, and she did not forget to close the door behind her. The atmosphere there was quiet; even the darkness enveloped the penthouse. However, this situation did not make Abby afraid. The girl started walking in a certain direction, and soon the lights in the living room area turned on.“It is better now. I am glad to see the lights here."When th

  • The Second Chance   After Party

    03:30 AMA brown-haired man and his three friends had just exited from the private elevator. The faces of the three of them were red, and they walked unsteadily, which further strengthened the indication that they were indeed drunk. One of the men travelling with Abigail Laurentia Verz's husband and he asked her, “Hey, Massimo! Would your wife not mind if we came with you and stayed in your penthouse?”The owner of the name suddenly shook his head. He could not remember any information about a woman who was referred to as 'his wife' by his friend, so that question was not answered directly. In his mind, there was only one wish: to arrive in his unit as soon as possible and rest comfortably there. Meanwhile, a person who was asking the question just lets his current question go.A few minutes later, they arrived in front of a unit. The thirty-year-old man, without further ado, opened the door, and then after succeeding, he and his friends as soon as possible entered their destination.

    In the bathroomAbigail Laurentia Verz: "Hello?"The slender girl was confused because she got a phone call from her best friend. Meanwhile, the caller on the other side was instantly relieved because, finally, she could hear the target's voice. Massimo Francesco Alonso's wife walked towards the door, and after arriving at the intended spot, a woman with long hair as soon as possible closed the door and also locked it from the inside.Mila Efatha Roztiz: “Hello. Abby, where have you been? You have made me panic!”The red-haired girl could not hold back her annoyance, so her tone of voice rose. On the other hand, when she heard a complaint from the other person, Joseph Martin Alonso's daughter-in-law was stunned for a few seconds. However, she suddenly laughed out loud, so that action made her best friend raise an eyebrow because she did not understand Abby's reaction.Abigail Laurentia Verz: “Hey! Why are you even angry, anyway? It is still early, but you are saying strange things ins

  • The Second Chance   Abby, You Should be Here

    In the nighttime, around 07:50 PMA blonde-haired woman appeared to be in a private elevator. There she was, alone, and the atmosphere was so lonely because there was no one to talk to. That young lady just let the silence hit without intending to do anything to dispel it. An idea flashed through Abby's mind, so she, as soon as possible, wanted to carry out such an action. “I want to cook something. Should I leave some food for Massimo? But what if it turns out that he did not even come home early like last night?”Not long after, the elevator stopped moving, and a sound was heard from inside as if signalling that the passanger had arrived at the destination floor. When that door opened, the bitchy-looking woman, without further ado, came out and walked down the corridor. The atmosphere was very quiet and the only sound from her shoes did not scare Abby. However, she just wanted to be able to get to her husband's penthouse quickly, even though she could not do it as soon as possible.

  • The Second Chance   What Was That?

    At 00:30 AMThe elevator door, which was originally closed, suddenly opened wide by itself. From there, it was seen that several people came out, and they seemed unable to walk properly. Occasionally a man fell, so he had to be assisted by his friends. This situation was very sad because most of them were in their thirties.In the corridor leading to the penthouse, it was seen that several people were staggering due to drinking too much alcohol. They consisted of four men and a scantily clad woman. Arnold Laurens Verz's son-in-law seemed to be embracing the opposite sex's waist and occasionally kissing a brunette-haired girl on the cheek. The two of them seemed not to be awkward at showing affection, even though the other three people were indeed drunk."Hey Massimo. When do we get to your penthouse? I feel we are getting further away from your unit.” A bald-headed man asked Abigail Laurentia Verz's husband. The named owner ignored the question and continued walking with a woman with

    Two months later“Abby, how are you?”A red-haired woman said this sentence so that the owner of that name, who had been staring in another direction, suddenly turned to the source of the sound. She saw her best friend who had just arrived there. Without waiting any longer, the young lady immediately hugged Mila as if they had not seen each other for a long time. The other person also replied with the same action. In fact, the two of them kissed each other on the left and right cheeks.“I am great. How are you, Mila? It has been so long since I didn't see you.”The round-faced girl smiled broadly, but as soon as possible, it changed when she saw the interlocutor's expression. Meanwhile, Massimo Francesco Alonso's wife had not yet realized that there was something strange about her best friend's attitude. Mila kept observing, “Yeah. I have been busy with my wedding preparations. But ... wait a minute. Are you okay? Why is your face so weird?”“Hmm...? What did you mean? What happened w

    At 06:45 PMA long-haired girl had just arrived in front of a closed room. Before she put her face into a small box, the smart lady realized something was wrong, so the daughters-in-law of Joseph Martin Alonso and Maria Sylvanie Althea stopped her original intention."Did I see right? Why is it so bright inside the penthouse? Has Massimo come home from work?” muttered Abby, confused.Without wasting any more time, as soon as possible, the bitchy-looking girl knocked on the door several times. When she had finished doing this, Abby stopped, straining her ears. However, there was still no sign of someone walking towards the door and opening it for her.“It is weird. If there is no one inside, why is there even a light? Could it be that there are robbers in there or thieves have visited this place? Oh, no way. I must check the condition before it is too late."The CEO of Verz Incorporation accidentally opened the door without putting her face into the box that was meant to scan faces. Ho

    The next day, at 05:45 AMA woman with long hair looked busy in the kitchen. She was stirring the soup that had just been served in the bowl. Smoke billowed from there, a sign that the soup was boiling, so anyone who wanted to eat it had to be careful so they would not burn their tongues. The smell of cooking wafted through the air, causing that young lady to smile in satisfaction.“I have to make sure Massimo eats this food, so he can take his medicine later. Well, if that idiot still refuses, then I'll force him. Or if necessary, I would call my father-in-law, so he would give up, and obey my words," muttered the bitchy-looking girl.In less than two minutes, the CEO of Verz's Incorporation came out of the kitchen area, carefully carrying a tray of food and drinks.I wish Massimo a speedy recovery so that he can do his usual activities. But if the idiot recovers well, will he still go to parties with his friends and bring prostitutes as usual? I hope he does not do that again, Abby

Occasionally he stopped typing and then glanced at the screen as he wanted to check what was written there. When he felt all the writing was okay, the handsome man returned to typing. Not long after, there was a knock on the door, but it did not distract the macho guy."Who is that?" asked Massimo. He deliberately spoke a little louder so that someone behind the door could hear his voice. The thick-browed man continued to type and had not taken his eyes off the laptop in front of him.“Mr. Alonso, this is me,” answered a long-haired girl. The formally dressed woman had stopped knocking on the door when she heard voices from inside her destination.Massimo, who heard the answer from the other person, as soon as possible stopped his current activity. Now the playboy looked at the door and began to feel something was wrong, although he did not know what caused this. The strong-jawed ma

Meanwhile, the slender woman still closed her eyes, feeling something touching her skin. Slowly, the girl stretched and then opened her eyes."Mh... morning, Hubby." The hazel-eyed girl tried to smile, even though she was still sleepy.That young lady started to yawn but covered her lips with her hand so the part did not open wide. The husband replied with the same thing. The thirty-year-old man even kissed his life partner on the lips. Abby, who was not ready for this situation, became nervous. Her inner consciousness had not yet recovered one hundred per cent, but she had already faced the intimate actions of the opposite sex.When the handsome man ended the hot kiss, he looked at his spouse lovingly.

    Three weeks later, on Saturday early morningA husband and wife look fast asleep. They were not wearing any clothes at all, and there was only a sheet big enough to cover their bodies. A man who initially turned his back on his life partner now turned around and spontaneously hugged the body of the opposite sex. Meanwhile, a woman with long hair seemed not bothered by this situation. The atmosphere in the room was so quiet, especially since the sun had not yet appeared on the eastern horizon.Not long after, a voice echoed there. They were squirming as if, even in their subconscious; they knew something was disturbing their rest. Over time, the sound became louder and louder, so the owner of the penthouse was forced to wake up from sleep while looking for objects that were the source of the sound while holding back extreme sleepiness."What time is it now? Why would anyone call me at this hour? Do they not have clocks in their homes?” Massimo grunted, yawning widely. Occasionally a bu

I am curious, what would he do? Has he prepared something? But what was that? He made me curious and suspicious at the same time,” muttered Abby softly.When the only daughter of the couple, Arnold Laurens Verz and Amber Natasya Loght, wanted to open the door, unexpectedly, the object opened by itself so that the ambitious woman was aghast. Abby took several steps back spontaneously, afraid something might happen to her. Meanwhile, a man appeared from behind the door. He was astonished when he saw the pale expression of the opposite sex.“Honey, are you okay? What happened to you?” asked Massimo, confused.“Jesus! You really made me almost die of shock!” answered Abby, who looked irritated.The burly man held back his laughter because he did not expect his wife to act like that. Meanwhile, a woman with a tal

The atmosphere in the place was indeed quiet because the owner was still fast asleep. Abby, who knew this, could only remain silent. She reached her husband's bedside and then placed the object she had been holding onto the nightstand. Right when that young lady had turned around, she suddenly heard a voice that stunned her, "Where are you going, Abby?"The owner of the name was silent for a few seconds because she did not expect to be reprimanded by the man. Meanwhile, the burly, shirtless man still closed his eyes, but his body began to squirm. The smell of cooking began to waft into the room, arousing Massimo's appetite. Abby turned around and then observed the opposite sex, who was still lying on the bed.“I want breakfast, Massimo.

The twenty-five-year-old woman yawned occasionally, but that did not slow her down. The sound of the girl's footsteps echoed in the air, but she seemed unafraid, for the atmosphere was brightly lit."Fortunately, my schedule can be changed, so for a few days I can take care of Massimo. That spoiled man is really annoying, because I helped him, but still, he acted annoying.” Abby grumbled to herself, then let out a heavy breath.Not long after, the bitchy-faced woman arrived in front of her destination.

The beautiful woman did not take her eyes off the papers as if nothing was interesting besides the object she was reading until suddenly, she heard a knock on the door, diverting her attention. "Who is that?" asked Abby, who was annoyed. "It is me, Miss Abby," said someone on the other side of the door. "Come in." Abby answered the other person. In less than a minute, the door was wide open. A girl with long black hair entered the room, carrying a fairly large white plastic bag with the logo of a famous restaurant in the city of New Star.
