Evelyne fell silent, glancing her eyes at William, who was standing beside her. William did not hurt him last night, but his attitude last night and this morning made him feel confused. “No, grandpa. Liam didn't hurt me last night, we just fell asleep in the same bed without doing anything.” Evelyne lowered her head as she said her last sentence.
William smiled, while the grandfather who saw his smile instead made him think that this man was threatening Evelyne not to tell the truth. “Yoona, what's serious? You're not lying, are you?” asked the grandfather who made Evelyne raise his head to look at the grandfather who was looking at him with an anxious look.
“I'm not lying, grandpa. I say this honestly, without any threat” Evelyne said with a smile on her feet.
Grandpa squinted his eyes “Will! You know what I would do if you dared to do something to a woman?”
“Hn...I know, you don't have to say it anymore!” william joined Evelyne's hand to stand closer to her. “Come go! We're almost late”
Evelyne held the upper arm of William who was holding one of his hands. “Grandfather, we permission to exit for a moment. Sorry can't have breakfast with you today” Evelyne looked at grandfather with her respectful attitude.
“Yes, you go! Don't forget, teach this kid about a lot of things. He is indeed a smart man, but his intelligence is only used for his work only, and not for his other life.” grandfather sneered.
Evelyne chuckled slightly, then lifted her head to look at William who was putting on his dark face when grandfather openly told Evelyne about his flaws. “Ya...I will definitely teach him many things”.
“But before you teach that, I will first teach you how to live in the cruel world of business” William said in a cold tone.
Grandfather frowned, looking at William with a sharp gaze as Evelyne felt the dark aura of the two being so terrifying. “Wills! I warned you not to say that again!!”
“Ckk Decih William walked out of the residence holding Evelyne's hand behind him. “Yoona, forget the talk today! Because it is very unimportant”
Evelyne was speechless, he just stared at William's huge back from behind which looked so dashing. But in Evelyne's heart said that behind William's great dashing back, there were some burdens that he bore alone. And it has to do with William's earlier words.
teach how to live in the cruel world of business
What the hell's going on? What did this man have to endure, to make him say that? Even the great grandfather also said that the heartless hard attitude from within him, it was because of the factors he experienced in his past.

The maxime residence.
“Large master. Would it be okay, if the lady knew all the darkness behind this?” ask the assistant head with the head lowered. Grandfather laughed, carving out an interest in Evelyne as he recalled how the white bandage was wrapped around William's neck. “I think it won't be a problem. Because whatever the background of the child. Because the couple he now juxtaposes, is an amazing woman.”
“But sir, how about their divorce?” the assistant chief asked again in a slow voice. “Parties from the Park family have asked me to provide a letter of approval for their divorce.”
Grandfather frowned, then sighed heavily. “They know that?”
“Yes sir, they also plan to do a deal on the chen family to marry off their daughter's son after Mr. William successfully divorced Ms. Yoona” she explained by showing a letter to grandfather.
Grandfather took the letter, read it in its entirety and then tore it up into small pieces of paper. Grandpa also took off the pieces on top to make the paper fall to the floor as it passed through grandfather's face that looked so dark. A terrifying aura returned as all the servants were cleaning the floor from the pieces of paper.
- That bastard!! It turns out that he is still using it to make money?!-
“Go find information about chen family now!” Shouted grandfather who made a group of people in black clothes come out of nowhere. “If the result is unsatisfactory, then it is your head that I will make the source of that information!!”
After hearing the order, the group of people in black clothes immediately went out ubgyj to carry out their duties. While grandfather was still standing upright in the middle of the residence hall, making the atmosphere there very awkward. Even the head assistant who was there felt her trembling body as she looked at the personality of the maxime grandfather she had long covered up because of Evelyne's existence.
“You!! Go to your place, and don't let William and Yoona know all this. Understand?” grandfather turned his head right as he closed his eyes to the assistant's head.
“Understanding sir! I make sure everyone will not know it” he said firmly.

The Fashion Store.
“Sister Clara, why have I rarely seen you go with brother William again in the last few weeks? Don't you usually, you'll always go along with him anywhere?” jessica asked as they were picking some dresses in front of them.
Clara let out a sigh, putting on a sad face because she had to tell Jessica the truth right now. “I don't know, Brother William has been very busy lately. I called him to ask him to meet or talk, he always said he was busy. Though in the past, as busy as he was.he always took his time for me”.
“How long has he been like that? And why didn't you ever tell me that?” jessica rolled her eyes at the beautiful woman standing next to her. “I guess all this will last a few days, but I also wouldn't think that William would ignore me for a few weeks. Though before, he was so romantic to me”
Jessica squealed a little, thinking that William's change to Clara must have something to do with Evelyne's existence. “Surely because of women ******it!”
“Hah...impossible! How could that woman make William do something like this to me. Though it has been seen so clearly that from the material, appearance, talent, beauty and even cleverness.I am much better than the woman” avoid Clara arrogantly he lowered Evelyne's position in his eyes.
Jessica laughed loudly, she almost forgot the fact that Evelyne was really no match for Clara to snatch William from their past.

William invites Evelyne to go to the VIP room that was booked by him a few hours ago. Because this restaurant is quite famous in their country, because the food and facilities are very satisfying for the visitors who come there. The service at the restaurant was also quite professional to make everything run smoothly.
Not only that, there are also several garden courtyards that are usually the officials of the message to enjoy the incredible scenery from there. Many of the servants warmly welcomed the arrival of William and Evelyne, they seemed to recognize William and even as he wanted to rebuke this man, William always placed his index finger on his lips to not speak to him now.
“Liam, you said we'd go buy breakfast outside. Why did you bring me here? Is that not too much?” Evelyne raised her head every time she spoke to William because of their height which looked quite far away.
William lowered his gaze, then smiled slightly as the hand of the man gently rubbed Evelyne's head attentively. “What's wrong? Are you uncomfortable with this place?”
“Sikit” said with a slow “I'm just not unusual if I have to go to a place like this”
William was silent, narrowing his eyes at the look on Evelyne's face which really showed that he was uncomfortable in a place like this. Butwhy? Didn't this woman always come here for fun? In fact, he also often spends his money only on items that are not important.
But now, Evelyne seemed to rarely ask her for money to shop. In fact, he also looks uncomfortable if William takes him to a place that usually has so many people in it. Is this a change or is it different?
“if uncomfortable, do you want to move to another place?” ask William who is ready to cancel his booking in the VIP room.
Evelyne shook her head “No need, you've ordered everything. So I feel, I just hug getting used to the new place”
“Are you sure?” William approached Evelyne to remove the discomfort from Evelyne's heart. “Yes, I'm sure. Sorry to bother you” Evelyne sighed to calm herself down.
Arriving at the VIP room, Evelyne immediately sat down at the place the waiter had prepared for her and William to sit down. It looks so beautiful, because William deliberately chose their VIP room close to the lake which is located behind this restaurant. Even they can see it clearly, because there is a large door that opens to make them able to see the scenery outside.
The lake is quite large and the water is also clean. Surrounding there are several flower gardens that become the boundary for visitors with the lake. Evelyne quite admired how beautiful the outside world was that she had just seen for the first time. His heart was very happy, but on the other hand he also felt pain because he could not see all this beauty together with his mother and sister.
- Mom, you're right! This world is too vast for me to always want darkness in comparison to the light of the world
William was silent when he saw the beautiful face of evelyne that looked so graceful, although his face was not too spilled by some make up. The long hair owned by Evelyne is shiny black makes her appearance a little elegant, although this woman does not wear clothes that look expensive.
But if you look carefully, Evelyne has a face that is much more beautiful and young compared to clara. An elegant princess who is world famous for her beauty and elegance. But what William now sees is not beauty, but the beauty of the heart that makes william realize that love is not seen from appearance, but from the deepest heart.
“Yoona? What are you looking at, making you look at him for so long?” william asked, which made Evelyne turn her head when she heard the words. “Hn...no, just a little amazed there with the world” he replied with a sweet smile on his face.
William frowned, What is it with the world? What was so amazing that it made him stunned when he saw its beauty. “You're too much! The world is not always beautiful. So never be fooled by its beauty alone, because behind the beauty of the world.there is a bitter reality to be accepted”.
“How bitter is that reality? Shouldn't you never feel it?” asked Evelyne who made William suddenly speechless and changed the look of his face to be very cold.
What the hell's going on? Is this man offended by his words?
Tok.dok...
The sound of knocking on the door rang out in the room which made Evelyne instantly speechless, while William said a few words to let them in by bringing some food that had been ordered by him before coming.
“Master, this your food has come. Sorry for making you wait so long” he said politely.
William nodded, while Evelyne was only speechless bowing his head as the waiter began to compile some food on their dining table. “Please enjoy your morning meal, Mr. Miss. You permission to withdraw, if you need something then do not hesitate to call us” said the service while walking away from the VIP room owned by William. .
Seeing that the waiter had left, Evelyne felt that the atmosphere there was very awkward. Because he knew that he had spoken wrongly to this man. Wanting to apologize, Evelyne opened her voice to begin the conversation. Suddenly, William's HP rang. Marking a call coming into his phone.
William picked up the phone, then moved from his seat to get out of the room for a moment. Evelyne knew that their conversation was quite important. Because if he didn't, William wouldn't have possibly gone out of the room just to avoid himself.
- I seem to be expecting too much
A few minutes later, William re-entered the VIP room where a woman was eating some of his meals first. William didn't mind it if Evelyne ate it first rather than waiting for him. “You're done?”
“A little more. What was? Is there a sudden call from the office?” evelyne asked, not raising her head at all, to look at William who was now in front of her.
William shook his head, then fell silent for a moment as he looked at Evelyne who continued to focus himself on this food in front of him. “Are you angry with me?” ask William in a soft voice. “Sorry, I didn't mean to make the atmosphere this awkward. I'm sorry!”
“You are not wrong! I'm the one who started, so there's no need to feel guilty.” Say it by getting up from his seat. “I'm done. Gotta go to the office immediately, sorry can't wait for you any longer”
William nodded, then walked out of the VIP room leaving Evelyne who was still silent on the spot. William walked up to the waiter to pay all his bills. After that, he walked to the car to wait for Evelyne to get out of the restaurant.
- It's hard to build a relationship that I've ruined before!-
