No Rose Without A Thorn's

Evan Threat

Dizza came home restless, after hearing the information Aunt Sarti gave, she immediately turned to Kusuma's company.

Keira who had just returned from Mr. Kusuma's room walked over with thoughts and burdens filling her head. He did not even see Dizzah who stood watching him. Keira walked into her room without a smile, just as she was dropping down on the sofa, Dizzah rushed in.

"What are you doing here?" Keira asked in surprise. Dizza did not answer, he sat down next to Keira.

"Sister from dad's room?"

Keira nodded.

"Is there a problem?"

"Just a matter of work as usual."

Keira did not discuss that Kusuma stressed to her about how important the Oshi Group's investment was and that she required Keira to succeed, no matter what.

Dizzah looked at Keira.

"Sister, if you're tired, why don't you rest or just stop?"

"Did?" Keira did not understand Dizza's words, and then suddenly Dizza hugged Keira.

"If you're tired, just stop working."

Keira laughed, "What are you talking about."

"Sister, don't bear the burden alone."

Keira took off Dizza's embrace.

"Did you come here just for this?" ask Keira wonder.

Dizza stared for a moment and smiled.

"Yes, from now on I will come more often and hug Big Brother more!"

"Huh?Are you healthy?" Keira was confused.

Dizza stood up and said quickly, "Forget it!"

Keira did not understand Dizza's words, she just laughed a little.

"Sister, I'll go first." Dizzie suddenly remembered something.

"Go, be careful on the road."

Keira waved her hand, Dizza looked at Keira as if unwilling to leave her.

**

Keira meets Evan in an apartment. Evan greeted her with a big smile.

"Where's Miss Leah?"

"Why are you looking for him?"

"Don't play me."

"You're willing to be played with, you have a choice not to come, right?"

Keira confirmed Evan's words in heart.

"I've prepared dinner. Please come in." Evan spoke seriously.

Keira had to follow him.

Evan arranged the dining table with a romantic atmosphere, Keira just silently observed the table.

"I used to imagine enjoying dinner like this with you."

"Ah, this must feel normal to you, right?"

"Please eat." Evan invites Keira to enjoy the dishes she serves. Keira drank only the water.

"Evan, please, stop this game."

"Say, what do you want?"

"I want you."

Evan put down his fork and laughed.

"If I say this, are you willing to sacrifice for the Kusuma project?"

"You, don't be so rude." Keira was offended.

"I'm sure you'd refuse that for Kusuma, but you definitely can't refuse if it's for your sister and your mother, right?"

"Evan, I'm tired of all this. Tell me, do you really know where my sister is? Or are you just threatening me?"

"Why did I tell my enemy?"

"Enemy?" Keira asked slowly.

"Yes, enemies. Now we stand on the opposite side. We're gonna kill each other, aren't we?"

"What do you mean?"

Evan stands up, takes the envelope and throws it into Keira's lap. Keira took an envelope containing pictures of her mother talking to someone.

"What's this?"

"Don't pretend you don't know!"

"I don't know!" Keira insisted.

"Your mother hired a hit man to kill me and Nada."

"What?"

Keira limps to hear that her mother is planning to kill Evan and Nada.

Keira took another picture of Dizza.

"What's this?"

"Of course we took precautionary measures by first watching your sister!"

"If your mother does anything to Nada, Dizzah will bear it."

Keira massaged her forehead which suddenly felt dizzy.

"Please stop all this. If you stop him, I'll beg my mother to stop him too."

Evan laughs. "You think I can be fooled twice?"

"Van, please... "Keira felt her head getting dizzy, her vision became blurred, then she accidentally dropped the glass. Evan just looked at Keira in silence. Keira looked at Evan, then she realized something.

"What did you give me?" asked Keira in a weak voice.

Evan did not answer, he approached Keira who was getting dizzy and just as Keira fell, he caught her.

*

Keira opened her eyes slowly, a ray of sunlight dazzling her gaze. His head was heavy, he slowly looked around the room that felt foreign to him, then he remembered his dinner with Evan.

Evan gave her sleeping pills.

Keira tries to get up and comes out of the locked room.

Is this kidnapping?

Instantly he panicked. Keira tried to find a window but in vain, the room was on the 16th floor.

Jeglex. The door opened, Evan standing at the door.

"Are you trying to kill me first?" ask Keira.

Evan laughed mockingly.

"It's a kidnapping, I'll report you!"

Keira walked out, Evan holding his hand. "Don't go out."

"Why do you have to act like this?" ask Keira.

Evan forced Keira to sit down.

"Listen to me!"

"Your mother threatened Nada!"

Keira looked at Evan in disbelief.

"You lied!"

"He sent Nada back abroad."

"But, why?"

Keira's head was filled with various questions, why did her mother have to get rid of Nada?

Evan looked at Keira furiously.

"Have your eyes been blinded by treasure?"

"What do you mean?"

"How could you not recognize your own family?! Do you really not want to know him anymore?" Evan shouted furiously.

"family?what family?"

Evan took out the Tone necklace and threw it into Keira's lap.

"You think I lied to you?That's your sister's necklace, right?"

Keira took the exact same necklace as hers.

"Where did you find this?Tell me where?!" Keira yells.

Evan slammed the vase on the table hard.

"How can a mother not recognize her own child?!"

"Van, is Nada... but. how..."

Keira sobbing. He does suspect Nada has the same scar as Zea, but he does not think that Nada is Zea.

"You know, all her life she's been trying to find her real family, find out why she's been separated. He was even sure of having an older brother waiting for him." Evan spoke without seeing Keira.

"For the first time I'm grateful that his memory didn't return! How would he feel if he knew that he was intentionally abandoned and discarded?"

"We didn't throw it away. What happened to him?" Keira was still crying.

"Van, please let me talk to him."

"For what? you will only add to his wound. Your mother even threw him back. Let him live like this, don't remember his family."

"Why doesn't he remember us?"

"That's a gift to her!"

"Van, please, I want to meet him....." Keira cried.

"I didn't even know he was alive. How did he live all this time?"

"I will take Nada abroad, away from you!"

"Van, please..."

"As your mother asked, I will take one of her children, just as you took Hans' life!"

"Van, what are you going to do with Zea?"

"Relax, I'm not gonna kill him. I'll let her live a quiet life without you, she'll hate you all her life. You and your mother!"

Keira's crying.

"Toh, neither do you want the presence of Nada, right? I'm sure your mother wouldn't mind being left behind by her son a second time either. Wasn't he the one who asked Nada to stay away from your lives? I won't hurt Nada, but pray uncle doesn't recognize her as your sister.."

"My mother doesn't recognize him..."Keira sobbing.

"But, I wonder, what your mother would do if the other child suffered."

"What do you mean?"

Evan pulls out his phone and gives it to Keira. Keira picks up the phone that opened a video.

"What did you do to him?!" Keira shouted furiously.

"I didn't do anything, my uncle did."

"Please let go of Dizza..."

Keira pleads with Evan. Evan picks up his cell phone and calls someone, he turns on the loudspeaker and lets Keira hear a Dizza scream that someone is yelling at.

Keira wiped her tears.

"Uncle kept him from yesterday."

"Dizza knows nothing... Please Van, let them go. If you want revenge, do it to me. Let Dizzah and Zea go. Let them go."

Evan sat down next to Keira.

"Are you going to do everything for them?"

Keira was still crying.

"My answer!" Evan snaps.

"Do what you want! But please don't hurt them...." Keira shouted.

Evan looked at Keira's face.

"Leave them all...." Said Evan slowly.

"Leave your fiancee."

Keira looked at Evan fearfully.

"You... "

"I have to be sure that you're on my side. Leave them all and live with me." Said Evan slowly.

Keira wiped her tears.

"How can you be like this.....??"

"Is living with me a difficult choice for you?" ask Evan lirih. He held back his tears.

"Are you going to choose your life and sacrifice your two sisters?" Evan stood up and turned his face away.

Keira took her breath.

"Alright if that's your wish. Let them go, I'll follow your will..."

Evan did not answer, he walked out slowly. Keira came back crying.

All my life I dreamed of being able to repeat life with this man. All my life I've missed him and hope he comes back one day. God, but why did you turn him back into a different person?
