Playboy Boss

Only self-esteem remains.

Episode 141: Only self-esteem is left.

***

At Keenan's residence, the,

Keenan for the first time in his life gave in to a feeling that grew bigger in his heart.

He does not know if the greater the love, the greater the desire to protect even in any way.

He talked to his father for a while, and then he turned off the call from his father, he saw the night sky, this time the night was so cloudy and dark, there were no stars to be seen.

His eyes that were always sharp for this time looked so deep and sweet, something that he held continuously and wanted to hold on his side, eventually the situation would always win and separate.

Although he was not willing, even though he wanted to run right now and hug his wife, although he wanted to say that he never got bored and always loved her, fear always gnawed at his heart.

He had seen his pale-faced mother in the hospital, it made Keenan aware that he would not be ready to feel the same way towards Love.

Losing Love forever would drive him crazy, and all he could do now was keep him from afar.

At the same time, Love sat on the edge of the bed, the door to the balcony was still open, a cold wind entered the room but was not felt by him.

His empty eyes and tears that would not dry up, he gripped the mattress in his hand.

His heart was broken and he could not control it.

Like Cinderella, lost her magic at twelve o'clock in the night, returned to being an ordinary woman with all things heartbreaking.

Love had been lifted up to the sky and thrown away, hearing her husband say that he was like the woman who had been begging Keenan to make her heart ache.

Love remembers if Keenan had indeed said it, the night Keenan was angry with him, if Keenan would make Love bend her knees and plead with him.

"You win, I finally bow my knees to you, you win over my worthless heart, you win for making me suffer like this, you win Keenan!" sluggish and slow speech, tears that continued to flow, he rubbed his flat stomach.

Love knows she can't fix everything anymore, she's been thrown away and unneeded, like a second hand.

He did not want to drop his pride again and cried begging again, he did not want to be likened to a woman who had been teasing Keenan all along.

Love stared painfully, the diamond ring so luxurious in his fingers, he released the ring, his tears grew so intense, his sobs sounded restrained so as not to make a louder sound.

Then she took off the necklace which was the gift she liked the most, she clutched the two expensive jewels that would eventually come off of her as well.

In just one night, one night just to make Love lose everything, he finally understood none of this was his.

He finally came to his senses, from the very beginning the contract between him and Keenan never ended, and now he has to go and forget everything.

Think of all this as just a dream, a good dream or a nightmare all mixed up.

But, he knew from the beginning all he had was self-esteem, he had begged last night, he had already cried and said what he wanted to say.

If Keenan will let go of himself out of boredom, what can Love do?

He could only leave with his remaining pride, he would hide his broken feelings, he had indeed gotten used to hiding the feelings of his aching heart, this time what was his harm in theatricalizing again?

Love put on her clothes that she was wearing when she first entered Keenan's apartment, she saw a closet full of branded and expensive clothes, she closed the closet, she said, none of it is all his.

He left everything in the room, he came out of Keenan's private room and stepped towards the lower floor, there was already a butler and a few servants, and Keenan was sitting on the sofa as if waiting for him.

"Heh, I can't wait to see me sign the letter, how sad I am!" furious that Love stopped her steps for a moment, she swallowed her saliva and regulated her breathing.

He must not look shaky and broken, he must be able to hide everything, all the pain he has swallowed and hid, at least for a few minutes as he sat in front of Keenan.

"No ... Tak ... No!"

The echoing sound of Love's shoes made all eyes on him.

"Deg!"

Keenan's heart as if squeezed so sick at once saw the approaching Love wearing the clothes she first wore, clothes she hadn't bought.

Love sat on the sofa opposite Keenan, his tiny hand immediately picking up the letter that had been available on the table.

"I'm just signing, right?" ask Love without turning a single bit towards Keenan.

"B ... Yes," Keenan retorted slightly trembling, his hands clutching as he saw Love had already picked up the pen and signed it directly and quickly.

Then after that, Love put the wedding ring and necklace pendant that he once gave to Love.

"This is all I'm giving back, I don't want anything from you, I won't sue you later, I won't ask for your money either,"

"I just want, after this hopefully we'll never see each other again," Love strengthened her heart, in fact she was about to collapse but she wanted a while more, she said, he must be strong at least while in the presence of Keenan.

"Ka .. You can have it, I've given it to you, so at least take it," Keenan immediately refused the wedding ring and necklace, he did not want Love to let go of everything.

As if Love let go then her relationship and Love would completely end.

Love smiled bitterly, upon hearing the remark, "From the beginning none of these things were mine, I just gave them back, if you don't like it you can throw it away, excuse me!" ketus Love with her remaining pride.

He stood up and put the necklace and ring on the table, he then stepped away.
