Like a relentless storm in his life, one by one problems came crashing down, seemingly unwilling for the girl to breathe quietly.
Actually what happened to his life first, what sins did he do in the past until the girl experienced this kind of trial?
God, if I have any past mistakes, please forgive me. Let this be the last disaster of my life. I will not be able to do it again if I have to get one more disaster.
That sentence was always the mantra that the girl uttered in her every prayer. Yes, only pray that the girl can do, rely on the powerful, ask forgiveness of Him.

Evelyn's phone vibrated on the nightstand next to the hospital gurney, her Mommy's bed.
He can see the call from Uncle Gerry. Doubtfully he picked up the flat object hesitantly, as every Uncle Gerry contacted him, it must have been bad news that always came from the man's mouth. Let's just hope this isn't bad news, Evelyn chanted a prayer in her heart.
"Hello Uncle...?" greet Evelyn when she raised the call.
"Hello Miss Eve.." said Gerry from there.
"What's wrong Uncle?"
"Look, Miss, it looks like I've found a way for Mr. Alex's company to be saved." Gerry said.
"Is it really Uncle..?" evelyn asked, she was still a little doubtful.
"Yes Miss....But Miss Eve there are things that Miss must do first, maybe it's hard for Miss, but this is the only way to save Mr. Alex's company" Gerry said slowly.
"Let's just say Uncle, I'm definitely willing to do it, whatever it is." Evelyn said in spirit.
"I can't talk about it over the phone Miss, we'd better meet up first."
"Well Uncle, we meet now at a regular place near the hospital."
"Isn't this too hasty Miss?"
"No Uncle, the sooner the company is saved, then the costs for Mommy's therapy will not be hampered again."
"Alright then, I'll be leaving soon Miss."
A thank you becomes the closing sentence of their call.
Evelyn is thrilled that her Daddy company could be saved, and the cost of her Mommy therapy will definitely not be hard anymore.
"Thank God, You have paved the way for me, I know you will not give trials that your people cannot pass." Evelyn said.

"How's Mrs Anastasia doing, Miss?" gerry asked after sitting across the chair from Evelyn.
"I'm very pleased with the news Miss, I hope Mrs Anastasia is healthy and I will try to get her out of jail as soon as possible. Then the Miss's family will gather as before." Gerry's words were indeed Evelyn's greatest source of spirit.
Imagining his family would gather like he used to make his tears drip from the corner of his eye.
He was so moved, after the various calamities that came over, they would finally be reunited.
"Thank you Uncle, I don't know anymore how to repay uncle, Uncle was so good to us" Evelyn said sincerely.
"Don't be too proud Miss, I'm doing this because I love Miss's family."
"Yes Uncle. Thanks again."
"Together Miss."
Their conversation came to a halt as the maids arranged their orders on the table.
"Oh yes Uncle, said Uncle I have to do something to keep Daddy's company safe, what is Uncle?" ask Evelyn.
Gerry still hesitates to say it, but how else, this is the only way for his master's company to survive.
"Look Miss Eve, there's a company that's willing to reinvest its investment in Miss Shura Company."
"Repart?" ask Evelyn.
"True Miss, this company is a giant company in our country. We used to have a partnership with a branch of their company. As I said the other day, that almost all the companies we work with, are pulling their shares from SC Group." Gerry paused his sentence for a moment.
"I've been going to several companies for a few weeks to work together, but no one has accepted us, they've lost faith in us, because of rumors that have been circulating about Mr. Alexander.
But, in my last attempt, I did not expect that this giant company would help us." explained Gerry
"Gee, it looks like the owner of the company is a good person, I would be very grateful to him for being willing to help us." Evelyn smiled sincerely.
"But Miss, this company helps us solely not because it believes in us. They just pity us, and they help us not for free. They are asking for a reward for this Miss." said Gerry languidly.
"Say Uncle, what do they want?"
"I know it's hard for Miss, but how else, this is the only way to save the Big Master's company."
"Just tell Uncle what to do, I'll do it while I'm still able to."
Gerry took a deep breath, "They want Miss to marry the owner of that company."
