Chapter 11
Henry completely let himself go, spending most of his time partying with different women at clubs.]]
Entertainment news reported that he was even keeping an 18–year–old model in a luxury apartment in the residential district.[]
Sekar stopped crying and throwing tantrums at home. Instead, she started stalking Henry.[]
Finally, one night, she caught Henry with his kept young model at the luxury apartment.[]
She didn’t hesitate to burst in, grabbed the girl’s hair, and beat her furiously.]]
At first, the girl tried to dodge and hide, feeling guilty. But when Sekar showed no signs of stopping, she finally exploded. The two women clawed, kicked, and pulled each other’s hair.
Screams and the sound of furniture crashing filled the air.]]
When Henry arrived, he found a horrific scene–both women covered in blood, hair scattered in clumps on the floor, bodies covered in bruises.
The young model screamed in terror: “She’s insane! Completely insane!”
Even with her arm bleeding, she ran out without looking back.]
Sekar lay curled in agony on the floor.
A large pool of blood slowly seeped beneath her.
She lost the baby.
Shortly after, her family came from Indonesia.]]
A burly old man in a faded floral shirt and traditional embroidered cap sat stiffly in the Carter family living room.]]
“You people have bullied my daughter! We are descended from royalty–we have noble blood!“]]
He slammed his walking stick on the marble floor for emphasis.[]
“I demand an explanation today, or I’ll report this to the consulate, even the State Department. Let’s see how you handle charges of abusing international guests.“]
Anne had clearly reached her limit.
“Sir, what exactly do you want?”
The old man looked around the living room, eyes gleaming, then held up two fingers.
Julian and I exchanged glances. Two million or twenty million?
Seeing the confusion on our faces, he said through gritted teeth:
“Twenty thousand. Not a penny less.”
Julian and I looked at each other in shock, barely suppressing our laughter.
Before we could speak, Henry dropped to his knees, begging Anne:[]
“Mom, give them more money and have them take Sekar away. I can’t stand her anymore.“[]
Anne paused, then finally softened her tone.

“Sir, given the current situation, perhaps it’s best if the children separate. Of course, we owe Sekar an apology. We can offer compensation–what do you think is appropriate?”
The old man hesitated.
Finally, he muttered:[]
“Two hundred thousand. I’ll take her back to Indonesia immediately. She won’t bother you anymore.“[]
Then he added proudly:]
“In Indonesia, to marry an excellent girl like Sekar, you’d need to bring a cow and six goats. I’m being merciful to you.“[]
Henry immediately nodded.[]
“Deal. Two hundred thousand, but if Sekar doesn’t leave with you, you won’t get a penny.”
The old man smiled sinisterly.[]
“Don’t worry. One pill, and she’ll be as docile as a lamb. She’ll sleep all the way home.“]
“I’ve already found her a new husband back home. Once she’s there, they’ll naturally keep her in line. Beat her if necessary.”
Everyone in the room stared at each other in shock.[]
Henry immediately escorted him to the hospital.
When they returned, sekar was already on a plane back to her country, completely returned to her original world.[]
Julian began transferring company operations back domestically, rarely leaving my side.[]
Whenever Henry looked at me with those familiar mournful eyes, Julian would glare at him, followed by a stern lecture.]]
Within two months, Henry couldn’t stand the tense atmosphere anymore.
He volunteered to go abroad to develop new markets.
Julian was thrilled.
He immediately booked flights and had Henry out of New York within 48 hours.
That night, as we lay in bed, we both felt relieved.[]
Julian smiled happily:[]
“Vivian, now that no one’s watching you anymore, I can finally relax.“]
He pulled me into his arms

“From now on, I’ll never let go. Wherever I want to go, I’ll go, just to be with you. You’ll be the happiest woman in the world.“]
I smiled, finally free, finally at peace–with the man I love by my side, ready to chase every corner of the world together.
