Somewhere, a man was standing staring at a large frame in front of him. He enjoyed the beauty in that frame.
"Have you found it?"
Another man approached her with a glass of Brandy in his hand.
"Yes, she's getting pretty!" The man sucked his cigar, with eyes still admiring the frame in front of him.
"He's too strong! You won't be able to manipulate him!" The man raised the glass in his hand, turned the contents inside the glass, then gulped down Brandy slowly.
"Because of that, I like it more and more. I like him who's not easy to bully."
The man stared at the frame with a gaze full of obsession. For him what he wants must be his. How is it possible?
"Dad won't approve! If you want to be with him! You know that!"
"I'll eliminate him! If he tries to interfere in my affairs!" His eyes lit up showing solemnity in each of his words. He will get rid of whatever is blocking him.
"Hopefully succeed, brother!" The man patted her brother on the shoulder, then left her in the room itself.
His brother is very dangerous if he wants something. Even though it's not his. He is the man behind the success of this group.

After breakfast with Jessi, Nich goes to his office. It appeared that a cold and expressionless person was already waiting for him to give a report.
"What did you get?" Nich put his ass in his big chair.
"Master, someone seemed to have been waiting for the Madam's arrival at that casino for quite a long time. Previously he had already hired a servant who welcomed him, and when the Madam entered his trap, he was already inside the room first! Lucky you're coming soon. So, he directly walked out of the room!"
Prude!!!
Nich clenched his hand squeezing a glass that was already available on his desk, until it broke. His face was red, his anger mounting to hear others trying to harm his future wife. I will not let your plan succeed!
"Do you know who he is?"
"No, Mister. He used an artificial face to disguise."
"Artificial face!" Nich begins to think, an enemy who even has to use a mask to hide his identity. He is clearly no ordinary person. Nich squinted his eyes. "How could he let my wife off guard?"
"The servant, already sprayed something before he greeted Madam!"
"What did he give you?" Nich is getting curious about the guy who's trying to play nice with Jessi.
"We don't know yet, sir. It looks like something that's being extracted into a perfume!"
"What about the waiter now?"
"He's been wiped out by her."
The enemy this time was dangerous, he didn't even leave any evidence to find him. Nich should be even more vigilant in looking after Jessi.
"You! Protect my wife from afar! Don't let him know and don't let him get hurt! If that happens, I'll melt you down!" The man bowed and left Nich alone in the room.
The shadow guard Nich did indeed only perform special tasks given by his Master. They can only be accessed by one Nich, and only listen to his orders.
Nich was thinking, who is going after Jessi? Tom Evening is gone, is there another enemy who wants Jessi's life, or even likes it and wants to have it? Nich's eyes lit up imagining it. He would not let anyone take his wife from his side. Jessi is his, that's how it is forever. He will protect hers at all costs.
His premonition spoke ill of this one enemy. Nich feels he should be on his guard now. If he can let Jessi off guard, then he's not an easy person to beat.
Tok to tok.
Willy's knocking sound blew his daydream.
"Lake in!"
Willy leaned into Nich's room.
"Send him to wait a minute! I'll clean my hands first. You, get someone to clean this up!"
Nich stood up from his chair, fresh blood still flowing from his hands to the floor.
Willy who saw that was shocked to see his master's hand covered in blood.
"You're hurt, sir!"
"Just a small matter, I can take care of it. You just do my orders! Then let Damien in!" Nich went to his own special room behind a shelf. He washed his hands, cleaned the flowing blood, then wrapped it himself with a bandage.
Moments later, Nich walked out of his private room. It seemed that Damien was already sitting waiting for him with some documents in front of him.
Damien saw Nich's bandaged hand. "Are you hurt, sir?"
"Just a little scratched."
Nich's mood today was bad, but he couldn't avoid today's meetings.
They discussed the cooperation that would be done. Nich carefully read each file submitted.
Damien Barrack is a thirty-nine-year-old Diamond and Gem entrepreneur. He is the owner of Barrack Corp. a company making and processing high-value precious stones, such as: Intan, Sapphire, Ruby, Emerald, Amethyst, Kalimaya, Zircoun, and Marzan. He is expanding his wings in Country N through cooperation with Bannerick Group.
Nich reads every document and discusses it with Damien how good it is. He looked at the sample picture of a precious stone that made him feel interested, a blood-red precious stone. Nich's eyes seemed to be fascinated with the red stone, looking like a Jessi figure to him.
"Give me this stone! I'll buy it personally."
Damien saw what Nich wanted. "Oh, Mr. Nich does have high taste, this is Sunrise Ruby. This ruby is sold at a price of 30.42 million USD per carat, while this blood red ruby weighs 25.58 carats."
"No problem, I want you to turn it into a simple necklace! You're turning it into a water droplet! Don't be too flashy, I want to look simple. Can you do it in three days!"
Damien widened his eyes. Three days was too short a time to polish the precious stone, but he did not want to disappoint Nich. "Alright, I will immediately arrange for its manufacture in that time. By the way, did Mr Nich prepare it for Miss Jessi?"
Nich immediately looked at Damien with a look of dislike, his eyes hinting at hostility. The burning jealousy made his mood even worse. "Why is Mr Damien questioning my personal affairs?"
"Sorry, Mr. Nich. If my question offends you! I just feel Mr. Nich and Miss Jessi are very compatible." Damien smiled faintly, he who realized Nich's jealousy felt funny.
Nich just nodded his head, but his heart was hot. Next they only discuss business issues, until it is finished.
"Thank you for the consideration, Mr. Nich. It's nice to work with you!" Damien extended his hand to Nich.
Nich returned Damien's hand. "Together, I'm happy to be working with you, Mr. Damien!"
"In that case, I say retreat first!"
Nich just turned his hand towards the door.
After Damien came out, Willy came in with a report. "Master, any new brands want to propose cooperation with us?"
"Who?" Nich turned the paper in front of him.
"Brand belongs to Miss Emily Night."
