My Last Wedding Chance
Chapter 76 The Way You Move

Harumi & Anton, Bristol

2 Am Early Day

Blades of dim light came out of the small room of the Work Room Door, Anton had not slept when the time had shown at 2 am. He was still sitting leaning back in the work chair, staring at his Laptop screen.

The man looked relaxed with a cotton brown shirt, but was unable to cover up the anxiety of his face where his eyes were dark under empty eyes.

Every now and then he rubbed his face with both palms until squeezing the nape of his neck that felt heavy for him, his hair was messy, Anton was not as usual. He is always perfectionist and full concentration with his work routine, such as melding along with frustration.

It was as if black clouds were circling around him. And he can no longer survive longer with the dark conditions that due to the departure of Harumi.

Of course, the man was already very riled up, anxious with the maximum level, his eyes were busy as it was unceasingly moving the ball gazing from the laptop screen to the screen of his phone.

Anton contacts Harumi many times, but the woman's phone is still inactive.

His mind floated with various negative atmospheres and panic due to frustration by Harumi who never gave him news.

Just a few days after Harumi went to New York, the man's body weight seemed to be decreasing. Each night, Anton spends his time drinking only glasses of whiskey before he goes to sleep.

The light bias of the laptop reflected on his face, vividly illustrating the deep anxiety and the thrashing suspicion incited his mind.

Yeah, of course in Anton's mind there is a glimpse of the thought that haunts him if the wife is now hiding something there.

It was indeed ridiculous for Anton to suspect Harumi, as he felt that a woman would not be able to play Fire behind him.

Anton's head looked up at the ceiling in the room, his gaze as if glaring and summarizing everything in nature with Harumi these past two weeks.

The man felt all over his body coldly blocking each joint of his nerve section due to the silence and the small sound in his mind that wanted him to immediately follow Harumi there.

Harumi is part of her life, even part of all of her career. Unable to have to separate so far with the infrequence of them communicating with each other makes Anton's mind continues to be tormented and raged by evil thoughts of whatever his wife did while he was there.

He was aware, how the treatment and abusive speech that was not infrequently thrown to Harumi when he was being triggered by emotions. Mistake after mistake continues to be thrown to the wife due to her carelessness that has eliminated their baby candidates.

Anton immediately put an end to all the negative thoughts that affected him and began reaching for his phone to contact someone in the early hours like this.

"Hallo" Anton's hoarse voice

There was a faint sound from behind the man's cell phone.

While still sticking the phone in his ear, Anton moved to lower some of his body to open the bottom drawer of his workbench to pick up the Document with a brown Map that Harumi had found before.

Opening the Secret document, then talking back to the person "i've sent the money this month, it should have been more than enough for his needs" Anton said

"Never see me, everything is in accordance with our agreement. That my only obligation is to finance the boy. Not being a father to him" Anton continued with a loud jolt ending the conversation.

Anton clasped his cell phone tightly, then his lips tightly closed in a line, his chest moving up and down pumping exhaling very quickly. Now his expression turned instantly hateful after contacting the person.

For a moment Anton just sat there staring sheet by sheet inside the Brown Map. I don't know what he's hiding from Harumi. But it's something his wife doesn't want to know the truth about.

At 11:15 am

"Well, it's time you explained to me, Rumi !!!" cathy said with an intimidating tone

The time almost shows daylight, of course Cathy's arrival was greeted enthusiastically by Harumi at the Penthouse. Although the first sentence said is "You're Crazy, Rumi !!" instead of say hello, Cathy who is impatient to read with various questions and lots of chatter from her best friend. Don't want to worry about how Harumi really feels right now.

Twenty minutes earlier, Cathy was picked up by Liam's messenger to the Art Gallery.

Because she knows that Cathy started her new job as Assistant Curator at Anita's Gallery today.

Of course Scarllet who picked her up with a private driver Liam made Cathy rebelled.

Initially Cathy was quite astonished and wanted to shout to think this was like a kidnapping due to seeing the appearance of Scarllet all black, speaking as necessary with a flat expression inviting Cathy into the car.

But Cathy finally shut up, after the Woman Guards mentioned Harumi's name before her. He softened, and followed their will, although Cathy did not fully believe.

Upon arriving at the Goddes Palace, Cathy was astonished by the luxury of the multi-storey building, and was escorted to the entrance of the Penthouse.

Cathy is very familiar with Goddes Palace, because she used to work as a staff in the Marketing department for 6 months until finally she was stopped due to a scandal with one of the Men Residents of the Apartment there.

It was the most luxurious and highly Expensive apartment building in the Manhattan area even in all of New York.

Only people from the upper class ranging from famous Celebrities, Named Entrepreneurs and high-ranking people living in such elite areas.

Cathy still couldn't think normally and was full of questions in her brain how could her best friend be in a place like this.

It had crossed Cathy's mind that Harumi was used as a Savings Woman. Especially after last night, she witnessed for herself how Liam's surprised and agitated expression when she heard Harumi's name, and Cathy found out who the man was and how Liam's popularity in the eyes of the Women around him.

But quickly, He removed and removed the ugly mind from his brain, for him there was no way his best friend would do that.

Yeah, as Cathy knows, Harumi is a normal, nice girl, and even her experience in men's affairs has been minimal since they were in college. So it's very unlikely, it's impossible. Cathy momentarily shook her head so that she could think clearly and reset her mind.

As the door opened after the bell rang, Cathy's eyes widened, he was shocked when he saw the woman from behind the open door and of course Harumi's appearance is very beautiful and classy like the Big Lady at the Penthouse.

Just overnight, Cathy witnessed her best friend's change so quickly. It was as if the world sucked up all of Harumi's past that he knew and presented himself as new and certainly very different and expensive.

Cathy stared unwittingly at the opening of her lips at every inch of Harumi's appearance from the heels she wore to the expensive clothes of famous designers and her increasingly wavy hairstyle hanging beautifully on her shoulders.

The diamond jewelry that adorned her sweet fingers, the necklace that coiled around the woman's neck was so shiny inscribed with the best quality diamonds, the best quality, it is worth the white Harumi makes Cathy even more silent and unable to recognize who is the woman who is now in front of her.
