"How long have you been working, huh? why is making a report like this not so good?"

"Ma_sorry Mr."

"What's the apology of this report going to get better, huh? I don't wanna know. Quickly fix it today!! If there's still no change, I'll fire you. Do you understand?"

"I_iya Mr."

Steven rubbed his face rough. Can no one work well? why can't anyone give him satisfactory results?

No, Steve, they're not the ones who're wrong, but you.

Jennifer's rejection three years ago changed Steven. He became cold and arrogant. There is no tolerance for anyone who makes a mistake. Not only that, Steven went crazy working. He is obsessed with being the best and continues to occupy the top position. He did just that to prove that what Jennifer did was wrong. It's a big mistake to let go of a great guy like Steven.

"What's my schedule after this Jams?" ask her personal assistant.

"There is no sir. Today you are free. But tonight there's a party invitation from Mr. Alfa."

"I'm not coming. I'm lazy to the party."

"Good Sir. Here are some papers you need to sign."

"Hm. You can go."

James bowed and left his boss' room. He also did not expect the rejection that Steven experienced 3 years ago impact until now. Even he who is the most loyal to Steven does not escape the spicy bursts of anger of a Steven.

"When are you going to be like this, boss? I miss the old Steven. That's a cheap smile and good." Inner James.

Steven Dexon Archilles can never change until his love returns. Did she choose to wait for Jennifer? The answer is, no. But he asks his men to spy on Jennifer who is currently in Paris. He just wanted to know the development of his former lover's profession. Did he get what he wanted or not?

Well, Steven admits, he hasn't forgotten Jenni. He had no intention of finding a replacement for the woman. He was too afraid they would betray him. Just like Jennifer did to her. What Jennifer did was a betrayal because she preferred her career over her. So don't blame Steven for being ruthless because of the betrayals that people around him have committed. It's outrageous indeed. But he's a Steven, and what Jennifer did was a huge insult to her.

Meanwhile, in a small house with no terraced circumstances that are far from the word luxury. An old woman looks in pain because of her illness. He lay weak and tried to grab the water that was on the nightstand. But when his hand came, it fell and broke.

"Mommy!!! what the hell are you doing? are you all right?" a young woman came and helped her mother sit leaning on the headboard. He also cleaned the broken glass on the floor and put it away.

"If Mommy needs something, why don't you call me, Mom?" that woman is none other than Kate Berley.

"Sstt... Mommy's condition is still weak. Mommy, don't move too much first. Remember the doctor!!" said Kate.

"But Kate, mommy feels useless. It should be mommy who works and meets our needs, not you. Mommy regrets accepting Robert's proposal. If mommy hadn't married him you wouldn't have suffered like this, baby."

Kate wiped Jully's tears. She knows her mother feels guilty because her husband forced Kate to become a thief. But how else, the rice has become porridge. Regretting was useless because they were already in Robert's grasp. Jully could have divorced Robert. But with his circumstances like this, he would not be able to. The punishment he will get.

Jully doesn't want her only daughter to challenge the dangers out there. Kate's job is not only dirty work but also very risky. What if Kate gets caught? what if Kate gets hurt? jully's mind is always unsettled if Robert asks his daughter to steal.

"Mommy take it easy. I'm fine as long as Mommy wants to take care of mommy's health. Promise to heal quickly so we can get out of this hell." exclaimed Kate.

Jully could not help but cry. He hugged his princess. Kate's right, she needs to heal in order to get out of here. He did not want his daughter's sacrifice to be in vain. For that he'll survive for Kate.

"I've been looking everywhere for you here." Robert went into his wife's room and stood near Kate.

"There's something I want to tell you" she continued, staring at Kate.

"Robert, I beg you!! don't ask Kate to steal again. He could be in danger. What if he gets caught and thrown in jail? he could be put to death." Jully hugged Kate. He begged the bastard even though he knew it was a waste.

"You want me to talk here or come with me!!" Robert was too lazy to discuss the same with Jully. Kate is a money printer. So she couldn't possibly let Kate stop stealing.

"All right, I'll come with you."

Robert got out first. Kate calms Jully. He convinces Jully that everything will be fine.

"No Kate!! not anymore."

"Mommy take it easy, okay. All mommy has to do is mendo'a ku so I don't get caught. I believe a mother's prayer is more powerful than anyone." Kate kisses both of Jully's cheeks and catches up with Robert.

Kate knows for a fact Robert wants to give her the task of stealing again. He hopes the task is not difficult and the target is easy to be fooled. Kate is actually tired. But how else. If he refuses, his mother will be the target of Robert's anger.

"Say!!" kate is standing behind Robert.

"New targets. But it's going to be difficult because he's the number one person in the world. I've been investigating it. He's just a regular businessman but has a pretty good bodyguard."

Kate clenched her hands. It felt like he wanted to hit the head of his stepfather's plontos. Ordinary businessman? What if he's an ordinary businessman doesn't guarantee Kate will be caught? Crazy jerk.

"Then?"

"I want you to take his diamond. You remember, a year ago you failed to steal the "Heaven's Light" diamond, a diamond that was worthless. I hear the diamond is on him now."

A year ago? Maybe Kate forgot. He almost lost his life while stealing the "Heaven's Light" diamond". The diamonds are heavily guarded and they have a deadly security system. If Robert doesn't come on time, Kate's name is certain. And now the man wants him to steal another diamond that almost killed him? Maddened.

"I want complete information from the owner of the diamond. Don't let anyone get left behind because I don't want to die silly." Kate went to get Jully a drink. He had to go back to calm his mother because this time the task would be very difficult.

"I know you won't turn her down Kate." Robert sneered.
