Trapped by One Night's Mistakes
Chapter 43

This afternoon Kenedy called Jovan into his room, the middle-aged man's face was clearly unfriendly. Earlier this morning Queen submitted a copy of the proposal made by Jovan as well as a recording of Rafael's voice as evidence of cheating Papa's confidant.

"What do you mean do all this, haa ...?" Kenedy spoke in a high tone while throwing the proposal that Queen had given him this morning in front of Jovan.

"Ma-sorry, Sir. I don't mean anything, I'm just khilaf and less careful in making a price on the proposal." Jovan tried to defend himself.

"Khilaf ...? You're not new to this company, and mistakes like this don't make sense. As a result you've already made Kingdom lose and embarrassed, you even deliberately provoked me to blame Queen."

"That's not true, sir! I didn't mean it that way." argued Jovan. She knows it's all Queen, but she can't do much because Queen's US card was lost with her phone that was robbed yesterday.

"Then what about this?" Kenedy played Rafael's voice recording. Jovan's eyes were so round, he was completely shocked to death.

Shit! Where did they get the tape?

"How, Jo? You still want to defend yourself? You've obviously cheated! I don't like cheating in my company, you humiliate me!"

"It's not true, sir! This must be Queen's wits. He conspired with the people in Emperor to destroy me." Jovan still insists on not confessing. From the corner of his eye he knew the Queen standing beside Kenedy was smiling triumphantly.

"What basis do you dare accuse my daughter of being reckless?" snapped Kenedy.

"Because Queen is in a relationship with Prince, so Prince always comes to the Kingdom to look for him. They even kissed in Kingdom's parking lot. I'm sure they must have had a purpose in doing this." Jovan accused.

Kenedy stares at Queen with a difficult look, but the beautiful woman immediately denies it.

"Lied, Pa! I have nothing to do with the people in Emperor, it is precisely this bastard who has a relationship with the Emperor CEO, and now they are having a sit-down, so the Emperor CEO exposed his fraud. He obviously wants to destroy me and the Kingdom." said Queen.

"That's not true! I can't possibly destroy the person I love." Jovan replied. "Queen, I know you're hurting so you did all this to me. I'm sorry, Queen." Jovan turned to look at Queen with a pleading gaze. Obviously he was playing a show.

Queen and Kenedy were stunned to hear Jovan's remark, this made Queen get a sharp gaze from Kenedy. The beautiful woman fell silent, she did not know what to say, because what Jovan said was true.

"What does this mean?" kenedy asked confusedly.

"Me and Queen have been in a relationship, even I intend to marry her if she graduates, but it turns out that you have betrothed Queen to someone else. But we've been in long distance contact for almost five years, we love each other, sir" Jovan said.

"What's that, Queen?" Kenedy looked up more and more.

"Queen, replied Papa!"

"Yes, Pa. But we broke up, he cheated on me with my own friend." Answer Queen lirih. His eyes began to glaze over, he recalled that painful day.

Buugh ....

A punch landed heavily on Jovan's face, the selfless man staggered back.

"That's the payoff because you hurt my daughter. Now also lift your feet from here! I fired you!" kenedy is full of emotion.

"But, Mr ...."

"Get out!!!"

Jovan passed away feeling furious while holding his jaw throbbing due to a blow from Kenedy.

After Jovan's departure, Kenedy turned his gaze to the Queen who was still bowed in fear.

"Papa's disappointed in you. Turns out you're not the kind of submissive girl Papa is proud of, you lied to Papa."

The clear liquid that had flooded the Queen's eyes, now fell spilled wet her cheeks. "I'm sorry, Pa. When Papa said he was going to match me up with Kai, I was already in a relationship with Jo. I loved him then."

Kenedy took a deep breath, "Do you still love him?"

Queen shook her head. "not anymore. Now I hate him so much, Pa."

Kenedy smiled and pulled Queen into his arms. "That's it. This time I'm sorry, but this is the last one. Remember, you already have Kai. Papa doesn't want our family to be ashamed of your behavior."

The Queen's heart suddenly ached at the words of the Papa, she remembered the Emperor and Prince at once.

I'm sorry, Pa. I'm sorry, Kai. I have disappointed you.
