Ralf Crisford, is the heir of CGC(Crisford Group Of Company). They are the leading construction company in the business industry in the country. Ralf Crisford is now the president of the company at the age of 28. He's been in the position for 4 years now and admired for his excellent management. But despite all his success in his career, he still does not have the freedom to make decisions in his life. Just like when he was forced to marry a woman he didn't like and abandoned the one he loved the most. The day of his wedding was also the day when his heart was broken. He was waiting in front of the altar for the woman he didn't love who he almost didn't want to look at as she walked slowly wearing her wedding dress approaching him. After the wedding, he didn't waste time and he didn't bother to care for what other people would say and how Roxette would feel when he left that same day. What is important to him is to see Cindy, his girlfriend. But he's too late, she's gone. For three months, he went crazy wondering where Cindy was and never gave up on finding her. Until one day he received news of where she was now. He wasted no time and immediately went to another country to see Cindy. __________________________________ Ralf pov I was overjoyed when I found out where Cindy was. Happiness mixed with fear that she might not accept me anymore now that I am married to another woman. But I promise that my heart has nothing but her. Now that I'm sitting inside the car and waiting to get to the right place, I'm restless.It's like, I want the car to speed up so that I can see her right away. So as soon as the car stopped in front of the hotel where she was staying, I quickly got off. I was so excited to see her and I couldn't wait any longer so I ran into the hotel and no security could stop me, well' they tried but I just ignored them. I let my secretary take care of everything at the lobby and talk to the people there. And now that I'm here right in front of the door of her hotel room. "Finally." I said softly while looking at the room number with my eyes red and slowly recovering from normal breathing. I took a deep breath before I swiped the key card. I don't know how and where my secretary got it but never mind anyway, the important thing is I'm here just right outside her door. I feel like I'm going to shed tears at any moment because I'm now full of emotions. I'm excited to see what her reaction will be when she sees me, I'm sure she'll be surprised. Until I heard a small click on the door after I swiped the keycard I was holding. I swallowed when I grabbed the handle and slowly pushed the door in. Grayish dark ambience and the gloomy smell of the hotel room greeted me. It was so silent and there seemed to be no one in this room. I took a few more steps and before my vision could completely cover the whole room I stopped taking another step. "Ahhh.. huh...ahh! don't rush me baby!. It was a woman's lustful voice. I frowned at what I heard until I saw the overlapping feet of the people under the blanket. I immediately turned around and went back to the door because it looked like I entered the wrong room. "You're driving me crazy Cindy! Until the man spoke, I stopped before my hand reached the door handle to leave the room. But what stopped me the most was what I heard. I immediately turned back and stepped closer to the bed to see it with my own eyes and confirmed my suspicion. The pounding in my chest was too strong and in my mind I was praying that my suspicion was wrong. But I'm not… My lips parted the moment I saw Cindy's face. They had no idea I was there because of the bull****t they were doing. The way she looks now, she looks like this whenever she's in my bed with me. The look and sound she makes when she moans in my ear, this is exactly her. I couldn't take it any longer, I immediately left that room with one of my palms holding my mouth. So I made my way out and stepped faster to get away from that place. Until I arrived outside the hotel where the black car was waiting, my two bodyguards and my secretary were beside it. "Sir, what happened? But I went straight to the back of the car and threw up. I let out everything that was stuck in my throat while my eyes welled up with tears. "Sir Ralf, are you not feeling well?! My secretary asked worriedly, patting me on my back. I feel a cursed feeling right now. My eagerness to see her turned to anger and on the other hand I was telling myself that I wish I hadn't looked for her, So I wouldn't have felt so much pain now. In months we haven't seen each other, she has already done it to replace me, while I, almost crazy to think about where she is. How long has she been like that? I have so many questions that I know only Cindy can answer but I know myself that I can't face her anymore because of what I have witnessed. What is clear to me right now is that the pain I feel is enough to hate her so much. I returned to the country carrying a lot of sadness and pain in my heart. I did nothing but get drunk and drown myself in alcohol until I became numb. But after that, I still wake up with the same pain and questions in my mind. "How could she do that to me while she knows how much I love her? I'm ready to give up everything for her because I thought we felt the same way.. "Did I make a mistake?" Was I wrong to think that she loved me too? Or maybe Grandpa was right? that she just uses me and only wants my wealth. ________________________________ "You know? I'm ready, I'm going to leave it all behind! I'm going to throw away everything I have! "Just for her!" Just for Cindy Bro! But then she did this to me? How? How did she do this to me?! Bro! It hurts! I can't accept it. I can't! I feel the burning sensation inside me from a few bottles of alcohol we've finished. My surroundings start to spin every time I move. But despite this, I was able to release all my anger. I know Marcus is tired of listening to my dramas over and over again. But of course he tolerates it because he is the only friend of mine who can empathize with me. "You know bro? You have a lot, that's enough! I'm taking you home, so you can rest. "Com'on!" Marcus pulled away when I tried to grab another bottle to drink. "Huh? Bro? No, I'm not drunk! Let me drink more! But I'm not in the right mind to insist on what I want. He forced me to stand up and in the next scene, he already drove me home to the mansion. Roxette immediately came forward to catch me when I almost fell. I heard that she and Marcus talked before Marcus left but that didn't register in my brain anymore for I was so exhausted and I just wanted to lie down and sleep. And it didn't take long for me to feel that happened. Even though I closed my eyes, I could still feel the weight of my every breath. This is the feeling I'm looking for in alcohol because it temporarily relieves the pain I feel. Usually, I'm aware of my surroundings when I drink but tonight was different. I feel like I did something against my will but I enjoyed it a lot. "What is it? I can't move my arm, it's like something heavy is on top of it. I tried to open my eyes. A blank white ceiling greeted me goodmorning. I gasped for air and raised one of my palms to my forehead because now I was being attacked by a hangover. "I think I drank too much last night. I whispered then I looked around and realized that I was here in my room in the mansion. And that's when I looked at my right arm that was numb and I couldn't move it for some reason. I saw a woman. "That's why." I even smiled a little and looked back at the ceiling. I don't know who this girl is because she used my arm as her pillow but she had her back on me. Then suddenly I came to realize that I was at home.
