"Anya, Raisa came to the house this afternoon and I already reprimanded her. She heard that Uncle Eka already knew about Adrian's problem, so she immediately went home, asking her father for help to stop Eka. Raisa also cares about Adrian," said Maria.
"Sis, I'm not mad at her. After knowing her for a long time, how could I not understand Raisa's nature?" Anya said with a smile.
"She was afraid you would be angry so she went home and looked for a way to make up. When she heard about Adrian's problem, she was also worried. Even if it's a bit of an exaggeration, you're also a mother yourself. You must understand it, right?" Maria said softly.
Seeing that Aiden was waiting for her, Anya said, "Sis, don't worry. I'll tell Aiden. Raisa is Sabrina's aunt. She definitely wanted to be involved in her niece's wedding. I'm not going to just let it go away. With her help, I'm happy too."
Maria laughed. "Talking to you feels so peaceful and pleasant."
"Sorry you got involved because of my problem. Don't worry. I'll talk to Aiden and make up with Raisa," Anya said as she walked towards the dining table.
Aiden pulled Anya's chair so she could sit down and fetched her a bowl of soup.
Adel stretched out her hand and asked for soup. Aiden immediately poured one for her. Seeing that Bella wasn't moving, Aiden took the initiative to call her.
Bella immediately handed him the bowl and thanked him politely.
Anya said a few more things to Maria before ending the call.
"Bella. You're looking tired and thin lately. You don't eat much," said Anya half jokingly.
Bella blinked repeatedly. "Auntie, don't you like skinny girls?"
"I feel that it's important to be healthy. No need to care about body shape. Beauty comes from the heart, not from the outside," after saying this, Anya brought meat and vegetables for Bella. "Eat a lot."
"Thank you, Auntie," Bella accepted happily. Receiving food from Anya made the taste much more delicious.

At that time, Adrian just happened to be home. "Father, Mother, is there any food?"
"Brother Adrian is home. I'll help serve the food for you." Bella immediately put down her spoon and fork, then ran towards the kitchen.
Anya smiled and looked at Aiden, but the man looked disapproved.
"Bella is so nice," said Adel.
"I was able to finish my work quickly today. I haven't been able to have dinner together lately. I didn't expect everyone to be together," said Adrian. After that he went to wash his hands. When he returned to the table, Bella had already prepared the food on her plate and got him some soup.
Anya just ate quietly, while Aiden opened the conversation. "How is Bella's work at the company?"
"Bella is a smart girl. She must be very obedient," Adel teased.
"Adel is right. Bella is smart. She can learn very quickly. Now she is my right hand," said Adrian.
"That's because Adrian is the one who taught me well," Bella tried to be humble.
"When Arka's marriage ends, Bella will return abroad to continue her studies," Aiden said, looking at Bella. "Bella, Adrian is very optimistic about your abilities. You must complete your studies and graduate from college. After that, you can help him in the Pratama Group."
Bella's eyes sparkled. "Uncle, does that mean I can work in the Pratama Group after I graduate?"
"If you have a better choice, you can also refuse," Anya said quickly.
"No, no. I want to work in Pratama Group! I'll study hard!" Bella couldn't hide her excitement. She really likes the working environment at Pratama Group.
Adrian nodded. "I believe that no matter what you do, as long as you work hard, you will definitely succeed."
"I also think that way. My father said nothing is difficult in this world as long as you do it sincerely and wholeheartedly," Bella said proudly.
"Brother Ivan educated you very well. It's better to learn a lot from your father in the future," Anya wanted to continue her words, about to say that Bella shouldn't learn from her mother. But in the end, she restrained herself.

Raisa finally got permission from Aiden to get involved in Arka and Sabrina's wedding again, along with Bella.
Every day Della always pays attention and keeps an eye on Sabrina because of her pregnancy. After work hours, it was Arka's turn to watch over her.
Sabrina felt that she lost her freedom before she got married.
"Brother, I'm not a child. Can you stop worrying so much about me? If you are like this, you will also make me stressed." After coming home from work, Arka picked her up by himself and she was not allowed to sit in the front passenger seat.
"Sabrina, you are not alone now. It's good to be careful," Arka smiled gently.
Sabrina leaned back in her chair and fiddled with her seatbelt. "If I told you I wanted to meet Anna in prison, would you agree?"
"Because of her, we spent three years misunderstanding each other. What's the point of visiting her in prison then? Jail is not good for you. You are pregnant now. Don't go there," Arka immediately opposed her without a second thought.
"Brother, let me go. I want to ask her something," Sabrina said.
Arka didn't know how to reject Sabrina again so he finally agreed. "Fine, I'll arrange it."
…
That night, Arka accompanies Sabrina to meet Anna.
After she was arrested and imprisoned, no one came to visit her.
Her rich lover had left her and her mother did not visit her because she was busy gambling. The friends who were close to her when she was famous had also left her when she was in trouble.
When Sabrina met her, she brought various items for Anna.
"I brought wet tissue for you, I bought this abroad," Sabrina said with bloodshot eyes. "In the past, if you used wet wipes carelessly, you often had allergies, so I bought this brand for you. After that, we rarely kept in touch and weren't close anymore."
Anna just looked at her calmly. "I heard that you and Arka are getting married. Did you come here to show it off to me?"
"Anna, why do you think like that?" Sabrina asked in surprise.
Anna smiled. "Am I really that low in your eyes? Just because my family went bankrupt, everyone looked down on me. Who told you to buy this for me? Even if I have allergies and my skin is rotten, I don't need your pity."
Sabrina didn't expect that Anna would hate her to this extreme. "Anna, have you ever thought of me as your friend? Even if it's only for a short time…"
"When my family was still victorious, I was able to make friends with you because you are the daughter of the Mahendra Family. However, after my family went bankrupt, I remained friends with you because you could help my life. The most important thing is that you have many acquaintances and can introduce me so that I can develop my career," Anna laughed. "Sabrina, if you weren't a child of the Mahendra Family, do you think I would think highly of you?"
Sabrina shook her head repeatedly. "No. Not like this. Anna, why are you doing all this on purpose? Tell me…"
"Don't come here again. I'm not your friend and you shouldn't be friends with someone like me. Three years ago, I had my doubts but I really needed the opportunity. If I wasn't famous, I couldn't make money to pay off my mother's debts. I have never regretted my actions that took advantage of you. I don't regret lying to Arka. But I'm sorry that I couldn't get him." Anna knows that by doing this, she won't be able to be friends with Sabrina anymore.
But she still said it.

It is also my second wish to eventually make this story into a webcomic, either by myself or with a team if possible. Thank you for taking this journey with me, and enjoy reading! ( You can alternatively read books in the series as standalone fictions, but they connect to one another though a running theme and mystery that evolves and progresses with the main character. ) Alternate Blurb for the Singularity Cycle series: Essairyn had never felt truly alive on Earth. It felt like something was missing ever since she was born, but even after nearly 20 years of mundane living, she could never pinpoint what this or the emptiness in her heart was. Suddenly, she awakens in a grandiose, primordial forest and encounters mythical creatures beyond her restless imagination in a parallel world called Sol'h'meyr. She befriends, in particular, a sassy fox-spirit named Akari who reincarnated after three millennia. Essairyn is gifted with abnormal magic, and Akari is being chased by those of her dark past. Together, they set out on an adventure in a world more dangerous than its beautiful facade could hide. Finding new friends along a path riddled with tragedy, Essairyn must learn who to trust as deceit and betrayal lie behind kindly faces. Life in this deceptively promising world slowly spirals down a path of no return. This is not a game, but cruel reality. Her simple adventure became the modest beginnings in a chain of disruptions that tore even the dimensional fabric of time and space. No one, not even Essairyn, was who she thought they were. And not even the fickle gods could change the time-worn destiny of the universes... A single promise shook eternity’s existence.
