Melbourne, Australia
Giani and Ben are sitting in the living room. They are both watching their grandchildren. As they are busy, a man enters and greets Ben.
"Sir, there's a report from Miss Celine."
"What's going on with Celine?" Giani impatiently asks. Giani immediately hands over their grandchildren to the caregiver.
"Honey, let her speak first." Ben rubs his wife's back who is eager to hear news about Celine, their only daughter.
"Miss Celine is now in San Diego. She's currently with Mr. Roberto's son."
"Roberto's son? You mean Celine is with Damian Roberto?" Ben asks.
"Yes, Sir. Sebastian is still monitoring her."
"Alright, thank you for the report. Tell Sebastian to add more people. Ask Jack to tighten the surveillance on Celine."
"Alright, Sir." After Ben's subordinate leaves, Giani turns to her husband and asks for an explanation.
"Who is this Roberto? Is their family dangerous?" Giani asks anxiously.
"Diego Roberto is my business partner, Honey. Their family is good, but Damian is a little different. He's a mafia, just like me," Ben explains. He feels it's his karma, but he will ensure that their daughter doesn't experience the same hardships as Giani. However, whose fate knows.
Giani remains silent, honestly worried about her daughter. She is afraid that her daughter will suffer the consequences of Ben's past actions.
"You have to contact our daughter and ask her to come back, Honey. I can't bear to see our daughter bear the karma of your past actions."
"That won't happen, Honey. I promise to keep an eye on her."
Meanwhile, at Damian's company, Celine sits lazily on Damian's room sofa. Damian has left her alone in a locked room. Celine is really annoyed with Damian. It's too much for him.
Celine finally decides to lie down. However, as she is about to close her eyes, her phone vibrates. Celine smiles when she sees her Daddy's name displayed on the screen.
"Hello, Dad."
"Hi sweetheart, where are you?"
Celine directs the camera to show Damian's room.
"I am currently being locked up here by that annoying man, Dad."
"Do you need help?" Ben asks to make sure.
"No, Dad. I can handle it," Celine says.
"Always be careful, Sweetheart. Damian is not an ordinary person. Do you still have your weapon?" Ben asks to make sure.
"Yes, Dad, I still have it. Don't worry."
After talking about various things for quite some time, Celine finally turns off her phone. She lies back down on the comfortable sofa. After a while, Celine slowly falls asleep.
Celine doesn't know how long she has been sleeping, she doesn't even realize that Damian has been sitting and staring at her beautiful face intently.
"Beautiful," Damian whispers softly while stroking Celine's cheek. Celine opens her eyes. Her gaze meets Damian's, he smiles and once again caresses Celine's face.
"Are you tired?"
"No, I'm just sleepy."
Sleep in my private room. I'll be here a little longer because I still have to deal with a sudden problem.
"Can I go to the cafe across the company?"
"No. If you want coffee or snacks, I will ask Chester to buy them for you."
"It's not about that, Dam. I'm bored, I need a refreshing view," Celine says.
"Just look at me, baby. My face is very refreshing," Damian says confidently.
"You're so annoying!" Celine folds her arms over her chest. Damian chuckles. He finally walks towards Celine, Damian gently strokes her hair.
"What will you do outside?"
"I want to sit there, order a cup of machiato, and enjoy a slice of cake."
"Kiss me first, then I'll give you permission."
Celine immediately glares, her eyes widen. The girl stands up and puts her hands on her hips. Damian just looks at her calmly.
"You really test my patience, Giani. Do you think I'm the kind of woman who constantly comes to you and begs for your love?"
"I don't even let anyone get close to me, Ben. You are the first girl to have that privilege."
"Hahaha... You're really good at making jokes. You must have done a lot with your cheating girlfriend, do you think I'm a naive and foolish girl?"
"Damian!!" Chester suddenly shouted, calling his assistant. Celine was startled by Damian's voice.
"Yes, sir." Chester immediately entered Damian's room.
"Now you ask my assistant. Have I ever touched Zenya?" Damian challenged Celine.
"Do you think I care whether you've touched her or not? I'm not jealous of you, Mr. Damian. I just need my freedom."
Chester remained silent. This was the first time he saw his boss behave like this. Chester thought maybe his boss had fallen in love with his own prisoner. However, he had not realized it yet.
