Two weeks ago.

John was busy chatting to the Prime Minister in the private event when everyone's eyes turned towards the door, even the Prime Minister looked and parted his lips in shock.

People around whispered a name 'Anna Tang' and by that, John followed the crowd and saw the woman in her long v neck red gown and next to her was a woman in her fifties.

There was chaos after some people tried to talk to her, while John decided to continue with his conversation to the prime minister, ignoring Anna's beauty

"So. You haven't found Andrea? Did you use all of the information I gave?" the prime minister spoke.

John looked at him, the man's was in his seventies, his hair was all white matched this his beard and petite body, the man was just as greedy as him, he wanted to kill Andrea Morsch and announced his son to be the new king of Aldovia.

That was the previous plan, the Prime Minister son was about to be engaged to Althea but the woman died, all the high ranked people in Aldovia knows that Andrea is alive and she has a daughter, that's why they kept the news about the princess death until they found Andrea.

If the other countries were to find out that no one is going to rule the Country, the other countries will mock and judge them which will cause their economy to go down.

Aldovia couldn't afford to have a bad reputation, they have debts and if their alliances find out that they don't have a long a Queen to rule the country, they will have doubt and probably discontinue their business.

John thought at first that it's impossible to keep the news about the Princess death but the Prime Minister was able to find an excuse about the Princess whereabouts. Either she's out of the country or sick. They even edited some of her pictures to show that she's alive.

"I am using all my connection to find them and I believe that sooner or later I will find Andrea Morsch and her family. But let me be clear. What do you want me to do once I find her?" John already knows the answer. The government made a decision that if Andrea and her family are dead they will allow the Prime Minister son to be the new king since the Morsch family last descendants was Andrea

The man smirked, "I need you to kill them and give me their heads" John raised an eyebrow by the monstrous expression on the Prime Minister face.

He was about to continue when they got interrupted.

"John I wasn't expecting to see you here" A man voice spoke from behind. John turned around and saw his friend Ernie and beside him was Anna Tang.

"Hi. Ernie, it's been so long," he spoke in a cheered tone. The man chatted to him and introduced him to Anna.

"You must have known her. She's the supermodel Anna tang" John smile widely and extended his hand to the beautiful woman in front.

"Ms. Tang it's a pleasure to meet you" his eyes shimmered in surprise, the woman in front was even more beautiful closer.

Anna didn't return his smile but she accepted his hand. John wanted to start a conversation but the woman showed a bored expression which made him realized that she didn't find him interesting.

After the two left, John and the Prime Minister continued with their conversation while food and drinks flooded the whole room.

John excused himself to smoke, as he walked to the balcony, he saw Anna leaning on the veranda while holding a wine glass and looking at the night sky.

He observed her for a long time, she's so gorgeous but her eyes gloom in sadness which he couldn't understand. She's famous, rich and beautiful she can get any man she wanted but the woman seems to only like Ken Chu.

He cleared his throat to inform her of his presence. The woman looked at him with flat expression and looked back at the sky again

"Can I join you?" he asked in a soft tone. The woman nodded and he stood next to her.

There was a moment of silence, when Anna was about to walk inside, he grabbed one of her hand to stop her.

"Ms. Tang. You seem so sad. Would you like to talk about it? People around only talk about nonsense and it's kinda boring me" he stared and let go of her hand.

When he thought she will reject, the woman stayed and went back to her previous place.

The woman let out a deep sigh and looked at him.

"What makes you think I am sad?" this was the second time he heard her voice and to him, it's so melodious.

"well... you're alone here and looking at the sky. Only people with a broken heart do that" he tried to make his voice canorous to attract her but her expression remained stone.

"Aren't you?" he asked once again.

The woman smiled for the first time.

"I am not sad or heartbroken. I am angry. My fiancé ran away and the man who helped me forget him loved someone else. Tell me, am I stupid for loving a man who's in love with someone else?" she hurtfully said.

John sighed and turned off his cigarettes.

"No. You're not stupid. Loving someone was never a mistake but you can move on or have revenge depends on what you're heart desire" John suggested.

"Revenge. Ahuh! It should be easy but I can't. I don't have that much power to hurt them" Anna smiled bitterly.

"I can help you" John held her hands.

The woman narrowed her eyes and took her hands back.

"How can you possibly help me? If I don't have enough power how could you?" she spoke in sarcasm.

John swallowed her words and looked at her seductively.

"Sometimes you don't need the power to get revenge but if you don't want then I will take my leave" he excused himself to her.

His feet frost when Anna asked him to stop.

"Tell me more" the woman spoke in curiosity, John hide a victorious smile and went closer to her.

They chatted until dawn and ended up in his hotel room.

-

John senses came back to reality after Anna encircled a hand around his arm and looked at him seductively.

"So, do you know how to help me?" she asked while tugging on his tie.

John sighed and walked towards the house. When he closed the door, he pushed her against the wall and moved closer but the woman avoided his lip.

His eyebrow creased in confusion, he put both hands on her shoulder and ask what's wrong.

We talked about this. We will not involve ourselves emotionally. I am using you to revenge me and in exchange, you can use my body" Anna responded in a cold tone and push him away. She walked to the kitchen and grab a glass of wine.

John watched her and clenched his fist. He remembered Anna's answer when he asked her if there's a chance for them.

That day, she answered him with a stone face and icy tone.

"I will never attach myself to anyone, not even you. Everything I cherish disappears the moment I look away. Nothing I love is permanent so don't expect me to fall in love again" she bitterly said.

He will never forget her face when she said those words. It was full of pain while her eyes fire in anger. Since that day, he realized that he can use her to make his plan work.
