She's hurt

Shouted from Charlie's room, startling Angelica who was outside the gate. She rushed back in and found Benjamin entering the car, of course, this surprised her because he had just come to find Charlie, then Charlie was hysterical in his room.

"They're so weird!"

Not wanting to waste time, Angelica jogged into the mansion and then saw Renee rushing up the stairs, making her even more convinced that this was truly an urgent situation.

"Oh, Lord!"

Angelica ran up and down the stairs until she reached the top floor. She went into Charlie's room and saw him in a rage, breaking his guitar and even breaking the glass table.

"Mr Charlie… stop, I beg you…" Renee begged but didn't dare come any closer because Charlie was still furious and panting.

"Fuck you, you bastard!" Charlie cursed, grabbed a painting on the wall, and slammed it.

prackk...

"Aghhh... I hate, I hate you!" Charlie shouted then kicked anything in front of him.

Angelica was silent with fear, not expecting Charlie to do something as crazy as this. .but seeing him barefoot and kicking anything in front of him while there was broken glass on the floor, made her worry that it would hurt his feet so she immediately ran over to him and hugged him from behind.

"Hey, stop, don't be crazy, don't be crazy!"

"I can't, I hate this fucking life!" Charlie struggled like he was going crazy.

"Calm yourself, Whatever your problem is, you have to control yourself!" Angelica exclaimed, continuing to hug Charlie so tightly, that her body even went back and forth, following Charlie who was struggling.

"Don't mind me, damn it!"

Charlie grabbed Angelica's hand and forced her to let go of her embrace and pushed her away, but instead, she fell near the shattered glass shards.

"Angelica!"

Renee immediately ran, approaching Angelica, who was injured on the palm of her hand due to being hit by broken glass.

Charlie immediately fell silent, gasping for breath, looking at Angelica's hand which was bleeding profusely.

"Angelica...we better get out before he loses control even more and hurts us!" Renee exclaimed as she invited Angelica to stand up.

Angelica released the pain by holding her wrist tightly so that her injured palm didn't feel so painful and the blood didn't keep flowing. She stood up panting and glanced at Charlie who was just silent with a look so cold, it made her feel scared and like she didn't recognize him anymore.

"I don't know, you look scary now," she said worriedly.

Charlie was silent, continuing to look at Angelica's hand.

"Come on, let Andreas take care of it!" Renee exclaimed, embracing Angelica from the side.

Angelica kept glancing at Charlie as she walked out of the room with Renee. She was still confused, in shock, She didn't expect Charlie to go berserk even though this morning he had been so sweet to her since they met, he had always acted relaxed as if he had no problems.

After Angelica left, Charlie went limp, slowly sat on the floor, and leaned against the edge of the sofa. The image of him pushing Angelica to the ground and her hands bleeding haunted his mind, and suddenly he also remembered her mother's face, remembering her message to look after Angelica.

"I'm stupid, I'm always bad at looking after the girl I love! I'm stupid!"

Charlie groaned, looking down and squeezing his hair without caring that his head was starting to hurt. Oh, sad, that man looks so tormented as if drowning in regret and hatred, but who caused all that?

Renee invited Angelica to sit on the sofa, then called Andreas to meet Charlie. After that, she took the first aid kit in the drawer in the cupboard, then approached Angelica who was waiting for him, still holding her wrist.

"I didn't expect him to be like that, does he often get angry?" Angelica asked.

Renee sat next to Angelica. ."I don't know, I'm new here."

"I thought you knew a lot about him..."

"I just know that he is not close to his father he is closer to Gustave," said Renee while cleaning Angelica's wound using a tissue.

Angelica grimaced in pain, looking at her hand which was torn and bleeding continuously until Renee continued to wipe it. "Who is Gustave?"

"A middle-aged man... he was like his confidant, always there for him... even like a father figure to him" Renee explained.

"Then where is he now?"

"He died, about a week ago... he had a heart attack," Renee explained again, turning to open the first aid kit to get a bottle and get another tissue. She poured antibiotic liquid on the tissue, then took Angelica's hand again.

Angelica was silent as if she didn't expect this fact.

"I think he was devastated by Gustave's death... because he had relied on him so much and been so close to him..maybe he loved her too, so when he died, he immediately returned him to his family, then went to Hawaii after burying him," explained Renee while focusing on treating Angelica's palm.

"That's sad," whispered Angelica.

"It's a shame I don't know what happened before... but, what is certain is that he hated his father... I don't know why."

"But his father came with a normal attitude, I mean like there was no conflict with him... his father also looked friendly," said Angelica, remembering Benjamin's face.

"You're right, his father is friendly," replied Renee, nodding her head. "He's nice and friendly...But... maybe there's something that makes Mr. Charlie hate him, even throwing a tantrum when he comes."

Angelica fell silent again, feeling curious but also afraid because it turned out that Charlie was so sensitive. She was afraid that he would lose control again and it would hurt her.

Hawaii, 8:30 a.m.

Darren, along with two of his trusted thugs, got out of his car which stopped in front of Robert's bar. He walked towards the main door which was still tightly closed, then kicked it.

"Robert, Robert!" he shouted with his hands on his hips, so arrogant like a jerk even though his clothes were formal in the form of a black and white suit. "Come out, our business isn't finished yet!"

From inside, one of the thugs who was still sleeping on the sofa immediately woke up. He walked lazily towards the main door and then opened it.

Bughh...

The thug immediately received a blow from Darren. He collapsed, then Darren entered the bar which was empty and messy as if it had been used for a party.

The other two thugs woke up, and from upstairs, Robert hurried across the stairs with an angry look at Darren.

"How dare you throw a tantrum here!" he exclaimed while pointing at Darren.

Darren smiled faintly, looking at Robert, who was now acting bravely towards him even though previously he had always been submissive.

"Our business is finished…."Charlie has given you more money, so don't think you can act arbitrarily here anymore!" shouted Robert, glaring.

"Oh... now you're brave... now you have a new favorite," Darren replied casually, walking around Robert. "It looks like he's so rich... he gave you a lot of money... You even partied here," he continued with a sarcastic smile.

"Of course he's rich, he's much better than you!"

"Oh really?"

"Angelica deserves to be with him more than you!" shouted Robert, glancing at Darren hatefully.

Quickly, Darren immediately grabbed Robert's shirt. "How can you say that after I helped you survive in poverty? Have you forgotten how you kowtowed to me so that I would help you by getting Angelica in return?"

Robert looked up and glanced at Darren angrily.

"Now you let her go with another man, all of you demean me in front of him with 500K dollars? Is that enough? Do you think my pride can be bought?" Darren asked angrily and immediately pushed Robert down onto the table. "It's not worth it! You must pay dearly for this insult!" he shouted.

Robert immediately turned to look at Darren. "I've paid for it! .it's worth my debts. You have to think, you don't deserve Angelica!"

"But that doesn't mean you can trick me, no, I can't accept that!" shouted Darren, then turned to his two thugs. "You guys, search this place, get the money!" he exclaimed again.

"Hey, you can't do that!" Robert approached Darren again.

Darren immediately kicked him, making him fall then stepped on his stomach.

"Ahh!" Robert was in pain, struggling to remove Darren's leg from his stomach which was so painful. He turned to look at his 3 thugs who were just silent. "Hey, stupid. Help me!" he shouted.

The three thugs were about to attack Darren, but who would have thought, Darren took out the gun tucked in his waist and immediately pointed it at Robert's head.

"You come any closer, and his head will explode!" he exclaimed with a sly smile.

The thugs didn't move, afraid that Darren would shoot Robert.

Robert was silent, he could only surrender and let Darren's thugs search the bar, Maybe they would find Charlie's money which he still kept in his room.
