Under His Temptation
Ansel Balder has it all. Good looks, wealth, and position. People considered him a helpful and kind man, not knowing the scandals he kept from the world. Ansel Balder loves his own employee's wife. When Matthew Tjia offers Daphne Tjia, his daughter in exchange for paying off his debt, Ansel Balder agrees. Not to make her his wife, but to make Daphne Tjia as bait for fishing, Rachel Colleen the dark lover, to be jealous and willing to accept his proposal. Then, will Ansel Balder be caught in a trap he made himself?
Chapter 90
Watching the sleeping twins' faces with their mouths still faithfully sucking on formula-filled pacifiers was a touching sight for Ansel Balder. They stroked their soft, tanned hair, kissed them affectionately and with tears, and then looked out the window. The wind blows on Ansel Balder's tired face at the end of summer when the song's longing is still heard.
I'm here without you, baby.
But you're still on my lonely mind.
I think about you, baby, and I always dream about you.
I'm here without you, baby.
But you're still with me in my dreams (3 doors down)
The man's tears fell again, even how many times he couldn't count every time he heard the verse of a song that was now his favorite. Every time he looks at his two children, what comes to Ansel Balder's mind is always Daphne Tjia. Even though time has passed for almost a year or even the second year after his death, the inner wounds that perforate the heart cannot be closed so easily.
