"I still don't understand, why do you want to stay away from your husband when you're pregnant? In the past, when you were still in my womb, I always wanted to be near your father." Andrea Swift placed the cup of tea on the table beside the wooden chair Taylor was sitting on.

Taylor smiled at her and said, "Thank you for the tea, Mom." Andrea sighed and nodded her head.

"I hope Harry comes to pick you up." Andrea said. Taylor raised an eyebrow.

"So you don't like it when I'm here?" Taylor asked, frowning. Andrea shook her head.

"It's not like that, Taylor. It's just that, I'd like to suggest that you and Harry stay here. I also want to know the progress of your pregnancy." Andrea held her breath.

"Aren't you afraid of being far from your husband?" Andrea asked, putting on a confused face. Taylor chuckled and shook her head.

Taylor hasn't told her mother about Harry and Emily's affair at all. Taylor prefers to remain silent and keep it as a secret from her parents, remembering that the affair also happened because it was intentional.

Andrea lightly tapped Taylor's shoulder. "See? You've probably have thought about  him, right? I guessed it from the start. You wouldn't be able to last long without him. Therefore, I suggest you call him and ask him to come here."

Taylor shook her head. "Mom, calm down. Harry will definitely come soon. After the business is over."

"What business?" Andrea asked curiously. Taylor smiled thinly.

"I can't tell you, Mom. But all you have to do is to trust Harry and I."

━━

Harry didn't know how long he would stop playing this role. For almost a week he had become the figure of Harry who was rude and had no manners in front of his parents. It had been almost a week since Taylor left and Harry already misses her badly.

Harry sat back and leaned his back against the accent chair in his study. Harry took a breath and looked at the small frame on his desk. The frame contains a picture of him and Taylor, it was a selfie. Harry had his mouth slightly agape while Taylor frowned playfully.

A smile appeared on Harry's lips. Harry stroked his thumb over on Taylor in the photo and whispered, "I miss you."

Some people might call him crazy or out of his mind, but he kissed the photo, specifically on Taylor. "I want to see you soon." Harry sighed.

Harry stopped staring at the photo when there was a sudden knock on his door. Harry put the picture frame back on the desk and said firmly, "Enter."

Shortly thereafter, someone entered the room. Harry looked at him sharply. It was Adam. Adam had indeed gotten a new study, right next to Harry's. For this time, Harry asked Adam to come into his room.

"What do you want?" Adam asked straightforwardly to Harry.

"You sabotaged my car this morning." Harry answered calmly. Adam raised an eyebrow.

"What do you mean by 'sabotaging', Harry Edward Styles?" Adam folded his arms in front of his chest.

"Don't act like you don't know what I'm talking about. You did something on my brake pedal. I have pretty strong evidence for your actions."

Adam closed his eyes and sighed. "Fine, fine. I confess. Yes, I did something to your car brake. I forgot that there's a handful cameras around the house. I should've done it more carefully, with a disguise perhaps?"

"I can report you to the police. You can go to jail and this business will be over." Harry said calmer than Adam.

Adam raised an eyebrow. "Just do it if you want."

Harry shook his head. "No. I don't want to make Grandma more stressed than she already is. She's already old and I should give her good memories before she goes passes away." Adam squinted skeptically .

"You're praying that Grandma dies, aren't you?!" Harry raised an eyebrow.

"No, absolutely not." Harry sat up straight again.

"I love Grandma very much and I want her to be happy." Adam just kept quiet. His eyes was glaring intently at Harry.

Harry's fingers tapped on the cold surface of the desk several times. Harry folded his hands on the table before saying, "Explain to me on what's your initial goal towards my family from the beginning."

Adam looked surprised at the question but, a moment later, a crooked smile appeared on his lips.

"I already knew it. You and Taylor, you both already solved your problems between each other. And you even asked Taylor to go back to Nashville, so she won't be involved, right?"

A grin appeared on Harry's lips. "Yes. You're right. Please sit down. It looks like we will have a lot to talk about."

Harry pointed to the chair in front of him. Adam was still standing before Harry, who had been sitting on his swivel chair ever since he arrived. Adam pulled the chair and sat quietly. Their strong gazes never leaving at each other.

"You can explain your plan on how you were ruining and destroying my family."

Adam shook his head. "There aren't many plans. I just wanted to get a high position in the company, just like you. Now, I've finally got it." Adam smiled sardonically. Harry raised an eyebrow.

"Then why do you still intend to harm me?" Harry asked while Adam shrugged his shoulders.

"I don't know. It seems like I've always had the instinct to look after you long ago. I'm just sick of seeing you. Maybe if you get lost from this world, my life would be better than now. I'll be the leader of the Styles family. . ."

"You're not interested in business." Harry cuts quickly. Adam chuckled.

"That was when before I knew what profits I could get from business. I could buy whatever I wanted and maybe. . . I could even get Taylor."

Hearing that, Harry's eyes flashed again. For some reason, it felt like Harry wanted to kill this young man every time he said Taylor's name and his stupid dreams.

"You really like my wife, eh?" Harry's asked while Adam smiled.

"Since I saw her, I was indeed interested in her. She and I will definitely be the hottest couple."

"In your dreams, Adam Styles." Harry replied which Adam replied with a snort.

"I have all the evidence. Everything you've done. I could've reported it to the police about all of this." Harry opened the drawer and pulled out camcorders from there. Harry turned on the camcorders.

Adam widened his eyes when he looked at the video on the camcorders. Isn't that. . . Samuel?

Samuel lowered his head in the video. With a trembling voice, he said, "Yes, I raped Gemma. I mixed sleeping pills in her drink and after she fell asleep, I played with her unconscious body. At first, I didn't want to do that. Gemma. . . Gemma is a very good and innocent girl. I love her. But on the other hand, I really needed the money. The man gave me a lot of money after successfully doing what he wanted: to destroy Gemma. I'm really sorry."

Harry turned off his camcorders. Adam's eyes rounded. "H-how do you–"

"I also still have a video of Emily's confession. Before I fired her, I forced her to be tell me about everything. Apparently, she's also working with this plan of yours, right?" Adam bowed his head. Harry smiled with satisfaction.

"You ruined my sister's life, you made my mother sad, you gave bad memories to Grandma and you almost ruined my relationship with Taylor. You really planned this thoroughly, didn't you?" Harry applauded with a sinister smile.

Adam raised his head and smiled sarcastically. "I didn't think you could find out and solve everything. I guess you really are smarter than me than I would've thought." Adam rose to his feet, Harry looked at him cautiously.

"But you can delay by giving the video to the police, because you still have to be able to get away from the last game. It's not over yet, so be careful." A devilish smile appeared on Adam's lips before stepping outside, leaving Harry who has been furious.

Last game? What did Adam mean by that? Harry thought to himself. It looks like this game isn't finished yet after all. . .
