Yuriska Novita's viewpoint.   I parted with Chan in front of the Pacific Place lobby. My heart was actually not willing to separate from men as handsome as him. Especially after knowing the genius capacity of his brain, I really increasingly admired him. Maybe this person could help me uncover the case that happened to my sister, Rosalia.   I needed to approach Chan and made him my ally.   At the bus stop, I stood in the middle of a crowded queue. That day, there were so many people at the bus stop, so I was trying to stay ahead. After a while of standing, sweat ran down my face. I took a tissue and wiped my face. I glanced at the bus arrival notification screen board, it was still five minutes for the bus I was waiting for to come to my bus. I decided to take out the trash first.   When I turned around, what I saw was a sexy chest belonging to a young man who seemed familiar. When I lifted my face, my heart started beating fast!   Chan? Why was he suddenly in front of me?   I greeted him while taking out the trash. He didn't look so comfortable. I was not too brave to talk to him. I couldn’t let Chan feel uncomfortable and run away from me. I still needed him as my ally.   When the bus arrived, I immediately entered with jostling into the bus. I was squeezed in the middle and I almost protested because the man's body in front of me was so tightly attached to me. When I looked up, it turned out it was Chan. He didn't even realize I was right in front of him. So, I stayed quiet. Moreover, this condition was not his fault, the bus was too crowded.   I've almost reached my destination. I needed to ask Chan to move a little for me because I had to exit the bus immediately. Suddenly, the bus driver braked so I almost fell. Luckily Chan immediately caught me, but he did not realize that my feet were stepped on by him. Ouch! It was really hurt!   I tried to exit the bus. It's not good to ask Chan for help. I should take care of myself even though my toes might break after being stepped on by him. But suddenly, he embraced me and helped me walk. I did not refuse his help.   After that, I accidentally saw his pant’s zipper open with a very visible protrusion, coupled with a seepage of water around it. He was mumbling an unreasonable explanation and the situation became very awkward. I suddenly lost interest in Chan.   Huh, all men were jerk! I changed my mind. Maybe the alliance with Chan was not a good idea.   "Chan, it’s okay! We arrive at my home. I can take care of myself from here. Thanks for walking me home," I told Chan in front of my house.   "Can you excuse me to use your restroom? I need to pee. After that, I promise to go home. I’ll order go car," Chan grinned awkwardly.   "Okay, that's fine," I said curtly as I opened the gate. With a limp, I opened my house’s gate.   Chan immediately ran to the toilet. It looked like he's really needed to release something. Poor him. I took an ice cube to compress my feet.   Chan came out of the restroom with a relieved face.   "Thank you. Eh, can I have a drink, please? I’m so thirsty," Chan asked.   "Take it yourself. Self-service yourself," I said.   "Okay. So, the others haven't gone home yet?" Chan asked as he took the glass on the shelf, then filled the water in the dispenser.   "I live alone," I replied to Chan.   "Is this your house?" Chan asked.   "Yes, heritage home."   "Oh, I see. How are your feet? Still hurt?" Chan asked concerned.   "No worry. It will get better at any minute. Do you have ordered your online taxi yet?" I ignored his questions.   "Oh yes!" Chan said as he pressed the online taxi application on the touch screen.   "I already got it. Is it really okay for you to be left alone?" Chan asked.   I nodded. In a few minutes, an online taxi picked up Chan.   I opened Linkedin and looked for professional information about Chan there. However, I could not find any information about Chan. It looked like he didn't have a Linkedin account that showed his profile and track record as an employee.   I sighed.   ***   Chan sighed inside an online taxi. He realized that Yuri kept a distance from him. This was his fault for not being able to control his lower body. Yuri must have misunderstood and thought he was a pervert. Well, there's a point too!   Indeed, since returning to Jakarta, Chan had never had s*x with any woman anymore. He wanted to focus on his investigation as soon as possible. A woman was a distraction that she didn't need right now. But because he didn’t have s*x for a long time, Chan was easily aroused by small things. As a result, when he aroused, Chan had difficulty holding back his lust. Yuri managed to arouse Chan's lust accidentally.   Chan glanced at his cellphone. Andrew had just arrived in Jakarta and was already at The Plaza Residence Sudirman where Chan lived. Chan had booked a suite of 308 square meters as a temporary base for his team in Jakarta. For himself, he booked one unit of 1 bedroom residence area of 80 square meters in the same place. The rent for these rooms was above USD 4500 per month.   The Plaza Residence had the interior of international standards five-stars hotels. The facilities were complete and luxurious. In the same complex, there were so many restaurants serving international standard food. Chan just needed to choose whether he wanted Japanese, Korean, Western, or local cuisine.   Wifi access was super fast and there were fitness facilities that Chan needed to keep his body fit. Not far from there, there was a supermarket to buy some necessities. If he needed clothes and other luxury items, Chan just needed to choose which mall he wanted to visit. All were available in the near area.   The reason for choosing this location was easy. This area was connected by an underground MRT station line. While the Gemilang Gelora office was located directly across the street. The office was just 5 minutes walking distance for Chan. To other people, he could tell that he came to the office and went home using the MRT. No one would have thought that he actually lived in The Plaza Residence.   The Plaza Residence's price was very expensive. The rental price was about several times higher than Chan's monthly salary at the Gemilang Gelora company. Of course, no one would think that Chan would stay and bring his team there. After all, Chan was trying to choose clothes that were generally used by ordinary office employees, although his habit of looking stylish remained visible.   When Chan arrived at The Plaza Residence, Andrew had arrived and packed his belongings. His face looked tired by jetlag due to a long journey from the USA.   "Hey, Chan. How are you? Wow, Man! Your taste is luxurious," Andrew praised.   "Of course! When will the others arrive?" Chan asked.   "Tonight and tomorrow. Give us some time to sleep and tidy things up, Chan. After the jet lag is gone, we set the plan," said Andrew, Chan's business partner, and good friend since at Stanford University.   "Okay, I understand. As long as you sleep and get ready, I will continue the investigation and make preparations for you to continue later," Chan replied with a cold smile.   "How long do you plan to be here?"   "Three months, maybe six months for max. After that we will return to the USA," Chan said.   "Are you sure to execute this plan? We may be dealing with dangerous underworld business people," said Andrew worried.   "Yes, I need to find the truth behind Grandfather's death, Drew. If you are in doubt, you should withdraw from this mission now. I will not be angry. But if you decide to participate, then you need to know the worst risks of this mission," Chan said seriously.   "Relax, Chan. I'm already here for you. So there is no turning back. We will execute the plan as you wish. I want to sleep first," Andrew said.   "Yes, please take a rest. Thanks, bro," Chan replied as he moved away from the residence suite back to his room.
