'Have travelled far and nearOverseas and tall mountainsIsle, crook and straightwayIn search of a wealth fountainAnd when old age steals my strength awayAnd the wealth I seek seemed far awayLike Ceaser longing for RomeI wore my scandal and picked my crotchGrief for those times I never keep in touchAs I turned back toward my dear home. Johji Inn became deafening with applause, as the musician bowed and stepped off the podium. A moment later, the silence that had descended after the earth-gripping song upgraded into an uproar as a fight suddenly boomed out in the section meant for liquor drinkers. "Did you dare insult my father and called him a goat?" "Yes. I called him a goat but not as an insult." "I beg your pardon. Calling a man a goat is an insult, and when the man happens to be my father, then I have no choice but to fight for his honour." "Be still. A goat means; great of all time and not an animal." "In that case, avoid unnecessary abbreviations when talking to me.

As expected, lady Agatha couldn't sleep through the night as she tossed from one end of the mattress to the other side, in expectation of the call from the man who claimed he is from the foreigners. After Amara's confession, the thoughtful-looking woman had realized how vulnerable she is, as long as Andrea is alive. Thanks to the anonymous caller, how will she have realized her life is at stake? Informing El Ramon is futile, as lady Agatha was fully aware that he will always support Andrea, no matter the volume of the evidence against her. Her only hope lies in seeking help from the outsider, though she wasn't sure how he could help her in this circumstance. But then, if the caller had been so knowledgeable to the extent he knew of the plan to poison her, he shouldn't be belittled. Having no other choice, she was ready to seek the help of the foreigners as long as it will get her back the love she seek so much. Though lady Agatha couldn't blink through the night, it was a great

After her conversation over the phone with Andrea, Jade can be seen smiling in front of a life-size mirror. "The image am seeing is prettier than me," she muttered, standing up from the stool in front of the mirror and stretching her body. A moment later, the frail-looking lady was dressed in a white backless top and mini-skirt, and a black handbag was hung over her shoulder as she stepped out of a well-furnished room, into a long corridor that is poorly lit. Men and ladies bowed at her as she passed through the corridor and emerged outside. Far off, various exquisite cars were crammed in the car park, and Jade stepped towards a blue-painted sports car, opened the car door and hopped into the driver's seat. Seconds later, the car engine became alive, and the thoughtful-looking lady drove out immediately after. Hours later, she passed through a toll gate that separates an island from the other one, into the busy city and got lost among the tall buildings and mansions that covered t

To Andrea, Jade is an indispensable disaster. One that she had no choice but to clear the mess she just made. "Leave her here and take off," Andrea instructed the mafias who just brought Jade into the palace. "She is a dangerous lady, your majesty." "Don't worry about me. She looked frail and I doubt she is guilty as charged." "If you insist." "Where is the key to the handcuffs?" "Here with me. Have it, your majesty." "Thank you. Please let this remain a secret between the mafias and the ladies of attendance. We can't bear having the rumour of a crazy lady circulating on this island. It will affect our sales in Johji Inn." "I will inform my people never to say this out beyond the wall of Johji Inn." "Thank you. Tell your supervisor to come and meet me tomorrow morning. I have things to discuss with him." "It will be done. Your majesty." Andrea sighed when the mafias were out turned towards the silent lady and unlocked the handcuffs on her wrists. "You won't ask me why I kil

The lone traveller walked through the night and arrived at the front of the palace's big black gate. Since the mafias were alert at the other side of the gate, it was promptly opened, after the lady had identified himself. "Is her majesty available to attend to me?" "Yes. She is expecting you. Can you hear the sound of her guitar and her melodious voice?" "Aye. Did she always bless you with her gift every night?" "Not always. You are lucky tonight." "Am always lucky. Ain't I?" Both pairs walked through the long corridor and passed various checkpoints and numerous gates that are guarded by red eyes mafias. After being checked for any concealed weapons on the seventh time at the last gate, they were admitted into Andrea's compartment of the palace, and the mafia signalled to the lady to go ahead. As the lady walked closer, the power of Andrea's melodious voice gripped her consciousness, and she had to admit the gods were benevolent by giving humans the gift of music. Afraid to
