Ethan returned to his apartment, where he was greeted by Amel's presence.The woman appeared to welcome him with great happiness."Ethan! Ethan, you're home?" Amel asked the man.Ethan, who seemed helpless, simply nodded his head, causing a big question mark to appear on the woman's forehead.She felt ambiguous about Ethan's response, which was quite unlike him."Ethan, is everything okay? I seem to sense a troubled aura on your face," Amel said with squinting eyes.Ethan then turned to look intently at the woman, placing his work bag on the sofa and then sitting down next to it."Don't you want to tell me anything?" asked Amel, looking closely at the man.It was visible how Ethan took a deep breath, flashing a smile at the corner of his mouth towards Amel."No, Amel. There's nothing for you to worry about right now. Everything is fine and under control. You don't need to think about anything. Everything is good. I just feel tired today."Amel then nodded, not wanting to add to the ma

Soon after, one of the three women approached the man, draping her arm around his."Darling? Who is this woman? How dare she call herself your lover?"Mahira's eyes widened upon hearing this revelation. "No, Darling. Please, don't misunderstand. She's just a shameless stranger. She's just a cheap woman who betrayed and cheated on me right in front of my eyes," the man replied, looking down on Mahira.With the strength she had, Mahira tried to stand up and return the man's gaze. She shifted her gaze to the woman who was now so intimate with her boyfriend."What are you talking about, Lucas? Why are you calling her Darling? I'm your girlfriend! Not her!" Mahira asserted, causing the man to smirk at the corner of his mouth.He seemed to treat the words coming out of Mahira's mouth like trash."Girlfriend? Since when have we still been in a relationship, huh?! You're the one who betrayed me, and now you're accusing me of cheating behind your back?"The man, whose name was apparently Lucas

Mahira followed Ethan's steps, allowing the man to lead her into his residence."Please, have a seat. I'll prepare a drink for you, Miss Mahira," said Ethan, inviting the woman to sit on one of the sofas in the living room.He asked her to wait there while Ethan apparently requested his sister to keep Mahira company as she looked uncomfortable."But, Bro! You haven't..."Amel tried to protest to the man, but Ethan seemed to give her a look that clearly asked Amel to just comply with his words."Please, understand. Let me get her some water first. After that, I'll tell you everything you want to hear from me. Okay?"Amel sighed, nodding her head to indicate that she was agreeing to everything the man said.The woman sat facing Mahira, giving her an awkward smile."Please drink, Miss Mahira. At least to quench the thirst you must be feeling right now," said Ethan as he offered a tray containing 3 glasses of orange juice.Although Ethan knew it was already nighttime, he felt that in this

"See you later! Take care on your way!"Mahira raised one of her hands, waving it a few times towards the man who had just dropped her off at home.A sweet smile continued to appear at the corner of her lips as she shook her head several times.She couldn't contain what she was feeling at that moment.Remembering how Ethan had done so much for her made Mahira feel very special at that time."Boo!"Suddenly from behind, someone startled Mahira, who was busy smiling to herself at the side of the road.Mahira, who felt no need to question who did such a thing to her, could only roll her eyes lazily, looking at the woman who was now smiling with her innocent face."Leona! Can't you not surprise me like this?" Mahira asked, feeling lazy to look at that woman.There was always something about her actions that kept annoying Mahira.You could see how that neat and white set of teeth appeared perfectly adorning the woman's grinning face."It's a habit! What if my heart jumps out and I die on t

Leona looked at her uncle with a smile that she couldn't help but emerge at the corner of her lips.Her arms were now outstretched, hugging the body of the older man who was with her at the entrance to Ethan's room."Please, Mr. Leo, you can sit here. I'm sorry for the incident this morning. It was actually a rather poor start to the day," Ethan said, feeling uncomfortable with the man due to the chaos caused by Milena.Leo, who also felt that this was not Ethan's fault but rather the woman's overly aggressive behavior towards Ethan, shook his head, indicating that he completely disagreed with the apology Ethan had made."It's alright, Mr. Ethan. After all, this is not your fault. This happened because that woman deliberately caused a commotion by coming here. Don't worry about it," Leo said, indicating that he did not have a problem with it at all.Meanwhile, Leona, the woman, seemed to be still clinging to the older man's arm.She gave the uncle a very sweet smile."Hm.. in that cas
