"Well, Mr. Ethan? Are you willing to spare some time to accompany Leona? To be honest, I don't know who else to ask for help because you're the only one I trust, Mr. Ethan," said Leo, looking intently at the man who now appeared lost in thought due to his words.Ethan let out a long sigh. He looked at the man and then alternately at Leona, who seemed so hopeful that Ethan would agree to her uncle's request."Me?" Ethan asked, pausing his sentence. He then looked back at Leo, his sharp gaze straight ahead making Leo understand that deep down, the man felt reluctant about what Leo had just said.Honestly, Leo also felt uneasy because he felt like he was forcing the man without considering whether Ethan agreed to his request or not. In any case, Leo was currently in a dilemma. He couldn't possibly ignore his niece's request, considering how much she had done for him."I sincerely apologize to you, Mr. Ethan. But I don't know who else to ask for help. Leona really wants to visit that exhi

Martin shook his head, indicating that he disagreed with Citra's statement."No, Citra. I'm not going anywhere. Please, forgive me. I didn't mean it at all. I beg you, listen to my explanation first. You can't just make decisions rashly like that. Listen to me first," said Martin, trying to get the woman's attention.Citra shook her head, indicating how she didn't want to hear anything more from Martin.She felt she had heard enough from that man."I'm sorry, Mr. Martin. I hope you can understand what I'm saying. Please, don't be selfish. I hope you can respect the decision I'm making right now," Citra replied firmly.It was visible how the man then turned his gaze towards Mrs. Merry, clearly asking for the woman's support."I'm sorry, Martin dear. Aunty hopes you'll understand the decision Citra is making right now. There's still tomorrow, Citra also needs time for all this. You can come back here tomorrow and talk to Citra again. How about that? Aunty hopes you'll listen to what Aun

A wide smile appeared perfectly at the corner of Leona's lips; the woman looked very happy. Especially now that they had arrived at the exhibition showcasing many artworks made by villagers.However, as the pamphlets had been widely distributed to the public, the exhibition attracted many people, evident from how Ethan and Leona were struggling to find parking."Oh come on! Can't we go any faster? I can't wait to see the exhibition there. Can't you park more quickly?" asked Leona, who seemed full of enthusiasm.She looked at the people who were already visiting many of the stalls where people were selling things there; she really couldn't wait to visit all the stalls there."Be patient, Miss Leona. There are so many people coming to this exhibition, and it seems that because of the long time you used earlier, we're now having trouble getting a parking spot," Ethan said to the woman.It was visible how Leona became flustered because indeed, she had taken too long getting ready. After s

"Sorry."Ethan said that one word, which held so many implicit meanings.Only certain people, especially Citra, would understand all the meanings contained in that short word."Why are you here? Aren't you with your girlfriend?" Citra asked, frowning in annoyance.She then folded her arms across her chest, rolling her eyes lazily."Girlfriend? You mean Leona? The woman who met you earlier at the booth...""Enough, stop. Don't talk anymore if you just want to show off about your relationship with that woman. Without you explaining in more detail, I already know that you've been in a relationship with her."Citra folded her arms across her chest, averting her gaze elsewhere.She didn't want to look at Ethan's eyes at all.Just as Ethan took a seat next to her, Citra immediately shifted her position almost to the very edge."Stay where you are or I'll leave," Citra said, making Ethan instantly turn into a statue.He didn't want to take any further risks.A long sigh escaped Ethan's mouth

Ethan and Mr. Leo's attention was visibly drawn to the doctor who came out with his nurse."You go ahead and take care of it first," said the doctor, giving orders to the nurse behind him, before finally turning his focus to the two anxious-looking men.A sweet smile appeared perfectly at the corner of Robi's lips. After all, he had to be able to calm and ease the tense atmosphere that had built up at that time."How is my niece's condition, doc? Is she okay? Nothing serious happened to her, right? How is she doing?"The barrage of questions expressing his concern came from the man's mouth. A warm smile appeared to calm the worries of the two men."Calm down, sir. We will certainly do our best to treat the patient. You don't need to feel overly worried because the bleeding that occurred could be quickly stopped and handled thanks to the patient being brought in faster. If it had been too late to bring her here, I'm not sure if we could have saved the patient's life or not," said Docto
