"Bro! Ethan!" Amel exclaimed, feeling annoyed because she was being continuously ignored by that man.The woman appeared to be pouting, indicating how upset she was over what Ethan was doing.Ethan seemed not to hear her at all. Even though Amel had clearly tried to talk to him at that time.However, not once did the man want to listen to her. She couldn't understand what was happening with Ethan."Bro! Ethan, are you hearing what I'm saying?" asked Amel, making the man take a deep breath.Amel was seen narrowing her eyes, staring intently at the man.Ethan turned for a moment, looking at his sister with a tired expression."I'm exhausted, Amel. I hope you won't talk about things like this right now. I hope you understand what I mean at this moment," said Ethan, making Amel promptly shut her mouth.Indeed, Amel shouldn't have asked the man any further because she should just let everything become a matter between Ethan and Citra alone.Amel fell completely silent, turning her gaze tow

"Is there nothing left behind?" asked Leo while looking intently at his niece.The woman with a sweet smile at the corner of her lips felt so happy because this afternoon she had been allowed to go home by the doctor who had been treating her while she was in the hospital."Ready to return home, hm?" asked the Uncle, which made Leona nod her head without hesitation.Of course, she was even impatient to go to the house that was actually much more calming compared to the hospital that was only filled with the smell of medicines.A rather long sigh came out of the man's mouth; he felt so happy when he knew his niece also felt much happier now."Thank you, Mr. Ethan. All this time, you have taken care of me very well. I don't know how else I can repay all your kindness. I hope you didn't do all this reluctantly," said Leona, who then looked intently at Ethan.The man then shook his head; of course, he would deny the truth of what Leona said, because actually, he did all this only because

Professor Malik appeared to be trying to calm the anger of the woman with him.Amel's face was filled with a sour expression, indicating how the woman did not accept what the man in front of her had done.She stared at the man sharply, tears slowly starting to fall from the corners of her eyes.With difficulty, the woman tried to swallow her saliva, but it was clear that the man would not change his decision at all.Professor Malik seemed not to care about the expression Amel was clearly showing at that moment."I understand how you feel about not agreeing to come here, Amel. However, I want you to meet Richard first. He asked me to bring you with him. I don't have any other choice now. He threatened me," said Professor Malik, who would clearly obey what Richard had asked.That man was his brother. No matter how bad a sibling might be, of course, no one would fulfill that sibling's wishes except their own blood relative."So? Do you have to obey him and trap me here? You've really los

Ethan quickly parked his car in the driveway of Leona's house.He hurried, closing the car door and rushing into the house as fast as possible.Fortunately, the house wasn't locked, allowing Ethan to immediately climb the stairs, certain that Leona was on the upper floor."Miss Leona! Where are you?"Ethan called out, trying to locate the woman.Faintly, Ethan could hear a familiar whimpering sound. He immediately entered, approaching the source of the sound.His eyes widened in shock when he found a woman sitting weakly, blood flowing profusely.There were even parts of her arms that seemed to indicate dried wounds."Oh my God, Miss Leona?! What happened to you?! Why are your hands... bleeding so much? You..."Ethan cut off his words, not wanting to cause the woman more pain."Let me help you stand up, Miss," Ethan said, changing the subject.He quickly helped the woman to her feet, allowing himself to support her as he brought her back to sit on her bed.A sweet smile now appeared p

Amel, now stuck in traffic with Professor Malik, sighed repeatedly.She was unsure what to tell Ethan after this. Unfortunately, Amel had forgotten to let her brother know where she was.Playing with Professor Malik in the fruit orchard had made Amel forget to inform Ethan of her whereabouts until her phone had already died."Oh no... Ethan must be worried about where I am now," Amel thought to herself.She was really concerned about that man. Amel was afraid her brother might start thinking the worst.Amel was at a loss for what to say now. Everything seemed to have vanished from her mind.Ethan let out a long sigh. He had no idea what to say at that moment."Ugh... what should I do now? Why did the road have to get jammed? It's not usually like this," Amel monologued to herself.Amel could be seen occasionally glancing out her car window, trying to figure out why the road had suddenly become so congested."Is everything okay, Amel? It looks like there was an accident up ahead. Peopl
