Chapter 3

Hull called Ivan to serve the group that had just arrived. The man didn't reject him at all. He was happy to do this.

Ivan focused on placing orders on the table without looking at who came there.

"Ivan, do you work here?" Silvia asked directly.

Silvia's subordinates immediately looked at Ivan, they were all amazed that their superiors knew the tavern waiter.

Ivan was a little surprised to see Silvia, the man just nodded slowly with a smile, not daring to answer, afraid that the people with Silvia would be disturbed.

After placing all the orders on the table, Ivan immediately left, without saying a word, making Silvia frown slightly.

Viona whispered to Silvia, "Do you know him?"

Silvia just smiled faintly. "Let's eat," he said, ignoring Viona's question.

Silvia and her entourage enjoyed the meal, they all ignored the boss who seemed to know the waiter at the shop.

After a while they finished eating together. Everyone returned to their respective lodgings.

"Vi, I'll go later, you guys go back to the inn first, I'll follow later," he said softly.

Viona and Silvia's subordinates understood, they returned to the inn first. Except for one person who seemed suspicious of Silvia's movements.

The hours kept changing, until finally it was time for the shop to close. Ivan left the shop at the same time as the other waiters.

"Ivan!" shouted Silvia who was waiting in front of the shop.

Ivan and his colleagues turned around, seeing Silvia calling Ivan, one of his colleagues teasing. "Cie... you already secretly have a girl."

"What the hell, go home!" Ivan scolded while pushing his colleague.

"Yes, yes... take me to the hotel," replied Ivan's colleague, still teasing and immediately ran.

Ivan sighed seeing his partner teasing like that.

Silvia walked over to Ivan, the woman smiled faintly while holding the small bag she was carrying in both hands.

Ivan looked nervous when Silvia approached, he asked, "It's so late, aren't you coming home?"

"Deliberately waiting for you to finish work, our accommodation is close by," answered Silvia with a smile.

Ivan nodded slowly. He seemed confused about what to do in front of Silvia. Even though he had many questions he wanted to ask, he couldn't say them all.

"You, still live in the old house?" Silvia asked to confirm.

"Yeah, that's it... that's all our house is," he answered softly.

"Can I have your number?" Silvia asked while holding out her cell phone.

Ivan looked at Silvia, the woman seemed to be smiling charmingly in front of him, making Ivan remember the past, how Silvia always smiled at him when he met. The man took Silvia's cell phone and entered the number, then returned the woman's cell phone.

"Thank you, I'll call you later," Silvia said softly with a smile, "it's late, I'll go first."

Ivan just nodded slowly. Silvia smiled, leaving Ivan to go to his car. The woman waved her hand, as did Ivan who waved back at Silvia.

Even though he is aware that their castes are different, in reality Ivan also has the hope of being with the person he loves.

Without Ivan realizing that someone was taking a photo of the two of them from a distance, the man seemed to grin and send the photo to someone.

After Silvia's car left, Ivan also rushed home feeling very happy.

When he got home, Ivan didn't see his mother, he went to look at his room and Mira was already asleep, the man smiled, closed the door again and went to his room.

Ivan lay down on the bed, smiling to himself looking at the ceiling.

Suddenly Ivan's cell phone rang, the man immediately took his old cell phone, looked at the screen and saw a new number calling him.

Ivan answered the call. "Hello, who are you?" he asked casually, even though he was sure it was Silvia.

Ivan's guess was true, Silvia answered on the other end of the phone. "Pretending to ask, even though you know it's me, right?"

"Hehehe... you're still like before, able to guess what's in my mind," answered Ivan while laughing.

"You bastard, it's a shame that tomorrow I have to go back to the head office, can we meet again sometime?" Silvia asked again.

"Yes, it's better that way, it's not nice to chat on the phone, what's more, it's late at night, you get some rest, Veronica," said Ivan softly.

"You still remember what I called you, okay, you can rest too, bye," answered Silvia and turned off her cell phone.

Ivan smiled faintly, his feelings were floating, he couldn't wait to meet Silvia again and chat with her about many things.

In Silvia's accommodation room, the woman was also seen smiling while hugging her cell phone. Her busy work meant that the woman didn't have time to meet Ivan again. However, now he has Ivan's number, which means he can continue to communicate with his first love.

the next day. Ivan looked very excited to go to work as usual. The man said goodbye to his mother and left the house.

Just leaving the house, Ivan was surprised by the presence of several people dressed like thugs in front of the house.

"Are you Ivan?" asked one of the thug-like people.

"Yes, that's right, there is a...."

Bugs! Bugs! Bugs!

Argh!

Before Ivan had finished speaking, Ivan was immediately hit like a punching bag, the man could only curl up on the ground while trying to cover his head with both hands.

"Forgive me..." said Ivan pleadingly.

When Mira heard a strange sound in front of the house, she immediately came out, how shocked the old woman was to see her child being beaten by people.

"Ivan!" Mira exclaimed and immediately ran to her child, "Stop, I beg you to stop!"

Mira tried to stop the people, but she was pushed until she fell to the ground.

Ivan continued to be beaten until the man really couldn't do anything and was then released.

"Stay away from Miss SilviaIf you dare approach him again, we will make sure that not only you are injured, but we will also kill your mother!" shouted one of the thugs.

Ivan just looked at the thug helplessly, the man didn't know what was really happening.

The thugs left Ivan and his mother. Mira rushed to support her child. "Ivan, are you okay, kid?" he asked while shedding tears.

One of the thugs approached Ivan again. He squatted in front of the mother and child. "Leave the city of Aranca, Mr. Adama probably won't just stay silent, go to this place, there are affordable rentals there," said the man, patting Ivan on the shoulder and handing him a piece of address paper.

Mira looked at the man and asked, "Meinz, why did you do this to uswhat did we do wrong?"

The man called Meinz stopped walking and answered, "Mira, you better do what I say, this is all for your good, if I didn't know you, maybe they would kill you, just consider this my gratitude"Because you wanted to take me in, listen carefully to what I say!"

Meinz just left Mira and Ivan, even though he wanted to help, he couldn't. Because now he works for Silvia's father.

Mira could only cry seeing the injured child in her lap. He took Ivan inside then treated his wounds.
