Angry? annoyed? Of course, Byanca felt that way, it was just that she held it in. Because she didn't want to cause unnecessary problems.

Silence again took over the atmosphere, only the occasional clinking of spoons and forks against plates could be heard filling the room.

There was no discussion or any conversation until the two of them finished their dinner.

"Let me sort it out, you can go back to rest," Byanca said.

"Just leave it there. Later Hendra will take care of it," replied Devan.

"No problem, let me do it, after all, we will be married soon."

"That's up to you," said Devan then turned to the second floor. Leaving Byanca alone.

It was now ten o'clock in the evening, Devan had just opened his tab, checking email in case there was something important and urgent from Clarissa.

After that, he finished some things he should have done this afternoon, it looks like tomorrow he will go to the office.

Glancing at his cellphone briefly, a smile was etched on Devan's face.

"Good evening," was the text message he had just sent to Anna.

Waiting a few minutes for a reply, Devan took a deep breath when he didn't get a reply from the woman.

"Maybe she's asleep," he mumbled and continued his work.

***

With slow steps, Devan entered the walk-in closet to change his clothes after taking a shower in the bathroom on the first floor.

Byanca hasn't woken up yet and still seems asleep on the bed.

Without waiting for the woman to wake up, Devan drove his car to the office.

For the first time, the man drove to the office in his car. Usually, Hendra will take him.

Only this time, Devan asked the middle-aged man to stay home and serve Byanca if she needed help or wanted to go somewhere.

Not because he cared about the woman, Devan did everything because of his mother.

After all, after going to the office, he wanted to visit somewhere.

Arriving at the office, several employees looked surprised when they saw him coming.

Not without reason, because it is still very early in the morning, some of the employees have not even arrived and their superiors have arrived at the office.

Devan wants to get things done as quickly as possible.

Until it was noon, the man had just left the meeting room. Yes, he just chaired a meeting related to the resort development project on island A.

"Send the minutes to my email this afternoon," Devan said to Clarissa before entering his room.

"Okay, sir."

"Ah yes, regarding some files that I have to sign, don't send them one by one. You collect some before sending them to me," said Devan who stopped his steps, turning to Clarissa who was still standing in her position not moving a bit.

"And for an appointment with a client, you represent me, or if not postpone until next week," he added again and disappeared behind the door without waiting for a response from the secretary.

Only a few minutes later, the man came back out wearing only a white shirt.

Seeing that Clarissa, who had just landed on the chair, stood up and approached Devan.

"What..."

"No need, you go back to your place," said Devan immediately without stopping his steps, not even turning to look at his secretary.

"Okay, sir," Clarissa nodded and then returned to her chair.

Leo's apartment.

Leo had just left the apartment, his parents had just contacted him and they wanted to visit.

Only Leo stopped him and asked to meet at Grandma's house instead.

Luckily his parents were able to obey and didn't force him to come.

Now only Naila, Anna, and Dave are three in the apartment.

Sit back and relax on the sofa in the living room while sipping a cold drink and some snacks.

"Mom, where's Daddy?" Dave suddenly asked, the boy stopped playing slime and approached Anna.

"He's on business, honey," Naila replied.

"Why, honey?" the girl asked again.

"No Aunty, I was just wondering," said Dave.

"Come here," Anna grabbed the boy's body and carried him on her lap.

"You haven't told me how you got away from Elena and Carlos, nor how did you meet Devan?" Naila suddenly remembered the question she had always wanted to ask Anna but never found the right time.

Hearing that, Anna shrugged. "It just happened," she replied.

"How about you?" asked Anna back.

"Mom, I'm sleepy," Dave looked up at his mother as he covered his yawning mouth.

"May I sleep here, Mom?" Dave asked again as he patted Anna's thigh.

Seeing her son's behavior, Anna gave a big smile.

"Of course you can, honey. Go to sleep," Anna replied and stroked her son's hair gently.

After that, both Anna and Naila were silent and didn't make any sound until Dave fell asleep.

Until a few minutes later, Anna again asked Naila, still with the same sentence.

Hearing the question of a woman nearby, Naila then told her everything she went through at the amusement park at that time and how she met Leo and ended up in this apartment.

"He said you were his friend, so I just believed it," said Naila ending her story.

Anna nodded with a smile, "I've only met him twice," she said remembering meeting Leo at the party five years ago, and also at the park a few weeks ago.

"Really? But he seems to know a lot about you," replied Naila.

Anna shrugged, "About that, I don't know."

"And do you know, Anna? The hardest thing for me to believe right now is that Leo is Devan's cousin and they are very close."

"Usually coincidences like this only happen if you are meant to be together," Naila added, teasing the woman.

Anna blushed, her face flushed, although she tried to hide it her efforts were in vain.

Naila laughed lightly at Anna's response.

"I'm meeting him now and telling him everything doesn't mean I believe him."

"You know what I've been through with Brian. I need time to rebuild trust with another man, Naila. Moreover, Devan is currently still in an arranged marriage with another woman. I don't want to expect more from him," Anna said at length. What the woman said was somehow slightly different from her heart.

Even though Anna said that, deep down in her heart, there was a feeling that she couldn't control and she didn't realize when that feeling had arisen in her.

Hearing Anna's words, Naila nodded in understanding.

"I won't let anyone hurt you again, Anna," Naila replied.
