Keano's shout stunned Alexa. Reflexively, he removed his hand from Eleanor's arm. Ivyna took advantage of this opportunity to take Eleanor away from Alexa. He hugged Eleanor as he stroked the trembling little girl's back.
"Are you okay, El? Don't be afraid that Daddy's here" Keano said to Eleanor.
Eleanor nodded then moved into Keano's arms.
"Darling, why did you suddenly come home?" ask Ivyna astonishment.
"There's my file left behind. It's a good thing I'm going home, otherwise Eleanor is the victim."
"I'm sorry. This all happened because of my mistake" said Ivyna bowed.
"There's no need to regret what happened, honey. Think of it as learning for us in the future."
Alexa was getting inflamed seeing Keano and Ivyna's intimacy. He could not believe that the man who was willing to sacrifice anything for him, had now turned to another woman. And even more painful, his existence was not ignored at all by Keano and Eleanor. Instead they look comfortable and happy with Ivyna Adhiyaksa.
"Keano, why don't you let me meet my own son?" ask Alexa to step forward. Jealousy makes him unable to think clearly.
"Ivy, take Eleanor upstairs. Don't let him hear this fight" Keano said.
Ivyna nodded and took Eleanor up the stairs. Alexa tries to prevent Ivyna's departure, but Keano quickly gets in the way.
"What the fuck, Kean? I want to see Eleanorn anyway I came here because your new wife asked for it," exclaimed Alexa trying to shake Keano's hand.
"You don't deserve to call Eleanor your daughter! Did you forget that you threw Eleanor away yourself and did not acknowledge her as a child. Since then, you have no rights over Eleanor."
"Kean, I'm sorry. I was depressed at the time so acted out of my consciousness. I went to a psychiatrist for a few months to heal my disturbed mentality" Alexa said.
"Don't use the reason for depression to justify your sin, Alexa! Obviously you had an affair with that jerk, then left Eleanor. Now for me and Eleanor, you are meaningless. You are just part of our bitter past. Now get out of my house!" expel Keano.
Alexa's tears became unstoppable. She touched Keano's shoulder as she looked at her ex-husband with sadness. This handsome face used to look at him lovingly, but now he looks so cold and foreign. Keano Atmaja who was then and now is much different, like the earth with the sky.
"Give me a second chance, Kean. I regret all my mistakes. I believe that in your deepest heart, you still love me. Eleanor also needs the affection of her biological mother. Please divorce Ivyna Adhiyaksa so we can reunite. The three of us will be a whole family."
"Stop that delusion, Alexa! Your trail is completely gone from my heart. And you need to know, the woman I love now and forever is Ivyna. If you still have some pride, leave quickly! No one wants your presence here" Keano said.
Like being struck by lightning, Alexa was glued to her place. He was completely humiliated by Keano's words. Even her ex-husband had the heart to expel her and openly choose his new wife.
Nanda who heard the quarrel was desperate to enter the middle room. He was surprised to see Alexa who was messed up and covered in tears.
"Lex, what's wrong with you?" her question was to embrace Alexa with concern.
Keano turned to look at Nanda with a flat expression.
"Bring Alexa away and remind her not to set foot in my house again. He's not welcome in this house."
"But Mr. Keano, Alexa came at your wife's invitation" said Nanda.
"I don't care. Get out now and never come back!"
Looking at Keano's reddened eyes, Nanda did not dare to refute. He soon takes a thousand steps to bring Alexa out of Keano's mansion.
"Patience, Lex, let's go home. Your eyes shouldn't be swollen because the day after tomorrow there's a shooting schedule."
Alexa is speechless. It was too late because she had been replaced by Ivyna Adhiyaksa. All that was left for him now was a wound mixed with regret.
Ivyna rushed into the room. He pretended to be asleep when his heart beat was racing. Hearing Keano call her a beloved woman, makes Ivyna blossom. He becomes convinced that Keano is the life partner destined for him. Although it began with coercion, eventually their hearts were tightly adrift with each other.
"Darling, I know you haven't slept yet" Keano said, taking off his suit, shirt and shoes.
Keano smiled as Ivyna was still hiding under the covers. His wife's behavior is hard to guess. Sometimes Ivyna seems mature, independent, and stubborn, but sometimes she becomes soft, spoiled and very shy. But it is precisely this unique trait that makes it even more adorable in Keano's eyes.
Slowly, Keano lay down next to Ivyna. He lifted the wife's blanket and turned his body so they could face each other.
"Why embarrassed? You hear what I told Alexa? Can I repeat it in front of you?"
"Sstttt, no need. I've heard clearly just now," prevent Ivyna with a blushing face.
"Then how do you respond?"
"Don't be too rude to women, honey. Alexa does make a lot of mistakes, but she's still the mother of your child. Try to forgive his mistakes. It is not good to hold hatred and grudges in the heart. I tried my best to forgive Randy."
"So you told me to go back to Alexa?"
Ivyna immediately glared at Keano until the man laughed amusedly.
"I'm asking you to forgive Alexa, not refer to her" Ivyna said.
"I'm just kidding, honey. Where could I possibly want to lose you. I love you so much because you are a kind, loving, sincere woman. Thanks to your presence, my life and that of Eleanor became colored again. Thank you, dear," said Keano, tasting Ivyna's lips.
"You're so smart to seduce, Mr. Keano," Ivyna replied blushingly.
"Now it's your turn to show me your love, Madame Atmaja."
"How is it?" Ivyna asked pretending not to understand.
"I'll teach you to the point of mastery" said Keano smiling meaningfully.

Alarick's been getting ready since six in the morning. He can't wait to get back to Jakarta and see his family. While waiting for Mr. Sam's arrival, Alarick double-checked his wardrobe to make sure no items were left behind.
Outside, Aunt Lina was heading to Alarick's room to say goodbye. He was shocked when he saw a luxury car stop in front of his boarding house. He thought it was the driver who was going to pick up Alarick. But it turns out that the figure who came out of the car was a super handsome man.
The man was tall and handsome like Alarick, but looked more mature. With thick eyebrows, a sharp nose, and a firm jaw, this man at first glance resembled a movie player who became his idol. Aunt Lina almost fainted when the perfect creation of God walked towards her.
"Good morning, Mom. I want to pick up my sister, Alarick. Can I come in?" ask the man.
"I.iya, sir, please. Ma...ri come with me," replied Aunt Lina suddenly stammered.
He did not expect this man was his brother Alarick. He should have the same level of good looks as his sister.
"Oh, if I could marry more than one, I would definitely marry these two brothers,"
inner Aunt Lina smiled to herself.
