"Mr William, are you really going to attend that invitation from the Amber family alone without Miss Joanna?" ask Okta.
"Who said I was alone. I'll go there with the other Elders" replied William casually.
Currently William had just returned after attending a noble event somewhere. Later that evening he will attend the invitation of the Amber family without Joanna.
As per the plan that the Amber Family has arranged, today they are holding a party to welcome the arrival of their first child. On this occasion as well, they would take advantage of the situation to approach the Elder to launch his cunning intentions.
Their first plan is to find a way for the Elders to give Daisy a chance to make amends. Then make Daisy often perform noble duties with William as a redeemer for his mistakes. Waiting for the seeds of William's love for Daisy is only a matter of time.
For some time Daisy was tame again without William and Joanna knowing. Daisy had already pretended to be sorry and was willing to accept a harsher punishment in order for the Main Elder to believe in her change. So, it should all be smooth as long as William comes. Moreover, there is no Joanna at this time, it is certain that their plans will become even smoother.
"Sir, should we call Miss Joanna while we have time. Wouldn't it be more fitting that Miss Joanna be with you? After all, everyone thinks you're a couple. I can be ready to pick him up right now" Okta said. Somehow Okta felt unwilling to let William go alone this time. Is it because Daisy had tried to harm Reagan before that made her worry?
William turned his head, looking at Okta who was speaking wrongly. Everyone thinks they're husband and wife she said? Who said that, they are really husband and wife. They were legally married over a year ago even though they were married only to steal something valuable belonging to the Eastern Nobles.
"T-Master, did I misspoke?" okta asked as she watched William stop walking and look at her.
"Eum, you're so wrong. Joanna and I were a couple" William replied. The man again ignored Okta, then started walking towards the main room in his house.
"Then, should I leave now to pick her up?" ask Okta.
"Don't do that. I asked him when he wanted to go home. But he said he wanted to come back tomorrow. It's okay, let him stay there longer. He must have missed his father and brother" replied William.
The face of William Sayu. Actually he also wanted to bring her back but he wanted to how else. Joanna still wants to stay at her house. In addition Joanna returned to the North City also because of her mistake that struck her at that time. Even though William apologized, he still felt guilty. Next time, in the remaining time he had with the status as Joanna's husband that he had, William promised not to repeat such a thing again.
"But what if the Amber family's looking for trouble again?" ask Okta.
William who unbuttoned the shirt on his arm was instantly silent for a moment. He's been too busy the last few days, until he forgets not to look for information about Daisy. Last time, the Elder said he had been arrested and Okta said Joanna would tell Louise to decide what she wanted to do.
Given Louise's overprotective nature towards Reagan, she should have already sent people to kill Daisy after what Daisy did to Reagan instead. But why did her parents throw a party, does that mean Daisy's still not dead?
"Is Daisy still alive?" ask William.
"Sir, what are you talking about. Of course Miss Daisy is still alive. He is being detained by the Chief Elder" Okta replied.
Okta is getting irritated now. How could his master ask him if Daisy was still alive. Of course he is still alive, he is still very healthy at the moment. What the fuck is that question anyway. Didn't it happen that Daisy died, William would have to come. Does William feel like he's been with a dead body named Daisy?
"I don't know about that either. But Mr. Louise should have known it because Diaz had said that yesterday Miss visited the company with children" Okta replied.
William was just a beard. Joanna did come to the company yesterday, but didn't know that Joanna didn't meet Louise. She has not met Louise, except when Louise escorted Ebra into her room like a kitten yesterday.
"Well, I better find Louise and talk about this tomorrow" William said.
"Good, Master!" okta said.
After that, William returned to running his activities that had been delayed without saying anything. He himself knew Louise was very busy these days. Not only Louise, but she and Arthur are the same. Perhaps the reason Daisy is still alive today is because Louise has not taken action. But even so, Daisy should live counting the days.
William lets Okta do whatever she likes. Meanwhile, he climbed straight up and entered his quiet room without Joanna, Reagan or Oskar. William looked at every corner of the room neatly because it was untouched by the children who usually tear apart the tattoos. Reagan's favorite baby swing was not even swayed in the slightest even though it was blown by the wind.
Seeing it all made William realize something new he felt today. That he's lonely without them. "Why does it feel so different?" ask William.
The man lay on his cold bed, curled up to the other side that Joanna usually ruled. William touched the clean sheet, patting it a few times before settling in, "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry I yelled at you so harshly that day. If I knew you were going all this time, I would have chosen to accept whatever you wanted to do to me that day" William said.
Because the sun was still quite high, William finally decided to sleep. For a few days he was sleep deprived. So, since today there is little free time then let him fill it by resting himself with a nap.
The man had just closed his eyes and unexpectedly had already gone to dreamland in the next minute. Maybe he's reached his limit, maybe he's too sorry, maybe he's too tired to keep getting stuck in the heart line between Marissa and Joanna to make him fall asleep.
The lunch call from Asha he ignored. So did the call from Okta who came later. Okta even got into the room to ascertain what William was doing. But came back out of the room without saying anything after seeing his master sound asleep.
Well, the man was sound asleep. Without knowing that Daisy's not in custody just for today. Unbeknownst to Daisy, she sets up an additional trap without the knowledge of her extended family. Unbeknownst to him a devious plan has already greeted him at the Amber Family residence later tonight.
A trap that would make William make a mistake. A fatal mistake that only Joanna would know as the only eyewitness but choose to be silent as if nothing happened for the future of William and Marissa.
A mistake that William eventually made known though not from Joanna's mouth but from the mouth of the powerful and honorable Louise Matthew. A mistake that Louise Matthew will make to end it all and say things that William never imagined.
A sentence that even made William do things that he had never done so far, namely beating Louise his own brother who he was very fond of so disappointed a William. And what makes William even more angry is, he only knew everything when he just got divorced with Joanna.
Because in the morning William had been deceived by the innocent face of Joanna who asked him to immediately sign their divorce papers. Yes, William will be fooled by that smiling face. Without knowing the woman had hidden all her wounds alone.
