Emily waited until Jeremy and Clarissa were gone, so she got out of the car.
"Young Miss, here, let auntie help" said Aunt Liana as she reached out her hand to help Emily get off.
'Thank you, Auntie.' said Emily in sign language.
'Is Aunt okay?' he asked again, because since the night of the attack, he had not seen Aunt Liana again.
"Auntie's fine, Miss. Don't worry." replied Aunt Liana.
"Pak Doni and Miss Mila are fine too" he continued when he saw Emily about to ask again, making Emily smile.
"Welcome back, Young Miss." said Pak Wawan, the butler at the Mansion, while slightly bowing his body.
Emily smiled and nodded in response. While Aunt Liana still showed her worried face.
"Oh, God.. Thank goodness Miss is okay. Aunt was really worried when we were attacked by robbers that night" he said.
Emily rubbed Aunt Liana's shoulder, trying to calm the middle-aged woman down. To be honest, he felt guilty for the deaths of those people at the incident.
Jeremy is totally outrageous. In order to get rid of him, the man was willing to kill his own people.
"Miss, why did miss shut up when she saw Young Master with another girl? Is Miss going to let them just like that?" Aunt Liana, who had been disgusted by Jeremy and Clarissa's interaction, couldn't help but ask.
Emily smiled sadly and shook her head slowly. He moved his hand to finish his words.
'What should I do, then? Aunty can see for herself no, they both love each other..'
Aunt Liana was stunned, she did not expect that her Young Miss would think that way.
"But, Miss is Mr. Jeremy's legal wife. That girl shouldn't be in your relationship. She is a seductress trying to usurp your position."Aunti Liana protested unhappily.
'From the beginning, Jeremy never loved me. Now, he had found the person he loved. Isn't my current position a bully in the relationship between two people who love each other?' ask Emily.
Emily's reply left Aunt Liana amazed. How could her Young Miss think like that?
"But, Miss is still his wife." he insisted.
'And I am still not the girl he loved and wanted.' Emily gestured while patting the middle-aged woman on the shoulder.
Emily then hinted to Aunt Liana not to think too much about it. Then he went to his room. Emily felt lucky, because the servants at the Mansion understood about her condition and wanted to learn sign language, so she had no trouble interacting with them.
"Why is Young Miss so tough to deal with this? He shouldn't have let the seductive woman just like that. I really don't like the attitude of the actor." whispered Aunt Liana to Pak Wawan.
"You better not interfere too much in the matter of the household of the Master and Miss. We never know what they think. As servants, we can only carry out our duties well." advice Pak Wawan.
"It's hard, if you talk about men. You must be defending sir, right? Aren't you thinking about Young Miss's feelings? His heart must have been hurt. Although she was mute, but she was very kind and had the qualities of a Young Miss. Do you think that the spoiled girl would be able to do the same if she were to become Master's partner?" cecar Aunt Liana.
Aunt Liana simply clucked in annoyance and left Pak Wawan alone.

Emily rubbed her eyes while looking around. Holy jeez!! How long has he been asleep? They were late in the afternoon, and now it was dark. Slowly, he reached out his hand touching the sleeping lamp on the nightstand beside his bed, and saw the alarm clock on it, eight past fifty minutes. It means he missed dinner.
Emily is grateful, at least she does not need to feel awkward at a table with her husband's affair. He was sure, Jeremy did not want him there, proof he was not woken up for dinner.
Slowly Emily went down and turned on the lights, and she went out into the kitchen. His stomach was rumbling to be filled. He wanted to see what he could eat to end his hunger.
"Young Miss." said a waiter who was surprised to see Emily in the kitchen.
Emily put her index finger in front of her lips, asking her to be quiet. Then he opened the refrigerator, took some fruit and biscuits.
"Young Miss, let me do it. Miss didn't have to bother.." The waiter hadn't had time to finish his words, Emily waved her hand.
He was already very hungry, and it would take some time if he had to ask the waiter to prepare. After feeling enough of what she took, Emily returned to her room, intending to eat there.
Arriving at her room, Emily opened her balcony window, and sat down to eat her food slowly while looking at the starry sky.
As a result of his tongue being cut off, not only makes it difficult to speak, but also makes it difficult to chew his food.
Meanwhile, Jeremy and Clarissa who had finished dinner from earlier, were currently sitting relaxing in the living room while watching television. With Clarissa holding Jeremy and leaning against his chest.
"I'm so grateful that you're there for me. I'm not sure what my fate would be if there wasn't you. I probably won't survive." said Clarissa softly.
Jeremy rubbed Clarissa's head.
"Don't say the no-no. Of course I'll always be there for you." Jeremy said.
Of course he should always be there for Clarissa. Because that girl is the key to magnifying her power later on. Although both of the girl's parents were gone, the large family and loyal supporters of the Eden family were numerous. In order to get supporters from the Eden family, Jeremy has to get Clarissa's heart first.
Lucky for him because from the beginning, Clarissa had already fallen for him. Even though the girl knew that he was a married man, Clarissa did not give up.
Their calmness was interrupted by the sound of broken urns being accidentally nudged by Aunt Liana.
The woman was about to go out to check if all the windows were locked properly, who would have thought that she saw the scene that made her very angry.
"What's up, Aunt Liana?" ask Jeremy. He could not be disrespectful to Aunt Liana, because the servant was sent by his father, Antonio Charlos, specifically to take care of Emily.
Aunt Liana could not hold herself back anymore.
"Master, when you brought this girl here, I didn't say anything. When you told me to treat him well, I did. But, why would Master be able to do this to Young Miss??" tanyanya sad.
