"What are you doing at Psyche's house these nights?"

Adam's sharp gaze turned to the two women in turn.

Sophia commented on her fake smile and glanced at her son undaunted. "Something was troubling my mother, so I went to visit Psyche."

"What bothered you until these nights when you visited Psyche?"

There was silence for quite a long time. The tense atmosphere cannot be ignored, but one must quickly dilute the atmosphere.

Psyche cleared her throat slowly, she had to send these two Louvanders back to her house quickly so that she could return to bed quietly. "Mother's only concern for her child." He said in a flat tone, "He said it was strange when Adam brought a woman before his mother and introduced her as a lover."

Psyche boldly looked into Adam's eyes which were clearly so full of suspicion. Yep. The man never trusted anyone, like him.

"She just wants to know what I'm doing. Am I worthy of her perfect son." Psyche added, by force.

Sophia quickly turned her head towards Psyche. Can't believe that Psyche would have said that as a diversion. But he also had no other option to reason.

"Is that so, Mother?"

Sophia grabbed her son's arm and smiled gently. "Mom's only worried about you, you know since your father died I've always been worried about things that have to do with our family."

Adam sighed, "Next time don't do this again. I know what I'm doing, so don't overdo it." He had a glance at Psyche who was just silent while turning his gaze in the other direction. "It looks like tomorrow, I'm gonna have to go back for a routine checkup with the psychiatrist."

Sophia nodded quickly, "Will mother neglect."

Adam turned around, "Then apologize to Psyche for interrupting her time off."

Sophia stunned. At first glance he could see the smile of Psyche after the departure of his son.

The woman faintly muttered, "This is how it feels when someone you love sides with someone else."

It was not difficult for Adam to book two summer travel tickets along with a private luxury inn located right on the beach.

With large windows that lead directly to the view of the sea and the twilight sky, Psyche can see both of them from the bed. Exactly when he awoke and realized that he was still wearing the same clothes towards Hawaii.

"Beautiful..." Psyche muttered softly as she stepped closer to the windows. In addition to the incredible scenery, you will also find a swimming pool that makes you want to soak all day there.

Adam knew how to pamper women with his money, but he never understood how to please women with his attitude.

Adam was already a little tame, but he still had fangs. Whenever he could hurt her, any loopholes and faults the man would never remain silent. That man will not forgive him.

And this summer's holiday plan is one of the things Psyche can't predict. For he knew that Adam would use his spare time for everything related to his work. Not to sunbathe and damage his white skin or enjoy seafood while watching the sunset.

"You awake?"

Psyche doesn't have to look around to see who's coming in and standing at the door. He just nodded slowly, his eyes could see the sun gradually began to sink in the western horizon.

How long has it been, huh? I don't think Psyche remembers the last time she saw a scene like this. While Adam who is always in his possession gives him the opportunity to see all the beauty that he never saw again.

"Evening was ready" Adam knew Psyche was not listening because she could see how the woman seemed to be fixated on something from behind the window. So he led his way to approach the woman, stood beside her and looked at the same thing.

"Do you like this place?"

Psyche blinked slowly, the man's body scent explained everything. Including his being so close that he could feel their sides intersecting.

"I just love to see the sunset."

Secretly Adam sighed, while putting both his hands into his pants pocket he turned around. "I'll wait at the dinner table."

Hearing Adam's footsteps made Psyche turn her face for the first time. Staring at the wide back that began to drift away like the sun was beginning to sink.

At that moment he realized that the tall body of the man was wrapped in a black apron. Psyche did not want to guess, but maybe Adam had done something unusual done by him.

The most noticeable difference between Miranda and Psyche is probably the hair color of both. But in Sophia's eyes, the way the two women responded was the most contrasting.

Miranda is a figure who will blend and do not hesitate to spend the tea that Sophia poured into her cup, while Psyche seemed to be a reflection when she was young. Although he knew that his heartache might have turned him into that.

"So Adam went on vacation without Auntie and Ariel?"

Sophia has always liked the friendly and mature looking Miranda regardless of the status that always makes her look one-eyed.

"She said she wanted to go on vacation with her boyfriend." Sophia found the two emerald colors dimming. And he can immediately find out that Miranda apparently considers Adam more than just a coworker. Of course, how could he not understand all the attention of the woman all this time?

Miranda smiled wryly. He again sipped the tea that stayed half in a cup. "Tumben once, like not Adam, right?"

Is correct. Like not his son. Like it wasn't Adam who was workaholic and scorned such useless things.

"By the way, you know Psyche?"

Miranda nodded slowly, "Not very familiar, anyway. He's just a new kid in the company, not even a year old. I know because he's Adam's man in the finance division." Afterwards smiling awkwardly. So even Sophia knew about Psyche.

What a fact that adds to the list of his heartache.

"Auntie has met him in person?" Miranda hesitated to ask, but curiosity could not be ignored. The extent to which the mother of the man she loved knew about Psyche.

"Yes," Sophia nodded briefly. His hands seemed to be clinging to each other on top of his thighs. "She's a simple person."

Miranda agrees. From the way Psyche dress is really a very simple figure when compared to him or to be juxtaposed with Adam. But he knew, he had underestimated that simple figure. In the blink of an eye Psyche had made Adam submit to her.

"But when she saw his eyes, Bibi would know that Psyche was a person who was not easy to guess. He's never 'simple' that." Miranda. "Did Aunt like it?"

Sophia nodded slowly. Miranda doesn't know anything, she's a woman who's hurt because her son prefers a foreign woman over her who has known Adam for longer. But when asked how she felt about Psyche, Sophia could only feel an overwhelming fear. Making him wary of the woman, afraid that someday everything he buried could be dismantled by Psyche to his son. Even if the woman said that she would not reveal her secret.

"Come on," he replied after sighing softly, "We've only met a few times."

Miranda only nodded back, though her heart was slashed. The phone vibrating beside the table seemed to interrupt. Leon's name appears on his advanced phone screen.

Sophia noticed Miranda's different-looking expression while sipping her tea.

Before long the woman smiled stiffly, "It seems I have to leave alone, there is a sudden affair."

"Mirishou?"

The woman almost left the living room when Sophia called back.

"Yes?"

Sophia painstakingly gulped, considering what she needed to do this for the sake of her eldest son. "Have you given up?"

Miranda nodded slowly. "Hmm?"

Sophia knew it was hard, but she had no choice. "Did you mind convincing Adam one more time?"
