Inside the Muse Bar, Thomas is still frantically searching for Ivona. He opened up the crowd who were dancing without burden, curling their bodies with agility.
He stared at each filled bench, hoping that his sister was sitting on one of them. Shaking his phone made Thomas pull over to a corner of the room to pick up a call from his brother. Tommy called.
"Hello, Tom," said Thomas.
"Thomas, where are you?" ask Tommy.
"I'm still at the Muse Bar looking for Ivona" Thomas replied.
"Ivona was found and brought home by Alexander" Tommy said.
"Where are they?" ask Thomas again.
"They just left the Muse Bar, and it will be _____"
Uncompleted Tommy spoke, Thomas immediately closed his call and ran out of the bar. Until he saw a Lincoln limousine away, a clear look of sadness was drawn on his face as he stared at the car that took Ivona away. He again felt failed as a brother, once again he could not protect his sister from the unfair treatment of his family.
Under the rain of Victoria sky, Thomas gazed at the car's nanar that was increasingly disappearing from his sight. Thomas felt his heart empty and sick.

In his speeding car, Alexander only realized his impulsive attitude. He never thought about why he brought Ivona home without thinking. Sometimes he looked at Ivona's face sleeping on his shoulder. This sweet face brought his memories back when he first met Ivona. Back then, this girl was like a pitiful little cat, pretending to be obedient, but not wanting to depend on her.
The more seen, the more make Alexander feel Ivona is quite beautiful with milk-white skin, round eyes and ripe lips. Well ... Ivona's rancid lips made Alexander's gaze switch focus. This pink lips had made Alexander tempted to taste the taste, but he did not do it because he realized this girl was the sister of his friend.
Alexander himself felt strange to him. It's been a while since he left himself untouched by women and had no intention of having a crush on a girl, but Ivona makes his pent-up wish suddenly come out without permission. Slowly Alexander's hand rubbed Ivona's face so quietly in his backrest.
"Good night," she said as if inviting Ivona to speak.
Cars continue to drive down the wetter streets because of the rain. Passing through a row of shops and restaurants that still spoil their customers. Until they arrive at a luxury villa on the outskirts of Victoria.
Ivona awoke from her sleep when she felt the car she was riding stopped. However, he did not immediately open his eyes because he was still trying to collect his life back together with his body. Moments later he had just started to react, his eyes twitching before opening wide.
Alexander who realized Ivona had woken up softly said, "Did I surprise you by braking me?"
Ivona only smiled faintly, because it was impossible for a car as luxurious as this to have a rough braking system. He woke up feeling the car had stopped, not because of the way Alexander stopped his car.
"Are we gonna spend the night here?" ivona asked after looking out the window.
Alexander nodded in agreement.
"I-I mean we're going to sleep apart, not in one room" Ivona explained, making Alexander's smile on the adult man's lips.
Alexander did not expect Ivona to think this far and frankly in front of him. Alexander did not answer Ivona's question, and let the girl be curious about the answer to his question.
"Let's go in," he asked directly out.
Ivona who did not get an answer could only stare at Alexander who came out and walked into the Villa. Not wanting to stay alone in the car, Ivona runs out and catches up with Alexander.
Alexander's villa looks different from his family's classic Victorian house with magnificent architecture and luxury. The villa has a modern and futuristic look free from excessive decorating details. The appearance of the walls with white color and building mass compositions that adapt geometric and organic shapes make this villa design so attractive, so interesting, and of course this Villa belonging to Alexander is bigger than the house of the Iswara family.
As Ivona was so busy admiring the beauty of Villa, Alexander was distancing himself from the girl and was busy contacting someone.
"Did you like this place?" alexander whispered right in Ivona's ear.
A little surprised when Alexander made him startled and bristled at the same time.
"Do you live here alone?" ivona asked to shift the awkwardness of being this close to Alexander.
"No." Alexander shakes. "Because there are you who will accompany me." The sentence just spoken by Alexander instantly made Ivona blushing.
Ivona smiled awkwardly at the man who had just made her blush. He thought about how he could stay by Alexander's side a little longer. Not because of his feelings that started to think crazy about the relationship of men and women, but because for a dozen years this was the first time he had slept so quietly, and all that was because of this man.
Alexander took her to a room. "You can sleep here" Alexander said as he opened the door for Ivona.
Ivona still stared doubtfully at Alexander.
"Calm down, I won't be in a room with you. I slept in that room." Alexander pointed to the other room, which was his room.
Ivona calmly entered the room, after saying good night to Alexander. Not long after Ivona's bedroom door was knocked, she opened it immediately. It turned out that it was not Alexander as he had expected, but rather a middle-aged female servant who had come with a bowl of soup.
"Good night, Miss. I've been ordered by Mr. Alexander to deliver this drunken soup to you" he said before Ivona asked.
"But who's drunk?" ask Ivona. "I'm not drunk, why should I eat sober soup?" connect Ivona.
"I'm sorry, Miss, I'm just following orders from Mr. Alexander. The Young Master also advised that you spend this soup."
Ivona understood the position of this servant, so she asked the servant to bring the soup in. "Just put the soup in there." Ivona pointed at the table in the room.
After the maid left, Ivona looked at the soup made especially for her. A faint smile fell on his lips, remembering that this soup was a form of attention from an Alexander Alberic.
