Police station an hour later,
"No, Mama. I'll never apologize to that j@l@ng. He took Anthony from me. He deserves all of it." Tiffany refuses her mother's request to
Mrs Wilson had a headache, she pinched the arm of her favorite son. "Have it done, just follow it first. What matters is that you get out of here. Giving up doesn't mean losing, does it?" mrs Wilson whispered to her stubborn son.
Tiffany pouted, her eyes glaring at her Mama. Her Mama's scars feel hot on the skin. She knew that her mother had gone to great lengths to persuade Toni to meet her and drop the charges. But Tiffany is too high-minded, she's proud to admit her mistake.
"I don't want to break up any relationship with him. Our cooperation is still ongoing, my assistant will take care of everything. I still want to marry him."
Toni glanced at her watch, she had promised Eliana she would be back in two hours. And now he's getting a rejection from Tiffany. Really wasting time! Eliana needs herself more now.
"That means we don't get a deal, right?" ask Toni to make sure once more before leaving.
"No way! Don't expect." growled Tiffany.
"Tiff... " Mrs Wilson tried to persuade.
"Why should I give up, Ma? I'm not wrong - what. I know that he married that J@l@ng and now he's throwing his mistakes at me."
Argh!! It feels like someone is dousing embers in Toni's heart with gasoline. He was kind enough to negotiate with them. If only he could not remember his promise to Mommy to look after Tiffany for life, Tiffany would have run out.
But Toni promised herself, this is the last one. His promise to Mommy he thought was paid off. And everything, because of Tiffany's own behavior.
"Are you delusional, huh? Forgot what you did to Eliana?" Toni clenched her hands. "And also, to me? How about Bryan, I see with my own eyes your innocent body!" Toni suddenly remembered a piece of the scene of Bryan and Tiffany being naked, just before the accident.
"But what matters is that he's okay now. My condition is much worse than her." Complain Tiffany, stay strong on his stand.
Toni looked at Mom and the boy in turn. Free. There are no more negotiations.
"So we really don't agree, right?" Tony asked to be sure once more. Still be kind to give it a chance.
"You need to know, Miss Tiffany and Mrs Wilson." Toni purposely mentioned Miss and Madam to them to show some distance. "The negotiation was my generosity. With or without a deal, I'm saying that I'm Anthony Peterson has nothing to do with Tiffany Wilson. Regarding the termination of cooperation and others, the process will begin tomorrow."
Toni looked hard at Tiffany. His ex-wife-to-be is actually daunted, but he pretends to be tough and dares to challenge the fiery Toni.
The two women from the Wilson family shuddered in horror, they had already awakened the sleeping lion. And the lion was now in a position ready to pounce, swallowing anyone.
"Mama... " Rengek Tiffany, as usual his last weapon was whining.
Mrs Wilson smiled weakly, she tried to take the heart of the man before her. To his knowledge, although it seems stiff but Toni always obeyed Laura's mandate. "Anthony, do you want your Mommy to be sad to see your relationship and Tiffany broken?"
"It's not me who's ruining it but him." Tony pointed at Tiffany with his index finger.
Mrs Wilson looked at Tiffany with a look of despair.
"Well, I know this concept won't get into your mind. You never care about good relations between people. What you have in mind is reputation, money, position, power. Throw away every way to get it." Tony raised his hand, giving up. He's here because he's considering the good relationship between Peterson and Wilson who are already such close relatives.
"I'm done with The Wilson."
Tony turned around to leave the room without looking back.

Everything feels so strange to Eliana, starting from Toni's attitude that tends to be awkward and closed, how Toni clearly looks if she is lying. Then Toni was like avoiding her. He chose to stop on the street and go somewhere instead of going home with him to the mansion.
And what's annoying is that Eliana's brain can't work together very well. It was like there was something he had missed, but I didn't know what it was.
Alex recounts the outline of the incident and how Toni's anger was with them until they could no longer find Eliana. Doctor Livia is considered negligent and Alex is accused of being careless until John is fooled.
They had not even told Grandpa for fear of him being shocked. Though he had also repeatedly asked Eliana who had not come home since saying goodbye would go to dinner with Oscar. Toni just told Grandpa that they were staying somewhere and were going home soon.
Together with Alex and Doctor Livia, Eliana seems to compose a puzzle piece. Once everything is neatly arranged and becomes a complete picture, Eliana can only be confused.
Is this why Tony behaves so differently?
"I'm sorry, Eliana. If I hadn't gone drunk, there wouldn't have been that. For God's sake, I'm so sorry." Doctor Livia's tears came back, she was resting on the carpet, her hands were placed on Eliana's knees sitting on the sofa.
Both of Eliana's hands hugged herself, feeling a growing sense of disgust enveloping her. Ah, she now remembered the faces - the grinning faces of those b@jing@n. His skin could still feel touch after touch. Eliana shuddered. It's a nightmare.
"Eleila... "
Eliana closed her eyes firmly while shaking her head trying to shake off the bad shadow that kept on passing by. His hands were getting tighter hugging his body which started to tremble.
'Oh my God, he almost fell victim to the abuse of s-e-k-s-u-a-l. And gosh! It happened on the night of his bride. What a disaster!'
He almost lost his virginity in the hands of those rotten men. She took care of her most precious treasure for her husband later, on their special night.
Alex glanced at Doctor Livia with puzzled eyes. "Twd... " Call her, try to return Eliana to the real world.
Doctor Livia flinched. Holy hooch! Again he made a big mistake. The woman in front of him was in shock, because of Alex's story and her own. Oh, shame on her. He who used to handle patients, now just back plunged Eliana just because it was too sad. Really unprofessional.
(How embarrassing he is.)
Doctor Livia's hand trembled, knowing that this moment of apology would not be enough to treat Eliana's trauma.
"Your apology does not accept Doctor Livia."
They turned their heads and found Toni coming with a ferocious expression, ready to swallow anyone. He walked up to them with wide steps.
Doctor Livia is deathly pale, she knows her career is over today as well.
"Toni." Alex jumps to his feet and intercepts Toni's steps. "I know this isn't easy. We're all in a rage. At least let us apologize to Eliana."
Suddenly Toni is fed up with saying sorry, if only with an apology can all be played back. Even hundreds of thousands of times he apologized to Eliana, all felt in vain.
"Get out of us." Toni's voice sounded cold and heartless.
"But Toni, Eliana needs support."
"GO!" Tony brushed Alex's hand off his shoulder. "Let us alone."
"Toni-"
"Eliana needs a break. Don't bother us!" Toni gritted her teeth and whispered. "You. you guys have ruined my efforts. I tried so hard that the police wouldn't go to Eliana and interrogate her. And you guys leaked everything. Oh, s-h-i-t. You're complicating my position."
"Toni... " Alex gulped, his face completely paled. "I swear, we don't have a point-"
"Alex, you should go to the main house and accompany Grandpa. Don't look your face in front of me again. Enough is enough." Toni continued to cut Alex's sentence before the younger brother could finish. He didn't want to hear any excuses from Alex.
"But Toni--"
"Please, understand us. We need time to understand all this."
(Please understand.)
