Scratches of Wound in Fiona's Heart
Found her

"Is this why you asked me to pretend to be your lover in front of your mother because you were waiting for her to come back and intended to marry her?"

In fact, Fiona was only joking with Leon when he said to be his pretended girlfriend. Leon overhears a conversation between Jesy and Fiona when Leon visits Jesy's apartment.

She hears that Fiona was asked by her mother to introduce her chosen man. If her mother agrees, then she may marry the man of her choice until the deadline, otherwise she must marry James.

At that time, Leon immediately joined Fiona and Jesy, then the three of them discussed about it. Fiona, who initially only joked by telling Leon to be her boyfriend so that her mother would no longer press her, was unexpectedly immediately approved by Leon.

Fiona fell silent. "I just don't want my mom to keep urging me to marry James" Fiona replied with a bow.

After Steven's departure for 2 years, Fiona did plan to improve her relationship with Steven and intend to answer the question that Steven had asked her, but now it is no longer. Since 6 months ago he has started accepting and trying to release Steven. He wants to open a new page.

Now, when they meet again, he just doesn't want himself and Steven to be like strangers, especially when Steven helped him a lot. Although they can't be together, Fiona accepts. However, it was his mistake not to clarify from the beginning.

"What's your next plan then? There's only six months left of your mother's time to get married. Are you planning to have a show with me until the wedding stage?" asked Leon with a serious face.

Fiona fell silent then glanced at Steven. "I don't know exactly what I'm going to do in the future either. If I hadn't gotten married to the deadline, I'm sure mom would have kicked me out of the house and wouldn't have considered me her son again."

Leon tilted the corner of his lips while leaning towards Fiona. "You think he's been thinking of you like his son all this time?" It's no secret that Fiona's mother never treated her well. Besides Jesy, Leon knows that, too.

Fiona sighed. "If you don't want to get married, don't get married. If your mother throws you out, stay with me or Jesy. I'll take responsibility for your life, but if you don't want to depend on me, then I'll help you survive" Leon said earnestly.

Fiona seemed to think as she looked towards Steven. "I'll...."

"Excuse me, Mister, Miss.. Here's the order." A restaurant employee interrupted Fiona's speech.

Fiona nodded, after all their orders were placed, the employee left.

"Eat, we'll talk again" Leon said when he saw Fiona was silent.

"Yes." Yeah." Fiona took a spoon and began to eat the food in front of her. Without him noticing, Steven was staring at him and it was realized by Leon.

Finished eating, Fiona stared at Steven's desk but it was empty. Fiona is unaware of Steven's departure.

He then circulated his gaze throughout the room, but did not find it either. Fiona let out a long breath. "You done yet?" leon asked as he watched Fiona fall silent.

Fiona nodded. "I'll drive you home."

"no need. I'm taking the car, just take me to the office" Fiona refused quickly.

"All right."

Steven and Erick just arrived at Steven's mansion. This was the second time he had come here since returning from abroad. Yesterday, he came here after meeting Fiona at the party.

"Sir, wasn't that Miss Fiona? Why don't you say hello?" asked Erick in a soft voice. They just got out of the car and walked towards the door.

Steven opened the door of his mansion and walked in, followed by Erick behind him. "I don't want to bother him," Steven replied indifferently.

"So you really want to stay away from him?"  asked Erick with a frown.

Steven was silent for a moment as he stepped onto the 2nd floor and was still followed by Erick behind him. "Let her be happy with her choice."

"What if Miss Fiona's not happy?" Erick has a hunch that Fiona has feelings for her boss.

Steven stopped at the last step and looked at Erick. "What makes her unhappy when she has a handsome, rich boyfriend?"

Erick seemed to think for a moment. "But in my opinion, you are more handsome and nothing can beat your wealth in this country."

Steven hissing. "But, he turned me down, Rick." Steven again stepped into his study and opened the curtain that covered the glass wall of his study.

"So, have you decided to be together with Miss Sera?"

Steven who was looking out immediately turned to his assistant. "Rick, don't tell my mom I'm here. I'm not going home tonight. Just tell me I'm in my apartment."

Erick nodded. "Good, Sir."

Steven looked back out. "Get me a drink."

"But sir, the doctor has forbidden you to drink" Erick warned. "Do you want to end up in the hospital again?"

Steven looked at Erick. "I'll just drink a little, get it."

Erick took a breath. "Good."

Fiona drives her car when Leon drives her to the office. Instead of going home, Fiona drives her car towards Steven's mansion. He was determined to resolve the misunderstanding between the two of them that night as well.

Arriving at Steven's mansion he asks mansion guard Steven to open it. Usually the guard of the mansion Steven immediately opened the gate when he saw Fiona. This time, the guard stopped Fiona at the gate and did not allow her to enter.

"Please tell Steven that I want to see him" Fiona told a guard named Mr. Rusdi.

Mr. Rudi then returned to the guard post and was seen contacting someone. At the same time Steven who was lying on a long sofa after Spending 2 bottles of alcoholic beverages.

"Master, wake up Master, Miss Fiona is outside."

Erick, who is still in Steven's mansion, is trying to wake up his boss. Seeing his boss not moving, Erick re-awakened him several times. Steven seemed to be closing his eyes after Erick called out to him several times.

Erick shook his head and walked away from Steven. He opened the door slowly. "Good night Miss Fiona" said Erik politely.

Fiona smiled awkwardly at Erick. "Erick's night, I came here to meet Steven" said Fiona a little embarrassed.

"Sorry Miss, Mr. Steven can't see you tonight. Miss Fiona better come home and come back tomorrow."

Erick actually did not have the heart to expel Fiona, just that there was no permission at all from Steven made him not dare to let Fiona enter.

"I just want to see him for a minute, Rick." Fiona looks disappointed because Steven does not want to see her again.

"You can come back tomorrow."

Fiona shook her head quickly. "No, I have to meet him now. I'm sure Steven will definitely go and disappear again if I don't see him tonight."

"Sorry Miss, I'm just following orders, you better go home."

Fiona holds the doorknob when Erick is about to close the door. "Did Steven hate me so much that he wouldn't see me again?"

"No Miss, Mr. Steven never hated you, it's just that Mr. Steven couldn't see you tonight because he was...."

Fiona instantly cut Erick's speech. "Is he with the other woman inside?"

Seriate....
