In the afternoon, after being satisfied to go around, Fiona and Steven intend to say goodbye to Mr. Nurdin and his wife.
"Are you done?" Steven approaches Fiona to check if Fiona has prepared the items he will bring home.
Fiona turned her head while smiling at Steven who had just entered. "It."
Apparently, Mr. Nurdin's wife had taken valuables belonging to Fiona's mother. In the past, Mr. Nurdin's wife had worked at Fiona's parents' house before the house was sold.
After the change of ownership, Mr. Nurdin's wife returned to her hometown. It was only after Steven bought the house that he also looked for people who had worked at Fiona's parents' house and when he managed to find it, he was also looking for people who had worked at Fiona's home, Steven asked Mr. Nurdin and his wife to work with him to guard the house.
"Alright, then we go home now."
Steven walked past Fiona and then lifted 2 bags with a large size Fiona containing her mother's belongings.
"Steve, give me one." Fiona reached out to Steven to ask for a bag that was in Steven's hand.
Steven stopped right next to Fiona. "Let me carry it, '" Steven refused.
"But, Steve is heavy, let me help you carry one. I'm used to carrying heavy things."
Fiona felt bad about letting Steven carry her personal belongings. As the heir of HK Group, Steven never even brought his own belongings.
She was used to being served by others, how could Fiona treat Steven as she pleased while her parents treated him like a precious pearl.
"From now on, I won't let you carry any more heavy goods and do any other manual labor. Your hands should only be used to care for our children later."
Fiona looks touched and looks at Steven lovingly. "Don't look at me like I am. You can break down my defenses." Steven smiled teasingly at Fiona.
Fiona then swung her lips forward, in response to Steven's temptation. "Let's go home." Fiona flanked Steven's hand with a smile and walked out together.
After saying goodbye, the three of them returned to their city. "Fio, sleep. The journey is still far. I'll wake you when we get there" Steven said, looking at Fiona.
Fiona did feel tired because from the morning she went around the entire area of the house and continued to tour the area around her parents' house. He felt his feet ache and hurt.
"All right." Fiona rested her head on Steven's shoulder and closed her eyes.
Traveling for 2 hours more, they arrived at Steven's mansion at 4 pm. "Fio, wake up." Steven rubbed softly on Fiona's cheek.
Sensing a touch of his cheek, Fiona immediately opened her eyes. "We've arrived" Steven continued when he saw Fiona rubbing her eyes.
"Sorry, Steve. I overslept." Fiona moved her head away from Steven's shoulder.
Steven started to move. "Aawww." Steven grimaced while holding his left arm.
Fiona panicked. "Why? Does your hand hurt?" fiona asked with a worried face.
Steven shakes. "I'm fine. My hands are just numb" Steven replied quickly. As long as he's over the clock Steven can't move his left hand for fear Fiona will wake up.
Fiona immediately put on a guilty face. "Sorry Steve, it's all my fault that I slept leaning too long on you."
Steven smiled then gently rubbed Fiona's head with his right hand. "Don't blame yourself. I'm it's okay. It's gone soon."
Steven was trying to explain to Fiona so she wouldn't feel guilty anymore. "Come, we're going down."
Fiona nods then descends along with Steven on the different side of the car. After that, they go inside Erick followed while carrying Fiona's belongings.
"Fio, you rest first. I have business and I have to go" Steven said when he was in Fiona's room.
Fiona frowned. "You go alone?" Fiona wanted to ask Steven where he was going, but the words out were just another.
"No, I went with Erick. Don't waitfor me. Maybe I'll be home by night" Steven said. "If you're hungry you order at a restaurant, don't cook."
Steven pulled out a card and thrust at Fiona. "Wear this, whatever message you want."
Fiona pushes the hand of Steven holding the card. "No need for Steve. I still have money," Fiona refused politely.
"Fiona, did you forget what I said? Do I need to repeat?" Steven is seen getting angry at Fiona for refusing his gift.
Seeing Steven does not want to be denied makes Fiona forced to obey the words Steven. "Well, I'll use it." Fiona then takes the card in Steven's hand.
Fiona stared for a moment at the card in her hand. "His chin is our anniversary date." Fiona immediately raised her head looking at Steven with a surprised face.
"Why? Did you forget our anniversary?"
Fiona immediately shook her head before Steven misunderstood. "No, I remember," explained Fiona.
"All right, I'll go first." Steven advanced towards Fiona and then kissed Fiona's forehead. "Just be yourself."
Fiona nodded. "Be careful."
******
Steven was seen visiting one of the famous restaurants located not far from his parents' mansion. Arriving there, he entered along with Erick. He then sat by a glass window that directly faced the view of the city. While Erick sat at another table not far from Steven.
"I just came. Did I interrupt your shooting schedule?"
Sera smiled sweetly. "No, there were only a few obstacles so that my work was longer than usual" Sera explained.
"What do you want to order?" Steven opened the menu book and gave it to Sera.
"Hhhhhhhh." Sera seemed to think while staring and flipping through the menu book. "What do you want to order yourself?" Sera looked confused so she asked Steven.
"Just like you."
Steven and Sera's tastes were not that different that Sera had no trouble ordering a meal for Steven. They have a lot in common in many things.
Sera nodded then called the restaurant clerk and ordered the food directly. Once food was available, the two of them ate without speaking.
"Steve, this weekend do you have any free time?" ask Sera after they finish eating.
Steven thought for a moment. "I don't know my schedule yet. Why?"
"Can you accompany me to one of my friend's shows."
Sera was very hopeful Steven could accompany her. During this time, Steven often accompanied him to an event or to a party of his acquaintances, and vice versa.
"I have to get permission with Fiona first."
Sera immediately smiled wryly. "Steve, are you trying to keep your distance from me now? Didn't you accompany me often? It's just a regular event. Do you have to treat me like everyone else?"
"Sera, I just don't want Fiona to misunderstand me."
"Steve, you said nothing changed from us, even though you already had a boyfriend, but what now?"
Sera looks angry and disappointed in Steven. During this time, Steven had never refused his invitation, unless he had a very important affair.
"Yeah, I used to say that, but, between couples, you have to be open to each other. I have to keep telling Fiona and if she doesn't let me, I can't go with you."
"Well, let me ask Fiona for permission so she doesn't misunderstand you." According to Sera, it is easier to persuade Fiona than Steven.
"Seraa, I want to ask you something about Fiona." Steven looked seriously at Sera.
"Fiona? What's up?" Sera seemed to be thinking and trying to guess what questions Steven would ask. Could it....
"Have you met Fiona before?"
Although surprised, but Sera tried to neutralize her shock and displayed an ordinary face as if the question had no effect on her in the least. "No, aren't you the one who doesn't want to introduce me to her?"
Steven stared at the two eyeballs of Sera alternately with a difficult to interpret gaze. "Are you sure you never met him?"
Sera smiled and nodded confidently. "of course. What's wrong? Did Fiona tell you we've met?"
Sera was wondering why Steven asked her that. Has Fiona complained to Steven and told him everything, Sera thought.
"No, I just want to know. You don't look awkward asking her for permission."
Steven deliberately did not tell Sera that he already knew the truth. He just wanted to know, if Sera would be honest if she asked him directly.
In Sera's heart immediately sighed. "Steve, you're changing. Since you've been in a relationship with Fiona, it's been like I don't know you. You have suspected me 2 times without proof. I'm a little disappointed in you." Sera pretended to show a disappointed and sad face.
"Sera, don't try to lie to me. You know, if I wanted to, I could figure out the truth easily."
Sera clasped both her hands under the table firmly. He tried to cover up his fear. "Yeah, I know, but I never did anything Steve."
Steven looked seriously at Sera. "Never do anything I don't like, Sera. You should know that Fiona is my threshold, so don't even try to test my patience. Don't make me hate you." Steven deliberately bullied Sera so she wouldn't mess with Fiona.
Sera's hands instantly trembled, but she was still trying to keep looking calm.
"Steve, I understand that you love Fiona, but you can't threaten me like this."
Sera doesn't expect Steven to threaten her just because of Fiona. All this time, Steven had always been gentle with her. Never once did he say rude or angry to her. Actually Steven also did not want to threaten Sera, but, if he did not do that, I don't know in the future what Sera will do to Fiona.
"I just wanted to warn you ahgar you're more careful going forward. I hope you don't forget my words." Steven then stood up and held Sera's shoulder. "I came home first, sorry I couldn't take you." Steven then walked away leaving Sera alone.
Warned me? You threatening me Steve? You made me hate Fiona more. He took you from me, I should have been the one who was angry.
At first, I intended to talk to her carefully, but seeing that you were protecting her so much that you even threatened me, I would no longer be so kind to her.
There's only one person who can be by your side. Let's see, until when you can protect her.
I don't intend to back off Steve. You must be mine. Don't ever blame me for what I'm going to do because you made me this way.
Seriate....
