After that dinner, Irene threw her tiny body on her king-size bed while glancing at the wall clock, at 09.45 pm.

"What do you think?"

Irene gasped in shock at Alice's voice.

"What how?" ask Irene back.

Alice gave a rough breath. "Basic fool!" alice was upset.

"What do you think of Gerald? Is he good? Gentlemanly? A handsome? Cooly? Or what?" tanyakanya.

Irene was silent for a moment, she seemed to think while looking at Alice with a serious look.

"I think Gerald is the kind of guy who can't easily forget his past. I'm sure the person she said looked like me must be her ex-boyfriend" Irene said in a serious manner.

Alice's face turned pale.

"Are you serious about what you say?" ask Alice lirih.

"Of course, I'm serious" Irene paused as she looked at the silent Alice with her blank look.

"I'm seriously teasing you, Alice" Irene chuckled.

Alice threw a sharp glare and then hit Irene with a pillow. "Damn, you!" said annoyed.

"Stop, Alice" ringis Irene.

Alice stopped her action and sat down next to Irene.

"So, what do you think of Geraldine Ricardo?" Alice asked again.

"To me Gerald is a good-natured, polite, friendly and charming handsome guy" Irene praised.

Alice smiled hearing that and hugged Irene while leaning her head on Irene's shoulder.

"Alice" call Irene.

"Hm" said Alice.

"Did you tell Gerald I wasn't your real sister?" ask Irene.

"Not yet"

"I beg you not to tell him first, Alice. I want us to tell him together" Irene interrupted.

Alice smiled warmly.

"Of course, Irene. We will tell him together, wait for the time" said Alice while hugging her sister then her gaze turned to look at Irene's phone ringing, there was a call from 'stranger'

Alice broke out her embrace and Irene quickly accepted the call.

"What's wrong?" ask Irene.

"Hurry out, I'm outside waiting for you" Zean said across the phone.

"Hm" Irene said, then the connection was cut off.

Irene walked towards the balcony followed by Alice behind her, Irene and Alice staring down together. Sure enough outside there are already Zean cars parked waiting for Irene's arrival.

"Who is a stranger?" alice asked Irene who was busy choosing clothes because Irene could not possibly wear this dress, Zean would definitely think this was too much.

"Mr.Lorwerth" answered Irene.

"You're going with him?" ask Alice again.

"Hm"

"Then get out fast, Irene. Just wear this dress, you look beautiful and charming with this dress" Alice said as she pulled her sister closer to the large mirror in the room.

"You're looking like a princess, Irene" exclaimed Alice.

Sure enough, Irene did look like a princess using a maroon-colored knee-length dress accompanied by matching heels. So perfect!

"But-"

"Nothing but a fireplace, get out" Alice cut and Irene passed away.

Out. Zean waited while leaning against his car, looking down at his shoes while smoking his cigarette.

"Sorry to wait, Mr. Lorwerth" Irene told Zean, who was still smoking her cigarette.

Zean dropped his cigarette and stepped on the fire until it went out. Now he turned to look at Irene, glued.

Zean really couldn't take his eyes off anywhere other than Irene. Zean seemed to be hypnotized by Irene's charm tonight, really this woman before him really drove him crazy.

Zean pulled on Irene's small waist, then whispered right in Irene's eavesdropping. "You're looking so beautiful to night" then Zean kissed Irene's cheek.

A blush! Irene heated up, her cheeks suddenly flushed red like a boiled crab.

Irene turned her face away, trying to hide her red cheeks. Irene's heart was pounding and her legs were limp. Oh lord! As small as anything Zean did was able to make it melt.

"Don't tease me, Mr. Lorwerth" Irene said unequivocally.

Zean pulled Irene's chin gently so that she could look into the beautiful eyes of the woman before him. Now Irene was also staring at Zean, the two pairs of eyes were staring at each other in silence.

"Don't look at me like this. You made me tremble, Irene" said Zean.

Irene furrowed her brows.

"Shaking like ap-"

"Like this" cut Zean and kissed the girl before him.

Zean wrapped his hands around Irene's small waist. Zean never got tired of Irene's lips, the woman's lips were so intoxicating to him.

Zean let go of his kiss and gave Irene a chance to breathe and then she stroked the woman before him.

"What?" said Irene with the face 'are u kidding me?'

Holy hooch! This guy really-sucks! Just now she made Irene feel so special and now she's back to pissing this woman off.

Zean got into the car and sat down next to the driver's seat. Then he opened the car glass while looking at Irene who was still sculpting like a fool.

"Hurry in, my beautiful driver" Zean said with a mischievous smile.

"You're such a jerk!" lament Irene was upset.

🍂🍂🍂

It's been twenty minutes Irene is still focused on driving with a goal that is somewhere. He asked Zean but there was no answer, and the man was busy with the macbook on his lap.

Finish!" exclaim Zean while closing the macbook.

Oh finally, he stopped staring at the damn macbook screen.

"Where are we headed, Mr. Lorwerth?" Irene asked for the umpteenth time.

"Airport" Zean replied at last.

Irene glanced at Zean at a glance and then looked back at the street.

"Whatdidyou say? The airport?" Irene asked to make sure.

"Yes, we have business in Melbourne. Tomorrow afternoon is a pre-cedure meeting" Zean explained casually.

Just as Irene was about to speak, Zean had already preceded her.

"Don't babble this time, and focus on driving" Zean said.

Irene immediately pouted and did not comment anything. Honestly the girl wanted to protest to Zean because of this sudden business affair, Irene did not prepare anything to take even she did not say goodbye to Alice. Oh really, shitty!

"Irene" call Zean.

"Hm" Irene turned a glance and looked back at the street.

"Add to the speed and the two cars behind" Zean said suddenly, staring at the rear view of the car.

Irene noticed the two cars from earlier, but she did not feel anything strange at all.

"What's with those two cars? Are they stalkers? A psychopath? A hit man? Or ....." Irene hung up her words.

" You're overreacting, Mr. Lorwerth. Did you watch too many movies like this, your fear was overrated. Could it be, those two cars are going to the airport or the hotel or the club that just happened to be on the line with us and-"

"They're after me, Irene" Zean's cut sounded serious.

Whahuh? Irene digested Zean's sentence earlier, what did she say? 'They're after me'

Irene gulped down her hard-earned saliva, now the fear began to feel. Oh lord! Irene was too young to die silly with this foreign man. Without hesitation Irene immediately increased the speed to above average, she should be able to trick the two cars.

"You really are a beautiful and sexy reliable driver" seduced Zean.

Oh my god, this guy! Under these circumstances it could still tempt Irene.

"Stop teasing me!!"

Irene tried to focus on staying on the road regardless of Zean's temptations. Irene was getting more and more convinced that if this foreign man was really crazy, how not? In life and death, the man could still tease Irene.

Immediately Irene stepped on the car brake, making Zean's body jolt to the depqn. Fortunately he was wearing a seatbelt, Irene braked suddenly. There were two men standing in front of a parked car blocking the street.

"Do you want us to die together with a sudden braking like this" Zean scolded while neutralizing his shocked heartbeat as a result of Irene instantly stepping on the car brakes.

Irene did not foresee Zean's nagging.

"What should we do, Mr. Lorwerth?" ask Irene.

Now that Zean looked at Irene with his flat face, Zean looked so relaxed that there was not even the slightest look of fear on his handsome face.

"Are you good at fighting, Ms. Banner?" Zean asked back.

Irene snorted in annoyance, while twitching her non-dizzy head.

"I beg! Stop your jokes, Mr. Lorwerth" said Irene, she's really scared right now. While Zean only chuckled at the look of the scared face of this woman, very funny.

"Come on!" said Zean.

Irene glared at Zean who had removed his seatbelt and immediately followed Zean out of the car. Irene looked at Zean, there was no fear in her eyes. Zean clasped Irene's hand tightly as if saying 'don't worry, everything will be fine'

Irene watched the movements of the two men before them. Without hesitation the two men pointed their pistols at Zean, and...

'DOORRR!' the sound of gunfire was so vividly heard in Irene's ears, it was playing the same music that happened seven years ago when the girl was shot in the dark and quiet streets of Boston.

"Mr.Lorwerth!!" irene exclaimed spontaneously hugging Zean tightly, and seconds later Irene cried in that embrace.

That moment also the feeling of fear of loss re-emerged in his heart. Pain and pain began to envelop, tears dripping down Irene's cheeks felt hot. God, please save Zean.

Zean's hand moved stroking Irene's head that was submerged in Zean's chest. Irene further tightened her embrace, her body shaking from her broken dikes after hearing the gunshot.

"So, are you worried about me, Ms. Banner?" zean asked sounds like he's fine.

Irene broke out her embrace then looked at Zean. Whahuh? How could? Look, Zean's fine. Irene's gaze turned to look at the two men earlier. And behold, the two men lay covered in blood.

Irene looked confused but there was an unstoppable sense of pleasure when she saw Zean was fine. It felt like he wanted to curse for every tear that soaked his face at this moment.

"Aa..paa what happened?" Irene was confused.

"I'm an important person, Irene. It's not that easy to kill an Arzean Lorwerth" Zean replied.

Irene was more confused, what exactly happened and what did Zean say? Ready for the real Zean? Why would anyone want his death?

"I'll explain everything later" Zean said as if understanding the girl's confused look.

Irene looked at Zean's annoyance, damn, Irene must have looked like a fool crying out of concern for Zean. Irene was very sure that at this moment Zean was being fertilized in her heart to see Irene who was crying like a boy who wanted a lollipop. Irene was about to wipe away her tears but Zean immediately blocked Irene's hand.

"Let go, asshole!!" exciting Irene.

Zean still blocked Irene's hand while looking into the eyes of the girl before him. And seconds later,

'cup!' one brief kiss landed on Irene's lips.

"I'm happy to see you crying like you are now, which means you're worried about me. Thank you, Irene" said Zean.
