Suddenly Irene's steps stopped as she managed to recall the faces of the two men standing guard at the door. Irene's body suddenly trembled, her breathing rang erratically, she was terrified. Instantly the dark and terrible memories of the past again filled the entire space in his brain. As if opening the seams of old wounds that were now torn apart just by looking at the two men, Irene felt like she was going to be hunted down again.

A girl walked slowly towards a narrow alley trying to figure out what was going on. The girl's eyes glared far away sweeping the entire street in that narrow alley. He trembled violently, his eyes were round and his hands were shut in disbelief, shocked to see two men lying helplessly covered in blood, while four other men stood with pistols they held each.

One of the four men noticed the presence of the girl standing in front of the alley, the girl standing tremblingly staring at him.

"Hey! There was someone there" said the man who noticed the girl's presence while pointing a gun at the girl.

'Oh no! They saw me!!' the girl screamed.

The girl was trembling more and more, her eyes were starting to glaze over she was completely scared to death. His mind was empty but his feet began to step away from the narrow alley.

Irene remembered now, the two men standing guard at the door of the Ballroom. It was a bald man and a man with a scar on his chin and there were two other men. On that terrible night, the four men ran after Irene, a little girl who had accidentally witnessed the bloodshed in the narrow alley.

“Irene!” call Cassandra worried as she noticed the change in expression on the woman's face.

“Irene, are you okay?” cassandra asked the more worried it seemed like Irene was out of focus, she looked like a frightened person.

“Irene!” call Cassandra again.

Irene let out a long breath, she relaxed and closed her eyes for a moment.

The waiter who sent them was also worried. “Are you okay, Miss?”

Irene nodded weakly. “Already, already, it's okay.”

“Looks like you're not feeling well. We should just go home,” said Cassandra suddenly and began to call Irene to leave. However, Irene held him back.

“No, don't go home. Come on, let's go in first and meet your friends to congratulate the grand opening of this hotel,” said Irene.

No matter how Irene got into it, she had to figure out who was hosting the party, who was the owner of the hotel and who was actually the boss of the four men who were chasing her that night.

“You sure you're okay?” cassandra asked doubtfully.

“I'm fine, Cassandra.”

Then they entered the Ballrom room. Inside the room was truly like a hidden paradise. Decorations with elegant and super luxurious all-white shades dominate this room. With classy food and drinks and service to international standards that spoil the invited guests. Anyone would be in the middle of this party.

Irene circulated a sweeping look throughout the room, she saw countless people in neat black suits guarding this room. Irene felt that the guards here were very strict and it seemed like the people on duty were specially trained people or maybe people trained in a special organization. Is there someone or a very important guest here?

“Where is he?” cassandra was busy looking for someone. It seems he was looking for his friend to congratulate him.

“Wah, it looks like your friend is an important person, yes. Maybe he's a politician? Or maybe the president's son, haha.” joked Irene tried to find out the background of Cassandra's friend without having to ask seriously because later Cassandra might be suspicious.

Cassandra chuckled at hearing that. “Not, no. But, I admit he is a handsome man who is well established and also a reliable business man. It's a pity that she's had a boyfriend for a long time and just got married. The cornering was very high, but I was just a wafer crumb. Hahaha.”.

Irene laughed at Cassandra's words. “That's funny your joke.”

“Ah, that's it!” cassandra said, pointing to a handsome man standing in the middle of a crowd of people who seemed to be busy talking.

Irene turned her gaze towards the direction Cassandra was pointing at. At the same time the man pointed at Cassandra looked at them and the man smiled kindly and slowly walked over to Irene and Cassandra.

“I miss you,” said the man when he arrived in front of Irene and Cassandra, he immediately hugged Irene.

“Geraldine, do you know Irene?” tanyanya.

Gerald who was still hugging Irene nodded in response, while Irene froze in Gerald's arms. Irene was thinking about the worst possibilities in her brain about Gerald. That the friend Cassandra was talking about was Gerald, that means he's the owner of this hotel and the boss of the four men who almost killed Irene in her past is also Gerald who is her own brother.

“Cannot Gerald,” Ogre Irene in heart.

Gerald outlined his embrace and looked at Irene longingly. “How are you?”

Irene looked at Gerald anxiously before answering the man's question, Irene remembered Alice. Alice was fine after her marriage to Gerald.

“How's Alice doing?” Irene asked, worried about Alice.

Gerald smiled and stroked Irene's head.

“Hey, you should either answer my question or ask your sister back. But you asked Alice back. Actually me or Alice is your brother?” said Gerald pouting.

Irene felt Gerald was very calm and did not look as scary at all as Gerald had in Irene's mind at the moment. Is it possible that Irene's suspicions were wrong? After all Irene had no evidence whatsoever. And two men standing guard at Ballrom's door used to work with a bad guy and then retired and switched to working with Gerald. That could have happened, Irene should not be rash to conclude something that is not necessarily true just based on her thoughts and suspicions.

“Why should I ask you when you are in front of my eyes, Gerald,” Irene said with a contrived smile. He must be able to melt the atmosphere, he can not look quiet with his fear.

“Ah, you are indeed my sweet sister.”

Cassandra who was confused watching the two people in front of her began to speak up.

“Wait, wait a minute. Brother, Alice, what are you talking about? Oh, come on, I'm the only one who doesn't understand here,” Cassandra pouted.

Gerald looked at Cassandra with a smile.

“Irene is my younger sister and Alice is my wife. Turns out you don't really know me, how far do you know me, Ms.Damora?” Gerald was still smiling.

While Cassandra blushed embarrassed to see this handsome man in her face smiling sweetly at her. On the other hand, Irene actually felt something strange with a smile and the last words thrown by Gerald. ‘About how far you know me, Ms.Damora.’

“Ah, sorry, Mr.Ricardo. I haven't even met your wife, hehe.” Cassandra said.

“It's okay. Next time I will introduce it to others as well,” said Gerald.

Irene was getting weird, why didn't Gerald introduce Alice to his business partner here? As Irene knew, Gerald always took Alice to every important inauguration or meeting, but why didn't Alice come this time?

“Indeed why didn't Alice come?” Irene asked trying to find out.

“She's pregnant, Irene. I can't let my pregnant wife go here,” Gerald said.

“Wah... You are really a sweet man, Mr.Ricardo,” Cassandra praised.

Getting pregnant? Is Alice really pregnant? Strange, Irene didn't even hear the pregnancy news from Alice. Even behind this they have never called each other, they only often send messages.

“Congratulations to you, Gerald. That means soon you'll be a father,” Irene congratulates Gerald with her sparkling eyes.

“And that means soon you too will become a aunt. Hahaha..” Laughter Gerald.

There was nothing strange about Gerald's expression and manner of speaking, but still Irene still doubted the man. Irene was pretty sure there was something Gerald might have hidden from her.

“Other times me and Zean will visit you, Gerald,” said Irene.

Gerald nodded straight. “I'm really looking forward to that moment. I look forward to your arrival, Mr. and Mrs. Lorwerth.”

Then they mingled with everyone at the party, enjoying the food and drinks as well as the festive atmosphere. A few hours later, the party ended.

“Be careful on the road, Irene. Sorry to not be able to drive you and Cassandra because I still have to greet the invited guests who want to go one by one,”, Gerald said as Irene and Cassandra were about to say goodbye.

“Until we meet again, Gerald,” Irene kisses her sister's cheek.

“Thank you for the invitation, Mr.Ricardo,” said Cassandra.

Then Irene and Cassandra got out of the Ballroom and headed straight for their car which was parked neatly in a special VVIP parking lot. As they got closer to the car Irene suddenly noticed a speck of red light on Cassandra's left chest, the light looked like a laser that usually came from a sniper rifle. Irene realized someone had targeted Cassandra. Irene immediately panicked looking around, on top of a tall building there was a person with a sniper rifle who seemed to be targeting Cassandra. Without hesitation Irene immediately pulled Cassandra over and they both collapsed together with the thick red liquid flowing from the sniper rifle's shot.
