"Welcome to Bashara's residence, Miss. Let's follow me .." said Uncle Will in a polite tone. He himself was especially entrusted with welcoming Violet's arrival.
"Well," Violet answered briefly. He followed Uncle Will's path. However, ever since he entered the Bashara residence, his eyes kept glancing at all angles. Then, for no apparent reason he suddenly bowed and smiled bitterly.
The house never changes. All the decorations and the location were exactly the same as the one in my memory. In fact, the butler in this residence was still Uncle Will. He's getting older, it seems like he's forgotten about me. Wellh .. After all it's been a long time, almost 23 years I haven't set foot in this house. It's only natural that he forgot who I am.
"Miss, we've arrived" said Uncle Will who immediately awakened Violet from daydreaming.
"Eh?! Thank you, Uncle Will!" replied Violet who immediately darted into the dining room first. She immediately approached Sherina who was waiting for her arrival with a smile full of hospitality.
"...." - ".Uncle Will was silent for a moment, but a moment later he shook his head slowly and quickly left.
Strange, I haven't told you my name yet. How could he know? Is it possible that Mrs Sherina told her about me? Ah, never mind, there's no point in over-thinking, it's better I go to the kitchen to tell the chefs if the guests have arrived.
Until now, it could be said that the banquet held to express gratitude was going quite well. Violet the guest of honor seemed to be enjoying the dish, as well as the conversation that was going on between them was also unfathomable.
However, there was someone who had been incessantly watching Violet ever since. She is none other than Ariana.
"...."
This Violet .. if I pay attention, she's a graceful and beautiful person. Judging from his behavior is also like a cultured person. And again, he is a journalist, his intelligence is no doubt. She is worthy enough to be the mistress of the Bashara Family in the future. Maybe she's fit to be my new doll.
Cleo I can't count on anymore. Anyway as much as possible I should approach and brainwash her. So that he'll be my tool in getting rid of Sherina! Then, the curse will still be real and my hands will still be clean! Heh, this is the perfect plan! Anyway I'm sick enough of continuing to pretend to be nice to Sherina!
"Violet!" call Ariana with a friendly smile.
"Yes, Mrs Ariana?" ask Violet.
"I hear you're a journalist, and you're often writing pretty controversial news. I'm grateful to you for not posting news about Sherina's assault last night. You see, if someone else finds out, it will cause bad speculation on the Bashara Family."
"Ah, about that Madam take it easy. Even though the news I wrote was quite controversial, I still obeyed the applicable laws. I will only write news related to someone if the person concerned gives me permission. After all ... news I wrote more news that leads to politics. I rarely write news about infotainment, because I am not a journalist who likes to follow artists or celebrities," Violet replied with a polite smile.
"Haha, great. I was a little worried about this. Thank goodness my worries weren't right. That's all I want to ask, you can continue eating your food" Ariana replied with an awkward laugh.
"...." - ".Violet nodded slowly and then continued eating her food. Even though her expression was as calm as water, Violet's inner being felt cynical after responding to Ariana.
Heh, it's easy to get hooked. Ariana is interested in me. I don't know what he's up to, this could be a chance for me. Unfortunately, I'm not interested in being close to him. Because I'm more interested in Sherina whose heart is clean. But ... There's no harm if I also pretend to like Ariana.
The dinner ended impressively. Who would have thought Sherina was the most enthusiastic. It was not without reason that she acted like that, the reason being that she with Violet had exchanged phone numbers. So in this way, he really hopes to become close friends and meet more often later.

The investigation over a short period of time has yielded results. The police managed to uncover the criminal organization that houses the hired killers who have been caught. However, not all the arrest process went smoothly, because the main boss of this gangster group managed to escape. As a result, the police are still difficult to know the source of funds and the actual mastermind.
The news of the arrest is certainly not cover-up, although the matter of the attack on Sherina remains secret. The mass media has been made excited because this case is enough to make them shiver and amazed at the achievements of the police.
STUMPLINGS!
"Damn! Fail again, fail again!" cleo shouted in frustration. He did not even hesitate to throw and slam things that were nearby. The news of the failure of the hitman he had paid dearly made it seem like he wanted to go crazy.
"Sherina .. the jal*ng actually has how many lives?! Why is it so hard to get rid of him?!"
"Now what should I do?! What else do I do?! Vicky dumped me! Mama Ariana doesn't care about me either!"
"Can't .. can't keep this up! Anyway, I have to think of a way! I love Vicky with all my heart! In this world only I have the right to be his wife!"
Cleo continued to grumble and curse Sherina to no end. In fact, his hands to join trembling, pacing indistinctly while gripping his own sleeve until the cloth becomes tangled.
These were the days Cleo was currently living. He continues to obsess over Vicky to the point of ignoring himself. In fact, the servants who worked in his house were hopeless. They occasionally advised Cleo to go to a psychiatrist or take a vacation to calm down. However, all of their suggestions and proposals were rejected outright. Now they could only pray their best for their arrogant masters.

Time quickly seemed to pass, without feeling it had been half a month since Sherina and Violet had gotten in touch. The times they passed by were not in vain, now they were both getting closer and closer. Often make appointments, shop together or share complaints. This made Sherina happy. Because this was the first time he had a friend who could understand at once a frequency with him.
Today Violet specifically came to Dream Glow Cosmetics office to meet Sherina at lunchtime. As usual these two women chatted casually full of laughter. However, in the midst of the pleasure there was suddenly someone knocking on the door of the room loudly.
"Mr Director!" he shouted in a voice that sounded panicked.
"Yes, comein!" answer Sherina.
Then enter Ruby who is his secretary. However, his condition is not good. His face was pale, I don't know what kind of bad news he was carrying.
"S-I received word that Mr. Panji had an accident!"
"W-what?! Dad's accident?!" Sherina flabbergasted.
