In keeping with Ethan and Baruna's promise. That afternoon Baruna headed to Ethan's office to meet him.
And as expected, all eyes stared at the presence of Avisa with her white husky who entered the company building owned by Mr. Christian - Papa Ethan.
Baruna is headed straight to the floor where Ethan's room is located because Ethan has told the security guard and receptionist to let him in with Snowy.
Baruna arrives in front of Ethan's room and knocks on the door.
Geck.. Geck.. Geck..
Baruna slowly opened the door of the room, seen Ethan sitting on his big chair immediately standing up to welcome Baruna.
"Let's go in" Ethan said.
Baruna walks in with Snowy.
"Sit down. Snowy sat on the couch. No problem" Ethan said to Snowy who was in the form of a Husky dog.
"I've come so what do you want to plan?" Ask Baruna without a stale ado.
Ethan goes to his desk and gets some files to show Baruna.
"What's this?" Baruna asked looking at some sketches of the building on the paper.
"That's my new showroom building plan. Do you still have vacant land assets or a spacious shophouse? Maybe we can start from that to make it seem real if we work together" Ethan explained.
"Showroom?" Ask Baruna wonder.
"Yes. I have my own business. This company belongs to my Papa. While I developed my own showroom and workshop. If you have vacant land or an empty shophouse, you might be able to rent it to me. But later I'll say we work together to open a new branch, not rent your land" Ethan said.
Ethan is planning to lease Baruna's land. He will not use the land for free. Whereas in the public only camouflage says Baruna cooperates and let his land in the showroom build.
"You sure? Doesn't that hurt you?" Ask Baruna wonder.
"It doesn't matter to me" replied Ethan smiling.
"But that's a problem for me" said Baruna, to Ethan's surprise.
Baruna is not the typical one who will receive that kindness for free.
"Use the land I have in town B. No need to pay rent. Assume I'm working with you and that's in return for your help to destroy Frans" Baruna said.
"No. I don't have to" Ethan said.
"Do it or not at all?" Ask Baruna.
Ethan was surprised to hear Baruna say.
"Maybe all humans would love to be helped as you do. But I'm different. I'm not human. I am half another creature. And for us we cannot accept help for free. I don't want to owe you anything" Baruna said firmly.
Ethan finally understood. A creature like them cannot receive kindness without repaying kindness.
"Sorry I offended you. I don't mean it that way" Ethan explained.
"Yes. If you understand then just do it. I'll send you a lolation of vacant land that still exists. You set it up yourself" said Baruna casually.
"Yes I understand. Have you had lunch?" Ask Ethan.
"Not yet" answered Baruna briefly.
"Would you eat together?" Ask Ethan.
"Didn't you see Snowy with me?" Baruna asked coldly.
"What if I just deliver food to this room. Snowy's free to eat in this room" Ethan said.
"Yes already. Whatever" said Baruna.
Ethan immediately calls his assistant to order a lunch of wagyu meat at a famous steakhouse. Snowy's favorite menu. Also do not forget he asked to buy salad and favorite fruit Baruna.
About 40 minutes later his assistant came into the room with Ethan's order.
"Thank you" Ethan said to his assistant.
"Good Young Master. Excuse me" said the assistant and left Ethan's room.
Ethan opens the food one by one and hurts her on the table.
"Let's eat. Ah I lock the door first. Snowy please act as comfortable as you. This room cannot be peeped from the outside nor is there CCTV" Ethan said.
He was sure Snowy would be more human to taste the existing lunch.
It didn't take long, Snowy immediately changed into a human being.
"Well, you know big brother-in-law" Snowy said deliberately.
"Sister-in-law?" Ask Ethan in wonder.
"You and Baruna are getting married. Then I should be prepared to call you brother-in-law" Ledek Snowy.
Baruna stared intently at Snowy, a sign she did not like Snowy's words.
"Don't let me kick you back into the sky!" Baruna's assertion to Snowy.
"Ah. I want dong! So if I get angry with the king of the sky, I just say that Baruna kicked me back in the sky" Snowy said in a mocking tone.
"Damn it!" Baruna said annoyedly.
Ethan just smiles and doesn't want to ikuit commenting. If one speaks wrongly, Baruna will be angry.
"Let's get eaten before the steak cools" Ethan mediates Baruna and Snowy's conversation.
They enjoyed the lunch well. Afterwards Ethan made coffee with a coffee machine available in the room.
"Do you want some coffee, Snowy?" Ethan asks Snowy, who is still human.
"May" replied Snowy.
Ethan immediately serves three separate cups of coffee with the sugar.
"When's Frans' show you said that?" Ask Baruna.
"Next week there will be a small event. You wanna come?" Ethan asked while looking at Baruna.
"certain. I need to get closer to her" Baruna said with a smrik smile.
"You if you're close to him. Are you going to date her?" Ethan asked in a heavy tone of voice.
"No. I just wanted to get close to her to make her curious and lose focus. He will lose focus if tempted by the figure of a woman who makes him curious" said Baruna who understands the vices of Frans since he was made a slave.
"alright. So let me make him feel uneasy too because I will definitely prevent him from getting too close to you" Ethan said honestly.
Not just out of fear of something bad Frans did. But also of course because Ethan is not willing to be jealous of it.
"Please" said the cuckooed Baruna.
They enjoy coffee while talking. Ethan's phone rings. He looked at the name and picked up the phone.
"Hello"
"... "
"Good Aunt calm down first. I'll be right there"
"... "
"Good Aunt. I'm closing this call, yeah"
Ethan then hung up on me.
Baruna and Snowy stare in surprise at the somewhat pale Ethan after receiving the phone call.
"lapt... Your papa's in the hospital" Ethan said hesitantly.
Baruna's eyes were round in surprise. His face immediately turned panicked.
"Don't panic. We'll be in the hospital soon. Come on" Ethan said to Baruna.
But Baruna did not flinch. Ethan was astonished and looked at her.
"Why?" Ask Ethan.
" I don't dare. I was afraid of getting out of control when I met them" Baruna said honestly.
"You're pretty much looking from afar. At least you should see the real situation" Ethan said, calming Baruna down.
Baruna was still frozen.
"believe it. I told you I'd protect you. I'll be your alarm if you let go of the act" Ethan said, making Baruna look at him deeply.
Baruna finally agreed to go to the hospital. He was worried about Papa's condition. Hope everything's okay.
They board a car between Ethan's drivers so Ethan and Baruna's panic doesn't wreak havoc on the road.
Snowy who had turned back into a husky dog looked at Baruna and spoke through the inner.
'Relax. Your papa must be fine, said Snowy.
Baruna looked at Snowy with a confused and worried look. Baruna was only able to sigh deeply.
