Trapped in Chain Love
Problem stack.

...To relieve his emotions usually madam Julia did something. One of them is pampering his beloved 'son-in-law' by going on vacation and shopping whatever Fiona wants—had him it is the right way to relieve emotions....

...————...

After that incident Elise lived her day as usual. Once he asked Lucas, what happened to Julia's madam? But the answer from Lucas was just a small smile and the saying "He's okay." Receiving such an answer made Elise unwell.

'It looks like Lucas didn't want to tell you what really happened back then'

There is no way that Madam Julia is fine after evaporating her emotions, maybe the relationship between mother and child becomes tenuous because of the dispute between Elise and Madam Julia.

In addition to asking Lucas, Elise also asked Noise something as they chatted on the balcony as usual. Elise asks about Noise's next decision—is she going to be a violinist and struggling in music or do what madam Julia wants? Noise's answer is the first.

"Mom may not agree with my dream, but Dad supported me after I ventured to tell him my wish. Dad said if I wanted to I could move to another university and focus on music but I'm still considering that"

Apparently Noise's father had an open mind, in contrast to Julia's madam who seemed demanding.

Hearing the word 'Father' made Elise think about the other problem she had. His father, Gio, he still hasn't contacted Elise though.

No matter how often he sent messages and phone calls, or money transfers into his account but Gio did not reply to any messages from him. Elise wanted to make sure of her father's situation and go to Boston, but she was too busy at the company at the moment to take the time to go home for a moment.

"Haaa— life is hard huh."

Elise complained. He was currently leaning back in his study chair after finishing half of the work he had. Nicolas goes to a meeting with Julian, while Fiona is somewhere because she hasn't seen him anywhere since this morning.

'Maybe he's taking a leisurely walk with Julia's madam and being pampered'

To relieve his emotions usually madam Julia did something. One of them is pampering his favorite 'son-in-law' by going on vacation and shopping whatever Fiona wants—had him it is the right way to relieve emotions.

Elise must have made him very angry for offending Julia's madam. Every time they paced the house, madam Julia always prepared as if she had not seen Elise and left just like that.

At first Elise was uncomfortable, but over time she adjusted herself and acted the way Julia wanted to. Lucas and Noise still treat Elise as usual, only Julia's madam is like that.

While Elise was still thinking about her problem at the Eldegar family home, the device she had vibrated—the sign of an incoming call.

His best friend's number is plastered on the screen. She had not received a phone call from him for a long time, so when she answered the phone, Elise was happy.

"Hana! Why are you calling me now?"

Elise's voice was so carefree as if her tangled mind had simply disappeared after hearing her best friend's voice.

"I'm sorry. It's so hard to take the time while filming, you know I'm taking on a new movie again right now" Hana explained a bit of the situation.

Hana Wood, her best friend is a rising film actor. His busyness with the world of film makes it difficult for him to relate to Elise, therefore he can only update it now.

Elise. After all, he was also busy with his work so they were both immersed in each other's lives.

"Congrats for your movie. I'll make sure to watch it later,"

Hana laughed at the end of there, she was flattered because her best friend wanted to take the time to watch the movie she played.

"I'm just an antagonist you know, there won't be much praise I receive."

"No problem. Then I'll give you credit for persecuting the protagonist so well,"

Pfttt!!

They were laughing together. This is how they exchange greetings, there are always jokes and laughter in every conversation. On the other end of the day, Hana tries to stop laughing, she has to tell her business with Elise before her break time runs out.

"There's something I want to say about your father"

The atmosphere somehow turned around so quickly. Elise immediately flinched as Hana mentioned about her father.

"What's wrong with dad?"

His words were full of worries. Before Elise thought over Hana immediately continued her words.

There was a sense of relief in his heart when he knew his father was fine. Elise thought Gio was having a hard time after the company she built went bankrupt, but she was grateful her father could handle it well.

"Dad never used the money I gave him, I think he already threw me away after breaking off my engagement to Julian"

Only Gio's family does Elise have. Although she does not have a gentle nature but Elise knows the father loves her, if Gio turns away and moves away from her— it will make her hurt.

"By the way, how's your condition there? How did the mission 'destroy the Eldi group' from the inside go like you said back then?" Hana. He deliberately emphasized the word "destroying" with a contrived voice.

Hana's words successfully touched Elise's heart. Maybe he used to make a rapport to destroy the company Eldi group from within easily, he did not think about the consequences if he really did that.

"Destroying the company Eldi Group from the inside, huh? That's my goal"

Elise paused her speech for a moment. Fortunately there was no one in her room, if only someone else heard Elise's words maybe she would be in trouble.

"Handering. I was just bluffing so dad wouldn't make the engagement back then, but it turns out he's still doing it"

Hana laughed again. Already he guessed from Elise— his nature is unlikely to make it bear to destroy the company that houses many people in it, he said, he certainly didn't do that out of concern for the plight of innocent employees who would lose their jobs if he really screwed up the company.

Although only a branch, but the company that Julian manages has many employees.

"I was expecting it. My worries feel useless, even though with the intelligence you have you can reap profits from there, right?"

"Yes, then I'm gonna go to jail for manipulating big corporate accountants"

Hana laughed again. Tired because his work seemed lost just by chatting with Elise. Her best friend was always able to comfort her, she was grateful to have Elise.

"Hahaha, you're right. Don't do that, I don't mind having a prisoner's friend but thinking of you in so much trouble making me sick" He paused his words for a moment "Hei Lise"

"Yes?"

"Are you okay there?"

Elise silences. His eyes stared ahead, watching the wall clock that indicated the break would be up in three minutes. Therefore Elise answered quickly the question from Hana, with a thin smile that Hana could not see from there.

"Yes, I'm fine."

Who here who if asked the situation always answered well even though there are many problems like Elise?

Me, me, me, I〈(2)- - Me

Though Hana is ready to listen if Elise confides, but she does not want to burden her friend who is busy with the problems she has. Hadeh—

Not many you know friends who want to be horrified to confide in without judgment, usually people who are reluctant to vent because they are always judged or even fighting fate when all they need is just a listener:((

Always happy, friends.
