Chapter 106 - Uncomfortable
At breakfast, Ethan took the initiative to bring breakfast to Luna. He prepares chicken soup and also makes chocolate-flavored milk.
"Honey, have breakfast first," Ethan exclaimed as he sat on the edge of the bed right beside Luna.
"I thought you had already left," said Luna with a flat gaze.
Ethan sighed, feeling unwelcome in the room. He immediately got out of bed and said goodbye to go to the office.
"I leave."
Luna nodded and let Ethan go without giving her the usual kiss. The man looked disappointed, but the wife still felt resentment. The atmosphere that morning was not as beautiful as usual.
Ethan exited the room down the stairs feeling uneasy as he put on his tie. usually, Luna wore a tie and always gave an affectionate hug, kissing her fragrant tuxedo before leaving.
"I miss my sweet and spoiled wife," he thought. Oh God, poor Ethan.
Ethan's gaze diverted to Ira, who was wiping the table in the living room. He immediately went to her.
"Ira, you must to always oversee Luna, don't let her come down alone," he said.
"Yes sir." ira nodded obediently, then resumed her activities of wiping the decorative furniture. Meanwhile, Ethan immediately walked out of the house and went to the office by asking Richard to drive the car, because he was tired and did not focus on driving.

Elsewhere, Viona enters her father's company building with Edward. She will invite her husband to meet his father to ask for the release of his company.
Viona could not understand how cunning Edward was planning to leave her after escaping from her father's restraint. and that evidence, maybe that evidence will disappear from hiding. Because Sarah is aggressively looking for and will steal it.
"Are you sure Daddy will agree?" asked Edward as he continued to walk side by side with Viona.
"Sure," Viona replied with a reassuring smile. "Because dad will always obey my wishes," she continued.
They both entered the elevator and accidentally along with Sarah who was going to her room which is close to Gibran's room.
Sarah smiled kindly at Edward and Viona. But Edward only responded with a flat look. the girl was annoyed, especially the man beside her was holding his wife's hand as if he did not understand how jealous she felt.
The three of them just kept quiet to each other until the elevator stopped on the floor in the purpose. Edward and Viona got out first, while Sarah followed closely behind.
'You hold hands with her and don't seem to care about me. We will see! I won't let you get away from me!' Sarah thought with a look full of hatred. She grumbled and immediately entered the room, while Edward and Viona entered Gibran's room.

"Daddy," said Viona as she entered the room.
"Hey, how are you, sweetheart?" Gibran rose from his chair and approached Viona, then glanced at Edward, who was smiling kindly at him.
"It's better, I'm not that nauseous anymore, Dad," Viona replied with a reassuring smile.
"Good, that means the future grandchildren of Daddy is not naughty." Gibran smiled with relief at the happy hue that was implied on Viona's face. Because whatever he does is just to make his daughter happy. ever since Edward married her, he was relieved and warned his son-in-law not to make his daughter sad.
The three of them immediately sat on the sofa. And start the conversation while waiting for the drink ordered from Office girl.
"I have another purpose with Edward to meet you, Dad." Viona starts the conversation.
"What do you want to say?" asked Gibran.
Viona glanced at Edward to tell what he wanted. Because it is more appropriate for a man. Maybe she will help convince her father to comply with her husband's wishes.
"Actually, I don't feel good if you keep sending excessive money to my company," Edward said awkwardly.
"So why? Wouldn't that make your company even more developed?" asked Gibran.
"Yes, it is true. but I felt that I always had a debt to you, I felt that I was just a hitchhiker and did not have freedom over my own, "said Edward.
"He just wants to be independent, Dad," said Viona.
"Then what do you want, Edward?" asked Gibran investigating.
"I just want you to stop injecting funds into my company. I want to get up on my own with my hard work," Edward replied.
"Are you sure you won't go broke again after letting go of me?" asked Gibran again, then leaned back on the sofa. "After releasing, I will not help you anymore if you go down or go bankrupt," he continued.
Viona only didn't flinch to glance at Edward she wasn't sure of her husband's abilities. Because of his lazy and careless attitude, he could bankrupt again. but she let her husband do what he wants, if he goes bankrupt she can still force her father to help, even though now threatening not to help.
Edward flinched for a moment, then responded, "I'm sure, Dad."
"Let him, Dad. He has the right to choose his path," said Viona.

seen office girl came carrying a tray containing three glasses of tea, walked to the front desk of the sofa. She immediately put the tea on the table, then went back out.
"Okay, if that's what you want, Edward. The important thing is you never to hurt Viona after I let you go or you will pay the highest price, "said Gibran menacing
ly.
Viona glanced at Gibran with the chairman then responded, "Dad, don't be like that to my husband. I'm sure he won't hurt me, even he's been more concerned since I got pregnant."
Edward just flinched with annoyance. He hated his father-in-law who demeaned him with power. That made him want to leave Viona even more, regardless of whether she was pregnant or not.
"Daddy just warned him, sweetheart," Gibran smiled casually, then took the tea and gave it to Edward. "Don't get so tense, Edward."
Edward smiled stiffly, then took the tea and drank it little by little because it was still hot. Likewise, Viona immediately drank.

After eating soup and drinking milk, Luna leaned back in bed until ten in the morning. She felt bored because usually, she could just walk into the garden and water the flowers. Now she can only shut herself in the room. Because even if she moves too much, still feels pain.
"My Twins, You have to be strong, forgive mom for not being able to calm down and forgive your father," muttered Luna while feeling her distended stomach. She's still troubled by the thought of Sarah claiming to be Ethan's lover before marrying her.
remembering the girl crying and telling her about her husband buying her an apartment in Singapore so she could be alone as if it made Luna feel like she was nothing for Ethan.
Because she continued to be upset in her room, Luna decided to contact Vira. who knows her friend is not busy and wants to accompany her, just to hear her sicknesses.
Until recently, Luna was able to connect with Vira.
"Hello, Vira."
"Hello, Luna. It's not, as usual, you called me," said Vira sounding relaxed.
"Yes, I'm bored. can you come here today?" asked Luna.
"Maybe later in the afternoon," said Vira.
"I want to share a story with you, I need your advice and opinion," said Luna.
"All right, I'll be there as soon as possible after my job is finished," Vira replied, sounding relieved.
"Hem, I'll turn off the phone first."
"See you later."
Luna immediately disconnected her phone and returned to the back. She fiddled with her smartphone and looked at her photos with Ethan. "Quickly prove that you are only loyal to me and I am the only woman you care. I'm tired of these chaotic thoughts because that girl always imagines me," muttered Luna as she looked at the photo of Ethan with her in the room before making love two months ago.
