Chapter 108 - Find The Evidence
In the afternoon, Shandra and Vira have come home. Luna was lonely again. Even though she just kept arguing with her sister earlier, she felt lonely after being left home. The woman got out of bed and was going to walk to the bathroom.
"Uh, why are still so stiff?" Luna grumbled as she walked, holding her belly which still didn't feel healthy.
Ceklek...
Ethan entered the room, the man looking languid in his untidy clothes. He immediately walked over to Luna who was going to the bathroom. Without prompting, he took the initiative to escort her.
"Let me take you."
"Why are your clothes messy, your hair tangled?" asked Luna as she walked over and glanced at Ethan.
"It's okay, I'm just tired and dizzy," Ethan replied with a dry look.
Arriving at the bathroom, he immediately left Luna alone and went back into the room to take off her clothes and change to wearing a towel at waist level.
While waiting for Luna, Ethan shaved his thick beard. He looked at his reflection in the mirror and felt sad. usually, his wife sits in that dressing table chair and he hugs her from behind. The memory made her feel homesick for the intimacy that was used to exist.
Finally, Ethan canceled shaving his beard and allowed the foam to still fill his jaw. he immediately walked to the bathroom waiting for Luna at the door.
Ceklek...
Luna came out wearing only a bathrobe. She glanced at Ethan's jaw, which was still filled with foam. Instantly Luna smiled and was annoyed. Even though she was feeling hatred, she could not hide her love and anxiety for her sweet husband.
"You're going to shave, why are you here?" asked Luna.
"I couldn't shave it myself because I kept getting restless in front of your dresser," Ethan replied.
"Why?" asked Luna again.
"I keep seeing your reflection there," Ethan replied sadly.
Luna sighed and then pulled Ethan into the bathroom. She positioned her husband in front of the bathroom mirror and took the razor.
She carefully shaved Ethan's beard. although she felt resentful about him, she felt like paying attention to him. A handsome face that was smeared with sadness made her pity and wanted to help him shave the beard.
Ethan looked down intensely at Luna's natural face which he had not touched for almost two days. He missed, he missed the sweet lips that usually become his menu every night.
Luna continues to shave Ethan while wondering if he's really cheating or just being slandered. Looking closely at him with a sad face seemed to make her hurt too. The pregnant woman missed the handsome face of her husband who usually smiles at her, but she also couldn't get rid of the image of her husband's intimate photo with the girl.
"Are you going to continue like this?" Ethan asked very quietly.
"I don't know," replied Luna, still focused on shaving until there was only a little more to be done.
"I miss these lips." Ethan touched Luna's lips with his firm fingers. Slowly he pushed Luna's hand away, who was shaving his beard. slowly, he brought his face closer to his wife's face and gently kissed the pink lips that had not touched since yesterday.
Luna, who longed for intimacy, reflexively returned the kiss gently for a few moments while groping Ethan's broad chest. Her eyes were closed to let go of the longing, but the image of her husband carrying another girl came back to her mind.
Luna immediately ended Ethan's kiss and left him alone in the bathroom. She sat on the bed and cried.
"Why can't I get rid of the image? I'm tired at this condition." Luna cursed herself for not being able to get over her problem. She cried while hugging her pillow.
Ethan immediately got out of the bathroom and walked over to Luna, who was still crying. he immediately sat on the edge of the bed right next to his wife. The man looked sadly at the wife who was crying, he did not like sadness. That, he missed her sweet smile and kind attitude.
"Why are you crying again?" Ethan asked.
"Sorry, Ethan. I can't take you anymore. That girl's image always bothered me, "replied Luna, who was still sobbing. ugh, she must have been in torment mind.
"What should I do, honey? Tell me! Should I sleep outside again so you don't keep crying because you hate seeing me?" Ethan asked angrily.
"I don't know, Ethan. I'm also tired of this condition. I want to go back to how it used to be but that girl's image is messing things up. I want to forget but I can't!" Luna continues to cry. She remembered her sister's advice to stay respectful of Ethan. but she really couldn't because she was always imagined by Edward's engineering misunderstanding.
Ethan sighed, then pulled Luna into his arms. "I promise. I will soon prove who the girl is, don't cry anymore," he said.
luna nodded then released Ethan's hug and walked over to the cupboard. She immediately took the loosest negligee then put it on. After that, he returned to bed and lay down.
"You'd better take a quick shower," she cried, looking at Ethan, who was still sitting on the edge of the bed.
"Don't cry anymore," Ethan ordered.
Luna just nodded in response, then moved to change her back to Ethan. She was reluctant to look back at her husband's face than to make her think of the photo again and cry.
Ethan immediately got out of bed and walked to the bathroom. After taking a shower, he immediately put on his clothes and left the room. He purposely didn't sleep with Luna so he wouldn't make her cry again. The man chose to relax on the living room sofa while watching TV.

Elsewhere, Sarah is walking down the fire escape of the office where she works. She had come to find evidence of Edward's crimes on purpose. The girl thought that maybe Viona had it in her workspace because Edward had never searched the room before.
Sarah uses a flashlight to light her way to Viona's workspace Because at that time the office was dark and there were no overtime employees. She walked without the slightest fear through the sleeping corridors of the majestic building.
"Hey !! who is it?"
There was a voice shouting. Sarah immediately turned and stopped her steps. She tried to be as calm as possible until the person who called her approached her.
"Sarah. Why are you going to the office this night?"
It turned out that the person was a security guard on patrol. Sarah breathed a sigh of relief and fell silent for an excuse.
"Eh, I came here because I wanted to get my phone that I left behind," Sarah said casually. Se thought that was the right reason.
"Oh." The security guard nodded in understanding then glanced around which was quite dark and quiet. "Do you need me to accompany you?" he asked.
"No need, sir. I dare." Sarah immediately answered...
"Yes, then excuse me."
The security guard immediately left, while Sarah continued her trip towards Viona's room.
when she arrived, Sarah immediately looked for a switch and turned on the light. She immediately checked every cupboard, drawer, and file rack in Viona's room.
"I'm sure she kept it here, but where?" muttered Sarah as she glanced around her. Her gaze was fixed on a cupboard that was not too close to the wall. She immediately went to the cupboard and looked behind it.
Sarah smiled on her lips when she saw that there was a black plastic bag behind the cupboard. She immediately took it and saw the contents.
"It's only here. It's stupid that Edward can't find it," Sarah muttered as she looked at the contents of the plastic bag. Yes, the contents are the clothes, hat, and mask Edward used when he damaged Ethan's car brake
