BEFORE 12PM

BIRTHDAY OF JULIEN'S II RESTAURANT

Not saying goodbye to Alex and Fritz. Nania immediately took her small bag over the living room sofa. Then he hurried away leaving behind Alex and Fritz who were engrossed in conversation.

Alex is astonished by the change in attitude from Nania. It immediately followed Nania who ran out of the house.

Alex meets Nania, who is outside the gates of Fritz's house. Nania tried to book a taxi online on her phone. He wants to get home from Fritz's house, where Thomas continues to terrorize Nania.

"Why are you?" Ask Alex.

"I have to go home Alex." Nania answered with fear.

"Yes, but why is it suddenly like this?" Alex asked confusedly.

"I have to go home!" Nania remained with a frightened face and was a little nervous.

Alex saw something strange. He calms Nania down. Alex held onto Nania's face, then stared intently at Nania's. With a gentle tone, Alex tried to why Nania was scared like that.

"What's wrong?" Ask Alex.

Nania is confused to answer questions from Alex. Eventually he was forced to lie to make Alex unsuspecting him.

"Friends me Alex. She's...." Answer Nania hanging.

"He why?"

"He slipped in the bathroom. I need to check it out right away in his apartment." Answer Nania.

"So you rush like that, because your friend was hit by a disaster. Okay, so I'll take you there." Take Alex.

"Not to Alex. I can do it myself. I'll book a taxi online. You continue to talk to your friends." Decline Nania.

"No! I'm not gonna let you go alone. I'll keep you company." Resolute Alex.

"But Alex..." Nania tried.

Alex's index finger sway is a sign that Nania can't do any more lobbying. He must leave with Alex for Aurille's apartment.

Nania is asked to wait for Alex to pick up her car in Fritz's yard. At once Alex wanted to say goodbye to Fritz, because he had not said goodbye to Fritz and his family.

Not long after, Alex returned in his car. He honks his car, asking Nania to get in his car.

In the car Nania starts contacting Aurille. He repeatedly sent messages to Aurille. But the number is off. Until fear began to catch on. Where she's afraid of being caught lying to Alex.

"You why Nan?" Ask Alex.

"What the hell." Nania was doubtful.

"But your face looks like such a confused person." Said Alex.

"I just called my friend again, but he's not active." Answer Nania.

"We went straight to his apartment. Let's know his condition." Said Alex.

Nania was silent with a panicked face.

"Which apartment is it?" Ask Alex.

Nania was surprised by Alex's question. He could not show Aurille's apartment with Aurille's condition that was difficult to contact. But he had to say especially. Because he hasn't made contact with Aurille.

Nania finally chooses to lie to Alex. He said his friend had been taken to the hospital. So that Nania's anxiety slowly disappeared.

Alex seems suspicious, but Nania tries to convince Alex with her sweet words. Until Alex finally really believes in the words of Nania about her friend.

Alex doesn't want to waste time with Nania just to meet her friends. More than that, he wanted to invite Nania to shop. Of course to look dashing and handsome at the birthday restaurant later. Given Alex himself has a stake there that was inherited by his father before.

Nania can't refuse Alex's invitation. Because Beatrice has said that Nania is allowed to go with Alex. Beatrice will guard Romeo as long as Nania is not home.

Returning to her subscription boutique, Alex asks for a special dress for Nania. So is a suit that is certainly special to Alex. So that both can be on stage with the series.

The long red dress became Nania's choice among other dresses offered to her. Seeing Nania choose a red dress, Alex also chose a red suit like the color Nania chose.

Alex imagines how much she feels about Nania in attending a restaurant's birthday. Nania will be beautiful with the dress. Likewise with Alex who will appear dashing in a suit in color matching with Nania.

The smile Alex makes when imagining herself with Nania. It was a question for Nania. Alex smiles without knowing what caused it.

Alex was immediately embarrassed as soon as Nania asked why she was smiling like that. Alex is confused to answer Nania's question. Until he tries to make everything okay.

Choose clothes to wear tomorrow. Alex seems to have been very enthusiastic to try out the suit he bought. Of course with the dress that Nania was wearing as well.

Alex finally thought of a photo studio. Where he wants to capture the moment with Nania as a beautiful moment. Before the dress was worn for the anniversary of the restaurant. Alex wanted to capture it first as a memorable photo album in his life.

Nania just followed all the requests from Alex. Alex is so dominant. Until Nania has no room to refuse requests from the diverse Alex.

Money makes it easy for Alex to get everything. No need to wait, Alex and Nania will get a super fancy photo album from a professional photographer.

10 Minutes to change, while the remaining 20 minutes are used to apply makeup each to look more attractive on camera. Happiness cannot be hidden by Alex. She smiled and kept smiling staring at every patch of makeup that wrapped Nania's pretty face.

Everything ready. Nania is graceful with the red dress she wears. While Alex is dashing in a red suit that looks solid with a suit belonging to Alex. Both are like a couple who will undergo a prewedding photo.

With the help of the photographer and his assistant. Nania and Alex got every lead in style in front of the camera lens. Both have no problem showing each style. Although a little kagok, but Nania tried to make the shooting atmosphere melt. Until the results obtained become even better.

Dozens of photos have been obtained. Nania and Alex were allowed to see the images from both shots.

Both Nania, and Alex were very satisfied with their second photo. Where there is no photo that looks not good. Everything was beautiful and as expected of Alex.

All the photos Alex save on social media that directly sent to all his social media friends. Just a few seconds in the post, the photo immediately stopped the social media universe. Everyone thought Alex and Nania were pre-wed.

Many prayers were flowing on Alex's social media. It also sounded to Julien's ears. He who was curious immediately saw all the photo collection on Alex's social media. Where with his own eyes, Alex saw his second wife making out with his own sister.

It was like a glass falling from a height. Where the crack feels painful, destroying the entirety of the existing part. He was broken to pieces. Watching Nania's affection with Alex.

Beatrice just smiled at what happened to Alex and Nania. He feels like winning and winning. Seeing her inner husband tormented with jealousy of Alex.

Julien's instantly cold to Nania. He ignores Nania as soon as she arrives home with Alex. There was no smile, other than the anger he seemed to hold in his heart. Alex's cold demeanor made Nania ask, considering what she did with Alex was just an ordinary photo. But in Julien's point of view that burned the flames of jealousy.

At nightfall, Julien's is leaving earlier than any other family member. Been at the birthday party. He in a blue suit looks handsome. Julien's making sure everything goes according to what he wants. A lavish and magnificent restaurant birthday party.

In the room, Nania has chosen a blue dress from Julien's gift. But she was forced to replace the dress she was wearing with a dress belonging to Alex. Alex asks Nania very much to Nania to wear the dress she gave him.

Pomegranates are heavy, but Nania finally follows Alex's request. She ended up choosing a matching colored dress with Alex compared to the gown from Julien's gift that was no less beautiful and luxurious.

Maybe Julien's gonna understand. So there's no thought in Nania that's gonna make Julien's mad at her.

One by one the restaurant staff and office staff came to crowd the event building. They began to enjoy every surprise presented by Julien's as the owner of the restaurant owner company. They were also made like kings who got a special banquet from Julien's. Including Thomas who was wearing casual clothes with a black hat.

The arrival of the second quarter of Julien's family is filled with Beatrice with her three children. With Roberto as Beatrice's personal driver, he was Beatrice's assistant. Although the night breeze will make the health condition a little problematic, but for the sake of celebrating the happiness of Julien's family restaurant. Beatrice tries to fight the taste that will make her sick.

The third Kloter followed Alex who remained with Nania who was beside him. Before leaving for the building which is a place of birthday celebration. Alex took his car to his mother's house. He wanted to take his mother with him.

No need to wait long, Alex's mom with super cute makeup. Ready to go with Alex. As soon as Alex parked his car in front of the gate. His mother approached Alex's car and got into Alex's car.

His mother greeted Alex with such sweetness. But that friendly greeting suddenly turned into rage, as soon as he saw Nania being beside Alex. His anger exploded immediately.

"What is this cheap girl in your car?" Ask mother.

"Come ma'am. Don't keep bringing up Nania's past. That was then, not today." Answer Alex wailing.

"Alex whose name is female is not true, until anytime it will be a woman is not true. So you have to be careful with her." Amuk.

Alex did not answer his mother. He only showed a disappointed look at his mother's humiliation of Nania.

"Mom don't want a car with this woman!" Her mother firmly pointed at Nania.

Alex quiet.

"Ok if you don't want to comply with mother's request. Let me get you out of this car." Threaten mom.

Alex remained silent. He didn't care about the threat from his mother.

As if he didn't get a good response from his own son. Alex's mother got out of Alex's car. Exit while maintaining the curse on Nania. Don't forget the push on Alex's car door. This added to the disappointment of his mother.

Seeing Alex fight with her own mother. Nania feels bad. He tries to persuade Alex to melt his ego. Even Nania is willing to not have a car with Alex and her mother, if indeed her mother does not want Nania there.

But Alex has decided to vote for Nania. He is mature, so he has the right to choose what is best for him. Alex forbids Nania from disembarking, as Alex is about to drive his car to the showhouse.

Nania was not calm. Remembering Alex had a fight with her mother because of her. So there is a feeling of guilt in Nania about the quarrel that occurred between Alex and his mother.

Nania's guilt remains, even though the festive atmosphere has begun to appear from outside the building will be a restaurant's birthday. Nania kept thinking about the sad feelings that her mother Alex was experiencing. Nania asked if her mother had arrived. But Alex just told Nania not to worry about her mother, because her mother would be fine. He also has a reliable driver. So Nania doesn't have to worry about her mother.

Alex takes Nania to a VIP seat given to Julien's extended family, including Alex. Besides Nania has lined up other Julien's family such as Beatrice and her three children. Nor is the important person in Julien's company who has been credited with making Julien's restaurant grow and develop as it is today.

Didn't see Julien's lined with VIP seats. It seems that Julien's is trying to ease his mother's emotions, which is still upset with Alex, who prefers Nania, rather than her own mother.

So much his emotions. New Julien's invites his mother to sit in a VIP seat with a large family and company officials. Although Julien's can't be sure his mother won't come back angry at Nania.

Her mother was so angry, seeing Nania casually in the VIP seat. He wanted to be angry, but it was certainly unethical for now. Given that there's a big event going on. If he made a fuss, his good name all along would be smeared just like that.

Unlike her angry mother, because Nania is in the VIP seat with Alex. Julien's angry, because Nania prefers a gift shirt from Alex. Compared to the dress she gave me. Julien's so disappointed in Nania. But he could only endure his disappointment. He remains professional by sitting next to Alex.

The event began, where it was immediately entertained by a famous singer from Nice. He sings so well. But it feels hollow in Julien's heart right now. Where he saw his wife close to his own younger brother.

The next event was a welcome from Julien's as the largest owner of shares in his company. He expressed his gratitude to all the staff who have helped his company grow into what it is today. But his eyes could not turn to look at Nania.
