Ius walked back and forth in front of Enrica and Essie, the man looking pale after hearing the story from his lover. Confused what he should do right now with the little girl.
Between saving the career or the life of others, the two choices were struggling in his mind, even more so when remembering on one hand he had to keep the feelings of a lover, on the other he felt afraid of his boss.
Ius gritted his teeth to endure the boundless emotions within the chest.
"Darling, come with me for a while" Ius glanced over and smiled at Essie, trying to make the little girl comfortable to be there.
The man took Enrica into the Kitchen, his head slightly turned to make sure that with their distance at that time Essie should not hear what they were going to talk about.
"You've gone mad!!, , I can't possibly bring that little boy before the PresDir"
"Then where should I take her?" Enrica held her voice back from being heard by Essie.
"See, , take him to his father's place. Or wherever it comes from, don't be here! PresDir can kill me Enricaaaa" Ius clenched his hands together, venting all emotions there.
"But, you know what I said earlier, Raina was afraid that Essie would be an outlet for her disappointment" Enrica's words were interrupted, when she realized that Essie was out of place.
"When that little girl!!" Enrica ran towards the door.
His eyes looked into the courtyard, but he did not get it.
"Ius, , help me find it"
"Geez!!!, , why should I get into this!" the man rushed out chasing after Enrica.
They both ran to find Essie to get to the highway.
Enrica sighed as she gasped for breath after running away looking for Essie.
"Where did the boy go??, , the road was so fast"
Enrica glanced at Ius who had just arrived.
"It's all because of you!!, , if only you hadn't invited me and left Essie alone there. He's not going to go"
Enrica tried to walk down the sidewalk, followed by Ius from behind.
"It's a pity don't blame me constantly, with you bringing that little girl alone is already very stressful, , don't add to it by scolding me" Ius threw his gaze far ahead towards the highway, Ius, she caught a glimpse of David joking with Aileen in the car.
"Presby??" muttered.
♡♡♡
"Look your way, , watch it hit" Aileen grumbled because David always teased her while driving.
Aileen was surprised to see a child walking across without following the traffic signs.
"Davians!!" Aileen shouted shut her eyes with both hands.
His heart seemed to explode when David almost hit a passing child. Luckily David was able to hit the brakes quickly, so his car only nudged a small part of the child's body.
Hearing the sound of the car's brakes clanging so loud that it invited the attention of many people who were standing not far from them, Enrica and Ius immediately ran over.
His eyes were round when he saw his boss' car stop there, even more so when he walked closer and saw Essie lying on the highway.
"Essie??" Enrica shouted, then approached Essie.
David who had just got off the car was seen probing towards Enrica, he felt familiar with the woman and sure enough when he saw Ius also standing there, he just remembered that woman he met at the cinema.
"PresDir" Ius bowed his head to David. His face looked pale when he looked at the man.
"You know this little boy?" David looked at Ius question markingly.
Enrica is still trying to wake the unconscious Essie.
"David, , we need to get him to the hospital!" Aileen who had been on Essie's side spoke in a demanding tone. The woman looks very worried about Essie's condition.
The man simply lowered his head in compliance with Aileen's request.
♡♡♡
"Sorry president, I told Enrica to bring the little girl back to her real father, but she seemed to refuse" Ius tried hard to hold her fear firmly. The man in front of him was still silently silent without a word coming out of his mouth.
In another, Aileen is seen sitting on a chair while watching Essie lying on the bed.
"Darling, , can you hear my voice??" Aileen spoke softly. Swiping his forehead while tidying up the child's hair. Aileen then rubbed Essi's cheek trying to make a move for the little girl to respond, but it seems that Essie still does not want to wake herself.
The direction of his gaze moving slowly turned to Essie's hand which was tightly grasping a pendant.
Aileen moved her hand, slowly grabbing the pendant from Essie's hand. The locket was held tightly by the little girl, ever since Aileen saw Essie lying on the street.
Aileen opened it and saw a photo of David with another woman inside.
Her eyes widened, Aileen tried to calm down, she tried to control her feelings when the pain turned into a sore that spread throughout her chest.
His gaze was turned towards the door when David opened it from the outside.
"David??" he said softly, instantly their eyes met and stared at each other from a distance.
Aileen stood up, then walked over to David.
The man was glued when he saw Aileen in glass.
"Darling why??" David pulled her into the deck.
The perempuan buried his body into David's chest and then rebuked as eagerly.
"Ssssshhhh, ,Ai" David covered his cheeks, forcing the woman to raise her face. David felt worried as Aileen grew increasingly unable to control herself. The woman cried until the distress when she was about to breathe.
David led Aileem to walk towards the sofa.
"Ai, ," David said softly, wiping Aileen's tears with his thumb.
"Calm down!"
"What, she, , your daughter?" Ailene tried to speak in her tears she took pains to be able to neutralize her still rumbling feelings, she wanted to get angry but at least hearing that explanation would make her feel a little calm. He doesn't want to be the Aileen who left David the way he used to be.
His eyebrows fused together, the tip of his eyes conical towards Aileen.
"Where can you draw the conclusion that she's my daughter??" David spoke calmly.
Aileen slightly exasperatedly threw the pendant into her chest.
David opens up and sees a photo of himself with Raina in there. The man let out a long sigh, trying to calm himself down before explaining everything to Aileen.
"Listen to me dear" David grabbed Aileen's hands, taking her to be placed on her right cheek and left cheek. Then, he kissed his palms in turn.
"She's not my daughter, , I can prove it if you want it" Aileen felt very relieved, she said, like a kilo of weight that contained his heart burdened now arrived feel comfortable and calm even though just by hearing the answer from the mouth of David. When viewed from the look of the face and hair color, Aileen also did not find the resemblance of the little girl with David.
David started telling me what he had heard from Ius.
"I've thought things through, I'll take Essie to the orphanage. I'll have Ius take care of everything. For the cost later let in the company's responsibility, you don't mind if I use the company's money to help the boy?" David tucked the backs of his hands in turn.
"What are you talking about?" aileen's voice rang out because the rest of her cries, even her nose was still slightly blocked, could not be used to breathe properly.
"That's your company, 'you can do anything without my consent"
David pulled Aileen's arm to bring the woman into his arms. Then give a kiss at the end of the head.
"Whatever I have, everything has become yours" David tightened his embrace.
"I've never been in contact with a woman to that extent, , just you Ai" David momentarily fell silent, looking down to see her facial expression.
"Just you" David tried to find comfort when hugging Aileen tightly.
