"You will never like the people who will come to this party later." Hans sighed.
Lana just looked at him and shrugged her shoulders. "In that case, I'll just be in the kitchen the whole time or will just help to serve."
Hans looks angry. "You're a guest and not a waiter!"
"Don't be silly. I don't have a pretty dress for Joy's party. I'll just be embarrassing and look pathetic."
Hans put down his coffee cup harshly. " Why did you come here in the first place?" tanyakanya.
"Sasha asked me to come over and I can't turn her down!" sahut Lana as is.
Hans got up and went outside without saying anything more. Lana will regret this visit. Hans was very sorry that his sister had forced Lana to come here.
A few moments have passed. Hans had already picked up Joy and lifted her suitcases into the other guest's bedroom, opposite Lana's room. Joy, with her fiery red hair, slim body and coming from a wealthy family that was well worth Alexander's family, was well-suited for having her inherited possessions and family similarities to the Alexander family.
Joy looks at Lana with one eye, she is reluctant to talk to Lana and only spends time talking to Hans and Sasha. Fortunately, there are quite a number of other people who are willing to talk to Lana, such as a wealthy elderly couple when viewed from the diamond worn by the old woman.
After lunch, Joy asks Hans to drive her downtown. At that moment, Lana used the opportunity to run away and hide herself inside the kitchen.
Lana had already replaced her loose-fitting shirt with a black dress that the girl had bought at a local department store and her high heels were not so high. But Lana still wore an apron that covered her dress because she had to warm and prepare dishes and wash dishes and crystal glasses so as not to run out.
It was almost ten o'clock in the evening when he was finally able to join Sasha and his friends. But by that time, Sasha had already stuck like a postage stamp to Joy, with Hans near them. So Lana couldn't get close to them at all.
Lana finally decides to stand alone in the corner and hopes that Chris does not run away and leave himself alone. At least he would have someone to accompany him. But that doesn't happen, Chris chooses to run away instead of having to meet with Joy. Lana began to move on and joined an elderly couple who had talked to her during lunch until finally the elderly was talking about her luxury vacation in Paris with friends who were both familiar, and the elderly, so Lana was completely unable to follow the direction of their conversation.
He tried to move into another crowd, but again, he could not follow the direction of their conversation about investments, living allowances and others. Hans notices Lana moving from place to place, with blood boiling with rage, that Lana is almost alone all night. He starts to stand up and tries to move as Joy moves closer and grips her shirt as Sasha talks about her new collection and offers to show it to Joy tomorrow morning. Joy is very possessive. They did not have a lover-like relationship, as Hans used to have with other women before. Maybe that's why Joy was reluctant to let Hans off the hook. Joy also hates it when other women look at Hans. His possessive attitude was exhausting.
Joy is beautiful and self-intelligent but the woman has a behavior that Hans dislikes and Joy is also very rude to Hans' co-workers while they are gathering outside work hours.
Meanwhile, Lana finds a bottle of champagne. Lana had never tried to drink alcohol before but she felt very sidelined tonight, her heart was very sick and she was very sad. Lana really likes to see the bubbles, and the smell of flowers that are smelled in the expensive drink. So Lana had already chugged out a few glasses in a row and immediately, the woman did not mind at all if the guests there were not aware of her existence. He also does not mind at all if the guests there only treat the tub of servants during the party.
Lana realized that she had been drinking too much when her head hit the door leaf as she walked towards the door. Lana giggles slowly. Her beautiful hair immediately detached from the loop that featured her tie neck. But Lana didn't care about it at all. He took off the hairpin that had been holding his hair all this time and shook his head so that his hair would be perfectly free to his shoulders.
Lana's actions attracted a man who had looked at her several times nearby. A racer who dragged his wife to a boring party like this. The man looked at Lana from top to bottom and thought that this girl was very attractive and different from the people who were here. It looks just like the dress Lana wore tonight. But this man did not care about the cheap dress that Lana was wearing.
The man approached and leaned against the door leaf that Lana had smashed into earlier.
"You hurt? Are you all right?" ask the man in a friendly tone that has a slight accent.
"My head is hard. Who're you?" ask Lana while giggling.
"Rafael" said the man in his deep voice and sounded sexy. He raises his glass, indicating that he wants to toast Lana. "You're the first person tonight to ask me my name. You know, I'm a stranger." He looked down so that his eyes were aligned with Lana's.
"really?"
The man was fascinated by Lana's innocence until he laughed freely for the first time in the whole day. "I'm from Spain. Can't you hear my accent when I speak?"
"I can't speak any foreign language at all. I don't understand high finance, I don't read popular novels or follow the latest movies and I've never been abroad. So I guess I'll just sit in the kitchen." Lana confessed in a sad tone so the girl took another sip of her champagne.
Rafael laughed again. "In that case, may I join you?"
Lana looked at the man's finger. There is no ring. Rafael, who was aware of Lana's gaze, immediately took out the ring he had hidden in one of his pants pockets and swung it in front of Lana's eyes.
"We don't indulge in our relationships at parties. That's my wife." said Rafael, pointing to a very beautiful and glamorous woman. Very beautiful woman, blonde and wearing a tight dress in bright red. The woman was leaning next to another handsome man.
"She's beautiful." said Lana.
"It belongs to everyone. The man beside her was a rising movie star at the moment. The man was poor and my wife was rich. So all this time my wife's been financing the man until he gets to the current point" Rafael said coldly and cynically.
Lana's eyeballs almost jumped out of her eye sockets in shock at Rafael's explanation.
Rafael shakes. "You don't like to joke around, do you? I had a free marriage. He did whatever he wanted and so did I." the man asked mused.
"You don't love him?" ask Lana curiously.
"You think people marry for love?" rafael asked with a sigh. "You're totally innocent. I married her because of her rich father. His father's the one who paid me to be a racer."
"You're that racer. Joy said you'd come!" peekik Lana slow.
"Joy." Rafael's lips curled in disdain and he looked across the room at the pair of gray eyes that were glaring coldly and angrily over Joy Callista's head. "He was entertainment last year. He was eager to be seen in Monaco." he said.
Lana was surprised because the man did not try to hide his secret at all. Lana becomes wondering if Hans knows about this or not. Does that guy care? Lana thought, Hans would never bother asking about her boyfriend's past because the man was being drunk on romance with Joy. Lana's forehead wrinkled sadly as she realized that there would be no chance for her at all to be together with Hans.
Lana looked back. Joy had already turned the other way but Hans walked quickly across the room towards them.
