Now Elara has shuffled out of bed, making Shane too tired to see her.
"Where are you going, honey?" Shane thought Elara was going back to the bathroom, but it turned out that the woman was galloping towards the door of the room, as if she was about to get out.
"I think in this Mansion there are many other rooms that I can occupy" answered Elara ambiguously, but Shane seemed to understand the meaning of his wife's words.
Shane hurriedly jumped up and confronted Elara before the woman actually left their room.
"Don't get in my way, Shane. I'm so pissed at you."
Shane stretched out his hand to prevent Elara from going further.
"Honey ..." shane said by installing her puppy eyes. The man looked like a kitten pleading.
Elara could not bear to see it, she hurriedly threw her gaze in the other direction.
"Do you have the heart to let me sleep alone tonight?" persuade Shane.
"Why not?"
Shane's eyes immediately rounded. He also looks to scratch the head that is not itchy.
"Let me sleep in the other room tonight, Shane. At least until my annoyance at you subsides a little," Elara said in negotiations.
"No." Shane shook his head strongly. "I'm sorry, I know where my mistake lies" he said with regret.
...***...
Although Elara had to sleep behind her, it was better than the woman sleeping in the other room. Shane had tried to persuade Elara at all costs but still his wife was furious with him.
Yes, he should have just answered when Megan asked who Elara was. But somehow his tongue seemed reluctant to answer the woman's question. Moreover, Shane actually wants to protect Elara from Megan's insanity if the woman knows that Elara is his wife.
Though Megan eventually learns Elara is Ryder's wife, Shane has no choice. After this he will keep Elara from the bar-baran Megan who can do anything.
What finally made Shane regret was the moment Elara told him a telling word.
"If the circumstances were reversed into an accidental encounter with an ex-lover of mine, then I wouldn't introduce you as my husband. Can you accept that?"
And Shane did not dare to say, because he could only answer in his heart. And if that really happened then, yes, she would also definitely be angry just like Elara was currently doing to him.
Therefore, Shane was very sorry why he had not been outspoken to Megan about the status of Elara. It's like he doesn't appreciate Elara and just as he doesn't think about Elara's feelings.
Regrets always come too late.
Until in the end, Shane had to be willing to sleep in a position like this, where Elara turned her back, even silenced her and it was enough to make her tormented. Though he was used to sleeping while hugging Elara while smelling the aroma of fruit that emanated from his female hair.
Shane glanced at Elara through the corner of her eye. Ah, somehow a sense of longing even attacked him. But if he touches Elara again, it is the same as him that will disturb his wife's sleep, because Elara will surely gasp and pull his arms from her.
"I'm sorry, Honey, don't be mad for too long." Shane whispered in Elara's ear. I don't know if she's really asleep or not, but obviously, Shane really feels really sorry right now. He hoped Elara would hear his sincere apology.

Elsewhere, Stevi also recently completed her outpatient at the Hospital. He chose to get out of the treatment room and if he found the right kidney donor, he would return to that place.
Kyle accompanies his cousin, as there is no one to take care of Stevi other than Kyle and Eve, Kyle's mother.
"You sure you're okay with getting out of the hospital?" Eve questioned her nephew with a worried look.
Eve also regrets the attitude of her sister-Gracia-who was none other than Stevi's mother. She was disappointed that Gracia ignored Stevi's illness, only to be angry about Stevi's child.
"It's okay, Aunty. Besides, I'll check regularly and will follow the doctor's advice to wash the blood as long as you haven't got a donor" said Stevi, who pushed Kyle in a wheelchair.
They leave the hospital corridor and Kyle helps carry Stevi to enter the car cabin.
"How's Maura doing, Aunty?" ask Stevi.
"Aunty deliberately didn't take him to the Hospital to come pick you up, for fear that Maura would be exposed to the disease here. When Aunty stayed, Maura was fine. She's at home with Giselle." Giselle is a housekeeper at Eve and Kyle's residence.
"Sorry for bothering you so much, Aunty."
"It's okay, the most important thing now is your recovery. Maura needs you so much." Eve stroked Stevi's hair gently.
Stevi smiled softly. He doesn't know what to repay Kyle and his mother for.
"For a while, stay here first. I won't be calm if you and Maura choose to stay in the Apartment on their own" said Kyle, who had a bag containing Stevi's belongings from the hospital on a desk inside his residence.
"Hmm. thank Kyle."
Kyle feels that Stevi is still his responsibility because they are family.
Late in the afternoon, Kyle sees a dreamy Stevi on the porch of the house. Kyle approached her. Maybe this is the right time for her to ask Stevi.
"Stev ..."
The woman looked over and found her cousin behind her. The tall man seemed to want to talk about something.
"What's up, Kyle?"
"I'm sorry if this would offend you." Kyle started his words. "If I may know, who is Maura's real father?" tanyanya.
Stevi was silent with a straight forward look.
"I. .. don't know," Stevi finally replied. His voice sounded soft.
"You don't remember who you were with last time?" Kyle asks this to help Stevi find the man who should be in charge of Stevi and Maura. He was sorry to see the fate of his cousin.
Stevi shook her head. "In the same month, I got in touch with Shawn. I also spent the night with the man I met at the club'."
Kyle remained silent. "If Maura's not Shawn's son, doesn't that mean he's the boy you met?" tanyanya gave an opinion.
"That's it, 'cause the guy I met at the club' wasn't just one guy. I've been in contact twice with different people" Stevi said honestly. Actually he was embarrassed to admit this, but he wanted to how else.
Kyle longed as he rubbed his own face when he heard this reality from his cousin.
"Do you know any of them?"
"Just know for a short time that night, I don't know very far" Stevi admitted.
"I'm sorry if I'm too far away. I just want to help you."
Stevi shook her head again, this time she looked down at Kyle.
"Don't help me anymore, Kyle. I don't know how to repay you later."
"I don't expect you to repay my kindness. I only care about you."
"Thank, Kyle. You're very kind. I hope you find someone nice to be with you later." Stevi said sincerely.
And Kyle's response was to comment on the thin smile that made Stevi feel guilty for offending the man.
"Sorry, Kyle."
"Nothing."
Inwardly, Stevi was eager for Kyle to get his happiness again. His cousin is very good, so Stevi also wants to help Kyle get what he wants.
"Now, may I ask you a question?" ask Stevi later.
"What?"
"If, suddenly, Elara came to you .. would you accept her even if she was no longer a girl?"
Kyle pulled one corner of his lips. "Why are you asking me that?" tanyakanya.
"none. I just want to know."
"Yes, for now and for some time .. if what you say really happens, then I'm .. will definitely accept Elara with open arms."
"You love her so much?"
Kyle sniffed his shoulders. "I love him very much. He's like half my life. She's my soulmate" said Kyle, whose gaze now looked bright.
