Ineffable Life (P. Mafia and Mr. Idol)
Part 44: Secret Meeting
Layla sits in the corner of a stewed noodle shop on the edge of the village. He seemed to occasionally dart left right agitatedly. From a distance Albert's men are still monitoring him since a few days.
Layla appeared to be wearing simple clothes and a little makeup.
Then from the entrance of the tavern looked a middle-aged man wearing a black coat stellan and a black hat approached towards Layla, then he sat down opposite her.
"I'm sorry I'm late." exclaimed the man quietly immediately sitting across from Layla.
"I told you to meet at night.What if big lady Jane followed you.." Layla rattled.
"It won't even know I'm still in this country." Dominic said casually. "How's Ana and Lucas doing??" Ask her slowly.
"The big lady Jane seems to be troubling him. Good thing Lucas is helping Ana a little bit... Can't you stop her?" Layla asked worriedly.
"You know how Jane is. Nothing can stop her obsession.." - Dominic.
"Thank you once again for bringing me, Ana and Lucas together.hmm, I mean Albert.."
"I'm really worried about you. I know you need Ana and Albert.." Dominic cupped Layla's hands together.
"Protect Ana. focus on Ana. I'm sure Jane won't just let Ana go. Only Ana can we rely on to get rid of Jane. So as much as possible we should be able to protect her.." dominic meant it.
It turned out that Albert's move to the city of S was thanks to Dominic's intervention, and he also made Albert a detective who handled the case of Ana's attack at that time. And Dominic is also the one who turns out to provide information about Layla's whereabouts to Ana's men.
Some photos succeeded in capturing Albert's men, then he immediately sent them to Albert's email.
Shortly receiving the message, Albert, who was shocked, immediately sent the photos to Ana. Ana who did not respond to his message made Albert more upset.

After finishing the meeting Ana immediately walked towards her room while checking her phone. There are 3 messages he received from Louis, Albert and Jane.
Ana smiled warmly at the selfie that Louis sent her. He also appears to have selected a photo in his cell phone gallery and sent it back to Louis.
When opening Jane's message, Ana just put on a flat face "don't forget dinner tonight with franz.." the short message made her uncomfortable.
The day is always bad because of Jane, she also gets a lot of trouble for the sake of problems every day because of Jane.
Then he immediately opened a message from Albert and his footsteps stopped instantly. He was stunned to see some photos of Aunt Layla and Dominic. Ana was stunned staring one by one at her phone screen. Mr. Kim who was standing behind Ana looked puzzled.
"There's a Ms.Grey problem?" Ask lirih.
"No." answered Ana briefly still while looking at the photos.
Ana immediately kept her phone in her trouser pocket, and continued her pace faster towards her room.
"Do you need anything Ms.Grey?" Ask Mr. Kim before leaving Ana's study.
"Prepare everything I need, our plans tonight must not fail Mr. Kim." replied Ana flatly.
"Well Ms. Grey.." nodded Mr. Kim understood.
Ana immediately pulled out her phone and called Albert.
"What's going on?" Ask Ana to panic.
"Come away, but they look familiar.."
"Let me know if there's anything else sis.I guess what you said back then about humungan the three of them right sis.."
"Sure.I'll tell you more soon.." Albert was still on the call silent for a moment. "I read the news about you and brother Dominic." he seemed hesitant to discuss it with his sister.
"Have you seen it??"
"Is this Mrs Jane??"
"Of course.who else if not him.but take it easy. I have other plans for it sis..believe me.." said Ana calmly.
"You too, brother.Say my regards to my brother-in-law and niece.I'm sorry I haven't been able to visit them.."
"No problem Ana. don't get burdened with that.."
"Well then, I'll see you later.." Ana immediately disconnects her call with Albert.
He seemed to think hard, what was between Aunt Layla and Dominic. He didn't even know they were close. Ana massaged her forehead hard. Suddenly he felt a migraine. Ana gulped down a bottle of medium-sized mineral water on her desk until it ran out.
Diet, bedtime, to his regular exercise schedule is now a mess. Ana who is famous for her healthy lifestyle is now her mandatory routine is chaotic because of the many problems she now faces. Before it was Jane, then B1 and now Aunt Layla with Dominic.

Louis blushed in embarrassment during the make up room. The staff in the room smiled at Louis's charmed behavior with the photo that Ana sent for him. This afternoon he had a talk show on a television station, to discuss his new drama and also plans to debut as a singer this weekend.
Mr. Dong approached him and immediately grabbed Louis's cellphone which had been the cause of the funny behavior of the artist. He looked at Ana's photo as the wallpaper of his phone.
"You're crazy??" mister Dong cried in shock.
Louis chuckled amusedly with a cute smile on his face.
"Hey !! you have to change your wallpaper.don't cause any trouble.." whispered Mr. Dong thrusting Louis' phone hard.
"who will see my phone anyway.Who will dare???" hatchling cuek.
"Good shit Lou !! you're really crazy where you got that photo.What Ms. Grey said later if she finds out you stole her picture and made it wallpaper on your phone.." Mr. Dong's bellow was inexhaustible.
"I didn't steal it. He sent it to me.." Louis sees the contents of his message with Ana. And sure enough the photo was sent directly by Ana.
"You guys have really gone crazy." He breathed.

When the talk show started, Louis was in the studio with a female host. Of course the face of Louis sumringah make the audience in the studio and the crew of the event fascinated to see it.
"You seem to be very happy." exclaimed the woman again in the middle of the show after catching the signal that Louis was in a very good mood.
"I'm always happy because I'm surrounded by people I love and of course love me too." she replied again with a sweet smile.
"Ah.. this time I will ask a little seriously about your rumors yesterday which is still a mystery." exclaimed the woman with a cautious tone.
"Ah... about me and Ms.Grey??" ask Louis to guess.
"Yes, that's right.you guys look so familiar.." the woman nodded in relief to get a good response from Louis. "Everyone became very curious about the news and about your actual relationship with Ms. Grey, because suddenly the news disappeared, then suddenly this morning came another dating rumor about Ms. Grey with another man.. It really surprised all of us." obviously the woman relaxed.
But the woman's last words changed Louis's countenance.
"I have great admiration for Ms. Grey. I think she is a very remarkable woman." replied Louis with a branched mind.
"Then how do you feel about Ms. Grey's wedding plans?? Do you also know the figure of a man who is close to him?" ask the woman again, then displayed some news quotes from Jane's confession about the relationship Ana and Franz who could not even be said to be a couple, and also some photos of Ana and Franz's affection giving Ana a flower this morning in the lobby of her office.
Louis was stunned to see the photos. He couldn't say anything.
"How did you respond?" the woman asked, repeating her question.
"I don't know that guy either.. Ms.Grey never told me about her.." Louis' bell was stamped with a lethargic look.
"You really have a very good friendship, keeping each other's privacy right." added the woman after capturing a signal from Louis's face that looked unhappy.
"Well, now we're going to talk about preparing for your new album that's coming out this weekend." added the woman again, trying to shift their conversation about Ana.
Since the photo was shown Louis turned quiet and lackluster until the end of the show. He only answered a few words according to the host's question.
-->> photos of Ana that she sent to Louis.
