Darlen was already home when he saw Hannah and Axel being escorted home by Demitri, there was a sense of annoyance of course in Darlen's heart to see Demitri's face even though Darlen only saw her from behind the window.
But when he saw how happy Axel was, seeing that Axel came home with a big smile made Darlen smile and feel happy, it looks like Axel and Demitri get along well and Demitri can make Axel happy.
At first Darlen was prepared to curse Demitri all out if Demitri actually made Axel uncomfortable or too pressurizing Axel, but it seems everything is going smoothly. It's good if that's the case.
“You're home, how's lunch?” tanya Darlen welcomes Hannah and Axel, in Axel's hands there are two 2 toys that Darlen believes must be a gift from Demitri. “Wah.. Axel bring what, from whom is it dear?”
Axel widened his smile even more, glad that Darlen asked. Because he really wanted to tell about this toy to Darlen.
“Om Demitri bought Axel, Pa. Om Demitri good yes, buy Axel a big robot.” Axel is still eagerly showing Demitri's gift robot, Darlen nods his head at Axel who proudly shows off his new toy.
Darlen admits Demitri was ingenious, seducing Axel with toys. Of course, small children will certainly be devastated with toys, if Demitri is this ingenious then it does not take long for Demitri to really be able to get Axel's heart.

“How, did Demitri do anything weird? He's not overdoing it and forcing himself to be close to Axel right?” Darlen asks Hannah, now there are only two of them. Axel's gone to his room. I want to play with that new toy.
“No Darlen, Demitri not so. You think too badly of Demitri, Demitri does nothing strange.” Hannah sat on the couch, sitting right next to Darlen. “You yourself how, did you and Giovano have a romantic lunch together?”
“Romantic what, we just have a regular lunch and yes our discussion is not far from Axel.”
Hannah nodded in understanding, it must have been hard for Darlen to let go of the child he loved leaving with the man he so hated half to death.
“You're really getting married to Demitri?" darlen asked again, this time his facial expression was more serious than before.
Hannah laughs at Darlen's expression, and also laughs at Darlen's question which she thinks Darlen is thinking too far.
“I have not decided to marry her, after all I have just given her the opportunity not to marry him directly. Married business, it can be thought of next time, and also my main focus is still on Axel.”, Hannah said, recalling Demitri, after seeing how Demitri treats him and Axel has indeed shown how Demitri does not play the game wants to establish a serious relationship with him.
Seeing Demitri's actions alone Hannah already knew that Demitri loved her very much, but Hannah still did not dare to step into the fold with Demitri.
“After I think about it, it would be good if you and Demitri got married. That way Axel can have a real family, have a Father and a Mother. You know not that until anytime Axel can never be my son in law, because my relationship with Giovano is off limits.” Darlen said slowly, this is also what Darlen previously discussed with Giovano at lunch together. Giovano thought the same thing.
“I also doubt Axel can accept my situation and also Giovano, as good as Axel. As good as we can, we educate him to be open-minded. If Axel gets different treatment from the people around him because of me and Giovano. Axel would have hated us for making his life suffer. So before that happens there's a good thing if you get married.”
Hannah notices Darlen who seems to hold back her tears, whenever discussing things like this Darlen always holds back her feelings. Hannah knew it was hard for Darlen. Being a different person was not easy, Hannah tried to warm the atmosphere back with her jokes.
“So you'll let me go for Demitri, even though you hate half-dead to her. Are you on the same side now?” seductive Hannah follows Darlen's arm.
Darlen and Demitri are on the same side? Where possible.
“I still do not fully believe in Demitri, but seeing from two people I love in this world support the man. I can't do anything, can I? There is no harm in also giving him a chance, man can change.”
Hannah nodded her head, smiled and leaned spoiled on Darlen's shoulder. “You know Darlen, I'm so happy to see you. I have no one in this world and to think that I am worthless and that dying is the only way for me. But you came and tried to show me that I am precious, that I am not alone. I don't know how I would be without you.”
Darlen also smiled, gently rubbing Hannah's head crest against her shoulders. “I also don't know how I would be without you. I always felt lonely even though I had Giovano, your existence was also a happiness for me. Even though we don't have blood ties, you're still my dear sister.”
Hannah laughs again, “If you weren't Giovano's lover I would have made you my husband.”
“Be careful with your words, if Giovano hears can he hit your head with his briefcase.” Darlen replies with a laugh.

“How, smoothly?” Ivander comes to Demitri's workspace while carrying important files that Demitri must sign.
The man sat down casually on the sofa after putting the file he had brought onto Demitri's desk.
Ivander saw Demitri smiling broadly, seeing that Ivander was already able to figure out that the process of approaching Hannah's child in the guise of having lunch together went smoothly.
“I'm glad if everything goes well, at least I don't need to see your miserable moody face again.” Ivander casually raises his legs to the table, trying to find the most comfortable position for him.
Ivander feels exhausted of course, having been busy taking over Demitri's work every time Demitri leaves to pursue her love.
“Ivander, you should also start looking for a lover. Do you want to be a weathered bachelor forever?”
Ivander frowned and stared at the Demitri hunk, the weathered bujang he said. Ivander is like this also because of who, because dizziness takes care of Demitri who is always heartbroken.
“You think I can find a lover after seeing how you suffer just because of love? I'd rather be a weathered bachelor than be a love slave like you.”
Ivander was already quite satisfied with his life, making love to many women without having to be tied down. Ivander loved the freedom he had.
Having the kind of love that Demitri feels for Hannah will only make Ivander end up miserable. Ivander didn't want to go through what his sister was going through.
“No need to worry about me, you better focus on taking your future son's heart. That way you and Hannah can get married soon.”
