The bag that Melva put on the table contained all the gifts Emilio had given Melva during their relationship as lovers. Although the actual money that Emilio used to buy all those gifts, was Melva's own money. It was part of the money that Melva transferred monthly to Emilio for her mother's medical treatment and her nephew's school fees.
Seeing that there was nothing else he could do to make Melva listen to her explanation, it provoked Emilio into anger, trying to find a reason to justify himself. And instead trying to make Melva feel guilty for what happened tonight.
Weapons are most often used by the fearless and cowardly like Emilio. Always try to turn things around and make yourself right by finding excuses to blame others. Angry before he himself receives anger. Blaming others first, before he himself is blamed for the mistakes he has made.
“Hah! Don't blame me for everything that happened! All this because of your fault!” Emilio who thought that Melva only knew of her bad deeds with the call women, suddenly shouted towards Melva while she was waist-tracking, made Melva look at Emilio with a dislike look and frowning forehead.
“How can you say it's all my fault? You cheated and bad! And I'm really sorry I trusted you for so long.” Melva immediately replied to Emilio's words with a cynical tone.
“Hah! You are innocent? You made me this way!" With confidence and a high tone and an angry face Emilio shouted towards Melva.
"Say! Tell me where my mistake lies?" With no less emotion, Melva said in a high tone showing how angry Melva was when she answered Emilio's words, by asking back what she had done wrong.
Melva was already trying hard as the good girl from the noble lineage behaved gracefully and did not shout in front of others like tonight. But, tonight he was really hard not to get angry seeing how Emilio's attitude did not even show a guilty face at all after being caught off guard just now, and instead was busy blaming him.
"Because of you! I'm always looking for another woman! Because you always refuse to sleep with me!”
“Plak!” A loud slap from Melva's hand immediately landed perfectly on Emilio's cheek, as soon as Melva heard the words from Emilio which to Melva sounded so embarrassing and inappropriate to a good girl.
“Take care of that brash talk of you! I'm not a cheap woman!” Melva said with her face and eyes looking so red as to hold back the anger while holding back her cries with great difficulty.
To Melva, Emilio's words just sounded so demeaning, considering them to be the same as cheap women who are so easy to sleep with men without a legitimate marriage bond. And those words were so painful, how Emilio was more important to the comfort women than she was to be a good woman.
Melva really did not expect that men who always appear patient and gentle, it turns out that behind her have thoughts and behaviors that are so disgusting. While Emilio felt so shocked and embarrassed to get a slap from Melva.
“How dare you slap me Melva!” Emilio moved quickly, planning to block Melva's shoulder, and return her slap.
Emilio's hand was already raised up, preparing to slap Melva, as a hand swiftly held Emilio's forearm and held her back from touching Melva. Melva, who was originally planning to fight Emilio, looked startled and turned to the side, where Enzo holds the arm under Emilio's hand while staring intently at Emilio who is no less shocked than Melva knowing the presence of Enzo, who is known as one of the princes of Adalvino.
As soon as Melva looked at him, with a loud bang, even accompanied by a deliberate pushing motion by Enzo, Enzo released his clasped hands on Emilio's forearms, so that Emilio's body was pushed back.
Since this morning after hearing all the truth about Emilio, Enzo had already ordered some of his guards to observe Emilio's movements, also protecting Melva from afar. As soon as Enzo heard it was too late for Melva to leave his house, Enzo quickly caught up with Melva.
Seeing Melva enter the bar, from afar Enzo continues to observe what Melva is doing until she accidentally has to hide behind the outside wall of the VIP room whose door is wide open after Monica's departure, so Enzo could hear clearly all the talk between Melva and Emilio, and could act quickly to see how Emilio was intending to hit Melva.
“Sel...Goodnight Prince Enzo..” With a nervous and embarrassed attitude because he is currently only wearing a boxer pants, Emilio immediately saluted Enzo.
“Kak Enzo...” Not to mention Emilio can overcome his nervousness and embarrassment in front of Enzo, his head that had been lowered immediately back to look up to hear how Melva called Enzo with the name Enzo sister, Enzo, it shows that the relationship between the two is quite close.
Damnit damnit! It turns out that Melva knew Prince Enzo well. I must immediately brainwash Prince Enzo not to think badly of me because of Melva.
Emilio cursed inwardly while biting his lower lip, trying to quickly think of saying what to keep Enzo from taking the incident with him just now was a serious matter.
“You okay Melva?” Regardless of Emilio's salute given to her, Enzo's hands held Melva's shoulders.
“I'm fine Brother Enzo.” Melva answered Enzo's question quickly, as her eyes glanced at Emilio who was also seen glancing at him and Enzo, without daring to straighten his body.
Emilio was still in the same position as when he learned that the person who came to help Melva was Enzo, a prince of Adalvino, in a position to pay homage to Enzo. As the people of the lower caste in the social status order of the Gracetian kingdom, Emilio knew enough not to recklessly act in the presence of prince Enzo who was one of the high-ranking men in the Gracetian state as one of the princes of Adalvino.
(Casta is one of the concepts in Hinduism. In Sanskrit and Hindu terms, the concept of caste has the name “Varna.” Caste is the division of society based on class groups that are ranked (stratified). In Indonesia, the caste system can be seen in Bali. Children in Bali are named after their family caste and their birth order. Balinese society is based on the Hindu Color Chess caste system, although it is not as complicated as it is in India).
Realizing who the dashing and handsome man who was beside Melva at this time made Emilio only able to stand still, he said, waiting for Enzo turned his head towards him and gave a sign so that he could straighten his body back up and run to pick up his clothes.
