Ell slowly put Alice on her bed.
Her eyes were inseparable from Alice who still lowered her face even after being inside her room.
She understood what Alice was feeling right now.
After surviving the danger, Alice again gets torment from her aunt.
She was very sorry for leaving Alice alone.
"Alice..."
Ell sits on the bed and confronts Alice.
Slowly his hand reached out to touch Alice's cheek.
His heart ached when he saw the redness again.
Alice felt Ell's hand touch.
His face slowly lifted and his eyes were now looking at the man who was looking at him with a sad look.
"I'm sorry.
I left you just now.
If I hadn't left, you wouldn't have accepted all this."
Ell's words made Alice shed tears.
He did not blame Ell for what he was going through at the moment.
Instead, he feels guilty for causing Ell to run into trouble with Marine because of him.
Again what Ell did for him had a devastating effect on the man.
Alice shook her head slowly as she stared fixedly at Ell.
"Sister shouldn't have done it all for me.
In the end, I will only regret it for the rest of my life.
It's enough I ruined your life with a marriage you didn't want.
Please don't do that again.
You can't get into my trouble."
Ell turned his head.
He didn't like Alice's words.
Ell took a deep breath and then looked back at Alice.
"What do you mean say that Alice?
I didn't have to do it at all.
I came because I really wanted to, not because of anyone's compulsion.
I admit I've been bad to you all this time, as if I regretted saving you that day.
Ii'm sorry.
But one thing you have to believe is that I'm really afraid something's happened to you."
Alice saw seriousness in Ell's eyes.
He was happy but sad at the same time.
Happy that Ell really doesn't hate her anymore.
But as if to wake up from his beautiful dream, Alice also felt sad because she had to limit herself more than Ell.
Their relationship that began to improve required him not to expect too far.
Ell will still love one girl.
There was only one name in the man's heart...
His sister, Kate.
Sooner or later, they will be separated soon.
Everything will return to how it was.
It was just that the difference, Ell no longer hated him.
Alice returned to shed her tears.
He cannot be selfish!
(I do love you.
But I have to limit myself from you.
I was afraid of falling so deep that I forgot the fact that you didn't love me at all.)
"Hem, I know it's brother.
Thank you very much.
Thank you for worrying about me and saving me.
But I don't want Big Brother and Aunt to be at odds just because of me.
For the next time, I will face everything myself.
Brother just needs to ignore me.
Like this time, I realized that I was again making a mess in this family.
Everyone blames Auntie for me.
I have to go back to my room and then apologize to Auntie.
That way, everything will be back to how it was."
Alice touched Ell's hand and slowly the man's hand slipped from her face.
"Alice what are you doing?
Ell is shocked to see Alice suddenly getting out of bed and intending to leave.
He then immediately approached Alice, who was visibly in pain from forcing herself to stand up.
"Alice..."
Alice immediately dodged when Ell intended to approach her.
Alice tried to be calm even though the tears that came out of her eyes actually showed her fragility.
"I beg you to let me go, Brother."
Alice said with a pleading gaze.
Hope Ell lets him go and apologizes to Marine.
Because he thought it was the only way to restore peace between his family.
He did not want to be in that family anymore.
Ell just kept silent and looked at Alice who was begging him.
Alice's gaze exuded deep fragility.
Alice slowly moved her legs and passed by Ell who was standing before her.
Not long ago, his hand was held back until he made his step stop.
Ell made Alice turn her body to face him.
"I don't regret saving you that day.
If I'm really sorry, today maybe I won't come looking for you.
You don't have to consider yourself a burden to anyone else, Alice.
You don't deserve all that.
I'm not gonna let you go."
Ell releases Alice's hand and then gets closer to her.
Alice closed her eyes as Ell pulled her body and then grabbed her.
Her feelings were so mixed, because this was the first time Ell had embraced her.
He could only shut up because it felt like a dream.
"Stay here and tomorrow we will return to Jakarta early in the morning.
You don't have to see anyone either.
Understood?"
Alice nodded her head in Ell's arms.
Moments later, Ell let go of her embrace.
The two of them looked at each other and made the two of them instantly feel awkward.
Ell smiled faintly.
What's happening to him right now?
This was the first time he felt that good.
"Didn't your leg still hurt?
How can you force yourself to stand up like this?"
Alice looked at her feet.
Doctors had advised her not to stand up much before her wound was completely dry.
"Ah yes, I am.."
Not yet able to Alice continue her sentence, Ell suddenly carried her and carried her to bed.
It surprised him so much.
Ell puts Alice to bed.
He then pulled the blanket over Alice's body.
"Sleep..
I'm gonna take a shower for a second."
Still in her shock, Alice simply nodded her head.
Ell then walked towards the door and locked her room.
She does not want Marine to come again and again injure Alice when she is in the bathroom later.
Before going to the bathroom, Ell looked up at Alice.
He smiled considering how surprised Alice's face was.
Look adorable!
Ell then went into the bathroom.
While Alice was still thinking about all of Ell's treatment today to her.
Slowly he placed his hand on his chest.
His heart beats so fast.
Alice closed both spells.
"No, you can't be like this Alice.
Ell's just being kinder to you.
All this time you also knew that Sister Ell was really a good man.
If you keep going like this, you'll find it harder to forget.
You've been through a lot all this time.
This time you can too!
You don't have to worry, there will definitely be a man who loves you sincerely out there.
You'll meet him at the right time."
Alice took a deep breath and then opened her eyes.
A smile slowly painted on his face.
"Thank you so much Ell.
Good night."
