“Love? In your dreams!” said Rose.
“I like this type of girl like you. You look smart, unyielding, fearless and confident. You can be more than just a lover. You deserve to be my wife.” Sean said.
“Basic is not sane.” umpat Rose that makes Sean more eager to tease the girl in front of him.
“Your assessment of that person's personality is very bad. You're completely wrong. Anyway, you better stop that useless talk. Now quickly give me her phone and also release that man named Jordi.” Rose said.
“Yes, I did want to give this phone to you, but after we transact.” said Sean, he then opened Rose's phone which did not have a security key. Sean is seen typing a number on the phone's call board.
“What are you doing?!” ask Rose.
“Sedang do a number exchange transaction with you.” replied Sean with his leisure.
“Cih, don't expect me to save it.” Rose said.
Sean smiled as he pushed the button on Rose's phone. “Therefore I made this call.” Sean said, he then picked up his phone which sounded ringing from inside his jacket pocket.
“I'll keep your number well. Make sure you don't change your number because I am.” Sean said as he handed Rose's phone to the girl back.
Then then, Sean turned his gaze towards the three men who had been waiting for orders from him ever since.
“You release that man named Jordi, then bring him back home. In the future we do not need to bother him anymore.” Sean said to his subordinates.
“But sir, when he testifies in court tomorrow— ”
“Ignore about the court tomorrow. I'll let them win for my beautiful butterfly.” he said.
“Again, even if they win, they won't be able to sue us back.” he said again.
“So fast you guys get it done. Because soon this place will be crowded. As this beautiful butterfly says, soon the police will come here.” he said after that he again walked closer to Rose.
“Sweet girl, let's just say the events you saw and everything you heard before never existed and never happened. It would be better for you and that guy named Jordi. Ah yes, another one, this is also good for the life of the son of the man, if not wrongly named— Jesi.”
“You! Never touch or hurt an innocent girl. I really won't let you if it happens.” Rose said.
“Yes, I make sure that won't happen as long as you keep your mouth shut. Hows it? Good deal, right?” ask Sean.
Rose was silent for a moment, she wanted to say no. But if you've talked about a deal. It really has no other choice.
“Good, I agree. But you have to really keep your word, don't be a loser by denying it.” Rose said.
“Yes, of course. I am not the type of person who likes to break promises, let alone a promise and a deal I made with a beautiful girl like you.”.
“Ah yes, I make sure we will meet again, my beautiful butterfly. See you.” said Sean who then left in front of Rose.
After Sean left, suddenly one of the three men immediately smothered Rose's mouth with a handkerchief that was given drugs. Rose was unconscious within seconds.

Yana is seen running towards the elevator, then after the elevator door opens, she immediately enters it, pressing the elevator button on the number seven.
Not long after, the elevator door opened. Yana ran back, as quickly as she could, to reach Samuel's lawyer's room.
“Yana?” call a man, he Feng who accidentally saw Yana.
“Feng, have you seen Rose?” ask Yana.
“Rose? Isn't he in the room with you? Why are you asking me and looking for him here?” ask Feng.
“So you don't know yet if Rose moved the room? Ah that's not important. Now I must immediately go to the lawyer's room Samuel.” said Yana, she then rushed to Samuel's room which was only a few meters away from where Feng stood.
“Oh, it turns out you're young lady Yana. Are you looking for Samuel's lawyer?” said a lawyer who was a senior from Feng.
“Lawyer Samuel left a few hours ago with his junior.”.
“Do seniors know where they are going? Can senior tell me?” ask Yana who looks impatient again.
“That, it looks like they went to meet their client coworkers in the eastern part of the capital, the convection company Liem.” replied the man.
“Liem convection company? Thank you for the information.” said Yana. “Feng, you come with me.” said Yana who then pulled Feng's arm to have the man follow her.
“Senior, please allow Feng to go home early.” Yana yelled at her senior Feng.
“Ah yes, good young lady Yana.” replied the man.
After getting into the elevator, Yana is seen making a call, she is calling the police to report the problem of Rose who had suddenly called her but when Yana picked it up, Rose did not answer her words at all.
In the call that Rose had made to her earlier, Yana only heard a faint voice from a few men. Feeling that something was wrong, Yana immediately moved quickly to meet Rose, but as it turned out, Rose actually left and was not in the room. It made Yana worry even more.
“Yana, exactly what happened? Why do you look so panicked? Did something happen to Rose?” feng asked after Yana finished calling the police.
“I will explain it briefly.” said Yana. “Tadi Rose suddenly called me. But he didn't make any sound at all and all I heard was the faint sound of some men talking. I thought Rose had hit me wrong, but when I tried to call her back, I declined. Even so I still try to contact him again, but the last time, his phone is dead.” said Yana.
Hearing Yana's explanation, Feng immediately appeared to display his worried face. The man was even impatiently pressing the elevator button as if his actions could make it quickly to the ground floor.
“You wait in the main lobby, I will go directly to the basement to take my car.” said Feng who then immediately ran after the elevator door was wide open.
Seeing Feng who had run ahead of him, Yana also rushed towards the main lobby, waiting for Feng's car there.
A few minutes later, Feng arrived in his car. Without waiting any longer, Yana immediately got into Feng's car. Then at high speed, the car that Feng was driving crossed the streets of the capital that had begun to be crowded.
“Sials. Do you know of a shortcut to the eastern capital? If we go through the main road, of course, in two hours we will arrive.” said Feng.
“You just calm down. I have an uncle who works in the eastern police of the capital. My uncle said the police would be arriving soon where Rose should be.” Yana said.
“I hope so.” said Feng who increasingly increase the speed of his car.

A few seconds later, Rose's eyelids seemed to move. The girl slowly opened her eyes, adjusting her vision to the light in the room.
“I'm where?” muttered Rose as she rose from her position lying on the straw-floored wooden floor.
He then circulated his gaze throughout the room while digesting all the events that were still recorded clearly in his memory.
“Man earlier, was he kidnapping me?” ask Rose to herself. But then he realized that his hands and his whole body had no rope to tie him up.
Rose then stood up from her sitting position, but when she tried to stand up, Rose felt her head still dizzy from the effects of the drug she had forcibly inhaled earlier.
With staggering steps and a still blurry view, Rose walked towards the door.
Arriving at the door, he immediately turned the door knob. And to his surprise, the door was not in the key. Rose immediately came out of the room.
When her feet stepped out, Rose realized, it turned out that the room was not a warehouse, but a place like a building for a farm.
“As I recall, I was in a convection company that had a lot of containers, but why am I here now?” ask Rose to herself.
“For what did they anesthetize me and take me out into the open like this?” mumbling Rose.
After that, he again stepped his legs while holding his head that felt still throbbing.
A few steps he walked, a voice calling his name made Rose want to immediately reply. But he was too weak and limp, even as if he was helpless just to make a sound.
“I'm here.” said Rose softly, then then her limp body fell to the ground. He didn't faint unless he really felt weak.
“Rose!” shouted a woman who Rose believed was Yana, her friend.
In her frail, helpless condition, Rose smiled, she could breathe a sigh of relief when Yana had been nearby and began to help her to wake up.
“Yana.” says Rose ogre.
“Do not speak. Shut up, you look so pale. You take it easy, you are safe, the police and medical team will come here soon.” said Yana.
“Yana, who are you coming with?” ask Rose.
“What's your max?” ask Yana who does not understand the purpose of the question from Rose.
“Did you tell Yuan about this issue?”
“Yuan? Ck, you're weak like this but you're still thinking about Yuan. You better think about yourself.” said Yana.
“I'm fine. Just feel a little dizzy because of the influence of drugs.” said Rose.
“You're drugged?! Absolutely outrageous, later after you are fully aware, you can tell me who has made you like this.” said Yana.
Rose smiled in response, but in her heart she said that she could not tell Yana. It was because of the deal he had made with Sean earlier. If he divulges about what really happened. Then the life of an innocent young girl will be threatened.
“Yana.” call Rose, she is trying to switch the topic of conversation.
“Ya?”
“Please promise me not to tell Yuan this. I really don't want to worry him. After all, if Yuan knew, he would most likely forbid me from apprenticing at Anyu's law firm. So please don't tell Yuan and don't let Yuan know.” Rose said.
“Well, I won't tell Yuan. So you calm down.” said Yana.
After Yana said like that, a man was seen walking quickly towards them.
“Rose, are you okay?” samuel asked with a worried look.
“I'm fine senior. Senior need not worry.” Rose said.
“Dumb girl, didn't I tell you to stay still in your place. Why did you leave? You know how many people you've bothered with? Even this young lady brought a lot of police personnel and medical team.” said Samuel who did not seem to know about the actual incident happened to Rose.
“Sorry.” says Rose.
“Ah forget it. Now tell me, why are you here? This place is quite far from our location. Why did you get here and why do you look so pale?” ask Samuel.
“That, earlier, I heard a loud bang, then out of curiosity, I looked for where it came from. But when I got here it seemed like someone was smothering me from behind, after that I don't know anymore what happened.” Rose said.
“But just now why did you get in touch with me? And I also heard the voices of some men? Are you sure you're okay. Rose don't try to cover something.” says Yana.
“Ah that, when I got here, I saw there were some men who were talking, then out of curiosity I eavesdropped on their conversation. But it seems like I got caught, because that's why someone drugged me. I'm grateful because I was just left here.” Rose said.
Hearing Rose's strange incarnation, Samuel fell silent, staring at Rose with his stolen face. But then the man sighed.
“Think what you said is true. Now you better go to the hospital with Yana. I cannot accompany you because I still have to interview Jordi.” Samuel said.
“Jordi? You mean senior, Jesi's father? Is he found now? Is she okay?” ask Rose.
Samuel nodded, “He's fine. Not long ago he met me.”
“Really? What did he say?” rose asked him if Jordi was telling him the truth. But anyway, that seems impossible.
“He only said that today he can interview anytime, he also said that tomorrow he will come as a witness.” replied Samuel.
“Good.” said Rose who increasingly made Samuel feel there was something hidden by his junior.
“Then I go first.” said Samuel. “Ah yes, sorry for putting you in a dangerous situation on your first day of internship.” Samuel said.
Rose looked at the senior with a friendly smile, feeling that Samuel had just apologized with a sincere heart.
