The Rhyme of the Depositary

157 - SEASON 2

Alice heard a noise outside. He woke up and didn't know what to do. This room was closed from the outside and Alice had no gap to get out. He could only analyze the circumstances based on mere estimates.

There were screams, there were gunshots, even several times the sound of footprints running around outside Alice's room. Apparently, Alice thought that this house was being attacked by some enemy party. But Alice could not detect who the enemy had attacked Luiz's residence this time. He just hopes that all of that will not have a bad effect on him and on Violin. Oh God. Remembering about Violin. How are you in-laws? For almost four days he had not met Violin. Not even hearing his voice.

Alice sat pensively in the corner of the bed with an ungodly mind. He formed small guesses in his heart. I don't know what's going on at this residence. It seemed that Luiz's residence this time was attacked by the other party.

After two more hours of Alice sitting at the end of the bed with an erratic feeling, suddenly the door of Alice's room opened suddenly. Alice looked at the figure behind it. She was shocked to realize the man she so longed for stood up by stretching out both hands to her.

The person he had longed for was now present in real life. His body was like that of Zeus who came to earth.

The man he had been dreaming of now came to him. A gentle smile full of welcome as a declaration of affection.

The person he had loved all this time was now present at his side again. Fulfilling her promise to attend and accompany Alice's days.

This all seems unreal. Alice closed her mouth and let the tears of longing flow like a broken dam. He stood stiffly, moving the joints of his feet. First the weight, then the longer the lighter. Until unknowingly Alice has run towards the figure she missed.

"Klayvers. Oh, my God. Klayver .. you're back. You back. You're really back."

After all the despair that was present in each night. After the loneliness and obscurity that Alice went through in her days that felt increasingly gloomy. Now this man has returned. Completing his old soul was not doused in affection.

"Yes. I returned. I'll always come back." Klayver clutched his female body tightly. There is a small wedge in her stomach, indicating Alice's pregnancy is starting to be seen clearly.

Klayver's smile grew. Clutching Alice even tighter in her arms. Oh God. Finally he was able to return to his female dekapan.the only woman he loved. The woman who makes all her concentration go away.

"You okay, honey?" Klayver retreated slightly and stared at Alice from head to toe. He remembered that his wife was taken prisoner. Being a prisoner is not easy. It is not impossible if for several days Alice is under pressure or certain unpleasant behavior.

"good. I'm doing fine. Me .. Oh my God. Just being here is a miracle to me!" Alice again buried her face into Klayver's chest. He sipped Klayver's signature scent. Wood and mint. Very reassuring and happy.

Is this how longing feels successfully treated? Is this what it feels like to feel lonely ending with a loving presence?

Alice felt a sense of euphoria. He was still crying and clutching tightly onto Klayver's shirt, which now looked disheveled.

Klayver realized what Alice was feeling. It must not be easy for the woman to experience every one of these difficult processes without her. Alice was already more than strong because she was able to face every danger that threatened.

"Alice, I know we need time and space to celebrate our reunion. But can you realize something? I haven't found Violin yet. You go out in front of this building. There's Jasmine and William waiting for you in the black limousine. Come to them and go home first. I need to clean up the mess here. You can go through the hallway next to this house. The hallway I secured earlier. You hear that?"

Klayver shook Alice's shoulders and made the woman understand their current situation. The side aisle has Klayver secured. It wouldn't be dangerous for Alice to pass through the front of the building to meet William and Jasmine.

But the other problem is still not solved. Luiz still hasn't managed to conquer Klayver, Violin hasn't found Klayver yet. He couldn't just leave this matter and leave without doing anything.

"alright. I'll do it!" Alice nodded quickly. He understood the urgency of the situation. Violin needs to be found faster. Alice can't hinder Klayver's current mission.

"I'll tell you a safe side route for you to take!" Klayver kissed his wife's forehead and hugged her once more for the last time.

"promise! You'll be back for me soon!" Alice clasped her husband's hand and squeezed him slowly. Both of his eyes revealed hope and worry at the same time. Klayver's heart was sliced. Alice had not been with him for a long time and protected him. Now that they could meet, they were preoccupied with a critical situation that they had to deal with as soon as possible.

"definitely. Sure. It's still seven o'clock at night. Before midnight, I'll try to get back to you again. Now, hurry! Don't let Luiz's men find you first!"

In the next second, Klayver dragged Alice's numb hand out of the room. He gave a brief instruction on which direction Alice should go and then they parted ways. Alice walked to the left of the room down the small hallway, while Klayver straight on to search for Violin's whereabouts.

Alice walked in a hurry. At the end of the second-floor hallway, he was shocked by the bodies of two of Luiz's bodyguards who were now lying horribly. One was shot in the forehead, the other was shot in the chest near the stomach. The two bodies showed both eyes still glaring. Their faces are scary. Like zombies in movies.

Alice shuddered in horror and was forced to step over their corpses. For her own safety, Alice must be able to control her emotions and keep walking straight towards the place Klayver said she was. Alice will meet Jasmine and William. Oh God. Alice missed both of them very much.

"Let'soooooooo!"

Alice was screaming hysterically. Again he found another body in the corner of the room near the middle room. The body is worse. His neck showed a very fatal wound. Blood is everywhere.

Oh God. Alice held her stomach, hoping not to spit out all the contents. The turmoil in his stomach was getting bigger. He wanted to vomit in that place as well. Presumably his stomach was no longer able to tolerate the scenery he saw.

After emptying her bowels with all her energy, Alice resumed her journey. He had already arrived at the side door. That door just opened. Alice thinks Klayver is the one who set this up. Quickly, Alice exited through this door towards the side courtyard. There is a walkway that connects to the main courtyard. Alice ran around the street. Just a few steps he ran, heard the sound of gunfire from the building behind. Alice looked over and looked.

Could it be Klayver? Was he fighting a gun with someone else?

As Alice wanted to turn around, she heard a very familiar voice.

"Alice! Alice!"

As fast as lightning Alice looked. Jasmine stood a few meters away from him. He waved his hand, pointing at the front page. Indirectly the woman hinted Alice to run away immediately.

"But Klayver—"

"He can handle the problem. The important thing is that you survive first!"

"But—"

"When you go there, can you help him? All you have is going to be a burden right now. Hurry up here before William gets mad at me for slowing down time!" Jasmine shouted in annoyance. Alice could not help but justify what Jasmine had said. He can't help anything right now. Alice's existence will only be a burden to Klayver.

Weakly, Alice followed Jasmine's steps. They finally arrived at the main courtyard. William put his car under a big tree not far from the gate. The man was seen anxiously waiting for Alice's arrival.

"Hurry in! wait especially!" Jasmine was annoyed by the anxiety that was seen from Alice's countenance.

"Klayver—"

"Alice, my dear, your husband is a full-fledged strategist. Your existence here will only hinder your own husband. The only thing you can do is go home and take shelter in a safe place!" Jasmine explained as she dragged Alice's hand into the black limousine that William was carrying.

Alice could only step down and do what Jasmine said. Maybe Jasmine is right now. Alice's existence here would only be a burden and not help Kalyver at all.

Weakly, Alice sat in the car. He rubbed his face a few times. Matamya stared at Luiz's residence which was getting more and more visible away.

It was there that Alice was held for several days. It was there that he saw James' true side. In that place he also saw Klayver after a long time they separated.

"Alice, you're okay, aren't you?" Jasmine looked at her friend thoroughly. She needs to make sure Alice doesn't experience things that aren't good.

"good. Just a little shock." Alice smiled, trying to calm Jasmine and William who looked restless.

"Sorry, Madam. I wasn't by your side when Madam was threatened with danger." William sounded very sorry. He looked back for a moment, wanting to see firsthand the reaction of his master.

"me too. If I had known after dinner that you would have something like this, I would have followed you and come to dinner too." Jasmine was no different from William. The two of them were truly sorry for feeling a sense of helplessness.

Jasmine and William strongly believed in Violin and James. They never thought Alice could face danger when she was with her in-laws. In Jasmine's eyes, Alice's in-laws were a very powerful person. It was impossible for Alice to be in danger when she was with them.

Unexpectedly, that was precisely the gap Luiz used to attack them. Who would have thought that the man was cruel enough to infiltrate slowly and lead Alice into her perfectly designed trap.

Only, in the course of Luiz's plan, Klayver comes to Alice's rescue. They all turned to attack Luiz. The situation that was going to side with Luiz, now made fun of him

"Don't feel too guilty, Jasmine!"

"Of course I feel guilty. Klayver has entrusted you to me. It's not that I did what he asked, but that I let you be in danger like this!" Jasmine sounded hard to forgive herself. These past few days Jasmine had spent so heavily. His mind was confused and did not know how. Alice is lost without a trace with Violin and James. William, Daniel, and Maxen who tried to help find Alice's whereabouts did not manage to find any clues at all.

Until then, Edward came and investigated Alice's whereabouts. The man introduces himself as Klayver's confidant. He and William then form a partnership to find Alice.

Their steps then yielded results. They knew Alice was being held by Luiz at one of her Manhattan residences. Plan after plan and then they make it.

Eventually, Edward decides to tell Klayver and let the man go home to take control.

"Don't blame yourself, Jasmine. What happens is the destiny of nature. We never know where nature will take us. There is always a scenario in every situation. Don't be so rude about judging yourself!" Alice patted Jasmine on the shoulder, trying to give some understanding.

Although Jasmine is technically the patron that the clayver rents for Alice, but in reality, God could have given her another plan and given her a loophole for certain events. Human abilities are limited. No one can dominate God's plan.

Perhaps, Alice was indeed outlined to experience this incident. Perhaps, God has a wisdom value that Alice can take away from this incident. That was what made Alice able to accept her current state of affairs.

"As a friend, you really have a good heart, Alice. I'm lucky to know you. Now the problem is, I feel unlucky because of the howling. I was worried Klayver would punish me!" Jasmine's eyes stared out through the car window. New worries began to seep out from his heart. Klayver is a very difficult man to deal with. I don't know what kind of anger that guy would channel to Jasmine.
