It seems that Nathan's habits over the past 2 years have not changed. Drunkenness and playing women is his daily routine. The madness still continues either way until when, until Eveline the younger brother must intervene to handle the company that had faltered because of his very bad leadership.
Leo, who is Nathan's trust to take care of the company, has to raise his hand because he can't focus on one job, his task is not only on the company but also looking for the whereabouts of Elena who is somehow in which hemisphere.
"Son, look at you is terrible." Eveline looked closely at Nathan who had just returned from the club.
Nathan shook his hand in front of his face with an unfocused look. "Whispering, is Elena home yet? I want to meet him." Laughter rang out from Nathan's lips. Not how long ago clear crystals dripped from the eyes that used to be able to turn off his opponent.
"Start the drama again." Eveline let out a rough breath, tired of facing her already sane sister. "Let's go into the room, you have to accept the fact that your lover is gone. Don't expect him to come back to you who's been like this badass, I'm lazy let alone Elena." Eveline grumbled as she led Nathan into the room.
Eveline had to be willing to leave her model world in Germany for the sake of her brother who lost his sanity just because of a woman. He always guessed what Elena's figure was like until Nathan who had a rock-hard personality could turn soft like now.
"Drunk people are hard!" Eveline's upset speech when in the middle of the room Nathan fell unconscious. The woman shouted out loudly, calling the occupants of the mansion to help her lift the big body of the elder brother.
"What's up, Miss!" Leo ran from outside with an expressionless face.
"Help me pick him up, he comes home like a bum. How else do I have to make him understand?" Eveline was already very frustrated thinking about the survival of her eldest brother.
Leo massaged the base of his nose with his eyes closed, "all he needed was Elena, the girl who had messed up the life of the master."
They lifted Nathan's weak body and laid him on the bed.
"Some time ago he looked fine. Go to the office and do your usual activities. But now his mental state is just as bad." Eveline covered her face with her hands hiding her sob.
"Have you found the girl's whereabouts yet?"
Leo was silent for a long time. Consider telling the truth or not. Elena already has a lover if Nathan finds out it will only make things worse. But right now all Nathan needs is Elena. Leo is in the wrong position, he has to take the right decision.
"Why are you just quiet? Don't tell me you already knew the girl's whereabouts but you hid her from Nathan." Eveline said while eye-opening. Suspicious of a silent Leo.
"S-me-i,"
"Say!"
"Yes, just yesterday I met him by accident. Precisely at Pradig Inc. but when he was in front of me he seemed to not recognize me" Leo paused his speech. "I feel like the girl doesn't want another master anymore, she's already with another man. I'm sick of seeing it." I'm Leo.
"Why didn't you bring that girl home? At least he can treat my brother's madness, even if they don't have to be together anymore." Said Eveline, all she wanted was for her brother to recover soon. Eveline had left her job too long and also her parents.
"But miss, it's better not to! You'll be even more hurt if he accepts Elena's refusal."
Eveline stood up from her seat, watching Nathan's tired, sleepy face. Eveline grimaced inwardly looking at the tribulation her brother was experiencing. "I'll think of the best solution." The woman leaves the room followed by Leo behind her.
Unbeknownst to them, Nathan overhears a conversation between them. Nathan actually did not faint, his body just felt limp and eventually fell down. Behind the blanket that covered the man was clutching firmly a satin bed sheet underneath. The reddened eyes were open displaying a sharp look. The girl had another man out there while she thought desperately about the girl to the depression she is today, Nathan thought.

Elsewhere Elena felt restless on top of her bed. It was almost 1 in the morning but the girl's eyes were hard to shut. Tomorrow is his first day at work he has to look good, but somehow his feelings are uncomfortable. He had to count from 1 to 1000, but did not bring results. Playing his smartphone to make him sleepy is the same.
Maybe Elena's anxiety had something to do with her meeting with Leo yesterday. Leo must have complained to Nathan, but what does that man care? Maybe he's remarried now, Elena thought. Since seeing the news of Nathan proposing to his girlfriend, Elena no longer wants to open a news site on the internet. If indeed Nathan was still looking for it maybe yesterday Leo will immediately bring it to the man, but in fact it did not happen. I was no longer wanted by him. Inner Elena.
Elena stood up from the room towards the kitchen, suddenly wanting to eat something. Outside the room it was very quiet only a few lights were left on.
Arriving in the middle room Elena saw Rega who was still awake with a laptop on her lap.
"You haven't slept?" Elena speaking.
"I'm still checking some files. I'm used to sleeping in the morning, why don't you sleep?" rega said dividing his focus on Elena.
Elena sat next to Rega cross-legged on the sofa, "I find it difficult to close my eyes, to the point of confusion as to how. Tomorrow I'll start work but until now I haven't been able to sleep, I can make sure my eyes tomorrow morning will look like panda eyes."
Rega smiled as she moved the laptop on her lap onto the table, then gently patted her thigh gesturing for Elena to lay her head there. "Come here! I'm gonna put you to sleep."
"What do you want? It won't do anything, will it?" Elena asked full of questions.
The man laughed lightly, "no dear."
"But there's something I want to ask you first... That guy from yesterday what's your best friend?"
Rega seemed to be thinking to the man Elena meant. Rega remembers yesterday he only met Leo. "Yes, I've known him a long time. He's a confidant of Nathan Wijaya who owns the WJ Company, a man with a myriad of money and a woman. Why are you asking about her?"
"Just want to know. What do you mean by the man with the money and the woman who?" Elena asked with a pounding heart.
Rega rubbed Elena's cheek and looked fondly at the girl. "You don't know? he's Nathan Wijaya, there's been a lot of news about him. Have you never read or seen the news? Last news I know he was having sex with 2 women at once."
"Like that yeah. I'm lazy to read or see the news." Elena said she felt a sting when she learned new facts about her ex-boyfriend.
Not wanting to think too much about Nathan, with Elena slowly moving her body over the sofa, her head resting on Rega's thigh. That position was very comfortable for Elena. Rega's hand gently rubbed the head of her lover's side, occasionally patting the corner of Elena's shoulder gently. Her swipe made Elena involuntarily close her eyes, lulled by Rega's delicate touch.
In her eyes closed, Elena's beauty was increasingly radiated. Graceful and gentle represent the figure of Elena in Rega's mind, not the man knew the other nature of Elena is good at saying rude and violent. Rega took Elena ala bridal style to the girl's room. She covered her up to Lehar, then kissed Elena's forehead for a few seconds before leaving the girl alone.
