"Lisa! You shameless woman. What are you doing here!?" Clara shouted, stunned at the sight of Lisa who had just appeared. The words that Lisa spat out from mouth transformed into a sharp dagger that pierced Clara's heart and destroyed her confidence.
"Shut up, you bastard, I have no business with you here! I'm here to return the property Oscar once bought for me," Lisa replied harshly and loudly. Her eyes glanced at Clara with the corners of her eyes filled with disgust.
"Get out of here, Lisa! You are not welcome in here!" Clara snapped, pointing at the exit.
"Oi, oi. Who owns your house? You or Oscar?" Lisa asked sarcastically, a condescending smile appeared on the corners of her lips.
"You bitch!" Before she had time to step up to where Lisa was standing, Clara was already blocked by Oscar and told her to back off.
"Let me take care of it, this is none of your business," Oscar said coldly. "What do you want, Lisa?" He continued asking.
"This is the credit card that you gave me. I don't need your money anymore. Also I'm returning every single thing you've bought me. I don't want to accept things bought with the money of an accomplished liar like you!"
Lisa threw the credit card at Oscar and then kicked the suitcase containing the clothes and bag the man had bought for her.
"Our relationship is over here. I don't want to be indebted to you!" Lisa said firmly.
Oscar gripped the credit card from the floor and handed it to Lisa. "Lisa what is this? I gave it to you! Take this card again!"
"Oh so you're trying to humiliate me in front of Clara now? As if I was a cheap, materialistic woman like Clara? Take it, I won't accept your money. Even though I'll have to sleep under a bridge later, I still won't accept it!" Lisa said curtly. She crossed her arms proudly.
"Never mind, don't give it back! You don't deserve to be nice to a shameless woman like Lisa," Clara added mockingly.
"Shameless, you say? Haha, try to see who hasn't been married yet but dares to be naked in front of her future husband?" Lisa quipped, glancing at Clara.
Clara's face immediately changed drastically when she heard the hot insinuation in her ears. She really despised Lisa. She gritted her teeth and then snapped, "Bastard! Get out of here! I don't want to see you again in my life!"
Lisa raised her hands as if she was a criminal who had just been caught red-handed by the police. Her face seemed to mock Clara with one eyebrow raised and then said, " Hey hey hey, I don't want to see you again either. I hope you both live happily ever after. Bye, you jerks!"
"Lisa, wait! Let me explain!" Oscar tried to prevent Lisa but unfortunately, the woman had already rushed out of his room.
Lisa came home on foot to freshen up her frantic thoughts. Actually, she felt that she had been humiliated by Clara but she did not want to appear weak in front of that woman and Oscar.
That night, the sky rained heavily. Without anticipating the weather, Lisa was caught in the rain because she didn't bring an umbrella or raincoat. The chill of the night breeze and the constant rain that wet the streets of the capital city added to her bad mood.

"Bastard!" Oscar swore. The man immediately grabbed his coat and went out of the room. Clara immediately put her clothes on again and chased after Oscar, who looked furious and frantic.
"Oscar! Where are you going?" Clara asked hastily. Her steps limped as the man ran to the ground floor.
"Back to the office!" Oscar replied sharply and curtly. The man didn't turn his head towards Clara at all.
"Oscar, please, before you go back to the office, I want to say something!"
Oscar's steps immediately stopped, he sighed and then turned his body lazily to look at Clara.
"What else? You want to tell me to kill Lisa?" Oscar asked sarcastically.
"It's not that! I want our marriage to speed up."
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Oscar asked back, his brows knitted together.
"I can't wait to marry you!" Clara replied firmly without hesitation.
Hearing Clara's words just now annoyed him. The man sighed as he rubbed his face. "What's the rush for? I still have a lot of unfinished work in the office. It's all because of you Clara!"
Without waiting for a response from Clara, the tall, slender man immediately walked out of the house quickly, leaving Clara looking confused in the lonely house.

Arriving at the Petersson Communication office, Oscar lit his cigarette in the president's room. The reason he came to the office late at night was to release his fatigue and stress. He could not understand how cruel his ex-lover was just to win his old love that had ended long ago.
Oscar stared at the night view of Jakarta which was cloudy and covered in rain. Right now, all he had in mind was Lisa. He still felt guilty for betraying her just because Clara threatened him.
If Oscar did not marry Clara, then William's fate, his child with Lisa, could be very bad. If Clara was able to do evil things like she did to them, then it was very likely that the demonic woman would dare to kill William at any time.
Oscar must prepare a strategy for the safety of his son. A difficult choice. Without realizing it, tears began to flow in the corners of his eyes.
As he stared at the window of his room with a miserable gaze, suddenly, a shadow of William appeared in his mind. He still remembered the first time Clara brought William from the orphanage to his home, he felt a very strong bond that could not be explained in words. As if William was his flesh and blood and now that everything was revealed, it turned out to be true. Not only that, William's face was very similar to Oscar's, only his hair was dark like Lisa's.
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door and then broke into the president's room.
Oscar jumped from where he stood then turned around. "What is this!?"
"Mr. Oscar! Bad news!" Dani exclaimed anxiously. It was unusual for Oscar's personal assistant to appear restless and scared, as if he had just seen a ghost.
"What's wrong Dani? Explain!"
"William sir, he's not at Mrs. Greta's house!" Dani replied hurriedly.
Hearing that sentence just now made Oscar's heart stop beating. He had just seen the shadow of his son and then he heard bad news!
"What do you mean Dani??!" Oscar was startled and at a loss for words.
"Earlier, I went to Mrs. Greta's house according to your order, but when I went there, Willliam was not there. I asked Mrs. Greta but she didn't know where William was now. She was also panicked when I came to the house!"
"This must be Clara's doing!" Oscar said with suspicion.
"I am not accusing her but it is probably Miss Clara who kidnapped William," Dani replied.
Oscar was silent for a moment as he plopped down on the chair. He closed his eyes, trying to calm his chaotic heart.
"Dani, I need you to look up for all of Clara's phone history. Make sure you don't miss anyone!" Oscar ordered firmly.
Without saying much, Dani nodded and then walked out of the president's room.
"That bitch! How dare you hurt Lisa and me!" Oscar shouted angrily.
