After having lunch together, Luna and Viona continued to chat in the living room while sitting relaxed on the sofa, while baby Keenan and Keyra were still sleeping.

"I'm tired of the problems that come just because of fighting over me. I've made Ethan and Edward enemies, even though they've been close brothers since childhood." Luna looked down weakly. She back to felt uncomfortable and haunted by guilt, even though she was the victim.

"Don't blame yourself, Luna. because Edward is the one who has no shame in leaving you, then wants to come back as he pleases," said Viona, looking at Luna with pity.

"Yes you are right, but how should I break up this feud even now that there has been a crime, I'm so confused, Viona." Luna was still scared remembering last night's explosion. She was horrified if there was bloodshed between Ethan and Edward, afraid that the two babies would also be harmed.

"You just have to be patient, Ethan will solve this problem," Viona persuaded with a reassuring look, rubbing Luna's shoulder.

"Hopefully there is evidence that can be used to arrest Edward," replied Luna, then thought back to her in-laws who were also Edward's parents.

"But I feel bad for mommy Dina, she's very disappointed at Ethan and Edward's feud," she continued sadly.

"Mommy Dina certainly understands what should be fair to them. Those who are evil and want to do harm, of course, must be punished. She is the best in-law for me," said Viona, glancing at Ira who put lime juice on the table right in front of her.

"She will be sad if Edward is imprisoned," said Luna while staring lazily at her orange juice, she had no appetite for the fresh drink.

Viona sighed, remembering that she had hidden evidence of Edward's crime which was now missing somewhere. "If I wasn't mad in love and hid evidence of Edward's crime when he broke the brakes on Ethan's car, maybe something like this wouldn't have happened and he would have been jailed for a less severe sentence," she said regretfully.

"Don't be sorry, Vi. I understand at that time you were trying to understand and get his love or maintain your marriage."

Viona sighed, then drank the juice again. "Hopefully you too can survive with Ethan, even though the trials continue to hit."

Luna nodded and smiled steadfastly, then she looked at Viona who always looked happy after the divorce.

"You look better after the divorce. especially after I heard the news of your relationship with Dr. Frans," said Luna with a relieved smile, because she was happy to see Viona happy.

"Yes, Luna. because I dared to take a big step and it turned out to be a change of situation that I never thought before," replied Viona then drank the juice that Ira had made. The drink was enough to relieve her dry throat.

"Lucky for you realized that Edward was surely not good. I didn't expect him to turn out horrible," said Luna.

"When I first found out about him, I was amazed because he was kind and independent, but he was able to turn into a scary man who dared to do domestic violence," said Viona while stirring lime juice.

"I was afraid Ethan would be like that, he doesn't love me because he's always jealous of Edward."

"Ethan can't be like that, Luna. In my opinion, he's even like Frans," said Viona, who equated Ethan's character with his lover.

"Is it true?" asked Luna, raising her eyebrows.

Viona smiled faintly. "So far I've only seen the warm side of Frans who always made me comfortable, just like when I saw Ethàn always made you comfortable," she said confidently.

"But he's very jealous."

"Jealous is a sign of love. You should be grateful. because if not loved by the couple, it hurts so much." Viona imagined that during her marriage she only felt a lot of sadness because Edward continued to chase Luna.

"But the fruit of patience and courage to take a tough decision to divorce, made you find a good man, Viona, I salute to you," said Luna with a relieved smile.

"You're lucky to have Ethan too, don't let your guard down because of Edward, he's such a shameless man. I'm so sick of seeing him, sometimes I regret being infatuated with him."

"Haha...by the way, I used to love him too." Luna chuckled because she also had the fate of loving Edward.

Fiona laughed too. "Because you're Edward's ex too."

"Our ex-bad guys," Luna muttered after a sigh.

"When I think about the past, sometimes I feel guilty because I hurt you so much," Viona remembers her crime, even though Luna forgives, the events of the day where she pushed Luna down, caught Edward making love with Sarah, then the accident that made her lose her baby as if still imprinted and always replaying in her memory.

elsewhere, Edward was talking to a man who was tall and thin, with long hair and many tattoos that almost filled his arms. His interlocutor looked like a bad guy. Is he planning a new strategy to destroy Ethan? Edward looked more and more unfeeling for sure.

"Mark, I believe you are a sniper and already have a title in crime in the underworld," Edward said with a proud smile at the man named Mark.

"There's no need to praise me like that, Edward. just tell me what you want to come here for," said Mark.

Edward was motionless for a moment, taking a sip of the coffee made by Mark's housekeeper which was still hot. "I'll pay you dearly if you can kill Ethan," he said.

"You madman! Are you seriously telling me to do this? Isn't he your brother?" Mark gave Edward a strange look he had known for a long time, and he also knew Ethan.

"He's just a stepbrother, to me he was no longer my brother when he took the girl I love," Edward said with all the selfish feelings that still dominate his heart.

"Just because a woman you want to kill her? You're so crazy, Edward!"

"Don't keep calling me like that, Mark. Since I'm so sick of seeing him happy with my ex, he'd better die!" Edward looked annoyed at Mark who had been saying he was crazy.

"Aunt Dina will be disappointed."

"I don't care, she's just an unfair stepmom."

Mark sighed, then asked, "can you pay me that much? I know you're not very rich, Edward!"

"Don't underestimate me, Mark. My money problem is no longer a problem I'll pay whatever you want, but kill him first!" Edward said with eyes shining with hatred.

"There must be a down payment because I work very neatly and there will be no police who can track my crimes!"

"You just do it!" Edward took a check from his pocket that had written a face value of one hundred million.

"If you can't kill him, give me my money back!" Edward exclaimed as he handed him the check.

"Okay. I'll make you pretend to cry over your stepbrother's death," said Mark confidently.

"Hmm, I'm waiting for news of his death as soon as possible." Edward quickly finished his coffee, then got up from his seat. "I have to get back to the office," he said goodbye.

"Hmm," Mark responded.

Edward immediately left Mark's house far from the crowd. the house was located far from the city and there were only a few neighbors around.
