As she had expected, when Ares returned home from his office in the evening, he was astonished to be greeted by hundreds of red tulip stems. And, just like before, the front room of his house was filled with the aroma of tulips.

Grey clenched his jaw and then yelled, attracting many people to gather.

"What's happening?" Ares shouted as several maids came and crowded the path between the front room and the hallway.

"Sir, we received these flowers from the couriers and couldn't refuse. The couriers begged us to accept the flowers, and Miss Keyara also allowed it," Margaret explained as Ares stood with his hands on his hips, facing all the maids.

"Yara?" Ares furrowed his brows, then rushed to his room and entered Keyara's room.

Keyara, who was playing with Lion then, was surprised when the connecting door between her room and Ares' room opened.

"Yes?" Keyara looked at Ares with curiosity.

"Yara, do you know anything about the tulips in

"Don't do this," Keyara said.Grey raised an eyebrow, curious. "Why?" he asked."I... I can't," Keyara said, fixing her slightly disheveled clothes. Grey felt dissatisfied, "Why? Don't you miss me?

As he reached the front gate, it opened automatically.He drove into the compound and proceeded down a road flanked by forests on both sides.Grey parked the motorcycle at the house's edge and removed his helmet.

    Grey fell silent after Ms. Maple left his room. She was correct; why hadn't he done anything to introduce Catalina to Ms Maple? A sudden idea crossed his mind, and Grey quickly got up.He hurriedly put on his clothes, slipped his jacket, and rushed out of the room. As he descended the stairs, William, walking with his head down, approached him."Are you leaving, Mr. Grey?""Yes.""Will you be back late at night?""Yes, oh, please prepare the best wine for me.""Now?""I need one bottle as a gift for a friend," Grey said."Alright, I'll prepare it, sir," William replied."Oh, I also need the silver-colored car. Is it ready to use?""Yes, sir. Do you need Ethan to drive you?"Grey waved his hand, "No need. I'll drive myself." He then headed to the garage.Not long after, the silver car zoomed out of Grey's residence, cruising through the streets.

    Ares bit his lip. His fingers clenched tightly from the tension. Ares wasn't afraid of Grey; he had never feared any enemy, but his anxiety stemmed from Keyara's presence. He feared what might happen when Keyara and Grey met, as it could trigger Keyara's memories and make her realize something.Grey, who stood before the gate, grew impatient as the sound on the other side kept breaking up. He then shouted loudly, "Hello!!"Ares sighed before speaking emphatically, "You know, Grey, that you were never welcomed in this house?""Oh, come on, Res, I'm offering a truce here. Isn't that enough? I came to your place alone, without my guards! Or are you still holding a grudge about the scar on your shoulder from two years ago?"A thin smile appeared on Ares' face. "Will you forget when you smashed my monitor screens in this house?"Hearing Ares' words, something inside Grey was triggered, like igniting a flame on dry wood. In an instant, it could burn rapidly. Who could forget the awful memor

    Ares walked closer to Grey and then extended his hand for a handshake.Grey gazed at the outstretched hand and reciprocated, allowing their hands, which had long felt like weapons ready to attack each other, to clasp. A truce was established.Grey then presented a paper bag containing a wine he had bought to impress Ares.Ares received the paper bag, opened it, and took out a green bottle with a slightly aged label. He traced the brand along the bottle and read the year of its making. The older the wine, the richer and more aromatic the taste.The servant who had been nearby, standing and waiting for orders, as anticipated, saw Ares beckon her to come closer. He handed her the wine bottle."Tell Margaret we have a special guest, and tonight's dinner should be exceptional," Ares said to the servant, who nodded in response.Ares walked towards the sofas and gestured with his hand, inviting Grey to sit on one of them.He chose a different sofa for himself, facing the one Grey had chosen.

    Ares smiled, his hands initially spread on the dining table, then lifted, forming a triangle that supported his chin."Interesting..." Ares said, "You came here to challenge me. Does that mean there's no intention for a truce?"Grey shook his head, "This is just business, Res, and I think you and I are the same. We see business as a business. In business, there are winners and losers."Ares then picked up the bell on the side of the table and placed it upside down. Grey grabbed it and rang the bell, producing a jingling sound.Not long after, several servants appeared and began clearing the table while others brought dessert dishes. One of the servants pushed a metal tray and approached Grey from behind.

Keyara even found it difficult to breathe for a moment."I'm grateful you're back, I truly had no idea where else to look for you!" Grey exclaimed with joy.Keyara tried to hold her breath as Grey continued to hold her tightly, but at the thirtieth second, she couldn't bear it any longer. She attempted to convey to Grey that she was having trouble breathing in such a tight embrace.Grey quickly released his embrace. He smiled with happiness."Ah, now that Grey is here. Grey should also take a seat," Keyara said.Grey nodded and promptly took a seat on their sofa."Where have you been, Key? What have you been doing,

Seeing Ares' lips moving, Keyara leaned in closer, placing her ear nearby. She could hear a faint and gentle voice."Yara..."Keyara immediately tightened her grip on Ares' hand. "Yes, I'm here...""Yara..." Ares' voice sounded weak. "Water..."

His plan for the day was to visit Keyara, take her out for a while, and then return to the office.Grey decided to take it slow, considering that Keyara hadn't regained her memories yet. It must have been quite a shock, but Grey was confident that if he reassured Keyara, their marriage could be restored.Thus, Grey whistled happily, imagining all the positive things in his mind. As he descended the stairs, his cheerful demeanor caught the attention of his mother, Ms. Maple."Grey, why do you look so delighted? Is there something pleasing you?" Ms. Maple inquired upon seeing Grey's joyful attitude.Ah, Grey smirked and realized he hadn't shared the joyful news of Keyara's return with his parents yet."Well, you could say that," Grey replied, then approached and joyfully kissed his mother's cheek."Oh, are you going to share it with me?"

"Bring me there, Berry. I need to see him," Keyara said, her voice quivering as she fought back tears.Berry nodded. He would do just that. Berry guided Keyara towards his car, where the headlights still illuminated them. He opened the back door for her to make it easier for her to get in.

Letting that man claim her, while he had already committed a grave wrong against her.Keyara still seemed visibly shaken.

Though her surroundings felt unfamiliar due to her memory issues, she recognized that this was her room.From behind the closed door, a knocking sound reached her ears.

    Ares wiped his nose. The thick, red liquid streaked across his hand. He remembered a time in junior high when he had bled, back when he faced bullying. But Ares wasn't one to back down when confronted by oppressors. He fought back, leaving his tormentors with broken bones and a call to their parents.

Bringing Keyara to this place, what now?Initially, he wanted to step back, but something in his heart urged him to move forward again. Now or never.His feet, which were initially uncertain, took another step. The open door revealed no one. He proceeded with caution.

Especially not an outsider like you, knowing about Keyara's situation. Unless... you were the one who leaked the information to Grey himself. Am I wrong in my suspicion?" Ares turned around now, finding Doctor David pale in place.Ares seemed to clench his fists, then he asked again, "How much were you paid to provide that information to Grey?"Doctor David shook his head, "No... it's not like that...""HOW MUCH WERE YOU PAID!!"
