Her attraction and curiosity about her best friend's older brother were still burning.She went to her parents to bid farewell. Bu Hani and Pak Arman were in the living room enjoying snacks while watching TV."Pa, Ma, I'm going out for a while," she said as she shook their hands."That's better. Don't stay in your room all the time. Do you need Pak Joko to pick you up?" Bu Hani asked, not wanting a repeat of the incident when Chelsea had to stay at her friend's house due to being drunk."No, Mom, he's coming to pick me up," she declined. She sat down for a moment, realizing there was no point in going out right now. Daniel hadn't arrived in front of her house yet."Is he a special friend?" Bu Hani probed. Until the age of 18, Chelsea had never introduced any of her boyfriends to her mom. Either she didn't have a boyfriend or she hadn't wanted to introduce anyone to her parents. Bu Hani and Pak

David drove the car further away than usual, heading to a villa owned by Tuan Kim at the peak of Bogor.In the villa's garage next to the main building, David stopped the car and hesitated to get out. He was trying to interrogate his own heart. Why was he even thinking so much about Chelsea? In the past 24 hours, her name kept lingering in his mind whenever he was awake.There was one thing David hid from Chelsea all this time—what happened that night. Actually, David remembered it clearly. He recalled entering his room and finding a seductive woman lying on his soft bed.

Among the pile of clothes, he found what he was looking for—a wide smile formed on his lips as he grabbed the piece of fabric.It was a red lace evening gown, with a daring open front. The material was thin and translucent, making it irresistibly alluring. He saw no harm in bringing this beautiful red dress for his wife, Jessica, especially since she had been dressing rather conservatively in front of him lately. Yes, she looked beautiful in her usual attire, but he couldn't deny his desire to see her in a sexy evening gown.Lexi approached Jessica, who was still lying on the bed, her face buried in the pillow as she had just woken up."Darling," Lexi called softly."Yes," his wife responded, lifting her head from the pillow. Their eyes met, and Jessica was puzzled by the strange expression on Lexi's face."Go and get ready!" Lexi commanded, extending

Especially what was disappointing, after the incident that night was still too imprinted in Chelsea's memory."Put your seatbelt on," David said, breaking the silence."Okay, David," Chelsea replied without looking at the man. She often looked down or out the window.David didn't drive his car. He glanced at Chelsea. He was giving attention to the look on her face despite wearing thin makeup clearly visible, but her face was a little pale.“You're not sick, are you?” David asked.
