As planned, they had dinner after his procedure. And though they had an awkward moment earlier, it was all forgotten when they are heading to the restaurant Luther reserved for them.

"I don't know if I will be alarmed by the way those women look at me. Perchance, have you canceled a date tonight to take me to dinner? Those looks could kill me anytime" playfully she whispers after slightly leaning towards him as they walk to their table.

"Don't mind them and for the record, I didn't just squeeze you into my schedule tonight if that's what you're thinking. I don't set a date and cancel it after something came up. I'm not like that" he casually responded while carefully holding her by her back.

Amused by his defensive response, she chuckles while glancing at the ladies she was referring to. She usually doesn't mind Luther's whereabouts, especially with his one-night stands. However, tonight she feels different. No matter how hard she convinces herself this is just a usual dinner betwee

    "It's seldom for you to ask me for dinner. What happened? Are you sick?" Tim suspiciously asks after they both got settled. Arah called him earlier to have dinner and since he has no other plans for the night, he readily agrees. "Funny, Timothy Steel. I'm tired of eating alone in my clinic, that's why" she smiles while browsing the menu. "How about Luther? Aren't you supposed to be eating together? That's what husbands and wives do after a long tiring day of not being able to see each other" he teasingly persisted. "Nah, your brother is a busy bee as I am. Our schedule doesn't seem to fit these days" casually, she mumbles. Tim has been staring at her, ignoring the menu book. There's something in her that he couldn't figure out. "How are you? How is it being married to a jerk?" playfully, he asks before turning to the menu in front of him. "Hmmm...I think I'm fine. Nothing's new, still busy. And the marriage thing... Actually, I sometimes forget I am married" chuckling and amusi

    "Oh, hi. Good morning" Arah was startled by the figure sitting at the breakfast nook. She thought she was alone. Since she got home from her dinner with Tim earlier, she hasn't even blinked and she wasn't aware Luther arrived home. It was past midnight and she got thirsty from trying to sleep so she went out to grab a drink. Clutching her silk robe in front, she faces him. Aside from her flimsy champagne-colored night dress beneath the thin robe, she wears nothing. With his presence, she feels naked. She hasn't mind being decent since she was not expecting to find him at home. Usually, he would spend the night at some hotel together with his 'takeout'. Luther is resting on the nook but looked up upon hearing her. "Good morning" though his voice is hoarse and slurry, he musters to greet her. "Rough night?" she playfully asks. Looking at him, he looks like a mess. She doubts if he is even sober. She got no response but a drunken chuckle."You rest now, Ther. It's almost morning"

The two went straight to the table reserved for them. Claire looks like wanting to approach them upon seeing them, but Luther guided her away. "Such absurdity. A husband dating someone else in front of his wife" he chuckles while gently shaking his head. "What's between us is just a silly agreement, Tim. He doesn't owe me anything" casually, she counters. She is so tired of battling with herself that she almost felt numb. Luther cannot hurt her more than she is hurting now. She can no longer feel another pain topped to the excruciating pain she has been enduring since the

    "To whom do I owe this visit, CEO Steel?" smiling, she playfully asks Luther after he got settled across from her. "Let's get a divorce" unceremoniously, he announces. Arah leans on her chair while intently looking at him. While their gazes lock, silence rules. She had actually expected it but it still hurts. The previous night during the dinner banquet at the company, Luther had made his point. Not only her but the entire family together with those who were present have seen that point. It was clear. And it become clearer to her yesterday when they met again during lunch. She was with Tim while Luther was with Claire. So she has been expecting him to ask for a divorce anytime but not this soon. She miscalculated. "Okay. Where's the document? I will sign it" she smiles and opens her hand to him.It's been a while since she agreed but Luther remains unmoving, staring at her. "No questions?" Luther snickers after a while of silence. "None. It was not part of my terms to ask the re

    "So, you and Arah are now divorced?" Helen casually asks while they are having dinner at the mansion. "Yes," he responded with a casual nod. "What came into your mind marrying her just to escape me? Marriage is not a game, Luther!" exasperated, she angrily raves at him. "I can't believe Arah agreed to this dumb charade" she added. "She lost nothing from the agreement, mom. I didn't disturb her peace. Married or not, she goes on with her life as if I didn't exist. She is too busy to mind a husband, so the setup made no difference. We got married and divorced, that's it" he calmly counters."Then, I won't be bombarding you with the nonsense of settling down. I can't believe you had come up with the most absurd ideas to escape" after glaring at him, she rolls her eyes in annoyance. "Glad to hear that" he mumbles while he continues eating."I would love to see you get settled and I would be more delighted if it's Arah. But some things are not meant to be.

Fidgeting on her feet, she turns to Luther who gave her assurance with his smile.Awkward silence ruled before it was disturbed by a loud chatter coming from the entrance.

    Arah looks around the place that is very familiar to her. It has undergone some renovations but it's still the same place as she remembers. But she cannot understand why Tim ask at this time to talk to her. It was her wedding night and what was more surprising was when Luther let her come with his brother. Though he had a valid reason to make sure the children were settled at home before spending their wedding night away from home, something is not adding up. "What is this all about, Timmy?" chuckling, she asks the quiet man beside her. They are at the bar waiting for their drinks. "Don't overthink. I just want to spend time with my best friend. It's been a long time since we had this time alone" playful, he responded. "Yeah, we both got busy" quite guilty, she mumbles. These past months have been a mixture of setbacks and feats. "It's understandable. Your family is growing and you should prioritize them" he fondly smiles while she responded with the same fondness. "Thank you f

    "Mama... "One word that made Arah gasp before bursting into tears. It was a softly spoken word but reached her ears. However, not only her heard the small voice. Luther's eyes widen in disbelief while his mother has the same predicament as Arah. Their eyes brimmed with tears as they all stare at the calm orbs staring at the bride. "My little dove...yes Amari, mama is here" cupping her face, she tenderly speaks to her daughter. "Mama..." And there it is again, making her laugh with pure happiness while tears freely stream down her face. Unconcerned about the light makeup she wears. "Yes, my little love" she quivers. "You're giving me the greatest gift on my wedding day, Amari" she happily exclaims while scooping her from Helen. Amari just look at her for a moment, seeming to be memorizing her face. And Arah let her while watching her gray orbs trailing her face with her calm gaze. They waited for her next word. Though Arah was already contented hearing her speak a single word.

It's been a month but no one visits her. Even the dead bodies of her parents remain unclaimed. The city has no choice but to just bury them in one of the public cemeteries. "We suspect they are illegal immigrants. We don't have a name for the three victims. We also find nothing in their belongings to help us with their identity" the man continues. "Then expand the investigation to other countries. I want to know where she came from. She can't be a Jane Doe. Somewhere, someone knows who they are" Luther dismissed. He doesn't like to be at a dead end. "Yes, sir. We will immediately report once we got any information. The team is moving now. Sir Ba
