"I miss you, my brother, being in prison is so bad. Look at my face, it's full of bruises. How could I not hurry out?" Edward spoke as he leaned closer to the seat where Ethan was sitting, in his hand was a sharp knife ready to stab.

Ethan immediately opened his car and was about to get out, but Edward immediately pulled then wrapped his arms around his neck.

"What do you want, Edward? Let me go!" Ethan tried to let go of Edward's hand that seemed to be strangling his neck.

"Hahaha ...." Edward laughed evilly, bringing his face closer to Ethan's. "I'll let you go after you die!"

"Don't be crazy you!" Ethan continued to struggle.

Edward, who was getting more and more overwhelmed because Ethan was also as strong as him, immediately stabbed his younger brother in the shoulder several times with a knife and then let the knife stick. "Feel it!"

"Arrghhh... you're mean, Edward!"

"Arggghhhh... damn you! I'm sure the police will catch you soon!" Ethan groaned in pain clutching his bleeding shoulder.

Seeing that Ethan was already in pain, Edward tightened his grip on his arm as if to suffocate.

"You must die, Ethan!"

"Argghh... let go of. .. me! Arrggh...." Ethan moaned in pain and had difficulty breathing.historical

By that time Ethan's car door was half open and his leg was sticking out. some passersby felt something strange when they saw Ethan's legs move because at that time Ethan was struggling to escape Edward's stranglehold.

A man on a motorcycle stopped and approached Ethan's car. His eyes managed to widen when he saw Ethan's shoulder covered in blood and Edward strangling him with his arm.

"HEYYY... RELEASE HIM!" The man shouted as he opened Ethan's car wide. Then he shouted at the other motorists to stop. "HELP! HELP ... THERE'S A KILLER!!"

"DAMN IT!" Edward furiously let go of Ethan and got out of the car. He ran away before anyone who helped Ethan would chase him.

The man who had shouted earlier ignored Edward who had run away, he was more concerned with helping Ethan.

"Alright ... it hurts ... agrhh ...!" Ethan continued to growl in pain glancing at his shoulder which was still pierced by the knife deep enough.

"Wait a minute, sir, I'm looking for help!" said the man in such a panic that several residents and motorists helped Ethan, helping him to the hospital driving the sports car.

Ethan is currently sitting back in the back seat with the knife still stuck. the blood continued to flow and he began to limp from the intense pain and lost a lot of blood.

"Luna ... my kids ... I must endure for their sake." Ethan's vision grew dim and his eyes slowly closed.

"Hold on!" exclaimed one of the men in the green jacket, as if he was an online motorcycle taxi driver. While driving was another driver who also stopped to help Ethan.

Ethan's rescuers looked panicked and drove Ethan's sports car faster and faster towards the nearest hospital.

Elsewhere, Luna has just left for a photoshoot at a studio located quite far from Shandra's or Ethan's house. The beautiful model was driving with a blank stare remembering Ethan who called her this morning.

"It's just gossip, but who made the gossip, it's outrageous. Spreading news that is completely untrue!" Luna grumbled.

Because she was not focused on driving, Luna almost hit someone who was pushing a dumpling cart. She stopped and came out to apologize.

"Sorry, sir. I didn't see it, I wasn't focused enough," said Luna, feeling guilty.

"Next time, you should be more careful," replied the dumpling seller. The man was a man with a wrinkled face looking like he was in his 50s.

Luna felt sorry for the man selling dumplings as if it reminded her of her late father. She reached into her bag and took out five pieces of Rp. 100,000 in five pieces.

"This is for you, just take it as a token of my apology." Luna handed him the money.

"No, I'm not used to receiving money without selling my wares," said the man with a smile.

"Yes, I ordered 10 packs, but received all this money," persuaded Luna.

"Okay, I'll get it for a moment." finally the man accepted Luna's gift and got 10 packs of dumplings for Luna.

Feeling tempted, Luna asked for a portion to eat directly. but while eating, she suddenly remembered Ethan being generous to the poor and wanting to eat street food. For some reason, the woman felt homesick and became confused thinking about her husband who had been ignored.

'Ethan, what is he doing now, has he eaten?' Luna thought as she ate slowly.

"This is the dumplings. I'll give you a bonus of five packs," said the man selling dumplings while handing him a plastic bag containing i5 dumplings.

"Thank you, sir, I hope you sell well today," replied Luna with a smile as she took the plastic filled with dumplings. Then she got back in the car and drove it to the shooting location.

while crossing a red light, Luna stopped and saw several children around the age of ten, singing near her car. She glanced at the dumplings in the plastic, then took the initiative to give it to the boy.

Luna pressed the button on the door until the car window opened. "Dear, come here for a second." Luna waved at the bunch of kids in dull and dirty clothes.

The group of children immediately approached Luna's car. "What song do you want to sing, Sis?"

"No need," Luna replied with a friendly smile. "I just want to give this, to other friends too."

Luna handed the dumplings. She looked pityingly at the boys and remembered the moment she visited the orphanage with Ethan.

"Wow, thank you, sis." The biggest boy took the plastic filled with dumplings.

"Don't go yet," said Luna. then he took some Rp. 50,000 to one of them. "Shared with other friends. You also have to be careful when crossing."

"Yes. Thanks a log, Sis."

The group of children smiled cheerfully because they got money and dumplings from Luna.

Luna smiled back at them, then she immediately closed the car window again and started driving because the yellow light was on.

While driving, Luna kept thinking about Ethan. Her husband's voice last night when he made the call sounded weak, even this morning it seemed as if he did not dare to protest much to him.

'Have I gone too far, why do I feel like I miss the times we used to be together? But I'm tired when we get back together there's always someone who doesn't like it. why are we like this?'

Luna contemplated her being too cold and curt, but all of that happened for a reason that faded love and didn't like being banned, didn't want to be happy over Sarah's misery. And she was still thinking about Evelyn sitting on Ethan's lap.

Arriving at the hospital, Ethan was immediately taken to the ER by a nurse who placed his body on a gurney. At that time Ethan was in a semi-conscious state and very weak from losing a lot of blood.

the men who helped Ethan also escorted him to the front of the emergency room until they stopped for a moment when Ethan opened his eyes and wanted to say something.

"Please.. contact the one whose name is Andrew..tell him to save Luna, because Edward is out of jail and back acting..." Ethan exclaimed in a very weak voice. He reached into his tuxedo pocket with his right hand which was not hurt at all, to get his smartphone.

Ethann handed him the phone, before collapsing again and being brought into the ER.
