"So while she disappeared, she was around this town? But how could it be that 17 years ago my family couldn't find her?"

Dirga explained.

"That's because they immediately moved out from this city when she was found."

Harry became focused.

"What exactly did you mean?" Harry asked while gently massaging his tired forehead.

"She moved out? Where and why?" added Harry. Didn't get it.

"S City. At the end of the city. Because Apollo transferred from his job, he had absolutely no choice at that time to refuse. So the only way he thought was to follow the order given."

Harry made conclusions in a fast time. He finally could understand why no one managed to find Jenny. Because that search effort hasn't been spread to another city yet. They just looked for her in this city and still thought that Jenny was around them.

Dirga added.

"So without knowing that Jenny was being sought after by her family. He brought Jenny to go and named her, Julia. Apollo just returned to this city after 5 years passed. When the entire hunting of Jenny was stopped at the third year."

Harry squeezed his hand.

The timing was highly inappropriate. So that to whom, he can throw this mistake? Is that Apollo who tried to protect Jenny so that he was forced to take her? Or is his family's misfortune within doing a missing child search?

The ignorance of those who don't think far due to panic and stress. Whatever it was, everything didn't want Harry to blame anymore. Because it will only add to the hassle.

Dirga put the report book on the desk and straighten his body.

"Then, I have assigned two people to go to Switzerland."

***

At the same time, at home.

Cleo was busy composing various plans as well as the rules she wants to set in her shop. Ane looked confused at the seriousness of Cleo who didn't stop and without looking at her, she continued to stare at some of her notes piles.

Ane sent several messages in handwriting to Cleo. Getting close to Cleo and knocked on the table to ask for attention.

[ "Mistress! Do you want me to make something to eat in the afternoon when I felt you must be hungry because you keep touching your stomach? " ]

Cleo looked at Ane. She was hungry. But she hasn't been eager yet.

She repeatedly held back the feeling of being depressed because there were already heaps of ideas he wanted to do. But all of that was blocked by a sudden stomach ache which she felt as a result of not touching her food since noon.

Cleo nodded slowly. She handed back the notebook after writing.

[ "Good choice, Madam. I will make you a bowl of meat soup and a plate of warm rice!" ]

Cleo showed a wide smile.

She had seen Ane into the kitchen and was busy doing something there.

A message from Ethan suddenly entered.

[ Hi! This is Ethan. And what is your situation healthy? I rarely see you again. Are you not going to take the course again and you are not going to continue your dream to open a bakery? ]

Cleo replied to the message quickly.

[ I'm so healthy, Chef. And I also hope you are healthy. I'm sorry for being absent because of the many incidents. However, for the time being, I haven't been able to return to the course due to some personal reasons. ]

Cleo sent a second message.

[ Then as additional information. I'm already planning to open a bakery shortly. It's not at this month. But still about two months ahead. I admit this is too soon. However, if I suddenly need some suggestions and input or answers. May I ask you that time, Chef? ]

Cleo involuntarily chuckled as she recalled how Harry had forbidden her from being with Ethan for learning reasons.

Another message came in after that. The message came from Willy and he was worried about her.

[ Are you okay? And didn't get much big of an influence from the big news circulating? I just found out when I saw Harry's press conference on tv. And after I searched and browsed through loads of news, I was finally able to understand quite well what situation was going on. You didn't get hurt, did you? ]

Cleo felt her blood flow calmly. Because a friend she recognized as a family provided shade in his every word.

"You haven't been changed, Willy. You have always been a great friend and always the person I can be most proud of. I can't wait for our first meeting in a long time."

Cleo replied to Willy's message.

[ I'm very fine. And this problem doesn't have a significant impact on me at all. Because the problem just focuses more on Harry's extended family, his parents, and himself. So that I who was only a side person did not get any influence. Besides, of course, some questions might be thrown at me. ]

Cleo made two long paragraphs in her message.

[ Then, I hope that you are also good, Wil. Wishing you all the best and get your future. Now, how? Are you comfortable there? And what's fun there? ]

Ethan's reply came shortly after.

[ Thank goodness, you are healthy and fine. So do I. But I admit that the course would be a little lonely without you. I'm glad to know your plans. Then, you are perfectly allowed to ask me anything. Everything is free! And there will be no charge. ]

Aunt Ane had come with a tray and food. The aroma was extremely appetizing. Cleo couldn't stop swallowing saliva because the worms in her stomach suddenly churned.

Harry's fresh voice came from behind.

"You just ate at this hour and were busy working?"

Cleo and Ane immediately turned around. They saw Harry had walked over to her and kissed Cleo's forehead. Hug her briefly. Then sit beside her. Harry seemed to be waiting for an answer from Cleo after he handed Ane his bag and coat.

"I'm just too busy doing a job. Unconscious at the time. Then just felt hungry about a few minutes ago. So I asked Aunt Ane to prepare something for me."

Cleo offered her the food.

"You want to taste it?"

Harry shook his head.

"Spend it alone and don't make your body emaciated."

@w.e.b.n.o.v.e.l.w.e.b.n.o.v.e.l

Cleo grumbled.

"I'm not skinny. Although not fat. So, don't usually men prefer slim women?"

Cleo teased Harry while shoving a spoonful of rice into her mouth.

Harry nodded.

"Not wrong. But how you look I really don't care, as long as it's you."

Cleo almost choked. She coughed a little and drank.

"Are you currently boasting?"

Harry still had a serious face.

"No. I'm serious about my words. And I'm not making up stories just to please you."

This seriousness and great faith pierced Cleo's heart. She was very touched. He suddenly felt full. Then laugh.

Cleo made a joke either.

"Then I will be thin as a bone if I hear your talk every day! Because after hearing it, I become full easily."
