Double ups.
...
For a while, the silence between the father and son had been disturbed by the bustle of two male employees who were moving a long table to be placed in the side yard, where barbeque parties were common.
"Dadd, who's the guest coming tonight?" leo asked Arshlan with a curious look on his face.
It's nothing, because when Leo sees all the preparations, it looks like the person who will come is arguably a pretty special guest.
"The guest at the barbeque party later was Mr. Jody Frederick, and he was daddy's business colleague. Since the beginning of daddy struggling in the business world, daddy has known him as a good person. Tonight Mr. Jody Frederick will come with his only Florentine daughter."
"Florence?" leo's eyebrows suddenly linked to hearing the name. "Daddy Florentia means the beautiful Asian woman, who was with Luiz all day yesterday?"
Arshlan's pupils dilated when he realized that Leo had even known the Florentine figure. "How come you know Florence too?"
Leo nodded. "Yes, dad. I accidentally met them yesterday."
"Good, if they're often together like that. Thus in the future Luiz and Florence can get closer to each other .." concluded Arshlan again towards Leo who this time chose not to give any response.
Florentine.
Well, it looks like that woman.
In an instant, Leo's memory had been drawn to the beautiful woman who was cheering Luiz so eagerly, as they fought a beach volley against El and Dimitri.
Well, it's true. She was the same woman, who was on the beach xx always clinging to Luiz all the time, giving rise to a look of jealousy that was clearly visible from the look on El's face.
El ...?
What is the relationship between the Florentine woman and El?
Leo could even bet, although the two did not seem to be greeting each other and communicating, but Leo was very sure, that El and Florence were two people who knew each other ...!
"Daddy, mommy, and Mr. Frederick. The three of us were planning to bring Luiz and Florence closer, who knew they could find a match for each other. After all ... it is also good for the future of the business in the future ..."
Leo who heard it was just a beard.
So Luiz is about to be betrothed to Florence ...?
I don't know.
But clearly, Leo is even very pessimistic about their relationship.
Luiz and Florensia .. for some reason, Leo is not sure if the two agree with their parents' plans.
So far Leo has never interfered in the issue of privacy Luiz, especially when it comes to women and romance.
But even so, deep down, of course Leo also expects happiness from his twin brother.
"Leo, honey, can you help mommy?" Lana who suddenly appeared just like that had left Leo a little surprised.
"Hi, momm," said Leo as he returned Lana's embrace upon noticing her presence. "What can I do for you, Momm?"
"Leo, does Victoria still work at the florist?"
Leo nodded in agreement, but his eyebrows were still tied to each other. "Still, momm. What's wrong?"
"Tell Victoria to help mommy order a beautiful bouquet of fresh flowers."
"Well, momm, I'll tell Victoria, I hope she wakes up."
"Go, baby, and tell me too that soon Doctor John will arrive. Mommy had John's doctor come on purpose because it looked like Victoria's health had recently been on the decline."
Leo stared fixedly at Lana, as if he had become deeply moved to receive Lana's care for his wife.
"Your mom has been monitoring Victoria's situation ever since. She was always worried, so she was constantly pacing back and forth to your room, only to see your wife still in deep sleep."
This time Leo could no longer hold himself back, so he had returned to hug Lana who returned Leo's embrace lovingly.
"Momm, thank you .." lirih Leo, tightened his embrace to Lana's body with a full sigh.

Victoria was aghast when she realized the clock hanging on the wall had shown at three in the afternoon.
That means, after that tasteless lunch hour, he had been sound asleep for about three hours.
"Gosh ... Why did I sleep all this time? Don't-don't daddy Arshlan and mommy Lana have even arrived ..." sizzled Victoria while inching down from the bed in a hasty motion.
"Miss Victoria ..."
"Egh?" for the second time back Victoria had been surprised by the presence of a maid who was in her room, sitting quietly in the corner of the room, as if deliberately there to watch her, whether since when.
"Ruth's? Why are you here?" victoria asked as she stroked her chest, startled and a little dazed by the presence of a maid named Ruth.
"I'm sorry if my presence has surprised miss ..."
Victoria smiled as she shook her head. No, Ruth, it's okay. Now tell me why you're here. Where's Leo?"
"I was ordered by Mr. Leo to look after Miss Victoria. He said, Mr. Leo wants to go to the stables for a while ..."
Victoria's eyebrows twinkled at Ruth's explanation. "Trust me ...? But ... why did he assign you to take care of me ...?"
"Said Mr. Leo, the lady is not feeling well, so I must continue to be here while Mr. Leo is not around, considering just in case the lady needs something ..."
"No, Ruth, now I don't need anything. Go and just do your job as usual" said Victoria again with the same smile.
'After all, Leo what the hell?'
'How could the man have ordered a maid to look after me who was sleeping?'
'Am I a baby?'
'Haihh .. there-is just that!'
Victoria humbled in her heart, as a result of Leo's unmitigated recklessness.
"But miss ..."
"I want to clean myself up for a while, do you want to follow me all the way to the bathroom ...?"
Ruth looks silent, but it is seen that the woman is reluctant to leave the room and violate Leo's orders.
Seeing Ruth's gurgle like that, in the end Victoria could only throw her breath heavily.
"Huhhhfhh .. well, if you're afraid of violating your Lord Leo's orders, then you can stay in this room .." Victoria later broke up, and then, could not bear to accept the anxiety that enveloped every inch of Ruth's face, who immediately smiled with relief at Victoria's decision.
Victoria was inching down from the bed, about to go to the bathroom, when she remembered something.
"Ruth, have mommy and daddy arrived yet?"
"Already, lady, about an hour ago, just as Mr. Leo left the sleeping lady and gave me a special order to look after the lady here, that's when Mr. Arshlan and Mrs Lana arrive at the ranch."
Hearing Ruth's long and detailed explanation, had made Victoria massage her head with her mind full.
Victoria was really sorry why she had been asleep for so long, so missed the moment of the arrival of her two in-laws.
'Gosh, what was on my in-laws' minds when I found out I was just sleeping and lazing around all day ...?'
'I haven't even greeted them ...'
'Haihhh, Victoria ... Victoria ... '
Victoria stepped foot into the bathroom in the room, busy imagining the response and judgment of her parents-in-law.
