Aeleasha's face showed disappointment. The explanation given by the woman before him who spoke honestly like what Rafael had said a few days ago, made him uneasy.
How can he calm down if the problem is that the woman is actually liking another man who is none other than his own lecturer.
Even Aeleasha was worried that Rafael was going into the same hole for the second time,.
This time, he wanted to make sure Rafael was happy with the woman in front of him.
As before, he had discussed with Arsenio about the relationship Rafael is currently living.
Arsenio plans to trap Rafael by giving him stimulants to smooth the man's relationship. The plan will be implemented when the wedding is held.
However, hearing the explanation from Alesha at this time, it makes Aeleasha think she will approve the idea of her husband giving stimulants because there is no other way to unite them.
“Alesha, despite your marriage due to a contract, I am sure there will be love that appears after that.”
“Cannot be. I ... love another man and it seems .. If it wasn't for this marriage, I would have been able to come back with him,” explained Alesha about her feelings.
“Good. No problem with your decision. Only, a contract like that must be done so as not to harm one of the parties. Are contracts not made for mutual benefit? So, Rafael must also get what he has given you.”
“I understand about it. I will continue my contract with marriage. It's just that, the decision for how long to stay in the contract, we are still talking about.” Alesha spoke with a tone full of doubt.
Because his heart is upset when every day get an appeal from Alex. Alesha always rejected Alex, but her heart could not lie if she really wanted her former sugar daddy.
Despite knowing that the arrival of this leg had absolutely no impact on Rafael's relationship, Aeleasha still would not give up on uniting the two of them. “Yes, you guys do need to talk to each other. I'm sure, you guys have a way out.”
“Sorry, I can't attend the dinner at Rafael's house My mother's condition is on the decline and needs me here.”
“No problem. Isn't it important we've met now.” Aeleasha hid the disappointment by commenting on the smile and gently touching the back of the woman's hand. "You're a good woman."
“You don't know me very well yet, but I didn't expect you'd be this good to me.” Alesha actually feels not worth it if she is married to the beautiful woman because it looks very good and beautiful.
“I feel I have a debt to Rafael, but it all paid off when he received the company my husband gave me. Besides, I also want to see him happy with his choice.”
Aeleasha now just continued her words inwardly. 'I wish you were the one.'
“Unfortunately I can't give that happiness.” Alesha immediately replied because she did not have any feelings for Rafael because the relationship between them was only a mere agreement.
Aeleasha was forced to smile, though inwardly feeling very disappointed by the woman's reply. However, it is impossible to force Rafael to accept because he thinks that love cannot be forced, so he feels there is no other choice but to leave everything to his husband.
Half an hour had passed, they had finished with a brief meaningful conversation.
After saying goodbye, Aeleasha returned to her home, while Alesha returned to the patient's room to accompany her mother.
Just got to her mother's room. His phone is now ringing and displaying Alex's name there. He remembered Alex who had been waiting in the parking lot for a few hours.
“Where are you?” ask Alex across the phone.
“In hospital. My mother's condition is much more important at this time.”
Hearing Alesha's reasoning, made Alex pause for a moment. It doesn't matter if the reason is because of the mother. Lucky not to say if the main reason for leaving is Rafael.
Alex releases Alesha this time, and she hangs up the phone call after talking for a while.

Meanwhile, Aeleasha had just arrived home and was immediately greeted with hugs by her husband and son.
Even a gentle kiss was also launched to welcome Arsenio's most beloved woman.
“What's up? Why does your face look moody, honey?” asked Arsenio who realized something was wrong.
Aeleasha now landed her body violently on the sofa and held her son who approached her. "Rafael, I think he'll be back in the same hole. I just met that woman and all I got was a bitter reality."
"Honey, your plan to unite them with stimulant drugs, looks like we should give the drug to both.”
Hearing the changed plan, Arsenio immediately nodded.
“Good. So, we're really going to bring them together because of the cure. You stupid Rafael. Why does she like heartache so much?” said Arsenio who is now just a head bobble to hear all the stories of the wife.
Meanwhile, Aeleasha simply sniffed her shoulders. “Entahlah. I don't want him to be sad and wait any more. I want to see her happy, Honey.”
"I see, he has sacrificed a lot for us. Now we will give real life for him.”
“You're right, let alone Rafael already not a poor man, he has it all. Company to department.” Now Arsenio is very happy because the wife no longer forbids.
“Yes. I support you, Honey.” Aeleasha is now unable to think of any other way to get Rafael to unite with Alesha.
After that conversation. They enjoy being together at home.

While on the other side. Rafael has just finished his work.
Now he decides to go to Alesha's hospital and make sure she's okay.
Trying to ignore his current feelings, Rafael drives quickly to the hospital, where Alesha's mother is being treated.
Arriving at the hospital, Rafael sees Alesha asleep on the sofa as usual. Luckily he brought food for Alesha because it is certain that the woman has not eaten anything at this time.
“Alesha .. I bring food. We better eat together.”
"Rafael, you're coming." Alesha needs time to wake up from her sleep. "You from earlier?”
“No, just arrived. Come, eat!”
The dinner made someone peek out from behind the glass at the entrance.
“Your ex-wife is coming.”
Hearing Alesha say that, made Rafael stop his eating activities.
“What are you guys talking about?”
“Not much. She is a friendly woman and also very gentle. I could have spoken casually this afternoon. He also told me about our contract marriage.”
Rafael scratched his non-itchy head. Then his eyes looked at the woman in front of him at this moment. Rafael awaits the next sentence from Alesha about the meeting this afternoon.
“Hey, why are you like that? Take it easy, nothing happened between us. We were just talking about his life in New York.” Alesha chuckled amusedly at the worried facial expression of Rafael.
“Really? Aeleasha is like that.” Rafael only answered briefly because it felt very strange to discuss with the woman before him.
“Do you still love him?” alesha asked who was now staring intensely at Rafael's handsome face.
That question really stabbed Rafael. “Is the answer you still need? That's something that doesn't matter to you at all.
Realizing her stupid question, Alesha shook her head. “No, stop. I won't discuss it anymore.”
Until the late dinner is over. Raphael said goodbye and returned to his home.
The man's attitude made Alesha think about her true feelings.
Just as Alesha wanted to justify the mother's blanket, Alex's voice shocked her and pulled the man out of her mother's room.
“Alex! What are you doing here?”
“Did you forget? This afternoon you left me alone in the parking area.” Alex spoke in a stifled tone of voice as he did not want his annoyance to stir up at the hospital and annoy other patients.
“It's your own fault! Why are you waiting for me?” alesha answered flatly and pursed her lips in annoyance.
Alex, who now wants to make Alesha honest with him, now says briefly. “I'm waiting for my lover!”
“I'm not your lover, Alex!” Alesha even massaged the temple hearing Alex's answer.
The debate just happened, until Alesha finally decided to take Alex out of the hospital area. Now they are in a fast food restaurant that is open twenty-four hours.
“Alex, what made you come?”
“I told you, everything about you, makes me uneasy. Quickly explain to me about our previous relationship. Then, what happened to you not wanting to be with me anymore?”
“Nothing I can explain at this time. I don't want to ruin any other relationship.”
Alex still looks to force Alesha. Curiosity about their past, makes Alex unable to sleep peacefully.
“Good. Maybe not now. Or I could just find out to someone else.”
Alesha did not reply, now her body moved wanting to leave the man.
He really can't stay around Alex for too long. His feelings get stronger if he continues to be with the man.
Alesha said goodbye, but her hand was grabbed and pulled back by Alex. The man did not let go of Alesha, forcing her to get into the car and take her away from there.
“Alex! Back to the hospital!”
“Not before you tell about what happened to us.”
Alesha went silent again, until she finally started to voice about the painful past.
“Alex, back then, someone was trying to separate us. At first I didn't have any feelings for you."
"The opposite is true as well. Even you are a stiff man who doesn't care about me. Until finally this relationship made me realize about the feelings that are growing more and more. Me ...“
“Who? Who's planning on separating us?”
"I can't say it because and you better find out for yourself!" said Alesha now stood up and left the man who always managed to overturn his feelings.
