Amused giggles sounded in the café that morning. A woman patted the shoulder of the man beside her, while the victim who was hit had a sour face. He was not at all happy with the attitude of the woman who did that. Marsha, who couldn't stop laughing, rubbed her eyes that were dripping with tears from laughing too much. He also didn't even feel sorry for the other diners who seemed bothered by his shrill voice, so unpleasant to the ear in the morning. “You're just making it up anyway... laughing? You're so funny.” Leo rolled his eyes lazily, he had absolutely no interest in discussing this matter. Why did he have to tell it in detail? “This is none of your business, is it? Then why are you meddling in my affairs? Don't you want to take care of that, Lia?” Marsha, who heard that, immediately, pursed her lips spoiled. He wasn't the least bit pleased with Leo's attitude, which was always like this. With a small snort, Marsha immediately folded her arms in front of her chest and fixed her gaze on Leo. “Why? What I'm saying is the reality. Why should you be angry?” “Ah, no fun!” exclaimed Marsha, who was getting sulky. The two of them were now silent until finally Marsha sat up straight again, looking at Leo seriously. “But, about Lia, I'm still really amazed. After all, I was trying to follow him yesterday, right? Since I also have spare time. She's never been separated from somebody who… what's his name? He called Mr. June?” “Arjun?” Leo, who heard the name mentioned, raised an eyebrow. He knew that Arjuna and Dave were friends, but he felt that Lia's relationship with Arjuna was also a bit strange. Did something happen between them. Marsha nodded enthusiastically. "Yeah, he should. When I saw it first, Arjuna also seemed … protective? So, after seeing that, I decided to find another way to get close to Lia.” Curious, Leo now waited for the woman to speak. Though usually, he never felt so curious about what he was doing, as long as it didn't interfere with his plans. “What I know is that Arjuna is protective of Lia, but if at the same time Aini is disturbed, what do you think?” “You mean disturbed?” It wasn't like Leo didn't understand what Marsha was saying. In fact, he really understood. It was just that he felt a bit confused as to what he could do to interrupt it. Does it involve someone's life? ? Marsha herself understood, so she tapped her finger on her chin, seemed to think for a few moments. The two fell silent, creating a serene atmosphere that was liked by the other diners. It felt like it had been a long time since there was quiet in the café. However, of course, their hopes just vanished. It wasn't long before Marsha clapped her hands once while Leo snapped his fingers, while together they issued an exclamation indicating they had just had a brilliant idea. Some people who were drinking even almost choked. When looking at the two couples sitting side by side, a sigh replaced before they finally acted as if they didn't hear anything. Only from a distance, they can already feel not to mess with Leo. “You first, tell me what you're going to do,” Leo said before Marsha could say it. With a confident nod of her head, the woman began to elaborate on her idea. “Your attempt failed to hurt Aini last night, if that's the case… if you're the one who hates Aini, surely she won't just be quiet, right?” “There is Dave who can help Aini. What are you going to do about him?” A small grin appeared on Marsha's lips, making Leo's body shiver. What else was the woman thinking? Why can he think strange things. “Dave? That's the easiest thing ever! I'm sure there is one girl who would be pleased if asked to meet Dave. And as far as I know, the last time they met was after a fight, so he had good reason to arrest Dave, right? Dave's treatment as a man is not shown to that person, so it's only fitting that Dave accepts the punishment.” Leo's frown was instantly less severe than before. “You mean Marissa, right? If he is… I can still believe it. But, are you certain that he will comply with your wishes? I think he's busy with work. If he refuses, what will you do?” Marsha chuckled and patted Leo's shoulder playfully. “It's like you don't know me. You must already know my prowess in seducing people. Even grandparents can seduce me if it works for me!” arrogant Marsha puffed out her chest. This attitude of Marsha sometimes couldn't be understood by Leo, so he finally shook his head and took a deep breath. “Essentially, let me take care of Marissa's business, all you have to do is give me a schedule.” “You are confident that you will be successful?” Marsha stared at Leo for a few moments in disbelief. Even though they had worked together for quite a long time, how could he still not trust himself? That disappointment was etched on Marsha's face, making Leo take a deep breath. He already knew where this conversation was going, leaving him feeling tired for no reason. He also rubbed his forehead, trying to get rid of the tiredness that was in there. Finally, Leo looked at Marsha with a forced smile. “In that case, what are you going to do with Lia and Arjuna?” “Lia is easy. I'll use Salsa beforehand, so he can't go anywhere. When it comes to Salsa, I'm sure Lia won't back down and visit her best friend. From what I've seen, Salsa and Lia are already on good terms. Do you still tell him your plan?” Leo shook his head. “I already told you, for me, he is already useless. Because of that, yes, it is appropriate for him to be disposed of. Lo yourself? Why are you still close to Salsa?” “Because I know a moment like this will come, and you really need his help.” A sweet smile was etched on Marsha's face, it looked even scarier than that devilish smile. Leo's frown returned, whether it was the smile or Marsha's words. It was just that he felt sure that he was not calm. “In essence, you have to believe in me and believe in yourself.” “I believe in myself,” Leo said flatly. He really didn't need to listen to Marsha's words, he already believed in himself. Sarcasm appeared on Marsha's face. "I'm certain this time you will get, Aini. Since Hendramo started to keep you away from Aini, is it appropriate if you also keep the girl away from her father? Even though their relationship is just about to get better, huh. Hm … it's my fault looking for it because of the wrong person.” Not wanting to listen to Marsha's bullshit anymore, Leo finally got up from his seat. “I'm leaving. Everything has been discussed, right? I'll provide you the date, a week before the date I want, I'll tell you first. Make sure that Marissa can be relied upon to take care of Dave. If someone fails, I'll look for you first to be paid."

Ai ni and Salsa nodding together indicate that they don't believe it or actually don't know for sure because it hasn't been seen by their own eyes so everything feels uncertain but
