Aini and Lia, who were chatting together, were shocked when they saw two men coming towards them. Not only that, the look they gave seemed to say they were sad about something. Obviously, this made Aini and Lia exchange confused glances, asking in their telepathy what really happened. Not only that, but the fact that Dave arrived at the campus made Lia feel something was wrong. By himself, he immediately stood in front of Aini. 
“Why?” asked Lia curtly to Dave who walked in front, leaving Arjuna who seemed to be stumbling. He hurriedly looked at the man behind him, how could he act like this? Did he deliberately bring Dave before Aini? Lia couldn't stop thinking about this man at all. 
“Just wanted to see for a while,” insisted Dave, who was trying to pass Lia. However, it was certain that that one woman would absolutely not let Dave pass. Aini herself could only stare confused, not knowing what to do in a problem like this. 
"I said no, yes no! Don't you understand at that time? Still a child who has to be taught to use words?!”
“Lia, just let it be,” interrupted Arjuna, who put his hand on Lia's shoulder. However, Lia quickly brushed her hand away, as if there was something she was trying to protect. “What makes you ….”
“If this is Aini's problem, you don't need to extend it, can you?”
Instantly, Lia's tone became colder than before. He even lowered his head for a few moments before he looked up and shot the two men with murderous eyes. It was clear this gaze shocked the two of them, so they took a step back, feeling a bit frightened by what they were seeing. Is this really the Lia they know? How could his aura change so quickly? 
However, before Lia could throw her fist at one of the men in front of her, Aini had stopped Lia by placing her hand where Arjuna had previously placed it. Surprised and thinking it was the same person, Lia decided to hold the hand tightly only to find that it belonged to Aini. A sigh of relief came out, and he also let go of her grip. 
Knowing that everything was fine, finally Aini walked, so she could stand beside her best friend. Lia herself knows that Aini has forced her will, so she can't fight against herself either. Finally, he snorted a little and averted his eyes. There, Aini stood with slightly flushed cheeks, it was obvious that it was a sign of being hit by someone with quite a lot of force. 
Dave, who saw that, felt panic and rushed to check if anything had happened to Aini. He also remembered how Aini came to the office with a bruised cheek. It was clear that Hendramo had the courage to use his powers, even though Aini was his child. Things like this will not be left alone by Dave. In his heart, he had sworn that he would make Hendramo pay for what he was doing now. 
“This is not a big deal. It doesn't hurt at all. Again, Lia has helped me to take care of her,” said Aini with a big smile. It is clear that he does not hold grudges against his father, who even plays rough with him. This made the two men even more angry. 
“Tonight…,” started Arjuna suddenly. Everyone present glanced at him, surprised that Arjuna started the conversation first. “Can you stay at Lia's place tonight?”
“Eh? Why?” This question was accompanied by a slightly tilted head by Aini. He felt confused and also did not understand what was going on here. “I'm really okay, sir. If it's just a bruise like this….”
Aini has not been able to continue what she said, suddenly Dave cut her off in a firm tone. “Today Leo came here. He threatens Arjuna and says that there is violence in the apprentice's environment. Meaning, he is also trying to accuse my company.”
The four people who were there fell silent with Dave's explanation. Each of them had a different response after hearing it. Aini who was shocked and angry, Lia who felt confused, while Arjuna could only take a deep breath because Dave was so frontal. The person who told that himself was also silent, not because he was holding back his anger but was cursing himself. How could he say that so easily? 
His words must have added to the burden on Aini's mind, it was all clearly seen in the look on the woman's face, which was half down so that her hair covered her slightly bruised cheek. None of them could hear what she was saying, but they all felt certain that Aini was trying to mutter something. Until finally, they were surprised by Lia's loud voice. He couldn't stand this situation anymore. 
“If you already know the problem, why are you here?!” he cried, which made Aini raise her head confused. What is Lia doing? "You guys, right? Do you lose the same throne and money? What do you want to do to open a business like that?”
“Lilia, this doesn't seem like….” Aini, who was trying to stop her best friend, received a sharp look, so she decided to stay aside and listen. 
“Aini is in danger because of somebody like Leo, right? If so, kill! Slaughter him and don't make him act again! You don't need to tell me, I'll take Aini home tonight!”
Suddenly, Lia pointed her finger at Arjuna, as if she wanted to insult the man as someone who was stupid. Surprised, Arjuna could only gape and glance at Dave and ask the man for help. Unfortunately, he seems to have been influenced by Lia's words and now his facial expression seems to show a new determination. A weak sigh escaped Arjuna. 
“Then, Lia, please take care of Aini, okay?” Arjuna gave a small smile, making Lia herself surprised when she saw him. He paused and stared at that smile like there was no tomorrow. “Lia? Is there any problem?”
“H-huh? No! No problem.” he cried hastily. “Do you promise to make Leo pay for all his actions?”
Arjuna nodded his head before trying to take Dave away. “Oh, one more. I heard from Dave that your wedding date is set? End of year, huh? Take it easy, Aine. A boy like him can't touch you. So, you don't have to think of a way to go. Just muster up your strength to survive.”
“You mean the wedding date?” Lia, who had not heard of it at all, looked at the two men who seemed to be fighting on the way before glancing at Aini. Now he understands why Aini got scolded and beaten like this by her father. It must be because of the marriage. “I'm sorry, I don't even know at all.”
“Not like that. I just don't want you to think. In detail, I'll tell you right at your house, okay? There are many things I want to say about Leo these days, too.”
“Aini,” Lia called suddenly. "Just calm down. I'll make sure that Leo doesn't touch you until the wedding date comes.”
