"Hungry?" asked Devan while swinging the box in his hand. It seemed that the man had just entered the house.
Devan then walked to Anna, then pulled the woman into the kitchen, and sat her on the dining table chair.
"Wait a minute," said Devan, entering the kitchen and serving the food he had just ordered in front of Anna.
"For you, eat. You must be hungry," Devan said and sat down next to Anna.
See! Even Devan seemed to understand more about herself than the woman.
"Thank you," Anna muttered.
Devan just nodded in response.
After that, they began to eat the food that was served in front of them.
Now and then Devan takes several types of food for Anna or just invites her to make small talk.
....
Far behind Devan's house, a one-story building with white tones on all the walls.
Someone just opened the door and walked in.
"Are you awake?" Hendra asked when he saw Lukman who was already sitting on the edge of the bed.
The man just nodded without looking at the source of the voice.
"How are things outside?" Lukman asked after a few minutes of silence.
"It is conducive and Javier's family has left," Hendra replied.
"Looks like your mask cracked from the punches of his men," he added then chuckled.
Yes, the building is a house that Devan has dedicated to the three of them, Lukman, Hendra, and Deden.
Those who were spoken to just sighed harshly, "I'm not ready at all and they've attacked me suddenly," Lukman replied.
He slowly rubbed different parts of his neck, and when he found something he pulled until something like skin lifted.
Lukman continued to do this until the object slipped from his face and revealed a very young and handsome face.
Yes, that is his real face. While working at Devan's house he only disguised himself using a middle-aged leather mask. Not only Lukman but Hendra or Deden are also not much different from him. What the three of them have shown so far is just a gimmick so that their disguise is not detected by others.
"Hmm, that's right. It's broken and can't be used anymore," Lukman muttered, throwing the thing onto the nightstand.
Seeing this, Hendra smiled, in one hand there was a glass of wine. Even though it was still light outside and the man had been drinking alcohol.
"What did Nr. Does Devan say? He must be angry because I didn't guard the gate properly," he asked as he raised his head and looked at Hendra.
"No, you're wrong. Mr. Devan didn't say anything. He just asked me to take you back to rest," answered Hendra.
"Is that true?"
Hendra nodded. They were then silent, busy with their thoughts.
"Max," Hendra called while looking at the man who was still sitting on the bed.
(Remember Lukman's real name is Max)
Hearing his name being called, the man raised his eyes. Yes, they would only mention each other's names if they were in the house, not outside.
"Aren't you curious as to why Javier's people roam this country?" asked Hendra.
"Maybe looking for something? Or find a new target?" Lukman replied.
Hearing Max's answer, Hendra was silent for a moment.
"They're looking for Miss Anna."
"Ha?"
"Don't tell me that Miss Anna is Javier's new target?" Hendra guessed immediately got up from his position, walked closer to where Max was.
"Tsk, what do you mean? Javier never targeted someone like her," Max replied.
"That's what I mean, maybe there are some things we don't know about Miss Anna. But not with them," said Hendra guessing.
"But, if it has anything to do with them. Why didn't Mr. Devan tell us?"
"Hmm, I don't think Mr. Devan knows this either," replied Hendra.
"Never mind, you should rest. We'll see how it goes from today because I'm very sure that they will come again," added Hendra.
"Okay. Then get out. I want to sleep, it's been a long time since I last had a nap."
"It's late, Max."
"Whatever, get out quickly," he added.
Hendra who heard that just chuckled and left Max's room. Walked into the living room while sipping the wine in his hand.
He put the glass on the table there then enter another room.
Inside there are lots of monitors, there are CCTV recordings at Mr. Devan's house, both inside and in the yard. Yes, except in the man's bedroom and study. Because it is Mr. Devan's privacy.
And Devan installed the CCTV and asked his subordinates to monitor it if something went wrong.
It's been almost two weeks, Hendra didn't check it, because everything seemed normal and safe as usual.
And since today there was a bit of chaos, he decided to check it out.
The slightly dusty chair indicated that the room had been untouched for a long time.
Hendra left the room door open just like that so the room was not stuffy.
Playing CCTV footage one by one while leaning back on the chair.
Until thirty minutes had passed, Hendra sped up the recording because he was a little bored. But that doesn't mean it applies to all records.
There are times when Hendra slows down the playback just to see Mr. Devan and Miss Anna.
"Why are you smiling to yourself?"
Suddenly Max entered the room making Hendra startled and immediately speed up the recording.
"I thought you were asleep," replied Hendra.
"Sure, just ten minutes and get up again," Max said.
"You got something?" the man asked again.
"Ah no, just as usual. Only Mr. Devan's daily activities" replied Hendra.
"Looks like Mr. Devan has feelings for Miss Anna," Max muttered after a few minutes of silence.
Hendra did not respond to the man's words and only nodded faintly.
"Too bad Mr.Devan will marry another woman," added Max again sitting in the chair next to Hendra.
"We have no right to comment on his life. Watch your words," said Hendra.
Those who were spoken to only shrugged their shoulders seemed reluctant to reply to Hendra's sentence.
After that, they were both silents. There was no more sound, and only silence filled the room. Both Hendra and Max, relaxed on the chairs with their eyes fixed on the monitor screen in front of them.
But only for a few minutes, suddenly both of them got up and took an upright position at the same time.
"W-what did I just see?" Hendra stuttered suddenly turned his face towards Max.
"That's Miss Byanca, right? Mr. Devan's fiancé?" Max replied while pointing at the screen.
Hendra who was still looking at Max slowly turned his head towards the screen.
