Ever since she first ca to Australia, Claire had asked Aaron about it. But the man always put it off because she was busy taking care of all the things about Claire's return to the Smith family.
"I almost forgot about that. Lucky for you to say so," Aaron replied.
"Next week, honey. I promise I'll take you there, OK?" he added.
"You have to promise , Uncle," said Claire.
Hearing that, Aaron smiled, "I promise you," he said again while nodding his head.
"Thank you, Uncle," replied Claire.
"It's late, you should sleep," Aaron said to his nephew again.
"That's right, honey. You better get so rest, you must be very tired after shopping all day," Grandma chid in.
Claire then approached her son who was still busy with the book in his hand.
"Honey..." she said touching the boy's arm.
"If you're sleepy, you can go to bed now, Mom. I'm not sleepy yet, I want to finish this book first," Dave replied as if he knew what his mother was going to say. Although the boy seed busy and indifferent to his surroundings, to be honest, he heard all their conversations.
Claire took a deep breath.
"Leave it alone, honey. I'll take care of it, leave Dave to . I'll take care of him, go to sleep," said Grandma to the woman.
"That's right, Mom. Don't worry about ."
"Hmm, fine. Then I'd like to go back to my room, don't stay up too late, honey. That's not good," Claire said then kissed her son's forehead.
Dave just nodded in agreent.

At 02.00 in the morning, to be precise in an apartnt located on the border of City J, a black car entered the basent. Followed by a woman and a man out of there. They were Byanca and Edward.
The woman walked first, leaving Edward behind. The expression on her face was very disheveled, her expression truly unsightly. Anyone who saw her could tell that she was in a very bad mood.
"Honey, wait for ," Edward shouted, following the woman.
Entering the elevator, they imdiately headed to Edward's apartnt.
Byanca slams her bag on the sofa, "Edward, what does all this an? You told that you wanted to take my revenge on Devan and his future wife, but till now you haven't done anything to them. Did you lie to ?" Byanca turned to face Edward.
"Calm yourself, honey. Don't be angry like this," Edward replied, trying to calm her down.
"How can I calm down when Claire is back in Australia? It's all because of you, Edward. You wasted too much ti, now what? We lost that damn woman," said Byanca cursing and blaming Edward.
"If I hadn't co with you to the Club today, I probably wouldn't have known about this," She added. Indeed, when she was at the Club earlier, she overheard so people talking. They said that they accidentally t the family who was going viral right now at the airport. So of them also ntioned the nas of Claire Smith and Devan Atmadja.
And it managed to make Byanca feel annoyed. Even though they had just arrived at that place, and imdiately went ho.
"It's all because of you, Edward. None of this would have happened if you hadn't kept at bay," Byanca said again, cursing the bla at the man.
"Okay, okay, I'm sorry, honey. Now calm down. If Claire is in Australia, it doesn't an we can't do anything to her. Don't worry, have you forgotten where I ca from? I could ask my dad for help, honey. Don't worry, he will help ," Edward said.
"I will not let the wedding happen, and I will avenge you, dear," he added.
"Is that true? You have to promise , Edward."
"Yes, Dear. I promise I will do anything to you, "Edward replied then hugged Byanca, stroking her back trying to calm her down.
"If you lie to , don't ever expect to see again," Byanca replied and let go of the man's embrace.
Edward just nodded slowly, "Ok, now calm down, honey."
Hearing that, Byanca smiled then looked into Edward's eyes, "You didn't forget about tomorrow's plans, did you?"
Edward took a deep breath, "Are you sure about your decision? I can take responsibility, honey. After all, it's my child, not Devan's," said Edward, trying to persuade the woman for the umpteenth ti.
Byanca shook her head, "I'm sure. I want to eliminate everything that could potentially get in the way of my plans," Byanca said, completely unconcerned about Edward's feelings.
"You promised to accompany , have you changed your mind?"
"No, I just… ah never mind. I'm tired, I want to rest first," Edward said then walked away from Byanca, towards the bedroom.
"Tomorrow, I will accompany you," he added again before disappearing behind the door.
Seeing the man's attitude, Byanca frowned. 'What a weirdo,' she thought and threw herself on the sofa.
