nWhile in Ireland, Edward could only keep quiet and cover his ears to see the fight after the argument that happened because Isabel and Gabriella always wanted to be the first, he chose to play a game with his friends on the beach with Sarah who kept trying to get close to him.

nSarah was still trying to get back to Edward again even though Edward turns her down over and over every time Sarah started talking and talking about their relationship.

n

"I don't know what to do with it. I thank you Madame, we really can't reply to you and Sir,

" Professor Gilbert said quietly when he arrived at the airport lobby.

n

"Never mind, sir, don't continue to discuss it. This is a gift from my husband for the hard work of fellow UAL students, so you don't need to talk like that, Prof.,

" replied Steffi softly.

n

"Mr. Ganke is very fortunate to have a wife as good and smart as you. Madame, you two are such a good match,

" said Professor Gilbert sincerely.

nSteffi just smiled at Professor Gilbert's praise. A moment later a limo car stopped in front of Steffi and Professor Gilbert and Leon got out of the car. He wanted to show how harmonious his household was with Steffi to many people, seeing her husband come to pick up Steffi was immediately excited.

nTwo days apart from Leon made her uneasy, but this time she was very happy because her husband was by her side again. Seeing the harmonious relationship of Leon and Steffi made Professor Gilbert touched, he did not expect that he would still see someone as successful and rich as Leonardo Ganke like that in his wife.

nAfter saying goodbye, Steffi left Professor Gilbert for the hotel, she sat against Leon's arm.

n

"I miss you, Leon,

" said Steffi spoiled.

n

"Me to,

" Leon replied briefly.

n

"What were you doing for two days in London, Dear?

" Steffi asked again.

n

"You will know in a moment, you will be happy and wear this blindfold. Because this is part of the surprise I prepared for you,

" Leon replied quietly while giving Steffi a black eye mask which he just took out from his shirt pocket.

nWithout speaking, Steffi grabbed the eye patch given by her husband, she then used it quickly without saying much. Leon then asked the driver who was driving the luxury car to increase speed.

nAfter Leon and Steffi left, one by one the students left the airport, including Professor Gilbert who was picked up by his wife and children. They all went home to their respective homes, but not with Edward.

nHe was still sitting in the airport waiting room, Edward was still enjoying a cup of black coffee waiting for his family driver to pick him up. Because currently Edward's parents are away on vacation, they go to Paris to attend the wedding of one of his business partners.

nAs a result, at this time his mansion is quiet, when his family left Edward would be very excited and immediately invite his friends to party. But this time everything felt empty, he didn't have the slightest intention to party.

n

"What happened to me.

" Edward muttered softly, feeling that something was wrong with him.

nHis eyes were still staring intently at his cell phone screen which displayed Anne's cell phone number which he got from Professor Gilbert two days ago, even though he had already got Anne's cellphone number, but Edward had not contacted her.

nHe still felt uncomfortable if he suddenly contacted Anne without any important business, Edward did not want Anne to think nonsense about him. That's why he refrained from contacting Anne, normally his cell phone never stopped ringing because of the many sexy girls calling him, but this time it didn't happen at this time.

nThe reason was that since two days ago Edward had blocked all the numbers of the beautiful girl who often bothered him, he even asked his subordinates for help to block more than a hundred numbers of beautiful girls on his phone list.

nSo now his cell phone looked like a new cell phone, but he was actually happy that it happened. He felt much calmer and more comfortable without the annoyance of those talkative girls who were hungry for praise.

nWhile Edward was still enjoying his coffee, soon afterwards, Oliver, the Cole family driver came running.

n

"S-sorry young master, I'm late,

" said Oliver stammered with fear.

n

"No problem, let's go home. Please bring my suitcase, Oliv,

" said Edward briefly as he got up from his chair.

nInstead of doing what the master ordered, Oliver fell silent. He did not believe seeing the young master as good as that, even though usually if he was a little late to pick up Edward, he would be furious. But this time he was nearly twenty minutes late, the master did not say anything.

n

"Oliv.

" Edward shouted for the driver who was still frozen.

nThe sound of a scream from Edward made Oliver wake up from his reverie, he immediately grabbed the suitcase that was in front of his eyes and ran behind Edward to the parking area where his car was.

nUsing the black car Edward went home to his big house with Oliver who brought the car, he sat in the backseat staring at the window without making a sound.

nHe really looked like someone else right now and maybe if other people who knew him would be surprised to see him being quiet like this, including Oliver who had been asking himself what had happened to the master to become this quiet.

nBecause he didn't want to look for trouble, finally Oliver returned to focus on driving a car, he didn't want to disturb the young master.

nMeanwhile, on Compton Avenue, Steffi looked standing with teary eyes in front of a luxurious house in the elite residential complex, apparently Leon asked her to close her eyes because he wanted to show that he had bought a luxury house in London.

nLeon said that he was going to start a new business in London so he needed a house to live in, at first Steffi was very happy when she saw the big house.

nBut suddenly she became afraid when she heard Leon say that they will live in London forever, living forever in London means they will often meet Marianne who is currently studying at the UAL campus which is Leon's corporate partner.

n

"Come on in, you have to see the inside of this house, Steffi,

" Leon said excitedly as he walked into his new house.

n

"You're sure we're going to stay here Leon asked Stevie. For the umpteenth time.

n

" Very sure that besides I've paid the full payment for this house I've also asked the people in Germany to prepare all the important things I need,

"replied Leon quickly.

n

"What do you mean by the things you need?

" Asked Steffi quickly.

n

"Ok, since you already asked then I will answer it right now. So I've decided I want to expand our animation company business in UK, so I need some important files from Germany to reference when opening a new animation company in London.

nTherefore right now the team of lawyers and the best people in the office are preparing everything to be brought to London,

" Leon replied excitedly.

n

"No, Leon, I do not agree that you move to London. Don't we already have a house in Berlin and your company is progressing greatly there, I don't want you to start again in another country Leon.

nWe already have everything in Berlin, why should we start again from scratch in a new country where we don't necessarily know what success will be like? Isn't it much better for us to develop the existing one now than to start over from scratch, Leon?

" said Steffi aloud, she did not agree with her husband's plan to open a new animation company in London.

nHearing Steffi's words made Leon laugh out loud, she then folded his arms across his chest and glared at Steffi.

n

"If you don't want to stay here I won't force you, Steff, you can go back to Berlin and live there. Later when I miss you maybe I'll come home once a month, otherwise you can come here,

" Leon said quickly without guilt.

n

"No, I don't want to do that. Don't expect me to be apart from you Leon, I'm your wife we have to live together,

" said Steffi full of emotion, her breath fluctuating because she was really angry right now

n

"Well if you don't want to live in Berlin then as a good wife. you're supposed to ...

n

"Tell them you're here because you want to approach Marianne back instead, you want to approach your ugly ex-wife again instead of Leon,

" said Steffi quickly interrupted Leon.
