Aaron and Daniel sat on the sofa side by side looking at Eleanor who was telling a long story about what happened to her relationship with her fiancé which ended this morning, where she threw away Steven Dawkins' diamond ring because she saw her fiancé sleeping with another woman.

"Did Thomas already know?" Asked Aaron quietly.

​​

"Not yet. Aaron. If he knows, then I will definitely be killed by him sob sob," replied Elea, still crying.

"You have to tell your brother, Elea. After all, Thomas has to know what's going on. You can't be like this forever, you have a brother that you can talk to and share with.

I can't help you much because I'm an outsider, I'm not from the Hoover family. Even though we are close, I can't do much to Steven," Aaron said softly, refusing Elea's previous request to imprison Steven and his mistress.

Crash!

Instead of saying yes to Aaron's gentle words, Elea threw away the flower vase on the table and immediately made the flower vase fall apart on the floor.

"My father helped your company a lot when it was almost bankrupt, now when I ask for help, you don't want to help me. You really don't know how to thank you Aaron's !!!" Elea shouted loudly at Aaron, her eyes were red and wide open when she spoke like that to Aaron.

"I know, Uncle Samuel has helped me a lot in the past Elea. But still I can't do much, it's your family problem Elea. I'm just an outsider, I can't immediately take action like that. I don't want to be seen as stepping over Uncle Samuel and Thomas, your brother, "Aaron replied quietly trying to be patient.

"Come on, Aaron, you talk too much, if you really don't want to help me, don't be a lot of excuses. I hate you !!" Elea shouted loudly.

After saying that Elea then ran out of Aaron's office. She immediately got into the elevator without returning the greetings from Aaron's employees who happened to run into her in front of the elevator.

Daniel just shook his head slowly seeing Elea's behavior, he really did not think that Thomas's sister could act like that. Even though all this time Elea, whom she knew was a gentle, kind and obedient girl, this time all the images of Elea's kindness disappeared when he saw her rude attitude.

"Elea has been too spoiled since she was a child and it's only natural that her character is like that," Aaron said quietly, smiling at Daniel as if he knew what Daniel was thinking at the moment.

"Great you can know what's in my head sir," replied Daniel quickly.

"From the look on your face I can read what's on your mind, so don't ever think badly about me. Because I can know without having to ask you directly," Aaron said quietly.

Daniel just laughed at Aaron's words, he knew that what Aaron was actually saying was just a joke, but he was happy when Aaron had started bragging himself like that.

"What are you going to do, Boss?" Asked Daniel curiously when he saw Aaron reach for his cell phone, sometimes when he was alone Daniel liked to call Aaron as boss but in front of people, he would call Aaron as Sir. Even though Aaron actually preferred Daniel to call his name without frills or any appendage.

"I have to talk to Thomas, he has to know what happened to Elea and Steven," Aaron replied briefly, showing his cell phone who was calling Thomas. They had been friends since they were in elementary school.

"I see." Daniel nodded his head with a smile seeing what Aaron was doing.

Not long after, Aaron finally connected with Thomas, who was currently on vacation in Italy with his women, Aaron told what had just happened in his office where Elea cried and told about the failure of her relationship with Steven.

Thomas, who was actually making love with the two models he was sponsoring, immediately got up from the bodies of the models, he sat on the sofa and listened to all Aaron's explanations. He looked very angry when he found out that his favorite sister was betrayed by her fiancé.

"I'm going back to London this afternoon, pick me up at airport Aaron," said Thomas coldly as soon as Aaron talked at length.

"Ok, just tell me your flight departure schedule," Aaron replied curtly.

Aaron then put his cell phone back on the table and lay down on his work chair again while closing his eyes, knowing that bad things had happened to Elea made Aaron really uneasy.

He could not possibly be silent when he saw Elea get such unfair treatment from Steven, therefore he immediately contacted his friend Thomas to tell him what happened to Elea.

Aaron already considered Elea to be his own younger sister. Being born an only child had made Aaron really loved Elea, who grew up together from childhood with Thomas before their family moved to Newcastle-upon-Tyne, when Aaron and Thomas entered junior high school.

"While waiting for Mr. Thomas to arrive in London, we better have lunch first, boss, remember you have an ulcer that cannot be taken lightly," Daniel said quietly reminding Aaron to have lunch because it was already half past one in the afternoon.

"I have no appetite, Daniel, there are problems that come. It's really confusing me," Aaron replied briefly.

Daniel immediately got up from his chair and approached Aaron. He then grabbed the master's hand and pulled him up forcefully. One thing that Daniel had memorized was that when Aaron had a problem, he would not have an appetite. So he immediately acted quickly because he didn't want Aaron to go back to the hospital.

Aaron who had been forced by Daniel could only surrender, he walked slowly behind Daniel to the elevator. Usually to save time Aaron would choose to eat at the company canteen, mingling with other employees.
