A few days later…
It's been a few days since Gretta took care of identity or Chiko got the information.
Currently, Gretta is already doing her work according to her wishes, thanks to the help of Geana, who asks an old acquaintance for help, to give Gretta the opportunity to work as a dishwasher.
Precisely the 4th day, after taking care of the identity which is not yet clear, because Chiko said he would take care of it until it was finished, himself.
The job as a dishwasher is at the request of Gretta, who wants to stay away from the crowds and work quietly.
Then Geana as a person who understands can only obey and understand the decision. Even if she wants Gretta to be a maid at the front, she can. But come on, there's no need to fuss.
Phew ..., finally finished, thought Gretta relieved.
She looked at the pile of cleaned plates, then carried them to the storage rack and arranged them.
While compiling, Gretta was reminded of when she heard that Geana had offered her a job.
Really, she was very happy when she could finally earn her own money and not bother other people anymore. Yes, although it can't be said that she can be independent, at least she will definitely get money at the end of working hours.
"Gretta. Time to rest!"
"Ah! Yes, Mrs. Rosalie's!" said Gretta was surprised, it seemed she herself was not aware of working while daydreaming.
The owner of this simple lunch then left Gretta alone, who was getting faster to clear up the other plates.
This activity was seen by a man standing and looking at Gretta with a smile in his heart while leaning his arm on the door. Until suddenly the person being looked at turned around and stared in shock at his arrival at this time.
"Eh! You here?"

Luxury Penthouse Kota M
A young man walked with hasty steps, not caring about the graduation shirt or necklace that he hadn't had time to take off, fluttering along the street, from the first time he entered the lobby of a luxurious penthouse until he arrived in front of the elevator.
His long fingers impatiently pressed the open button, while his own face tried to remain as usual, level. Yes…, even though he had a different expression when he received the news about his brother.
Ding!
His long legs stepped back in a hurry, wanting to get to the luxury residence he lived in with his brother.
He couldn't believe what he had just heard. At that time, he had just stepped off the stage to receive the award, looking around worriedly when he didn't find the existence of a grown man who had become a father and mother at the same time around the graduation room.
Then, when he saw his brother's assistant approaching him with a whisper of bad news, how could he not run off like this. Even though he looks indifferent, he still loves the only remaining family member.
Arriving at the door of his penthouse, he immediately pressed the passkey and opened it immediately.
Creak!
Brakh!
Drap! Drap! Drap!
Tap!
Arriving in front of a bedroom door that was not closed, he stood breathless and looked at a man lying on the bed worriedly.
"Elf!" he called out a little emotion, sad.
The older brother who was lying down while talking to a doctor looked at him immediately, then put on a small, reassuring smile.
"Al! You came straight here, Willy must have said something strange to you? I'm fine-
Grip!
Huh?
Instantly the older brother was stunned by what his younger brother was doing. He even swallowed back his words with wide eyelids, shocked.
"Stupid! Why do you say it's fine but your legs and head are bandaged like this?" whispered the young man called Al. "Don't leave me like this, you're the only one I have," he continued, still whispering.
The silent brother slowly reached out his hand, hugging his back when he heard the whispers of his brother who suddenly bumped into him.
He didn't know his indifferent brother could be this worried when he saw his state. He thought his little brother—Alerscha would be normal and still be a walking board when he came home. However, it was his sad face with whispers that made him even gloomy.
Pat! Pat! Pat!
"Sorry, I was not careful when driving the car and ended up like this," muttered the older brother regretfully.
Alrescha, that's right, he is the Alrescha who just graduated with the best grades and received the award as the best graduate. However, a few days ago his brother wanted him to continue studying abroad, which of course was rejected for reasons that cannot be explained.
He was worried when he heard the bad news in the form of a single accident experienced by his brother, making him feel guilty for not preventing his brother from coming to his graduation ceremony this afternoon.
If only he had strictly forbade it, maybe his brother would be fine and not hurt like this.
The doctor standing beside the two flinched slightly, when the voice of one of them was heard asking again.
"So, I can do my usual activities right, doctor?" asked Elfarebi, the older brother who was now looking at the doctor seriously.
He wanted to reassure his brother that he was okay as he was worried and the doctor explained what he was doing.
"Sir Elfa didn't get serious injuries, only on the head but not dangerous. Mr. Al takes it easy, taking regular medicine and rest will make him recover quickly."
Alrescha listened to him in silence, only nodding in understanding as the explanation was slowly conveyed to him. He turned to his brother when the man patted the back of his hand, while the doctor himself said goodbye because his job was done.
Pat!
"Then excuse me, Mr. El and Al. Don't forget to take the medicine."
"Sure, thank you, Doctor."
The doctor left the room and was escorted by a man who had just come into the room, leaving the owner of the room—Elfarebi and his brother—Alrescha.
"Hn?" Alrescha mumbled when his brother had patted the back of his hand.
"Congratulations on your graduation. However, I still force you to continue your education in America," said Elfarebi with a sweet smile when his brother just looked away.
"Hn."
"Al, do you want to hear something?" Elfarebi added when he only got a murmur from his brother.
It's just a feeling or it is, why is it that now his brother is cold again, unlike a few moments ago, which worried him.
"What?"
"It's about Gretta."
Thump!
"W-what do you mean?"
Alerescha stared at his brother with wide eyes, not believing what he was hearing at this moment.
About Gretta, someone he had told his brother a few days ago.
"Are you referring to Gretta as a granddaughter from a rich family?" Elfarebi asked instead of answering his brother's question.
Thump! Thump!
Alrescha's heart was beating wildly when his brother asked something he didn't know whether it was true or not. He really didn't know if Gretta was the granddaughter of a rich family, but he could feel her aura telling him so.
"I don't know," Alrescha whispered in frustration.
"There's going to be a business party tonight, you come and look for him at the party. Make sure it's her, but..."
"But?"
Alrescha looked at her brother who was hanging on to his words with a bad feeling. He hoped that the continuation of his brother's sentence would not contradict him.
"But if she's not there. Will you forget her?"
Thump!
