I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Rose's surprise hadn't diminished when she was again surprised by several maids who came from behind and giving her red roses.

"Lily-Rose Joseph, will you have a perfect life with me?"

Aaron proposed to Rose again by giving her an oval diamond-studded ring, while kneeling.

Rose opened her mouth wide. She didn't expect Aaron to propose to her again with a ring. 

"I'm confused, Aaron," Rose answered quietly.

"Why are you confused?" Aaron asked again, lifting his face towards Rose. 

Rose handed the red roses in her arms to Aaron's maids again and knelt down in front of Aaron. "I'm confused whether to put this ring myself or you put it."

Aaron's eyes widened completely at Rose's words. "So you accept me?"

"Yes."

"Rose!!!"

Aaron screamed loudly while hugging Rose. Because Rose couldn't hold Aaron's weight, in the end they both fell on the floor and made the maids scream hysterically out of happiness. Daniel, who was about to report his findings, suddenly froze when he saw his master lying on top of Rose on the floor in front of all the maids. He scratched his head that didn't itch as he watched the pair of lovebirds intoxicated with romance. 

Not wanting to disturb them, Daniel chose to enter the room he used to use when staying at Aaron's house. He didn't want to spoil Aaron's mood with the bad news he got about the person behind Rose's dismissal from his workplace. Daniel was sure that Aaron would be furious when he found out that it was Candice Skyriver who was the mastermind behind Rose's dismissal from Famous media.

< Luxembourg >

Because Anne was still sulking, Alan can't sleep in the same bed with his wife. He was forced to sleep alone because Anne chose to sleep with Alice, her new friend from Switzerland. 

"It's almost 3 in the morning, sir, don't you want to sleep?" Nicholas asked quietly to Alan, who was still sitting in front of the guest room that Alice and Anne used to sleep.

"I'll wait for my wife to come out," Alan replied curtly.

"But Madam must have been sleeping. It's almost morning, sir."

Alan immediately turned to Nicholas with a murderous look. "If you want to sleep, then go to sleep, I can be here waiting alone. After all, there is this Erick who accompanies me." 

Nicholas immediately turned to Erick, who was already sitting with his eyes closed. "No, I'm not sleepy yet. I'm just worried about you, sir." Nicholas argued. He was not willing that Alan was only accompanied by his new rival, Erick, who was clearly flying the war flag at him to fight over Alan. 

"Well then, let's just play cards to kill time, Master," Nicholas said excitedly.

One of Alan's eyebrows rose. "Playing cards?"

"Yes sir."

"Okay then, but wake up this Erick. It won't be fun that only both of us playing." 

Nicholas growled. "With Erick too? But it's more fun if it's just the two of us, sir."

"We play with Erick or not at all!!" Alan snapped threatening Nicholas.

Having no other choice, Nicholas finally forced to wake up Erick who was fast asleep, even though he really hated Erick. If it wasn't for the master who didn't want to play cards alone. He finally woke up the man who had been fast asleep since 2 hours ago, even though in reality Erick wasn't really sleeping. He had only closed his eyes without actually sleeping. Erick continued to listen to the master's chatter as he continued to grumble because his wife was sleeping with Alice. Erick chose to stay awake to treat his longing by listening to the master's voice which he had been searching for these past two years. 

After successfully waking up Erick, the three of them then played cards together. At first, it was awkward for Nicholas who already considered Erick as an enemy. However, after they played cards for the third round, the atmosphere began to melt, especially when they started placing money as bets. Even though it was only small sum of money, it managed to get all three excited to play cards until the sun was about to rise. The three of them had just slept together on the feather rug which was placed right in front of the door of the room where Anne and Alice slept. 

The maids, who started working in the morning, were surprised when they saw the young master with his assistant and guest were sleeping in front of the room, hugging each other. None of them dared to disturb or make a sound. Even Noah, who was the butler, did not dare to comment. Instead, he ordered the maids not to clean the hallway where the young master was currently sleeping. He knew exactly what caused his young master to sleep in front of the room. 

Meanwhile, Anne and Alice, who continued to chat until morning, were also just sleeping when the sun began to appear. Both of them talked at length after not seeing each other for almost two years. Alice told about what Erick had done over the past two years, including his efforts to defend Muller Finance International from Edmund and Johnny, two people who had always targeted Jack's position as the legal owner of Muller Finance International. 

"When he got a call from you, Erick immediately started crying, Anne. His cries were even louder than when he found out that Mr. Jack was declared dead in the English Channel. He repeatedly asked me to pinch him just to make sure he wasn't dreaming that Mr. Jack is still alive, I just didn't expect that Erick would react like that. He is so loyal to Master," said Alice quietly, as she was about to fall asleep. 

Anne smiled at Alice's words. She knew that Erick would never betray Jack even though he was in control of Muller Finance International for the past two years. However, a little question remained about why Edmund and his father Johnny were still after Jack's property, even though they clearly had nothing to do with Jack. At this point, Anne finally understood that money would drive anyone crazy and acted recklessly, just like Stefi and Selma, who had stabbed her in the back, for money, position, and popularity. But after getting to know Erick, Alice, Luis, and Nicholas, who were very loyal to their respective masters, Anne finally realized that there were still good people out there. 

"Thank you for not leaving me alone, God, thank you for returning Jack to me. Even though I was actually hoping for a more beautiful meeting than this, I believe you must have other reasons for our meeting," said Anne quietly before finally falling asleep, following Alice, who had already sailed into the dreamland.

< Findel Airport, Luxembourg >

The plane carrying Leon and Wayne finally arrived in Luxembourg. Wayne, who was going to Germany, chose to take Leon to Luxembourg first because he didn't want to let his master to fly to Luxembourg alone. 

"I'm coming, Marianne. I can definitely find you in this city. Your husband is coming, Marianne," Leon said confidently. He was sure he could find Anne in Luxembourg, which was smaller than London.
