Chapter 218 - Feeling Awry
Luna woke up when she heard the sound of Keenan and Keyra crying, she immediately got out of bed, walked out of the guest room which led directly to the living room.
Luna saw Ethan was trying to calm Keyra down, while Keenan was also crying in Anna's arms. The young mother approached her husband and children with a sluggish look on her face because she was still a little dizzy.
"Why are they getting cranky?" Luna took Keenan from Anna's arms.
"Maybe they want breastmilk, I tried to give formula milk, they refused," said Anna.
Ethan glanced at Luna who was still weak. "You eat first, Anna, and I will calm them down for a while," he exclaimed.
Luna sighed, just remembered that she hadn't eaten rice this morning. If she forces breastfeeding now, her baby will not get nutrition.
"Okay, I'll eat for a moment." Luna walked into the dining room. when she arrived immediately took a serving of rice with chicken soup which had a lot of mixed vegetables in it too, because some people said that if the woman is breastfeeding, they should eat lots of vegetables.

Sarah met Mike at the apartment, she walked at a brisk pace to the elevator and pressed the button that pointed to the floor of Mike's apartment unit.
When the elevator opened, she happened to immediately see that Mike was about to enter the elevator.
"Sarah."
Plakk....
Sarah immediately slapped Mike and glared at him. "Why did you turn the evidence over to the police? Do you want to imprison Edward so you can always be near me?"
"Sarah, I don't know anything, because I also felt I lost the evidence when I checked the cupboard," Mike lied.
"Don't be shy, Mike, I think of you as my best friend, but you just want to make me suffer. I'm pregnant, I need support and attention, but my husband is in jail. He's changed a lot for the better though." Sarah looked disappointedly at Mike, whom she trusted so much. Huh, what a pity. If she knew that her best friend had also raped her in an unconscious state, let time make her slowly understand.
"Maybe it was the spy who stole it from me, I don't know, I just wanted to see you because I wanted to talk about this matter." Mike was back playing.
Sarah looked away, she was already disappointed with Mike.
"Sarah, please don't be angry." mike held Sarah's hand.
"Don't touch me, Mike. Because if you don't help Edward get free, I will hate you so much and our friendship ends here!" Sarah threatened, then returned to the elevator and pressed the button for the ground floor.
before the elevator closed, Mike joined Sarah. He didn't want Sarah to hate him and would still love her. For some reason, he felt he had to take care of the pregnant woman, even though she already had a husband.
"I'll help you, Sarah. But don't walk away from me," Mike pleaded.
"I won't stay away from you once I get Edward back free," Sarah replied conditionally.
Mike feels hurt, having to free the man who is loved by the woman he loves, but he can't refuse because he loves her too much and wants to always be together even though he is only considered a friend.
"Okay, I'll help. But you have to be patient because it's not easy to free people who have been caught with solid evidence, especially since the prosecution is not just a random person." Mike continues to persuade Sarah, instead of going free. though, it was just a lie because he liked Edward imprisoned and wouldn't release him.
When the elevator opened, Sarah immediately got out and walked down the corridor leading to the exit of the apartment building. Mike followed worriedly.
"Sarah, where are you going. You forgive me, right?"
"I want to visit Edward before visiting hours are over," Sarah said. It was four in the afternoon.
"I am coming along."
"Up to you."
Sarah immediately got into her parked car, as well as Mike got into his car. they immediately drove each to the police station.
___
Arriving at the police station, Sarah and Mike immediately entered, coincidentally at that time there were still around 30 minutes of visiting hours. They were allowed to meet Edward at a place that had been prepared by the police.
Edward looked lazily at Mike who came to visit him. "Why even take him, shouldn't you hire a lawyer to acquit me?" Edward looked at Sarah coldly.
Instead of answering, Sarah remained silent as she watched Edward's battered face. "Gosh, why are you so battered? Who would dare to beat you up like this?" Sarah felt Edward's temples and chapped lips.
"No need to care, you should have tried to absolve me! Instead of bringing this damn man!" Edward glanced sharply at Mike who occasionally smiled mockingly behind Sarah.
"He will help you free."
"You'd better ask dad for help than ask him for help, I don't want to!" Edward pushed Sarah's hand away from his face.
"But he can...."
"That's it. I truly don't want him to try. You're the one trying to find a lawyer, don't bring him around!" Edward got up from the chair and returned to the jail without saying goodbye to Sarah.
Mike shook his head at Edward who didn't appreciate Sarah. 'Your husband is shameless, if that's the case, you'd better stay in prison forever,' he thought.
Sarah looked sadly at Edward's back which was slowly no longer visible, she turned to glance at Mike who had been silent beside her. "Sorry if Edward said something unpleasant."
"It's okay, maybe he's dizzy too because he's upset."
Sarah nodded in understanding. "Maybe, let's go home. I'll ask my father for help to find a lawyer to free Edward," she said.
"Come on."
Mike and Sarah immediately left the police station.

After eating until full, Luna breastfeeds Keenan and Keyra simultaneously in their room. The twins suddenly stopped fussing and sucked milk enthusiastically in a prone position and Luna lay down.
"You're not coming back to the apartment again?" Luna asked Ethan who was watching her.
"No, Edward's been arrested and we don't have to part again," replied Ethan with a warm smile.
"Really? What evidence do you have to imprison him?" Luna made sure, occasionally correcting the position of the two babies.
"Evidence when he cut my car's brake cable, was found at Sarah's friend's house, so he could be caught," said Ethan with a relieved smile and then sat down beside Luna.
Luna was silent with a strange feeling, whether she should be happy or not, at Edward's arrest, she remembered Sarah who was pregnant.
Sarah must be sad because I felt how lonely and sad it was when I was pregnant and Ethan was never with me,' she thought anxiously. even though she hates Sarah, but he still has a conscience for her.
"I feel sorry for Sarah, she must be devastated by this." Luna glanced at Ethan who looked relieved.
"Why, Edward has the right to be arrested for his actions?" Ethan asked in surprise.
"Ethan, she's pregnant. I understand how she feels when Edward isn't by her side. Because it same with me when I sad when you ignore me."
Ethan sighed, looking at Luna in frustration because she couldn't even bear to have the heart of Sarah by promoting compassion as a fellow woman.
