Ryan's aghast. She never imagined Maya would get pregnant. He felt like he didn't believe that. Maya's eyes were sharp and piercing. Maya did not avoid Ryan's gaze, instead looking back at the man's eyes. They stared at each other intently, no one was willing to give up.
"I'm serious, Ryan! I'm pregnant!"
"That's impossible! I .. I feel like what we're doing is safe" Ryan said.
"You don't dodge, Ryan. You have to take responsibility for everything you do!"
"I'm sorry, Maya. My head's dizzy! I don't want to go back to you. You can't prove that you're pregnant because of me. Sorry, I don't want to admit it! I decided to go back to Nadine, not you!"
"God! Ryan ... so much for you!"
Despite the weight, Ryan had to make that important decision. He knew that Maya was very angry with him with the decision he had just made. However, he also could not deny that he loved Nadine very much, so he had to take this tough decision. He left the woman in his rage.
"I have to go Maya. I'm sorry" said Ryan, without concern for the angry-looking Maya.
"Where are you going?" ask Maya quickly.
"I want to calm my mind for a moment" replied Ryan.
"Ryan! You can't be like that!"
"Keep what do you want? We married that? No Maya! I want to get out of this! Don't bother me anymore"
"Alright Ryan. All right, if that's what you want. You are indeed bajing*an! Think carefully about what you want to do. Remember, don't leave the castle! It's dangerous!" maya's Message.
"That's my business, Maya! I can take care of myself! Labih either you go back to the room or anywhere. You know, outside the castle is safer than inside this fucking castle! This castle is full of confusing hallways and spaces, and also annoying people like you! I suggest you get out of the castle for your safety!" ryan's.
"Just obey my words, Ryan .... "
"Enough, Maya! I'm going out now!"
Ryan doesn't want to argue with Maya anymore. He stepped out of the sculpture collection room, heading outside through the hallway that connects with the dining room. He had to pass through the main dining table before going out. In the dining room, Jeremy looks who is arranging the dining table. He was ready for his lunch.
"Hi Ryan! You don't have lunch? It's ready. Just wait a minute!" said Jeremy.
Ryan just smiled a little, shaking his head weakly and richly, "I'll be Jer. I'm gonna get some wind, for a second,."
Jeremy just smiled a little, while busy composing plates and glasses. Ryan stepped out of the castle, looking at the paramedics who had just evacuated Aditya's body. In the front yard there, Reno and Juned are releasing the departure of the ambulance carrying Aditya's body. Ryan paused his intention to get out, peering out from behind a grove of houseplants, waiting for an ambulance to come out of the castle grounds. He only wanted to get out of the castle for a while because he felt depressed inside the castle.
Before long, an ambulance came out of the castle courtyard, without a roar. After the conditions are completely deserted, then Ryan out of the castle, heading for a path not far from the castle. The goal is a waterfall, because he just wants to sit for a moment while feeling the flow of oxygen so that his chest feels more relieved.
Not far from the path to the waterfall, on the other side of the forest, Niken was still tied to a tree. The energy is almost gone. He felt exhausted, because he had been struggling, trying to get out of the bind. When the wind blows, Niken can smell a foul odor that is quite pungent, like the smell of carrion. Niken was quite tormented with it, because he could not cover his nose.
"You what is this? Looks pretty close," muttered Niken.
Niken felt unable to stand the current situation. He felt so tormented by the bonds all over his body. In the remnants of the power he had, he tried to shout to release his frustration.
"Aargha!"
The scream was not loud enough, but it was heard in the ears of Ryan who was passing the path not far from where Niken was held. Ryan was surprised to hear a scream that almost resembled a groaning sound. From that voice, Ryan guessed that whoever it was, must be currently in a state of suffering or sadness, however, he suddenly hesitated. Who is whimpering in this desolate forest? Lest it's all just his hallucinations.
Between fear and curiosity, Ryan sped away from the source of the sound to the waterfall. He doesn't want anything bad to happen to him. Even if he met someone in distress, he had to think a thousand times to help him. He is still traumatized by the events that happened. Intentions want to help, but there are even wretched. He doesn't want to be like that. He continued his journey to the waterfall.
While Niken Amsih is tormented in bondage. He could do nothing else but surrender. The stench stinks the nose. He was very upset about the situation, but what could he do?

Moments after Ryan left the castle, a car came into the courtyard. The car was Mariah's car that had just returned from the city, along with Edwin who he had just found unconscious on the side of the road. Mariah was relieved, as almost all affairs were smooth today. Edwin also felt relieved, because in the end he could return to the castle, although there was an immeasurable fear. That means, he will meet again with the figure of a killer who is after his life.
Mariah and Edwin immediately entered the castle, coinciding with a lunch hour that was not much attended by the residents. Mariah herself also chose to immediately rest in the room, not following lunch. Likewise Edwin, he went straight to his room because he felt his head was so heavy and dizzy.
Rosita, who was confined to her room, jumped to see her husband's return alive. He immediately hugged Edwin tightly, then examined the head of Edwin who had been hit.
"I thought you were dead" Rosita murmured.
"Sama, I used to think so when I felt a loud bang on my head. So aware, I found it somewhere else, and I also thought that maybe you were dead, too" Edwin said, holding his head.
"I'm not going to die that easy, Win!" seloroh Rosita's.
Rosita took an ice cube and compressed Edwin's head. He noticed a dried up blood scar and a bruised scar on the head. Rosita cleaned the bruise, then smeared it with ointment.
"You're in the room first don't go anywhere. Let me take care of everything. You will definitely recover and everything will be fine" said Rosita.
Edwin just nodded, not refuting. Rosita came out of the room, took lunch for Edwin. The man wanted to relax the stiff muscles. He lay on the bed staring at the ceiling. Suddenly he accidentally held something that was placed under a pillow, which seemed to be a book. Edwin picked up the book that was placed under the pillow. It turns out to be a novel. Edwin clearly read the author of the novel: Tiara Laksmi!
