After the last meeting at the dinner, Mazaya never saw Jorell again. It's been more than two months. Jorell who said he would call her by texting or calling never existed. Mazaya felt lost again. He could only breathe.
At the time of the loss, Liam was always there to comfort Mazaya. Although Liam knew, his love would never be reciprocated. But his feelings were very sincere, he could not see Mazaya who continued to grieve for a long time.

At home, every day Jefrey always clash with his mother after Jorell from meeting with Mazaya.
"Ma, come on, take care of all this. Do you have no pity to see Jorell who now doesn't look like a human? He looks like a robot who always does the same routine every day!"
"That's even better, so your sister is more focused on the company than thinking about the poor woman" Margaret replied.
"It's all my fault, Ma. I told Jorell to come there. I planned their meeting. Although Jorell actually already knows where Mazaya is. She always held herself back for still respecting mama as her mother. But now? Mama's making Jorell like he wasn't herself! Mama limited her space. Confiscate his cell phone, even keep an eye on whatever he's doing!"
Jefrey could no longer bear all her frustration and anger at her mother. He felt sorry for his brother who continued to be controlled like a robot.
"Why are you angry? Jorell didn't break any of my mother's orders. He was calm" Margaret replied again.
"That's because she loves her mom too much. More important to my mom than her own happiness. She'd rather do what you told her to do, so you wouldn't do anything bad to Mazaya!"
"What's my mom doing bad? You just throw away what is unnecessary. Mom still gives him a job in our company."
"I don't know anymore how to open my mind. But, you have to remember one thing, in our families we need people like Mazaya who are hardworking and not easily oppressed. It is very suitable if you are with Jorell even though he comes from a family that is not commensurate with us. Mazaya is a talented person, mama must know that because I know, mama let him still be in our company because considering his talent. Mama doesn't want to lose, but won't throw it away either."
Margaret did not answer Jefrey's words because what her son said was true. He does not want to lose by letting talented people fall into other companies.
"What kind of empty muzzle is that!"
Margaret answered as if what Jefrey had said was wrong.
"Ma, again I ask, please don't limit Jorell's wiggle room. Let him choose for himself what his life path will be like. He is an adult and can choose the best for him. Don't you set this up."
"No one can break all your words. What mom decided for you. That's what's best."
Margaret then left Jefrey and walked through her second child's room, which was not sealed.
Since Jorell was watched by his mother, Jorell chose to never go anywhere other than to the office. After the office, Jorell will definitely spend his time in his room. It's free to leave, because it will make the situation worse. Jorell chose to work, work and work. He even went out of the room when he ate. It's like a prince locked up in a house.
