“I told you, stop sending me flowers, Dev!” Vania snapped as she stormed out of the office building, gripping a bouquet of white roses that had just been handed to her by the receptionist.

The surrounding staff pretended to be busy, but their curious glances were obvious. Vania sighed, hugging the bouquet like she was about to crush it.

The sky was overcast that afternoon. Rain had just stopped, and the smell of wet earth mixed with the sharp scent of fresh flowers clung to the air.

She climbed into her car and tossed the bouquet onto the backseat. As usual, tucked among the petals was a small slip of paper—handwritten, with letters she had come to recognize too well:

> “Good morning, Van. I hope your day goes as beautifully as your smile, the one that always makes me want to come home. – D.”

She crumpled the note and shut her eyes for a moment. It felt like being thrown back into a past she’d fought so hard to leave behind.

    A light drizzle began to fall that night. The sky over Bali looked gray, as if mirroring the weight in Vania’s heart. She sat alone on the back terrace of the villa, lit only by the dim glow of the garden lights. Her laptop glowed in front of her, still replaying the same video.> “I just wanted to get you back, Dev... So I pretended to be pregnant. It was all a lie. Even the clinic letter was fake.”Lyra’s voice echoed like a curse in her ears. Vania closed her eyes, holding her breath, but the tightness in her chest remained. Her hand covered her mouth, trying to stifle the sob that threatened to escape.“Dev...” she whispered, brokenly.Only now did she realize—Devandra hadn’t lied. Every doubt, every rejection, every angry word she’d thrown at him had been misplaced. And now that the truth was out, Vania was left with one painful regret:Why hadn’t she trusted him from the start?Her sobs broke free, beyond her control. She rested her forehead on her knees and wept in silence. In

    "You can't keep her from the truth forever, Re."Revaldo snapped his head toward Devandra, who was standing just inside the hotel parking lot entrance. Their meeting wasn’t an accident—or maybe it was far too intentional.“I sent the video to Vania. Let her see who you really are. And who Lyra is,” Devandra said, his voice flat. His face was filled with pain, but his eyes no longer wavered.Revaldo stepped closer, each stride heavy, his eyes dark and cold. “I’ve blocked every way you can reach her. She won’t see a thing.”“You think this is protection?” Devandra’s jaw clenched. “It’s not. This is control.”Revaldo’s fist tightened, but he didn’t answer. He just glared at Devandra before turning around and walking away in silence.---Days passed in Bali.Vania began to feel a strange shift within her. Devandra—the man who had always fought relentlessly for her—had suddenly disappeared. No messages. No calls. Even when she secretly reopened her old Instagram account, there was no trace

    “Don’t be nervous. Let her talk on her own,” Hanz whispered while adjusting the tiny microphone hidden inside his jacket. He sat across from Devandra in the corner of an elegant café—a place they had strategically chosen.Devandra leaned back, outwardly calm, though inside, his heart was burning. This was the moment he’d been waiting for ever since Lyra’s lies had come to light.A few minutes later, the café door swung open.Lyra entered, as glamorous as ever. Her hair was neatly styled, her lips bright red, and her eyes scanned the room with sharp calculation. When her gaze met Devandra’s, a manipulative smile spread across her face.“Dev… Hanz…” she greeted as she took a seat. “Why did you suddenly want to meet?”Devandra gave a faint smile. “We just want to talk. Settle everything, so there’s nothing left unresolved.”“Settle?” Lyra raised an eyebrow.Hanz ordered drinks as a distraction. Under the table, he discreetly pressed the “record” button on the small device hidden in his m

    “Wait! Sir, the gate is closing!”Devandra nearly shoved past the airport security officer. His breath was ragged, and his semi-formal shirt clung to his body, soaked with sweat. He didn’t care. His leather shoes were nearly torn from sprinting across the parking lot all the way to the domestic departure gate.His eyes scanned the crowd of passengers lining up to board a flight to Denpasar. And there—at the end of the boarding gate corridor—he saw the figure that made his heart plummet.Vania.She was walking beside Revaldo. They looked relaxed, like two people about to enjoy a peaceful vacation. Revaldo was carrying Vania’s small bag, and she turned to him with a soft smile—one Devandra hadn’t seen since the whole ordeal with Lyra.Devandra froze. His legs refused to move. His clenched fists slowly loosened.Too late.**A few minutes later, Devandra sat slumped in one of the airport’s waiting chairs. His phone was still in his hand, displaying the last message he had sent to Vania:

    “We have to make sure the original medical records are legally admissible,” Hanz said as he lowered his sunglasses, studying Devandra’s face across the table.In the corner of a small café tucked away in Blok M, the two men sat with serious expressions. On the table between them was a thick folder filled with photocopies of records from a hidden clinic Lyra had once visited.Devandra nodded. “I’ve already contacted the company’s regular lawyer. But we need to tread carefully. If Lyra finds out this is going legal too early, she might tamper with the evidence.”Hanz leaned back. “I was thinking the same. We need primary evidence from that clinic. Digital records, CCTV footage—if any. And a neutral witness testimony.”Devandra stared straight ahead, his jaw clenched. “I’m not backing down. Not just to clear my name... but for Vania. She deserves to know I wasn’t lying.”“I’ve got your back, Dev. All the way.”They locked eyes and nodded. Among half-empty coffee cups and the hum of traff

    “Are you sure you want to see this, Hanz?”The woman behind the old clinic’s reception desk looked at Hanz with uncertainty written all over her face.“Please, Ma’am. It’s important. I just need to know if Lyra was ever a patient here.”Hanz’s voice was quiet but firm, carrying undeniable urgency. He handed her a slip of paper with Lyra’s full name and the approximate date she returned to Jakarta. His eyes locked intensely on the computer screen behind the desk.The woman sighed and gave in. She began typing quickly, then pointed at a medical record that popped up.“Here it is. Lyra Adistya. She came in for an early pregnancy check-up. But that was about four months before she moved back to Jakarta.”Hanz leaned closer, reading the date carefully. Three months before Devandra and Lyra began communicating again.His face hardened.“Is there any note about who accompanied her? Any emergency contact?”The woman shook her head. “She came alone. But... someone did pick her up during the se
