After finishing the story with the Ervil family, Ares spent two days resting with Tharn at the mansion before returning to Thailand. He called for a meeting with all the employees in the cabaret department, regardless of their positions. Everyone in the department already knew that Tharn was Ares's lover, and those who used to cause trouble seemed to quiet down when Ares mentioned the issue of Pha Paeng during the meeting. As a result, the performances would be adjusted accordingly, and there would be an increase in drug testing for all employees every month. Anyone who is founded using drugs would be immediately dismissed and reported to the police.
As for Jane, she has been gradually improving herself after witnessing the consequences of Pha Paeng's actions. Jane has a hunch that the one responsible for putting Pha Paeng in jail and causing Pipat’s death was Ares, which relieved her that she had turned her life around quickly. If she had continued stubbornly seeking revenge against Tharn by collaborating with Pipat, she would likely be the one in jail by now.
Regarding Pha Paeng, Jane had visited her in custody but was met with Pha Paeng's complaints, saying that it was because of Jane that she ended up in that situation. However, Jane reflected on her past actions; she realized that part of the trouble and problems she caused for Tharn was due to being incited by Pha Paeng. Yet, Jane didn't blame Pha Paeng alone; she acknowledged her own responsibility for being foolish enough to follow that instigation. Jane has already personally apologized to Tharn, and Tharn did not hold any grudges against her, recognizing that Jane was beginning to improve. This led Tharn to discuss with Ares about not letting Jane leave the cabaret, and Ares allowed Tharn to make that decision.
Aomsin, the young boy that Tharn took in, is being cared for by Tharn, who has also arranged to transfer his house registration to live with him. Tharn is preparing Aomsin to enter university the following year, with Rafa helping to cover the expenses and tutoring Aomsin in language skills. At first, Tharn was a bit reluctant, but Ares helped to speak on Rafa's behalf, so Tharn tried not to make a fuss.
On the other hand, Tharn has not heard any news about Tiara, as he did not think to ask Ares about her. Meanwhile, Tiara is caught up in vying for the attention of Prince Bildas among the concubines and the prince's harem. Amidst the slander and bullying, both in front of and behind her back, she remains ambitious and desires to become queen in order to grasp the power that she will never attain, as the prince already has someone in his heart. After two years, she will be sent back to her country unless she commits a serious offence that warrants harsh punishment.
"Where is Tharn?" Ares's deep voice sounded as he came down from Tharn's bedroom and saw Aomsin sitting in the living room studying languages with Rafa.
"Did you come down and not see me, so you had to ask? Are you worried I might disappear?" Tharn, holding a glass of water coming out from the kitchen, asked with a smile.
"Huh, you won’t disappear because you have a tracking device," Ares said while looking at Tharn's ankle, which most people would think was just an accessory. Tharn rolled his eyes slightly before handing the glass of water to Ares, who accepted it and drank it willingly. Ares is no longer staying at the hotel he had purchased but has moved in to stay with Tharn at his seaside house instead, as now it is just Tharn and Aomsin living together, while Nom comes and goes since there is no sick person to take care of anymore.
"Are you hungry?" Tharn asked since it was already quite late, and Ares had been working late into the night, so he woke up late today.
"Um, what are we eating?" Ares pulled Tharn’s waist to hug him, and Aomsin felt shy on his behalf, causing Rafa to call him back to focus on studying languages.
"Last night you complained about wanting to eat what?" Tharn asked with a smile.
"Tom Yum soup," Ares replied. Tharn chuckled softly, not expecting someone as picky as Ares to like Tom Yum soup, let alone like it a lot.
