Aiah asked, "What happened?"

It wasn't because she wanted to cover for her friend, she was just so sure that it was not something Maloi would ever do.

Akira's family was average, his wage was not high either. In the past, whenever they visited for holidays, Maloi would spend a lot of money buying all sorts of health products for his parents. Maloi even helped give a large sum of money to the in-laws' family when Akira's older brother got married. But although it was Akira who asked, it was also Maloi who willingly gave the money, so it wasn't a big deal.

Maloi used to have a few male celebrities under her too, and she never had anything more than a working relationship with anyone. To put it simply, Aiah didn't know whether Maloi loved Akira, but she knew that she was very serious about their relationship.

Maloi went silent for a moment and said, "I can't explain this over the phone, I'll talk about it when I'm back in Manila."

The sound of the airport broadcast could be heard through the phone. Aiah looked at the time. "It's just eight, you're already coming back?"

"Yeah," Maloi said. "I've settled what I have to and you have no assistant. Okay, I'm hanging up, I'm boarding now."

When Mikha stepped out after washing up, she saw Aiah staring at the phone. "What is it?"

"Nothing." Aiah remembered then that they had to go get breakfast. She got up and took her clothes out of the wardrobe. "Wait for me to change, go call Sheena, she's in room 1212, I'll be there after I change."

Mikha frowned. "We're not taking her."

She just finished talking when the doorbell rang.

Sheena skipped her way in and said, "Ate Aiah, that was... like super cool!"

Mikha said, "Call her Sister-in-law."

".... Sister-in-law."

Aiah had already changed and was putting her hair up in a ponytail in the bathroom. "You might not believe it, but it really was a mistake."

Sheena smiled. "Now that this happened, it might worry that old granny to death."

Knowing who she meant, Aiah calmly said. "This was just one celebrity in the company getting into trouble. It hasn't reached that level yet, she has plenty of celebrities under her."

The industry was just this cruel. If there was a scandal the company could salvage, they'd try; but if not they'd simply let go, allowing you to sink slowly under the water. But this scandal had involved Daniel and his company clearly didn't want to give him up, so it wasn't impossible for Denise to get out of the issue too.

They left the hotel while chatting and entered a porridge shop.

Aiah ate a bit of the porridge and asked Mikha, "When are you going back?"

Mikha ruffled her hair and had yet to reply when the phone on the table rang.

Mikha glanced at the caller ID, then took the phone with her, only picking up after leaving the shop.

Seeing that her sister had left, Sheena said softly, "I saw the caller ID, it's our Dad, that's definitely a call to make sure she comes back home."

Aiah distractedly continued eating the porridge after responding with 'Uh-huh'.

Seeing her so unaffected, Sheena couldn't help asking, "Don't you know why?"
