They were all frowning.

"Are you sick of cleaning and doing laundry?" she asks. "Now you have to find someone to clean the entire mansion."

"All right, miss," Hera said, "can we go out now and go to the city?"

She replied, "Of course."

Zander was too lazy to get out of bed, so he was still curled up in his bed. His life is dull because no one ever calls to tell him she love him.  Mitch  wasn't sorry at all, but he knew Mitch was the first to give up, so there was nothing he could do. The first thing Zander heard was a knock on the door.

Outside the door, his mother said, "Son, come out. We're going to have breakfast. Will you still sleep?"

"Mom, I'm next," he said.

"Just hurry up because your Uncle Agusto is expecting you."

"Is that so?"

Zander rose from his bed, exited the room, and proceeded to the kitchen. Uncle Agusto was here, as his mother had predicted.

"Zander, hurry up, we're going to eat."

"Yes, Uncle," She say.

Zander took a seat in front of Uncle Agusto and began to eat.

"I've come to take you to the city, Zander, because the members of the business association had a party," Uncle explained.

"What do I know about business, Uncle? I'm a teacher," Zander explained.

"I want you to enjoy yourself, so hurry up there first," Uncle said.

"Mom should accompany you because she is your secretary," he advises.

"She doesn't want to come, so you should come instead."

He replied, "All right, Uncle, wait a minute, I'll just get dressed."

Zander went into his room and changed his clothes. He emerged from his room two minutes later.

He says, "Mom, we're leaving."

"All right, be safe on your trip."

"Yes."

When Zander emerged, Uncle Augusto was already in the car. As a result, he just walked in.

Uncle told Zander, "It's up to you to drive."

As a result, he exited the vehicle and sat in the driver's seat.

"What time is your party, Uncle?" Zander inquired.

Uncle replied, "It's still around seven o'clock in the evening, so let's hang out at Nathan's house in the city first."

Zander smiled and nodded.

"Is he also going?" he asked.

"You can't always force that person to come," Uncle August explained, "but you don't have to force him to present himself if he truly wants to."

"Can you tell me what happened when he went to another country, as you mentioned?"

"Is it about that? Nothing happened because his girlfriend, whom he left behind, had already married someone else when he went there, so why did he stay there? He just came back here."

Only Zander could say, "Nobody really chooses to be hurt, even if they are so successful in life that the person they love will be able to leave."

"You're right, because there's no such thing as certainty in life; it's not like the person you love will be yours for life; some people just came by to teach you a lesson in how to be strong, while others just make you happy for a while but not for long; reality is better than a dream," Uncle explained.

We arrived in the city an hour later.

"Get down there first, Zander, and I'll drive to Nathan's house." Uncle said to him.

"That's fine."

Because the girls were in the city, Zaneska was alone in the pool. As a result, she began by meditating. Her phone eventually rang, and she tossed it on top of the glass table. Randolf had called, and she had seen him.

"Hello, Randolf, what's up?" she asked on the other line.

"Are you free tonight?" Randolf asked.

 "Yeah, why?" She replied.

"Some businessmen invited you to their party tonight; are you coming?" Randolf asked.

"How come I only found out now?"

"Of course, I didn't know until now," Randolf replied, "and you almost forgot that the news will pass me by before you."

Zaneska replied, "Yeah, that's right." 

"Tsk. Are you going?" Randolf asked her again.

 "What time is the party? Please come on my behalf"

"About 7:00 p.m.; however, why should I come?"

"Most of the time, when gatherings like that, the assistant should be present," Zaneska said.

"You're going to a party; this isn't a business meeting where I have to come to list what you discussed," Randolf responded.

"I was bored there; I couldn't talk to you; you wouldn't come," Zaneska explained.

"Eh, Miss, it's just you; maybe you'll found a boyfriend when you go there."

She exclaims, "Stupid!"

Randolf then hung up the phone.
Randolf is the type of person who can't be forced to go when he doesn't want to. She let out a sigh. Who is she allowed to invite? She'll dial Calvin's number. He did not answer the phone when she called him. She's enraged. There were none when she needed them. She took a look at the time. She had no choice but to go into the bathroom and take a bath because it was six o'clock.

Nathan's house was already occupied by Zander and Uncle Conrad.

"Agusto, I thought you weren't coming?"

Uncle replied, "Is that okay? I'm sure they'll look for me."
Uncle Nathan asked, "I thought you were going to take her mother?"

"She didn't show up, despite her promise to do something."

"That's how women are; you can't make them come if they don't want to."

Uncle replied, "Yes."

"It's great that you're coming, Zander," Uncle Nathan said. "Let's go girl hunting later."

Uncle Agusto replied, "That's right, Zander is single, dude."

Uncle Nathan questioned him, "Why? What happened to the woman you brought to the beach house?"

He couldn't avoid talking about his love life no matter how hard he tried.

"Nothing," Zander replied, "she abruptly ended our relationship."

"Don't worry, that's even better; we can't let our own self love them even if they leave us. What time is it?"

Uncle Agusto replied, "Six -five."

"Let's get going."

We exited the building and entered the vehicle. Uncle Agusto was still behind the wheel. Zander's head ached and he leaned back in his car seat. If he has a fever, he hopes he doesn't have a headache right now. The party hall was packed when we arrived. Uncle Agusto and Uncle Nathan were greeted with a wave and a smile coming from other visitors.  They went looking for a seat and all three of them sat down at the same time. A tall man about Uncle Agusto's age approached them as they sat down.

The man said, "Thank you, and you arrived, Agusto."

"Yes."

"And where is your wife? So this handsome man with you is your son?" the man asked, his gaze falling on him.

"Yes,"
He greeted Zander with, "Oh, nice to meet you, son."

"I'm glad to meet you as well," Zander replied.

Uncle Nathan was the focus of the man's attention.

"How are you doing, Nathan? Where is your date tonight?"

Uncle Nathan said, "Don't keep pretending, Lance, you know your sister got married in another country."

"I'm sorry, ma'am," the man said, laughing, "I didn't help you; it's your fault."

Uncle Nathan said, "Dammit, Lance, don't remind me of what I did to your sister."

"Whatever the case may be, I'm leaving first; have fun at the party."

Someone approached their waiter after the old man had left and offered them something to drink.

Uncle Nathan asked, "Agusto, do you have a phone number for Zaneska Vergara?" Zander overheard.

Uncle Agusto asked him, "Did you ask for business? No, I didn't ask for business," he replied. 

Uncle Agusto asked him, "Did you ask for business? No, I didn't ask for business," he replied. 

"Nothing, Uncle," 

Uncle Agusto said, "Why didn't I think of bringing Duke here? Look around Zander, maybe his parents are here."

"I haven't met Duke's parents yet, Uncle."

"Is that so?"
When Zander turned around, he noticed a woman standing in the foyer. She was looking for someone she recognised as bored based on her appearance.

Zaneska had a frown on her face. She is now standing at the entrance to the location of the party.  Sh e noticed Uncle Agusto with two men in the distance and approached them. She was taken aback when she saw Zander next to Nathan as she approached.
She was taken aback when she saw Zander next to Nathan as she approached.
"Oh, Nathan," she says, "I didn't expect to see you again."

"Zaneska! I just asked Agusto for your phone number, but you're already here," Nathan said.

"Is that so, and why?" he asked.

"If I had known you were coming, I would have called you."

"I was also invited; I didn't want to go, but I was forced to go because my assistant didn't."

"Ah, I see," 

"Hello, Zander, you look great."

In this type of atmosphere, Zander was bored. But he'll make an effort to stay alive, even though his head hurts. Zaneska looks stunning in her black sleeveless fitted whole dress with a side slit tonight. Zander, on the other hand, notices Zaneska's unhappiness with her decision to come here.

Soon after, an elderly gentleman approached them, and a young man of his age gazed at Zaneska.

The old man asked, "I finally meet you, Miss Vergara or Mrs?"

"I'm still single." Zaneska.

"Great, but why?" said the old man. "Why is it that a successful businesswoman, at the age of thirty, is still single? But it's not questionable. By the way, I want you to meet my son, Kent; the two of you are a perfect match, I'm sure."

Zaneska's forehead was frowning, as if she didn't like what the old man said.

"She's with me, Mr. Luigi," Uncle Nathan interjects, "so it's not right for you to give her to your son without asking me."

The old man burst out laughing.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Tan, I see you're not Miss Vergara's thing," the old man said, irritating Uncle Nathan. "You know, among the rich, fix marriage is in vogue even if they don't love each other."

The old man's son, on the other hand, was always staring at Zaneska's legs. Zander's teeth were clenched.
