Chapter 94

• Altezza finally managed to leave Jovanka's room. Last night, he had intended to leave the woman, but she had already woken up and asked him to stay and accompany her through the night. While he had promised Evans that he would help Jovanka's recovery. And this morning, with the excuse of wanting to change clothes, she finally allowed him to leave after making Altezza promise to return.
• Altezza parked his car and entered the house through the side door. The atmosphere in the house was eerily quiet. Even his mother, who usually bustled around, was nowhere to be seen. Bik Minah, who was usually busy with cooking ingredients, was also absent. Perhaps the mothers had all gone to the market together in a group, he thought simplistically.
• He then entered his wife's room. In his heart, he felt guilty for neglecting her last night. He had to apologize and explain everything. He knew Adaline would understand. She was a woman full of understanding.
