Chapter 57

Freshia Ava's POV

The next day, I had breakfast with Eros in the dining room. As if nothing had happened between us last night, breakfast that day went on as usual. Then after finishing breakfast, Eros asked me how I was this morning, whether it was better or not. I answered that my condition was much better since I woke up from my sleep. I no longer feel dizzy or nauseous, but I still feel a little weak. After that, Eros asked one of the servants to make a glass of warm lemon tea for me.

Not long after, the waiter came carrying a tray on which there was a cup, then he served the cup right in front of me when he arrived at the dining table. "Please have some tea, Miss," he said.

"Thank You," I replied to his words. After that, I immediately took the cup to enjoy the tea in it. But just as I was about to lift the cup that was in front of me, I heard a noise from the front of the house. Then one of Eros' men ran up to us.

“Sir, Mr. Martin came with several people outside. He forced his way in and said he wanted to see Mr. But when we told him to wait, the people Mr. Martin brought attacked us.” Reported Eros' subordinate.

I was shocked to hear what Eros' men had just said. Martin here? I said to myself. Then, I saw a drastic change in Eros' face. He looked so emotional that he clenched his fists tightly.

Not long after that, I heard the sound of the door being forced open accompanied by the scream of someone I knew very well. Yes, Martin has arrived at the door. “Eros Robinson, come out! I ask you to free Freshia!” Martin's voice boomed throughout the room.

Eros slammed the table and immediately got up from his seat. “Damn you, Martin!” He shouted loudly. “Freshia, I hope you go back to your room now,” Eros said before he went to meet Martin. Then he ordered several servants to take me back to the room.

I was in a dilemma and really confused at that time. Should I follow Eros' orders to return to the room or run towards Martin who came to free me from here? Why should I be confused like this? I was annoyed at myself. However, as if understanding my inner turmoil, Eros, who had not yet moved from his place, immediately grabbed my hand and looked at me deeply. “Please, go back to the room. Don't go, Freshia.” He said softly, making me not move when a servant took my hand to take me back to the room on his orders.

After that, I could see Eros immediately leave the dining room and approach Martin who was still stuck right in front of the door. When I was about to climb the stairs which were not far from where Martin was standing, our eyes met. I saw Martin immediately struggle and start hitting John who was blocking him. “Wait for me, Freshia. I will get you out of here soon.” Martin exclaimed in the middle of his punch aimed at John who only tried to dodge but didn't reply.

Not long after, Eros came and removed John's body, then without warning he immediately hit Martin in the face with his fist. I immediately stopped in my tracks when I saw the incident before my eyes. The first that Eros threw at Martin's face looked so strong that it made Martin stumble backward. "Damn you! I have warned you many times not to interfere in my affairs. Isn't my warning enough to keep you quiet?” Eros exclaimed loudly.

"Don't ever use my mom to threaten me, Eros! She has nothing to do with our problem this time. Moreover, remember that in your blood flows her blood. You would never be in this world if it weren't for her! Eros, realizes that she is also your parent!" Martin exclaimed no less loudly.

What? Who are they really talking about? Why does Martin call his mom to someone who is said to be related to Eros by blood? What does it mean? I wondered in my heart. What is the actual relationship between the two of them?

In the middle of my daydreaming at that time, suddenly someone grabbed my hand again. I thought that he was one of the maids assigned to take me back to my room. But when I turned to look at him, I was surprised to find Amara, who was wearing a maid costume, standing next to me. She immediately put his index finger in front of her lips as a condition so that I wouldn't scream or say her name. "Follow me!" She whispered before she pulled my arm back down.

“Where have the servants who were around me gone?” I asked in a whisper to Amara as we went back down the stairs that I had already half-stepped on.

"I told them that Eros told me to take you away from here." She answered also in a low voice. “Don't say anything until we are in a safe place. I'll help you get out of here while Martin distracts Eros and all his men who are on guard." Amara said again as she continued to pull my arm to go out the back door to the small gate at the side of the house yard. The gate that had previously been my goal to escape was also intended for servants who wanted to go in and out of this house.

At that time, there were really no guards outside the house. All of Eros' men were in the front yard fighting Martin's men. I still can't believe what happened today. When my desire to run away from this house began to subside, I actually managed to get out of there. After we made it through the small gate, Amara immediately directed our steps to get into a car that was waiting not far from the gate and we immediately got into it.

"Hurry up, sir," Amara ordered a driver who was ready behind the wheel.

"Amara, where are we going from here?" I asked after the car we were in had driven away from Eros' house.

Amara looks busy with the cell phone in her hand. “One moment, Freshia. I'll let Martin know first that we've made it out of there.”

I fell silent. For some reason, I felt very worried about what would happen after Eros found out that I ran away from his house. What will he do to me next? I thought. I know it definitely won't be difficult for him to find my location. Whether it's sooner or later, Eros will definitely find me.

“Freshia, sorry to keep you waiting. Currently, we will go to the house that Martin has rented which is in a remote village. We are sure that Eros will definitely not find you because the village is very far from his reach." Amara said.

"I'm just worried that Eros will get angry when he finds out that I ran away from his house, Amara. I'm just afraid."

Amara then held my hand tightly. "Do not be afraid. Martin and I will try to look after you, Freshia. We will be by your side. Most importantly, I want to apologize to you for making you wait so long at that house. You must have been through some tough days so far. I'm sorry I can only get you out of that place now." Said Amara who then hugged my body tightly. But I just kept quiet. For some reason, my mind is currently filled with the figure of Eros Robinson.
