Alex falls down asking for forgiveness from Diane, and Diane invites Alex to get back up.
"After hurting me so incredibly and leaving me endless suffering. Now, you came after the birth of Aland. Saying sorry is very easy, but not my life, which you destroyed so incredibly." Diane said with trembling lips.
"Diane, tell me, what must I do to atone for my sins?" Alex kept begging.
"Live well and don't hurt anyone anymore. If you want to meet Aland, I won't forbid you. Just don't interfere too much in our lives anymore."
"Is there no chance for us to get back together?" Alex looks really sorry for what he did.
"Sorry, I'm comfortable with my new life. For me, we are just a piece of history from the past."
"Was it all because of James?" asked Alex inquiringly also jealousy in his chest.
Diane smiled crookedly and dismissed Alex's guess. "No. James was the one who helped me, when I was in a slump. However, if I had to choose, I don't want to drag a man as good as James into my sad life."
"I'm divorcing Sharon, and will keep coming back to reassure you." Firmly Alex who looks very serious.
"Beka, take Aland to the back." Diane looked quite furious at Alex's statement.
"Do you intend to take Aland away from me? You are truly a shameless and lowly man! After being content with slandering me, now you want to destroy me again!" Diane screamed hysterically.
"Diane, it's not like that...really, please don't be prejudiced against me. I just want to correct my mistake, is there really no chance for me?"
"You better get out of my house! You'll only be a parasite in my life!" Diane snapped.
"Diane, why are you being like this?"
A commotion ensued, and at the same time James came to Diane's residence.
•••
"Do you have no self-esteem! You are forcing the woman you destroyed, just for your own selfish sake!" James snapped, then hit Alex's face with two fists.
Before Alex had time to retaliate, Diane already poured a bucket of cold water on Alex until Alex was completely wet.
"Go! Never interfere in our lives again. Forget it, if you ever sowed a seed in my womb!" Diane snapped, already furious.
"Gentlemen, you better leave now, or we will report to the authorities for the inconvenience you have made." Said one of the bodyguards from James.
Because of the commotion, baby Aland kept crying in fear. This made Diane feel very guilty towards baby Aland.
"Honey, I'm sorry mom... you shouldn't have flesh and blood like that bad man..." Diane said in a soft tone as she hugged baby Aland.
Diane's life story is really sad, and it's not easy for Diane to survive this far. the deep regret that Alex felt was not enough to make the deep wounds in Diane's life heal just like that.
However, since the presence of James, Diane's life has become much better than before. However, Diane was actually still very doubtful about James' feelings. It is undeniable, the trauma of marriage makes Daine really afraid to get involved in new problems again. Because her dark life story with Alex, is enough to be a very valuable lesson.

As time went on, James really got serious about his feelings for Diane. James tries to prove his sincerity and seriousness to Diane. And even then, Daine gradually began to feel melted at all the actions of James.
"No matter what your past is, I still love you. Please, stop talking about your past... because I only care about the present and the future with you." Said James reassuring Diane's feelings.
Diane could hardly believe that there was still a man who was so sincere and patient with her. Even though he's only a single parent, that doesn't make James back down. Precisely James felt Diane was a woman who was very sincere and deserved to be loved. Apart from being beautiful and smart, Diane also has more value in James's eyes.
Will Alex just stay quiet about this? Or is Alex just acting even worse?
