But what's supposed to be a breakfast to cheer up Henri it turned out to be the opposite.

Papalabas pa lang sila nang hotel nang makasalubong nila si Phillippe. Napakaseryoso nito, no smirk, no playful smile.

"Henri, can we talk in private?. It's really important", saad nito. And basing on the urgency of his tone and the seriousness of his face, Henri knew something's coming..

They excused themselves, but before that Henri had to assure Luka that everything's fine. But both Luka and Reece sensed the tension from Phillippes' voice. And they both knew, something's going on.

Pagkapasok nila nang private office ni Henri, hindi nagpaliguy-ligoy pa si Phillippe: 

"Kilala mo ba kung kanino ang boses na ito?" and he played a voicemail from his phone. "Hey Phil, how are you?" and the voicemail ended..

The message is too short, pero kilalang-kilala ni henri ang boses na yun..

"You know who it is right? Ibig sabihin buhay si Quinn and he's somewhere near. This is good news Henri", Said Phillippe, full of excitement.

"You haven't told anyone about this, have you?", si Henri in a so serious tone.

"hindi pa, ipaparinig ko lang muna sa inyo ni Duke to be sure. I'm sorry Henri, for hitting on you. I just thought that, maybe it's what Quinn would have wanted. I mean you know about Duke right?", paumanhin nito.

"Don't let anyone hear this, No one can know. Let him live in peace, Phil. Let me live in peace", Henri replied, her voice pleading..

Puno nang pagtataka ang mukha ni Phillippe, iniisip nito na dapat si henri na ang pinakamasayng tao sa mundo kasi buhay ang Fiance nito. Pero parang baliktad, parang mas lalo pang lumambong ang dati na nitong malungkot na mukha.

'I'll explain it to you when the right time comes". pinal na sagot ni henri.

Phil couldn't do anything but stare at her. he couldn't believe wha't she's trying to say. So he just nodded.. Wala siyang magagawa, pero determinado siyang hanapin si Quinn at ibalik kay Henri, secretly.

Paglabas nang office nina Henri, kitang-kita ang pagbabago sa mukha nito. Nagpipigil lang si Luka na sugurin si Phillippe, alam niyang may sinabi ito kay Hneri para magkaganoon ang pinsan niya. Even Reece, can't help himself not to hit Phillippe.

"Reece, my apologies to your parents but I can't make it to their anniversary tonight. Luka, mauna na ko sa Villa. Sorry, I really don't feel well.", Henri explained.

Her voice, her face, says it all. Hurt, pain, cheated, agony..

"No, I'm going with you" sabay na sagot ni Reece and Luka.

"You can't Reece, it's your parents anniversary, please stay, for me. Luka, let's go', at tinalikuran na niya ang mga ito.

"What did you do to her?", galit ang tono ni Luka.

Pero hindi sumagot si Phillippe. Kaya iniwan na lang ito ni Luka, sabay paumanhin kay Reece.

Nadatnan na ni Luka ang pinsan na nag-iimpake. Ayaw na sana niyang magtanong pero he just had to.

"Henri, anong nangyari?", tanong ni Luka dito.

"nothing Luka", henri's answer short and final.

At hindi na nagtanong pa si Luka, alam na niyang hindi magsasalita ang pinsan niya. But if it's the company, hindi ganoon ang magiging reaction nito, so that only means it's about one person "Quinn".

Pagdating nila nang Villa, dumiretso na si Henri sa kuwarto niya and as Luka expected 'a lonely tune is being played by Henri again'.

Tinawagan agad ni Luka si Reece, telling him what's happening.

The lonely Violinist is back..
