Chapter 31

Richard confronts Roman about his seemingly close relations with his student's mom. Roman, however, cannot fathom where he's coming from and chides on modern human's "possessiveness". Richard wrangles that being possessive is a normal human's way of showing he cares. Roman then admits he is alien to such human behavior as he doesn't feel the same deep concern for him or for Alice. Richard gave up and warns him not to tell those cutting words to Alice. For sure, she'll be hurt as she worries for him the most. In fact, she has probably fallen asleep, waiting for him.
At the beach, Roman mulls on the thought alone. He's convinced that he must distance himself sometime or else he'll be someone's possession. He also finds it hard to believe that Alice awaits his return. But when he did go home, he finds her sleeping on the couch while the TV is on, an evident manifestation that she cares. He carries her to her room. She wakes up but keeps her silence. The next morning, he's gone.
Jacqueline visits Phillip to personally have him sign an important document. Phillip secretary then politely interrupts their conversation to tell him that Chairman Taylor has returned. It appears that Taylor is Phillip's cousin who claims he indecorously snatched the company.
The OTP is set to visit Alice parents. Richard and Alice waits for Roman outside her parent's house. There, Richard inquires if she plans to marry Roman for real. But she dismisses the idea, saying that there's a huge gap between human and monster. Her Dad then sees her car (more like Hilton's car since he lend it to her) and shouts for them to go out. Alice calls her Dad and together they wait for Roman's arrival. Her Dad is starting to get suspicious of Roman's absence, but right on cue, he appears on a very expensive luxury car. Much to her Dad's delight, the car is actually Roman's gift for him.
Alice assumes Roman acquired the car via loan and so she complains that she'll have to accept a commercial gig just to pay for it. But he swears he bought the car and already paid his debt. She's rather flabbergasted by his pronouncements and asks where he got the money. He casually announces that he robbed a bank. She's undeniably horrified and Roman can't help but chuckle. Obviously, he didn't rob a bank, though it's very possible he can. She violently strangles him for scaring her. Just in time, her Dad knocks and when he opens the door, Alice is sweetly sitting on Roman's lap, pretending to look at her baby photos.
Roman got a call from the police station that Grandma has clear his name. She even reprimands Hilton for not identifying the bad guy from the good. Further emphasizing that Roman is too handsome to be the assailant. On the way out, Grandma prods for her granddaughter and Roman possible relationship, but Alice is quick to stake her claim and dashes to hug Roman. Grandma and Hilton Saw the possessive gesture and dejectedly leave.
When they were alone, Alice is first to reconcile. She even suggests that they should call it quits since both of them are at fault. Roman agrees in exchange of a cherry juice.
The enemy was informed of Roman recent good deed and comments that the monster is as helpful as ever. He recalls the time when he was just a child who was running away from the police with his sickly Mom. He was so happy that Roman helped them escape. But when he learned of Roman's healing abilities, he blamed him for his Mom's demise.
Bill visits Alice at the film set. He tries to convince her to become a part of his experiment. But she dodges his jabs, saying that she has no plans of becoming his 'guinea pig' and warns that if he insists, she'll shout rape.
Philip is too early for his boxing class so he passes time talking with Roman. He shares that the exercise greatly help in improving his health. He is amenable that because of his inborn health frailties, his life is short. He has long embraced that fact. The only thing that matters to him is that every moment he spends is spectacular. Roman admires his positive outlook and remarks that not all people realize that. Some just neglect what they have in their desire to chase the things they don't have.
Roman prepares the ingredients for his dish. Alice, on the other hand, puts on his apron, intentionally or unintentionally embracing him in the process. He then jokes that he can't cook properly if she's hugging him. She immediately pulls away and while he is busy with his task, she muses on adopting more monsters. Once he's done cooking, he proudly spoon feeds his dishes to Alice So as not to hurt his feelings, she pretends to like the meal. But he misinterprets and forces her to eat some more.
Bill teams up to solve the missing corpse's case. They talk with the driver who first was first on the scene but the driver cannot remember anything suspicious that night. Bill then shows him the picture of the corpse's suit and the driver confirms it's the same cap the pervert was wearing. This is the confirmation Bill was waiting for. Bill is more convinced that his theory is correct. He believes that Alice blood awakened the corpse and in return, the revived corpse saved her. He also said that the corpse's blood has self-repairing characteristics that needs to be studied. Still, Hilton finds his outrageous theory impossible to believe.
That night, Hilton calls Alice and told her to be careful. He shares that though he doesn't believe Bill, all evidence supports that there might be monster on the loose. This statement obviously raises alarm.
And because of the dishes Roman cooked, Alice suffers from food poisoning. Roman quickly comes to her side to give her the 'special cure' but she insists that he brings her to the hospital instead. Seems she wants to save her third first kiss for her real boyfriend. But Roman didn't adhere to her wish and continues to force feeds his blood. After she's healed, he notices her erratic heartbeat and her obvious blushing. He then concludes that she's a real woman. She agrees, saying she's not only a woman but a goddess. She pushes him away and tells him to refrain from doing it again because Bill and Hilton are getting closer to the truth. It'll only be a matter of time before they discover that he is the dormant body. But Roman isn't a bit bothered because the worst that will happen is they'll hide in the deep forest and she'll live like a boor.
Next day Alice was ridiculously posing for the camera at an old mansion. Roman complains that she's acting silly again. She ask why he took her there. He explains that this is one way of retrieving his memory. He shares that he feels a sense of familiarity when he saw the woman and her child. He presupposes that maybe he helped the same kind of pair before. Basically, what they are doing there is reliving his past, so he urges her to be serious in her poses. Looking at the grand manor, Alice guesses that Roman's death was a crime of passion and his wife might have killed him. But he is fast to negate her assumptions as he is sure he's not married due to the absence of female items in his house. Alice tries again. This time, maybe he was not married to a woman, but a man. He begs her to maintain a normal thinking. He assures that he doesn't have that kind of inclination. In fact, he doesn't like anyone anymore. He sadly confesses that his long life destroyed all of his affections and passions. She tries to lift the sad mood and tells him to be more optimistic because good things are bound to happen as long as he lives
