Sure enough, what Jason feared began to happen. Serena, who had just finished refreshing her body, had an uninvited guest. Not even expected at all.
"Serena! Are you inside?"
"Hey, is anyone inside?"
Many more shrieks were heard from several neighbors who were already in front of her gate. Still with a towel perched on top of her head, Serena appeared. The smile on the girl's beautiful face immediately faded when she saw the stares of the people who saw her. Some of them chuckled as if they were disgusted by her wet hair wrapped in a towel.
"Didn't you wash your hair last night?" quipped one of the men.
"Sorry, what's going on?" asked Serena who still didn't understand the meaning of the question just now.
"No need to be hypocritical. What a cheater. How many men have you slept with?" a
A voice just now diverted Serena's attention. An old woman smiled kindly at her as she bowed."Ma'am Ira," Serena murmured with teary eyes. The girl immediately hugged the head housemaid who was still faithfully at her late father's house. The two women of different ages missed each other."Miss Serena is getting prettier," complimented the woman. "I miss you so much.""Me too. Are you well? Why are you still working?" asked Serena, who was now busy scrutinizing the appearance of the number one trusted servant in the house. She had almost completely bleached hair and wrinkled skin. Not to mention her body that is assisted by a cane to stand. Ma'am Ira really deserved to take her pension.&nb
Jason, who could still hear Serena's former voice, only turned his head for a moment without intending to say anything. His feet went back to the exit of the cafe. That action made Barra furious. Then he hurried to catch up with Jason who had arrived at the parking area."What are you doing?" asked Jason when he realized that someone was following him. Barra, who had clenched both hands, was about to throw a punch at Jason, but his intention was paused when he saw the man's hand raised into the air."Watch where you are right now. Want to give Erlangga Hotel a bad reputation by attacking me in this open room?" Jason sneered straight to the point. He smiled wryly as he shook his head. "Your emotions are always out of control. It's true. Serena saw fit to leave you. So childish.""You!!!""You better clear her name as soon as possible. At least it can reduce the burden she suffers." Jason opened his car door and prepared to leave B
Serena moved backward as soon as the figure stepped forward to get closer. Her eyes held a wary look."Baby," said the middle-aged woman who was now kneeling in front of her."Madam." Ma'am Ira quickly approached, but her steps were halted when she saw her former employer's shake of her head."Ma'am, whose pie was that?" Silence. A sign that her guess was right. No wonder she hadn't answered her question earlier."Can we talk, Baby? Please." Serena ignored the request. She glanced at her mommy for a moment and then turned her body around. Choosing to escape to her room to vent the anger that had been suffocating her chest. H
Serena's room was already noisy early in the morning. The girl was nagging Jason because she still didn't have the confidence to appear in public later."Don't you think of me as a brother?" snapped Jason while holding back his irritation.Serena nodded slowly with her lips forward."Then listen to my words. You just need to shut up, smile and wave. No need to comment if it doesn't make you comfortable. Understood?" Jason said giving instructions. At the same time, Mrs. Adhisty appeared. She smiled as soon as she saw the harmonious scene in front of her eyes. "Are there any problems hemm?" she asked softly."Huh. It's a good thing you came here on time. Look. your daughter daughter here. Her stubbornness is unmatched," Jason argued, earning a sharp glance from the girl. "What?" he challenged a
"Daddy loves you very much, Serena," Jason said from the back. The words were evidenced by the many pictures of Serena that were there. Yes. Only her face is visible in the row of figurines. From the time she was born until she became a teenager and even an adult like now."This?" The girl pointed to a picture of herself when she was about to go to the orphanage a few months ago. It was also the last one where her daddy displayed her portrait."Little did you know that Daddy always sent his men to follow you," Jason explained as if answering the question mark in her mind."That's right, Baby," said Mrs. Adhisty who was now approaching him from the side. She also recalled the time when she couldn't get close to Serena at that time. Yes. After the divorce, Mrs. Adhisty could not see her from a c
"I'm sure that's not how it happened," Jason said as the car he was driving moved away from Mr. Jimmy's residence.Serena glanced at him for a moment and then smiled slightly."Sandra must have said something, right? She looks so jealous.""Whatever. I don't care," muttered Serena who looked relaxed."Hmm yes. You still have a lot of things to think about. Especially about the company.""Come on, my annoying brother. I'm not really interested in the company at all," Serena complained."You have to learn. I'll leave it to you one day.""No, you won't. I want you to take care of it," Serena snapped. "Don't ever leave me."Jason laughed at her words. "Wow!! Since when did you become this dependent?""Since I found out you're capable of making more money," grinned the girl who was immediately rewarded with a hard smack on her forehead area.
"Let go of me!" snapped Serena as she tried to get out of her ex's arms. Unfortunately, it didn't sound like an order. Barra tightened her embrace even more. "You can slap me after this. Go ahead." What a stubborn person. No matter how hard Serena tried the result would be in vain. I swear, now she can only surrender. Let Barra lock her body from behind."I still love you, Serena. Can't we be together?""No," the girl replied quickly."Why?" asked Barra who had now released her embrace. "Did you... accept Jason's proposal?"Serena's forehead furrowed instantly. How did Barra know that Jason had said so? It made the girl wonder."Sorry. I'm just talking out of turn. But it seems like he's interested in you." Barra looked mischievous. But Serena didn't care. The most important thing was that what was in her heart had been conveyed. That's what's on her mind right now."Why, are you going to marry him?" Barra asked again because his beautiful ex
"Do you want to kill me?" David, who received a curse from his boss and little friend, just smiled. He didn't care what Barra said just now."If you were five minutes late. I would have been lifeless," Barra snapped with a sour face."God says otherwise, doesn't he? You're fine," David argued bravely. "That horrible incident has a silver lining. You can know that Miss Serena still loves you. Isn't that good?" Yes. The assistant was right. Now her eyes were moving back and forth in search of Serena."She's with Jason. He took her to the cafeteria for lunch," explained David who could guess the contents of Barra's mind. Serena, on the other hand, looked restless. Only a few mouthfuls of food were able to enter
Serena looked so graceful wearing a white kebaya with an elegant design wrapped around her body. Mrs. Adhisty led her down the stairs without letting go of her hand. Nervous. That's what the beautiful girl was feeling. She was seated not far from the man who would soon perform the Ijab Kabul in a matter of minutes. Not unlike Serena, Barra didn't even dare to look at his future wife because he was busy remembering the memorization that the committee of the wedding had said earlier. It was clear that he didn't want to repeat his mistake when he made the sacred vows of marriage later. So the GM of Erlangga Hotel chose to look down."How is it? Is there anything else you want to wait for?" asked Mr. Committee of the wedding. Both sides of the bride and groom agreed to start the marriage contract process. Since there was no family from Daddy's side left, a guardian from the government was appointed to mediate. It took a while b
Short, concise, and clear. That's what Tita said just now. Tora's wife, who was originally rude and selfish, took Serena's hand and led her to touch her slightly bulging belly. "Let's raise this child together, Serena." Serena still didn't move. Her eyes were teary because she didn't know what to say in response to her future sister-in-law's request."You want to, right? This child will have two mothers and fathers. He'll be so happy," Tita murmured."I-yes, Sis," Rena finally replied. Then the two hugged each other to channel their feelings of love between women. Not long after, Barra came to separate them."Hurry up, sweetheart. You'll be late," Barra whispered later.Serena nodded slowly. Her smile was perfect as she descended the escalator that facilitated her steps toward the airline gate. Mrs. Adhisty gently rubbed her arm to give her peace of mind.***["Look here, you can play baseball too!"] Barra now confidently swung his a
"I trust you with everything.""No, you don't. I want us to take care of it ourselves," Barra broke off, not wanting to hear any argument. "Please, darling!" The puppy eyes and hopeful face of an Adibarra Erlangga made Serena nod while smiling. Inevitably, she moved to unbuckle the seat belt that was still attached to his fiancé's body."Thanks, honey," Barra murmured just as her girl was about to inch back. "Don't want to reply hemm?""No," Serena quickly denied. "We won't get in. Look at Papa standing on the balcony!""Excuses," Barra sneered. Serena seemed to turn off her sense of hearing. She opened the car door immediately. The first sight she saw made her glance lazily. There was Tita, who was sitting in the living room relaxing while enjoying her pregnant milk."Don't mind her. Let's go inside!""No. I'll just go home. It's getting late.""You haven't said goodbye to Papa yet," Barra said, making Serena hesitate. Tita, who saw the
The beautiful green scenery made Serena's smile perfect. The girl carried her fiancé with her left hand, which carried a basket filled with lunch boxes that she had brought from home. The perfume with the scent of citrus blossom that emanated from the body of Barra's fiancé seemed to blend in with nature. It was refreshing and made the feelings it gave a positive impression."Aunt Cintya's daughter is a top therapist for you. The proof is in the therapy," Serena murmured with a smile."Her voice is like a mosquito. It's shrill and annoying. That's why you can't help but obey," said Barra, who was now raising and lowering her right wrist."If it's not like that, I'm sure you will recover for a long time. If we get married, you'll be able to carry me for photo shoots," said Serena while holding back her laughter."You can. You have to," Barra said with a high level of confidence. "Within the next two months, you'll see your brother back to his old self.""And
Tora's wife, who felt offended, was about to come forward to attack Sandra, but her steps stopped when she remembered the bitter experience of losing her baby a few months ago."You better focus on pregnancy. Already want to be a mother but her behavior hasn't changed at all," snapped Sandra who immediately disappeared from Tita's sight. Her breath was still hunting until she returned to Jason who was still in his original position. She was so annoyed that she grabbed the man's glass and drank the contents until it was empty."Why?" asked Sandra as she saw Jason's sardonic gaze."You took my glass," sneered the man.Sandra blinked quickly. Then look at his glass glass which is still half full. He felt embarrassed. "Sorry. I'll replace your other glass.""No need," Jason snapped immediately. Inevitably he looked at Sandra who looked like she was exhausted. "Have you been scratching?" he asked later. Sandra did not answer, but her eyes glanced sharp
Serena immediately turned her head when she heard a knock from outside. She nodded as if giving a code to the team of makeup artists who had just beautified her appearance."You're beautiful," Jason murmured with a smile. "Daddy would be happy if he were here right now.""Yeah. He'd probably stop this show. Especially if Daddy finds out you're marrying the son of his archenemy."That remark made Jason chuckle. "You're such a smartass. Daddy is like that. He would do anything to make you happy. Even when he found out that you were going out with Barra that time."Serena's eyebrows immediately went up one side. Astonished by Jason's words a few seconds ago. Then her foster brother pulled up a chair so he could talk a little longer. Inevitably his eyes directed Serena to do the same."You are always under Daddy's supervision 1x24 hours. Until the moment you crossed over to the orphanage was the last time he hired a secret bodyguard for you.""Forgot? Once you we
"Don't argue. Or I'll kidnap you right now," Barra muttered with a glint in her eye. "Prepare yourself, darling. The day after tomorrow, our engagement ceremony will be held at the Erlangga Hotel at 7 pm." Afterward, the man gave Serena a brief peck on the cheek and then moved out of the car. Calling Serena's driver before finally waving goodbye with a wink. Having just thrown herself on the bed, the girl was again surprised by a video call from her lover. She smiled perfectly after cleaning up from the event.["Hi, beautiful. What are you doing?"] Serena did not answer. Just showing her row of clean and neat white teeth.["You're cosplaying as a toothpaste commercial, right?"] Suddenly the girl immediately got up from her lying position. Then looked at Barra with a sullen face.["Even if you're angry, you look beautiful. You're still beautiful no matter what."] And there are many more pussycat sentences conveyed by Barra. Se
The main event of the seven-month thanksgiving for Fina's pregnancy was over. The guests were invited to mingle and taste the dishes that had been provided."Congratulations, Fina. I hope you're healthy until the birth," Serena murmured while gently stroking her best friend's bulging belly. There was a feeling of joy mixed with envy that she was harboring. Meanwhile, Fina, who understood very well how the sad face changed, immediately grasped her hand."My child will be your child too. He will call you Mama too, Serena. It's just a matter of conceiving and giving birth. You will also be considered as his mother," Fina said with tears already welling up. The two of them hugged each other tightly. No one spoke until Fina's husband approached them."I'm jealous of you guys. It's like brother and sister."Fina hurriedly wiped her tears, then gently elbowed her husband's arm. "Our son will have two mothers. Right, Hubby?"Fina's husband, who knew how Serena was, n
Instead of answering Serena's question, Barra landed a kiss on his beautiful ex's luscious lips. Making the master shocked beyond belief."You!!"Barra kissed Serena. Suddenly, his beautiful girl's tanned eyes widened perfectly. Her lips parted in an attempt to say something, but unfortunately, her tongue was suddenly paralyzed."I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you. So let's get married quickly," Barra muttered later. The girl frowned as she changed her sitting position to straight ahead. No longer facing each other with the ex who had always been able to make her heart beat wildly lately. Meanwhile, Mrs. Adhisty, who was about to call her daughter, also stopped her steps at the doorway. Realizing that the two of them were having a serious conversation, she backed off. Barra moved closer, eroding the distance between them. He no longer cared about his clavicle, which was sore due to the movement of his
