Chapter 96

All the way home Arka was busy thinking about what she should tell Naya at home?

What if Naya asks why he left suddenly last night without telling her?

What if Naya asked her where she went last night?

What if Naya also asked what she had done to disappear all day without any news?

Arka was honestly confused. He was confused and scared. There was no way she was telling the truth. She left in the middle of the night when Mauren called her for help and then in the morning suddenly woke up in a state that was very difficult to explain.

If Naya found out about it, Arka was sure there would be no mercy for her.

"What should I tell her later?"

Regret? Yes, of course Arka regretted it. If only she hadn't gone to Mauren's house last night. Maybe that incident wouldn't have happened. After all, Arka didn't see any danger at Mauren's house last night. 

In contrast, Arka was busy thinking about what the man would say when Naya asked his where she had been all day. Naya was impatiently waiting for her husband's return.

Naya was really anxious. She wanted to meet the man who had made her golden since last night. The man who almost frustrated her because there was no news since last night.

Until exactly 9pm, Naya finally heard the sound of a car coming. Hearing this, she immediately ran out of the house. Instantly a happy smile appeared on her lips when she saw her husband's car coming.

Seeing his wife waiting for him at the door made Arka immediately scared. He didn't expect Naya to be waiting for him. Arka had been stalling home, waiting for the night so that when he arrived home Naya would already be asleep. But lo and behold, she was waiting for him at the door.

Seeing her husband get out of the car and walk towards her, Naya went straight to him and hugged him. Naya's actions certainly surprised Arka.

"Where have you been? Why did you leave and there's no news? I was worried about you!" Naya said after removing her hug.

Arka fell silent. She could see the look in Naya's eyes, the look of anxiety. Instantly, Arka felt even more guilty. 

"There's no need to say anything, mom already told me everything. You should have told me that you went to meet your friend to talk about work. You must be tired, come on in. I've cooked your favorite meal."

Before Arka could make a sound, the man had already been pulled into the house. It could be seen that there was quite a lot of food on the dining table. It turned out that Naya was cooking for him.

"Look, all this is your favorite food. Do you want to eat right away?"

"No, I don't. I want to take a shower first, is that okay?"

Naya nodded. She also said that she had prepared all the necessities for her husband's bath and change of clothes.

....

Again, Arka did not bathe immediately. Instead, the man daydreamed for quite a while. 

While looking at her face from the reflection of the mirror in front of him, Arka recalled what had happened to his today. 

When he suddenly woke up and was already on Mauren's bed. Coupled with the sound of crying and swearing that Mauren said to him. Everything was still very clearly remembered in her mind.

"Argghh!!! Why did all this have to happen? What should I do now? I'm sorry Naya, I'm sorry."

Arka chose to stand still under the shower water. The man did not move at all. It felt very claustrophobic just to breathe.

"What took Arka so long? She doesn't usually take so long to shower," Naya muttered as she continued to stare at the bathroom door.

For some reason, Naya felt that Arka's attitude had changed. She was aware of Arka's attitude on the way home, but she chose to put it out of her mind and treat Arka as best she could.

:::

Mauren couldn't stop crying. Regret? Obviously she was very sorry about what had happened between her and Arka. 

"I'm sorry Mr. Arka, I had to do it."

Mauren really felt very humiliated right now. If she could, she probably wouldn't have wanted the incident between her and Arka to happen.

"Already, there's no point in you crying. Everything has already happened, right? The most important thing is that all our plans are going well."

With a gaze full of disappointment Mauren looked at the man who was currently in front of him. Evil, perhaps that word was not enough to describe how evil that man was.

"Why have regrets anyway? You have nothing to lose. If Arka wants to take responsibility, isn't that good? You can become a wealthy mistress. You should know how rich Arka's family is."

"For you, wealth is more than anything. As for me, my honor is much more important."

"What are you keeping your honor for? Both your parents are dead, no one will care about your honor anymore."
