Clarita turned her head and found Atma looking at her deeply. Clarita nodded briefly, then let Atma into her room. The man immediately walked towards Clarita's bed, where the baby twins were lying and playing.
Clarita looked away for a moment, then walked out of the room. He looked for his younger brother, who turned out to be preparing a photo session for Clarita's cake products. Dean looked very serious about setting up the photoshoot area. There, Bara helped his younger brother prepare everything. The man was in charge of attaching the background for the photo while Dean prepared the background.
Clarita smiled happily, just as the Maghrib call to prayer sounded. Dean had finished taking photos of Clarita's cake, so he hurried to carry out her duties, while Atma and Bara chose to go home and clean up.
After Dean had finished carrying out her obligations, she and Clarita were enjoying the dinner menu made by Clarita. "Oh yes, Sis, it turns out that Bro Bara is
“Ah yes, De. Why?" Clarita asked, surprised to find Dean standing behind her. Clarita quickly closed the application and put her cellphone away.To be honest, Dean had long been suspicious of Clarita. The reason is that the woman's cellphone is classified as a valuable cellphone, and its price is even the same as the latest motorbike. Meanwhile, she knows that Clarita has been having difficulty earning money. However, Dean didn't have the heart to ask that deeply about privacy; he tried to be kind, thinking that if it was someone's valuable relic for him, then Clarita wouldn't want to sell it."Ah no, let's have breakfast, sis." Dean took a sitting position in the chair opposite Clarita, and the woman spooned rice and side dishes into her plate. Then eat the dish with a cheerful face. She forgot her suspicions when bite after bite of Clarita's cooking went down her throat.While enjoying her breakfast, she heard a knock from the main door. Clarita got up a
Atma was stunned; he didn't know what to say. He gathered all his courage. And he said how he felt. "Whether it's me or not, I will be responsible for you." Without realising it, clear beads fell down his cheeks, dripping onto Atma's cheeks."Don't cry; I hate myself when you cry." Clarita's crying became louder, her body fell, and she hoped that the man was not Atma, but on the other hand, she felt comfortable with the man beneath her."Tell me if it's not you," said Clarita in a sad voice.Clarita's eyes stared deeply into Atma's eyes; she looked for any lies that the man might be hiding. "I actually wish it were me who did it."Clarita's words dashed Atma's hopes. The man hoped that Clarita would accept reality, but he also couldn't force her, especially since he didn't have accurate proof of the fact that he was the biological father of the baby twins."Forget it," said Clarita as she tried to get up from her position. Atma observed Clarita, an
Atma noticed the presence of another car following him since he left the hotel where Clarita delivered the cake her customer ordered. He also tried to find out who owned the car. Clarita observed Atma's suspicious movements.The woman turned her head to look behind her. His eyes stared at the row of numbers lined up on the silver car's vehicle number. "Do you know?" Atma asked Clarita with a curious expression.Meanwhile, the woman shook her head with unfocused eyes. Atma knew that the woman sitting next to him was lying; it was clear from the woman's movements. "Go straight to the mall." Atma asked Clarita."Hah? Yes, straight away." Clarita answered with her eyes glancing at the car rearview.Atma continued to drive his car at standard speed without rushing so as not to give the impression of the stalker running away. Clarita also didn't mind Atma's actions; for some reason, in her heart, she was sure that the man would take care of her. There is always
“Milk contains lots of vitamins, so what's the difference?” Atma said, deliberately provoking Clarita to argue with him."It's definitely different, Atma. I’m not used to drinking it anyway –“ Clarita paused as she thought about how to convey her finances to Atma.“Why anyway? There is no need to think about costs; I will pay them. You still remember what I said this morning, right?" Clarita reflexively nodded her head. Like it or not, Clarita obeyed Atma's words. The woman continued her footsteps, following Atma's long legs, who were walking in front of her.The man's footsteps stopped right in the area for vegetables, meat, and other kitchen necessities. Atma asked Clarita to take whatever she needed home. Clarita was about to protest, but Atma first explained that he did that wit
“I'm just… not ready to accept the truth.”Atma glanced out of the corner of his eye. "Until when?" Clarita was silent; to be honest, she didn't know how long she would remain silent and trapped in her past. “Cla, we can live side by side with our past. Don't be too afraid; I know you are a strong woman. In fact, you're the only one who can resist my charm," said Atma confidently."Tsk, what the hell?" Clarita chuckled in annoyance."So do you want to avoid the one behind you?" Atma asked as he glanced at the back of the car. Clarita was silent for a moment. She took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly. She shook her head and tried to smile.Atma's car was walking casually on the streets of Semarang City, as if he pretended not to know that other people were following his car. He tried to be as calm and normal as possible. Not long after, Atma's car arrived at the housing complex where s0he lived.After the car had gone t
“Oh, invite us to eat here. We have lunch together." Atma seemed to ignore the anxiety of the woman in front of him. "Stay cool. Let's try it slowly; listen first before deciding. Okay?" Atma asked. Clarita closed her eyes for a moment, then nodded as if agreeing to Atma's request.The man walked into the living room. He closed the door and said, "Let's have lunch first." The four people sitting in the guest chairs looked at Atma's face in disbelief; the man they had only seen in newspapers or on social media was now in front of them in a style that was the opposite of what they saw."Why are you quiet?" said Atma, looking at the guests who were still silent in their places."Ah, yes," they said simultaneously and followed Atma's footsteps.Clarita had just come out of the k
"I don't care who that man is anymore; I want to live in peace," said Clarita, looking sharply at Raya. The woman pursed her lips uncomfortably.Clarita's old friend looked at her in disbelief. "Could it be that that man..." Raga's words were stopped when Ganes patted his arm, reminding him not to disappoint Clarita."There's nothing more to talk about, right?" asked Clarita, sighing. "It's getting late; I have a lot of work and orders.""Cla, wait, can we just look at your child for a moment?" asked Raya, looking at Clarita full of hope.Clarita seemed to think for a moment, then she shook her head. “They just came out of the hospital; he can't be visited carelessly. Maybe another time." Clarita's answer made the four of them sigh in resignation.With a heavy heart, they stepped out, and Clarita took them to the terrace of the house. "Cla, could we play here another time?"Clarita just nodded briefly, then closed the door and walked i
"Yes, I am the father of your lover, Atma." Clarita looked at him flatly; she had expected that the man would gradually come to her.“Did you come here with a special purpose?” Clarita asked politely.The man chuckled slightly, then took out an envelope and handed it to Clarita. "Is this enough?"Clarita stared flatly at the envelope. “Do you think I seduced your son? Or do you think I can be paid with your money?”"Aren't you a hired woman? In fact, you are pregnant without a husband; what is it called if not payment?" said the man with a grin that showed authority.Clarita didn't reply to the man's words; she just said, "You don't need to bother spending your money on me, because I won't accept it. If you ask me to leave your son, please give me one strong reason why I should stay away from him."Clarita looked deeply at the man's face, which was starting to wrinkle. She even looked at the cake without any enthusias
Clarita smiled in response to her sister's words. "So, it was true that it was Mom who trapped you, but I should have been there, not you. At first, I was asked by Brahma to go there to serve his clients, but in the middle of the road, my car tyre was punctured, and I was delayed there. When I arrived at the hotel, according to the number that Brahma gave, it turned out that you and Byan were already having sex. Even though you should be in the next room.""So? The one who should be in that room is you and me next toroom?"Clarita asked in disbelief.Danila nodded, and he took one of his brother's hands. "Yes, sis, because of the wrong room, Brahma got angry and kicked out sis with the alibi of family disgrace. About the hot video sent to your cell phone, that's also his job. I didn't know that that night, Brahma put up a surveillance camera that recorded our activities, and yes, everything was arranged according to his plan so that you and Atma would be further a
“As Danila Ayudia's biological parent, I certainly leave all decisions in our daughter's hands. Her happiness is our happiness too," said Ganesha, ignoring Danila's question."What? Biological parents? It means?" Danila asked, confused, and threw a demanding look at Bram."Honey, Aunt Ratasya, and Uncle Ganesha are your biological parents, who have been hidden by Mr. Brahma; they...""What?" shouted Danila in disbelief. "So? The one you were talking about during the trial wasme." Danila asked in disbelief."Yes, dear, we are your biological parents. It all starts from... .” Ganesha began to tell how Brahma took Danila from him. Starting from when Brahma seized his property to the kidnapping case and his imprisonmentDanila listened to his parents' words very carefully; she didn't want to miss a single word. Until she came to the story about the murder attempt that Brahma had made on them, Danila groaned under her breath, say
Excited, Danila's heart became increasingly convinced that Bram really wanted to sell him. "Wear this," said Bram as he handed over a black cloth. “Use it and don't ask too many questions!”Danila was forced to obey Bram's orders. She wrapped the cloth around hers eyes, and in an instant, her vision went dark. Danila could only feel that the car was moving again. In her heart, she said a prayer so that she could be separated from the man who would use her body.Bram's car walked for a long time along the paved road, until the car's engine died. The sound of the car door opening and closing alternately After that, she felt the car door beside her open, and an arm gently grabbed her hand. However, she doubted that the arm belonged to Bram because, from the fingers that touched her arm, she was absolutely sure that the fingers belonged to a woman.'Did Mas Bram sell me to a pimp?' Danila asked himself.She got out of the car with the hel
“I want to be like this forever. See, you can do it." "You're making me almost have a heart attack. Honey, only death can separate our love story. I will always try to be by your side," said Byan, making Clarita's heart warm and the butterflies in her stomach flutter. "By, tonight, let's just use this, okay? The event was on the beach; I also couldn't wear open clothes because I was allergic to the cold. Luckily, my husband isn't cold," Clarita joked as she looked at her spoiled husband. "Honey," said Byan, embarrassed. The man scratched the nape of his neck, which didn't itch. The sun began to shift, leaving the sky orange with the sound of cars passing by. Clarita had just come out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her head, while her husband was still busy at his work desk, which was next to their bedroom. Byan deliberately designed his work space in the room by only providing a glass partition between the room and his work space.
“The company collapsed, and all large companies postponed signing the MOU. Stock prices have dropped drastically, and several vendors are demanding immediate repayment. Where have you been?” Mahen said as he let his son read the entire contents of the folder.“We can handle this all.""In what way? Now the company no longer has any cooperation; okay, it's still there, but it's just a small project. Do you think it can pay all the bills? Not to mention employee salaries. You should think about that; you should focus on growing this company instead of taking care of that sick woman and her child."“Shut up, Dad! Do you know who I am like this because of? Because you! You are the one who always thwarts my love; you are the one who always destroys my own life affairs. Why? Because you want to look perfect, even though you are far worse than a dead rat." Atma spoke in a high tone. “I'm leaving this company!” Atma shouted as he walk
"It's okay, shall we go back in? It looks like it's time for the trial to start again." They nodded in agreement with Byan's words. They walked hand in hand again into the courtroom. This afternoon, they will hear the judge's decision regarding Brahma's actions many years ago."By," Clarita whispered, grabbing Byan's arm. The man turned his head and stared at his wife calmly. "I'm scared."“Leave everything to Allah, OK? Everything will be fine." Clarita sighed as she tightened her grip on her husband's hand.The judge and all the staff began to enter the room, after which Brahma, the main suspect, returned to the courtroom. After the trial reopened, the public prosecutor read out his indictment again."We hereby decide to sentence Brahma Wijaya to 25 years in prison under this article."Clarita's eyeballs almost fell out of place when she heard the judge's verdict on the man she had always considered her father. Likewise with Danila, the wom
"I'm glad you're worried about me, but believe that Allah will always protect every one of His servants." With a heavy heart, Clarita finally nodded and rested her head on her husband's broad chest.Seconds turned into minutes, minutes turned into hours, and hours turned into days. Now the day had come when Brahma would get the verdict for his mistakes. That morning, Clarita was ready at the dining table.The clothes she wore were very simple but still looked beautiful. She wore jeans combined with a flannel shirt. Clarita didn't look like a mother of two. Byan also wore clothes that matched his wife. Today they will come to court, where they have made a promise to Davin's family and Danila, who will come with Bram.After finishing breakfast, Clarita and Byan rushed into the car, but before that, they took the time to say goodbye to Dean, who decided to stay at home to look after the baby twins. It is impossible for Clarita to bring her baby to court; apart from
“We can only surrender, Dan. We have tried to uphold justice; hopefully everything will be according to our expectations."Time seemed to pass so quickly, and the days passed so quickly. Since yesterday's first trial, Danila's life has felt so good and light. She still works in Clarita's cake shop. Meanwhile, their romantic relationship is still going well. Bram never demanded a relationship with this man but instead directed Danila to become a more elegant woman.Unlike Atma, the man actually approached Hanna more aggressively. He didn't even care about the rejection that Hanna kept giving him. Hanna is his last hope for getting his grandmother's inheritance, and he doesn't give up on getting Hanna back.“Han, trust me. I don't only need Riani; to be honest, I still have feelings for you, but I'm too embarrassed to admit it. Is there no more chance for me? Can't we start our love story again?"Hanna looked at Atma doubtfully. The man seemed p
"The first trial will be held four days from today, sir," said the police officer who escorted them to the lobby of the police station."Okay, sir, I hope everything can be according to my expectations and certainly in accordance with the applicable articles," replied Byan politely. The policeman nodded with a friendly smile.After that, Byan drove back to his residence. The days passed so quickly; everything happened out of Clarita's control. All the questions in her life, one by one, began to open up and reveal the truth.The man's mind was still caught up in his desire to be separated from Mahen; he continued to try to approach Hanna in various ways. The illness that Riani suffered was the only tool he could use to force Hanna to marry him, especially after the results of the examination came out. The bone marrow that Atma has is very suitable for Riani, which makes it easier for him to urge Hanna to accept his offer.In contrast to Danila, this woman'
