Ernawati parted the curtains in the six by six square meter room so that direct sunlight entered the room. Don't forget to open the window, so that clean air can enter to replace the stuffy air in the room."Wake up, Kirana, it's noon. You don't want to miss breakfast together, do you." Ernawati came close to touch her daughter's hair and then rubbed her head affectionately. Kirana, who came home late at night, did not have time to meet her mother because she did not want to disturb her rest. However, the girl really missed her mother, especially because she had just returned to Wijaya's residence, after three years choosing to be alone in the village to calm her mind."Good morning my beautiful mother," she muttered, blinking his eyes from the glare. The almost twenty year old girl immediately kissed her mother's cheek, which Erna returned with a hug on her shoulder."Go to the bathroom and clean yourself up, because I'm going to tellRelated chapters
Forced Marriage Chapter 25
Chapter 25The atmosphere that morning should have been more pleasant because the whole family was in the same house. But in reality it is not. Kirana who was sitting on the dining chair looked at the presence of two people walking hand in hand towards her place. His focus and attention was on the woman behind her own brother, who was looking down with a bulging stomach. Even Melati's hands were intertwined, a sign that the woman was afraid of the gaze of the girl in front of her. Even though Ernawati and Candra told her to sit down and enjoy her breakfast, in fact Kirana's sharp gaze made Melati uncomfortable.Edwin, who saw his sister's unkind gaze, immediately cleared his throat and lightened the atmosphere by handing out some food for Kirana to enjoy."Ten days abroad will definitely make you miss Indonesian specialties. Eat it, Kirana. You know, this mother's cooking must have made it special to welcome you." Edwin put down a piece of his si

Chapter 26"Why is your face suddenly gloomy, Ed?" Jovan looked at the unusual face of his best friend and boss. The man even massaged his heavy head."I guess because I didn't get enough sleep last night, or I don't know," replied Edwin simply. But his chest felt uncharacteristically restless. However, work must come first and he must follow procedures and review his projects in other cities."If only I was in power, I would tell you to stay home and read the newspaper. But it can't be like that, the project in Surabaya requires your presence there to monitor and see their activities. And as I have investigated previously, there is a flow of funds that 's been used improperly, and it goes into some people's pockets and puts our project on the line a bit. We've almost lost a few digits, and the numbers keep pouring in regularly, Ed." Jovan said at length, explaining one more time for Edwin to understand. Even though she guessed that the man who had just le

Chapter 27"Why do we have to go anyway, Mom. I just want to stay at home. Besides, I'm too lazy to meet Aunt Anita and Uncle Teguh." Kirana pursed her lips when Ernawati insisted on asking her to go to her uncle and aunt's house."Kirana, mother can't bear to refuse their invitation. Besides, what's wrong with getting together once in a while considering that you haven't seen them again after three years. After all, Vienna and your grandfather went to the hospital, so it's okay."Kirana remembers Melati. A good opportunity to leave him alone in that big house."Okay, if you insist," added Kirana while getting ready.The two of them walked towards the yard, where a white car was ready to take them off. Before actually driving, Ernawati looked up where Melati's room was brightly lit. Previously he knocked softly on the door to say goodbye, but the pregnant woman did not answer his words. And Ernawati understands that Melati is not used to it.******The sound of footsteps made Melati o

Chapter 28Edwin's eyes darkened, staring intently at the two of them. When the man almost accepted Melati, if the woman wanted to change slowly. But what he saw now seemed to explain who Melati and the man in front of her really were. A despicable couple who do perverts do not deserve his sympathy. And what's even more embarrassing is what the two of them did in their own room. Whoever is in his position, will definitely not stand still and will act anarchically.The man immediately carried Melati in his arms, then passed Edwin whose hands were still clenched into fists, who seemed reluctant to watch the two pass. Edwin looked away in extreme disgust.Suddenly the light came on. Which instantly made the place ablaze.Meanwhile, the man immediately carried Melati to his car. Jovan, who had just returned from behind, saw someone swiftly passing not far from where he was standing.Unfortunately, he didn't get to see the man's face, but Edwin's growl and shout from upstairs made his att

Chapter 29"Wake up, Mel, you've been asleep for too long. Don't you want to look at me and scold a coward like me? Wake up and say whatever's on your heart." Pabian looked down with bloodshot eyes. I can't bear to see the condition of the woman who is struggling with the pain. If only he had fulfilled his promise to Melati, of course they would be happy now and Melati would not have to live in Edwin's house, which unfortunately is also the house occupied by Kirana, his lover.Their relationship is very good, until Pabian promises marriage to cover up the shame that Melati feels. He wanted to comfort her as best he could and be her protector. However, when the wedding day arrived, he disappointed Melati."Leave and don't bother him. Go back to your room and rest!" Edwin pulled the man's shirt away. Immediately let go of the hands of the two as if they felt uncomfortable.In front of Edwin, Pabian did not dare to challenge. The man looked

Chapter 30Melati woke up at last as the sun was about to reach the west end. The dim twilight soon came when Edwin decided to close the windows and curtains and turn on the light so the room wouldn't be pitch black.Melati lay weak. He felt pain all over his body especially in the lower part that was very painful.Fortunately, the lecherous man did not have time to do so until he brought in a savior angel to avoid him from this depraved act."Melati, are you awake?" Edwin came closer and looked at the woman who was grimacing. He knew the pain must be raging all over her body. As a man, he also seemed to feel the pain that was felt by him.Melati slowly tried to get up and grabbed her drink, leaving Edwin to tidy up some clothes and reluctant to answer."Let me take care of you," said Edwin again as he approached Melati's bedside, then grabbed the glass and straw, pointing it at Melati's mouth so she could drink it easily.

Chapter 31"Mr. Edwin, you'd better get out first, because we're going to check on the patient. Please." The female nurse said and told her to immediately leave the room where Melati was lying with the remnants of sobs. His heart felt sad and sad to see Melati's current state, even though she didn't know what really happened, but she could feel how deeply she was hurt after what happened to her.Edwin paced around restlessly then when he remembered something, he immediately contacted Jovan. In the third call, the sound immediately connected."Sorry, I just finished taking a shower. What do you want to talk about?" asked Jovan on the other end, knowing that Edwin would call him if there was anything important."Have you checked the CCTV at home? What did you find?" Edwin asked impatiently.Jovan's voice sounded a sigh, before finally speaking again."The CCTV footage showed that during that incident, even the security gu

Chapter 32Edwin went straight to the bathroom in the room where Melati was being treated, after the man received a paper bag containing some clothes for him, which Jonathan ordered directly. The man who is still single even refuses when Edwin wants to replace the costs that have been incurred.Meanwhile Jonathan himself immediately went into his sister's room, where Pabian was pensive, staring at the night sky from the window that was deliberately opened. Apparently, Pabian and Melati's rooms were only a block away.Pabian turned his head, where his brother was standing with his hands in his pants pockets, walking closer to him."From the look on your face, it looks like you've heard the story." Pabian opened his voice. Jonathan nodded, confirming what his brother had said."I met Edwin before I came here." Pabian snorted in annoyance."That guy must be blaming me for everything that happened, right? Even though I'm disappointed

Forced Marriage Chapter 89
Chapter 89With both arms folded, Edwin stood right beside the bed. There was someone lying there, still pale with a bandaged head. And Edwin was still loyally waiting for him to wake up, feeling exasperated, angry, and happy at the same time, remembering that his friend managed to survive the critical period after the removal of the disease in his head.Jovan's eyes blinked as the bright light entered them and disturbed his sleep."Edwin!" Jovan was slightly surprised as a cunning grin slowly approached, closing the distance between their faces."You're not going to get angry now, are you?" As if understanding his friend's feelings, Jovan winced because Edwin did not take his gaze off of him."Since when have you kept secrets from me?" Edwin asked with a serious, piercing stare towards his friend, who only gave a thin smile in response."I didn't want to worry you!" Jovan reasoned. He knew that Edwin was angry with him for hiding the disease that had been afflicting him, and not info
Forced Marriage Chapter 88
Chapter 88The girl's steps felt heavy as she entered a room where someone lay helpless, with an infusion tube attached to his wrist.There was a weight in her chest that, for some reason, she couldn't shake off for a long time, causing her to cry.The door opened slowly as she entered and looked at a man with his eyes closed and a bandage on his head. More tears fell, remembering that Jovan was like an older brother to her.Unable to bear it any longer, Kirana chose to sit beside Jovan's bed. The resting man slowly opened his eyes when he heard sobbing noises that disturbed his ears."Little girl, you're noisy! Your crying is making my head heavier," he said, grimacing. His vision was still blurry from the anesthetic."Heartless man," she sobbed, unable to hide her sadness anymore. Kirana almost angrily hit Jovan's chest if she didn't pity him.Nearly six hours ago, Jovan had just left the operating room. Due to the influence of anesthesia, it wasn't until he was disturbed by Kirana'
Forced Marriage Chapter 87
Chapter 87After hearing Kirana's explanation, Edwin felt uneasy. It was as if there were an unresolved mystery awaiting him in life. Kirana's ambiguous statement made him keep thinking about it. He didn't even notice Melati approaching him with Diandra."Is there something important that happened that's making you so restless?" Melati joined Edwin as they both stared out at the city of Amsterdam in the morning light."I don't know, Kirana said something bad is happening in Indonesia. But I don't know what it is." Edwin explained briefly."And that's why your heart is uneasy?" asked Melati. Edwin quickly nodded in agreement."I'm afraid something else has happened. Especially since Jovan wouldn't answer my calls!" Edwin recounted the situation."In that case, we should go back as soon as possible," Melati suggested, and Edwin looked into her eyes seriously."But what about our plans?" Melati smiled."We can go anywhere after the issue is resolved. Now is not the time for fun. If somet
Forced Marriage Chapter 86
Chapter 86As evening approached, Edwin, along with one of his subordinates, prepared a meal in the kitchen. His wife was putting Diandra to bed in their room.A delicious and appetizing meal was set up to welcome Melati. The dining table had several dishes, some of which were ordered from a famous halal-certified restaurant. A table adorned with dim candles awaited Melati's descent.After a few minutes, Melati arrived wearing a long, slightly thick dress to keep off the cold.People blew trumpets, clapped, and cheered as Melati appeared, looking shocked."Hey, what's going on? What are you guys doing?" Melati asked incredulously at the small surprise prepared for her. Edwin even held a bouquet of lilies to present to his wife."Congratulations, my wife. I hope after this, we'll never be separated again," Edwin wished, embracing his wife and inviting her to sit at the dining table with various dishes."Oh my, did you prepare all this?" Melati looked enthusiastic as Edwin nodded quickl

Chapter 85"Sir, perhaps you are just hallucinating!" said one of his subordinates, standing up, especially after Edwin suddenly ran away from the place without any explanation. "It's impossible! I'm sure I just heard a meaningful scream!" Edwin remained adamant in his thinking.Edwin sprinted out of the room, ignoring the others around him. Scanning to the right and left on the snowy night, he didn't recognize any of the passersby. They stared back at him with puzzled expressions."For some reason, I'm sure Melati is nearby. Oh God, please reunite me with my wife; I don't want us to be apart any longer," he prayed inwardly, his face filled with anxiety.Edwin's subordinates also followed him out of the room after paying for their orders. They scattered to the right and left, with some even crossing the street in search of the woman their boss loved.Suddenly, a voice raised Edwin's hopes."Mr. Edwin! Over here!" The man shouted in panic when he found Melati about to be dragged and fo
Forced Marriage Chapter 84
Chapter 84The stolen black car was driven quite roughly, considering the driver was not very experienced in handling Teguh's luxury vehicle.Melati, clutching Diandra in her embrace, kept praying for their safety. She wasn't sure if the man beside her would succeed in bringing her to Edwin, given his reckless driving.The slightly wet road from the freshly fallen snow made the car occasionally swerve left and right, sometimes weaving and braking imperfectly. Melati had to hold on tight."Can't you drive properly? I'm holding a baby in my arms, and I don't want an accident to happen between us!" Melati snapped at the man, who appeared unconcerned despite repeatedly failing to brake and accelerate correctly."Relax, miss. I may not have driven a car for nearly five years, but my skills are adequate," he said, causing Melati to shake her head in resignation.The shining headlights from behind made both of them look through the rearview mirror to see who was chasing them."Isn't that Teg
Forced Marriage Chapter 83
Chapter 83Someone knocked on the door. Melati glanced in that direction. She didn't know who it was, so she chose to ignore it and continued to embrace Diandra.Knock knock knock!The sound came again. This time, Melati approached the door."Who is it?""It's me. The man who will save your life. Ini aku. Pria yang akan menyelamatkan hidupmu!" The man spoke in English. Fortunately, Melati understood the meaning.But Melati was confused because she didn't recognize the man. Nevertheless, she remained curious."Who sent you? Be clear!" she whispered so Teguh's men couldn't hear her. Luckily, she was held captive on the second floor while they were downstairs playing cards."Edwin!""What? He's here?" Melati asked again."Yes, and he's waiting for you," he said in English.Hearing the name mentioned, Melati felt stunned and slightly disbelieving. However, she felt hopeful. Her smile appeared involuntarily as she missed him dearly.The man fiddled with the doorknob. In just a moment, the
Forced Marriage Chapter 82
Chapter 82Every day, Edwin and his subordinates spread out to search for Melati. They showed clear pictures of her to various people, most of whom only shook their heads and acted indifferent."Wij weten het niet. Maar in dit land nemen ontvoering toe, (We don't know, but kidnappings are on the rise in this country,) a man said as Edwin showed him a photo on the phone.Still, he didn't lose hope. Melati and his son must be fine, considering Teguh was the one who kidnapped them, not a stranger or local resident. One thing Edwin knew and believed for sure: Teguh wouldn't harm Melati or Diandra since he was obsessed with both of them. It would be illogical for him to go through the trouble of taking them abroad to elude Edwin if he wanted to eliminate them, he thought to himself."Shall we move on to another place, Boss?" Edwin's subordinate spoke up from behind. Edwin nodded his head, unaware that someone had been watching them all this time.The man dropped his cigarette and began to

Chapter 81After a dozen-hour-long flight, the four of them finally arrived in their destination country: the Netherlands. A pre-ordered car took them to a place where they could rest their weary bodies before dispersing to gather information.Edwin instructed two men to search for information at the airport's arrival center and its surroundings. Meanwhile, another went to the local police station to report the kidnapping. Edwin himself headed to the Indonesian Embassy to ask for help. Fortunately, they were quick to assist and promised to help in any way they could.In the evening, Edwin and his partners returned to their temporary residence. This was just the beginning, and they hadn't made any progress yet. However, they didn't lose hope. There was always tomorrow, and Edwin firmly believed that his wife would be found. ***Meanwhile, in another place.Jovan returned to the hospital where Gunadi was being treated. A short while ago, Dena had contacted him to come there, where Guna
