Forced Marriage Chapter 50
Chapter 50"If Teguh messes with her there, Auntie will never forgive him, Edwin. I am promise.For years I stood by him, even when he was in trouble. And I'm not sincere if something bad is proven, or Teguh is having an affair!” Anita rubbed the corners of her wet eyes. This was the first time she was completely lied to. Claimed to have gone out of town, only to the villa.Edwin was silent when he heard Anita's story just now. What if the woman knows that her husband wants his own wife, Melati.I don't know how Anita will feel.Throughout the trip, only Anita chattered on and on, and Edwin was just a good listener. His heart was actually more restless thinking about many things. He was afraid that maybe Melati had deliberately approached the man, and they were currently having a relationship that she herself could not imagine.Edwin himself, even though he is old enough to have a lover, always keeps himself from bad things. He never even kissed or hugged a woman. Edwin only ever had

Chapter 51"Y-you guys?" Teguh's eyes widened perfectly when he looked directly at his wife and niece. The man did not expect that when finally Anita could come to that place and find out where he was."What are you doing at this time of night to follow me to this place?" Teguh asked with a restless chest. He took several slow breaths, so as not to make the two of them suspicious."We should be the ones asking, Uncle. What are you doing in this place, even with an unnatural appearance?" Edwin looked at his uncle who was wearing a kimono, which showed a bit of his thin hairy chest, without wearing a shirt. The man's eyes flashed with suspicion."What do you mean? Of course I'm dressed like this because I just finished taking a shower. What do you guys think?" Teguh smiled awkwardly, when suddenly Anita's gaze also stabbed at him."Didn't when I called you earlier, you said you were in Solo City and resting at the hotel. Then why are you now in this villa without telling me? Tell me wha
Forced Marriage Chapter 52
Chapter 52" I don't think, Ed, you can accuse my husband of doing such a bad thing. Even Aunt is embarrassed just to apologize to Teguh." Anita expressed her disappointment at Edwin, who repeatedly took rough breaths, when they were on their way back."Auntie, just wait, I will prove everything. If a husband who is an aunt's mind is the best man, that is not entirely true." Edwin spoke firmly without intending to say sorry to the woman whose eyes were red."What did you say? Don't keep accusing my husband like that. If your relationship has been going well so far, then why are you suddenly someone who wants to bring him down, Ed? Aunt doesn't understand your way of thinking." Anita's disappointment was clearly written on her face when she looked at Edwin who insisted on what he said.Edwin stopped his vehicle on a quiet roadside, and sat down to Anita seriously.Edwin sighed uneasily. The aunt just didn't know how Teguh got out of the hotel with Cindy, and when he went to Cindy's ren

Chapter 53the next morning.Melati woke up when she heard a knock on her bedroom door. The woman immediately blinked because she still felt sleepy. Last night she fell asleep after crying until exhausted.The knock sounded again, and inevitably made Melati get up and peek through the small hole in the door. He was afraid that Teguh or Edwin would come.Feeling safe enough, Melati opened the door and found the hotel clerk standing in a friendly manner."Sorry to bother you madam, earlier a taxi driver handed over his wallet to the information department. After opening it, it was yours."Melati immediately took the item which was hers. She didn't know if his wallet was really missing, even though last night he deliberately lied to cover his tracks."Please check first, maybe something is missing.""Everything is safe. Thank you," Melati said awkwardly because the people in front of her had definitely seen her swollen face. The woman took out the green money as a reward, closed the doo

Chapter 54"We're late, Ed." Jovan spoke sluggishly, as soon as he got word from someone on his phone."Has Melati left yet?""Yeah. Looks like he knows we're looking for him." Unfortunately they were too late.Edwin could only take a deep breath. If only he could protect that woman, surely Melati wouldn't have to go.Edwin truly regretted his current state of not being able to be in two places at once. He secretly promised in his heart that he would accept Melati no matter what the situation was after she was found."Calm down, at least we know that Melati is in Bandung. That means it's getting closer to Gunadi's house." Jovan patted Edwin's shoulder lightly. The man knew how upset Edwin felt because he couldn't take care of Melati.Jovan could also see how Edwin cared for Melati, not just pity. But more than that.*****Vienna stepped hastily into the room where Kirana was resting. Some time ago the doctor had examined him and replaced his bandages with new ones. Injuries to the hea
Forced Marriage Chapter 55
Chapter 55Edwin ran as hard as he could to find Vienna. In fact, every seller visited because of worry. Edwin also tried to contact the girl's cellphone, but it was still not active."Where are you going, Vienna!" Edwin did not give up. He immediately dialed the police number to report a kidnapping. But the reply from the other side disappointed him."I'm sorry, Sir. This case can be reported to us only after one twenty-four hours." Edwin immediately hung up and almost threw his phone away in annoyance."Edwin, what's going on? You seem really agitated." Jovan immediately approached after seeing Edwin acting unusually from a distance."Vienna, Jo. Vienna is gone!""Are you sure? I had a brief chat with him earlier on the phone." Jovan asked seriously. Even earlier he and Vienna had talked on the phone to ask where he was."Kirana told me, Jo." Edwin immediately explained the previous incident. Stupidly he felt guilty for not knowing this would happen."Quickly call someone, Jo. I wan

Chapter 56"Mr. Edwin, there seems to be someone in this room!" A tall man in a black shirt said seriously to Edwin and Jovan. They were anxiously searching for Vienna."Quickly, let's break down the door!" Jovan replied, walking towards the door. With a bit of a start, they broke down the door in three blows. The dark room was exposed perfectly after Jovan turned on the lamp."Vienna!" Jovan ran towards the bed where Vienna was almost half-naked, curled up with her mouth sealed with duct tape."Find whoever did this!" Jovan said. He grabbed a blanket and covered Vienna's body before releasing the ties on her hands and feet. Edwin was also shocked by Vienna's condition. He was aided by his men, who promptly went to the window where there was a man running away without wearing a shirt."That jerk! How could he do this to Vienna?!" Edwin growled and ran out of the room, leaving Jovan and Vienna. Vienna burst into tears immediately, while Jovan hugged her.Teguh was still sitting in his
Forced Marriage Chapter 57
Chapter 57"Have you found the owner of the car?" Edwin asked impatiently. His men had followed the suspect and managed to track him down last night. Edwin hoped to receive good news as soon as possible."Yes, sir. But after investigating, we found out it was a rental car. Someone rented it under someone else's name," the men reported."Is that so?" Edwin let out a frustrated sigh. "What about Teguh? Has he returned home?""It seems not. We have asked his wife and housekeeper, but they have no idea where he is.""Damn it!" Edwin groaned irritably. "Alright, you guys rest and make sure to keep a watch on his house. If anything suspicious happens, contact me immediately.""Yes, sir." The two men who gave the report then left.All night, Edwin couldn't sleep as he thought about Vienna and his missing wife Melati.He was restless thinking about all the things that had been troubling him lately."So how is she?" Edwin asked anxiously when Jovan contacted him to inform him of the results of

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
