Sebastian..." she groaned in a hoarse and weak tone. Her body was shaking even more, and Sara, who realized what her daughter had said, was shocked.
"Sebastian?" Sara muttered softly, her heart astonished. Why at a time like this, when Dinda was sick and had a fever, was Sebastian the name her daughter was calling? She felt shocked to see Dinda continue to call out for her father, a small cry was heard between her gasping breaths.Dinda continued to sleep talk, her body shivering and calling incessantly, "Dad... Sebastian... miss you..."Sara felt her heart being stabbed. Guilt began to creep into her chest. How could Dinda miss her father so much, while she had always closed the door between Dinda and Sebastian? Sara knew, however, that Sebastian was a part of Dinda's life. But she never thought that the longing woRelated chapters

Suddenly, Sara's maid, Mrs. Rina, appeared from the side of the house. Her face looked worried, and when she saw Sebastian, she immediately approached him. "Mr. Sebastian," she said in a low voice. "Dinda... she was taken to the hospital last night."Sebastian felt as if the whole world stopped for a moment. "What? Why? What happened to her?" he asked urgently, unable to hide his surging anxiety.Mrs. Rina shook her head, her eyes full of sympathy. "Dinda has a high fever and can't sleep. Mrs. Sara took her to the hospital for further treatment.""Dinda is in the hospital now?" Sebastian panicked and rushed to his car. "I have to go there. Thank you, Mrs. Rina.""Mr. Sebastian, be careful. Mrs. Sara is already there, and they are still examining her," Mrs. Rina added, but Sebastian was impatient. He drove to the hospital full of worry.Sebastian panicked when he arrived at the hospital and immediately found out where Dinda was being trea

Dinda, who was still lying weakly on the bed, suddenly hugged Sebastian tightly. Her small but soulful hands gripped Sebastian's shirt, as if afraid that her father would leave again. "Daddy... I miss you so much," her voice was hoarse but full of emotion. Sebastian was silent for a moment, his heart seemed to explode with mixed feelings—happy, sad, and relieved. He returned Dinda's hug gently, embracing his daughter in the warmth he had longed for. "Daddy misses you so much too, honey," he whispered, Sebastian's voice trembling slightly. Dinda continued to hug Sebastian tightly, not wanting to let go. Her tears began to flow, dripping down her cheeks which were hot from the fever. "I was scared, Daddy... I thought Daddy wouldn't come again." Sebastian rubbed Dinda's back gently, trying to calm his daughter. "Daddy is always there for you, Dinda. Whatever happens, Daddy will never leave you. You are everything to Daddy."

Sara's face turned annoyed. She didn't expect Sebastian to bring it up here, in the middle of a tense situation. "Sebastian..." "Do you think I'll just let it go?" Sebastian gritted his teeth, trying to hold back the pain that was surfacing again. Sara took a step back, her face trying to remain calm. But her eyes showed panic that could not be hidden. "That's none of your business anymore, Sebastian. What happened between us is over. And I will not give Dinda to you. And I will protect her from this endless debate." "If you really want to protect Dinda, you won't raise her with lies." Sebastian's voice rose, his emotions could no longer be contained. "I have the right to Dinda, and I will not keep quiet anymore. I will fight for her custody, Sara. She deserves to grow up with the truth, not in the lies you created." Sara flinched at the threat. She knew that if Sebastian really fought for Dinda’s custody, there was a big chance that she woul

With a smile on his lips, Sebastian began to feed Dinda again. Although she still winced a little because of the bland taste of the porridge, Dinda still obeyed and tried to finish her breakfast. While feeding Dinda, Sebastian spoke softly to her, telling funny stories about the things they did together when Dinda was younger."Dad, do you still remember when we went to the park, and Dinda ran around with that big dog?" Dinda asked, suddenly remembering an old incident that made her eyes shine.Sebastian chuckled. "Remember. That dog likes Dinda, he didn't stop chasing you until we had to climb onto the park bench," he said, still remembering how funny and adorable that moment was."Dad also climbed onto the bench, right?" Dinda giggled, remembering her Dad's surprised expression at that time."Yeah, Dad was scared too at that time," Sebastian admitted jokingly, making Dinda laugh even more. They continued to laugh and share stories, enjoying eve

Sara, seeing the opportunity, immediately took over. She hugged Dinda lovingly, pretending to be calm in front of her daughter. "Dinda, Mommy isn't crying. You know Mommy loves you, right? Daddy just wants to ruin everything. He doesn't care about us," she said softly, but in a tone that clearly conveyed the message that Sebastian was a dangerous figure. Dinda nodded, wiping away the tears on her still-damp cheeks. "Yes, Mommy. I don't want to see Daddy anymore! Get out of here!" Dinda shouted, her voice getting higher and full of hatred. Sebastian felt an unbearable pain in his chest. He wanted to step closer, but he felt as if an invisible wall was blocking him. "Dinda, please... listen to Daddy. I love you. Daddy doesn't want to make Mommy or you feel sad. Daddy just wants us to be together again. We can play and have fun," he said, his voice full of hope, even though deep inside he felt despair. "No! Go away!" Dinda insisted, her voice breaking the

Sara knew that this fight wasn’t over yet, and she was determined to win. “No one will be able to stop me,” she said to herself, as she imagined the future she wanted, where she and Dinda could live happily without Sebastian’s interference.With renewed confidence, Sara took a deep breath and prepared herself for the next challenge. She had to strategize well and make sure that all her plans went according to her wishes. Everything Sebastian did would only backfire on her, and Sara was determined to prove it in court. A few moments later, the atmosphere in the hospital room felt warmer with the arrival of Rendy, Dinda's rich father. He appeared with a big smile and a big teddy bear propped up in his arms. "Honey, look what Daddy brought!" Rendy shouted cheerfully, entering the room and making Dinda turn her head curiously. Dinda woke up from her sleep, her face immediately lit up when she saw the big and adorable teddy bear. "Daddy is

Hearing this, Rendy smiled in satisfaction. “Very good, Sara. That’s a smart idea. With the recording, we can show how Sebastian negatively affects Dinda. This could be a big advantage for us.”Sara felt calmer and more excited, then leaned her head on Rendy’s shoulder. “I want to end all this, Rendy. I don’t want to deal with Sebastian anymore. I want to marry you soon,” she said in a soft voice, but full of hope.Rendy looked at her intently. “Are you sure, Sara? This is not a small step. We have to think about all the consequences,” he asked, although his smile showed his support.“Yes, I’m sure,” Sara answered firmly. “I don’t want to live in fear or constantly deal with a painful past. Dinda needs certainty and a stable environment. With this marriage, I’m sure we can give her everything she needs.”Rendy nodded, understanding how important this step was for Sara. He hugged her closer, giving her the support she needed. “We will get through t

Sebastian thought for a moment, trying to remember the difficult times after his divorce from Sara. He knew that Sara wasn’t always there for Dinda as she should have been, but hard evidence of that was hard to come by. “I know she left the house for days without telling Dinda,” he mumbled. “But that was before we got divorced.”“Those things could be relevant,” Arman said, leaning forward. “If we could prove that Sara often left Dinda or that she was irresponsible as a mother, that could help.”Sebastian felt a little hope rise in his heart. “So, do you think we still have a chance?”Arman smiled thinly, shrugging his shoulders. "There's always a chance, Sebastian. We just have to work hard and gather all the evidence we can. This tape is a good start, but we need more." Sebastian nodded slowly. "I'll do whatever it takes. I just want to make sure Dinda grows up in a safe and loving environment." Arman tidied up his documents on his d

"Forgot?" The senior doctor raised his voice, creating a tense atmosphere in the room. "How could you overlook something like this? This is not just a technical issue; it concerns the trust of the patient in us as a medical team!"His words echoed in the silence, adding weight to an already tense atmosphere. All eyes were on the doctor, observing how serious the situation had become. "We must remember that every decision we make can have a significant impact on someone's life. We cannot take risks like this."The doctor looked at his colleagues, hoping they understood the importance of maintaining integrity and professionalism in every action. "We must commit to providing the best for our patients, no matter how small the details," he emphasized.Sara watched the scene with her mouth half-open, her heart pounding in a mix of confusion and anger. "So, you mean, the wound was found during surgery, but I was not informed?" she asked sharply, her eyes fixed di

This uncertainty made her feel trapped, torn between trust in her partner and the growing worry.With each heartbeat, Sara was resolved to seek the truth—whatever might be revealed, she needed to know in order to protect Dinda and herself.But Sara brushed the thought aside. Sebastian was just trying to complicate her life, she thought stubbornly. Yet, the doubt continued to grow in a small corner of her heart.After ensuring Dinda was sleeping peacefully, Sara decided to find the doctor on duty who could explain the scar. She walked toward the doctor's office with firm steps. There, she found a nurse organizing the patient schedule."Excuse me, I want to see the doctor who is taking care of my daughter, Dinda," Sara said in a firm yet polite tone.The nurse looked at the schedule in her hand before responding, "I’m sorry, Mrs. S

Sara felt her heart ache at the anger and sadness on Dinda's face. She knew her daughter missed Daddy Sebastian very much, and her feelings were entirely valid. Although she tried to explain gently, Dinda still looked disappointed and confused.Sara reminded herself to be patient, trying to find a way to explain the situation better. She hoped to give Dinda understanding so her daughter could feel more at ease and not neglected. In her mind, she resolved to find the right time to talk to Dinda about her feelings and hopes.Sara took a deep breath, trying to hold back her emotions. "Sweetheart, Mommy just wants the best for you. Besides, Daddy Rendy is here. You can play with him."Dinda huffed, crossing her arms. "Daddy Rendy isn’t fun. He always daydreams when I invite him to play. That makes me mad!"Hearing that, Sara felt a bit frustrated. She knew Dinda really needed attention and love. However, she also understood that Rendy might be facing

The woman looked pale, her eyes swollen, clearly showing that she had just been crying. When she saw Rendy approaching, Vina appeared a bit relieved but still deeply worried.Rendy felt the pain in Vina's heart and knew this situation was very serious. He tried to calm himself, even though the tension in the air felt heavy. Rendy knew that this was the right time to support Vina and find out what was really happening with Rachel."Rendy!" Vina called with a trembling voice. She immediately walked up to him and hugged him tightly without hesitation."What happened?" Rendy asked urgently, although his voice sounded softer. He stroked Vina's back with a hand that tried to remain calm, even though he himself was on the verge of losing control.Vina took a deep breath, trying to hold back her tears. Rendy felt the tension in her body, and he grew more worried about Rachel's condition. In that embrace, he tried to provide strength to Vina, hoping to hea

Suddenly, Rendy's phone rang. As he answered, his expression changed instantly. From a warm face while with Dinda, now it showed a striking tension. He listened intently to the voice on the other end, occasionally nodding even though those around him couldn't hear the conversation.A moment later, he hung up and hurriedly put his phone in his pocket. His face revealed that something serious was happening, and I felt curious about what he had heard. Rendy looked restless, and I could sense that this situation might be related to something more significant than just personal issues."Sara," Rendy said, his voice somewhat tense. "I have to go to the office now. There’s an important matter with a client that can’t be postponed."Rendy appeared rushed, and the tension on his face became more evident. He seemed to struggle with his words before leaving, as if he wanted to explain more, but time seemed to be running out. With quick steps, he prepared to leave, ab

"Are you sure this is just a coincidence?" Sara asked again, this time her voice softer.Rendy nodded firmly. "Of course. There's nothing for you to worry about. They’re just clients, nothing more."Seeing Rendy's calm demeanor, Sara began to second-guess her suspicions. A part of her wanted to believe Rendy’s words, even though the shadow of Sebastian and his earlier words still lingered in her mind.The anxiety that had once consumed her thoughts began to subside, but an underlying sense of unease remained. She tried to convince herself that maybe this was indeed just a coincidence. However, doubt still loomed in her heart, leaving her feeling trapped between the desire to believe and the fear of a greater possibility.Rendy stepped closer, gently touching Sara's shoulder. "You look tired. Let’s go back to Dinda's room. I'm sure she wants to see both of us," he said softly. Sara gazed deeply at Rendy, trying to read

Sara bit her lip. She knew she shouldn't let her thoughts carry her away. However, her maternal instinct—the urge to protect Dinda—was starting to push her to uncover the truth. Sebastian might be wrong, but what if he was right?That worry gnawed at her mind, making her feel restless. She wanted to protect Dinda from anything that could harm her, including painful truths. Taking a deep breath, Sara tried to calm herself, but the urge to find out more grew stronger.She picked up her phone again, contemplating her next move. Should she try to contact Rendy once more or seek out other information? Deep down, she knew she had to get answers, no matter how difficult it might be.After a few minutes, Sara tried calling again, but still no answer. Her anxiety grew, and she began to feel something was off. Yet, on the other hand, she didn’t want to think too far without proof."Be patient, Sara," she told herself. "Maybe this is all just a coincidence.

Sara took a deep breath, her face showing a mix of exhaustion and anger. "Sebastian, I don’t care what you saw or think. All I know is that you’ve crossed the line by interfering in my life and Rendy’s. I’ve been patient enough. You should mind your own business and leave now."Those words felt like a slap to Sebastian. He sensed the tension in the air thickening, and even though he wanted to fight to convey the truth, Sara's firm voice made him hesitate. He realized that this situation had exceeded the boundaries he had anticipated.Sebastian stood still, trying to digest her words, but his heart felt heavy. He wanted to defend himself, but seeing Sara's expression, he knew that continuing this conversation would only make things worse.He stared at Sara for a moment, trying to find signs that she might be hiding something. However, Sara's gaze was stern, leaving no room for further discussion. He felt uncertainty and doubt, but the courage to ask further

Vina glanced at Rachel with a hint of guilt before turning her attention back to Rendy. "So, when exactly will he be moved?" she asked, trying to ensure everything was going according to plan.Rendy looked back, this time with a firmer tone. "In a few hours. The special ambulance is ready, and the route has been arranged so that no one will know. You just need to make sure Sebastian isn’t at the hospital during that time."Vina nodded, feeling the weight of the situation grow heavier. She knew that everything had to be done carefully, and every step counted. The tension between them was palpable, but they all understood that this was a necessary step."Okay. But I can't keep blocking him. If he finds out I'm deliberately stopping him, he'll become even more suspicious," Vina said, feeling the pressure.Rendy sighed, understanding the difficulty Vina faced. "I'll find another way to distract him. You do what you can. We can't let Rachel be found, V
