"That." Riana couldn't answer properly, she was shaking violently."How dare you, Riana! You know I hate it when people touch my phone!" Reynald was very upset to see his phone in Riana's hands.On the other hand, Reynald was afraid that if Riana found out that he was starting to be interested in other women, she would be furious with him."I know, it's just that every time I see you holding a cell phone, you always smile to yourself like that makes me suspicious," Riana said quietly, a tightness in her chest."So you thought I was playing with fire?" Reynald raised his voice.Riana fell silent, which made Reynald angry."You think I would do that? What did you think of me all this time? Do you think I'm like all the other men out there who have affairs with other women?" Reynald continued to pepper Riana with questions."I just..." Riana said, unable to finish her sentence."Just what, tell me!" Reynald's face turned red, the veins in his neck bulging with emotion.Anger that Riana w
"Argh!" Reynald shouted in surprise. "Why are you so difficult to wake up? What time is it, is it going to be late again?" Riana was actually very lazy to wake up Reynald, her body was still sore from last night. However, she had no other choice, how could she want to be beaten a second time. "You're bothering me." Reynald muttered under his breath, rubbing his face roughly. "Annoying what?" Riana wrinkled her forehead in confusion. "Huh! Never mind, I'm going to take a shower." Reynald quickly got out of bed and headed for the bathroom. Riana let out a long sigh, she felt confused by her husband's attitude these days, well, indeed from a few years Reynald had changed, the man she loved looked very different now, not like before. The poor woman came out of the guest room quickly, she was getting clothes for Reynald to go to work. "Oh dear! I forgot to iron it!" Riana panicked, she had forgotten to iron h
[Yes. Now I'm already in the car driving to work]Message sent to Diandra, Reynald continued to stare at the message sent by the woman who had recently fascinated him. He could feel his heart beating fast, a desire to possess was stirring in his heart, a very strong desire."Why aren't you leaving yet?"Riana's voice startled Reynald, he quickly put the phone down and answered his wife's question."Yes, this is also leaving." Reynald rolled up the windshield and drove slowly.[Be careful on your way to work, don't speed, and be enthusiastic!]Diandra pinned an affectionate sticker on Reynald, which made him even more intoxicated."Ah! Diandra, already beautiful, sexy, plus caring, more love!" Reynald clutched his cell phone with one hand.Because his other hand was used for driving, Reynald tried to reply to the message while driving, with no intention of stopping.Reynald was surprised when he hit the
"How arrogant of him, he was just appointed CEO today!" Reynald expressed his frustration to Chiko, the only friend he was really close to. "Maybe you did something wrong with him," Chiko suspected. "How could I do something wrong with him? We only met this morning!" Reynald grumbled. "Maybe in your dreams, haha..." Chiko laughed so hard that she choked on her own saliva. "Taste it!" Reynald growled irritated. "Don't do that, Mr. Manager, you'll lose your good looks." "I won't lose my good looks, because many beautiful women have approached me." Reynald puffed out his chest arrogantly. "Your wife? That woman in the shabby clothes? Yes, I admit she's pretty, it's just that..." Chiko did not continue her sentence when the man in front of her glared at her. "Can you please not talk about her!" Reynald snapped at Chiko in a high tone, causing everyone to turn their heads towards the young manager. Reynald and Chiko were in the cafeteria having lunch, so of course there were a lot
"You're getting naughty, aren't you?" Reynald grabbed Wulan's waist as she fumbled with the buttons of her shirt. "Not naughty, just trying to have some fun." Wulan rolled her eyes mischievously, a smile still on her tiny lips. The sound of knocking interrupted their activities that had not yet begun, "Who?" asked Reynald in a high tone. "Wulan was called to his room by Mr. Wira," a woman answered from outside. "Oh dear! I've been here too long!" Wulan adjusted her dirty shirt. "Our new boss is too annoying, I don't like him." "But I like him because he's handsome and young." After saying that, Wulan went straight to her boss. While Reynald immediately did the job Wulan gave him earlier, his blood rushed to remember what he wanted to do to the secretary, only they didn't get to do the hot thing earlier because he was called by a boss he didn't like. "Although it's not bad if you do it with Wulan, even if it's just a kiss at most, but it's okay." "What took you so long? Didn't
The sound of the door rudely opening surprised everyone who was talking, and they all turned to see Riana standing there with reddened eyes, holding back the anger and tears that wanted to flow. "Oh dear! Can't you open the door slowly? How rude of you to your parents!" Mayang was actually afraid to see the look on Riana's face, but she didn't want to be seen as afraid of her daughter-in-law. Sinta backed away slowly, even though she was the one who had made fun of Riana the most, unlike Desi who didn't really like to talk about other people's bad behavior and she also knew that Riana wasn't like Mayang. According to Desi, the young woman was nice, in stark contrast to the stories her friends told her every time they met. Mayang alone could not be grateful to have a daughter-in-law like Riana.Riana walked in, ignoring her in-laws' chatter, and went to the kitchen to put Mayang's order on a plate and hand it to the three women who were now silent in the living room. The sound of p
"Here you are, Rey, Riana is always throwing tantrums, last afternoon she embarrassed mom in front of her friends." Mayang complained with an artificially sad face. "Is what I saw earlier true?" Riana didn't pay any attention to Mayang, who was standing between them, she only concentrated on staring at the man in front of her. "Well, you can see his disrespectful behavior for yourself, Rey!" "Rey!" Riana's eyes lit up as she held back the tears that were about to break out. "What did you see? I just came home from earning money to feed you!" Reynald was annoyed by the question Riana asked. "My husband just came home from work, instead of being welcomed, he's looking for trouble. Do you think Reynald isn't tired of finding money for you? Meanwhile, you're just relaxing at home without being tired of looking for money out there!" Mayang pointed at Riana's face in annoyance. "Do you think I just lie at home? Cook my own food, wash my own dishes, wash my own clothes and clean my own
"You useless woman, at this hour you still haven't woken up!" Mayang shouted angrily at Riana who hadn't come out of the room."Rianaa!" Reynald shouted loudly, not forgetting the man who was banging on the bedroom door, hoping his wife would come out soon.Riana opened the door slowly, looking well-groomed. "What's all the fuss about?""You said 'what's up' instead of cooking, you're lying in your room, did you forget to cook today?" Reynald scrunched up his waist and glared at his wife."Didn't you agree with what I'm doing right now? You also said that cooking and housework is very easy, so why do you get upset when I don't cook?" Riana replied casually, even fiddling with her fingers in annoyance at her husband's expression. She still remembered the words of her in-laws and her husband."What, so you take all this seriously? How can you let my mother do all the housework? I certainly can't, because I'm at the office all day working, I even have to work overtime so I don't have tim
Time has flown by. Mayang has a hard time speaking, and walking now because she stroke paralyzed the right half of her body. She's having a hard time doing things on her own these days. The woman needs help with everything, from eating to using the bathroom."I got married to live well, not like this!" Diandra grumbled.Diandra's been on a rant all day, and Reynald's had it."Shut up! It's also because of you that my life has become unlucky!" Reynald blamed Diandra for his own mistakes, his usual way of deflecting responsibility."Ugh! You're the corrupt one, why am I the one to blame?" Diandra glared at her husband."Yes, because I'm married to you, everything is messed up! It's different when you're with Riana, especially since you know your husband doesn't work, and still goes shopping, so all the money you have left is gone to pay your debts. Now you have to look in the trash for food!" Reynald was furious at the thought."It's your own fault for being corrupt, and incompetent as
Wira was relieved. Now that Riana had a family to protect, Wira was going to start the plan today, but he had to go to work first so his father wouldn't be suspicious of him.Wira decided to go to his office to see if he could talk to Lia. He wanted to know if she had taken him or not. However, when he was there for half a day, he couldn't find her anywhere, leaving him wondering where she was."Two cleaning services were fired yesterday," one of the women in the corner said.Women love to gossip. They gossip anywhere, and at any time, as long as they have friends to gossip with. This was helpful for Wira because if he asked one of the workers here, him felt that he would be reported to Subroto. Now, the man wanted to avoid Subroto knowing what he had done."Yes, I'm also confused as to why she was fired. The other guy is clear—her was accused of stealing. This guy isn't. She name was Lia, I think.The more convinced Wira was of what happened, the more he thought that Lia was delibera
"Mutia, get two drinks over here!" Riana looked at Mutia just before she brought Wira into her room office."Okay!" Mutia replied.After hearing Mutia's answer, Riana quickly stepped into her room office, which was inside the restaurant. Her uncle's room was now her own. Riana told the man to sit on the couch, then she took a seat across from Wira because it felt wrong to sit next to the man. They were alone now, and it didn't feel good to be close to a man who wasn't her husband."I'm sorry, I didn't defend you yesterday. It was all because my father threatened that if I did, you would be put in prison, and there he would make you disappear without a trace. He really would do it if I didn't comply. I'm afraid of losing you!" Wira said this with a pleading face, and Riana believed him."Do you believe what your father said? I was the one who stole the folder, and I didn't even know that it was a big project that you guys were going to participate in!" Riana emphasized every sentence s
Desi didn't know where Riana was going because her had nowhere else to go. When she was kicked out of Reynald's house, Riana didn't know where her was going."You already know, there is evidence, and witnesses who say that she was the one who stole it. Even Wira, and I found the folder in her room!" Subroto wanted Desi to believe his words so that his wife would hate the woman named Riana."I've asked you before, why did she steal the folder? If I were her, I'd rather steal the gold, money, or valuables in this house!" Desi emphasized once again that Riana was not the thief."Maybe, she knows the folder is valuable, and wants to sell it to a company that competes with us," Subroto said, not wanting to give up on convincing Desi.Desi remained silent, not wanting to argue with Subroto about Riana. Subroto was a stubborn man, so it would be impossible to convince him otherwise. Desi felt like someone wanted to ruin Riana's reputation, but who? Why would someone accuse a good woman like
"Uncle, doesn't need to do it. Let's just drop the matter!" Riana didn't want her uncle to get revenge for what those people had done to her."They've been mean to you, so I'll take care of it. You just need to watch, and don't get involved!" Edo was furious with all those people; he wanted to teach them a lesson.Although Edo, Subroto, the owner of a large, and well-known company, had some reservations, he was determined to get justice for them."It's okay! I've tried to be sincere with what they did. I don't want to hurt Wira's father. Desi's aunt, his wife, has been very kind to me, and Wira has too." Riana didn't finish her sentence."Does Miss Riana like Wira? Sorry if I'm interrupting this conversation!" Mutia guessed that she had been watching Riana.Riana smiled at Mutia, and nodded her head. That was the only response she gave now because when talking about Wira, her felt sad. The woman had just been in a relationship, and it had to end like this. Riana wanted to take their r
"Yes. This restaurant is now yours, as you are the rightful heir! Oh, and by the way, introduce me as Mutia, the manager of this restaurant." Mutia extended her hand, introducing herself to she new boss.Riana accepted her hand without saying anything, still thinking about what had just happened. She was still surprised that her parents owned such a fancy, and big restaurant. Was it true that her parents owned this place? Riana still didn't believe it, thinking it was all a dream."Miss Riana?" Mutia touched Riana softly because she had been talking to her but there was no response."Uh, y-yes!" Riana stammered, surprised that she had been daydreaming."Would you like to take a tour of the restaurant?" Mutia asked, offering to show her around.Actually, sir Edo had told Mutia to take Riana around, and introduce her to the other subordinates."That's fine. But where do I put my stuff?" Riana asked, embarrassed to bring in her shabby-looking bag. Her hands hurt from carrying the bag."O
"But, there is proof, and witnesses who say that it was Riana who stole with Kiki," said Subroto, not wanting to say who the witnesses were."I don't believe that, Pa! How could Riana have stolen it, and why would she do that?" Desi said in a high tone that she didn't accept her husband accusing Riana of being a good woman."We have witnesses, and evidence. We found this folder in Riana's room. It was tucked under her clothes." Subroto took the folder from behind his back, and showed Desi that Riana really was he said his was.Riana knew that Subroto didn't like her, and from what she had learned at Reynald's house, it was pointless to defend herself. The man would probably insist that he was the one who stole the folder, even though there was evidence, witnesses, and the discovery of a folder that had never been seen before.Subroto was responsible for the folder's disappearance. While Wira was working in the office, he interrogated Lia in another room. Wira used footage from his sub
"What do you mean?" asked Wira, not understanding."You don't understand, Mr? Everyone changes over time, just like the Riana you used to know. So, now she's not the same person you used to know, but a different person," Reynald explained."Yes, you're right, people do change!" said Subroto, agreeing with Reynald, and the female employees who were still there nodded their heads in agreement."But I'm pretty sure that Riana hasn't changed!" Wira argued, stammering."Wira, you can't reject all of Riana's changes! What her ex-husband said is true because he was her husband, and lived with her for five years. Only a husband knows the good, and bad in his wife, and vice versa." Subroto patted Wira's shoulder, trying to get the man to realize what Reynald had told them.Wira didn't say anything else because he thought it was useless to disagree with everything Reynald said. Everyone already believed what Riana's ex-husband said. So it was useless for him to say that Reynald was lying.At th
"I know you took the red folder! If not you, who else could it have been? You look the most suspicious these days!" Kiki pointed at Lia's face. She knew that Lia was the one who took the folder."Why did I take the folder?" Lia asked, trying to stop Kiki from blaming her."I don't know! Only you know that, or maybe you want to bring Riana down because you hate her so much. I don't know what she did wrong to you, so you hate that good woman!" Kiki glared at her, eyes red with anger. She wanted to attack the woman, but she felt weak."So what if I took it? Yes, I took the folder! What are you going to tell them? How could they believe you?" Lia walked away from Kiki, annoyed.Kiki hurriedly gathered her things, and left, wanting to go home immediately to tell her family that she had been fired from work. The woman didn't want to tell her family, but she had to tell her mother everything. But her father would scold Kiki if she was caught stealing because he didn't trust her, only her mot
