Riana was afraid to hear Desi's reaction when they arrived. She remembered Mayang nagging her afterward, making her cover her ears with her hands.

Desi saw this and immediately went over to Riana and hugged her. "I thought you were okay; that's why I was waiting for you."

"No, no. We're fine, Auntie. It's just that we stopped by to get the egg martabak that auntie likes. It wouldn't feel right if I didn't bring anything home." Riana carried a package of martabak in her hand. She was embarrassed that she had almost misunderstood.

"Did you have to wait in line for this?" Desi asked with a touching look in her eyes, to which Wira replied with a slight nod. "You shouldn't have because you just went for a walk together to relax after work. Instead, you must stand in line to get martabak like this," Desi continued.

"Don't you like it?" asked Riana.

"I like it. Of course, you like this martabak, it's just that you have to go home late because you have to queue to buy martabak like this," Des

    "That's the second time you fell, huh?" Wira teased. "Sorry, I didn't mean to." Riana looked down into Wira's arms, and wanted to move from his embrace, but her body felt very stiff. "What is it? I heard a loud crash." Desi opened the door in a semi-conscious position, even rubbing her eyes because she still felt sleepy. Riana took this opportunity to quickly pull away from Wira's embrace because she didn't want Desi to see her in Wira's arms. Shame! That's what it feels like to get caught, to get up so quickly, and act casual before you get caught. "It's okay, Auntie," Riana said quickly, seeing that Wira was about to open her mouth. "Oh, it's okay. Uh, why is Wira sitting on the floor at this hour?" asked Desi, surprised to see Wira smiling, and sitting on the floor. "I just slipped a little, Mom," Wira said, smiling as he showed his white and neat rows of teeth. "Then why are you sitting there? Instead of getting up, you just stay there; you'll catch a cold!" grumbled

    "How do you expect me to react?" Riana asked, surprised by Diandra's response. "Aren't you jealous that the wedding I'm having with your ex-husband is so elaborate? Whereas yours was very simple," Diandra said without realizing it. She had hoped that Riana would be jealous of her wedding story. "No, I'm not. Why would I be jealous of a story that is over? Even if I were jealous, wouldn't it be impossible for me to return to your lover? Even if I were to return, I don't want to go back to that house," Riana said casually. She was not as passionate as when she first met Diandra. "Huh! At least be a little jealous!" Diandra still insisted on hoping that Riana would be a little jealous because she wanted Riana to feel the same way she did when she was a few years old. "For what?" Riana looked sarcastically at Diandra. According to her, envy did her no good at all. "Yes, for what I don't know! At least you show me a little bit of envy like I've been feeling for a few years now when I

    "Wasn't I supposed to be invited in first? Instead, I'm just left standing in front of the door like this!" Diandra grumbled.Ironically, Diandra refused Mayang's offer of a drink, forgetting that Mayang needed to change clothes before leaving. Being accustomed to always wearing fine clothes, Diandra was always ready to go out without changing.Deciding to wait in her car, Diandra sat in the vehicle she had earned when her modeling career first took off. Now, it was just a relic of her past, so she was eager to marry Reynald, a manager at a prominent company."That old lady is taking forever; it's already been half an hour since she started changing clothes." Diandra glanced at the watch on her wrist, already frustrated from waiting."Sorry for making you wait so long," Mayang appeared, decked out in flashy attire, and dripping in gold, resembling a walking jewelry store."Ugh, taking so long just to look like a clown," Diandra muttered irritably."What did you say, dear Diandra?"

    "But Reynald told me to ask you, so you have the money! Do you want me to refuse to marry your son? I have nothing to lose if I don't marry your son; many rich, and handsome man still want to be my husband; of course, they will pay for all this wedding business." Diandra threatened as she sat back on the sofa. Indeed, she thought there were many handsome, and rich men besides Reynald.Diandra felt that she would easily get one of them.Mayang stammered; she was beginning to think that it could be bad if she didn't get a son-in-law like Diandra, who had a big income! Especially if other people caught her, they would all laugh at her for not getting a model son-in-law because she didn't want to spend a little money on their marriage. After all, she would benefit greatly from having a model daughter-in-law with a lot of income so that he would ask Diandra for compensation one day."Em, bb-well," Mayang said, half uncertain."Good!"

    "Oh my! I overslept." Riana rubbed her eyes, which felt heavy.She was still not fully awake because she had just woken up and looked up to see a man staring at her. "Mr. Wira! When did you get here? Why didn't you wake me?""I just came here; I didn't feel like waking you up because you looked so tired," Wira said as he stared at Riana."Still! How can a subordinate like me sleep during working hours? That's not good, Mr!" she scolded, feeling her boss was too lenient with her."Then what should I do? Do you want me to get angry, and nag you like I did with the other employees?" asked Wira in surprise."Yes." Riana nodded slowly."Um, unfortunately, I can't do that to you, even if you asked me to. Because I love you so much, I couldn't bear to scold you," Wira said."That sounds like a seduction," said Riana, who did not want to answer further."If that's what you think, that's fine. I can't force you to believe that what I'm saying now is from the heart, not just a flirt." Wira look

    "It's great to see this." Reynald clapped his hands as he looked into the car with the open window."What do you mean by seeing the view?" Riana asked, feeling a little provoked. She felt that Reynald was accusing her of doing something with Wira."What do you mean? If not doing the husband-wife scene we used to do when we were together," Reynald said, grinning."I'm not that bad to do that without being married!" Riana growled. Riana felt that her ex-husband knew she was not the woman people thought she was."How times have changed! You could have wanted our boss's money or looks, so you seduced him with your body," Reynald laughed loudly, thinking Riana's face was so funny because she had successfully mocked him.Riana clenched her hands into fists, eager to slap her ex-husband, who was being rude to her now. But of course, she would lose to male power, and Reynald could also use the law against her. Now, people will bring their problems to the law, even if they are the victim. Thi

    "Has it been two days since I want got the file we talking about?" asked Wulan, sounding a little angry with Lia's slow progress."What else can I do? If a lot of people are watching me, Mr. Wira is always with Riana. When they separate, each of them is only in the room, not going anywhere." Lia scratched her head, feeling frustrated."Stop making excuses!" Wulan said angrily.Wulan handed over the file to Wira's rival because she didn't want to be unemployed for too long. She was always teased by her other friends."Then you take it!" Lia said angrily. She didn't like being ordered. She hated it because it was very annoying.Wulan hearing that Lia didn't like being ordered, immediately started thinking of ways to get Lia back on her side again."Don't be like that, Lia," Wulan said sweetly, hoping Lia would soften."Whose fault is that! You know that I'm often watched because I keep watching the two of them," said Lia, remembering that Kiki had been watching her for the past two days

    All day at work, Riana only discussed work matters with Wira. The man seemed very indifferent toward her.Wira was sulking because Riana had been too lenient with Reynald. He wanted her to imprison her ex-husband instead of letting him get away with the grave mistake he had made—one that had tarnished her reputation.However, deep down, Wira wanted to talk to Riana. But he was too shy, and confused about how to start, especially since she seemed upset with him. And why wouldn’t she be? It was his own doing. Riana didn’t even know what she had done wrong to deserve to be ignored by him.“Riana,” Wira called softly.One hour before the workday ended, Wira wanted to speak with Riana.“What is it, Mr? Do you need something?” Riana smiled sweetly at her boss.“Never mind,” Wira replied.For some reason, Wira felt he smile was forced, even though it wasn’t.“If you need anything, please let me know. I’ll get it for you immediately.”“There’s no need,” Wira declined.Wira thought that since

    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
