"You heard it yourself, right?" Jonny said triumphantly, then threw a document on the table. "Please check these files, Papa! I have also checked all the hospitals and maternity centers in the city Lolita lived in five years ago."
Both Hansel and Lolita could only remain silent without daring to defend themselves. They were used to Jonny's accusations of never getting tired of looking for trouble. Even though anger accompanies his gaze, Hansel seems ready for the consequences they will face for the lies they have been doing all this time. However, his mother, who always stood behind Hansel's success, did not want to remain silent. Hannah won't swallow Jonny's story whole. Considering that Jonny is always jealous of Hansel's success and achievements, it is not surprising that the man is always looking for her son's weaknesses. "I only believe in Hansel. It's impossible for my son to tell me such a big lie. These two women's must be your people's," Hannah said loudly, making Hansel feel guilty. "I agree with Hannah," Hilman just went along with it. Meanwhile, Jonny, who heard it, immediately laughed out loud. "Please ask your daughter-in-law! Ask about her relationship with these two women's!" said Jonny while pointing at Lolita. Lolita immediately hugged her son while closing her eyes. It hurt, of course she was hurt by the insult. In front of her family, Lolita was humiliated by her own brother-in-law. Hansel is dead. There was no point in defending them, because the child they brought was truly an adopted child. Also, the two women's who gave testimony were former household assistants who had worked with Lolita. "We won't just lose. To prove the clarity, we will do a DNA test," Hannah was sure of her thoughts. Until whenever, she will remain on the side of her son and daughter-in-law. After all, Hansel and Aarav looked so much alike, they were definitely father and son, Hannah thought confidently. Not once did she pay attention to the worry written on Hansel and Lolita's faces. "That's a very good idea," Joanna also expressed her opinion. "If Hansel is proven to have lied, he will not only be demoted from his position. All the facilities provided to the two of them must be immediately withdrawn," she said. As if Joanna was on the cusp of victory, she held her head high as she spoke. Elsewhere. Sherly is waiting for the results of the test she underwent several days earlier. With mixed feelings, Sherly sat in front of a handsome and dashing man. She was anxiously waiting for the final decision. Because she was too nervous, Sherly's hands started to get wet, and her back also started to feel wet from cold sweat. 'Hopefully I can get this job,' Sherly prayed silently while looking straight ahead. By working, she can have enough savings to meet the child she has never seen. After one month in the big city, this was the umpteenth time Sherly had applied to several companies. The nervousness is still visible and the person can feel mentally down if her job application is rejected again. In her hometown, Sherly deliberately left her first job. This time, she also went against her parents with the intention of finding the whereabouts of the child she had given birth to. Remembering her main goal, Sherly's enthusiasm flared again. Never giving up is Sherly's life motto when she misses her baby. "Welcome to join, Miss Tourti." In the end, the good words were heard too. "You are accepted to work at this company." The man named Santos reached out for a handshake. "Ah... really?" Sherly was moved. Both her eyes were perfectly round. "I'm actually accepted to work here?" She confirmed again before accepting Santos' outstretched hand."That's right, Miss Tourti," replied Santos, a little angrily. His hand was still outstretched, but the girl in front of him seemed to ignore him. "Have you changed your mind about refusing this offer?" Santos asked, his annoyance level increasing slightly. "Of course not, sir." With enthusiasm, Sherly immediately returned the outstretched hand. "Thank you, sir, I promise I will work as hard as possible, give my best for this company," she said, shaking his Santos hand. After Sherly left, Santos glanced again at Sherly's application file. Still far below standard, but because Santos liked Sherly's enthusiasm, he reconsidered and gave the girl a chance. "Is it because her face is beautiful?" Sofia, who was sitting next to Santos, teased. "I hope you don't regret it if it turns out that the girl doesn't make a good contribution to this company. Appearance is important, but remember, our job here is to screen workers based on their talents, not just physical." "Don't have any prejudices yet, it's better to quickly call the next candidate!" Santos ordered nonchalantly. "Okay, I'm just here to remind you," replied Sofia, then called the next applicant. In his heart, Santos admitted that he had fallen in love with Sherly at first sight. At the initial meeting, he was also the one who provided assistance and made things easier for Sherly during the testing period. However, Santos will not possibly reveal what is in his heart. As much as possible, he will restrain himself before finding out more about Sherly's life. Outside the building, Sherly immediately contacted her sister by telephone. In just a few seconds, the call was immediately connected. "Sister, I've got a good job, tell Sita that I'm ready to pay whatever she wants, as long as she tells the parents who raised my child!" Sherly half-begged Selvi to grant her wish. [Work first, Sherly, later i will find a way to get Sita to help you without having to make things difficult for you.] "Okay, I will work hard and save for my child," said Sherly with an enthusiastic expression. Meanwhile at the other end, Selvi looked gloomy when she heard her sister's enthusiasm. She felt guilty about the lie they were planning, which was that Sita never actually wanted money from Sherly. Even the payments given by Lolita are still flowing until now, so how could Sita have the heart to drain Sherly's money? She was only forced to play out this evil scenario at the request of Sherly's family and also Lolita who did not expect Aarav's biological mother to come back. Two weeks have passed, the DNA test results between Aarav and Hansel have come out. Not half-hearted, Alexander carried out the DNA test at five different hospitals. All at the request of Jonny and Tiffany as Rossel's descendants who were most suspicious of Hansel. "It's time to eradicate this troubling pest." Jonny glared at Hansel and without hesitation cursed his eldest brother.Rosell company. "You have made a mistake for the umpteenth time!" Sofia again reprimanded Sherly. She put her hands on her hips in front of Sherly. "You've only been working for a few days and you've already done something careless. This time, don't expect Santos to help you," added Sofia, frighteningly. "I'll fix it right away, Miss. Bell." While looking down, Sherly defended herself. "And I think this is just a small mistake, it only takes a few hours, I can definitely do it." Sherly is not a stupid woman. The error is also not big. Right now, she just had a lot on her mind. Her father told her to come back, even though her intention to meet her son had not been carried out. "No need," Sofia said cruelly. "I will report this directly to my superiors, so that he will determine your punishment. Thank goodness you will only be fired without having to pay compensation or be imprisoned." Under the threat of Sofia who had left her, Sherly breathed a sigh of relief as she looked at the
After receiving a call from Reynand, Hansel looked back at Lolita's face who was lying on the bed. The woman must have been shocked by this news. Even though no feelings of love grew for Lolita, a slight feeling of guilt remained within Hansel. After all, they are legally husband and wife and always show a harmonious attitude in public, especially in front of their extended family. Of course it hurts after knowing a secret this big. However, Hansel also didn't want to just blame himself. He didn't do this on purpose. Even Hansel is a very picky person and is not too crazy about sex. His main priority is work and seeking pleasure with another woman is not on his life list. It is proven that at such a mature age and brilliant career, Hansel never squandered money just for the sake of lust satisfaction. One negative thought appeared in Hansel's mind. "Loli, will you still love Aarav as before and treat him like your own child after knowing this truth?" Hansel is doubtful considering
"Hey... I'm talking to you, come on, open your mouth, say something!" Sofia is arrogantly coercive. She didn't hesitate to grip Sherly's arm which had been shaking for a long time. Sofia was so angry with Sherly that she no longer had any empathy for the woman. Not long after, Santos, who was also Sherly's boss, came over. He already knew Sherly's problem. He feel worried. "What happened, Sherly?" Santos' question immediately grew deeper jealousy in Sofia's heart. The woman's face turned red like burning embers. This is not the first time Sherly has made a mistake. And every time that happens, Santos will come as a defender and be the hero every time. However, now, with her cunning, Sofia finally managed to complain about Sherly's mistake to her superiors before Santos heard about the woman's problems. "That's because she's not good at work," said Sofia in a quick and curt tone. "But it can still be solved, right?" Santos understood the real situation, that's why he immediately
"What does it mean?" Santos immediately protested to Reynand. Meanwhile, the person who was asked chose to remain silent and just shrugged his shoulders as if he didn't want to interfere any further. The woman Hansel is referring to is definitely Sherly. Santos thinks so. Why is Hansel in such a hurry to meet Sherly? Santos couldn't wait for Reynand's answer. He asked again. "Aren't you embarrassed to interfere with a trivial matter like this?" Through Reynand, Santos' relationship with Hansel is quite close. He also asked the big boss a question. "Hansel, where is your high and authoritative attitude? Don't you feel inferior for directly intervening on the lowest level of staff in this company?" Even though there was a slight feeling of reluctance, Santos' tone was very brave this time. He seemed to be mocking, because Hansel was known for being cold to his subordinates. Hansel turned to Reynand. His gaze meant that his trusted person would immediately resolve the problem with S
"Why so serious? You haven't even seen her after 6 years, what if she has changed or isn't what you thought?" teased Reynand, wanting to see how strong his friend's determination was. Hansel's lips were pressed tightly as he looked at Reynand. His expression proved that he agreed with the man's words. Yes, Hansel only met Sherly once, why was he suddenly obsessed with this young woman? "Could it be that she used a mask or heavy make-up to attract rich men when you first met," Reynand tried to influence again, even though he himself was fascinated when he saw Sherly who was innocent and attractive. Hansel nodded slowly, but in a split second he was able to find another answer. When he first saw Sherly in the nightclub, there was already a feeling of attraction for the girl. Sherly's beautiful face and slender body were the main points for Hansel at the beginning of the meeting. However, it cannot be denied that at that time, Hansel was also attracted by Sherly's laughter. According
Six years have passed, Sherly always tries to forget her dark past. Because she doesn't want to be the third person in Hansel's household relationship, Sherly also doesn't want to remember the name of the man she has slept with. Even though she has a child with Hansel, Sherly thinks it was just a mistake and there is no need to hold the man responsible. For a few moments Hansel and Sherly stared at each other. The two of them observed each other. Hansel is still handsome with his metrosexual style. Even Sherly is becoming more graceful as she matures. Six years ago. At a nightclub. Hansel is celebrating a recent collaboration with a new client. The nightclub is the only nightlife venue in the area. So there are lots of people who want to spend the night having fun or just filling the void. This included a group of young people who deliberately entered a nightclub to celebrate graduation day. There were around ten people sitting in a place not far from Hansel and his colleagues'
Sherly was shocked, her eyes widened in panic. Don't know what else to say. She didn't expect that since that incident, Hansel was still looking for her whereabouts. 'Isn't he already married, so why is he looking for me?' Sherly thought. 'Then what if he finds out I gave birth to his child?' Sherly became increasingly afraid. She couldn't possibly be helpless if she had to deal with a man like Hansel. Hansel stood up and approached Sherly who was as still as a statue. "You still remember me, right?" Sherly nodded awkwardly without daring to make a sound. "Good..." Hansel nodded happily. "Now I ask, why did you just go and leave me that day?" Hansel's smile was so charming, his voice was soft when he asked, but Sherly was still afraid when she was close to the man. Nobody know what she was feeling right now, Sherly wanted to turn into the wind and disappear at that very second. Click. From outside, Reynand suddenly arrived and deliberately disrupted the meeting. Hoping
"Stop it!" Reynand's voice sounded shrill. He took over the anger that Hansel felt to maintain his friend's authority. It wasn't just Sherly and Sofia who turned to the source of the sound, everyone who heard immediately looked at Reynand, then moved to Hansel. Hansel's gaze first fell on Sherly who was holding her cheek. There is a feeling of wanting to approach the woman and defend her, but is held back because of the image that must be maintained. He was a boss, impossible to lower himself to defend a woman he had just met. Apart from that, Hansel is always depicted as having a strong, firm and authoritative leadership attitude. He is not only emotionally cold, but also rarely talks to people who are not considered very important. Reynand immediately walked towards Sofia. Likewise, Hansel accompanied Reynand. Instantly everyone lowered their heads. No one dared to move from their place. There are those who regret watching the commotion, but quite a few are curious about the p
Hansel wanted to surprise his wife after they returned, but the surprises presented themselves one by one. Yes, Sherly's parents entered the room first. Rosali immediately hugged Sherly, followed by Selvi and her small family. Meanwhile, Morgu looked down embarrassed after entering the room. He didn't even dare to witness the closeness between Sherly and Selvi, nor with his wife who really loved Sherly. "Dad...!" Sherly mentioned the call to Morgu. Even though the old man was not her biological father and openly cut ties with him, Sherly still considered him as her father. "Dad, come here!" Immediately Morgu was moved by the call. He immediately hugged Sherly. "I'm sorry, I was very mean to you, my selfish father has been using you all this time," he said regretfully. "I've forgotten about it," replied Sherly sincerely. "To me, you are still my father." At that time, Rosali stroked Sherly's hair again. She also said, "But you need to know who your real biological parent
"Sherly...!" Hansel whispered in his wife's ear to wake her up. "Sherly... wake up, here I come." Slowly, Sherly blinked lazily. In this second pregnancy, she became sleepy easily. Her eyes could no longer be compromised. Her body was also tired during the journey. That's why Ronald let Sherly rest for tonight, but with her hands tied. "Hansel..." With one hand, Sherly rubbed her eyes. She was still doubtful about her vague vision. "You came, is it really you who came?" she asked to make sure what she saw wasn't part of a dream. "Yes, here I come," Hansel confirmed. To convince Sherly, he kissed the woman's lips three times. "Stay calm here!" Next, Hansel immediately looked for a way to untie Sherly's hand. "Do you know where the key is?" Hansel asked after trying to find the key to the handcuffs that tied Sherly's hands. "It's on Ronald." Sherly raised herself to sit. "He tied me up like this, because he was afraid I would try to escape." There was no hop
After being attacked by Yoga's people, Hamza still does not regret his actions. Instead of prohibiting or asking for a detailed explanation, he actually encouraged the criminals to continue their mission. "Just take her away, it's up to you what you want to do, I don't care about the safety of this unlucky woman!" Hamza let it go, and was even happy to see Sherly being carried by someone they didn't know. "Dad, why are you so heartless towards Sherly?" Lolita was helpless because her space for movement was blocked by Hamza and her father's men. When Sherly was taken by a group of criminals, Lolita sat limp on the floor. For several minutes, she cried uncontrollably. She screamed, feeling bad for not being able to provide help to her pregnant sister. 'Come quickly, Hansel!' Lolita said to herself. She had sent a message to Hansel before entering the building. "Never mind, don't act stupid like this as if she is very important to us!" Hamza didn't feel guilty. He persuaded
"How could you fail to get Sherly?" Ronald was furious to find out that two of his people's had been preceded by other people. "You were there already, you have even entered the house since morning, haven't you seen anyone suspicious?" "Sorry, Mr. Ronald, we didn't know if that man also wanted Sherly." One of the two men answered. "Too many people were looking at Sherly, we had a hard time guessing who wanted to kidnap her that night." "Stupid...! You guys are stupid, useless!" Ronald snapped. Don't accept that reason. In case, no one followed Ronald's steps at any time, he would have taken matters into his own hands. Ronald's hatred for Sherly and Hansel was too high, making the man willing to spend a lot of money just to get revenge. "Don't be reckless like that, Ronald!" Yoga suddenly appeared in the room. He patted Ronald on the shoulder, then said again. "I already know who took Sherly, and I also know where they took her." Ronald turned his head. "Who preceded me?
The luxury mansion with the most complete facilities in the city suddenly experienced internal problems with lighting. This certainly raised suspicion among the residents of the house or guests that night. Especially Hansel who lost Sherly in a matter of seconds. As soon as the lights returned to illuminate room after room, the first thing Hansel did was look for his wife. "Sherly... Sherly...!" Hansel called his wife as he walked back and forth. With a panicked face, he walked through every room closest to where they were originally standing. As the owner of the mansion, Hilman immediately gave orders to his trusted people to check the security conditions in the house. "Check everything around the house, don't miss anything! If there is anything suspicious, report it immediately!" The assistant moved to carry out his duties. "Why did she disappear by herself?" Alexander was amazed. "Among all the people in this room, why is that woman the only one who disappeared?" he re
Sherly tried to pull her hand out of Hansel's grasp, but the man wouldn't let it go. "Hansel... everyone is looking at us. Please let go of my hand, reassure your family and I will look after Aarav!" she's looking for safety. Hansel disagrees. He was actually excited to bring Sherly and Aarav to his family. "We face it together!" he said. "What does this mean?" Even though he understood Hansel's intentions, Hilman still asked, and he did so only to maintain his famously firm authority in front of their family colleagues. Hansel was not at all afraid to face Hilman. When he was standing right in front of his grandfather, he introduced his wife first. "The woman I brought is called Sherly. Doesn't Grandpa want to meet her? I've brought her, please accept her as a daughter-in-law in this family as my wife!" asked Hansel in an even voice. There was no doubt, but he still looked wary if Hilman did not accept Sherly's presence. Instead of answering, Hilman turned his gaze to
After several days passed, Vonny still couldn't accept Sherly's presence as her sister. She hated that woman too much, so how could she forget their enmity? Vonny's anger exploded even more when she found out that Sherly had married Hansel and that they also had a child who had been cared for by Lolita. "I won't let you get everything that should be mine, Sherly. I will destroy your life." Vonny looked at the picture of Santos with Sherly. The photo looks intimate, hugging, kissing, making anyone who sees it believe that the two of them are in a serious relationship. "With all this, I will embarrass you in front of Hansel's family. Just watch, Sherly, everyone will be even more disgusted to see you. And I'm sure Hansel won't accept you anymore." Vonny thinks Sherly is lucky just because of their similarities. "Don't expect me to think of you as a younger sibling, I will never accept that!" That evening, Vonny will also attend an event at Rossel's residence. In the name of he
When Santos moved towards her, Sherly immediately raised both hands to stop the man. "Stop right there, don't come any closer!" she is still traumatized by Santos' treatment of her. "I just want to talk for a moment, Sherly, I don't want to be rude to you." Santos remained silent. "Please give me a chance to apologize to you. I really regret my stupidity." "Didn't Hansel tell you to solve your problems at this company?" Sherly reminded Santos and ignored the man's words. "Please get out of here immediately!" she asked again. To convince Sherly, Santos immediately knelt in front of Sherly. He clasped his hands together, lowering himself so that Sherly would believe him. "Please forgive me, Sherly, I won't be able to calm down until I get forgiveness from you. My goal in coming today is just to get forgiveness from you." "I swear on my mother's name, I regret everything I did at that time. I made a mistake, Sherly, please forgive me!" Santos begged again. Hearing Santos'
While putting the drink bottle on the table, Sherly gave Hansel a code not to rush into revealing their relationship in front of the middle-aged woman. They both knew that Farah was not in a good condition to receive such shocking news. "I understand," said Hansel in a low voice. After that, he stood up first to greet Santos and Farah. "Good afternoon, Hansel!" Farah looked more enthusiastic, so she greeted first. "Does our arrival bother you?" "Not at all, Auntie," said Hansel kindly. "Come on, sit down first!" At that time Sherly also approached, but she didn't want to talk to Santos. Her anger towards the man had not completely disappeared. So she just greeted Farah and helped the woman to sit on the sofa right next to her. Santos followed suit. The feeling of guilt towards Sherly made the man silent a thousand words. Until now, he has not had the opportunity to apologize directly to Sherly. Now, in front of Farah, he was acting friendly towards Hansel, as if there h
