Section 122

The days passed by Cempaka full of happiness, no longer humbling himself. Everyone is respectful and polite even though sometimes Cempaka still feels bad.

That day, Cempaka was confused with the workers who looked very busy at home. They've been working from dawn, taking some of the tools out of nowhere.

"Sir, Yudi! Where are they taking all that?" ask Cempaka to solve his curiosity.

"Part of the workers will help me prepare for the event for later tonight at the company, Madam," Yudi replied after bowing her head before Cempaka.

"Events? What's the show?" The woman's forehead was wrinkled, not long ago living in the house she knew nothing.

"Today's the company's birthday, ma'am. You have to prepare yourself to come to the party" Yudi said with a smile, like a father to his son.

Cempaka gaped with a mute tongue, not expecting so quickly he had to blend in with Caesar's surroundings. He did not know what to do, still standing there staring at Yudi who passed by arranging the workers.

"What's up, Manda?" lucy asked as she brought baby Zio.

"There will be a company birthday party later tonight" replied Cempaka without taking his eyes off the busy workmen.

Cempaka was accompanying the three babies playing with their nanny. Evan's baby is getting close to him because Caesar introduces Cempaka as the mother.

A message went into his phone, distracting Cempaka from those who play.

Get ready, I send an envoy to prepare you. You have to look beautiful, I'll pick you up at seven tonight.

The message from Caesar made the rhythm of Cempaka's heart erratic. A little relieved as he was about to send an envoy for her. Cempaka stared at the clock on the wall, still too early to prepare. Maybe in the afternoon the messenger will come.

The noise that occurred on the porch of the house distracts Cempaka from the message sent Caesar.

"Isn't that Eva's voice?" muttered Cempaka after recognizing the voice. Yes, the gate that opened due to the busyness of the workers made it easier for Eva and her accomplice to enter the courtyard. Yudi and the other workers had already left the house, leaving only some workers.

"Take them to the room! Don't come out no matter what. You are responsible for their safety!" cempaka's word to his three babysitters.

"Okay, Madam!" The three caregivers answered in unison, while moving while holding their respective foster babies.

"Manda!" Lucy came with a panicked and anxious face.

"It's okay, don't panic." Cempaka smiled as she patted Lucy on the shoulder.

Eva's voice echoed into the house. They were not allowed to enter by the guards right at the main door.

"Where is Caesar! I want to make a calculation with him. Find me with him!" eva shamelessly shouted. He comes in three with Lisa and the mother, ambushing inside even though the guards' defenses cannot be penetrated.

"Caesar's not home, he's in the office. If you want to make a calculation, come to his office. Don't make a fuss here" Eva said as she walked slowly with Lucy toward the main door.

The three guards split apart, standing on the right and left sides while looking down. Eva growled, she should have been the one who got the honor it wasn't Cempaka.

"Trease!" Lisa turns up, so does Eva's mother. He had not expected to meet the girl at Caesar's house.

"Treid?" He called out in disbelief.

"Oh, Stepmom. How are you doing? It seems like your life is much better than before" Cempaka said with a friendly smile. His actions invited confusion from those who were there.

"Th-stepmother?" lirih Eva stammered in disbelief.

The old woman looked at the nyalang Cempaka, the hatred in her heart grew. Moreover, it was Cempaka who had taken Caesar from his son.

"For what to talk about my situation. It was you who destroyed my son's household. Father and son are not much different. It's good that you go with your father in prison" said the old woman loudly.

Eva gaped, looking at the mother with widened eyes. It is unexpected, if the one who married his mother was the father of Cempaka.

"Why should I go with my father to prison? While I didn't do anything wrong. Are you afraid of all your rot I dismantle, Mother?" Cempaka pressed on the mother's words, his face still beaming at the woman. A smile that implied a threat to her.

"You ... What can you do?" challenge the woman arrogantly.

"I? I can do what? I can do whatever Eva used to do," said Cempaka, staring at Eva's figure who was still stunned by the new reality.

"Tell him, Eva .. ups, sorry, stepbrother. Tell him what you used to do?" continued Cempaka while looking at Eva deeply.

Eva clenched her lips as the jaw hardened. Both hands clenched tightly, wanting to tear off the face of Cempaka who currently looks haughty.

Lisa was still stunned by the circumstances before her eyes, everything looked complicated. He only glanced at Eva and Cempaka alternately, as well as their mother.

"Compense"

"Just like you were being the mistress of this house, right?" sela Cempaka further added to the emotions in Eva's heart.

"What did you do to Caesar so he sent me the divorce papers?" fierce Eva asked.

Cempaka frowned in confusion, knowing that Caesar had divorced Eva.

So, they're divorced? I thought I was only separated temporarily.

"Tell me, what have you done to her?!" eva snapped, her voice rising by several octaves.

"I didn't do anything. I don't even know if Caesar divorced you. Shouldn't you ask yourself? Not me. Or you go to Caesar and ask him about the reason for your divorce. I'm sure it wasn't because of me" said Cempaka still calmly responding to Eva's rant.

"You!" Eva quickly scratched Cempaka's face, but the guard there swiftly blocked her hand.

Eva rebelled, screaming like crazy. Cempaka smiled, walking slowly closer to him. There, Eva's mother also did not stay silent. He helps the child to escape from the clutches of the guard. However, dispelled by other guards.

"Let go of my son! Release us!" hoot thrashing.

"You see! In fact, one step you can't even get close to me. If you want to visit, then come well. Don't make a fuss, maybe I'll let you in and sit inside the house. Not like this," said Cempaka while shaking his head slowly.

"Shut up! This is my home, not yours. I'm the mistress here, not you!" eva's jolt was strong.

Cempaka with a beard, is not self-conscious of the woman.

"Who said that!" Everyone fell silent as other voices mingled in their debates.
