After My Husband Cheated, I Became Rich

40. Jealous

Radit's decision to become a spy and help Alea to regain what belonged to his ex-wife was the right decision. That made Radit well received by the Alea family. Riki and Anita even give back their trust in Radit, by attracting Radit to work in Global Pratama helping Riki.

It was not only the Alea family that received Radit well. Sundari, the oma of Bagas, also appreciated Radit's decision to help Alea, even though it was a male guilt-redeemer to Alea.

Having returned to work, not making Radit's life good, she feels her life is lonely without her loved ones. Twice he lost just because of his stupidity and high ego. Radit dispelled his intention to return home, the dream he was forced to bury because of his condition and his very bad health.

"What keeps you happy after you split from Boy?" radit asked Ratna on the sidelines to do their job.

"My daughter." replied Ratna.

"My daughter is able to comfort my sorrow and relieve my fatigue. He made me become the spirit of living all this." continued Ratna answer.

"Child." muttered Radit remembering Ratna's answer and thought about adopting a child.

Alea's request to advocate for the boys in the orphanage flashed across his head. Radit thought, there is no harm if now he tries to adopt a child even though he will take care of the child only alone.

Rounding out his determination, Radit took the time to go to the Mother Gem orphanage. She wanted to meet the child Alea had told her about, whom Alea had once wanted them to adopt.

Stepping sure Radit also met the mother of the leader of the Mother Gem orphanage.

"Is there anything we can do for you, sir?" ask the orphanage's mother to Radit..

"I want to meet one of the children of the orphanage, the boy who had wanted to be adopted by Alea" Radit replied.

"Did Alea send you?" ask the house's head mother again.

"Yes, he recommended the child for me to adopt." replied Radit, let this time he lied a little.

"Do you want to adopt it?" ask the mother to convince again.

"If my heart matches that of the child, today I will adopt that child immediately" Radit explained.

"Alright sir, please come with me to see the boy you mean" replied the mother of the home invited Radit to meet the child he was going to adopt.

"That's his son, it just so happens that his school is on vacation" pointed the mother of the head of the orphanage to Zio who was accompanying the orphanage child who was still a toddler playing.

Seeing Zio for the first time Radit's heart immediately fell in love, his chest pounding. I don't know why he knew that kid. The boy was very handsome, and also reminded Radit of someone.

"How Sir?" asked the mother of the head of the parlour as soon as she saw Radit just silently glued to look at Zio.

"May I speak to Zio, ma'am?" ask Radit for permission.

"Of course please get to know Zio first." replied the house's mother and called Zio.

"Zio." called out to him while swinging his hand for Zio to get closer.

An hour Radit spent with Zio, he took Zio to talk and play while occasionally paying attention to the attitude and nature of the child. Alea was right, if Zio was a good kid and also smart.

The more Radit looked at Zio, the more Radit felt like he had known the boy for a long time. Radit felt like seeing Zio was like seeing himself and someone from his past.

"May I know, how did Zio get to be in this orphanage?" radit asked as soon as he went back to meet the mother of the Mother's jewel orphanage.

Radit was not only curious, but somehow he suspected someone he knew who had sent Zio to this place.

"Of course, the party who wants to adopt should know about the child they are going to adopt. From the start who his parents are and why he was placed in this orphanage." replied the head of the orphanage.

"Zio was ushered and entrusted by a couple, they also gave enough money for this home so we would accept the baby they would leave." explained the mother of the home.

"At that time they didn't want to explain anything. They just asked and entrusted us to take good care of Zio"

"Mom know the name of the couple who brought Zio to this home?" ask Radit again.

"They didn't mention their names, but they did list the name of Zio's biological father when he handed Zio over." replied the house's mother while giving a file about Zio.

"This, all of Zio's data is there including the name of his biological father, but unfortunately they don't want to mention the name of Zio's biological mother" explained the lead mother

Radit took the file given by the mother of the caretaker, he immediately searched for the name of Zio's biological father.

"Raditya Angkasa." muttered Radit as soon as he read the name listed as the biological name of Zio.

Radit's eyes were round in disbelief, what he was thinking turned out to be true. Zio's son and the man whose name Radit forgets as soon as he leaves Radit for his career.

One name of Radit's past comes back to fill his memory. Radit should be angry that he was never told about Zio's whereabouts, but the anger he was throwing away because at this time fate reunited him with his biological son when he was sentenced could not have offspring.

"Did Alea know the name of Zio's biological father" Radit asked to confirm if Alea didn't know the truth.

"Mak Alea hasn't seen Zio's file yet, she just talked about adopting Zio and will talk about her wishes with her husband" replied the house's mother.

"But unfortunately, her wish has not been achieved, she has a problem with her husband." continued the mother of the caretaker made Radit speechless.

"Dad." Zio's voice that called out to him pulled Radit away from his reverie.

"Zio is done" said Zio again.

"Let's go home then." take Radit with Zio's hand.

"Zio hasn't finished his meal yet" rejected Zio, who doesn't want to go home.

"The food was cleaned by the waiter because we thought we were gone. We'll eat somewhere else how?" radit replied, persuading Zio.

Radit won't be returning the shirt where Paula is still there. He doesn't want Paula to know about who Zio is, Radit doesn't want Paula to take custody of Zio from him. Salah Paula who had already wasted their son by putting Zio in an orphanage.

Meanwhile in the hotel room, Alea was tidying her clothes in a suitcase. He was surprised by the sound of Bagas' cell phone above the nightstand. Alea approached the nightstand to answer the phone call, afraid that it was an important call. But she undoes her intentions when she sees the name on the screen contacting her husband.

"Paula." murmured Alea.

Why did she contact her husband? Their relationship has ended a long time ago. Alea had no idea that Bagas and Paula were still in contact all this time, what was the purpose of Paula coming back to Bagas' life? Alea should know that. Once he's hurt and failed, there won't be a second word.

"Who's calling baby?" tanya Bagas was so out of the bathroom.

"Don't know." Alea answered lying while returning to tidying up her suitcase after she was silent for a moment.

Bagas grabbed his phone and saw there was a missed call from Paula. Bagas was sure Alea knew but his wife pretended not to know. Bagas approached Alea and hugged his wife from behind. Cup, Bagas peeked Alea.

"I have nothing to do with him anymore" whispered Bagas.

Alea was silent, she did not react to answer Bagas' explanation. Alea did not know what kind of attitude to respond to that explanation for now. His heart was still filled with many questions. She turns herself in ignorant of Bagas and Paula's past relationship, which she knows both agreed to divorce for not loving each other. Alea found out about it from Lisa's sister-in-law, not from Bagas' own mouth.

His case is different from Radit and himself, Bagas knows a lot about Alea's previous relationship and life. Then, was it wrong for Alea to be jealous of Paula who was back in contact with Bagas at this time?
