This afternoon Adam left his office 15 minutes early, while his brother still had some papers to complete. This time Adam did deliberately go home a little early because there was a place he wanted to go first.
No need for a long time, the destination is the Sun cake shop, Adam wanted to buy some pudding and cake for stock at home because Omanya forgot to buy this afternoon. Adam's white car was parked not far from the cake shop with full glass in the front.
Before he went down he saw Belen appeared to be talking seriously with a man, but if you see the look of Belen's face is uncomfortable.
...
Inside the Sun cake shop.
"let's just say Belen come with me once, we're shopping for clothes or whatever you like after we have dinner okay?" said the man with a shirt that rolled his hands up to the elbow.
"i'm sorry, but I'm so busy. Maybe next time I'll accept your invitation" Belen replied, covering up his annoyance with a forced smile.
"this is the umpteenth time you've rejected me Belen. Did our first impression of coming out not make you happy?" the man asked Belen again.
"not. Of course it's fun, but I have a lot of orders" that's the only reason Belen can give. Indeed, many times the man took him away, until one day he once agreed to his invitation for lunch.
"does I need to get people to help you with your work?" the man continued to force her to hold both of Belen's wrists.
"that doesn't need Rio. Really if I had time I'd be with you for dinner" now Belen's trying to let go of his hand.
"you can't refuse this time Belen" Rio pulled Belen's hand up to the door of the shop.
"don't be rude to the master woman" said Adam blocking the exit.
Rio suddenly became annoyed because someone dared to reprimand him. And yet to take Belen's wrist off he's trying to break past Adam.
"can't you see he's in pain, Mr. Alfario?" Adam let go of Rio's hand and threw him a little rough.
"are you okay, Belen?" adam asked Belen regardless of the upset look on Rio.
"not supposed to be an Adam Ankawijaya meddling in people's affairs" Rio said coldly.
"excuse my disrespect, Mr. Alfario, but I know this girl, if you want to take her away, don't be forced" Adam replied casually.
"ehm Adam, this is not a problem. We are old friends and have not met Rio for a long time just invite me out but I was busy, so he was a little interesting me earlier" explained Belen trying to ease the atmosphere.
"did you hear Mr Adam?" Rio gave a sharp look at Adam and then left the cake shop.
"disrespectful basics" murmured Adam.
"forgive me Adam made you disagree with him. Oiya, what are you doing here this afternoon" asked Belen to switch the conversation.
"oh yeah I almost forgot my purpose here Belen. Oma forgot to buy stock cake and pudding, so I stopped by to buy her. Can you please provide a cake as well as pudding that Oma used to buy for home?" adam was clear about his coming goal.
"of course it doesn't matter Adam, wait a minute" Belen said kindly.
Adam waited for the deft Belen to pick up some chocolate cake, cheese cake, rainbowcake as well as some pudding in a small cup cup.
On the other hand he also thought about the incident just now. What does Belen have to do with Alfario? was he the man the shopkeeper said to be the one during the day when Oma asked about Belen's closeness to the men? Wasn't Alfario who served as CEO at hotel X belonging to the Eclipse group very difficult for women to approach? Are they really just old friends?
Some questions arose in Adam's mind about the man his brother's age.
"uh yeah? have you prepared?" ask Adam who saw Belen with a large paper bag in his hand.
"already, Oma usually transfers the money so you can take it" replied Belen handing over the paperbag in his hand.
"all right I'll transfer now, can you give me your account number?" After Belen told him his account number Adam also made transactions with his cellphone.
"it's done, thanks Belen"
"oh yes, come to Divya's birthday, she will definitely be very happy if you participate" added Adam before turning away from Belen.
"of course I will try" said Belen who was greeted by a nod by Adam then passed away from his cake shop.

"hey I haven't let you in yet" said Ibra, who works out in her room.
"is it common?" adam lamented by laying down his body in Ibra's bed.
"Abang, I just met Alfario, isn't he the right-hand man of Eclipse who served as CEO at their hotel?" adam told his brother.
Ibra stopped her activity, grabbed a small towel, dried her face and some parts of her body were flooded with sweat. Take cold water in his mini fridge, sit on the sofa and gulp it down to the toilet.
"where did you meet?" tanya Ibra is brief.
"sun cake shop. I saw him chatting with Belen but Belen felt uncomfortable which he was then forced to pull by Alfario" explained Adam about the incident.
"what's he there?" Ibra asked again as if interested in her sister's story.
"either, Belen said the man wanted to take her out but she refused. Which makes me wonder that man is not very difficult to approach women? maybe he's interested in Belen. As the store clerk said that there was a man who repeatedly approached Belen and took him out but Belen always refused" now Adam slightly glanced at the expression of his brother who was either interested in his unexpected encounter with Alfario or the information regarding Belen.
"the matter of Alfario asking Louis to investigate, may be helpful enough about the disclosure of the Storm and Eclipse relationship" Ibra argued.
"well, it's a simple matter, but are you sure you're not interested in information about Belen?" tempt Adam who already knew where his brother was taking Belen away this afternoon.
"for what?" ibra cold said.
"Abang was working with him would need some information about him, right?" answer Adam who had risen from his brother's bed.
"no business about that! hurry out I want to take a shower" ordered Ibra who had stepped into her bathroom.
"it looks like your rival isn't just me bang" Adam then closed his brother's room.
Obviously Ibra was very interested in Adam's unexpected meeting with the right hand of the Eclipse, because it is not known until now who is the head of the Eclipse. He just raises his right hand in every affair.
The second Ibra is also interested to know what relationship between Belen and a man like Alfario. The man is known to be cold in the mafia world. In fact, he often launched attacks on his enemies, killing them and taking his territory.
It's possible that a girl like Belen has a special relationship with a guy like Alfario.
