At exactly ten o'clock in the morning Alvian's car arrived in front of the gate of the Suherman residence. The man then frowned looking at the front yard of the very elite house. Alvian did not expect that his wife was from a very wealthy family.
After a guard opened the fence, Alvian stepped on the gas pedal entering the vast area of the house.
"Darling, is this really your home?" tanya Alvian confirmed shortly after turning off the car engine. Before he never asked about this, he really did not know about Anika's life.
"Not Mas, this is Dad's house." said Anika humbled, she felt unworthy of bragging. According to him, there is nothing to be proud of because the fact is that he did not build a house that grand.
"Just like, baby, you're his son." Alvian replied, he was a little inferior after knowing the truth. He felt unworthy to be the husband of a single heiress of Suherman descent.
After all, Anika had never revealed herself to Alvian, Alvian thought Anika was not this great.
"Here you go, you don't have to overdo it. Even though Dad's house is very luxurious, I am still more comfortable in Mas' house because that's where I really am" said Anika.
"Related?" Alvian frowned while looking at Anika intimately.
"Of course sure," Anika's nod carved a smile.
Instantly a thin grin curled at the corner of Alvian's lips, she felt happy to hear Anika's reply which made her very proud.
Alvian got out of the car and opened the door for Anika. After Anika came down, the two clasped each other and walked into the mansion.
"Remember the promise. Whatever happens in there, Mas can't leave me." said Anika warning, she was afraid Alvian could not face the anger Suherman later.
"Hmm.." nodded with confidence.
Arriving inside, Anika's arrival was immediately greeted by Tuti. The waiter seemed happy to see Anika coming, only that he was a little confused looking at Alvian who was still clasping her hand tightly. "Non.." said.
"Where's the father, Ma'am?" anika asked politely and brought Alvian to sit in the living room.
"There's Non, Father again in the room. Ma'am call me first yes,"
Tuti quickly walked out of the living room, he climbed the stairs to Suherman's room on the second floor.
While Tuti was calling Suherman, Anika left Alvian stuff for a moment. She entered the kitchen and made drinks for her husband. He must not be off guard, there could be a bad strategy planned by his stepmother if she let others make drinks for them.
"Here you go, have a drink!" said Anika while putting the drink she just made earlier on the table.
"Well, how did you make it?" Alvian frowned.
"It's okay, it's not my duty to serve Mas." said Anika clearly.
"It could be you. It's a shame that we're not at home" hissed Alvian smiled mischievously.
"What if we're not home?" Anika knitted her confused brows.
"Hehe... Wanting to give her a gift," Alvian suddenly chuckled and pulled Anika into her arms.
"Hide... Must be a slobber, right?" anika held back laughter.
"He'eh... Just know you," said Alvian, pinching Anika's nose. Both of them laughed out loud.
However, the laughter of the two could not last long. Anika and Alvian instantly fell silent as they caught the arrival of Suherman and his new wife coming down the stairs.
Alvian suddenly snapped and rounded his eyes wide. He could not believe what he was seeing right now.
Alvian regained his senses and quickly let go of his grasp. "Pardon me dear, Mas unintentionally." he murmured.
Meanwhile, the woman standing next to Suherman suddenly fell silent to Alvian and Anika. She was surprised to see Alvian in her husband's house, but she could not show her surprise in front of everyone. She does not want her past to be known to Anika and Suherman.
"Dad.." said Anika who was still sitting on Alvian's side, she did not want to stand up in disgust at the snake woman standing next to Suherman.
"Anika's... Where have you been, son? Said mother-"
"Anika's mother is calm up there, Anika has no mother other than her" Anika said.
"Dear, don't talk like that! Anyway, this is-"
"Sorry Dad, Anika came home not to argue. Anika came here because she wanted to tell Dad that Anika did not want to marry Rio. Anika annulled the marriage and now Anika is married to someone else." Anika was silent for a moment and turned towards Alvian.
"What do you mean?" Suherman raised his voice, he was very surprised to hear Anika's confession and chose to sit face to face.
"Anika wouldn't marry that bastard and that traitor. Enough Dad who was fooled by the beauty of his young wife, Anika is not as stupid as Dad" he said to make Suherman confused and angry.
"Anika, what are you talking about? What's your fault with you? Why do you always corner Mom, son?" timpal the woman who was now sitting next to Suherman, at once his countenance looked sad.
"Based on hypocritical women, cheap women are shameless!" anika stared intently at the woman.
"Enough Anika!" suherman's snarl raised the voice with one hand raised up. It seemed like he wanted to slap Anika in the face for already daring to curse at his wife.
"Why stop, Dad? Go, hit!" challenge Anika without any trepidation.
"Based on a stubborn child, you should be grateful to have a mother like her. What's her lack of you? She loves you like her own daughter" Suherman said.
"Darling?" Anika smiled wryly. "Originally you know, the demon woman never loved Anika or Dad. She's Dad's demon, she's not as good as Dad thinks." said Anika who was impatient to open the ulcers of her stepmother.
"Enough Anika, don't provoke Dad's anger!" beaver Suherman.
"Let it go, I'm not as good as I thought. Anika's right, we shouldn't have to"
"No Lira, don't listen to Anika. He's it's just-"
"What's Dad?" Anika cut Suherman's words. "I really don't understand Dad's way of thinking. What do you expect from that cunning woman? She cheated on Dad's back, she slept with Rio. He also hurt me, he pushed me up the stairs. Open Father's eyes, he and Rio conspired to dredge Father's treasure. Conscious Dad!" said Anika.
"Silent Anika, or-"
Suherman got up from his seat and jerked Anika's hand firmly. Seeing his wife being bullied, Alvian quickly pulled Anika into his arms. "Sorry sir, Anika is indeed your daughter, but now this woman is legally my wife. I'm not going to let anyone hurt her, not least with you let alone the woman." Alvian insisted with emphasis. He looked at Suherman and his wife in turn.
Hearing the Alvian narration, Suherman then fell silent at once. He just let go of Anika's hand. While Lira who heard that was suddenly stunned with a dark look of disbelief.
"Actually our goal came here to ask you for your blessing. But it seems like our arrival was wrong, it turns out you are not as good as I thought." Alvian held Anika tightly while rubbing her arm.
"At first I thought Anika was just misunderstanding her mother. But after seeing who that figure was, I was very sure that what Anika said was true. You are indeed a fool for trusting that hypocritical woman more. How could he love Anika, his biological child was abandoned by him just for the sake of property. Keep your eyes open, lest you regret it after it's too late!" alvian.
After saying that, Alvian clasped Anika's hand tightly. "Let's go, baby, we're home!" Alvian pulled Anika out of the room.
A moment after Alvian and Anika disappeared, Suherman was stunned on the sofa. All of Anika's words just now reverberated through her brain.
