Behind the Rain and Memories

58. Don't Hurt Him

Bugh.....

Max punched the samsak with emotion, the sweat that poured down his body was no longer ignored. His hands continued to move forward alternately without stopping, almost an hour of activity he did to reduce the disappointment and anger that clumped in the chest. Disappointed at Alina and angry at the circumstances.

She thought her encounter with Alina back after three years apart would bring a happy hue in her life story. It turns out to be wishful thinking. He was again faced with a strange situation. I don't know when his relationship with the girl he loved so much was tinged with problems.

" Sister, I want to talk! " said Adinda suddenly appeared on the door of the gym room.

" Say! " said Max without looking.

" There's something serious I have to say, sister, can you stop for a moment! " Adinda begged.

Max stopped the movement of his hand, looking at Adinda with a probing look. The man took a towel and wiped his face

" About what! " ask again.

Adinda was silent for a moment then heaved a heavy sigh.

" The papi and my husband"

Max caught the grief on his sister's face.

" 10 minutes, wait in the den!" decreed

The younger brother nodded then passed from the front of Max. The man did not waste time, he immediately took a shower to clean himself not only he had prepared in a casual suit and then met Adinda.

" So, your papi is behind all this mess" Max said, looking into the financial statements the woman was carrying.

No wonder to hear the story of Adinda, from the beginning Max no longer believes in his uncle. Since the death of his wife, Om Hartawan is like losing his way. No longer focus on work until the company is almost bankrupt.

He is willing to plant a stake in the Hartawan company for the future of Adinda and her children. He also did not want one of the assets of the relics of the grandfather destroyed. Hopefully with the presence of Bryan as CEO can provide development. The company was indeed quite stable under Bryan's leadership, only that Hartawan used his power to suppress.

" You should be honest, if this is what we can do besides improving the financial flow again, I heard Bryan is submitting a proposal for resort construction in Bali, how will it go? "

The sister nodded weakly.

" I'm sorry, sis, everything has already happened, I can't refuse papi, I'll hand this company back to brother, "

Max frowned.

"Bryan resigned, he does not want to manage the company anymore, I am also incompetent in this field, " said Adinda lethargic.

Max now understands, he believes that Adinda and Bryan are having problems. Although he did not like the man very much, Bryan was still his sister-in-law.

" You guys are having trouble? " tanyanya gently. Silent sister. But the clear feathers that fall over the cheeks are enough as an answer.

Max stood up from sitting, and approached Adinda, carrying the woman in an embrace making Adinda unable to stem the sadness, she cried sobbing in Max's chest.

For a while Max let the situation until it felt calm then Max asked back the problems faced by his sister.

" My husband has not been able to forget his past brother, not only resigned, he also wanted to return to Mega Buana and investigate the person who had framed us at that time, "

Max's jaw hardened hearing Adinda's story, he was very sure all this was related to Alina's return.

Max did not understand how Bryan could be honest with Adinda without thinking that he had hurt his own wife.

Coinciding with the door being knocked from the outside, Bryan appears looking for Adinda, because their daughter is fussy about wanting to be with her mother.

Bryan was surprised to see the puffy eyes of Adinda and guessed that his wife must have told Max all his plans. Max's eyes showed that he was so angry. Max held himself back because his little nieces were there.

Max took the time to joke with the twins ale and alu. before finally Adinda said goodbye because her children were sleepy and asked to be read a fairy tale.

"We need to talk! " max said coldly as Bryan was about to catch up with his wife.

Bryan nodded.

" I've heard it all from Dinda,"

" I'm sorry! "

Max slams the file onto the floor making the sheets in it scatter.

" I don't need your apologies, it doesn't matter if you hand over the company back, but I can't accept you hurting my sister's feelings,"

" I'm just trying to be honest, "

" Bre ng sek! " Max pulls Bryan's collar.

" You think I don't know what your brain is, you want to prove what and who to bring up the past! "

Bryan grabbed Max's arm, was about to break away but Max's hand was so strong, Bryan was almost out of breath. Max still has a speck of common sense he releases Bryan and pushes him to the ground.

uhuk.

Bryan coughed - coughing.

Weepy!

Max spit.

" What truth, the fact that you're already a thorn in Adinda, you're also the one who made the decision to take responsibility, right? "

" At the urging of the journalist he threatened my family,"

" Journalist is not wrong because as a father he should have done that, if Reporters do not threaten you, you think you can just hands off, Adinda contains the seeds of you bre ng sek.! " Maki Max is full of emotion

Bryan's cornered.

And without realizing it, a fist had already floated into his heart

Bugh..

Bryan who had just stood up fell back on the display objects behind him to scatter and cause a commotion.

" Max! Bryan! what are you doing!" pekik mommy who came with papi, overtaking Orion and Gladys.

Orion and the papi arrest Max who is about to beat Bryan again. If left Bryan will be battered made.

" Patience Max, control yourself! " Orion mediates.

Max pointed at Bryan's face "Go ahead of me if you mean to go back in Alina's life, I won't let that happen! " max said full of intimidation.

Bryan passed from there. He was free to defend himself, because no one would understand.

"Wait on! " say Max again.

Bryan stopped but did not turn around.

" Not only Alina, I'm not going to let you hurt Adinda, she's my sister, you know, if you used to threaten you, now I'm going to do more than that, you're going to be blown to pieces, keep that! "

Bryan clenched his hands together, he just left without looking back.

"What's up, son, why are you guys like this" asked Mommy worriedly.

" Orion, take over the Hartawan company, I leave it all to you, " Max said ignoring Widyawati's question.

"Hey, you forgot I'm not interested in construction, "

" Gladys can help you, just for some time, until all my problems are over, Adrian's been too busy, just you're relaxing "Max's circus to his brother. He sipped a glass of water that mommy gave him.

Orion sneered at Max's innuendo.

" What's the matter, Max, why did you beat Bryan up like that, you almost made him, "asked Hardi curiously.

Max told me everything from the beginning. And understand why Max could be so angry.

" What are you going to do now? " ask Hardi again

" I don't know pi yet, which is clear I'm going to ask my people to keep an eye on Bryan, I'm going to see how far he's going, if he's anything, I'm not going to let him go,"

" Why don't you just marry Alina, Bryan still gets wind because your relationship is so-so with no certainty, "Timpal Orion gave an idea.

" What Orion said is true, how about we schedule a meeting with Alina's family, " Widyawati said enthusiastically.

Max is silent, all the ideas he has done, before even knowing that Bryan is still expecting his girl. Alina is still adamant with her stance, but Max also does not want to be frank with his family. He did not want others to know about Alina's circumstances and take advantage of the situation.

" Gladys, tomorrow prepare for the office, we will hold an open meeting, as well as the announcement of Orion as CEO, accompanied by him to take care of several projects that have been running, he said, for the new project I'll find a person in charge, I'll contact some of my colleagues"

Gladys is unlikely to refuse because Max's request is more like an order. She's bored at home anyway because Moza's in school.

" Hey we're not talking about the company, we're talking about getting married, anyway even if I'm the CEO, Gladys alone, I have to take care of my own business" Orion refused

" Just choose, so the CEO or workshop I close, you will not get loyal investors like me if there is I will scuttle him" said Max again making Orion unable to wiggle

Max is in control of all points, much less can he do other than surrender. After all, he was not serious about making Gladys as CEO, he did not want his wife to be preoccupied by work and ignored himself and their children.

" Why not just return it to the journalist, the bangkot was his job just back and forth to gamble! " said Hardi in an annoyed tone.

" I don't want Golden Jaya destroyed pi, grandfather's struggle to build Jaya Group is not easy, "

Hardi is grateful to have a son like Max, only Max can be relied upon in leading the Mulia Jaya Group and also Golden Jaya. Max never complained. In his heart he was sad because he did not give Max the opportunity to realize his own ideals.

A message came in Max's phone. From Tiara, the woman did not give up even though Max had already rejected her repeatedly

" Max, help me!Juan comes back and wants to bring Reika"
