Being a Night Butterfly

TMKM-18

"God, should I follow the man's advice?" Melinda worried for herself after making a voice call. Theo asked himself to install CCTV at home so that it could be evidence if he got violence. However, Melinda was still worried about it. If until she is found out, what she has will actually be the months of her mother-in-law and her husband. It could be that the violence they are doing is going to be. 

"I'd better have a discussion tomorrow with him." Melinda also chose to put her phone and hugged Atha very tightly. He tried to close his eyes to face a day that might still taste bitter to him.

After making a call with Melinda, Theo asked his men to drive him to the place where Fatih used to gamble. He had to teach the man a lesson because he had dared to hurt Melinda. Although Melinda is still valid as Fatih's wife, but Theo is not willing. 

"Where is he?" ask Theo when he gets there. 

"Not yet to come, sir. Looks like we have to meet the owner of this gambling place first" said Theo's men. 

The man agreed and immediately rushed to the owner of the gambling place. Theo's arrival was warmly welcomed especially after he introduced himself. A lot of things were told by the owners of the gambling establishment about Fatih who always lost, but never gave up. 

"So, he used his wife's hard work to gamble. I didn't think there was such a mean man." Theo shook his head then got up and immediately came to the gambling table when someone complained that Fatih was also there. 

Theo's arrival suddenly astonished Fatih as well as anyone who was there. They feel alien to Theo, but seeing how Theo looks, they are convinced that Theo is not a man from ordinary people like Fatih. 

"Well, there are new players" Fatih said with a wry smile. He doesn't know who Theo really is. 

"Why?" Theo relaxed back. Not feeling intimidated at all. 

"No papa." 

I think I can win tonight. Fatih. Feel very confident. 

Without waiting for long, they immediately played. The atmosphere suddenly tense and unceasing Fatih let out a cold sweat. Theo still looks relaxed. Enjoy the view in front of him. 

"You're sure this four million will be a bet?" ask Theo to make sure again. Fatih nodded quickly. Theo put a check with the words five million and put it on the table. 

"How did you put up your money?" Fatih slightly got up to look at the nominal listed there. Five million. It is also good if you win. 

"Five million. We better continue." Theo was still sitting quietly and looked serious again. The atmosphere was even more tense when the game was almost over. 

"I won!" fatih shouted while putting the last card. He pranced with excitement while the visitors who were there were so astonished. Though they suspect that will win is Theo, but it turns out they are wrong. 

Theo has lost. In fact, the owner of the gambling place was surprised. 

"Look at you! I won! Haha." Fatih got up to the table and pointed at everyone who was there. No one cheered, they actually considered Fatih like a village man and their gazes looked so twisted. 

"Congratulations, Sir. You're really amazing." Theo clapped his hands. Then, he got up and reached out to greet Fatih. However, his hand was immediately pushed aside by the man. 

"What's shaking hands with me!" Fatih refused so haughtily. Instead of feeling afraid or hurt, Theo smiled cynically at Fatih's arrogant behavior. 

Highlight Fatih's eyes looked sparkling happily. "Of course I want to. I'll be here earlier than usual." 

"OKAY. Then I'll say good." Theo tidied up the suit and walked away from the place in a dashing style. Looking at Theo's appearance and aura, they still did not expect that Theo would lose to Fatih. 

"Sir, did you accidentally lose to that damn guy?" ask Theo's men when they get in the car. 

"This is the beginning of the game for him. So, just enjoy." 

Theo's men nodded in understanding and drove the car to die at the gambling place. Many plans he put together to make Fatih bend the knee and beg for mercy on Melinda. Theo really can't wait for that time to come.

"Mom, Mom!" fatih shouted as he just got home. His thunderous voice shocked the residents of the house. They hurriedly approached Fatih out of concern that something had happened to the man. 

"Why?" the Goddess was impatient. While Melinda just stood in the doorway without daring to approach. More precisely lazy if you have to approach the man. Moreover, there is her mother-in-law there. 

"I won, Mom. Looky. My money is five million," Fatih said without fading her smile. 

The goddess congratulated and hugged her son. Come along happy because Fatih managed to win in that gambling. Once satisfied, Fatih approached Melinda and showed her his own checks and cash. 

"Look! I won!" Fatih pointed at the check so arrogantly. Melinda did not open her voice and chose to enter the room. "Stupid! Don't you want to congratulate your husband?" Fatih began to growl because she felt that Melinda was very annoying. 

"For what? You only win once. No need for congratulations. Just wasting time." Melinda answered without the slightest fear. A split second later he grimaced when Fatih had grabbed Melinda's hair very tight. "Please, sick!" 

"You really are a brash wife, yes! Husband gets money instead of being happy even like this. You want a share? Da? Tell me how many millions." Fatih is very arrogant and it makes Melinda feel sick of the man. 

"I don't need your money, Mom!" reject Melinda raw. 

"Are you sure of that? Don't be shy if you want to." Fatih let go of her trap. 

"No. I can still find it myself. Anyway, you look so happy like that. Aren't you afraid of being lied to?" Melinda pulled next to the corner of her lips as she saw Fatih's smile fade away slowly. 

"What do you mean?" ask Fatih confused. 

"You just got a cashless check and you're feeling that happy, Mom? What if that person lies to you? What if this check turns out to be fake?" Melinda began to be happy to see Fatih who looked like a confused person.

"Let. I have nothing to lose because my money is intact" Fatih said. 

 "Even if you have nothing to lose, but you have been lied to and people will think you are very stupid because it is easy to be lied to, Mas." Melinda warms Fatih's heart. 

"Suck!"
