Ben arrived at Samuel's study. He was very easy to enter the room because almost every day he took care of the room. All sorts of documents, where to store them, he still memorized. Including secret documents regarding the list of requests for murder that Tiger King has ever done. Indeed, it is an unforgivable document if it falls into public hands. Many will blaspheme Samuel and his business associates.
Ben pressed a button on the corner of the wall. When the button was opened, the document shelf that was there opened, giving him a way into a small room. There are a lot of secret documents there. But, Ben just took the documents. Had he taken them all, Samuel would not have been able to atone for his sins. Including his sin that has taken his own son's youth as a happy child, Bayu Bagaskara.
After retrieving the necessary documents, he returned out of the room.
"Ben.... "
Just out, Ben was surrounded by Samuel and the five men who were ready to point a gun at him.
"Brazed kid!" snapped samuel. He clenched his teeth, restraining the mounting anger.
Ben stood quietly. He was no longer afraid that he would die in Samuel's hands tonight. Whatever happens, tonight everything has to be done.
"You must surrender, sir."
"Restore the documents you have already taken! If I get caught you'll get caught, Ben! You are not aware!"
Samuel was very disappointed. The son of a driver he had raised all this time was finally standing before him as his own enemy.
Instead of handing over the documents he had just retrieved, Ben took the gun out of his pants pocket. He pointed the gun at Samuel fearlessly, but there were five guns pointing at him.
"I'm fully aware, Sir. I am ready to atone for any crime I have ever committed despite having to spend the rest of my life in prison."
"Haha.... You have gone mad. You've never felt the rigors of prison life and dared to say that."
"If you knew, I'm sure you'd rather die."
Brak!
"Sir Ben!"
Prita and Alex came at an inopportune time. Ben's face immediately panicked to see Bayu's wife there. Meanwhile, Samuel smiled with the arrival of his son-in-law. The daughter-in-law he was looking for turned out to come to him alone.
"My daughter, come here. There's something important we need to talk about. Come here!" samuel said in a sweet tone.
Prita confusion. It looks like the situation there is tense, Ben and the men brandishing pistols at each other. Meanwhile, Samuel could still smile welcoming his arrival. Alex is scared. He regretted opening the door of the room without first seeing the situation.
"Miss Prita! Run!" scream Ben.
"Run Quickly!"
Dor's!
Ben accidentally shoots a bullet into Prita's side door, which makes Prita and Alex very surprised. They immediately rushed off.
Ben rolls over the table and shoots back Samuel's bodyguard, who tries to shoot him.
Samuel and his two bodyguards run after Prita, while the other three defend against Ben.
Alex and Prita are still running down the hallway. They did not expect that their arrival there would be the same as getting into danger.
Dor's!
"Aah!"
Alex's leg was shot. He can no longer run.
"Alex!"
Prita came back to Alex. He tries to solve it, but Alex refuses.
"Miss, get out of here! Hurry along!"
Prita's eyes were already teary looking at the fresh blood flowing from Alex's left calf.
"Go!" yell Alex again.
Bruk!
Prita hit someone. Unfortunately, the one he hit was also one of Samuel's men. The man pointed the gun at Prita.
Prita looked increasingly frightened. The man blocks his hand while pointing his gun right at Prita's head.
"Road!" his orders.
The bodyguard again took Prita down the corridor that Prita had previously passed. He meets Alex who is still lying on the floor. There was Samuel and two of his men there were swarming Alex.
"My son-in-law, I actually want to talk to you in a good way, not in this way."
"But, it seems impossible that you would be willing to obey me."
Alex seemed to be in pain with his leg. The boy, for life had never felt such hurt despite being a Bayu's man. He must have suffered a lot. Prita never saw Alex's condition. Alex is like his own brother.
"I was amazed by everyone. I do all of this for the sake of my family. Why is everyone turning against me? What's wrong with me?"
"Alexes.... Try to explain, until long ago you would rather go with Bayu than me who has picked you up from the streets."
Samuel was upset. Both Ben and Alex who he lifted from the pit of poverty, they all betrayed him.
"Akhs! Akhs! Akh..!"'s....!"
Alex screamed in pain as Samuel stomped on the part of the gunshot wound to his calf. Alex cried in his screams. Alex tried to get rid of Samuel's leg, but his efforts were in vain.
"Dad.... Please stop it." Prita's tears flowed profusely seeing Alex being treated that way.
"Oh, is this son-in-law feeling sorry for Alex? He's just a street kid, and if he dies no one will look for him either."
Prita was crying.
"Why can you and Bayu both love this kind of person? It's weird."
"Prita, do you want to help me?"
"Help me grab the documents that Ben has in his hands. That kid is also currently crazy, we need to bring him back."
Samuel lifted his leg off Alex. He walked over to Prita who was still crying and trembling in fear.
"My daughter, you should know. If the documents fall into the hands of the police, Bayu will also go to prison. Do you want your husband in jail?"
"You may not know that your husband is not an ordinary businessman, but there are also prohibited businesses that follow him. Is it okay if he goes to jail?"
Prita. He knows that Bayu was once a bad person. But now he is trying to be a better person. Is she ready if her husband is to take responsibility for his former evil deeds?
"I know you won't have the heart to see your husband in prison. I can clean up everything if you want to obey me."
Prita was like the man Samuel was brainwashing. He listened to what Samuel said.
"Miss Prita, don't listen." on the sidelines of his pain, Alex still tries to warn his nona.
"Come, my son-in-law. Come with me." take Samuel.
Between despair and fear, Prita obeyed Samuel's words. He walked following her. The bodyguard beside him still pointed the gun at his head, to intimidate.
"Miss Prita!"
Alex kept calling even though his nona passed away leaving him with Mr. Samuel. He also held his leg which was still painful especially aggravated by Samuel's previous actions.

Bayu.... Bayu.... Because you are the author there is an enemy. Why are you a bad person, do not accept it. The intention is to make a novel that the story is finally to be a good person all, even because of this story there are readers who become evil as the author. The reader who became the Bayu-Prita team was also demonized, as if others could not have their own imagination. She's amazing. Your responsibility, Bayu! I hate you but I love you! 😪
