Bondage of Love

Investigatory

"stuck? what do you mean."

"Please! you have to help me!"

"Silent. Calm yourself. Let's go to my workroom."

The two of them head to the study room at Xander's house for more privacy.

"Sit down." Xander ordered. He's sipping a glass of water for Harvey. "Drink."

Harvey gulped down the water in front of him slowly.

"It's quieter?"

Harvey nodded - nod.

"Speak."

With a deep breath Harvey began to tell stories. "From last night I had a big fight with my wife over a child. You know that about that, we ended up in a fight. That night I was really frustrated and decided to calm my mind at a nightclub."

"You drunk?"

"Well, I'm drunk." Harvey replied with a sorry face. "I was so unconscious and knew - I woke up in a hotel near the club with a foreign woman beside me." Harvey sighed for a moment. "We both don't wear clothes at all."

"You're crazy Harvey!"

"I've given him money, but it turns out he's more cunning than I thought."

"You mean?"

"She sent us a picture where we were both without a thread."

"He threatened you with that photo."

"True, he'll send that photo to Zeline." Harvey rattled his hair. "What do I do, bro?"

Xander was silent for a moment. "Do you feel like you've had a relationship with that woman?"

"That's it, the thing is I don't remember anything."

"Minimum you can feel being in touch with women. Drunken - drunkenness if still in a semi-conscious state you must at least remember."

"I could swear. I don't remember anything."

"If it's like that, it looks like you've been framed. You were in a fainting state, the person who fainted couldn't do anything."

"So__ so__ you believe me."

"I believe. Especially after marrying Zeline you changed a lot. You're becoming a better person. The only problem is that now we have no proof that you did nothing that night. The woman has solid evidence."

"I have to how? only you can help me, Xander."

"Quiet down bro. calm yourself." Xander patted - pat Harvey's shoulder. "Now that you go home, Zeline must be worried about you. You got that woman's phone number?"

"There's."

"Give it to me."

Harvey immediately gives Xander Rani's phone number.

"After lunch we'll go to the club you went to last night."

"All right, I'm coming home."

Xander leads Harvey to the front door. Xander immediately returned to the room, he saw the well-dressed Kamisha preparing to leave for work.

"Harvey's home?"

"It."

"It's obvious that if I see Harvey I feel anxious."

"What about?"

"Fear he'll take Axel away from me at any moment."

"Hey, I knew Harvey wouldn't do that." Xander approached Kamisha and hugged her gently. "Keep in with me."

"Thank you, you've always protected us."

"Hmm." That's the only sound that came out of Xander's mouth. His hands gently caressed his wife's old back - long from where - where.

"Darling, please I'm well-dressed." please Kamisha because she knows what her husband means

"Who told me that the smell of your body aroused my desire" Xander said as he lifted his wife up and placed her on the table.

"Aaacch! Xander we're gonna be late."

"Just a minute, baby."

Momentary what? if this is how it can be for a moment Kamisha said in his heart. She complies with what her husband does because he really likes it too.

"Alex, let me in the room for a second."

"Good sir."

It wasn't long before Alex walked into Xander's study.

"Please track this number." Xander gave me a piece of paper with a cell phone number. "I want information about him today."

"Okay sir, I'll do it immediately."

Xander sat pensively, wondering what kind of person had framed Harvey. This action cannot be forgiven because it will damage the peace of a household, many people will be hurt.

It didn't take long for Alex to get the information.

"How's it?"

"This is a disposable number, sir. So I can't find who this number's real picker is."

"Once-wear? that means he's already professional." murmured Xander. "Alex you'll come with me to a club. Don't ask too many questions, just do what I command!"

"Good sir."

"Harvey's here yet?"

"Not yet."

"Call my wife here."

"Good sir."

Alex immediately went to Kamisha's room. At that time Kamisha was having guests, namely from the financial section.

"Sorry Misha ma'am, we want to confirm this expense issue." a finance staffer named Nita gave Kamisha some spending notes.

"This is a spending note from team two?" ask Kamisha.

"Yes right. Barrels are on team two right?"

"Yes, he's a team with me. But all I know is that our team has never had this much to spend."

"But this is the signature of Baras right?"

"Yes right this is indeed the signature of Laras, but every expenditure must be as far as I know as team leader two."

"I beg you to resolve this matter, before I report to Mr. Xander."

"Well, I'll settle this matter soon."

"Okay, I wait. Then excuse me."

Nita immediately left Kamisha's room. Kamisha was pensive for a moment until Alex arrived.

"Miss Misha, Mr. Xander called."

"Well I'll be there. Thank you Alex."

Kamisha immediately got up from her seat and immediately headed to her husband's room.

"You call me baby?"

"Yes. Come here." Come here." Xander patted his thigh as a gesture for Kamisha to sit there.

Kamisha only according to her husband's orders. "Kangen to me."

"Very."

"Hmmm. Start again."

"Dear, I have an appointment with Harvey."

"Project matter in Jogja?"

"Other problems?" Kamisha frowned.

"I'll tell you later if the problem is clear. Trust me." Xander gave a deep look at Kamisha.

Kamisha softly kissed Xander's forehead. "I believe you."

"Ah, it's hard for me to leave you and have to go with Harvey."

"Hahahah, you're just like Axel. You spoiled bastard." Kamisha stroked her husband's hair gently. "Can't still be tonight dear." her eyes squinted meaningfully.

Arrive - arrive..

"You ready?" Harvey just walked in the room. "Opps.. sory bro I don't know if you're new___." Harvey did not continue his words.

"Hey don't think about it carelessly" said Xander. Kamisha immediately descended from his lap. And fix Xander's shirt that's a little messy. "I'm leaving first." he said as he kissed Kamisha's forehead.

"Heart - heart. good luck." Kamisha did not have any suspicion of her husband because as long as she knew him, Xander was known as a figure who did not like to lie. He must have his own reasons why not tell him. And Kamisha appreciated that.

🌸🌸🌸🌸

After Xander's departure with Harvey. Kamisha plans to call Laras. They meet at a cafe. He will ask the problem of spending so much on his team.

"Misha."

"Hey. over here." Kamisha waved her hand. Rushing Laras approached. "What do you want to drink?" ask Kamisha.

"Juice without sugar."

Kamisha immediately ordered guava juice for Laras and strawberry juice for herself. Shortly the order arrived.

"Tumben Sha invited me to meet here."

"There's actually something I want to ask you."

"What about?"

"You remember last month we had a guest. And there's some costs we're spending."

"Yes I remember. There's souvenirs, a fleet for sightseeing, a ticket to travel."

"Surely there are no other additions?"

"Sure, Sha. I have the notes." said Laras. "All the memorandum evidence I also copy for my own archive."

"All right, until the office I'll ask for all those notes."

"What's the matter, Sha? you're scaring me."

"Tadi Nita from the finance department had clarified that our team's spending was too much. So that between the income we achieve becomes equivalent to our expenses. That means we didn't hit the target. Even the last few months our spending has exceeded the income we have achieved."

"Something's wrong with this."

"I ask you from that. Because all expenses have signatures from you."

"There's no way Sha I'd dare to commit such corruption."

"You calm down and don't panic. I will investigate this matter to the fullest."

"If Mr. Xander finds out about this, I'll be fired. I didn't do it."

"Nita also gave us two days before the financial statements were on my husband's desk" Kamisha said. "I want all your expense files for the last six months. We have to find out who did it."

"Well, I'll give it all up."

"But do you think there's a traitor on our team?"

"That's all I don't know, Sha." replied Laras. "Knowing about this alone makes me dizzy."

"Let's go back to the hotel first. Lunch time is up." take Kamisha. "But remember, this matter is only the two of us know. The less I know, the easier it's for me to investigate."

"okay."

They both decided to return to the hotel.

🌸🌸🌸🌸

"This is the nightclub you went to?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"Alex you know the owner of this club, don't you?"

"Yes sir."

"Call right away, I want to talk to the owner directly."

"Good sir."

Alex immediately made a call and before long there were two people with full bodies tattooed, wearing black t-shirts to them.

"Good day, with Mr Xander?" askthem.

"Yes right."

"Pak Yoga lets you into his room."

Xander, Harvey and Alex followed the man to a room. Because this afternoon the club is still in a state of desolation. There is only a cleaning service officer who cleans the remaining dirt and bottles of drinks.

"Please come in, Mr. Yoga is waiting inside."

"Thank you" said Xander.

This black-dominated room adds to the impression that the owner is a person who likes to lead, respected and likes with tranquility.

"Good day, Mr. Xander, welcome to my club."

"Good afternoon Yoga, nice to meet you."

"Hi Alex, you're getting fat" said Yoga.

"Don't be like that, man, I'm living well like this because there's Mr. Xander."

"Yes, yeah, I believe." Yoga chuckles. "Please sit down."

The four of them sat on a silver sofa. "Can I help you?"

"There" replied Xander. He does not want to talk - stale because he thinks this problem must be resolved immediately. "So this is Pak Yoga, my brother here last night drunk heavily in your club. Until he was unconscious. And know - know he's been deceived by a woman. We just want to find proof that my brother is innocent."

"Hmm. can__ could be."

"We want to see CCTV footage in this club, precisely yesterday at ten o'clock."

"Well, wait a minute." Yoga immediately made a call to one of his men. "Well, Mr. Xander is Yanto. He's in the engineering department and takes care of all the CCTV's in here."

"Good, I'm happy with how you work fast."

The four of them carefully looked at the CCTV footage.

"Wait, stop." cried Harvey. "That's me."

"Well, you're drinking alone."

"If this is more clearly seen from camera three" explained Yanto.

"Show." Yoga orders.

Deftly Yanto showed a picture shot from camera three.

And it is true what Yanto said. There Harvey looks clearer. They continued to look at the footage again to the point where there was a woman whose data approached. In the picture Harvey several times banished the woman but she remained desperate to sit at Harvey's table. Until the woman saw her face.

"Stop!" shout Xander. "Please enlarge."

"Good." Yanto did his job. He immediately enlarged the picture of the woman's face.

"That's the guy?" ask Xander

"Well, that's the guy" Harvey replied

"Sir Yoga, do you know him? who knows if he's one of the staff or waiters here."

"Wait a minute, can you make that picture clear, Yanto? it's like I know him."

Yanto immediately edited the image so that the woman's face was more visible.

"That's Rani, she waiters at my place. He has only been working for three months. Her husband is still in prison, because I feel sorry so I decided to take him to work here."

"Wait a minute, it looks like I've seen it" Xander said. "Alex you remember him, right?"

Alex carefully watched the woman on the screen. "Yes it was Rani who used to commit fraud in our hotel" Alex replied.

Xander smiled happily. "Harvey, I'm sure you'll be free from this trap."
