BUCIN STARLA'S HUSBAND
JUST STEPCHILDREN?
"Would you like to walk, honey?"
There was a voice coming from Starla's cell phone. Devandra talked to him. The man did not accompany his wife to Bandung because he had to attend a tender auction meeting which today will be announced the winner.
Devandra was a little disappointed because this meeting was made too impromptu, wanting to leave it to Juna and Ami, but could not. Devandra must be attending. And again, this is a tender that Devandra is desperate to get.
"Yes. Juna just sent a message he said it was near the house" replied Starla.
"Tomorrow I'll follow. Maybe morning. I don't feel good."
"No need! I went straight back to Jakarta in the afternoon, "sahut Starla.
"What time is it, Yang?" Starla came down the stairs, carrying her suitcase with her.
"Jam two later. You be careful in Bandung, by," Devandra's message.
"Yes. Oh yes, later tonight to Mami's house only if you are home alone," Starla proposed.
"Yes, by. I'm so sorry I broke my promise. I really can't be represented by anyone" said Devan who now feels guilty to his beautiful wife.
After closing the call from Devan, Starla immediately waited on the front porch of the house. He also made sure to leave the house in a safe state.
Not waiting for long, Juna's car entered the courtyard of the mansion. Juna got off and immediately put the suitcase into the trunk of the car.
"Juna, stop by Minimarket later. I'm gonna get some cash," Starla's pinta.
"Ready."
***
Juna drove the car with above average speed. Since exiting the courtyard of the house, a black SUV car followed them. Starla was so frightened that sweat drenched her face.
Since getting out of the house and had stopped at the minimarket, Juna felt the car was following their car.
And Juna found out who the owner of the car was.
"THE FUCKING GEOVANO IS DEAD!!" yelled Juna annoyed, as no one answered her call.
"Juna, don't speed! I'm scared" Starla cried.
Juna did not heed the request of his superior wife. Juna was sure, those people already knew Devan's marriage. They returned after four years.
"Starla, you know who they are? They're Darto's henchmen. I still remember the license plate of that car. All about Darto, Aska, and the events of four years ago, I still remember everything" said Juna.
Juna's breathing was irregular, but Juna still had to explain to Starla. "If I don't die in Darto's hands, it means I die at Devan's hands for making you wretched!"
"Darto who?" Starla swallows the nervous salivary.
"Later you will know. I can't explain right now."
Juna is still trying to contact the office people. Until he finally remembered his two best friends, Ezekiel and Darren. The call was connected to both of them, seconds later, Ezekiel answered first.
"Hall-in"
"GUE WAS CHASED BY DARTO AND HIS MEN AFTER A LONG TIME! I'M TAKING STARLA TO BANDUNG! SEND HELP, WE'RE STILL IN TOWN!"
"EL, IF YOU'RE IN THE MEETING ROOM AGAIN, SAY IT'S THE SAME DEVAN. STARLA'S IN DANGER!"
The SUV car that was behind, is now aligned with Devan's car. Juna slammed the steering wheel to the right of the car, and the SUV hit the left side of Devan's car.
"LA, HOLD!" juna's orders. There was nothing Starla had to do but follow Juna's orders.
Up to the intersection of three almost close to the toll, the black SUV car let the car that Juna and Starla ride ahead of them and unfortunately all that is there.
A large truck hit the left side of the car, resulting in the car being dragged away. The car glass broke. Starla and Juna are unconscious.

Toro Group's major project fell to Andrean Corp. Devandra as the company leader felt all this was meaningless when news of the accident Juna and Starla delivered by the Casablanca hospital. Not to mention before, Ezekiel told that Darto was chasing Devan's car used by Juna.
The beats of pantofel shoes sounded very compact entering the hospital lobby. The four men were in the spotlight of the people there.
"On behalf of Francisco Juna" Darren told the receptionist.
"gd Room. You go straight, then turn right."
They immediately went to the IGD and sure enough, there was Juna lying unconscious in a gurney.
But, Starla?
"Suster, a patient on behalf of Starla Meisya who was down here with Juna in which room?" ask Devandra, panic.
Nurses in charge of the ER were confused. There were no patients other than Juna.
"Sorry, Sir. When I came here, Mr. Juna was alone. There were no other casualties at the scene of the TKP" the nurse explained.
"No way! This man was with my wife in the car" said Devandra, who began to get emotional.
"The victims found their own people there. I was with the Ambulance when I picked up." The nurse looked very scared when she told Devandra.
"Dev, relax! Darto can't do Starla shit" Darren said.
"Gue kill them all!" press Devandra, then exit IGD.
No one can stop Devandra from slaughtering this man. If Starla gets hurt, then Darto will die in his own hands.

"Hello, the beauty of Devandra Brawijaya."
Starla blinked her eyes repeatedly. Two hours of unconsciousness made him moan in pain from his handcuffed hands.
"It's very clever of that son of a bitch looking for a wife" chirped one of the men.
"You who? Why are my hands cuffed?" Starla looked at the people there one by one.
"My legs are sick," Starla fights.
"Oh yeah, we haven't met. But you better not know what my name is, Starla."
"Devan? Where's my husband? Tell him my leg hurts a lot" said Starla, who began to cry.
"What are you asking your husband for? He won't pick you up, because you're troubling him, Starla."
Starla silence. He spread his gaze throughout this white room. The room was closed with no windows, only one door. Starla was sure this wasn't a hospital, and these were the people Juna was talking about before the accident.
"I'm hungry" Starla said.
"There is no food for you!"
"Theft is not elite. No food time? Who's your boss? Want me to scatter his face with my husband's money," said Starla, very arrogant.
"How dare your mouth be?" jolt guy with long hair.
"I'm not afraid of you! Take off these handcuffs, how dare you be a chick!"
"Starla Meisha…"
They all cast a glance at the source of the sound. At a speaker just above the gurney where Starla was laid.
"Who else is this sissy voice?" ask Starla.
Then the laughter roared throughout the room. Starla believes the owner of the voice is their poor boss.
“Starla, how many years have you married Devandra? Do you know what her family background is?”
“I'm sure, you don't know who Devandra really is.”
Starla stunned. Three weeks already he and Devandra married, all about Devandra and her family clearly he knew.
“Devandra was the brain behind my best friend's death. Your husband and his three best friends, and their community are murderers even if it is not their hands that go down,”.
“LIED! DEVAN IS NOT LIKE THAT! IF SO, YOU MUST BE LOOKING FOR TROUBLE. YES RIGHT?” starla said in flames. Not accept her husband being defamed.
“Hahahaha .. Your brain has even been washed by him, Starla! Now, his life is so happy. He has a high position, and a beautiful wife. I thought he would die with the three pricks I gave him.”
“And I just remembered, Devandra is the son of a doctor.”
“Ehm, I mean, connect child.”
Starla glared, her face looking pale. The son continued, who did that man mean.
“What do you mean? Who do you call a connected child?” ask Starla.
“Oh, you don't know yet? Too bad for you, maybe even Devandra did not know that she was just a child continued Papinya.”
The man's words left Starla stunned. Devandra is not Papi's son. But Starla couldn't believe it, seeing how Adryan loved her firstborn.
DORR …
DORR …

Helsa got up from the sofa when she saw Devandra entering the main door. His face looks emotional. Devandra walked up the stairs, towards her room.
“Devan!!!” call Helsa, whom his son does not support. Helsa immediately approached her to her room.
There Devandra is seen opening a large closet and looks a safe in it. He pressed the password of the safe, and opened it just like that.
“Devan, what do you want that gun! Save that thing,” hardik Helsa.
Devan did not heed Mami's shout, he still took out two revolvers of his. The last revolver was used four years ago. He tucked the two guns in the back of his office suit.
“Devan,” call Helsa once again.
“Mami, do not even leave the house without Papi, or open the door if the guest does not know Mami. Starla is in danger, Mi,” Devandra explained.
“What do you mean? Where's Starla?”
“Starla retrieved Darto.”
Helsa was surprised to hear the name. How dare the man again tease Devandra.
“Devan Dengerin Mommy. Don't be rash, don't be alone to Darto.”
Devandra leaves with her Mama's blessing, taking Starla home in fine form. Devandra also asks not to tell Adryan about this. But Devandra is not sure Helsa can keep a secret.
A large building far from the community settlement. Devandra and Darren and Ezekiel are already there.
“Lo sure Starla is here?” darren asked and was only replied to a nod by the man.
“There's a guard up ahead. You see that bald one, El. Do you remember him hitting Dania in the head?”
Yep. Ezekiel still remembers clearly.
Devandra took off her suit, leaving a red shirt and vest and a tie. He also rolled the shirt up to the elbow. One revolver he kept behind a vest and the other he gave to Darren.
They immediately set up a strategy and were ready to enter the building.
The building was surrounded by a wall that was not very high. Their body posture is very fitting to just climb.
Ezekiel jumped in, followed by Darren and Devandra.
Bugg…
Bugg…
Darren hit the heads of the two men with a revolver Devandra gave him. Then they went in there.
Laughter boomed from the room at the end. Then there were the voices of men followed by the screams of a woman .
Devandra knows Starla's voice.
DORR…
DORR…
Darren glared anxiously as soon as Devandra gave two shots at the knob lock without missing a single bit.
“DEVAN!”
The sound of Starla screaming along with the legs running towards the door sounded earthy. Ezekiel kicked the door open.
There are four big men in there. If Devandra had heard Starla yelling her name, it would be different now. The woman's mouth was tied with a white cloth.
No waiting long for the brawl to happen in there. Among the three of them, no one knew any of the four men. They're Darto's men.
Devandra hit the long-haired man repeatedly with her gun. Then, with an unstoppable rage, he pushed the man against the wall, then choked the man's neck.
“WHERE'S DARTO?”
“DARTO DOESN'T EXIST!” the man's screams followed by a laugh on his forehead.
At the end, Ezekiel is seen hitting the face of another man. In a kneeling position, Ezekiel's fist repeatedly hit his victim. Then not with his feelings did he step on the man's chest.
“DEVAN!!” darren yelled out the handcuff key he just found.
Two other men were on the floor. Devandra hit the man again, then threw him on the floor when his condition was weak.
Devandra immediately approaches Starla, retrieves the handcuff keys from Darren, and quickly releases his wife's hand from the goddamn iron trap.
“My feet are sick, Dev. Can't be dergerakin,” Starla shootout on Devandra.
While in different places, two men monitor the situation there through a large screen.
It's all done. Devandra held Starla from the gurney, then walked out of the room. Before actually leaving from there, Darren stomped on the neck of one of the men who had regained consciousness.
“Dead lo!” screech Darren, then spit on the man's face.
