Although Kardi hides this problem from Manda, Manda is very sensitive. He knows what is hidden from him. Manda walked out on the workers still sharp.
" safa... There's something I want to talk about" Manda said
Surti who was standing next to Safa was shocked he looked at Manda with a worried look. Eko walked up to Surti and surprised him by patting Surti on the shoulder.
" Ngagetin only" said Surti while replying to Eko's punch on his shoulder.
" Look.... I feel sorry for Manda, but all this is just a disaster. All this because of the fox Bella" Surti said again
" Be calm, Mbak Manda is a strong person, everything will be passed easily. And again there are also those who do not believe in Bella" said Eko
Arriving at the room, Manda took out a passbook and some jewelry. He handed it all over to Safa. Safa looked at Manda with a bangtung.
" I already know everything, now the most important thing is the continuity of the plantation and the families of the workers" said Manda
"But brother.... It's Manda's savings to give birth and raise her older sister's child" Safa said, giving back the box
Manda smiled, and gave the box back. She had seen enough of Kardi and Safa suffering from back and forth looking for a loan. Later if it is time Manda believes that the little one will also bring his own fortune.
Safa sat quietly in front of Manda, her eyes twinkling. Safa now knows that maybe Manda already knows what the workers are talking about. But the family couldn't stop their mouths from talking. Several times Safa apologized, Manda hugged Safa warmly. Manda looked so dear to Safa, so did Safa.
Outside, Bella continues to influence the workers. Crimes Manda and makes them hate Manda even more. Feri and Eko are walking, he sees Bella talking to two men from the outside, looking like thugs. They stopped to listen to what Bella was talking to the two men, but they could not hear anything and the two men left the estate. Bella turned around, she saw Feri and Eko were watching her, Bella was a little scared but she instead approached and snapped at Feri and Eko.
Despite the suspicions, Feri and Eko could not figure out who and what the two men were doing, which was obviously very suspicious.
Bella comes in, she starts doing her job. He fiddled with computers to promote the plantation and lodging to come back as crowded as ever. At least that's what others know. As for the truth, Bella created a fake account to aggravate the plantation and lodging so that no one would come there. He plans to bankrupt the plantation and blames it all on Manda.
The days passed, the harvest was pretty good. Eko and Kardi brought some to town for sale. Although getting a lot of results but still can not cover the expenses for the workers and the needs of the plantation and lodging.
On the way home, Eko told Kardi that the workers complained that their salaries had not been paid, even though their food needs had been prepared by the Plantation but there were still many families of workers.
Kardi was just listening, she was actually what her workers were going through. But what can be done, right now is all he can do.
" Who's Ko.." asked Kardi.
For a moment Eko was silent, she was not so brave either. What's more it's not her right to tell her all. But she feels severe enough and may also be mentally depressed Manda, what else Manda is pregnant. Of course it is not good for the fetus it contains.
Despite doubts that Eko finally told the man that he was Bella, Bella had been constantly fidgeting with the workers.
At home, Kardi meets Manda who is reading a book in a park.
" Dad.... What's up?" asked Manda who was surprised to see Kardi coming.
" What are you doing ? I came to bring you food." Kardi said as she sat next to Manda.
"Dad, thank you" said Manda, taking the package that his father-in-law brought.
Manda smiled looking at the contents of the box, she was also moved. Although she was not very close to her father-in-law, Kardi knew what Manda liked. Only a cake made of rice containing brown sugar is lined on the road. Back when Rizki was there they always bought it.
Kardi was happy to see Manda liked what she brought. Seeing Manda eat the cake with great pleasure, Kardi's tears trickled down.
" Dad...What happened ?" manda
" I'm sorry dad couldn't protect you from those people's talk" Kardi said.
Manda smiled, even though she was very hurt. As if unable to accept their words but Manda realized, indeed all this is his fault. He caused all of this to happen so he airily accepted whatever they said about him.
Kardi promised to solve this problem soon, besides the plantation results are quite good. Besides vegetables they can also send flowers and crafts made by children there. Kardi believes with a little more effort they will soon overcome their financial problems.
" You don't think about anything, trust me.... I'll definitely finish it soon" Kardi said as she left Manda.
Manda smiled, but she also felt worried even though she said she was fine but she wasn't. Almost every night he could not sleep thinking about the problem.
