Exchanging Bride
Staycation - Exit!



Aldi did not expect Kiara to be this sad. Aldi was also surprised by Kiara's anger towards him. Aldi tried to focus on Kiara who put her fierce face on him but still cried. Tears did not stop flowing into Kiara's cheeks that were getting pale. Kiara seemed to have cried for quite a while. Aldi's heart was so sick as if it was sliced. This makes Aldi not notice that Kiara is holding Aldi's phone.


"Ra, I thought you'd still be sleeping on Sampek tomorrow morning. So I took a shower before you went to sleep. Have you had a nightmare with Ra?" Aldi was so devastated and failed because he was negligent that he made Kiara cry like this. But Aldi tried to keep in touch with Kiara. Aldi should know the cause of Kiara's cry this time.


Kiara who heard the sentence after sentence from Aldi's lips did not care how soft Aldi said it. Kiara instead wanted to shout and wear this man.


"Far away! Don't come near me again. Who needs you to be with!" Kiara uttered with her voice that was still hoarse. But Kiara tried to make her sentence sound clear.


Aldi was silent for a moment. Aldi thought about Kiara's desire. Aldi could have stayed away. But does leaving Kiara in this sad state reduce her grief? Or does it even make Kiara feel ignored and unnoticed?


Women sometimes want her lover to be with her, but what is said from her mouth is even the sentence of expulsion as Kiara is doing at this time.


*okay, Ra. I'll let you calm down in the room by yourself. I'll stay away." Aldi said it but instead walked slowly closer to Kiara. As a result Kiara even returned to yell at Aldi.


"So far as what! You're even walking closer here!" Kiara is angry. The tears that had been flowing had stopped because of the anger that created a feeling of heat in his chest.


"Yes. I need to get the bathrobe in the closet next to you, Ra. I'd be cold to get out of the room wearing a towel like this." Aldi lowered his head towards the towel wrapped around his lower body.


Kiara followed Aldi's point of view and realized that Aldi was bare-chested. Kiara stopped staring at the chest of Aldi's field. Kiara's gaze also traced Aldi's abdominal muscles twitching as he walked closer towards her. But Kiara was even more hurt to see it.


...'I know you've been avoiding sleeping with your wife.'...


Kiara remembered the painful message she read. Debaran that he always felt every time he saw Aldi's body could no longer feel Kiara. He felt so scared seeing all of that.


"Stay away from me Aldi!" Kiara tried her hardest to scream. With this tight condition, Kiara no longer had the strength to talk. But the more Aldi approached him with conditions like this made his heart more painful.


Aldi was surprised to see Kiara who looked so tormented. Aldi turned around and walked away. He better not get close to Kiara first. Aldi also looked at the nightstand where his phone left but Aldi was silent because his phone was not there.


Aldi turned around and saw Kiara clutching her phone tightly. Kiara's knuckles had even turned white because she tightly grasped her phone.


... 'What are the advantages of your beautiful wife than I can make a career and get any man I want. Not only single men, even married men are subject to me. I'm sure you were fascinated by me but held him in front of your secretary.'...


Kiara closed her eyes and seemed to hear Verlita scolding her.


... You still have my picture on your social media account. My picture and your poem to me you still capture and you show it to the world....


Kiara came back crying as her eyes closed repeating this sentence in her mind.


Aldi who was still staring at Kiara remained in place and could not move. Aldi believes he made a big mistake that hurt Kiara. Butwhat?


Aldi saw Kiara's hand to Aldi's cell phone. Then Aldi looked at Kiara's face which still showed a tear. Something is not right with the contents of Aldi's phone. What's not right?


Aldi remembered with his anger before taking a bath. Message from Verlita. Aldi was so angry reading Verlita's message. If Kiara read it, of course her heart would be broken. 'Stupid! how could I have forgotten to delete those messages! You fool Aldi!'


While wearing himself, Aldi turned to the bathroom and put on the clothes he was wearing before bathing. But only his shirt and pants. His work coat he's not wearing.


"Ra, I'm sorry. Please don't believe what's in the messages on my phone. That's not true, Kiara. Please stop crying."


Kiara who had been closing her eyes while crying was now staring at Aldi. It felt like Kiara was asking a lot of things and cursing at the man before her. But Kiara did not have the energy to do so.


With a look of anger, Kiara just threw Aldi's phone which was originally in his hand. The phone landed well on the hotel's soft bed.


Kiara didn't say anything but didn't cry back. Kiara stared at Aldi and also at his phone alternately.


Aldi understands what Kiara means. Aldi picked up his cell phone. Once the lock on the phone screen opens, Verlita's latest and longest message appears. Aldi reads each message from the bottom up then from top to bottom. Aldi was again angry. This time his anger was greater than before. But Aldi looked at Kiara who was still paying attention to Aldi's expression.


"Ciara. Dear. You won't just believe this message. Please listen to my explanation first, Kiara." Aldi tried to get closer but Kiara's facial expression was so quick.


"Get out." Kiara's tone this time was so cold.


"OKAY. I'm going out. But you have to promise not to cry anymore."


Kiara just stared at Aldi.


"I'm out grabbing a steak you like huh. I'll heat up for us to dinner. Or I'll have dinner at the hotel, Ra. You eat first. You also need energy to scold me. I promise you will be willing to be angry, you snapped or you hit. Eat first, baby. Fill up your energy to vent your anger with me." Aldi hurriedly came out before hearing Kiara's refusal.


Aldi held his phone tightly. Anger re-established his heart. 'VERLE!'
