Father To Baron

CHAPTER 44

"The return of my late husband, still eyeing us to this day. Not only was he obsessed with me, he also wanted to get rid of the Baron from this world."

Both Mona and Edward were shocked to hear the statement from the graceful woman. Especially Gibran, who was somehow able to feel fear about the safety of both.

"His name is Banu Ekawira, the only brother of Mas Bayu," he admitted, which made Edward clenched his hands until his veins were printed clearly. He knew very well, who was the one who made this mess.

"Before, did he ever do anything to you?" mona asked to make sure. Seeing the head nod of her staff, Mona became even more curious about it.

"He used to mix high-dose medicine in Baron's drink, and luckily I understand that" he said, leading the three to turn around in disbelief. "And also, he almost harassed me exactly one year after Mas Bayu died."

Really, the three are not out of thought by the circumstances experienced by Arita. At first Mona thinks that Banu may be well-intentioned to take care of Arita and Baron, thus making her keep looking for her brother-in-law and niece.

However, he was surprised by the bad actions that Banu had done against Arita and his son. Her hands clasped her fingers, trying to tell her reaction.

"Why didn't you report to the police?" accusation Gibran.

"I didn't have any solid evidence at the time. And again, surely no one will stand up for me and my son" she replied, leading Mona to look compassionately at the woman. Likewise with the two men, somehow also felt furious.

"At least you need to report it to the police, just so he gets caught and doesn't hang around. Remember your son, do you want him to be wretched for what he did?"

Finding the fiery Gibran, Arita looked at the handsome face with tightly gritted lips. His gaze was fixed toward the darkening netra, as well as the man's jaw that seemed to harden.

"You don't have to worry anymore, Ar. Let me and Edward help you with this. Here is Gibran, who can look after you and the Baron for some time to come."

Hearing that, Gibran nodded his head in agreement. The gentle rubbing that Mona gave her arm, made Arita feel lucky because it was met by women as good as Monalisa. Likewise with Edward, who turned out to be humble like his wife.

"Thank you very much, Mom. But somehow, I felt unworthy to get the good of my mother and family," he said unkindly.

"Calm down Arita, you deserve this. Since it turns out, you are the one you have been looking for since 3 years ago," Mona decides to tell you about her secret and her husband.

"I mean mother? Three years ago?" ask Arita streak.

...*****...

FLASHBACK 3 YEARS AGO

"Honey be careful, this road is very slippery," said a man with a sturdy posture like a Spanish boule. The hand adorned by the wedding ring, tightly grasped his wife's fingers because she felt very worried.

If not for the coercion of his beloved wife, perhaps Edward would not have allowed Mona to walk around the city park. For some reason, his wife who was pregnant for 5 months, immediately wanted to stop at this place.

"Don't we never know where the danger comes from. If I'm not the one reminding you, then who should be on the lookout?" he demanded it by stroking his wife's enlarged stomach.

"Calm down, you brought that bodyguard, Ed."

"That doesn't guarantee completely," prune the man so that Mona purses her lips flat. The 27-year-old woman stared enthusiastically across the street where her ice cream vendor opened a stall.

"Take me there, Ed," asked the woman a little forcefully. Even though he had offered to stay there, Mona still did not want to. Although both of her bodyguards had been ordered by Edward to buy, Mona still kekeuh want to approach the stand.

What power Edward, Mona reasoned if he craved.

"Yes, take my hand and watch my instructions." After that, the two intend to cross the city streets that look a little more crowded than usual day. Accompanied by his two bodyguards, Edward and Mona begin to step up.

But unfortunately, the bad luck of someone indeed no one can predict. Although both have brought bodyguards, it does not guarantee the misfortune that has been destined for both.

A black car appears to be traveling at high speed. With the position of Mona who had walked first so excited, making Edward could not reach just his hands. Until, a horn sounded loud accompanied the screams of some people around.

"Lord, help us!" pinta Edward was in a state of panic. The man could not bear to see his wife got something bad, in front of his own eyes.

However, it seems that God is still kind to both of them. Suddenly a stranger pushes Mona's body to the edge of the road, thus saving the woman from a very obvious collision could endanger her life.

"Save my wife!" edward shouted at his bodyguard.

Not stopping there the panic of Edward, the man actually watched with his own eyes, someone who managed to save the wife was dying. Without waiting for a long time, Edward immediately approached and processed it as quickly as possible.

His heart was racing, when he saw someone sent by God who became his savior, now began to close his eyes slowly. His eyes clearly saw a name, which was imprinted on the man's shirt.

Bayu Ekawira, that name will be remembered.

"Ed, my stomach hurts so much .." - Mona whispered so that she made her husband rush over. After making sure his rescue figure was in good hands, Edward decided to take Mona to the hospital.

Surely the two ambulances came together, shortly after the accident occurred. Edward along with his wife, while one of his bodyguards accompanied Bayu to the hospital for the best treatment.

"I'll take responsibility for the man's family, I owe him."
