Meanwhile, in the room, Jenny was curled up in the corner of the room with a body wrapped in a thick blanket. As for Yoga, he sat on the floor with a bruised face propped up against the wall.
The tumultuous action that Mita is doing suddenly stops when she realizes the existence of Merlin and Dicky in the midst of the hotel guests who are huddling. With an angry look, Mita was relieved from her seat.
"You! You are the cause of all this trouble. Aye?" Mita accused Merlin directly.
"What did you just say, old mother? Don't just talk to my wife. Don't just recuse. If I don't want to charge you with defamation."
"I don't just accuse you, young master. This wife of yours is the cause of all the trouble that happened to my son."
"Say! Why would you do that to your sister, huh? He's innocent, Merlin. Why are you setting him up?"
Suddenly, Mita changed her loud tone to meek like someone who was really being oppressed. All that he did so that everyone who saw this incident would think, if what had just happened to Jenny was indeed Merlin.
"I know, our arrival into your family you never received. I married your widowed father out of love. But, am I wrong to be your stepmom?"
"I've always been quiet you treated unfit at home. But this time, I can't keep quiet because you've hurt your brother. He's guilty of guilt, Merlin. The wrong thing is me. I have accepted your papa's proposal and am willing to marry her. Then I brought Jenny to your house. I was wrong because of that. But ... whether .... "
"Enough! Do you have any evidence to accuse my wife of framing your son? And anyway, whether the words you said just now are fact or just your talk."
"It's not good to just talk, but the evidence is not there. You can slander others. Slander is the same as defiling good mana. Then if I report you to the police, you'll be sentenced to prison."
"Dicky. No need to explain anything to my stepmom. He won't understand. He purposely wanted to ruin my good name, because yesterday he knew, the inheritance that my parents had could not be renamed on behalf of his son."
Merlin spoke up after being silent for so long. He purposely said that in front of everyone to solve the drama problem that his stepmom made at this time.
It was incredible. The startled expression Mita showed was completely in line with what Merlin had expected. Mita was completely shocked by Merlin's words just now. The sad face of the oppressed man suddenly turned red with widened eyes in disbelief. Mita turns her eyes from Merlin to Bondan.
"Explain it to me, Mom! Is that true what he said, huh? You can't change Merlin's name to Jenny's tone?"
Being too shocked and very emotional by what she just heard, Mita suddenly forgot the existence of the people who were gathering to pay attention to her. The downtrodden play he played, disappeared instantly.
"Uhhhh! Turns out she really was a mean stepmom. I thought everything he said was a fact. It turned out to be a charade" said one of the mothers in the crowd.
"Yes. I think there are cruel stepchildren. You know .. no."
"Since people have no face. It's a waste of time we're seeing this untrue family show."
"Yes, I almost got angry with that poor girl. He's the one who's bullied, not the oppressor."
He's pecking helpless. Don't know what to say to clear his broken good name.
Dicky smiled a little. What a coincidence for him when choosing this room as a room to make a big show for Jenny. But actually, it was not a coincidence, but rather, he had already planned.
Last night, she knew that this morning there would be mothers from some community of mothers who would stay at this hotel. The community is doing activities together.
I don't know what he's doing, Dicky doesn't know either. What is clear is that the presence of these mothers can be very beneficial for him. And it turns out that it was true. The mothers did indeed add warm to the great atmosphere of the plan he carried out.
The reddened look of embarrassment was clearly visible on Mita's face. While Bondan, he just looked down because he was embarrassed by his wife.
After the officers arrived, everything was dispersed. Jenny and Yoga are taken to the security office with Mita following behind.
Meanwhile, Bondan continued to stare at Merlin with a gaze that was hard for Merlin to guess. Because that look was not as usual. Merlin wanted to mean with an angry look, but not.
"Darling, let's go! We still have business to do." Dicky said as he gently touched Merlin's shoulder.
"Eh, iy-yeah. Come on!"
"Wait!" Bondan suddenly spoke while holding the hand of Merlin who just wanted to step.
"Please let go of my wife's hand right now. You have no right to touch his hands, let alone hold them" Dicky said with a tone of emphasis and a sharp gaze.
"Sorry, young master. It seems like the young master has already forgotten one thing. He's my son. So .... "
"God! The kid? Am I really your son?" tanya Merlin cut her papa speech quickly. To be honest, she didn't want to talk, but her little heart wanted her to come along.
"Merlin's. Keep talking to you. I'm your papa anyhow."
"really? Unfortunately, no father sold his son to anyone else. Also ... no papa can break with his child just for defending the person who clearly came from outside."
"They're not people who come from the outside, Merlin. They are your mother and stepbrother. You should be able to make peace with them. Why do you always do things to them, huh? How long do you have to fight them? The one who brought them was me, your papa. Not those who come alone."
Hearing that remark, Merlin's heart again scratched and felt very painful. He did not expect, even today, his biological father still defended his stepson who had clearly smeared his face with dirt.
"Whatever papa wants to say. I have no business with papa."
"Come, Dicky! We're leaving" said Merlin, not wanting to speak again. Because at this time, his heart was already very, very saturated and bored. Let alone talk, just look at the feeling very lazy.
