GIRL IN RED

CHAPTER 24. WHO HIT YOU?

“Arimbi grew up in the countryside, sometimes he acts without thinking, Mr Emir! So, if he offends you in any way we hope you can be kind enough to forgive him. I'll make him send you a present tomorrow. He will apologize for what he has done to you.”

The Emir looked at Yadid with an ice-cold look before repeating his question.

“I just want to know where Arimbi is! Don't let me ask you three times!” bentak Emir's.

“D-he is on top,” Yadid replied in a vibrating voice.

“Go and tell him to come down now. I want to see it.” said Emir.

Yadid's eyes twinkled before he immediately nodded his head. “Sure. I'll have him come down to see you soon, Mister!”

The man immediately ran up the stairs and headed for Arimbi's room. He knocked on the door of the room loudly while calling her tight.

“Arimbi! Open the door Arimbi! The Emir wants to see you. Hurry along! Don't make him wait!” he said as he continued to push through the door of the room. But there was no word from inside the room, only silence without any sound. The sharpness of yadid's face instantly changed, his hands began to tremble as he slugged at the door again.

“Arimbi! Don't do anything silly anymore! I'm just punishing you for your own good,” he shouted. But still there is no reaction, Arimbi may have offended the Emir but she is still his biological daughter Yadid who he must be well educated.

“Amanda locked her door from outside!” arimbi's cold voice spoke from within.

Yadid stopped banging on the door and looked down, the door was indeed padlocked.

‘Yes God! Am I blind? How can I not see a lock this big on the door?’

Amanda rushed after her father to the second floor while taking out the key to open the lock. “Dad, what do you think Mr Emir will do to him?” ask Amanda.

Yadid was still not fully aware of the thoughts that filled his mind, so he replied in a rather cynical tone.

“Why do you want to know? He can meet Arimbi whenever he wants. Arimbi can apologize to him and promise him that he will stay away from him in the future.” Yadid no longer mentions Arimbi's punishment.

Amanda opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something to her father but eventually she refrained from feeling that the words she was about to say were inappropriate. Ten minutes later Aydid managed to persuade Arimbi to go down to meet the Emir.

‘Huf! Today is not my lucky day! I met this guy twice today. Dad even punished me for this guy.’ Arimbi nagged at him and his face looked gloomy as he walked towards the Emir.

“What do you want from me Emir?” he asked with a hostile tone and a sharp eye on the Emir.

Arimbi did not know what her husband wanted but she did. Arimbi knelt down in front of the Emir after he saw the man's facial expression look grim.

The Emir extended his hand touching Arimbi's swollen cheek, he pressed his large palm against his cheek. Arimbi could feel his fingertips touching the skin of his face, which surprised him. He had not expected an omnipotent Young Master from the Serkan Family and the business industry king in Metro to have such a delicate and delicate hand.

Touching her hands gently as soft as her skin, she rubbed Arimbi's cheeks very carefully not wanting to exert pressure as it would hurt and aggravate her wound. Arimbi was surprised by the man's actions and he just stared at the Emir's face with a look of disbelief. ‘This is the same guy that fed him sambal the other day? That heartless, cruel man? Why is the touch so soft and smooth?

The two husband and wife stared at each other, suddenly the Emir pulled his hand quickly as if he wanted to avoid the poison on Arimbi's face. Both Yadid and Amanda saw everything the Emir did to Arimbi. The minds of the two people were completely muddled and shattered! Yadid's eyes looked as if they were about to pop out of their sockets, he could not believe what he had just seen.

When the Emir rubbed his finger against Arimbi's face, he saw the man staring at Arimbi with sympathetic eyes. However, as Yadid tries to see better, what he finds is the sharp, cold glare that the Emir used to point out.

“Who hit you?” ask Emir in a deep voice, “He or your father?” the corner of his eye looked at Amanda and then glanced at Amanda's hand. He was considering whether he should cut off one of those hands or Amanda's two hands! How dare he touch my woman! Is he tired of living?

She does not care how much she dislikes Arimbi but she remains his legal wife. He was the only person who had the right to touch her. Amanda's face paled as she looked at the way the Emir was looking at her sharply.

“I didn't hit him, Mr Emir! He even hit me. Look at my face swelling up because he hit me. He even kicked me.”

The Emir's facial expression remained calm and firm as if he was not surprised by the fact that Arimbi had hit someone.

“I am the one who hit Arimbi to teach him a lesson, Mr Emir! It has nothing to do with Amanda. Ever since Arimbi came back to this house, Amanda has always treated him like her precious little sister!” Yadid.

Arimbi couldn't help but snide smile on his face after hearing his father's words. He sneered and his facial expression mocked and the Emir noticed it. Although quickly his facial expression returned as usual.

“Arimbi is your biological daughter, Director Rafaldi! Therefore, I have no right to comment or interfere in your affairs if you want to teach him a lesson. You are his father. But, I really like to see Arimbi's face so I hope you don't hit him in the face again if you want to punish him in the future.” Emir said.

Then he turned his gaze to Arimbi, “What happened between you and Amanda? Why did you finally hit him?”

Arimbi pursed his lips in response, and neither did Amanda. Because Amanda is not a fool and she knows the Emir is not there to make trouble with Arimbi.

The Emir frowned, when he did not get any answers from his new wife. Her mood instantly changed time, “Are you mute Arimbi? I'm asking you! I'm giving you one more chance, I'll cut off your tongue if you don't answer me this time. Why do you need a tongue if you don't use it, ha?”

His bad temper made Arimbi angry, “You want to know why we fought huh? This is all because you are Emir! Today must be the most unlucky day for me! Fuuh..I just kept meeting you, when I was at M&J Boutique a word from you made the employees there throw me out. Amanda thought I had offended you again so she lectured me because of that.” Arimbi said then paused to sigh.
