Guarding Love

CHAPTER 18 - Arlen Named Arden

The process of filming the Team 3 ad is almost complete, it does not feel almost 2 months Hanny worked on StarE, another week will be announced the 2nd product. Indeed, team 3 is very good in running this project by using Irene as a model of the ad that is beautiful, sexy and has an exotic and mature face, suitable for the theme of the ad itself. Filming was done on the island of B, of course Johan was also not home during the filming process on island B.

Grandfather also had 2 days to stay at the big house Salim and thought Johan was having business needs outside the city instead of following Irene. Hanny is also very happy if there is no Johan because she feels more comfortable at home.

~StarE~

Everyone has relaxed because there is nothing else the team will do, 1,2 and 4. Only team 3 who are still on island B enjoy filming and vacations.

"Hanny, to the cafe down yuk." Take Serin who has evaporated several times because of boredom. Hanny stands up with passion and follows Serin. Hanny's mood suddenly became good and excited and stepped into the coffee shop downstairs while chatting and sometimes walking back a few steps to see Serin who was still behind. Hanny accidentally bumps into someone and the man catches a surprised Hanny turning to him.

"Sorry.." Hanny said then stunned for a moment, her sense of smell found the scent she remembered so much. It's the scent of Jo's sister, her inner self. Then raised his head to see who the man who was embracing him was.

Arden, who is becoming Will, passes there with Arka. Hanny was stunned, silent while looking at Arden's eyes which also seemed to look at each other and drowned in each other's eyeballs.

Hanny jumped in surprise as Serin called out to her, "Hanny.. Han.." Serin was also surprised because Hanny was embraced by a maximum handsome personal bodyguard, and worse, they were also beside her.

"LUSTY!" Squeeze Serin in the heart. Hanny who realized immediately released herself from Arden. "Sorry sir, I didn't accidentally." Hanny said softly as she lowered her head a little.

"Next time be careful." Arden's whisper but can still be heard by Hanny clearly. Hanny was surprised to hear that voice. "That voice... Brother Jo..." Hanny muttered in her heart and turned to look at Arden as Will had walked away from her.

"Hanny....! Crazy yaa. What dream was last night Han." Pekik Serin was both joyful and envious. Likewise, several pairs of eyes that saw the event that had just happened. There was one woman who took a picture of Hanny hugging Arden and sending it to someone.

Hanny bowed in embarrassment, and pulled Serin right away from there to get downstairs in an elevator. Hanny felt bad for seeing people whispering with cynical eyes towards her, undeniably Hanny also felt her heartbeat faster and felt a twitch in the lower core of her body as if struggling to stay hugged and want more.

"What's wrong with your brain Hanny, you pervert." hard on yourself in the heart. Serin continues to tease Hanny until Hanny Kesel hears her chatter.

"Han, who do you think Will is more handsome?" Ask Serin. Hanny did not want to answer and just kept quiet.

"If you are very handsome and Will is also but Will is different Han. As if it has an extraordinary appeal, it is very eager to be embraced by him. It's like we've got a strong magnet and our bodies are shaking and strongly attracted." Obviously Serin with his lebay and Hanny snorted in annoyance. Yes annoyed! His heart feels hot. Especially if the women who had been staring in admiration for Will, Hanny felt annoyed and wanted him to approach the women and hit her. He didn't know Will, he thought.

Hanny started to waver, upon returning from the cafe and having sat at her desk imagining the incident that Will embraced made her think, Will is very similar to Kak Jo. "Is it possible that the same person?" He said in his heart, let alone his close look, eye sight, body scent and warm embrace was remembered by Hanny.

~Arden~ Headquarters

Arden was still smiling considering the incident in the office earlier and Arka who glanced at him at a glance directly patted his shoulder to make him aware.

"Bos why the hell?" Vino asked whispered to Arka. "Take a look at the lobby cctv 7 and a half hours ago." Answer Brief arcs.

Before long Jupi went into one of the rooms in the headquarters and brought a collection of tablets and a stack of chocolate maps.

"Boss, here we go. Let me explain." Said Jupi who was ready to tell a long story.

Jupi began to explain that since the beginning Arlen was never in the main house of the Southeast but in the villa of the Southeast family in the middle of the forest on Mount S, Arlen seemed to hide. Same with Arden who is unknown to any. After years, Arlen disappeared. After Jupi checks the old cctv in the villa it is seen that Arlen's condition is very bad, like being sick and according to the info circulating there there is a teenager sick and died, his name is unknown.

The teenager was taken to the hospital and in the care of some time until he died and the name of the teenager is Southeast Arden, as stated by the hospital doctor. Jupi stopped his sentence, Arden was stunned for a moment, he looked at Jupi with a thousand questions in his brain.

"Prophey bro.." Jupi.

Jupi showed 1 video taken from the hospital hallway that there were 2 bodies pushed by 2 different men. There looks Richmon Southeast waiting for one of the bodies and 1 more brought to a different room by a young man and other teenagers who were the same age as Arlen at that time, they waited for the second body without anyone knowing. Jupi then showed 1 more photo from his cellphone, "This photo was only taken 2 months ago at the house of residents of the coastal city of Y." You know him bro?" Ask Jupi. Arden took his cell phone and saw the young man in the photo.

"Arlenin..." Arden murmured softly as his eyes began to glaze over and hold back his tears from falling. Arlen is in appalling condition. Sitting in a wheelchair, looking blankly forward, his body was thin and unkempt.

"And after I checked, I found out that you're not identical twins." Said Jupi in response to a nod by Arden.

"Yes, I look a lot like my dad and Arlen looks like my mom and I'm the only one with the same eye color as my dad's Blake." Arden's reply convinced Jupi and the others.

"It is not certain why Arlen was there and why the teenager who died was named Southeast Arden. And the information we got, the big Southeast family didn't know you were twins. Then your secrecy has been assured until now."

"Look at this, man with teenage son. It is known that after Richmon left he carried the body in a private car in secret. She's Southeast January, your step-sister." Jupi continued again and Arden was confused because Cecilia never said anything.

"Mother never told me about a brother or a half-sister, I think the mother's only child's only heir." Arden.

"Yes, but ever since Southeast Cecilia decided to run away from the Southeast house, Richmon brought home his stepson hoping to briefly replace Cecilia until Richmon found you. to be brought back to fill the position of heir." Connect Jupi again.

"Well, man, I haven't seen anything else. Maybe Oma Susi can tell you everything. I'm sure that Oma Susi knows everything and she's still keeping it a secret." Connect Jupi again. Arden was still silent, digesting every piece of information he received.

"What must have been looking for was because Arlen died, why was my name there, why did Arlen become like that. Find as much information as you can about that January." Arden said, "If Oma Susi is still in Japan and will be home next month after my 23rd birthday to take care of the transfer of all her inheritance." Arden continued with a frown and walked up to the monitor looking into the cctv of the room featuring Hanny there to find peace of mind.

The younger brother who was presumed dead was still alive and living in agony, "What should I do?" In other words, Jupi patted his back "Relax bro, Arlen does look miserable but he lives there alone with a young girl who always takes care of him. My informant says sometimes he plays and laughs happily with the kids there, I'll gather everything together so you're calmer." Jupi explained again so that the boss and his best friend were calmer.

Arden hugged Jupi, thanking him. "We're bosses, we're gonna figure it all out." Continued Vino who has issued a report of his.

"Alexander was sentenced to 8 years in prison for embezzlement of PT Lim Lte funds, and bribery cases are still in the trial process. My men in prison already got information from Alex, if he was promised to be imprisoned only 2 years and will be assisted with a piece of remission so that only inside not until 2 years. In contrast to Miss Hanny's marriage to Johan which is indeed a request of Grandpa Salim who really likes Miss Hanny, while Johan and Adam are more concerned with property. Adam uses the excuse that the Salim family has helped Alex a lot in his career, home, car, position and all the facilities so that Alex feels indebted. Of course, with the lure of Miss Hanny marrying Johan and being the daughter-in-law of the Salim family, Hanny will be happy and Alex does not have to worry about Miss Hanny. Well, after Miss Hanny got married, the boss knew for himself what happened." Obviously Vino then gives some information about Alex's case.

"About the second case, the bribery. Alex is accused of stealing the company's funds to build a new company for himself and the bodong company is indeed its owner on behalf of Hanny Tanisha Alexander. The funds were given as a bribe like a boss scalper so it was easy to enter and cooperate with StarE" continued Vino again.

"Suck!" Jerk Arden, why could his little girl's name be listed there.

"Relax boss.not done yet. This case is still pending is likely to be withdrawn again because Miss Hanny has become the daughter-in-law of the Salim family so that it will tarnish their own good name. This is the work of Johan, who had wanted to frame Alex and use his daughter's name from the beginning. But it turns out she's even married to Miss Hanny." Vino again.

"Now there is no sign that the Salim family will take care of Mr. Alex to get out of the boss' prison, it's been 1 year. Do we want to help?" Ask Vino and of course it's done by Arden.

"Help immediately revocation of the bribery case and appeal the case of embezzlement of funds also check the bodong company." Arden's orders again quickly Vino nodded his head.

"Okeh, it's Arka's turn." Jupi continued, who was still there listening to the whole conversation.

"Still able to Ar?" Tanya Arka looked at Arden who rubbed his head strongly feeling frustrated. "You want now or later? You see your little girl disappeared from the cctv screen already 20 minutes." Said Arka while pointing towards the screen behind Arden.

Arden quickly turns around looking for Hanny's whereabouts, lastly he goes down the hallway to the ladies' room and doesn't come out again. It was 20 minutes ago and now it's home office hours. Before Vino contacted his men to check the situation there, Hanny was out of the toilet hallway with a hand-held by Serin and they returned to the office space. Arden breathed a sigh of relief. "Here you are, tomorrow you are." Arden and Arka agreed.

"There's nothing too important about this anyway, it's still stuck." Said Arka, then they disbanded.

\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~

"Kok can the hell Han you in the toilet locked so?" Serin asked while helping Hanny dry her slightly wet hair and clothes.

"Don't know Rin, I was just going to the toilet to pee and suddenly there was water, fortunately I had avoided even though it was wet as well. Want to get out the door can not be opened Rin" explained Hanny a little annoyed while wiping her sleeves and wet left pants.

"Yes, I was first. I was looking for your lost, good thing to stop by the toilet for a while. Bye Hanny..." Pamit Serin was in a hurry because there was an appointment.

Hanny was alone in the room because it was past the office hours. Because their division has finished the first ad so there is not much work while waiting for the 2nd ad a few more days will be announced. Hanny felt tired today, so she leaned her head for a moment on the table with her hands as a cushion. Doesn't feel like he's asleep.

Before long, Arden comes to Hanny who is still asleep at her desk. "Darling... Are you tired?" Said Arden while confirming Hanny's hair covering her face. He looked at Hanny and peeked at her cheeks that had started chubby again. "Just been left for a little while......" Arden's words came to a halt as he was shocked to see Hanny who had opened her eyes.

"That's right, brother Jo!!!" Shouted Hanny while raising her head looking at Arden who suddenly stood up and directly ran out from there.

Hanny immediately chased after him and saw Arden entering one of the emergency stairwell doors. Hanny followed him until Hanny shouted again. "Stop! Or I jump." Threatens Hanny to see Arden who quickly darted away leaving her. Hearing Hanny's threat, Arden stopped and went back upstairs to Hanny who was looking at her angrily.

"So big brother's name, Will?" Hanny asked and hugged Arden. Arden pegged for a few seconds and then returned his embrace.

"It turns out this is the face of a handsome brother." Said Hanny again while looking up to see the face of Arden who was also looking at her.

"Knowledge..." Reply Arden Sabil chuckled softly.

Hanny stroked Arden's handsome face with a smile. "I've been suspicious when we first met, brother's eyes are different in color but the look of the eyes can not be lied to. Keep this scent. I like.." Clearly Hanny and hugging Arden again with her face on the chest of Arden's field inhaled a soothing masculine scent.

There was the sound of the door above them opening and a few footsteps and the sound of people talking.

"Ssttt..." His finger on Hanny's lips then raised Hanny's body to embrace her like a child carrying and ran 2 floors below then entered the secret door that did not look like the door, it was a special elevator door. Arden pressed the number 32 button and the elevator went up to the intended floor. Hanny and Arden's heart rhymed together fast as it was almost caught. Arden was still carrying Hanny and moved into the room like a meeting room.

"God..." Hanny was the one who finally cried out in surprise to see Arkana Dirut StarE there who was silent to see their arrival.
