Happy After Parting With You

Chapter 32

Before running the engine, the men first covered their heads with a black cloth. In front of Ananta cried, making the man who was holding him instantly cover his mouth with duct tape. However, Alvin and Rani can still hear the little girl's moans.

Alvin so sorry why he did not hire the services of bodyguard only so far. He felt his life was going well so he did not need the services of a bodyguard. He forgot that danger could come at any time, stalking him or his family even though he felt he had no enemies at all.

The car was speeding, going where they didn't know. They hope these kidnappers don't do anything to endanger themselves. After a while the car finally stopped, they were all forced out then dragged somewhere.

Alvin and Rani's bodies are thrown into the cold floor, the room is very humid and stuffy. Like a room that was not inhabited for a long time. Their heads were still covered in black cloth and both hands were tied behind the body. The door of the room was closed followed by the sound of footsteps moving away.

A few minutes later, the door opened again, and footsteps entered the room. His voice sounded loud, like the sound of heels clashing against the floor. Roughly the man opened the head cover of both.

"You."

"You."

Alvin and Rani exclaim together to see who did the deed. The woman–who turned out to be Karina–laughs at the expression of the two.

"Why? You surprised?" Karina walked around the two men. Then stop at a chair not far from them, then sit down while crossing his legs.

"Where's Ananta!" Alvin bellowed furiously, his eyes staring intently at the woman who had once been his wife.

"He's fine." Answer Karina flat.

"What exactly do you want?" Ask Alvin again.

"Well, as you know, I just want Ananta with me." Karina pressed her shoulders.

"You want to exploit your own son?" Alvin squinted his eyes.

"Not really, I'm sure Ananta will have fun later." Karina answered casually while playing her nails.

"Don't be crazy! You want to make your son a money machine? I don't accept it, Karin! I won't let it." Alvin gets angrier with Karina's attitude, he even moves her body trying to untie her hand.

"Oh, come on, Vin, this isn't what you imagined. What if he stays alive with you under these circumstances."

Karina takes the remote from the table top, then turns on the flat-screen tv that hangs on the wall. He was looking for a channel that played talk shows that were still discussing viral videos at that time. In addition Karina also shows the latest news from several gossip accounts. More precisely shows the comments of the netizens who blasphemed Alvin and the women who were with him.

Apparently, Karina had the support of the netizens to take custody of Ananta. Of course by selling fake stories if he had never met his daughter, and it makes Alvin sicker.

"You're really disgusting, Karin. You could've killed your own son, your conscience as a mother, huh!" Alvin shouted furiously, wanting to feel like he was beating the woman.

Karina laughed out loud, laughing at the state of her ex-husband who could do nothing.

"Don't be stupid, Vin, life has to be realistic. Now or later Ananta will still be a star following in my footsteps, mother." Karina said presumptuously, she felt confident that Ananta would inherit her talent.

"I won't allow it! It will never!"

"Do you really have a relationship with her?" Karina asked as she scanned Rani from top to bottom with a scornful look.

"It's none of your business!" Alvin answered, turning his face away.

"To be right is no longer my business. But, if I may give you some advice, look for a better one, at least one whose level d is above mine." Karina was about to turn around, but Alvin's shout stopped her again.

"You think you're better than Rani? No Karin, even if I may say you're inferior to him."

Alvin speech is able to drop the self-esteem of a Karina. He turned around and took a quick step closer to the two, his breathing hunting with angry eyes.

"It! Is this what you said good?" Karina gripped Rani's jaw and half raised it. Makes the woman grimace in pain.

"You're crazy! Let him go, Karin!" Shouted Alvin angrily seeing Rani being treated like that.

"You said I was inferior to him, huh!" Karina grew increasingly confused by slapping Rani's cheek many times quite hard. Even so hard to leave a hand mark there.

"Stop, Karin! Enough's enough! Don't be crazy!"

Karina stopped her hand movement, "yes! I'm crazy, you know why? Because all because of you! Because you don't want to understand my situation!" Karina shouted back, her hand then threw Rani's face just like that.

Rani grimaced with pain on her face, especially on the cheeks and corners of her lips. He looked hatefully at the woman standing before him.

"It's all your own fault, Karin. You're too selfish and you want to win by yourself." Alvin denies Karina's accusations.

"I? Selfish?" Karina asked pointing to herself, "you who never understood my circumstances. You're the one who always demands me to be a housewife when you know my career is at the top!" Karina vented her frustration that she had been so sorry for all this time.

Rani can only be silent to the quarrel of the two, she prayed that this household dispute would end soon. He also hoped that someone would help him out of this situation. He never imagined being in such an unfortunate situation.

"That's because I want you to keep an eye on the growth and development of Ananta, our son." Alvin lirih.

"As far as you know, Mom, I wasn't ready to have a kid at the time and you were still pushy." Karina stared intently at her ex-husband, as if she had a grudge of thousands of years that must be resolved soon. The woman then passed away leaving the two of them, closing the door violently until it made a thud.

Alvin tried not to be surprised by Karina's words, but still it still hurt when he had to hear them for the umpteenth time. Alvin turned his head and found Rani still grimacing in pain.

"I'm sorry, Ran, you have to suffer a fate like this." Alvin said softly, he felt guilty for Rani who had been dragged into his personal problems.

Rani did not answer, instead of not wanting just the pain in the cheeks and corners of her lips were swollen, making her pain if she would open her voice. Alvin looked at the woman with pity, wanting to help but his own hands were also tied.

"Have you called for help?" Alvin asked later, he remembered that he had told Rani to contact someone before they were held captive.

Rani nods her head in response, she feels her head start to get dizzy.

"All right, I hope they come quickly."
