I Can Be Happy Without You, Mom

Chapter 108 Stabbing In-Laila's In-laws

Ms. Nani saw a car parked in front of her house. She remembers very well it was the car of Rania's husband's ex-daughter-in-law, as they often used it when coming to her house.

"Why did they come here yes" he murmured.

"Halo Anto, yes I want to report the criminal acts committed by my friend's in-laws. So he deliberately harmed his pregnant daughter-in-law until miscarriage. And worse instead of apologizing, he actually charged his hospital fee of up to 10 million rupiah," Rangga deliberately hardened the volume of his voice.

Bu Nani who had wanted to say hello undo his intention, he actually eavesdropped on Rangga's conversation.

"Oh so yes, it means that her in-laws can be in prison for life or a maximum of 20 years. Ok, after this I'll take him to report directly to the police station. Thank you,"

Rangga put down his phone, while holding back a laugh. That was because he was just talking to himself. He realized that his voice must have been heard by his mother Alif because he deliberately spoke loudly. His wife could only look at him expressionlessly.

"Huh, what does her husband Rania mean to me huh? I don't want to go to jail. He's a lawyer, definitely not messing around with what he says,"

Bu Nani's trembling body held back the fear. Cold sweat started pouring down his face.

"Mother, why are you here? Come on in, there's Rania and her husband inside, too,"

Ms. Nani was surprised. He quietly did not answer, but followed his daughter-in-law's steps. His face was pale with fear.

"Mother why? Is Mom sick?" ask Laila.

"Laila I'm sorry, please don't report me to the police. I don't want to be in jail. I'm not gonna ask for all that money either, please forgive me Laila,"

Nani approaches her daughter-in-law, apologizing at Laila's feet, making Laila uncomfortable.

"Wake up Mom, don't do this" said Laila.

"No, I won't wake up until you promise to forgive me,"

Ms. Nani remained on her knees and cried at the feet of her daughter-in-law. While Rangga and Rania look happy because the plan is successful.

Laila did not see her mother-in-law so. He relented, even though his heart could not forget the fateful incident.

"Yes, Mom, I forgive you. Now you can wake up,"

Laila helped her in-laws stand up.

"But you're not going to report me to the police, are you?" asked Bu Nani to not believe.

"Yes ma'am, I won't report. Now you sit down, let me get you a drink,"

Laila stepped towards the kitchen.

"How are you, ma'am?" ask Rania.

"As you can see" replied Ms. Nani without seeing Rania.

Ms. Nani immediately drank the tea Laila made.

"Who's mom here with you?" ask Laila.

"Ojek rail. I'm going home first, yeah,"

Bu Nani rushes away from the house, leaving Laila stunned.

"Mother is so weird" said Laila.

"Just let Laila, the important thing is that she apologized and didn't bother you anymore" said Rania.

"Yes Ma'am. But it's strange that he suddenly behaved so, even though if he came immediately collect the money he considered the debt,"

Laila still felt awkward. While Rania and Rangga looked at each other meaningfully.

☆☆☆

"Haha..."

Rangga was unable to hold his laughter while in the car.

"Haha... Mas very ignorant anyway, in-law Laila to almost pee loh earlier,"

Rania also laughed along, making their children feel astonished.

"His model-in-law Laila's got to be in my darling. If we're weak, he'll trample us,"

Her husband's words are true because he has felt it for 11 years. But because he was no longer part of the family so could not interfere too much. Luckily her husband had a brilliant idea to help solve Alif and Laila's problems.

☆☆☆

Her night.

"Mas, you came here" reported Laila.

Laila shakes.

"She was acting strange, not as usual" replied Laila.

"Weird how? Must have insulted you, huh?"

Because almost every time Laila met her mother showed her dislike, so Alif thought negatively.

"No, Mom, I was at my feet apologizing. He was afraid I would report to the police" Laila replied.

"Mother apologized to the consternation? Are you sure, Laila?" Alif still can't believe it.

"Yes Mas, even she apologized in front of Rania and her husband earlier," Laila tried to convince her husband.

"So weird huh," Alif seemed to think.

"I feel so too, Mom. Even he said we don't have to pay that debt" said Laila.

"Yes we have taken it good, thank God if the mother is already aware. Here's the 500 grand you just hold for extra,"

Alif handed over the money that had been to repay the debt to his mother into the hands of his wife.

Next day.

"How's he doing, Doc?" ask Anto.

"He is much better, especially when always taking regular medication. If the development is as good as this, the next month must have been able to come out," replied Dr. Hendro.

"Is the doctor sure?" ask again.

"You can see for yourself, let me take Mr. Anto to see him,"

Doctor Hendro heads for Michelle's room followed by Anto. The girl seemed to be reading a book when they came. Michelle smiled at them.

"Sir Commissioner, you're here again" Michelle said.

"Call Anto, Michelle" Anto said.

"I lived in the next room first yes" said the doctor, leaving them.

"Why are you so nice to me? Am I a criminal?"

Michelle looked at Anto so fixedly, she felt that the man was paying too much attention to her. She knew she was just a woman with a mental illness.

"There is no reason to be kind to others. I'm sure you're a good woman, just because you can't control your emotions like this" Anto replied.

Michelle smiled cynically, Anto's answer was too classic and did not make her satisfied.

"How many crazy women have you helped?" ask Michelle.

"Hahaha.no,"

Anto laughed at Michelle's question.

"So?" Michelle is curious.

"So what?" Anto still doesn't understand.

"So why do you want to help me?"

Anto was confused to have to answer, he was embarrassed to tell the truth about his feelings.

"Because we are fellow human beings, so please help each other instead" Anto replied in the end.

Again the woman smiled cynically.

"Wouldn't you have to come here again, there's still a lot of evil you have to deal with,"

Michelle got up and headed towards the door, allowing her guests to leave immediately.

"Why did you throw me out?" ask Anto.

"Please go, Mr. Anto," Michelle said firmly.

"But I..."

Michelle looked at him sharply.

"I like you, Michelle,"
