I'M A BASTARD!

ETHAN HELPED ALIKA

"Do you like children?" Ethan's.

"Eum I like small children.I used to play with the children of neighbors, before finally my grandmother locked me in the house" Alika.

"Why are you locked up?" Ethan's.

"Grandma said I was beautiful and if I was sold for a price, Grandma gave me a variety of herbs to keep my body nice and my uterus fertile

Grandma also taught me how to take care of my hair and face. Grandma then invited some of her acquaintances to come to the house and told me to serve drinks

The striped-nosed men then bid me for various prices, until I finally sold for five million dollars" Alika.

Ethan is silent he notices Alika who is smiling and invites Aruna to joke. Ethan does not find the slightest bit of sadness on Alika's face, not because Alika is not sad about her fate but because Alika is too great to hide the wound in her heart.

"Are you going to marry the man who bought you?" Ethan's.

"No sir. I will not marry someone I do not love, because my dream is to live happily with my husband and children" Sahut Alika smiled.

"I'm amazed at you even though you've been through a tough time you can still smile" Ethan.

"I've cried, I've yelled, and I've screamed.Nobody has heard my screams, nobody has stopped my cries, and nobody cares about me.

I decided to change.I promised myself I would smile even between my tears. I want to hold onto my sadness so that everyone around me can smile with me" Alika.

"with your beauty it's certainly not going to be difficult for you to meet the man of your dreams" Ethan.

"This beauty sometimes makes me regret, sir. said people if beautiful then it will be happy, but why not me?.. I think this beauty actually makes me get a lot of trouble" Alika.

"then what will you do after this?" Ethan's.

"I will cover my face with a veil, maybe that way this face will not cause any more problems" Alika.

"It's not you who's guilty, it's not your face that's wrong, because all the problems that come to you are because of the savage men who can't control their passions" Ethan.

Alika just smiles and kisses Aruna, Alika then descends from the swing and descends Aruna to the ground. Aruna's little legs started to step following Alika.

"Sweet child come here baby" Alika is not far from Aruna only about five steps.

But Aruna's little legs still haven't been so strong going that far. Aruna falls down and cries, Ethan wants to get to Aruna but Alika looks at Ethan and shakes her head.

"Arune... Aruna here baby, Aruna handsome boy, Aruna smart boy, here dear" Alika.

Aruna began to move and again stepped closer to Alika. This time Aruna managed to reach Alika and embrace her, Aruna laughed in Alika's arms.

Ethan who saw that just smiled meaningfully. Ethan approaches Alika and Aruna with a meaningful look, Ethan rubs Alika's head gently.

Alika blushed in shame and carried the Aruna she still held walking ahead of Ethan.

"You like it?" Karina comes to Ethan.

"He's very gentle, but he also has a warm heart" Ethan.

"Mama and papa feel she's a woman fit to be Aruna's mother, to be your wife" Karina.

"She said she didn't want to marry the man she didn't love" Ethan.

Alika carries Aruna in her arms until Aruna falls asleep. Hanna approaches Alika and takes Aruna from her trunk by force.

"young master shouldn't sleep at this hour, you're taking him too much to play so that the young master is exhausted and asleep" Hanna told Alika.

Alika looked down without saying anything. When Hanna gives Aruna to the arms of a servant Alika tries to stop it.

"Don't carry her like that, you'll hurt her neck can hurt" Alika said with a worried look.

"We understand much better how to nurture a young master than yourself!" Hanna's cold.

"Madam Hanna she's still too small a way of carrying like that would make her uncomfortable" Alika.

Surely not long after that Aruna cried very hard because she felt uncomfortable. Alika without a second thought wants to take Aruna and calm her down but Hanna pushes Alika to make Alika fall into the pool.

Alika who can't swim and tries to ask for help but Hanna just shut up. Ethan who saw it immediately threw himself into the pool and helped Alika.

"Uhuk uhuk! Th-mister uhuk!" Alika leaned on Ethan at the edge of the pool.

"Hanna are you crazy?!" Ethan is furious, Ethan lifts Alika into his carrier and brings Alika into the mansion.

Karina who saw her grandson being carried by the maid in the wrong way immediately took the granddaughter. Karina calms Aruna down and takes her into the mansion following Ethan.

"You'll deal with me later" Karina.

Ethan takes the fainted Alika to the medical room to be treated by a doctor. Luis and Jason are confused by what happened, so Leo takes the initiative to invite them to check the cctv.

"Uncle Luis I'm sorry. I didn't take good care of Alika" Ethan.

"it's not your fault, sir, but it's the one who wants to hurt my innocent nephew" Luis.

Luis approached Hanna and slapped Hanna in the face. Luis is furious that Hanna, who pushed Alika into the pool, did not even help Alika when she drowned.

The doctor came out of the medical room and said that Alika was fine. Ethan goes into the medical room and meets Alika, the girl has changed clothes assisted by the female nurse earlier while Ethan meets Alika with a state still wet.

"Your master is still soaking wet, you can get sick if not immediately change clothes and terrible hair" Alika.

"You yourself how? are you okay?" Ethan's.

Alika gets out of bed in the medical room and kneels in front of Ethan. That made Ethan and the others a little surprised.

"I'm fine sir... sir if allowed may I take care of young master Aruna? Sorry my master has no intention whatsoever sir

I just want to take care of the young master and serve you as a token of gratitude because you have accepted me to stay here and save my life" Alika.

Ethan smiles and helps Alika stand up, Ethan looks at the beautiful face of Alika who looks a little pale and wet hair.

"Well you can be my personal assistant, your job is to take care of me and Aruna" Ethan.

"Thank you very much sir" Alika smiled looking down respectfully.

"I'll get you some dry clothes and make some ginger tea to warm your body" Alika passed away from the medical room.

"The smile is so sweet..." Ethan mumbled softly.
