I'm Not a Cheap Woman

Punishment For Perpetrators of Punishment

Zionel did not find his parents when he wanted to get out of his house, he finally left without saying goodbye. Zionel drives his own car to his apartment, not wanting to be with the driver for fear that his family knows what he is doing with Alex.

The trip was quite long because the road was very jammed in the afternoon, but Zionel continued to be patient like never before. The man was certainly in a good mood after marrying Stevani. Finally, he arrived at his apartment. Zionel saw Alex's car still parked there.

"You're so patient Lex." Zionel muttered with a smile.

Zionel parked his car and got off. The man moved his feet immediately towards his apartment. Alex and some of his men were waiting for him at the door of the apartment. The man immediately approached Zionel.

"Sir Zio.." said Alex.

"Why are you outside Lex?" ask Zionel.

"Bored beating up the guy inside. Is the traffic jam so bad?"

"I'm late not just because I'm stuck. You interfere with my work at home, of course I have to finish it first." seduced Zionel.

"Oh my God, may Miss Stevani face her crazy husband." - Alex.

Suddenly Zionel let go of his laughter. "How can you take this man without anyone's suspicion including Lex's security?"

"Of course, by threatening him, he was willing to keep quiet when I brought him here."

"Good job, Lex. I'm not cutting your pay and bonuses" Zionel said with a laugh.

"Of course you don't cut my salary and bonuses, you keep doing your homework after I call you. I'm waiting for you to rust here." thought Alex.

Zionel looked at Alex. "I know you're talking in Lex's heart. If you dare to curse me even in my heart, I will kill you."

Alex chuckles. "You're exaggerating Mr. Zio, I don't dare curse you."

"Ciii..."

Zionel opens the door to his apartment, the man enters followed by Alex. The two stared at the stabbing culprit who was tied to the sofa. Zionel immediately approached the man. The suspect looked at them.

"What are you doing Lex? Look at his battered face" Zionel said.

"Not admitting his actions even trying to resist, it was only a light punishment for him. I should have broken his arm for daring to hurt you." Alex replied.

Zionel chuckled as he opened the duct tape in the mouth of the perpetrator.

"Take me off...!" shouted perpetrator.

"Dare to shout again, then I'll throw you out of this building." Zionel snapped.

Instantly the perpetrator fell silent.

"You remember me?" ask Zionel.

The perpetrator shook his head. Zionel opened his shirt and showed a stab scar on his stomach.

"Do you remember now?" ask Zionel again.

Stuntman. "I only received a fee to kill that woman, I have no intention of stabbing you."

Zionel gritted his teeth and then held the cheek of the perpetrator with one hand. The man pressed the cheek of the perpetrator firmly.

"If you manage to kill that woman, it's the same as killing me. The woman you want to kill is my wife" Zionel said furiously. "Do you know why I didn't take you to the police station? It's because I want to stab you in the stomach so you can feel the pain I'm going through." he added, releasing the cheek of the perpetrator.

"Sorry sir, forgive me. Don't kill me. I'm forced to make money this way because my daughter is very sick. I don't have a steady job, please let me go, sir." asked the perpetrator.

Of course Zionel did not really want to stab the man, his words were just a mere threat.

"You're afraid to die thinking about your family, then do you think about the victim you want to stab? Do they have no family?" zionel.

The perpetrator lowered his head. "I promise I won't do this kind of work again sir, please forgive me."

Zionel let go of his laughter. "Lex.. could it be that criminals seem to be able to repent?"

Alex shook his head while handing over the criminal record files he got from his men. Zionel received the file and read it.

"We can hand it over to the police station with another case Mr. Zio" Alex said.

"Please sir, don't hand me over to the police station. I don't want to go to jail." ask the perpetrator again.

"All right sir." Alex replied.

Alex immediately released the man from his bond on the sofa. However Alex immediately held both his hands behind his back and helped him stand up.

"I let you out of this stabbing case, but at least you feel a little pain" Zionel said as he thrust his fist hard into his stomach until the man groaned in pain and coughed.

"I'm not satisfied until you bleed like I almost bleed" Zionel said, hitting his stomach again.

And sure enough, the perpetrator coughed again coughing while spewing blood from his mouth.

"Lex.. hand this man over to the police station with a case of a charge or robbery." Zionel ordered.

Alex nodded while dragging the perpetrator. The culprit was helpless after receiving two blows from Zionel, the man simply could not fight back anymore.

"So sick kid, you don't think I'm asking Alex to investigate your identity. You're a drunk guy and it looks like you're a drug user. Your crime money you just use for fun, you son of a bitch.." said Zionel.

Zionel stared at his throbbing hand after hitting the perpetrator. He immediately headed to the kitchen to pick up a small towel and ice cubes. He immediately compresses his hand, not because of pain but he is afraid his family knows especially Stevani.

A few minutes later, Alex returned to Zionel again.

"Sir Zio. has settled, the perpetrator has been secured by the police" Alex said.

Zionel approached Alex while sitting on the sofa. "Sit down Lex."

Alex sat in front of him.

"How's company?" ask Zionel.

"Two weeks more clients from Japan will come Mr. Zio, this is about the development project in the city of Soha. They were very interested in the construction work of Cruise's company" Alex replied.

"Two weeks left? Hopefully not at the same time as Zaline's move."

"Miss Zaline wants to be moved?"

Zionel. "Doctor Mark says Zaline is getting better, treatment can continue at the city's hospital."

"Oh my God, thank goodness. You don't have to worry Mr. Zio, if that time comes along with a client from Japan, then I will take care of it. But your client doesn't want to be represented, he just wants to meet you" Alex said.

"I understand Lex, I believe you can help me but I don't want to let Stevani down."

"Miss Stevani is a very understanding woman Mr. Zio. He can't be disappointed with you, you've helped him so far. He will definitely understand your situation, you just can't welcome Miss Zaline. But once you're done with the client, you can go straight to the hospital."

"You're right, but I still hope the client meeting with Zaline's transfer schedule isn't the same. Try it differently, Lex. I just want to accompany my wife to welcome Zaline at the airport."

"Sure sir."

"You've been working hard this late Lex, now go home to rest. I also have to go back to Cruise's house before dinner."

"Your hand..."

"It will improve immediately after being compressed for a while. And let the waiter clean up the mess here."

"Well Mr. Zio, if you can't drive, I can take you home" Alex said.

"No need for Lex. Just get stabbed I can hold it, let alone just like this. It's a good thing I can hold back, if I hit that guy again I might kill him" Zionel replied with a laugh.

Alex shook his head. "I won't let you be a murderer, Zio, but if it happens it will be my happiness."

"What do you mean?" ask Zionel.

Alex got out of his seat and prepared to get out of the apartment. The man had not answered Zionel's question, he immediately approached the exit of the room and opened it.

"Because if you go to jail, then Miss Stevani is mine." Alex replied as he exited the room before getting punched, scorned and cursed from his superior.

The sound of the item hitting the door was heard by Alex making the man laugh while leaving Zionel just like that.
