ILLUSIANA (CONTRACT MARRIAGE)

CHAPTER 27

Victor Reynard. Bramanto's company is quite bona fide in the container of interstate seaport. The busyness seemed solid that afternoon.

The employees are struggling with their own work. Likewise with Reynard as one of the officials who have a very strategic position in the company.

Its performance deserves a thumbs up because it has made a lot of progress for the company. Thus making it as one of Bramanto's trustees to handle his company.

“Excuse me, Mr. Rey.” Diana secretary Reynard approaches her desk. Reynard.

“Personal connection on line 1 from Pak Bramanto.” Diana pointed at the office phone located on Reynard's desk.

“Oo, fine.“ In a hurry Reynard picked up his phone.

“Halo Boss, good afternoon,” greet Reynard in a carefree voice.

“Good day, Rey. Can you come home tonight. There's something I'm going to talk about,” welcome Bramanto's heavy voice on the other end of the phone.

“Could certainly, Boss. Go home to my office" promised Reynard.

“Oke, I wait."

The phone call ended. Reynard put the phone into place.

“What's the matter about?” reynard murmured while guessing in the heart.

At night at Bramanto's residence.

Reynard enters Bramanto's lavish living room. Seemed some of Bramanto's personal guards standing firmly in some corners with a stiff face without a smile.

It was already seen some fellow directors sitting in the middle room. They were still wearing full suits just like him.

“Please, come here Rey," welcome Bramanto who stands among the members of the board.

Reynard quickly approached and occupied an empty chair that seemed to have been prepared for him.

All the compact directors nodded respectfully at him then refocused on Bramanto sitting before them.

“What do you want to drink, Rey? The vodka? A beer? Or Wine?“ Bramanto offers Reynard a drink.

“No thanks, it's still too late to drink alcohol. Just coffee," Reynard replied politely.

Bramanto had his servant prepare what Reynard had ordered. Before long the coffee came and was placed on the table right in front of Reynard.

“You are all familiar with Reynard, after all?” Bramanto opened the talks, introducing Reynard to the members of the board.

They nodded while smiling respectfully at Reynard.

“This bright young man who managed to save all company assets in the Surabaya branch which was almost robbed by manipulator bags in the Surabaya branch. This young man has also revealed their manipulation game,” Praise Bramanto to Reynard with pride. The spontaneous present gives the aplause. Reynard also nodded respectfully.

“Then from it. I must give my highest appreciation to Reynard.”

Reynard and all those present were waiting for what Bramanto would say next.

“I appointed Reynard as Director of Operations for the Center. From today I delegate all the duties and responsibilities of the company to Reynard. And also of course there is a reward for you, Young man.”

Applause reverberated in the room. Proud of Reynard.

“Thank you so much for you, Mr. Bramanto,“, Reynard said as he leaned over and placed his hand on his chest. Paying respect to Bramanto.

“Good. Now we will discuss the development of our company in all branches.”

They started talking about everything related to the company. One by one the board spoke up, including Reynard, reporting on all the development of the branch he led.

The clock starts at nine o'clock past thirty minutes. But it seems they still continue to discuss and exchange ideas between fellow directors.

Reynard took a moment to just breathe the night air around the back garden. He took off his suit, then placed it on a park bench.

He pulled a white cigarette and then he started it. He inhaled it deeply and then exhaled back the smoke.

Suddenly his gaze was fixed on a room upstairs whose lights were on. He squinted his eyes to catch the figure of the woman standing right on the balcony of the room.

He saw a young woman in very skimpy black nightgown standing facing him.

The young lady was curling around sexyly as if to lure Reynard to keep paying attention to her.

Reynard's getting curious. He stepped closer.

“Do not approach, it's your boss." Suddenly a female voice prevented his steps.

Reynard turned to the origin of the voice. Found Mother Tantri, Bramanto's wife was standing upright beside him. He looked at the young lady on the balcony.

“Means mother?” ask Reynard.

“The girl's parents can't pay her debt to your boss. That's their daughter as the payer.” Ms. Tantri's voice sounded extremely anxious and angry.

Reynard's memory is immediately set on Susi, the girl who almost became a victim of Bramanto's madness and is now the wife of his best friend.

“Let's know how many girls people have been victims. Until I am tired of counting it,” said Ms. Tantri again.

“But why are the women up there acting like that?" point Reynard with his eyes.

Tantri's mother also noticed the girl on the balcony swerving her body towards Reynard seemed to be deliberately inviting her manly passion.

“The child is under the influence of stimulant drugs. I don't know how many doses Bramanto gave him to the extent that his behavior was bad like that,” tell Bu Tantri snorted staring intently at the girl on the balcony.

“That's Bramanto's new way to hold its victims. Because previously someone managed to escape survived the grip of the old man bangka it.”

Yep! It must be Lusi who meant Tantri's mother, guess Reynard in heart.

“Kabur? How about an escort this tight?” search Reynard again.

“I helped the girl escape through that back door.” Ms. Tantri pointed at the small turnstile that led out.

“That girl was lucky to escape from here. Even though I was beaten by my husband,” remembered Ms. Tantri with a heart of grief.

“And until this second Bramanto is still looking for the whereabouts of the girl. Thank goodness he didn't find it. Maybe it has gone out of this city,” said Bu Tantri took a heavy breath.

Reynard was transfixed and his heart felt slashed to hear the words of Mrs Tantri. It was fortunate that Lusi met Ferdian, the right person to protect him, he thought.

“Why didn't Mom report to the police? It's too late, Mom?” ask Reynard again.

Ms. Tantri shook her head weakly. “I don't dare.”

Reynard breathed heavily. His eyes were still fixed on the girl standing 'challenging' on the balcony of Bramanto's bedroom.

“I noticed you were different from my husband's other employees. My feelings are different when I see you," said Ms. Tantri observing Reynard's figure with her eyes whizzing.

“Means Mother?” reynard didn't understand.

“Yes, I feel you are a good young man and not a sycophant like Bramanto's other subordinates.”

Reynard cleared his throat once then seriously faced Bu Tantri.

“Will you help me, son?” pinta Bu Tantri stared at Reynard.

“Help what, Bu?”

“Punish Bramanto for his actions. Drag him to jail. Because I think this includes human trafficking, human trafficking. I really can't bear to see girls being treated that low by my husband. He bought it just to serve his lust then after getting bored he just dumped it and even sold it back to night cafes or high-end karaoke places.”

Reynard. Miris imagined Bramanto's actions that had greatly exceeded the limit.

But Bramanto people ‘sakti’. Reynard knew how he was able to use his money and power to escape the law. Proven in the case of the death of Ferdian's parents seven years ago.

Although the main witness said Bramanto was the mastermind of the murder but still he could be free and breezed freely until this moment

“I will gather all the evidence of his crime, you who processed it so that he can not escape the law anymore,” continued Bu Tantri urged Reynard.

Reynard looked at the old Tantri. In his heart he also agreed with this request of Mrs Tantri. But he also has a big responsibility to help Ferdian to take revenge for the deaths of his parents.

Oh, my God, help me. His prayer in the heart.

“Alright, Mom. I'll help.” Finally Reynard decided.

Seen by her, Bu Tantri smiled with relief.

“Stay keep contact, later I give you my personal phone number which Bramanto himself does not know.”

Reynard nodded. Then Ms. Tantri took a quick step to leave her alone.

Now his gaze was directed again at the girl who was still standing on the upper balcony. This time it was more challenging. Without a single shirt on his body. Reynard nodded his head at it.

Incredible stimulant given Bramanto to the girl to the point of no longer knowing shame.
