LOVE & VENGEANCE

The doubt!

The next morning after Edward's modest birthday with the family, Zayn, who was about to leave for the office, approached his father at the dinner table.

" good morning dad "

Sapa Zayn and immediately sat on the chair opposite to the father.

" good morning, too, son "

Edward replied with a smile towards Zayn.

" oh yes Zayn, the girl that Arden was with last night was pretty too "

Edward continued again because he wanted to see Zayn's latest reaction to a girl because it had been since the death of the mother and her sister , Zayn maintained contact with any woman except Carlyn and Aretha.

Even for now all of their household assistants are men.

" yes, I am a beautiful father "

Edward smiled happily at Zayn's reply but then immediately turned into a wry smile when he heard Zayn's response

" can't be handsome "

Connect Zayn again with his flat tone. Both continued their breakfast in silence . After breakfast, Zaynpun left for his office .

This morning he had to attend an important meeting in his office then in the afternoon he also had to survey the construction of one of his hotels in the city of Surabaya .

To this day Edward is unwilling to force Zayn to be close to any woman but that does not mean he is not trying to heal his son's trauma and hatred for women. A lot of things he did started from taking his business friend's dinner with his daughter and introducing her to Zayn and many other ways he did of course without forcing Zayn to take his son he was not suspicious of his plan. But to this day Edward has not succeeded in the slightest so he sometimes feels sad because at the age of his son who is now, Zayn should have married or even have children like he used to.

Elsewhere, Megan walks into Zalia's room. Seeing the girl who was still engrossed in her dreams made Megan approach the bed and build Zalia.

" Buehl .... Zalia woke up already noon "

" mmm .... In a moment ma "

" Zalia ... You're not a good girl to wake up like this ... Come on get up quick ! "

" mmm .... Mama, Zalia was still sleepy skali last night Zalia was slow sleep after college will be late afternoon "

Zalia said without opening her eyes as she was still sleepy. Because last night after being escorted Arden home, Zalia still completed her college assignments until midnight.

" get up now Zalia, just papa called mama he said papa again in the city of Surabaya so we have to go there to meet papa this afternoon and the plane we will ride depart in one hour "

" but ma, Zalia has to go to college later in the afternoon "

" Zalia, you know what your papa looks like . Papa doesn't want us to deny his orders "

" all right ma "

" yes it's been , quickly get up and shower after that breakfast . We both need to leave immediately "

" ka Vinda didn't come ? "

" he couldn't leave this morning because there was an irrevocable shooting schedule so he was leaving later in the afternoon "

After that Megan left Zalia's room . Then shower and get ready . This time he had to skip college again because this was his papa's order. Zalia knew, even though the father loved her very much, but the man did not want his orders to be denied by anyone.

An hour later Megan and Zalia flew to Surabaya . When they arrive at their destination airport, someone picks them up. On the way, Zali asked the driver, who was his father's right hand man,

" uncle Alend, does uncle know what reason papa asked us all to meet him here ? "

" i don't know Miss Zalia. Maybe the master is just missing his family "

Sahut Alen pretended not to know.

Hearing Alen's answer just now made Zalia silent.

' yes, maybe papa again misses us ', inner Zalia again . But while looking out the car window, Zalia remembered something and immediately picked up her phone and immediately opened the calendar. When he saw the date today, Zali also said in a high tone

" jeez mama !!! "

" what's up Zalia ? how to be so "

" pa's birthday today ma .

Oh my poor papa, his wife and son forgot his birthday "

Zalia was lethargic for feeling guilty for her father.

" oh , so it's papa's birthday, apparently, so he asked us all to come here "

Megan continued without any guilt.

" uncle Alend please stop at one of the shops in front ya "

Zalia said, pointing to the line of shops in front of them.

" all right, miss "

Alen replied while slowing down the speed of the car and then stopped in front of the shop that Zalia meant.

Then he went downstairs to buy something.

Twenty minutes later Zalia got back into the car with two different-sized boxes in her hand.

One box contained a birthday cake and the other was a gift to her papa.

When she sat down and put her seatbelt on, Zalia asked her mother ,

" mom didn't buy a gift for papa ? "

" no, no, it'll be noon with Vinda "

Megan's Law on Zalia.

" oh, yes, then.

Come on, Alend, let's go "

Zalia told Alen.

" all right, miss "

Alen answered while driving a black car.

A few minutes later their car entered the grounds of a very luxurious house.

Zalia who came down along with Alend who was opening the door for Megan, asked :

" o Alend whose house is this ? "

" later the lady will know for herself, let's go in "

Sahut Alen who immediately stepped ahead of the two towards the door decorated with very beautiful carvings.

When the door in front of them opened,

" waw... extraordinary ... "

Zalia cried that immediately closed her mouth when she saw a giant aquarium with various marine animals in it. Coupled with two stairs to go up to the second floor on their left and right sides, it would really amaze anyone who saw it. Not only that when they reached the second floor they were still amazed . How not , the floor is made of transparent glass so they can see all the contents of the giant aquarium that is below them . Zalia really couldn't hide the admiration on her face . But another case with Megan who looks indifferent with everything she sees.

' at most his dirty business results in the dark world '

inner Megan while looking at Thomas Anderson her husband who was going down the stairs from the third floor without any longing even though he had not seen her for a long time . Because the relationship between the two has long been tenuous even not like a married couple anymore. But somehow Thomas, the mob boss, did not want to divorce Megan even though she had asked for a divorce from him several times.

This is what it will be like, Megan will continue to play the role of the ideal wife for Thomas in front of Zalia and her husband's business partners and the monthly payment will still be sent to Megan's account.

" wah .. wah .. wah .. wah .. there are those who are too amazed at marine animals so they are not aware of the presence of the papa " Said Thomas looking towards the bowed Zalia and still busy staring at the sea animals below. Hearing the voice of his father Zaliapun directly looked towards the voice and while running he said ,

" papa ....... "

When Zalia arrived in front of her papa, she immediately embraced the man who had a birthday today.

" his beautiful daughter papa .

Zalia how are you, baby ? "

" Zalia is as healthy as papa can see.

If papa how are you ? "

" if papa's been sick for a few weeks "

Hearing her father's words, Zalia immediately took off her embrace and asked with worry ,

" what pain is it ? "

" papa again sick of tropical malarindu with this spoiled papa child "

" papa, Zalia again seriously papa kidding even "

Sahut Zalia as she wove her lips.

" yes .. yes .. papa apologise yes dear "

Thomas said as he pulled Zalia back into his arms.

" oh, I almost forgot. Happy birthday to my greatest dad . Stay healthy, my dear papa "

" thank you dear "

Seeing the happiness of his master, Alend who was ready with the birthday cake that Zalia bought earlier also approached and said ,

" miss Zalia, this is the birthday cake that Miss bought earlier "

Zaliapun grabbed the cake that had been attached to the candle and had been lit and thrust towards his papa.

" may I continue to be a great father to Zalia ya pa , , happy birthday once again.

Come on pa blown out the candle "

Thomas approached and blew the fifty-five candle out, saying ,

" thank you dear "

After Zalia took a few steps back to give Alend the cake, Megan came forward and hugged Thomas ,

" happy birthday "

" thank you Megan ".

Then Thomas took Zalia and Megan up to the third floor to rest because there were several rooms. After Zalia entered the room Thomas had prepared for her, Thomas escorted Megan to one of the different rooms of the man's room .

At airport , Zayn who just got off his private jet told his assistant to find a restaurant first for lunch after which he was just going to the construction site of his hotel.

While enjoying the dish presented in front of him, suddenly Zayn's eyes glared at two different-age women who had just entered the restaurant. Twenty years passed, but Zayn still remembered the woman's face.

Yes, the woman who killed her mother and sister.
