Love is Noiseless

Chapter 44's

Layla is enthusiastic about seeing a new home that she thinks is much better than the old one. In size, the parlors were now much wider than before. For the building, the situation is also better because of the old parlors that have never been renovated for the renewal of facilities. Foundations do not want to waste money on land that they obviously would not have.

On some sides, Layla saw there was construction going on. According to her sisters who had accompanied Layla, there were still many new facilities being built for them. The innocent children seemed happy with the new place. They found a new home, leaving the old house cramped for 67 children. If in the old place they sleep crowded in the room, in this new place they have their own mattress. Even now there are two buses that become inventory of the parlors that are ready to take them back and forth to school every day.

Layla was happy to see the joy of her sisters. She even wanted to meet Dinan right then and thank him for the kindness of her husband. When Layla wants to see Ms. Irma in her office, Layla hears a male voice she can recognize as Richard's. The conversation inside was very serious, making Layla undo the intention to enter. Layla chose to stand outside, looking at the children of the parlors who had gone home from school playing in the park.

After a while, Layla heard the sound of the door of Ms. Irma's room open, the girl did not turn her head, she still saw her sisters in the yard there.

“You like this new place?” ask Richard.

“The place is good, sir. The kids really liked this place,” Layla replied without turning her head.

“Pak Dinan has been very good to you, right? He kept his promise well,” Richard casually said.

“Iya, Sir. I am very grateful to him. Every day that I see from him is just his attitude and kindness to me and today to the children of the orphanage.”

Richard laughed out loud. This time Layla turned her head because she did not like to hear Richard's laughter sounding mocking.

“What's wrong with my remark, Sir?” ask Layla with annoyance.

“You want to thank me? Are you kidding me? All you did was hurt Mr. Dinan, including you met the man again. Do you think I didn't see it before I got here, Layla?” asked Richard cynically. Richard did see Layla and Bayu meet at the cafe. His car stopped in front of the cafe while waiting for the red light to turn green.

Layla gulps. “I just wanted to ask him not to see me again, sir. That's all I do because I prefer Mr. Dinan,”ucap Layla honestly.

“And you think I believe? women like you are really troublesome, always give up on saving yourself.”

“I'm honest, sir, I really asked him not to bother me anymore,” Layla said in a slightly raised tone.

“As far as you are, I am now just curious about Mr. Marc, for some reason he still maintains you as Mr. Dinan's wife.” Richard again scares Layla.

“Means, Father?”

“If me and Dinan know you met another man. Do you think Mr Marc doesn't know? He failed to marry three times, and betrothed Dinan to the wrong woman as well. Do you think he didn't keep an eye on this son-in-law to guard his son's heart?” richard asked intimidatingly, “Master Marc is always a step ahead of me and Dinan. Including about yourself, therefore Mr. Dinan did not accept Mr. Marc's advice in solving the land problem. Mr. Dinan is tired of always being in the shadow of his father.”

Layla instantly became limp. Does Mr Marc know he's walking alone with Bayu?

“Just wait for your part, Layla,” Richard's voice is relaxed, but enough to make Layla swallow, “I have to go back to the office, don't forget the delicious dinner cuisine for Dinan,” said Richard before passing away leaving Layla covered in fear.

The girl was made out of her mind by Richard's words just now. If Mr. Marc knew that, his fate would be exhausted. The man would definitely not give him any apologies. Layla was silent for a long time thinking about it all. For then one of her sister's screams that was playing made Layla aware of the situation. He rubbed his eyes that felt sore. Then turn around to enter Ms. Irma's room.

“Excuse me, Mom!” sapa Layla approached Ms. Irma.

The woman raised her head, “Eh, Layla, finally came too, I guess you don't know our new place,” said Ms. Irma, she closed her book.

“I don't know, Mom. My own husband chose this place,” said Layla half-joking—even though he actually knew the place was not from Dinan.

“Pak Dinan choose a nice and comfortable place, La. You are the same Mr. Dinan? Is there no problem in your marriage?” asked Ms. Irma in a probing tone.

Layla shook her head slowly, “Pak Dinan is really a good person, Mom,” said Layla with enthusiasm, “She often cooks her own breakfast if I wake up late, he was also not spoiled and asked me to prepare all his needs. She did tell me to do the homework, but when I was negligent, she wasn't angry and willing to do it herself. He's understanding, Mom. Even yesterday she took care of me when I was sick.”

"What pain, La?" asked the worried-looking Ms. Irma.

"Just a fever, Buk."

Ms. Irma was relieved to hear Layla's explanation. Worries from the beginning about Layla's marriage have now been treated. In fact he only asked with one sentence, then Layla explained at length. It was enough to explain that Layla was comfortable with her marriage.

“Then what's your job? Isn't it too burdensome for you with the status of a director's wife?” ask Ms. Irma again.

This time Layla shook her head, her face slightly changed. Will Dinan someday admit himself as a wife in front of everyone?

“No, Mom, everything went smoothly,” replied Layla, “oh, yes, Mom. By the way did Mr Dinan or Mr Richard ever see Mom to ask about something?” ask Layla.

Ms. Irma threw her face away, she seemed a little nervous discussing the matter. There was a long time lapse when Richard came out until Layla came into the room. So Miss Irma doesn't know that Layla saw Richard there.

“Mother confused, La. They ask about which mother does not know,” complained Miss Irma.

“At least give them information that mom knows. That will help Mr. Dinan to get the land, ma'am. Moreover, their opponents were the Barata family. They are the ones ..”

“You know the Barata family, La?” ma'am Irma quickly interrupted Layla's sentence. His face panicked there.

“They are famous families, Mom. When I didn't know about them, their business spread abroad. But for some business people, their families are known to be bad for business competition is not that healthy.”

“La, avoid them, do not interfere with Mr. Dinan's affairs that allude to them. They are the bad guys, La,” said Ms. Irma who looked increasingly worried.

Layla smiled as usual. “Mother take it easy, Mr. Dinan can definitely cope with them, for that mother needs to give Mr. Dinan the information he needs.”

“All this is complicated, La, I do not want to be involved, including you, do not follow their problems,” said Ms. Irma.
