Love the Illiterate Girl

Who's Hector

Chapter 63

Preparation for the inauguration of HKG COMPANY has reached 80%, Mala and Bimo are busy to take part in the preparation of that course. In a building that is conjured into a party venue, Mala wants everything to look perfect. So that when Hector and Jasmine arrive, he does not disappoint Hector's trust in him.

For Mala it's a challenge, to do something new that has never been started. Luckily Hector is a good person, as well as putting Bimo beside him who will guide Mala in this automotive company.

‘’How, are you satisfied with the preparation Mala ?”

‘’Sure Bimo, without you I wouldn't be able to move this far."

‘Relax Mala, me and Felicia will always be beside you.’’

Mala and Bimo smiled with satisfaction as their preparations were now almost complete. 

“Let's go home, Felicia must have been waiting for us and cooked good food too.’’ Take Bimo to Mala after he feels there is nothing more to do.

‘’You are, is it just food that is in your mind?’’  

‘’Of course I miss my wife, Mala. Miss her cooking and miss ..’’ Bimo hung up his sentence and it made both of them laugh.

They did not realize, a pair of eyes were watching them with a sad look.

The two headed to the parking lot, and climbed on top of the car that took them home to his apartment. A blue car, following from behind that they were still unaware of. In the car they were busy discussing the plan to inaugurate the new company owned by Mala. And make sure everything without a single one left behind.

In the apartment, Felicia was waiting with a menu of dishes that were a lot on the dining table. After cleaning up the two then joined Felicia at the dinner table.

‘’Hmmmm, very tempting menu.’’ Mala said while inhaling the aroma of the dishes Felicia had made for their lunch.

‘’Come we eat.’’ Take Felicia on the two while spooning rice to her husband's plate alternately for Mala. They ate so well that there was no leftover.

‘’What a pleasure your cooking, dear.’’

‘’Ya Felicia is good at cooking, someday I want to learn to cook with you Felicia.’’

‘’Sure Mala, I'll gladly do it for you.’’  Felicia said sincerely.

‘’How is the company inauguration plan today?”

“Very perfect Felicia, I want to invite you to buy a dress for the inauguration night of our company later.’’

‘’True, can I join you later.’’

‘’Of course Feli, you are Bimo's wife. And you do deserve to go with Bimo later.’’

Felicia hugged her husband without feeling embarrassed again in front of Mala.

“Thank you dear.’’

‘’Do not thank me, thank Mala, my dear.’’ Bimo kissed Felicia's cheeks and made Felicia's white cheeks become reddish due to a shy blush.

‘’Tomorrow I will take you both, to the famous boutique in this city. So that all guests do not blink to see the beauty of my two angels.’’ 

Bimo's words made Mala and Felicia laugh happily.

“Alright, I trust you all tomorrow Bimo.’’ Mala tidied up all their dirty dish marks. Bimo and Felicia return to their apartment. Mala gave a small smile at the behavior of this newlywed couple. Both of these couples are enjoying their honeymoon. The time they spend is only in their apartment.

Today Mala and Felicia have prepared and dressed up. They have promised to visit the famous boutique in the city.

‘’Are you guys ready?’’ Bimo came and approached them in the parking area of their apartment.

‘’Sure, let's go.’’ The three then drove a car driven by Bimo, to a luxury boutique that Bimo has made sure this boutique will provide beautiful clothes for these two women.

‘’Are you sure this is Bimo button?’’ Felicia looked inside the glass walls of the boutique they were visiting right now. Felicia can't believe the boutique her husband is referring to is the boutique of all the high-class women in the city. Felicia was a little uncomfortable standing there.

Without hesitation Mala flanked Felicia's hand and led her into the boutique. Felicia's eyes did not blink a bit, looking at the dress on display inside the boutique. While looking at the dress, Felicia peeked at the price of a peach-colored dress, looking elegant and elegant according to him. But how surprised Felicia was to see such a fantastic number on her price tag. Soon he decided to look to the other side.

Mala smiled, and picked up the dress that Felicia was already holding.

“Feli.’’

“Iya Mala.’’

‘’Come here.’’

‘’What's up?’’ Felicia approaches Mala, thinking that Mala may be in need of her help.

‘’Come we try this dress.’’ Felicia thought Mala liked the dress she had chosen earlier.

Once in the dressing room, Mala gave the dress in her hand to Mala.   

Felicia looked at Mala, long she was glued. 

‘’Try .’’ Mala's orders to Felicia.

‘’But Mala.’’

“Please don't refuse my wish.’’  

Without saying anything Felicia obeyed Mala's orders. She immediately went inside the dressing room and tried on her dress.

‘’You are so very pretty with this dress Feli.’’

‘’All will be amazed to see you later.’’         Felicia smile.

‘’Now we will find your choice Mala.’’

Both are engrossed by looking at the most beautiful dresses there. After everything was paid, Bimo took them home. 

The anticipated night of the inauguration has arrived, Mala and Felicia have prepared. Bimo couldn't stop staring at his wife's beauty in a fancy dress wrapped around her body. Mala's appearance is also no less beautiful, a long red dress covers all parts of her body, with a jewel ornament on her arm. Looks charming to him. 

‘’I feel like I'm picking up an angel who came from heaven tonight. Looks like I got an extra job in order to keep my two nymphs from being in a cat's garong bullies for them.’’ Mala and Felicia laughed at Bimo's words.

”Let's go to Bimo, or we'll be late later.’’ Felicia invites Bimo to immediately go to the inauguration place of their company. 

All the invitees' eyes were on the company owner tonight.    The luxury emanated from the dress she was wearing made everyone who saw her cluck in awe.  Unceasingly their mouths praised her beauty. Bimo was seen faithfully accompanying the two beautiful women beside him.

The festivities of tonight's inauguration party were shocked by Hector's arrival. All eyes were on him too. The whispers of the invitees who questioned the status of the handsome man who entered the party room.

‘’Who is he?’’

No one knew who Hector was, in the hearts of each of the invitees present asked in his heart. Who is the foreign man standing in the middle of them right now.

A pair of male eyes were observing all the invitations that had been present in the room. Her eyes were fixed on a beautiful and graceful woman wrapped in a red dress, but wait a minute.

‘’ Why does the foreign man dare to bring his affair come here.’’

‘’I'll teach him a lesson.’’ He muttered as he walked up to the man and the two beautiful women beside him.

‘’Goodnight miss Mala.’’

Mala turned her body and saw who greeted her. A man he never wanted to see again in his entire life. But he was always around him .  Mala who returned the greeting with a forced smile. Makes the man a little misbehaved with his response.

Bimo grinned towards Cristian. Making Cristian's heart more upset, and more confident want to dismantle the mask of a foreign man in front of him. More upset Cristian heart saw Bimo's hand holding the hand of a beautiful woman beside him without Mala's knowledge.

Cristian then took his cell phone, and took a picture of it. For Mala to open her heart to the rottenness of her husband. But in his heart Bimo laughed amusedly with Cristian's behavior. Finally Bimo began to realize that Cristian still had a very big taste in his heart for Mala.

But Bimo did not want to be rash, he wanted to pay attention to everything more deeply. To convince him more. And Mala, Bimo knows he's hiding his feelings so that no one knows.

‘’Goodnight ladies and gentlemen, thank you for being present at the inauguration night event of HKG COMPANY, which will be pioneering new ventures in the country. I am Hector Gerardo, who will be in charge of this company. But my brother Mala Kurniati is in control of this company. “

The more words spoken by Hector on the podium made Cristian's head more dizzy. What's Mala's relationship with Hector. How could he entrust HKG COMPANY to Mala. Hector also has a special relationship with him.

The boisterous applause of the audience shocked Cristian. Hector's mark has finished his speech on the podium. Slowly Hector stepped down from the top of the podium, heading to where Mala and his partner were standing. The prickly shoes among the audience began to sound like the sound of bees in their hives.

But Hector did not care about it, and approached Mala, then hugged her and gave each other his cheeks releasing the longing between them. Bimo approached them both. Then introduced his wife Felicia to Hector.

‘’Your mother did not choose a wife for you, Bimo.’’ Hector seduces Bimo, and the temptation manages to make Felicia blush in embarrassment.

They miss each other tonight, by talking a lot. Exchanging news to let go of Mala's longing for Magda's aunt and Margaret's aunt.

‘’They are fine Mala, no one you need to worry about.’’ 

‘’Good then, I really miss them a lot.’’ Mala was sad.

 ‘’It's Mala, the more you think about it the more you'll be sad. It's a party for us.    No time to be sad, let's enjoy our party.’’ Hector tries to persuade Mala not to get dissolved in her grief. Mala nodded in agreement with Hector's words.

‘’Then where is Jasmine, did she not come with you here?’’ Mala had not seen Jasmine in this room. His eyes swept across the room, but the figure he longed for did not reveal the trunk of his nose.

Hector smiled happily, it turned out that Mala also missed his wife.

‘’Jasmine is resting in hotel room. She was not feeling well, so she decided to take a rest first. And told me to come alone to the inauguration tonight without her.’’  Hector explained to Mala that Jasmine also missed him a lot.

‘’The end of this Jasmine is easy once feel tired. It would be better if he just rested. Because if he forces himself too much his emotions will explode. I don't understand by its nature this end.’’ Hector added it again.

‘’Have you checked with the doctor?” it seems Mala suspects something with Hector's remark. But he did not want to rush to guess again.

Hector shook his head.

‘’Jasmine don't want to go to the doctor, Mala,’’

‘’Alright I will try to persuade him later.’’    Mala said that looks very attentive according to Hector's heart.

‘’After this event let's go to the hotel where you are staying, I want to meet Jasmine.” Mala said enthusiastically, while Bimo and Felicia looked at each other to see Mala's behavior that looked impatient again. And that's not what it used to be, for both of them.

‘’We will come along with you.’’ Bimo told Hector and Mala. 

‘’Ya sure Jasmine will be happy to see you guys also want to meet you.’’  Hector also felt happy that the three people before him were already considered as brothers to him.

It is like this to feel like having a brother. Although bloodless but caring for each other and sincerity will mem, make the heart happy. After the loss of Mama Laurent and Kenny at least they are in lieu of losing their loved ones in Hector's heart.

 At the end of the room, Cristian's eyes continued to notice the closeness of the four people with a feeling that could not be muted again.  The anger in Cristian's heart grew more and more, seeing them laughing happily there. 

‘’Is master Hector Gerardo your partner Mala, is he the source of your wealth now?’’   Many questions arose in Cristian's heart. The more he could not distinguish Bimo or Hector who became Mala's current partner.

The banquet was getting crowded, as the clockwork indicated the time was almost midnight. The event guide began dimming the room lights and turning the party room into a crowded one. With Dj music. All the invitations scattered to the middle of the room, began to contort their bodies, enjoying the festive atmosphere of the party at this time. 

Cristian could not control himself. He picked up a full glass of wine brought by a waiter. And started drinking it out without any leftovers. His heart felt chaotic, seeing the closeness of Mala with a foreign man in the other corner of the room. He and Mala had never felt such closeness before.

‘’This party is getting crowded, how about we go back home?’’ Take Mala to Bimo, Felicia and Hector. Approved by Felicia who is not used to the excitement of a party like this. The thundering dj music inside the room made his head dizzy. So was Mala, so she took the initiative to ask to go home.

‘’Alright let's go home, we will go directly to hotel.’’

The four of them left the pasta place. Mala chose to drive Hector's car. The driver was ready to take them to the hotel where Jasmine was resting. Their car drove towards the hotel.

Bimo and Felicia used their own cars. But a little problem occurs, Bimo car can not be turned on.’’

‘’Why with his car dear?’’ Felicia seemed worried to see her husband try to turn on the car engine but never succeeded.

‘’Ngot know too dear, let me try to see there may be damage in our car.’’ Bimo got out of the car and opened the hood of his car and checked the state of his car that currently does not want to live.

While in the party room Cristian eyes looking for the figure of Mala who was no longer in the room. Hector and Bimo are also missing .

‘’Where do they go?’’

‘’ In this case how can I get more evidence, in order to be able to dismantle the cover of the foreign man.’’  Cristian staggered a bit towards the parking lot. 

 There he finds Bimo repairing his car. Cristian kept watching. Which surprised Cristian, when Bimo finished by fixing his car. Mala's face was not visible in her car, but the woman's face was thought to be Bimo's affair.

Soon Cristian got into his car and followed where the foreign man's car was so hated by him. 

‘’ Dare once you play with Mala's heart, I will make sure you will part with Mala as soon as possible.’’ Cristian continued to curse him and followed the speed of Bimo's car from behind.

Hector's car had arrived in front of the entrance of the Hotel where Jasmine was staying. Hector allowed Mala to follow him, enter the elevator and hit the number nine. Where their rooms are.

In room 9011 Hector opened his bedroom door.  She slowly entered the room. Jasmine may have fallen asleep, he thought. But the assumption was wrong, in the spacious luxurious room, on the king-size bed Mala saw the figure of Jasmine who was sitting leaning on her bed while watching television.

‘’Jasmine.’’ Mala shouted, and ran over to Jasmine. And Jasmine was jumped in shock, seeing the arrival of Mala in this room, Hector did not tell her at all. 

Jasmine looked happy, then hugged Mala tightly. 

“I miss you, mala but tired and nauseous queasiness hurts me. So I can't attend the inauguration of your company.’’

‘’Iya Jasmine, I'm glad I can start a new business here and plan to open another new company. All of which I dedicate to the Gerardo family who have been very kind to me. Therefore I chose HKG group for my new business name.’’

‘’HKG is Hector and Kenny Gerardo. I dedicate it all to the Gerardo family. Which has changed my life for the better. And the Gerardo family all love me like his own brother.’’

Jasmine hugged Mala, and shed her tears.

‘’I and Hector have heard the story of your past that is so painful Mala. You deserve to be happy for the future.’’ Jasmine was overwhelmed, just a while ago when Bimo contacted those who were in Mexico. Bimo tells all the stories of Mala's past that made her fragile for a while.

‘’Thank God you are strong and good is fine Mala.’’

‘’Of course I am strong Jasmine, I must be strong because you guys love me.’’

Hhmmmpptttth 

Jasmine closed her mouth and ran towards the bathroom.

‘’What are you okay with Jasmine?’’ Mala looked worried from inside the bathroom as if Jasmine was vomiting vomit, and did not let anyone in to accompany her.

Meanwhile, Bimo's car has entered the parking area of a luxury hotel where Hector and Jasmine are staying. The two joined hands in a friendly way into the hotel lobby towards the receptionist. And ask Hector and Jasmine's room. After getting directions from the receptionist both got into the elevator, heading to the 9th floor.

Cristian saw the elevator they entered, and followed them through the other elevator. The 9th floor also.

‘’Tonight, I'll expose your rotten foreign man fucker. You married Mala, but brought another woman into the hotel.’’ Cristian's heart was hot, because of the stranger's actions. Cristian did not want anyone to hurt Mala.She continued to follow her steps, looking for a hotel room that was intended by a pair of people who were having an affair.

A room numbered 9011 is slightly open. Making Cristian's eyes moved to peek at him.

The woman and the man she had just followed were in the hotel room, sitting on a guest sofa. They seem to be making out inside. Without thinking any longer, Cristian entered without permission into the room, approaching a pair of humans who behaved shamefully for him.

With a staggering step, as a little drunk Cristian approached the stranger.

THE BUUUUKKKHHH BUUUUKKKHHH

Three times Bimo was attacked by the drunk man, until a loud screaming voice called out his name.

‘’CRISTIANNNN.’’

The man looked towards the door of the hotel room.

‘’Mala.’’ 

After saying the name Mala Cristian fell to the floor unconscious.
