Loving Brother-in-law

Legacies

Sapid... Print.... Sapid....

Darma's fingers were busy jerking over his desk, a serious facial expression that never came off, an old but sharp-edged gaze. He sat there waiting for the man he had invited that morning.

"He has come, sir" said Bayu bowed.

"Send him in!"

"Well" Bayu turned around to allow his guests to enter.

Before long the neatly dressed man appeared and sat down before him, his face trying to relax despite his misgivings.

"Good Morning, Mr. Darma, sorry to have kept you waiting because I have business to do..."

"I don't need your excuses" Darma said, cutting off Noval's conversation.

"Well, what did Mr. Darma call me here?"

Without answering Darma immediately threw a file in front of Noval. "Sign! After that you can get out of here"

Noval opened and read the written contract shortly afterwards... "How do you agree, don't you?" Darma asked staring intently.

"What do you mean I have to obey Riyu, shouldn't she be the one who obeys me!" Noval said.

"Because it's a different matter, son, Ryu is the official holder while you're just her useless husband. Don't worry about you still being Riyu's legal husband, you can just as easily rule the company!"

Noval clenched his hands, while Darma deliberately scratched Noval's status. "I've agreed to take Riyu to Singapore with doctor Lukman, even if you're not fit to replace the company's presedent position." Darma got out of his chair and stood staring at the window.

"Wood!" said Darma with a firm tone, at once Bayu was present in front of him.

"Yes sir" said Bayu bowed.

"The next day I'll go for Riyu's operation, you keep an eye on everything lest outsiders step foot in Galuh's company... He is Ryu's husband!" darma clearly said.

"Your Master" replied Bayu.

"Noval you can sign the contract, then leave it to Bayu. I don't want to waste my time too long" said Darma who immediately rushed out of his room.

Irritated, Noval had to obey Darma's orders and agree to a written contract. After scratching his signature Noval immediately went to leave the file without saying goodbye to Bayu who was standing next to him.

*****

Brakkk.... Hard kick landed on Noval's desk.

"Damn! You old fucking jackass! He really embarrassed me. It turned out not to be as easy as I had imagined, but for the time being there was nothing I could do but obey that same old jackass!"

Then came a man from outside because he heard the noise from inside Noval's room. "What's going on?"

Noval quietly set her breath.

"Noval, are you sick? Your face looks very pale, let's go to the hospital" said Nita panicked.

"No ma, I'm fine"

"Then what happened to you?" Nita urges him to know what happened to Noval, but Noval just stares at him.

"OKAY. So this is how you're doing now? You're covered up and you're hiding your problems from your mama!"

Noval took a long breath. "Ma. I'm an adult, I'm going to face my own problems. Okay" Noval assures Nita.

"Call..."

"Do you have time now? Meet me at the usual place, there's something I want to talk to you about" Mumbir said from across the street.

Noval immediately turned off the conversation, reached for his suit, and went straight to meet Mumbir. No need to take a long time Noval can immediately find Montrol in her favorite place.

"What are you calling me"

"Hey son you look upset" Mumbur smiled crimped his eyebrows.

"I'm just a little tired, tell me what you want!" Noval said in a reluctant tone.

"How far have you come into Galuh's family? I hope the results don't disappoint"

Hearing the question Mumbir Noval immediately let out a long sigh. "Are you impatient? I've been trying but Darma really makes it hard for me! Even he gave me a contract that I should not replace the president even if Riyu is not around!"

Mawil looked at Noval closely. "Hm. I understand your problem, indeed Mr. Darma is a very difficult person to deal with, then what about Riyu"

"He will leave for Singapore the day after, somehow for a long time but for now this wait is the right way. When he forgets his memories later, I'll just start controlling him again" Noval's evil grin is again painted on his lips.

Gradually nodded as if impatiently waiting for Noval's plan to be relaunched. "Master Minstill. You're pretty close to Galuh, aren't you? What do you know about the family?" Noval deliberately provoked Mumbir, because he knew there was something that Mumbir wanted very much, otherwise he would not insist on attacking back.

"Noval you need to know... My father used to be Galuh's foster father when he was expelled by Darma, but my father's affection for Galuh really made me jealous. You love Galuh even more than me!" gradually, his gaze straight forward glanced to the past. His hands began to clench, while Noval was still listening closely.

"Dad has the rest of the diamond mine that until now I do not know the location and position, he instead bequeathed the map and also the mine to Galuh!"

"What?? Diamond mines?!" Tanya Noval couldn't believe it.

"Yes. Diamond mines. I tried to persuade my father, even against him because he was being unfair. But still Dad didn't tell me, I also tried to convince him, trap him, even sneak into his residence and office but still I still haven't found the map"

"It's fair that Galuh is so rich in this town, so that's why you killed him?" Noval looked sharply.

"Yes! I finished him off in annoyance"

"Fraudulent! Because you're careless so you can't get anything right now" Noval deliberately mocked Mumbil.

"Hemhs. But I'm not worried because there's you right now" Montrol's gaze turned to Noval.

"What do you mean?!"

"You... You're now in Galuh's family, without me having to explain you'd know what I want!"

"Hemh what's your guarantee?!"

"If you manage to get information about that diamond mine, I'll give you 35!"

Noval stared silently at Mumbar, after which he stuck out his hand "Deal?" Noval.

"Deal" replied Mumbir welcomed Noval's hand office with confidence. The two look at each other.

"Alright Mr. Mumbir, I think our discussion is over. I have to go now"

"Yes, please Noval" said Mastir, looking at Noval who began to walk away.

"Don't worry Noval, once I get what I want, I'll give you the same gift as Galuh. Fair isn't. I'm just using you, while on the other hand I've actually far stepped into launching my plan on a trusted person in the Darma residence. Just waiting for the right time" Mumbar grinned. Not long after, he left his seat.
