Marleen woke up from her sleep. He felt cold and pulled a blanket to cover his naked body. The room is so big and luxurious. He sighed in his heart, feeling so unfortunate because he was trapped in a situation that he could not avoid. Rendra was no longer there when he turned his head to the place beside him. Maybe he's gone to work, that's how Rendra he knows. Act as he pleases. He did not even bother to ascertain Marleen's circumstances or feelings.
"Are you happy, sleeping with my sister?"
Marleen's head turned quickly to the figure of the girl who stood haughty in the doorway.He was wide-eyed to see the girl standing there. Her face was indeed charming, but the cynical grin made the beauty slightly polluted.
"What are you doing here?“ cetus Marleen is cold, she does not need to be friendly to someone who has changed away from friends she knew long ago.
They had indeed been best friends, but that was before.whether since when their relationship stretched, maybe since the Marleen family began to decline. Since then, Lia's attitude has changed. The girl became even colder and mysterious. Marleen hardly knew him anymore.
"Wake you up of course."
The girl walked lightly, her expensive high heel shoes looking glittering when in the sunlight. He sat on a chair with luxurious carvings then folded his legs in a haughty position typical of princesses.
"I see you're so slumbering.“ He glanced at Marleen's condition with a condescending look. "You are of course very happy after successfully becoming the daughter-in-law of the Fernandez family. You need a lot of money. There's not much you can do but sell yourself. You're lucky that my brother is willing to accept you even though he knows you won't be loyal."
Marleen glared, offended by his words.he wanted to reply, but did not find the appropriate words and could make the haughty girl fixated. Although her heart ached, but the girl's words were true, she did need a lot of money to pay off her family's debts.
No one knows, not even his friends that the Marleen family is in considerable debt. They cover it tightly to maintain family dignity. His parents even had to flee abroad to avoid that fact from being revealed. Marleen's parents decided to sell her to Fernandez's family, and Marleen had no choice. If he refuses the offer, his parents will go to jail. Because being the son-in-law of the Fernandez family is the fastest and easiest way.
"What exactly was your purpose here, Lia Fernandez?" cynical Marleen Cibir.
Lia smiled slanted and then got up. Her white silk dress fluttered when she woke up.
"I've seen Azri El Pradipta last night, he's a very handsome man," he muttered with a glaring look of adoration, as if Azri was really in front of him.
Marleen's eyes widened, she quickly looked at Lia sharply. "You don't intend to harass her, do you?"
Lia turned her head then giggled amusedly, "Marleen, Marleen, what makes you that scared? You've got my brother. And I'm just asking you to investigate Azri, which is why you've been approaching her all this time."
Marleen pursed her lips, at a loss for words and regret. It should not have been necessary to agree to Lia's request, despite the desperate circumstances. Had he refused, his feelings would not have been this chalky. He will not fall in love with Azri, nor will he get any humiliation from Rendra or Lia.
"You like her? You fell in love with her?” ask her slowly full of threats.
Marleen lowered her head, unable to nod or shake her head. If allowed he wants to shout that he is indeed in love with the man. However, Lia's intimidating look made her mouth tightly clenched.
Lia sneered at Marleen's reaction. He glared at her. "I told you to investigate, not fall in love with her!"
Lia's voice echoed throughout the entire room. The girl was furious. Lia took a deep breath and then turned around.
"Now let me finish everything."
Marleen flinched, quickly she shouted preventing. "No, you can't mess it up!"
Lia stopped and turned her back. "Why? His father promised to set us up. After all, Azri couldn't possibly reject me with a face like this,“ he said with a proud tone, but full of intent. la thought Marleen would remain silent, she said, but the little laugh that came out of Marleen's lips made Lia flinch.
"Why are you laughing?"
"You're wrong, Lia. Azri won't fall in love with you even with that pretty face of yours."
Marleen's gaze met with Lia's eyes. The girl soared as this was the first time Marleen had looked at him full of determination and conviction. "She's already in love with another girl, Widya Lovarza. She'll never look at you even if you're the last woman in the world."
Lia flabbergasted. Of course he knew it because last night he saw for himself how Azri kissed the woman named Widya with passion and love, but he tried to ignore it. Thanks to Marleen for warning him about Widya. He grinned back.
"Then all I have to do is get rid of Widya Lovarza" he said briefly and then walked away from the room.
Marleen's face turned deathly pale instantly. He must immediately warn Azri of Lia's intentions. Several times he had tried to meet the man to tell him, but he had always lost his nerve at the end. The reason is simple, because he has not wanted to part with Azri. He was also afraid that Lia would turn to attack him. Not afraid to hurt the people who bother him.
As far as she knew, Lia always got what she wanted. Widya's life is in danger.
