Mr. Bastard's Love Trap

Time to Take Action

“Mr Aiden is fine. She's indisposed. It's just, sir seems to be having a very heavy mind load.”

Zura. His eyes slowly blinked. Hearing Helios' words made his heart rustle strangely. But that man is a quiet man. Especially when compared to her twin sister, Heris.

A week. It's been a week since Aiden was supposed to go home. Zura had been abandoned on the morning after their first night of marriage. Inwardly, the girl felt relieved, yet her heart was also sliced. Zura just always acted as if she was fine. Although it was possible, in the presence of Helios or others who had known of her status as Aiden's wife, her behavior looked very embarrassing. He doesn't care.

Zura held back. He wanted to ask how Aiden was doing. Come on, he doesn't even have Aiden's phone number. And he doesn't even have his own cell phone yet. And Zura wouldn't ask. He did not want his heart to be seen. At least, although Bi Inah, Pak Awit, Heris, and Helios knew, they did not need to see firsthand that Zura was a little desperate to contact Aiden.

But, hearing Helios' words in fact made his heart raging.

“I.. is just a newcomer.”

Zura's words made Helios, who happened to be finished with her sunbathing activity, now look at Zura.

“Everyone here works for Aiden. And even though you know I'm married to Aiden, we haven't had enough time. The other people in the mansion also did not know clearly about my identity. And most importantly, I am a newcomer.”

Helios looked at Zura with flashing eyes.

“I didn't think about it. Forgive us. We should have been a little more sensitive.” Helios.

“Tak problems. This is not anyone's fault.”

Helios stared at Zura's smile, and he forced a stiff reply.

Yes, now Helios realized further what Zura was thinking. Zura was alone in this mansion. The mansion is still foreign. She's a wife, but people only know that she's Aiden's lover. Helios, Bi Inah, Mr. Awit, or Heris also could not show that Zura was not a mistress, performing a legitimate mistress.

Zura couldn't act recklessly. Then the only thing he did was try to be okay even though the skewed rumors were getting more widespread and demeaning.

“Is there not the slightest intention in your heart to acknowledge yourself as a mistress?” ask Helios.

“I don't know when Aiden will end this marriage.”

That answer left Helios running out of words. There is much he wants to ask. However, he cannot.

“Nona, may I ask you one more thing?”

“One or ten, I never forbid it, Helios.”

Helios hesitated, but the curiosity in her heart was much greater.

“Why don't you contact Mr Aiden first?”

Zura's smile instantly disappeared. Should he tell you the truth?

“Only, I can't reach him. If you are curious about this one, you can ask Aiden.”

Zura then returned a sweet smile on her face.

“Thanks for telling me Aiden's news, Helios.”

...**...

Is it a wedding?

If in general human fantasy, marriage may be living sweet things together. But that didn't happen to Zura. Understanding and managing yourself is very difficult, let alone getting married that requires two people to understand, organize, and understand each other.

Marriage is not always about two people being in harmony. For Zura, marriage is about two human beings who seek harmony together. For it is impossible for two men to be in perfect harmony.

No human is perfect. And getting married makes the two humans who are equally imperfect must be united with each other. Including their shortcomings. The problems they face must increase. The life they build will be full of holes and imperfections. So how do two people keep their lives going?

"I know marriage won't be easy. Moreover, the man I have now married is Aiden Azam Antarest. Not only is it the target of thousands of women, the man is also a person who has a lot of differences with me." murmured Zura softly in between his own time that he enjoyed.

After thinking it over well, who else could do that other than Aiden? The one who could hire a lawyer over him now was only Aiden. Because that man is now Zura's guardian as a husband. The very famous lawyer Hakma is also affiliated with Antarest Group. After all, given what Selen said, Dhika's uncle only investigated the truth of Zura's case after the news began to break out.

"Silence is gold. But fuck that. Silence will only make the situation continue to be chaotic. It might even get worse." Zura. He's back to glaring.

“True. If I just keep quiet, nothing will change.” Mumbled again.

After the conversation with Helios this morning, Zura decided to meet Luci. And here he is now. In a five-star private room restaurant. Waiting Luci. With order food that may now begin to cool.

Chequelek

“Oh! Did you wait long?” luci asked shortly after opening the door.

“No. Did you bring me my new phone?” Zura asked back. Yes, he did ask Luci to buy him a new phone.

“Sure. It's the latest and most expensive model.”

Zura laughs.

“I'll give you a bonus.”

“Alright fine. So, why did you ask me to come?”

“Borrow your phone for a moment, Luci. I'll send you some contacts I need. Including contacts belonging to uncle and Selen.”

Without much questioning, Luci handed over his phone. This is what Zura needs. With this, he could also send out Aiden's number.

“Zura, don't think you can fool me.”

Luci's words made Zura look at him. Luci is his best friend. Best friend he has. The one who would oppose him, but if Zura had already made the decision, Luci was the one who supported Zura the most. I don't know what it is. Good things or crazy things.

So, Zura thought it would be unfair if he shut himself off from Luci. Because Luci had also never covered up any of his problems to Zura.

“Aiden has a problem. And he never came home.”

“What?”

“Aiden left the day after our wedding because of business. He should have gone home a week ago. However, he has a big problem. And somehow, he just never came home.” Clearly Zura.

“I saw Aiden a few times this week, Zura. What do you mean you never came home?” Luci appeared to show his angry face.

“I know Aiden is back. Maybe, he just avoided me.”

“Because of his problem? What kind of problem makes him not want to go home?!”

“Can we discuss this next time. I'm sorry, I just can't tell you now.”

Luci let out a long breath.

“Good. But answer one thing. Are you currently sending Aiden number?”

“Uhuk!!” Zura chokes. Ah, crap! Luci really sucks.

“Really!! I know it! I'll let it go because you said you can't tell me now. But, that doesn't mean I forget about it.” Kecam Luci's.

“Thanks. Now, aren't you tempted to see the food in front of you?”

“Oh shit!! You invited me to this Vuittest Retaurant to bribe it turned out!!”

“Haha, Bingo!!”
