My Cruel Husband's

Auristella princess Andrean

That was the message Devan sent last time before he left the hospital.

Devan walked quickly out of the hospital and accidentally hit a small child who was pushing a wheelchair occupied by women.

Devan immediately apologized to the little boy. And when the woman in the wheelchair turned her head, they met.

"Lianne..."

"Dev..."

Devan again met his former one night stand friend named Lianne who had also met him while he was on vacation with his family. Now they are reunited with Lianne's condition which Devan noticed was very different from their last meeting. At the moment Lianne is very pale, her eye bags are enlarged and black, she is also unable to walk because she is assisted by a wheelchair. It looks worse now than it was a while ago.

"What actually happened to you? What are you sick with, Lianne?"

Devan was curious because at that time he asked, Lianne did not answer him and instead avoided even though Devan was sure there was something strange from Lianne.

"I have leukemia,"

Devan was silent for a moment. He blinked and saw Lianne's body from top to bottom. That body, it wasn't as straight as it is now. It doesn't look as weak as it is now.

"Hopefully get well soon, Lianne." Said Devan full of concern and spontaneously He rubbed the head of Lianne whose hair is very thin even almost exhausted.

Devan turns to the girl behind Lianne's wheelchair. He smiled at the boy.

"What's your name?"

"Angel, man,"

Devan looked back at Lianne and asked, "He's your son?"

"Yes,"

"Where's your husband? I don't know him yet,"

"He's gone,"

Devan's forehead flinched. The word 'go' contains several meanings. Go to work or go somewhere, leave Lianne for a divorce, or leave Lianne for facing the power.

"We split up after she found out I had this disease,"

Devan sighed softly. Why are there still such men? Leaving children and wives in need of support to cope with illness.

"The reason is just that? She can't afford your treatment or what?"

Devan is too sad and curious about Lianne's life now. Until he forgets the meeting will start soon.

"She's been cheating since the beginning of our marriage. But I always try to keep it all,"

He pushed Lianne's wheelchair up the ranks so that she and Angel could sit down, and they did not speak while standing.

"Until the doctor finally convicted me of leukemia, all my sacrifices to maintain our household I could not continue because I was tired and he was also increasingly asking for separation,"

Devan's heart aches when Lianne is experiencing it all. I can't imagine how hard it is to be Lianne. She must be unhappy with her husband. He survived for his son. Coupled with the presence of the disease, everything made things even more difficult for Lianne. He must make his son happy alone, also must think about his illness.

"I have to go now, Lianne."

"Yes, thank you for hearing my complaint,"

"May there be a miracle from God for you. Don't ever give up, there's Angel who always hopes her mom will get well,"

Lovi just opened his phone after successfully making Auristella sleep. Since then, Auristella was actually sleepy and exhausted but she did not want to stop inviting Lovi to play.

Even her two brothers who had just studied with the tutor were invited to play but unfortunately they were exhausted so refused until Auristella cried.

Lovi just got a message in the form of an image from an unknown person. As soon as she opens, in the photo is her husband and a woman sitting in a wheelchair. The faces of Devan and the woman were not very clear as they seemed to be taken from a great distance. But Lovi remembered her husband's posture and also the work clothes Devan wore when she left for work this morning. The man wears a white horizontal stripe shirt with blue on the line motif.

Devan is seen putting his hand on the woman's head while smiling warmly.

Lovi's forehead flinched for a moment. It enlarges the picture. And his brain wondered. What did that person mean to send a picture like this?

Hoping that he would be jealous and his household with Devan was tinged with commotion? Unfortunately that's not going to happen. Lovi believes in her husband. Seeing Devan close to women, has become commonplace for Lovi. Because Devan's work requires the man to have many relationships and not infrequently female sex. Judging from the background of the photo shoot, it looks like it was in the hospital. And maybe Devan is visiting a relationship or co-worker who is sick. Lovi is used to positive thinking. And the problem of Devan's sweet treatment whose hands appear to rub the woman's head, Lovi also does not feel jealous. People who are sick do need tremendous support and Devan is doing that.

He put his phone on the nightstand, not wanting to bother. Then go downstairs for lunch. It was late in the afternoon that he had not eaten because Auristella made him a playmate. Both of his brothers who finished studying with the tutor had invited him to play but they refused because they wanted to sleep. Auristella was crying because her two sisters were sleeping. Finally he played with Lovi with his red eyes because of crying and sleepiness.

"Lovi, this is Mama's bringing it for you. Mama went to the restaurant and Mama guessed you wanted this,"

Lovi stared at the udon and ebiyaki on the dining table, which Rena had prepared for her.

"Wow thank you, Ma."

Rena and Senata have been waiting for Lovi at the dinner table since. "Definitely long because it accompanied Auris to sleep?"

"Yes, Ma. It was hard for Auris to sleep. Actually, he's sleepy but he's not done playing yet,"

"MOMMYS,"

The three people who had been at the compact dining table turned their heads towards the source of the sound.

Adrian yells to call his Mommy while searching and when entering the dining room, he sees his Mommy smiling while chewing food.

Adrian immediately approached and lay his head on Lovi's thigh. The woman with three children rubbed her hair. This ignorant child has a time to want to be pampered.

"Don't get there his head, Adrian. Mommy is eating," said Senata.

"Yes, Honey. Mommy is eating the fruit" said Rena.

"Let me take a bath of gravy, Grandma." His words made them laugh.

Adrian got up and leaned his cheek on the arm that he put on the table. "Would you eat no?" Lovi asked as he rubbed the child's arm that became the focus of his head.

"Daddy hasn't come home yet?" Adrian asked while looking at Lovi.

"Not yet, there may be unfinished work,"

"I'll eat with Daddy later,"

"Daddy, Mommy has lunch. If you haven't had lunch, have you?"

"Before, before Mommy came from the boutique,"

"Oh so. So, how did you learn?"

"Yes that way,"

"Mommy didn't receive such an answer," Lovi's tone sounded resolute. Making Adrian quickly answer, "All that I do not understand, I asked Uncle Fredy. After that I was taught to understand. I was also given a question that was exactly like yesterday's test and I was able to work on it,"

***

Gana sent the photo she got from the hospital to Arnold.

Arnold called him right away. As he drove off, he picked up the phone from Arnold.

Arnold laughed out loud as the opener, "Where did you get that photo, Boss?" Arnold said with an unfinished laugh.

"I just went to the hospital and found them. My hands are just dirty,"

"I'll send it to his wife,"

"Wow did you manage to find the phone number of that son of a bitch's wife?"

"Easy, despite being kept as strong as his privacy, but Arnold will never give up on getting what he wants. I'm not giving up, Gana."

Gana chuckled at Arnold talking like that. "Yes, that's why I'm sure I'm giving you some help. Because you're reliable,"

"On the end I was used," said Arnold who invited Gana's decak. "I'll help you,"

"Yes, but as I recall in the agreement at the beginning, we worked together to avenge the same man. But why am I always the one who works so hard with my people?"

"Ah you're demanding too much,"

clique

Arnold snarled and threw his phone on the table. "Patience, Arnold. Wait until you can stand on your own, then you can fight. Now is not the time," he hissed with both hands clenched. Gana also has a great sense of annoyance towards Devan just like her. Gana hates Devan because Devan's once-successful firearms and drugs company once refused to cooperate with his company which still stands today. Different from Devan, Gana chose to survive the company that moves to commit the crime. He is still comfortable playing cat-and-mouse with the entire country he targets for distributing firearms in the dark and drugs. Unlike Devan who no longer want to be busy hiding and cheating.

All the costumes that will be used by the nuclear family at the time of Andrean and Adrian's birthday are ready. Lovi will take her to the mansion but before returning home, he took the time to find a tart to be given to them in the middle of the night.

"Thank you,"

Lovi came out of the cake shop with a flowering feeling. Tomorrow is the birthday of her two children. And tonight, he will give the cake as the beginning of the surprise that has been prepared by him and Devan.

All the teachers and their school friends have received written invitations from Lovi no longer just words from Adrian's mouth.

Arriving at the car, he called Devan immediately. "Hallo, Devan."

"Yes, Lov? you done getting your clothes? now you're home, right?"

"Yes, I'm on my way home,"

"Okay, be careful. Have you confirmed everything?"

"I've seen the place, the consumption and everything else."

"Your office is ready?"

"Already, after tomorrow's party, let's take them riding,"

"Surely they are happy. All this time they've been riding on both of our horses. Now have each one, the passport of the horse there, the name is also there, the price is not kidding. Very kind of my wife,"

Since his two children do not have horses, so far if the horse riding always uses his and Devan, then Lovi decided to give them horses from two different countries, accompanied by a passport and his name.

"Your gifts aren't kidding either. Each got a car. Aish this one businessman really does not carelessly give birthday gifts,"

Devan's laughter exploded. Until Ferro who was in front of him squinted in confusion. He and Ferro were talking about work and Lovi suddenly called.

"Can't be arbitrary. For my son it must be special,"

"Okay, I'm closing ya."

"Yes, My love. Bye,"

Adrian and Auristella are playing the hulk together. Today Adrian is being so kind that he lets his sister borrow the remote hulk and run it as she pleases.

"Don't hit the wall, Auris. The price is not that cheap. If he's sick with the wall, how about?"

Auristella was busy pressing the remote. When Adrian directed him, he was angry. He doesn't want to be arranged. Auristella just wants to push the button on the remote.

"I'm telling you, don't hit the wall. Poor thing, the hulk could get hurt,"

"Where can I get hurt? is he human?"

Andrean sneered at his sister. Adrian was busy with the hulk. While he was playing a puzzle with Serry.

"You want to play the hulk so it's chatty all over? here, play." His mouth that likes to piss people back into action. Andrean doesn't really like games like that. I don't know which part makes Adrian very fond of walking robots. Andrean prefers toys that are full of mystery until he has to work hard to solve the mystery. Such as puzzles, puzzles, and others.

Lovi got out of the car and he was grateful that his two children were not in the mansion grounds until the maid could bring in the cake that he bought into the mansion without being seen by them. Because usually every Lovi brings something to the mansion after going out, surely Adrian asked 'What did Mommy bring it?' 'Adrian can see?'

"Where are my two children?"

"In her room, Miss."

"Are you playing?"

"Okay, please bring it inside huh. I go in first" Lovi said, pointing to the cake and robot-themed costumes of the women in the Vidyatmaka family. Because Andrean, Adrian, Raihan, and Devan are ready and stored on the walk in closet from far away.

"Good, Miss."

Lovi immediately went to his room to clean up. While his three children have not realized the arrival of Lovi.

"Mommy where are you? it's been a long time,"

"Yes, Mommy's gone a lot now. What the hell is being done outside?"

"Possessive little master," Lovi approached all of them silently and of course they were shocked. Auristella soared delightedly and she immediately reached out, asking to be carried.

"Mommy where?"

"Go,"

"Yes, I know. But where?"

Adrian who was very anxious asked because Lovi pretended not to understand his point.

"Ah you are too curious. Mommy won't tell,"

Adrian looked at his Mommy with a cold highlight. Seeing that, Lovi chuckled amusedly. Her son really wants to know what Lovi's doing out there. Possessive if you have seen Mommy is busy with the phone and gone too long. Seeing Lovi smile while staring at the phone will also be a problem for her even though Lovi is looking at something funny.

"Tomorrow my birthday, Mom. My gift's ready yet?"

Adrian's hand looked up and it made Lovi smile amusedly. "Mommy doesn't have a gift. Sorry, Sweetie."

Adrkan clucked while holding his chest. "No way! Mommy and Daddy must have a gift for me,"

"Don't want a gift too much. Most importantly Mommy and Daddy are healthy, it's been a gift for us should be,"

Andrean's more mature mindset, it is difficult to accept Adrian. His sister was like a child their age in general. Every birthday wishes a gift from both parents. But for him Lovi and Devan are healthy it's more than a gift.

"Seriously Mommy doesn't have a gift for me?"

Lovi shook his head slowly and put on as sad a look as possible so that his son believed that he did not have a gift. Lovi is teasing his two children.

Adrian breathed out slowly. She immediately hugged Lovi. Lovi thought he was crying but he wasn't. After the hug came off, Adrian smiled at him instead.

"Yes, it's okay. Mommy I can still hug, I'm happy,"

Lovi was touched. He hugged Adrian and he rubbed his head. Didn't expect Adrian would be heartened after being advised by his brother.

"Wow, what's the invitation, Boss? second marriage?"

Devan was eager to throw Dashinta with a stack of files but it did not happen because he was still sane. Dashinta laughed loudly and immediately begged for mercy.

"Both of my children's birthdays tomorrow. Come, don't forget!"

"Ready! what's the gift, Boss?"

Ferro noticed the invitation Devan had just given him. Then he asked the same thing as Dashinta.

"No need for a gift. Just come to feel the happiness of the party,"

"Thank you, Boss for the invitation. But by the way I'm so fired no?"

Ferro held back a laugh as Dashinta asked so. While discussing birthdays, he brought up the matter again. Should he judge for himself is there any sign of Devan firing him?

"You want to get fired?"

"No, Boss. If asked, yes, of course I said no,"

"That's my answer, too,"

Dashinta's release hits Devan's desk until Ferro and Devan are shocked. He was too surprised, happy, and unexpected by the words he had just heard.

"CORRECT, BOSS?!"

"Love, remember who's in front of you?" Ferro insinuated Dashinta whose behavior is bar-bar once. He hit the table in front of the owner of this company. How dare he do it. Ferro shook his head in amazement.

"Sorry, Boss. I don't mean to surprise Boss," Dashinta said as she placed her hands before Devan.

"I was also surprised, lucky that my heart disease did not recur," Imbuh Ferro who invited Dashinta laughter.

"Yes, sorry, Ferro. I was so happy to hear Boss's reply. So until release hits the table,"

Dashinta looked back at Devan and asked reassuringly, "Boss, am I not fired? right, Boss?"

"Yes! Oh, my God, how chatty you are,"

Dashinta is still speechless because he didn't expect Devan not to actually fire him. He is still part of Devan's company.

"You can get out. I'm calling just to deliver an invitation from Lovi,"

"Thank you to the lady who gave me the invitation,"

"Yes, I'll tell you later."

***

Devan was exploring his wife's cell phone after taking a shower. While Lovi is filling his stomach below with his three children.

"Lovi, Devan didn't eat?"

"Still full he said, Ma. Lunch is late in the afternoon,"

"Bad habits" Raihan sneered. Devan was too busy working until he often forgot about his own health. Actually, it was so. But after being old and often sick, he became more concerned about his health. Ambition in terms of work is still there, but not as big as Devan.

"Where is he now? slept?"

"It looks like it is, Pa."

"Mom, Adrian wants it again,"

Lovi immediately grabbed the lobster that was in front of him. Lovi is cooking seafood for dinner at Adrian's request.

He did not want to see his son having trouble opening the lobster skin, so he had to open it. "Mommy's the only one open,"

"Just alas,"

"Later you will be open. That's sharp. Mommy did open it before cooking, but you didn't want to,"

"It's better if there's still skin,"

"Why does it look good to hurt you?"

"Give it to Adrian, Mom. Adrian wants to open it himself,"

"Don't, Adrian. Later on you're hurt, Daddy can get angry" Rena said reprimanding her stubborn granddaughter.

"I'd like to peel myself. It's been handled by Mommy, '" whined Adrian.

"Can't! Mommy again I'm gonna peel.

Adrian was silent no longer forcing. Auristella watched from earlier in the middle of her busy chewing.

"Auris want to?" ask the eldest brother. Auristella looked at Andrean and was silent. "He wants lobster like him, Mom."

"Okay, just a second. Mommy help Adrian first. Andrean wants to add his lobster? let Mommy take off her skin again,"

"No, Mom. That's enough,"

Auristella whines at Andrean when his super-fine food runs out and the plate is empty.

"Still hungry?"

Auristella simply replied with a spoiled whimper. Looks like the portion of the meal this time is less.

"You're growing in weight, Auris."

"It's okay, it's important to be healthy." said Raihan on the speech of Lovi who seduced his daughter.

Lovi immediately asked the maid for help to get Auristella food in the heating device in the kitchen. But when Nay sees her plate and wants to be taken to the kitchen, Auristella cries.

He shook his head while pointing at his plate. Nay returned the plate to the boy. I don't know what Auristella meant, everything was confused.

"You want to add, right?" ask Lovi to make sure. He nodded still with tears.

"Yes, let Nay take it,"

As Nay was about to take another plate, Auristella cried even more.

"Auris, what do you want, honey? He said he wanted more food, it was his turn to take the plate, you were angry,"

"Take it with another plate, Nay." Rena told Nay who was immediately obeyed by him.

"Okay, Madam."

Auristella was lifted by Lovi from her baby chair and rubbed her back. Adrian glanced at his sister cynically. Because Auristella was crying, Lovi delayed peeling her lobster. He wanted the lobster.

"I opened the lobster myself,"

"Grandma's open."

Senata quickly took the lobster whose skin had been half opened by Lovi. He continued to give it to the impatient Adrian.

Nay came again with Auristella's food on another plate. "It's food. Want to eat on this plate or that Auris plate?" ask Lovi.

Auristella surged with her increasingly violent cries. "Aurus!" adrian snapped at his sister who was acting that way.

"Hey, don't be. Your sister's afraid of being yelled at,"

"He's noisy!" Adrian exclaims in annoyance as his Mommy defends Auristella. Senata was done removing the lobster skin, and Adrian quickly devoured it. Auristella provokes the anger of a starving lion. The lion is of course Adrian.

"Auris want what? try telling Mommy, don't cry,"

Auristella hugged Lovi with a loud breath. Lovi rubbed his head gently.

Lovi approached her ear to Auristella's lips, "Whisper Mommy, how will Auristella?"

Auristella pointed at her plate and Lovi nodded, "What is the plate going to do?" lovi asked as she held up the empty Auristella plate.

Then he pointed at Andrean. Lovi flinched for a moment trying to understand his son's wishes.

"Oh want to feed Andrean again like that?"

The brother immediately responded to obey his sister. As Andrean prepared to bribe her, Auristella moved her hands to the right and left while shaking her head. He refused again. Auristella takes her empty plate from Lovi's hand and gives it to Andrean.

"Oh, he wants you to take his food, Andrean. He did not want the food Nay had taken earlier," Raihan quickly understood the grandchild's wishes. Lovi exhaled while shaking his head.

"It's really confusing for this kid. Just give the pring to Andrean since then. Why should we cry all?" muttered Lovi amid the annoyance that actually has been there since then but tried he pendam.

Finally when he saw Andrean rise with an empty plate of Auristella to take Auristella food inside the heating device, Auristella immediately stopped crying.

Lovi dipped her cheek after she wiped away the trail of her tears there. It was really teary-eyed just because it wanted Andrean to take his food, not Nay. The food Nay took was finally ignored by Auristella.
