My girlfriend's my best friend's father
CHAPTER 44: Giving up?
"Sarah, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry you got so hurt and held a grudge against me." Robby's sweat dripped off his forehead.
"No need to apologize because I've forgiven you and Ira." Sarah answered expressionlessly, but tears welled up in her eyes seemed to spill.
"Sarah, but I really didn't mean to hurt you, it was all my fault, but I was trapped at that time by Ira. She's..." Robby is stammered and stunned as Sarah cuts her speech.
"Enough. It's too late to explain it all, I don't want to hear anything else about it. I am still hurt, I am still vengeful, but in retrospect what use am I still hurt and vengeful. I don't want your son and Benjo to get married, not because I want revenge, but I just don't want us to be family. Just until here we get to know each other, then I don't want to see you guys anymore and don't want to be in touch with you guys." Sarah wiped her tears which eventually spilled as well.
"West... I beg you, Benjo must take responsibility for his actions." Robby tries to persuade Sarah that Benjo will be responsible for the child who is now in Anita's womb.
"Don't I ever tell your son that if Benjo wants to be responsible, he has to have complete parents, you know who my husband is? My husband is the most respected official in this country, if you have a daughter-in-law whose parents are not intact, then what do the public and media say? After all, you and Ira will be in the spotlight later, are you ready?" Sarah's voice is high on Robby.
"Can't the marriage just be hidden? The important thing is that Anita's child has a father." Robby goes to great lengths to persuade the still stubborn Sarah.
"Please go, I'll send a messenger from our family to take care of Anita's needs, and we'll send the boy to school until graduation." Sarah persists and drives Robby out of her house.
"No need, I can take care of the kid myself. I'm sorry if I ever hurt you before, but know that all the deeds your son did will surely get a reward worthy of God." Robby seemed very angry and felt his pride trampled.
"So much as you and Ira do, I'll make sure you get a fair reply." Sarah leaves Robby in the living room by herself.
He then contacted Lia, his girlfriend who is now missing without news and is very difficult to contact. Regardless of what he has to do to repair his relationship with Lia and his daughter, he is now only eager to meet Lia.
"Driver, take me to Lia's house, I have to go there. You guys can go back to the office after delivering me, I'll go home by myself." Robby is then escorted by his driver to Lia's house, at this time he is so eager to meet with Lia.
"Sir, how about we put a little threat on their families?" The advice of a staff member suddenly.
"meaning? In what way?" Ask Robby.
"We're giving them a little threat, if they don't get their child married soon, then the media will know this news." Hearing the advice of a staff member Robby seemed to almost agree, but then he paused.
"Don't, if you use it that way I think they'll threaten us back. You know, I also have relationships with many large companies, if this news spreads widely in the media, then my company will also be affected." Robby explained to his staff.
"Okay sir, sorry I didn't think it was there."
"It's ok. I appreciate your advice, but I don't rule out other possibilities, if there's a better way, let me know right away." The conversation was closed and the atmosphere in the car was so quiet even though many people were in it. Robby's mind drifted somewhere thinking about the future of his daughter and future granddaughter.
