Chapter 82 - Checkmate Again

Shortly after Bening entered the famous boutique, Stella also followed. Because he also wants to see the latest collection in the same boutique.

When he went inside, he did not find Bening.

"Quickly step the pretentious village girl! Where the hell is he?" batin Stella growled while looking to the right and left to look for Bening.

But he also did not find. Suddenly...

"Eh. uh... Stella's mom is here? Long time no see. How are you?" ask Farah, the boutique owner.

"Good news Farah. It's just more beautiful. I happened to stop by. Again to look at your collection all wholesale. Are there any discounts possible for VIP members like me?" stella's great-grandson smiled at Farah as the two embraced and cipika cipiki typical of women socialites.

"Haha. there must be a discount for Mbak Stella. Come on, Stella please come in first while you look around."

The two of them walked towards the VIP room.

"Tumben Ma'am Stella didn't make an appointment yet" Farah's great-grandson said, letting Stella sit down.

"Yes, I'm sorry I forgot to call first. Understandably returned home vacation from Europe with husband. So it's still jet lag" Stella said deliberately lying.

"Oh, back from Europe. But the feelings ehm..."

"What's wrong, Ma'am?" stella asked who was puzzled to see Farah's reaction.

"It's nothing, Miss Stella. Um, by the way Stella's mom has a double?" ask Farah carefully.

"No. Why, Miss Farah?"

"Sorry before, Sister Stella. A few days ago, I had a chance to see Madam Stella at IGD Hospital X. At that time I was driving my mother who suddenly relapsed late at night."

Degs...

"Is it possible that Miss Farah saw me fainting at Arjuna's help last time from the bar to hospital X?" stella's inner voice rumbled fearing her lie would be exposed.

She did not go on holiday to Europe with her husband Dave. The relationship between the two is strained. Dave is also in Bali not Europe.

Stella believes Farah accidentally saw her on the IGD when she collapsed due to acid reflux. And at that time Arjuna did take her to hospital X.

"Or maybe it's just someone who looks like Stella? Yeah, I guess I guessed wrong. It's unlikely that Stella's mother is in the hospital even though she is on vacation with her husband to Europe. Isn't that Miss Stella?" ask Farah.

"Eh. Yes, Sister Farah. Where could it be me. Mommy Farah must have seen it wrong. Maybe someone similar to me. I went to Europe with my husband on a second honeymoon" Stella's great-grandson stammered a little trying to cover up her lies.

"I'm sorry, Ma'am Stella, I have an appointment with my VVIP subscription. So today Stella will be accompanied by Dina, my best staff here. Next time if you want to be handled with me, Ma'am Stella don't forget to make an appointment with my staff."

"Oh so. Yes, Sister Farah has no problem."

Farah explained to Stella politely. Because every time Stella comes here, Farah always serves her. Stella is a VIP member of her boutique.

"I understand, Ma'am Farah's boutique is getting cool and classy. VVIP subscription mbak must be a great-great and rich man," great-granddaughter Stella pretended to smile even though in her heart was very arrogant because of her at the duakan number.

"Yes, Miss Stella. The daughter of Wayang Wakapolri as well as a famous businessman and his father. The candidate is also from the equally rich. Reportedly the prospective groom will soon rise to the rank of Kombes Pol. One more week they'll be married."

"His daughter and father have been in my boutique for a long time. Usually we come to his house. It's just that now his daughter asked for wedding dress fittings here directly all the way to the mall he said," said Farah.

"Well, cool."

"Yes, Miss Stella. Moreover, the clothes ordered and I designed this special for both of them and it was very expensive. Because the number one premium material has. Just one I designed specifically for them."

"Dina.." call Farah to one of his staff.

"You'll help accompany Stella's sister to see our latest collection. Serve well" said Farah to Dina.

"Good, Mom."

Farah said goodbye, "I'll excuse you, Ms. Stella."

"Please Brother Farah," Stella replied with a faint smile.

"Question also, who is the subscription VVIP Mbak Farah? Who knows, it could be my connection" inner Stella.

During Dina's company, Stella was unhappy. Not because of Dina's bad service. But he was looking for Bening who never met either.

At the same time he feels low if served by staff. Supposedly a class VIP member like himself, Stella who has a sense of pride is quite high of course want the owner of the boutique that handles him directly in private.

As a result, she only bought one casual dress for one million rupiah. That price has not been cut discount.

Stella was actually able to buy clothes that are more expensive than that, only she was a little ogah-ogahan buying expensive clothes because not Farah who took it.

Chequek...

The door of the VVIP room was opened, Farah was out of the room with the woman Stella had been looking for since. Who else if not the Bening.

Farah saw Stella standing at the cashier's desk with her back, so Stella didn't know who Farah was with since.

Farah and Bening walked over to the cashier's desk.

"Mak Stella's done shopping?" great-grandson Farah smiled.

"Yes, Miss Farah."

"Thank you for shopping at my boutique. Hopefully, Stella's husband's business is increasingly successful and soon given a baby," said Farah sincerely.

"Yes, Miss Farah. Thank you for the prayer," Stella replied smilingly.

"Oh yes, introduce this to my VVIP subscription. Her name is Miss Bening who will soon be Madam Arjuna Sabda Mahendra," said Farah introduced Bening to Stella.

Stella looked back.

Degs...

"Mbak Bening, this is Ma'am Stella. He is a VIP member here. Her husband is a businessman" Farah said, introducing Stella to Bening.

Stella was surprised to find that Bening was the daughter of Wakapolri whom Farah had told her about earlier. Even the Bening family is also from among famous businessmen according to Farah's information.

Indeed he never suspected that Arjuna's wife was a woman from the upper class. In fact, you could say he saw Bening who was younger than him so naturally maintained. To say that Bening was beautiful, Stella's sense of prestige still dominated.

With forced Stella also reached out her hand to get acquainted with Bening. The two pretended not to know each other in front of Farah.

"Damn it! Goddamn bum! Again I lost the same cupid woman," Stella's mind grumbled after Bening said goodbye to Farah.

Before Bening left, Farah had given a special gift that was put in a medium box. Wrapped neatly, beautiful, elegant nan. Farah said it was a gift from her for Arjuna and Bening's wedding.

Even Farah gave the gift to Bening in front of Stella. Increasingly makes Arjuna's ex-lover was out of his heart. And Bening only smiled faintly looking at her, while leaving Farah's boutique.
