Perfect Wife Azraell

Chapter 22: Amsterdam, Netherlands

"I'm sorry I'm going to trouble mom and dad to take care of Aileen in the next few days. Because Azra and I are not home, no one will accompany Aileen." Dareen said politely, having discomfort in her heart to Veryana.

"Why are you sorry?" Veryana asked while rubbing Aileen's hair who was hugging Dareen. Before continuing. "Aileen is a sweet child. Aileen is the granddaughter of her mother, Reen. Don't feel uncomfortable with it."

Dareen smiled and nodded. "Good, ma. Thank you." Thank you."

"Mama~ Mama can't take Aileen alone? Will you be so busy you can't take Aileen?"

Aileen's voice sounded. The boy raised his slightly flushed face on his nose. His hands were tightly wrapped around his mother's waist.

"Mama has to take care of something important, baby. Mama will be very busy and mama is afraid, mama will not be able to take good care of Aileen there because the time is very divided. If Aileen is with grandma, Aileen can accompany granda and grandma can also play with auntie Vell."

"Yes?" Dareen asked, waiting for the response of Aileen who was still staring at him.

The boy rolled up a smile, nodding his head before moving to hug Dareen back. "Mom has to promise to go home soon, huh?"

Dareen rubbed Aileen's hair while laughing amusedly, as well as Veryana who had been staring at the two since. "Mama promised to be back soon after mama's business there is done, baby."

"I just have to make sure that person will never find Aileen." Inner Dareen.

Camelia Apartments

Apartment door open. Araell stared at the surroundings and found that the atmosphere of her apartment was a little different than usual. His gaze turned to the clock on his right wrist, and found that it had only been half an hour since he left his company.

Ten o'clock past eleven.

Usually Dareen will wait for him to be pitched while reading a book. Although actually it is because Dareen has insomnia that makes the wife contract difficulty sleeping quickly.

"Have they slept?"

Azraell wasn't sure if it was because Dareen was asleep or for some other reason. But Azraell knew that Dareen must still hold her anger. Moreover, he could not even apologize because he was still held in the Eri apartment for some time.

"I never demanded anything about our covenant Zra. But I beg you one thing. Don't hurt Aileen. He's the only one precious in my life."

Those words gaped at him. Azraell realized that Dareen's anger was also caused by his negligence. Lalai for not paying attention to the small child under his supervision, and negligent because he broke his promise not to bring Aileen and Eri together.

After removing her shoes and replacing them with house slippers, Azraell stepped towards Aileen's room, opening the door. Just to find an empty room.

"Did Aileen sleep with Dareen tonight?" Mumbled.

Azraell turned around, walked two steps towards the other door and opened it.

Blank.

"Where are they?" Azrell was confused when he did not see Aileen and Dareen in the apartment. Despite searching everywhere, there was no sign of anyone there before Azraell returned.

There was no message Dareen left on Azrael.

"He didn't leave any messages. Is it possible that it's coming out?" Azraell.

He looked at his phone screen and typed. Send a message to Dareen.

[Are you out?]

22.24

Just have a tick one. Dareen number is inactive. Azraell twisted his brain and thought of the possibility that Dareen was in his home. He looked for his mother's contact and called. "Hello, ma."

[What's up, Zra? Tumben once called mama these nights]

Hearing Veryana's question, Azraell asked her main purpose. "Are Dareen and Aileen there, ma?"

[Dareen said that you would have business, while he himself had foreign affairs for a few days. So Dareen let Aileen stay home for the next few days. Aren't you going, son?]

Hearing Veryana's explanation, Azraell was silent for two seconds before replying. "No ma. I forgot Dareen mentioned about going out of the country for the last few days."

[Alright. Mama's gonna check on Aileen. Get enough rest, son. Don't forget to eat. Mama shut it down, huh?]

"Mrs." Azraell's murmur shut down the two's chat that night. He dropped his body and stared at the ceiling of his apartment, before sighing and closing his eyes.

Shipol Airport Amsterdam Airport Hotel

Setting her foot in front of the airport entrance, the woman in a long-sleeved blue shirt covered in a black coat with trousers looked around her with a flat gaze. Dareen, he has almost no expression on his face.

"I haven't been here in a long time." He muttered almost without a sound.

He dragged his suitcase away from the airport to find a taxi. "Sir, please take me to the eleventh street. House number 204."

The taxi driver nodded. "Yes, miss." Letting Dareen hold her hand on the side of the car door, staring out while smiling.

"This is the city where your love lives, Kary. I'm here, just to protect what you're supposed to keep in this world, even if you, can't do it." Before closing the eyes.

The journey is still far. Maybe Dareen, too, needed at least a little while, to close his eyes.
