Picking Up the Past

Second Chance

Tomy is sitting in a restaurant with Ari and Arbi. Their meeting is minus Arya who refuses to come that afternoon, as Arya has to pick up Ardian at the airport with Mila. Tomy was enjoying mango juice while looking at the restaurant plateau that looked not too crowded.

While Ari enjoys cold coffee and Arbi eats his favorite sepaghetti.

“so what are your plans Tom?” ask Ari.

“as Arya said yesterday, I will meet some shareholders, the contact given by Rita I have contacted, I have got a meeting schedule with them” murmured Tomy.

“it looks like you will play a big role to meet the shareholders, we both can not help much, the project in Kalimantan will start soon, next week people from London will also come, the project in Kalimantan will start soon, other projects are also piling” explained Ari slowly.

“case Arnes is also being taken care of, he's a big threat to us, the target of the child is clearly Mila,” muttered Tomy. “but I was a little hesitant, who stabbed me at that time was not him, but his bodyguard, who, do you think he can take us to jail?”

“try first Tom, whose mind is clearly divided, so it will not disturb Mila, even though Mila has changed much, I still feel afraid, he could have made a unstable decision when precarious” said Ari.

Ari took a deep breath, he momentarily drank the cold coffee he ordered. The position of the chessboard was very profitable, the enemy king was cornered, the enemy pawn was not too much either. Just with a few steps. The game will win.

“gue does not like the game spread Tom, the castle must remain a fortress, the horse must remain a horse” said Ari meaningfully. Arbi and Tomy looked at him curiously.

“Arya is obviously in the Adinata group, he will remain king there. I will focus on protecting Mila, also Crisp doctor at Adinata hospital and also Irman problem, he said, lo focus on attacking Arnes with the stabbing case yesterday, just as you can take care of some shareholders in Jakarta, Arbi will take care of the shareholders he can press and also overseas shareholders, he said,” clear Ari.

“gue just realized you are full of strategy like this Ri” muttered Arbi praising his best friend.

“but I think Arya is much smarter, he also patiently does not force his will, giving us space to help him more, his position alone that makes him not free to move like we” Ari replied.

“if he is in position I set our steps like this, mutual murder will definitely happen Bi, head to head directly between him and the CEO of it” explained Ari with full seriousness.

"and this kind of situation actually benefits us, because they don't know who we are yet" Arbi continued.

Ari took a rough breath, He also had to prepare the defense, just in case his enemy made an attack blindly because it was cornered.

Ardian was heading to the building Cipta Rakarsa delivered by Ortin, after he drove his son and wife to the apartment Arya, he then rushed to meet Irman, Irman, he did not have much time because his business in Malaysia could not be left for long.

Ardian opened the map Arya gave him, he stared at the contents of the map with eyes full of disappointment. He did not expect his cousin to treat a woman like that.

Ardian took a rough breath, he looked towards Ortin who was focusing on driving.

“I didn't think an Indra adinata was still alive” muttered Ardian,

“everyone is so tuan” Ortin said briefly.

“lord Gibran has a great contribution to my father, I am truly honored my cousin to be Arya's wife,” continued Ardian

After arriving at the Cipta Rakarsa building, Ardian who escorted Ortin immediately went inside towards Irman's room, he did not care about everyone who was staring strangely at him.

Whispers of people talking about him he ignored, including the receptionist who was chasing him, he just ignored it.

“sorry sir, you can not enter carelessly like this” said Satpam who chased Ardian while pulling Ardian's arm. Beside him was also a receptionist who also chased after Ardian who entered without asking for permission.

Ortin took off with a rough hand security guard who touched the hand of Ardian, “jagaan your attitude, he will be the owner of this company” said Ortin firmly.

Irman stood up, he gave orders for the security guard and receptionist who chased Ardian to leave. Ardian then entered and Ortin closed the door while standing guard outside.

“your time is up” muttered Ardian flatly.

“aku know”

Ardian then gave the map that Arya gave him, “you put the family's embarrassment to Rakarsa, is that how you treat your wife?” he said it coldly.

Irman opened the map, his eyes round in disbelief, a divorce warrant from his wife that Vanessa had signed. There is also a photo kopy attachment of the test results of both of them.

'Vanessa got this original test letter from where' her inner unbeliever saw the letter

“I don't want to linger, I already know the case you are facing, such dirty ways are not the blood of Rakarsa, you really become a disgrace of our family Irman” continued Ardian sharply.

Irman just kept quiet, he bowed down to lose, his position getting destroyed by Vanessa's lawsuit.

“sign, let the girl search for her happiness that you have destroyed, all this time I always blame the girl, but it turns out you are the culprit of the problem”

“Arya has told me everything, if the condition of Adinata group he can control, he will help your case, at least he can pay the best lawyer for you” continued Ardian.

“one more thing Irman, Mr. Gibran has helped this company, my father's company and also aunty husband company in Sulawesi, do not do something that will betray his kindness as in the shareholders meeting yesterday”

“you know everything?” asked Irman weakly.

“because I'm watching you, I know your gestures during this month”

Irman took a rough breath, “if he and his company did not gnaw on my company, nor would I antagonize him” Irman replied in self-defense.

“already, from the beginning you have been wrong, just admit it, live your case, fix yourself, fix yourself, I will wait for you in Malaysia if you are better and you realize your mistake I will give you a good position later”

Irman is still weakly bowed, he has got a schedule of checks by anti-corruption institutions. The case he will not be able to avoid again, he is clearly guilty of bribing some officials to get the project in some areas.

“I'll talk to Vanessa first, I just signed” Irman muttered.

“sign it, you've treated her badly, there's no point in you persuading her not to divorce you, she's been hurt so much because of your treatment all this time”

Irman rubbed his face violently, he enjoyed his obedience too much. Feel free to touch any woman without fear of responsibility. Enjoy life as his father enjoys life. He forgot who was waiting for him at home.

Irman took the pen, he then signed the lawsuit with a heavy heart.

Ardian took the letter back. “Mila does not know anything about your wife's lawsuit, she is pregnant young, lest you endanger her condition, if that happens, I will ensure your true destruction” said Ardian coldly, Then he went out of the room. Accompanied by Ortin, he had to take care of several things to accelerate the transfer of the company to Malaysia.
