PLEASE, LOVE ME, WIDOW

ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-SIX

"At this time, Daniel's actions have been categorized as a serious criminal, we will not dispute that. And in this case, our side is committed to helping all parties in solving this case, including finding Daniel's current whereabouts" said Dika again with confidence.

"So, you really don't know where that bastard took my wife?, instead you know all the assets of the Mahardika family. It means you can definitely guess where that bastard thinks he took Qiandra, he couldn't possibly take her to a public place, surely he brought to one of the hidden islands that certainly belongs to the Mahardika family" said Dean still with a calm attitude.

"I really don't know it, Mr. Dean, but if about the assets of the Mahardika family, it is true I know almost everything" said Dika again.

"Almost, what do you mean by almost, means there's something you don't know" Dean asked, continuing to press Dika.

"You're right, sir, although you know I'm not part of this family, my fate may not be that much different from that of Vian's assistant. And I think you also understand how much I can know, just as Vian's assistant knows your family assets. There is certainly a limit that I cannot pass just to find out how much the assets of the Mahardika family" said Dika still in a calm voice.

Dean glanced at Dika at a glance, yes, Dean also knew that Dika was an adopted child in the Mahardika family. Therefore, Dika has never been a president at PT.Mahardika, although in fact he is much more worthy than Daniel. And what Dika said about her and Vian's assistant, too, could not be denied by Dean.

"Huh, yes already, now do you know which island belongs to that family, and I think you can predict where that bastard took Qiandra. Don't tell me you can't do that either" Dean said in a slightly irritated voice.

"There are many private islands belonging to the Mahardika family that I know of, Mr. Dean, if you will, I will give you the list" Dika said.

"If it's just the list, we already have it, I want to shorten the time by asking you where you think the bastard took and hid my wife" Dean said.

"For that matter, please forgive me, Mr. Dean, I really couldn't have expected it. If I say one location, while I'm not sure myself, I'm afraid it will make you waste more time" Dika said.

"I'm sorry if I interrupt, Mr. Dika, how in island X, does the Mahardika family have a private island there" asked Vian's assistant who had been silent from the beginning to interrupt the two men's conversation.

"Island X?" dika asked with a frowning forehead, "I don't think the Mahardika family has a private island there, Mr. Vian" he continued after a while trying to remember.

"But the last helicopter trail we found was headed to the islands" said assistant Vian.

When he re-narrated his forehead deeply, "In the meantime, I check first, sir, I will try to check the expenses of the Mahardika family, especially Daniel" he said. Then he took his work iPad and started doing some things there.

Dean and Vian's assistant just kept silent to see Dika who was concentrating on the flat object in her hand. The two of them glanced at each other and gave the code with their eyes, then Dean took his phone.

"Vian, can he be trusted" Dean asked through the phone he had in his hand.

Vian's assistant immediately reached into the phonsel in the pocket of the cloth pants he was wearing after seeing the code given by Dean. "I don't know either, sir, but let's see how far he's willing to help us" Vian's assistant replied after reading a message from Dean.

When the two were busy replying to the message, it turned out that Dika had finished his work. "Master, I don't know if there's a private Mahardika family-owned island in the X archipelago. But I found a considerable outlay from Daniel's account two years ago. The transfer is quite large for the account belongs to Francis Aldo, to my knowledge, Mr. Aldo is the owner of several islands in the X archipelago" said Dika again.

Dean gives the code again to Vian's assistant, while Vian's own assistant immediately gives orders to his men through a communication device in his ear. "Then, what else did you find" Dean asked Dika again.

"It's also a bit strange, there's also a big transfer deal with the aim of the account on behalf of Ronaldo Ballini, he, instead of him the architect who routinely fills the interior design magazine. Maybe Daniel built a place beyond my knowledge. Because to my knowledge, this year the Mahardika family is not making a new dwelling" said Dika explained his confusion.

"Or there might be a company building under construction, sir" asked Vian's assistant.

"No, if it is a company, which indeed every year we do the construction and expansion of the company, but everything must be from the company account and not a personal account" said Dika.

Dean only mangosteen mangosteen heard Dika's explanation, he also admitted that the penjelsan man was quite reasonable. Meanwhile, Vian's assistant has continued this matter to his men to directly investigate the two names mentioned by Dika earlier.

"So, is there anything else suspicious" Dean asked Dika.

"You're right, Mr. Dean, after the transfer to Mr. Aldo, it looks like Daniel did make a pretty big transfer to some other account. I will send the full data to Vian's assistant, so that it can be investigated further. Because if further sorted, it seems Mr. Daniel did buy an island and build a dwelling on the island" said Dika by knitting his forehead.

"Are you sure that he didn't list him as an asset of the Mahardika family" Dean asked again, "Because if he registers it, we'll find it easier to track him down" he said.

"I am sure, Mr. Dean, I am very confident that Daniel did not register this island as a private island that became an asset of the Mahardika family" said Dika firmly and confidently.

"Hmmm, so in whose name he registered the island, it is impossible for him to register in his own name" Dean said with a frown as well.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Dean, it looks like Mr. Aldo won't cooperate. He said that some buyers of his island did not want to be exposed. And he's agreed on that" Vian's assistant interrupted Dika and Dean's conversation.

"Already, Mr. Dika, but he still does not want to give a list of the names of the buyers of his private island" said Vian's assistant.

"Call the police to apply pressure, I don't think he will resist if the authorities tell him to" Dean said with a cold face. "Fastly, Vian" cried Dean again impatiently.

"Well, sir" said Vian's assistant who immediately contacted the police and conveyed the matter. "Police will come to Mr. Aldo immediately, if he does not cooperate, it is possible that he will be detained for supporting Daniel's crimes" Vian's assistant said.

"Hemm, he will reveal it soon" Dean said. "Then what about Ronaldo Ballini, if he can be invited to work together" asked Dean again.

"To my knowledge, Ronaldo Ballini was the architect who created several interior designs in an architect's magazine. And if I don't remember wrongly, Mrs Qiandra really likes this magazine. Mrs Qiandra has a fairly complete collection" said Dika.

"Of course my wife subscribes to the magazine" Dean asked with a frown. Dean knew that the Qiandra had many advantages, but an interest in architecture was unheard of.

"Mrs Qiandra does not subscribe, Mr. Dean, but Daniel who subscribes to this magazine regularly, since ......" Dika pauses for a moment like trying to remember something.

"Since when?" asked Dean curiously.

"Since Mrs Qiandra liked the magazine, several times I and Daniel saw Mrs Qiandra was so engrossed in reading and studying the magazine. Even on some occasions, Madam Qiandra looked so enthusiastic on some designs and well, indeed Daniel kept all the designs that Madam Qiandra liked" Dika spoke as she looked away out the window, it was as if remembering a flash of past memories.

Very clearly in Dika's memory, at that time Daniel asked Dika to enter the room quietly when he knew Qiandra was in his room. Daniel was always curious about what the woman was doing. Because Qiandra would not want to linger in Daniel's room for long if the owner of the room was not in the room.

However, on several occasions, they caught the woman waiting in Daniel's room. At first, Daniel and Dika were curious, and also a little suspicious as to why the Qiandra arrived to remain silent in Daniel's room. Dika who wanted to immediately greet and approach Qiandra was immediately detained by Daniel by giving a finger code that was placed in his mouth.

Daniel stepped slowly closer to Qiandra without being noticed by the woman. Daniel noticed what the woman was paying attention to so enthusiastically, that even Dika could see the occasional Qiandra swiping the picture in the magazine. Dika also heard Qiandra muttering to herself, but she did not hear clearly what the woman said.

But Dika was sure, Daniel who was standing right beside the woman must have heard what Qiandra said. And it lasted quite a long time, because Dika himself felt quite tired to continue standing there without doing anything. While Qiandra remained engrossed in browsing the magazine, unaware that Daniel was keeping his eyes on him.

Until after quite a while, Qiandra finally closed the magazine and smiled wryly, "Haish, Qi, Qi, your delusion is too high, can still live, can eat and have a place to take shelter is good luck. I wish I could have such a beautiful place. But, dreaming is not wrong, even if it is too high can at least be an encouragement to life" said Qiandra while shaking her head slowly.

"Is it over, Qiandra" asked Daniel who was standing beside Qiandra in an attitude as if he didn't know what.

Qiandra gasped and was shocked when she realized that Daniel was next to her. Dika even shook her head with a smile as she recalled how red Qiandra's face was when she realized Daniel's whereabouts.

Even so surprised, Qiandra also immediately stood up and dropped the magazine on his lap so that it hit the table with a loud voice. This further made the woman jump back in shock.

As she recalled that, Dika even chuckled a little at seeing how cute Qiandra's behavior was back then. So drowned in the daydream, Dika did not even realize that two pairs of eyes were looking at him carefully. Dean and Vian's assistant looked puzzled when they heard Dika chuckle telling her about the Qiandra.

A while passed, Dika finally realized where she was and felt a little uneasy as she watched the two people looking at her intensely and frowning. "Ah, I'm sorry, I just still find it funny to remember how Qiandra's surprised face, uh I mean Lady Qiandra when knowing Daniel was by her side" said Dika trying to explain to the two men.

"Hmmm, if my guess is correct, then there's a chance that he's building something to my wife's liking, if that's what it might be" dean asked to shift the conversation away from just discussing the story of Qiandra's past with another man.

Dika nodded his head slightly, "Perhaps, sir, if you look at the architect paid by Daniel is the same as the architect who designed various interiors in magazines that are always collected by Qiandra" sahut Dika though a little doubt.

"Vian, try to contact this Ronaldo Ballini, and try to check also the projects handled by him in the last two years, find out where he carried out the construction" dean shouted at Vian's assistant.

"Well, sir" said Vian's assistant who immediately gave orders through earphones to his men.

Dean just nodded faintly, "Then, is there any more clues you can give us" Dean asked Dika again.

"For the time being this is all I can give you, Mr. Dean, sorry if I can't help much. And I also apologize that we cannot help you in full. Because, I think you also know how our company is currently. I had to focus more on the company first, I really hope the Zacharias side does not add to our burden" said Dika.

"For direct corporate affairs I will not associate it with Mahardika, but Daniel's problem I hope you will not intervene either, from the arrest to the legal process later" dean said in a cold voice.

Dika breathed a heavy sigh, "Master, the company PT.Mahardika has indeed decided not to interfere in Daniel's legal process, but as a family of Daniel, I can not let go of it. Please forgive me, Mr. Dean, but I think you can also understand my position, because the only person Daniel can hope for right now is me" Dika said.
