POV Pelakor Target The Actor

Chapter 24

Garry leaned beside her car, looking at the diamond necklace she was going to present to Emily. But the loud noise caught his attention. Seeing everyone crowding across the street, Garry immediately ran towards it.

Seeing among the residents who were crowding there were also his in-laws, Garry held back his steps, but for free, his in-laws were already aware of his existence.

"Garry, why are you here?" ask Andita.

"I'd like to meet my client at the restaurant, just as I'm about to enter I'm surprised to hear the sound of a collision."

"It looks like Emily is doomed" Andita said.

Hearing Emily's name Garry's heart seemed to work very slowly. "What's wrong, mama?"

"The victim of the accident was Emily."

Garry wanted to make sure, but at the same time an ambulance came and took the victim. Seeing that the bag the police picked up looked like Emily's, Garry had no power to convince herself that it wasn't Emily. Garry was forced to return to the restaurant to buy time.

The Hospital.

Hearing reports from the Bodyguard he hired to look after Emily, David is very upset. He paid the bodyguard to protect Emily. But Emily must be in the hospital.

Arriving in front of the handling room, David gripped the strong crate of the Bodyguard shirt.

"What are you doing, Zein?! Isn't it your job to keep her safe!"

"I kept her safe, but I also had to keep her distance, the killer had already broken Emily's car brakes, but I knocked her off by plucking all four tires of Emily's car, when I checked the parking CCTV, when Emily got into a trap taxi, I panicked, I speeded on the street to get to Emily's destination, I was right, and it turned out that they wanted to hit Emily."

"I'm fine David, thank you for protecting me."

David was so relieved to see Emily alive, only to see bruises on her temples.

"It's just an impact wound, because he pushed me, who was hit hard it was a shopping cart that he threw towards the impactor's car."

"This is all I can do for you Em, you're in this position because I, my wife, won't hurt you if we're not close" he said.

"Have it, I don't care, it's just that with this incident, I'm very grateful, at least I have a way to make sure of something" said Emily.

"What's that?" ask David.

"Cryption! You just go home, I want to pretend to be sick first."

Seeing with his own eyes Emily is okay, David can return calmly, but he will still uncover Emily's murder plans.

The more the night, the wind was getting colder piercing the surface of the skin. After getting out of his car, Garry grabbed his hoodie jacket. She kept entering the Hospital area looking for Emily's room. Until he arrived at a room whose number was exactly the same as the one on the phone screen.

"You're finally coming." Emily looks so cold.

Garry was unable to make a sound seeing Emily's condition.

"I'm not the beautiful Emily anymore, I'm just an ugly and flawed girl, I'm just a poor girl too. Still want to live with me?"

"I can't walk Garry, I'm disabled, how can you live with a disabled girl like me?"

Garry was completely unable to speak.

Seeing Garry shut up, Emily smiled cynically. "I'm not forcing you to be loyal to me, I'm very aware of who I am, actors like me, if not beautiful and no longer attractive, then it will just be thrown away. Take it easy Garry, I was ready to accept all that long before I was with you."

"You want to break our relationship?"

Garry is still tight-lipped.

"No need to answer now, once you are sure of your answer, meet me again. Now go home."

Garry comes home worried, Emily is a new part of his life, but seeing Emily disabled, his heart hesitates, can he be happy with a disabled girl?

Garry went home to Lesty's house with his limp face. He went straight to his room, and there Lesty was still awake.

"Where are you from?" ask Lesty.

"It's meeting, and the results aren't satisfactory" Garry said.

"Mama said, Emily was in an accident, and you were there too."

"I was there because I wanted to find out, I didn't see who the victim was either, I just knew her from mama." Garry went straight into the bathroom, he wasn't ready to talk about Emily.

Next morning.

Garry was late to prepare, Lesty had long since left the room, hastily she came out while wearing her suit. As he went down the stairs, he clearly heard the quarrels of Aji, Lesty, and Andita. It sounds like Andita and Lesty are urging Aji to marry Sonia, but Aji strongly rejects her.

"What's less about Sonia? She's beautiful, rich, from a distinguished family!" lesty.

"Married it's not only pretty and rich, but it's a life that goes on, I have to make sure with what kind of woman I spend my life with. I'm sorry, Sonia's not on my criteria, '" Aji refused.

"Keep the one who entered your criteria as the actor!?" andita.

"If so, why? You don't know how wonderful my life is with Emily, she's willing to resign from her office just to serve me, Emily understanding, if I mentioned the kindness about her our time wouldn't be enough!" said Aji.

"While an arrogant woman like Sonia only knows to demand rights without willing to do the duty, what I fear most, she cannot respect me as a husband, like you did Garry who always oppressed Garry. I don't want to live like Garry who doesn't have dignity and self-respect in front of his own wife."
