Rizal touched his chest which for some reason suddenly felt his heart pounding quite hard. He is currently with Vito on a trip outside Jakarta, because there are their clients outside the city who want to use his services to uncover cases that occur in his client's company.
" What's up, sir?" asked Vito turned his head towards Rizal who was still holding his left chest. He guessed that his boss was feeling something.
" I don't know, Vito. My feelings just suddenly weren't good." Rizal explained what he was feeling at the moment. He doesn't know what causes his heart to beat faster than usual.
" Do we stop, sir?" vito asked offering them a rest first.
" No, Vit! Just continue the journey." Rizal rejects Vito's offer because he wants to finish his job immediately and not come home late until his home.
Meanwhile in Jakarta
Rivaldi watched Isabella who was sitting limp beside him. The girl was still sobbing and tightly hugging her own body. It seemed that fear had not disappeared from Isabella's heart.
" Where do I take you home, where do you live?" Rivaldi asked Isabella. But Isabella did not care about Rivaldi's question. Rivaldi tells Isabella that she ignored her question because she still seems shocked. And unfortunately Rivaldi also does not know the existence of Isabella's house. She only knew Grace's house, but she didn't think Grace would be in it.
Rivaldi took his phone. She has no choice but to contact Grace, as Grace is currently Isabella's stepmother.
Twice his call on Grace's number was not also lifted by the woman, making Rivaldi snort violently.
" Come, Rena! Pick up!" Rivaldi called Grace's phone number a third time, because she didn't respond to her calls. Rivaldi suspects that Grace would not take a phone call from him because Grace felt she would be harassing him.
" Accept, Rena! You'll be sorry if you don't take the call from me right away." Rivaldi was visibly upset that Grace was not quick to respond to a phone call from him.
***
Grace blinked her eyes when she heard her phone ring. He fingered his phone to see who the person who contacted him was currently. Because now Rizal has a schedule out of town to make him choose to stay at home.
Grace frowned looking at the row of numbers that appeared on her current phone screen. He remembered that the row of beautiful numbers was Rivaldi's number.
" What did that guy call me?" Grace mutters. Rivaldi had not been in contact for a long time, as he remembered after marrying Rizal, he had never been contacted by Rivaldi. Therefore he felt astonished this time Rivaldi contacted him. Even Rivaldi contacted him many times making himself feel curious.
Ddrrtt
For the fourth time Grace's phone rang from the same number, making Grace even more wondering.
Finally, after the fifth call, Grace picked up the phone call from Rivaldi.
" What did you call me!?" With a faint tone, Garce answered Rivaldi's phone call.
" Why are you so tired of talking to me, Rena?" Rivaldi asked because Grace was still hostile to him. Though it was precisely Rivaldi's attitude that influenced Agatha that upset Grace, therefore, Agatha actually forbade her to marry Rizal.
" We have no business anymore, why did you call me!?" Grace did show some dislike towards Rivaldi who was currently contacting her.
" You're really fierce, very different to the Rena I know," Rivaldi said, sneering at Grace. Looks like Rivaldi still can not move on from the figure of Rena.
" Rena doesn't exist! You should have realized that, Aldi!" Grace told Rizal to open his eyes, and not to keep comparing himself to the figure of Rena he played very well.
" Yes, Rena doesn't exist. But you managed to create the character of Rena so perfectly that it can deceive people," said Rivaldi who was still disappointed because Grace had played him.
" Not to feel the most hurt! You have also cheated others!" Grace again insinuated Rivaldi, reminding of what Rivaldi had done to Erlangga.
" But, at least I'm not as good as your former lover, who likes to take advantage of a woman's innocence just to meet her naivety!" Rivaldi who witnessed his own kebe jatan Joe felt sure if he was better than Grace's lover first. At least, he never hurt women, let alone to harass as Joe had done to Isabella.
" Not to mention him! It has nothing to do with you!" hardik Grace isn't happy Rivaldi brought up about Joe. Actually he was a little surprised because Rivaldi mentioned Joe.
" It's a pity, I was just dealing with your ex-boyfriend, until I made a bon yok face." Rivaldi mentioned what he had done to Grace's ex-lover.
" You met Joe? Joe is here?" Grace didn't even have time to think where Rivaldi knew about Joe. He was more surprised by Joe's presence in Jakarta.
" why? Youmisshim? Do you want to meet him and knit your love story back with him? Did you forget that you are now a wife of a man trying to almost double your age?" Rivaldi was satisfied to insinuate Grace all-out.
" Shut your mouth, Aldi! Whatever your reason for being in physical contact with him, it has nothing to do with me!" obviously Grace doesn't want to be linked to Joe anymore.
" It's a shame what happened wasn't what you wanted, Rena. In fact he just acted, and it's all about you." Rivaldi did not directly tell Grace about the act done by Joe to Isabella, who incidentally is the continued child of Grace.
" What do you mean, Aldi? What's Joe doing with me?" Grace grew curious about Rivaldi's intentions. He remembers what he had to do with Joe. Gavin's? No way! Because Rizal has guaranteed himself, especially now that he has status as Rizal's wife, it is impossible if Joe's action intersected with his reckless actions a year ago when he wanted to harm Gavin.
" Your ex-lover almost desecrated your next child, the son of your husband ... Isabella." Isabella." Rivaldi told me what Isabella had just experienced.
Grace gasped in shock at hearing such shocking information for her. Not only was it shocking, but it was scary in his opinion.
" What did you say? Don't you joke, Aldi! It's not funny!" It is precisely Rivaldi who is affected by Grace's anger. He hoped that what Rivaldi said was not true
" If you don't believe me, I'll show you the proof, you see for yourself!" Rivaldi changed his phone call looking for a video call.
Grace looked up at the crying Isabella in the car, hugging her own body. Isabella's face looked chaotic and reddened as Isabella cried.
" Jeez, Bella!?" Grace flabbergasted. " Fuckin' shit! What did you do to Bella, Aldi!?" geram Grace saw Isabella seen crying and shock. Grace again blames Rivaldi and assumes that this is Rivaldi's wits alone.
" Hey, why are you mad at me? I'm the one who helped him from the kebru taran former lover breng sekmu. You should have thanked me instead of swearing like that!" rivaldi protests because Grace is venting anger at him.
" Where is your position now?" Grace rushed to get her bag and car keys and walked out of her room. He has to get Isabella right away. She could not bear to see Isabella looking shocked like she saw on her phone screen.
" You know my office, right? I'm on the street across from my office." Rivaldi mentioned his current position.
" Okay, I'll follow you there. Don't you dare touch her, Aldi!" Before closing the video call from Rivaldi, Grace had threatened Rivaldi not to take advantage of Isabella's current adversity.
After putting the phone back in the bag, Grace ran towards the stairs.
" Where are you going, Non?" bi Tinah asked as she saw Grace running hurriedly down the stairs.
" Bi, Auntie come with me!" Grace intends to invite Bi Tinah to pick up Isabella. Because she will definitely need a person who will calm Isabella down, while she has to ride.
" Where are you going? Want to shop, Nope?" tanya Bi Tinah chuckled, guessing if Grace would take her away shopping at the mall.
" If I want to go shopping, there's no way that Auntie I'm going with me!" Grace rolled her eyes in response to Bi Tinah's words which were actually just a joke.
" I'll change my clothes first, won't I?" Bi Tinah intends to change her clothes with a more appropriate than just a negligee, because she will be invited by her employer to leave.
" No need, Bi! It's just like that! Go, hurry!" Grace told Bi Tinah to follow her immediately.
Grace rushed towards her car with Bi Tinah following behind her. While Grace chose not to inform Rizal because she wanted Rizal's concentration to be divided because of the unpleasant news that Isabella had just experienced.
