Remove Your Regrets

Chapter 22. Reply to Bram

...🍀🍀🍀...

20 Years ago, it was very painful for Anna and Bryce. They lost their 2-year-old daughter at the time. Their son was kidnapped by their domestic assistant because vengeance had been fired from the house, then reportedly kidnapped by a madman. After that they did not know the news about their little daughter.

Anna, who was depressed, made Bryce sad. Bryce finally took a child from the orphanage, Giselle who was 3 years older than their biological daughter. Bryce adopted her as Sean's sister and son.

Slowly Anna's condition improved, Giselle's cheerful attitude, though sometimes stubborn and spoiled, again made a smile on Anna's face. The Gallans loved Giselle as much as their own daughter, spoiling her with all the affection she should have for their daughter. They never mentioned Giselle as a foster child. They love Giselle, but in the deepest recesses of the heart. Anna still can't forget her real daughter, Lyodra Shara Gallan.

The last word they got was that Lyodra died burning in the house of the madman who took her. But Anna doesn't believe it.

But somehow Anna missed Lyodra today. Bryce again calmed his wife and turned to talk about Giselle's problems. Their daughter is pregnant out of wedlock and she is pregnant by someone's husband.

"Ma, we have to think of a solution to all this. Papa doesn't want our son to be his second wife" Bryce told his wife.

"Mama doesn't want pa, so what should we do?" Anna refocused on the affairs of her beloved daughter Giselle.

"We need to see Bram's family and we need to talk to his wife" Bryce told his wife.

"Yes pa,"

"Tomorrow we meet him" Bryce told his wife. They slept together because it was night.

That night Ara returns to her old house with Bram. Bram also behaved somewhat calmly as usual after Giselle's house. While the one keeping Aryan in the hospital is Rania for tonight.

"Mas, do you want dinner? Shall I make it?" tawar Ara, still trying to be a good and patient wife. He feels Bram's calmness is his chance to take Bram's heart.

"Yes." Yeah."

"What do you want?"

"Fried rice" Bram replied briefly.

"I'll make you, man," said Ara as she gave a faint smile. Ara went to the kitchen to cook fried rice at her husband's request. He was also hungry yet to eat dinner, but he prayed that the food he ate this time was not released like last day.

Bram had just finished from the bathroom cleaning himself, he saw the sleeping clothes that were already on the bed. Without thinking for a long time he grabbed the clothes and put them on, it was predictable that Ara did it.

"You are good, but I love you not." murmured Bram.

Bram grunted the fragrant cuisine of his wife which was always delicious. He went out of his room and walked into the kitchen.

He saw Ara moving the fried rice to the plate. Not to forget Ara keeps a clap of eggs on fried rice specifically for Bram.

"Mas, there's pregnant milk here.what's this for me?" tanya Ara happy to see there are 2 boxes of milk for pregnant women chocolate flavor there.

"It's Giselle's."

"Oh, I drank it earlier."

"WHAT?" jolt Bram emotion.

What do you expect Ara?

The man let out a heavy sigh, then he sat himself on the dining table chair.

"Yes, that's for you. I'll buy it again for Giselle. But the next time you can't, just play it, just take it, not polite!" ketus Bram while taking a glass of drinking water on the table and then gulp it down.

"I think it's for me mas" replied Ara defensively.

"You don't have to answer, you need to take the food" said Bram impatiently, his stomach was hungry from yesterday afternoon. He did not even have time to eat at Giselle's house, boro-boro eating that there was even a lot of thought. And again he blamed everything on Ara.

Without saying anything, Ara stored the plate containing fried rice right in front of Bram. Then Ara sat down and prepared to eat as well.

Ara's mouth read a prayer before a meal that she never forgot. While her husband directly devoured food greedily without saying a prayer.

"Mas, you haven't prayed.Feed him a quick walk, you'll choke mas."

"Can it be? People eat it and it's even brought in!" bram exclaimed in annoyance, looking at his wife with annoyance.

"Sorry, I just reminded you."

"Do not have to be noisy! You're different from Giselle, she's always quiet and not chatty as you like to tell her to eat, ask this, the point is she's not a pussy." grumbled Bram who began to compare his wife with Giselle, her lover.

God, please give me the strength to face a husband like this. Inner Ara while breathing.

"Oh so Giselle is that right? That means he's not paying attention to you dong?" tanya Ara ventured.

"Why did you say that kayak?" both of Bram's eyes widened looking at Ara in annoyance.

"What I said is true. If Ms. Giselle was the same affectionate mas, she would not have let the stomach empty until now. He will definitely pay attention to you, everything you do and what happens to you. People who love you won't let you get sick."

"ENOUGH!" bram shouted furiously and did not accept Ara's words about Giselle. But in his heart he thought of his wife's words.

"If he loves Mas, he will not leave the mas and go abroad when life is difficult mas to rise to the position of CEO." Ara reminded him of Bram's hardest moment a few months ago. At that time he was not yet the CEO of his company and was still a regular employee. Ara who always supported Bram in his hardest moments to reach the position of CEO. But at that time Giselle left him to Paris for a career there.

"That's because he's a career!"

"Oh yeah? If he had a career there, why didn't he contact Mas Bram at all? Why did he come back when Bram became President?"

"What do you mean talk like that? Don't ever vilify Giselle!" Bram pointed at Ara in annoyance. Finally they did not focus on eating, instead delayed due to arguing.

"Why mas? You can't answer, can you? That means that Giselle doesn't really love you at all" said Ara, who tried to make Bram realize that Giselle didn't love him.

"You really, made my appetite go away!" jikak Bram then left the dining table. Without carrying a plate that still contains half of the fried rice there.

Ara saw Bram leave from there, she resumed her eating activities even though her heart was uncomfortable. "We should keep eating deck, under any circumstances and please strengthen mama huh? Strengthen mama, so that papa you realize that we are in her life." Ara stroked her queen stomach while smiling faintly. "Mama persevered for your sake, for the sake of opa, in order to avoid the lawful deed that Allah so hated was thalaq."

^^^The Apostle's Hadith which reads “Halal deeds which Allah hates most is thalaq (divorce)”(HR. Abu Dawud and Ibn Majah)
