Rest

Chapter 25

CHAPTER 26.

That day Cokro came and expressed his feelings for Wulan, but as a prima donna girl at that time, Wulan firmly rejected the feeling of Cokro, even Wulan straightforwardly said until whenever he loved Arandhana, he was very happy, and never intended to remove Arandhana's position in his heart.

At first, Cokro was angry and no longer loved and accepted the girl who still kept the name of another man in her heart, but silent and unbeknownst to Wulan, the Father met Cokro, who was still holding the name of another man in her heart, even giving the lure of land hundreds of hectares if Cokro wants to marry Wulan, not to mention the legacy of the tea garden that Wulan will receive after his romance died. Because Wulan is the only daughter of the butenggung.

What makes Father Wulan give a gift to Cokro who wants to marry his daughter? 

At that time, Father Bahurekso was a butenggung, if currently at the same level as the head of the region, only had a daughter, who was at the age of 27 years, and not married, yet, slanted talk and the title of the old virgin began to hurt the hearing of Father Bahurekso, intended to match Wulan with a man he had long liked, apparently the man refused raw raw, because it turns out, the man had been, the man also had a lover, a broken hearted Wulan, refused to marry another man, until a few years later, came Cokro, who was, at first Cokro was just an ordinary young man but harbored an incredible love for Wulan.

(plis do not ask what year it is, because othor began to get dizzy with the calculation of the time, let's just say they are the remnants of Batavia ⁇ ️😂)

After the anger of Cokro, Father Bahurekso who began to despair with the title of a spinster who had been attached to his only daughter, did various ways so that there are men who want to marry his daughter, he said, even with the lure of some of his land, because Cokro also has an ambitious nature, then he changed his stance, from being initially angry because of Wulan's refusal, changed accepts Wulan who still keeps Dhana in her heart.

A marriage, should be happy for all parties, but not for the marriage of Cokro and Wulan, marriage based on the principle of personal interests of both parties, Father Bahurekso wants his good name to be maintained, he said, and Cokro wants land to start his business.

That is, their marriage went well when viewed from the glasses of outsiders, but in the house only a couple who knew her, although not like Wulan who loves other men, but in the house only a couple who knows her, but Cokro's love can not just disappear from his heart, the longer it turns into an obsession that controls him, to make him reckless.

Cokro and Arandhana had just started their business at the time, because their business was the same, so Cokro with his sweet mouth venomous, approached Arandhana with the ulterior intention of being a business partner, at first their cooperation went smoothly, because Cokro was about to take Arandhana's heart, after Arandhana trusted him 100 %, then Cokro started his evil intentions, especially their Client is Twenty Five Hotel, the, make the ambition of Cokro even bigger.

Cokro trick starts with, infiltrating vegetables with quality far below the Food & Fresh Standards and Twenty Five Hotel, at first it is not a problem, because it is considered a mere ignorance, but over time the number of ugly vegetables is increasing, Arandhana itself does not know why, because after being traced to the farmers, they say that the Vegetables they send are the best quality, the best quality, it turns out that Cokro flirted with some farmers, until Food & Fresh suffered a loss.

Not stopping there, Cokro even utilizes the wealth and power of his in-laws to smooth out his evil plans, he even makes fictitious restaurants in Kalimantan and Sulawesi, Indonesia, then order the raw materials they need from Food & Fresh, at first Arandhana as the owner and founder of Food & Fresh is not willing to accept the order, because the location is too far, because the location is too far away, and shipping by ship, very risky, namely vegetables that will quickly rot, shipping costs that will swell doubled, when compared to shipping, within the Java area, and many other considerations.

With the ability of the Chocolate-Shiny Tongue, finally Arandhana began their first shipment, the first shipment failed because the vegetables began to rot, the capital expected to increase, is now reduced, now less, the, even though the capital is very much expected to increase their profits, especially the capital from the disbursement of business capital loans from banks.

And it is time to pay the capital installment to the Bank.

Because capital does not generate profits, while expenses continue to run, the newly established company, bankruptcy, which leaves a lot of debt, no friends and colleagues, and no, there is also no support of brothers and parents, making Arandhan distraught, where he must make 10 billion in a short time.

And Cokro laughed happily at Arandhana's decline, without her realizing her evil deeds, making her marriage never be blessed and happy, and she was not happy, of course, the reason is because the capital that Arandhana borrowed mostly moved to the private pocket of Cokro, through the farmers who worked with him.

Back to the Cokro and Wulan quarrel.

Using only one hand, Cokro gripped both sides of Wulan's jaw, "if you knew, whatever I did to win your heart, you would know, if my feelings of love are now greater towards you, all the gifts of Father, no longer mean because now only your heart and feelings are what I want."

Wulan shook her head again. "I only love Dhana mas," said Wulan lirih.

And Cokro was further enraged because of his, "aaaarrrghhhh .." choked Cokro who immediately threw his wife's face violently, then he left his luxurious home.

Tumenggung is a title for regional heads (districts) in Java, Kalimantan and the Malay peninsula. The title in Java is a fairly high degree (big custom head), but the title in West Kalimantan is only intended for the village custom head (small custom head).  

A nobleman in Java and the Malay peninsula often also served as the head of the region in a region relatively far from the capital or the border so that his title became King Tumenggung, Raden Tumenggung or Prince Tumenggung.
