Scandal at the House of In-Law

Forced to Lie

Arriving home, Jeslyn took her mother to her room. He said that Firza had been told by Edwin about Jeslyn and Edwin.

"You take it easy, let me answer you" said Helena.

They then went back to Firza.

"Jeslyn answered my question earlier. Is it true that you and Edwin have been in a forbidden relationship?" ask Firza.

"Son Firza, who said that? Don't believe Jeslyn never did. Neither Edwin nor any man" replied Helena. "Well, isn't it Jes?" ask Helena to Jeslyn.

"Yes, Za. You don't trust Edwin. He just wants us to cancel the engagement. He hasn't been able to move on from me" Jeslyn replied.

"Alhamdulillah, I am calm" said Firza.

Jeslyn felt sad because she was forced to lie to Firza. He's been hurting Firza secretly.

"Tante, let's speed up my engagement with Jeslyn. How about two more days?" ask Firza.

"Good is better sooner" replied Helena.

Firza then said he would tell his brother.

Actually Jeslyn feels guilty for lying to Firza but she has to do that for the good name of her family.

"Don't be sad, mama will help convince Firza" Helena said.

"Ma, how about Firza finally find out," Jeslyn said.

"It's going to be my mom's business" Helena said.

"I trust my mother" said Jeslyn.

The news of Firza and Jeslyn's engagement has spread to Edwin's ears. He was getting upset because his efforts were not working. He'll make a new plan.

Khadijah no longer expected Marino. For Khadijah Marino does not deserve him.

"Khadija, can we have dinner together tonight?" ask Marino.

"Sorry, Sir. I have an event, you ask me to participate in the study tonight," Khadijah declined.

Actually Khadijah no studies only he did not want to expect more from Marino.

"Sir Marino, it's better to have dinner with me. I'm free tonight" said Saskia.

"Really, Sir. Meningan mr. Saskia only," said Khadijah.

"So, I want Khadijah" said Marino and left Khadija and Saskia.

"Tumben you refuse to invite Mr. Marino, have you really given up?" ask Saskia.

"What to hope with people who do not want to fight for us. There will only be false hope" replied the cynical Khadijah.

Saskia smiled happily, she felt that she would easily get Marino.

Marino felt Khadijah was getting away from her. Moreover, Marino did not want to meet his brother.

"Why, Brother?" ask Bara.

"Dizziness, Khadijah seems to be moving away. I just don't want to have dinner" replied Marino.

"That's why you just meet his brother" Bara said. "The woman is looking for a really serious man. Well if seriously would want to meet his parents," continued Bara.

"Oh, Bar. I'm not ready yet. I'm afraid his brother won't accept me" said Marino.

"Ah you are not to be expected, Brother," said Bara.

Bara had advised his brother but still did not dare. So he chose to be quiet.

Bara met Khadijah in his room.

"Khadija, why did you refuse Kak Marino's invitation to dinner?" ask Bara.

"I don't want to expect more, especially Mr. Marino does not want to fight for me" replied Khadijah. "It looks like Mr. Marino is just messing around so what I hope for," Khadijah continued.

"I advised him, but he was still afraid. He said he was afraid that your brother would reject him because he was barren and had children" Bara said.

"Yes, Mr. Bara, it is unethical in the office to talk about personal matters" Khadijah said.

"You are right" said Bara and then said goodbye.

Khadijah returned to work that had been delayed.

"Firza, why don't you trust me? Is that stupid of you?" ask Edwin.

"Don't make up stories! You and Jeslyn have nothing to do so don't bother us" Firza replied.

"You think I'm going to give up" Edwin said. "Jeslyn, you better be honest with her if you've done it with me" Edwin said.

"Edwin, don't bother us! Papa would have done something reckless if you were still bothering me" Jeslyn said. "Papa will report you to the police, Jeslyn said.

"Hahahaha you think I'm scared, not Jeslyn. You'll definitely find me after the seed grows in your womb" Edwin said, leaving.

Jeslyn was ashamed as some people looked at her with strange looks.

"Just be calm I'll keep you from him" Firza said.

"What if he comes again?" ask Jeslyn.

"Have your papa report him to the police station" Firza replied. "I hope you didn't lie to me, Jes. Because if that happens I will be very disappointed and will not forgive you" Firza said.

Jeslyn was suddenly saddened to hear Firza say that. Moreover, he was lying to Firza.

"You why? How sad?" ask Firza who realizes Jeslyn is sad.

"Oh it's okay" replied Jeslyn.

They chose their engagement ring.

***

Edwin was angry that Jeslyn had dared to threaten him. As an impingement he came to Mumun. Alex is at home.

"You're staying here again, ' said Alex.

Without him realizing that asking Edwin back to his house will make it easier for Edwin to meet Mumun.

"What can I do, Om?" ask Edwin.

"Sure, Win. Instead of you boarding," Alex replied, "you seem to have a problem" Alex said.

"Really, Om. Jeslyn's family already knows I'm Alex's nephew. They broke off the engagement unilaterally. Though for the sake of being able to marry Jeslyn I have to owe moneylenders," said Edwin.

"How much do you owe?" ask Alex.

"Two hundred million, Om. I promise to pay it off in three years" Edwin replied.

"Lighten you back the rest of the money," said Alex.

"Can't, Om. Should be paid by slashing. Even if it can stay with the same total installment," said Edwin.

"Who did you borrow it from?" ask Alex.

"The Romans" replied Edwin.

"I seem to know, I'll help you talk to him" Alex said.

"Thank you, Om," said Edwin.

Mumun who heard Edwin would stay at Alex's house was delighted. He'll be easy to find Edwin.

Edwin went back after Alex went into the room.

"Mun, play yuk!" bring Edwin.

They then went into Mumun's room. Just a few minutes they started the game, Mumun's room door was knocked.

"Moon...Mumun..," call Alex.

Mumun and Edwin were surprised, they immediately ended the game. Edwin hid behind the door when Mumun opened the door.

"Sir Alex, what's wrong?" ask Mumun.

"Mun, accompany me" replied Alex.

"Yes, we went to my father's room" said Mumun.

Mumun immediately pushed Alex's wheelchair towards Alex's room. While Edwin held back his annoyance at being bullied by Alex.

"It's so annoying" said Edwin then out of Mumun's room.

"Mas Edwin, what's out of Mumun's room?" ask Paimin.

"You nanya? You're wondering? Kepo lo," replied Edwin annoyed.
