Gina was silent. It was as if it was frozen in place. There was no desire to answer Clarissa's question. Because he knew, this would definitely hurt his daughter. And he really didn't want to see his daughter's destruction.
"Mommy ... Answer my question Mom. Who is Nadine?" Clarissa asked the same thing.
"Bu_not nobody. Then you should eat first. You haven't eaten yet, have you? Come on, Mommy, accompany you to eat."
"Mom ..." Prevent Clarissa from leaving Gina in front of him.
"Mom, who is Nadine? Why Daddy calls her my daughter. Does Daddy have any other kids besides me? Mommy said I'm Daddy's only child. Who is Nadine?" Clarissa was really curious about Nadine's identity. He felt that his father had changed lately. His mother was hiding something from him.
"Na_Nadine is nobody. He's just someone Daddy knows. Someone who's been helped by Daddy. So Nadine's a nobody." Gina. Let Clarissa stop asking who Nadine is.
"Come on, Mommy accompany you to eat." Gina was about to grab Clarissa's wrist. But Clarissa violently slammed Gina's hand. Until Gina flinched.
"Clarissa." Screeched Gina.
Clarissa grew more and more stares. Gina even had to swallow coarse saliva. If Clarissa wants something, then it must come true.
"Mommy answer my questions first. I heard it with my own ears. Daddy called her my daughter."
Gina swallowed the saliva again. He arranged his breathing. Just eliminate the nervousness that began to whack.
"Nadine it ... It was Daddy's son. Daddy's son with Olivia." Gina finally said.
"That means he's my brother. Brother seayah?"
Gina was confused as to what to answer. Because Nadine is not Clarissa's half-brother. Clarissa is not Hadi's son. If he said that, roughly what Clarissa's reaction would be like.
Gina finally nodded. Maybe this is better for a while. He had to lie to Clarissa. In order to keep Clarissa's feelings from getting hurt.
"What's Nadine like? Mommy met him?"
Gina shakes. "Yet. Last Mommy saw him, when he was a kid."
"But as far as I know, Miss Olive doesn't have a daughter. He lives alone."
"That's it. What do you know about Nadine. She and Olivia have been separated from Daddy for a long time. So they're not part of this family anymore."
Not Clarissa's name if you don't want to find more information. Hadi will introduce Nadine as his daughter to everyone. It will even be broadcast live on all television stations.
That he could not accept. Because Hadi never did anything like that for him. Until now, even only a handful of people who know her as the daughter of Hadi Irawan. N
Hadi was a producer, but never supported his career in the entertainment world. Hadi freed him to do whatever he wanted. But never gave him support in the entertainment world.
Because of that, which sometimes makes Clarissa feel less affection from Hadi as her father. Because it is also sometimes she feels like she is not the daughter of a Hadi Irawan.
When he heard that Hadi had a child other than himself, he could not take it for granted. He was really curious, who is the daughter of his father and Olivia.
.
.
Gina was made restless and agitated by Hadi's warning the other day. Who asked him to get ready, for what. Moreover, Hadi wanted to introduce his daughter to everyone. Gina really doesn't accept it. He can't let that happen. What about her and her daughter, Clarissa.
In the backyard, on the edge of the pool, Gina paced back and forth. Uncertain restlessness thought about his fate. He knows, until this moment Hadi still expects Olivia back into his life.
It's just, losing Nadine who stretched the distance between them all this time. And now Nadine is back. Sure enough, Hadi will try to get close to Olivia again.
Nah!
Can't!
Gina furious. Holding his anger half to death. It would be outrageous to just get rid of it. However, he who has been faithful to accompany Hadi for many years. Not Olivia.
"Hello?" Gina called someone secretly. With the tone of voice made as slow as possible.
"We need to meet now. I have a job for you. Finish it quickly. And you will get the appropriate payment. We meet in a normal place." Gina said slowly.
Without Gina noticing, there was a pair of eyes and a pair of ears that overheard her conversation unintentionally.
.
.
"Tell me what to do." Said the man.
Gina took something from inside her bag. He leaned forward. So that his speech later will not be heard by people, while hanging a piece of photo.
The man took the photo that Gina had placed on him.
"That's Olivia Rajendra. He's a famous designer. You must have seen his face."
The man looked at the photo in his hand.
"What should I do to him?" Ask the man.
"Find out about his daughter. I want to see what his daughter's face looks like. After that I'll tell you what to do next."
The man nodded. At the same time came a male servant with a menu list in his hand.
"What would you like to order, sir, ma'am?" Ask the waiter while thrusting the menu into Gina's hands.
Gina ordered two glasses of juice. The waiter hurried off the table.
Before long the waiter returned with a tray containing two glasses of juice and a box of tissue. After putting the juice on the table, in front of their respective owners, and a tissue box he placed it in the middle of the table. The waiter also left.
"What's my baby? Fits right?" Ask the man after the waiter has passed.
"You've always been concerned with money, money, and money. Have you ever thought about me and Clarissa?" Gina's complaining.
The man smirked thinly.
"I've done a lot for you. Don't forget about it."
"Yes. But you failed to finish the baby. I gave you a lot of money. What a hard thing it is to finish a baby." Gina again complained about the events in the past.
"Importantly the baby disappeared for many years. And your wish is realized. Hadi and his second wife are separated, right?"
"But now that the baby you failed to finish first, he's back again. And Clarissa's life will be at stake. Do you have the heart to see me and your daughter living on the streets?"
The man came back grinning.
"I'll make sure this time I don't fail. I admit, I was careless. I just left the baby for a minute. I was kebelet. As soon as I got back, the baby suddenly disappeared."
"Hold your word, Herman."
"Don't you forget, I've also contributed to your comfortable life so far. Hadi thought my daughter was his daughter. That's why you live with treasure. It's all because I let you live with someone else."
"But everything you do is also not free. I always give you money every month. And this time, I don't want any more failures. Find out where his daughters Hadi and Olivia are."
"good. I'll do it."
"Do it for Clarissa." Firm Gina.
The man named Herman smiled cynically as he received a brown envelope that Gina had proffered.
.
.
A cafe waitress who serves Gina, steps hurriedly towards a black car parked across the street. The waiter tapped on the car window.
The car window went down not half. From inside, an envelope. The waiter received it after he gave a microchip.
"Thank you very much Sir." The waiter then left the parked car.
In a dark-looking car, a man was making a phone call.
"Let's find out who the guy named Herman is. Where he lives, what his job is. Find as much information as possible about him. I'll tell you what to do next once you find it."
The call is over. The next second the car began to drive away from the place.
