Richard sat leaning against the plane seat, while covering his eyes with sunglasses, in his ears attached to a headset. Temporal
Niken sat with his eyes fixed on the window of the plane, looking out, the clouds like cotton. Every now and then his eyes glanced to the side, to the figure he so missed. The pain suddenly rippled and tormented her inner self, she felt so helpless that she had to pretend to be someone else for the sake of her own safety and that her child might even be for her husband's sake.
The fear of death for himself might not make him hide, but protecting the fruit of his love with Richard is an inevitability that requires him to swallow all the thorns and enjoy the bloody wounds of holding his heart to embrace his lover
****
After completing the entire series of meetings with clients, reviewing the projects under development then signing the cooperation contract, a week was exceeded in the extraordinary busyness. Natasya was very able to accompany Richard both as a secretary to personal assistant.
Today is their last day in Bali, work is done, only two cities and the last to South Korea, precisely Seoul.
Niken accompanied Richard to lunch. Looks attitude and speech Richard said to Niken began to melt. Sometimes he invites Niken to talk about things outside of work. Even once in a while Richard complained that he wanted him to end his miserable life. The loss of his beloved wife further made the scar drenched in blood and difficult to dry. Richard says he breathes only to be able to watch the man who took the only woman he loves snuggle in prisonĀ .
Niken shed tears. The grate of wounds and pain that were omnipresent was clearly engraved in the eyes of the eagle of men.
Richard occasionally asks Niken to contact the detective who handles the investigation about the perpetrator of his wife's murder. Although the case seemed to be running in place, Richard did not give up.
And this afternoon the news that Richard received from Samuel, the detective who handled the case, was shocking.
The black car that harmed Niken at the top has been found at the disposal of a used car and almost destroyed. But the vigilance of Samuel and three colleagues makes a car that is almost destroyed can be saved. When investigated by the owner of the car were two men named Bimo and Sakti but when they were about to be arrested it turned out that both were found hanging themselves in their respective apartments. The suicide incident is being investigated by authorities.
Richard is increasingly convinced there's more to it than hiding his wife's murder.
Niken shuddered to hear Richard's story about the fate of the two men.
"Sorry Mr. Rich, may I ask you something very personal, maybe I'll be able to help investigate the disappearance of your wife and also who is behind all this."
Richard was silent, doubtful he looked Niken in the eye. For a moment Richard was like drowning in the well, Niken's eyes that always made Richard fall in love every time he looked at him.
Perhaps the charm of the clear lake in the eyes of Niken is the only thing that Niken is not able to hide in his disguise.
But Richard seemed to realize his mistake, it was not the eyes of his wife, but the eyes of Natasha, the Secretary and his personal assistant and bodyguard.
"What do you want to know Natasha!"
Richard turned his gaze in another direction so as not to directly meet with Niken.
Niken trembled when she realized how much her husband missed her.
"Have you tried investigating your own life? the people around you, even your parents? and maybe you can start from remembering your childhood, which, according to your story, was very sad."
Niken looked at Richard's gray face, and the eagle's eyes turned dark.
"Yes, Natasya, I will start all this investigation from there, and I will leave it to you, all this time I have no one who is really on my side, but when I get to know you, I'm sure you can trust me. Be careful to start this investigation, as the first reference you should know them one by one. I have an uncle who always pretends to be nice and pretentious even sometimes more. I have a stepmother who lives in another house, but my stepbrother lives in our house.
On the mother's side there is his belief, Om Helmi Subrata, he has long been on the mother's side, there are some more people that I am not so familiar, on the father's side there is his father Ersa, there is a father, he is a well-known politician and will run for Governor. And a well-known lawyer is also a judge who is currently in power. I'll give you their details in one book, so you can get to know them."
Richard leaned his back against the back of the chair in the VVIP room, where they had lunch.
"What about Miss
Cyntia?"
Richard took a deep breath.
Niken was pensive to think about the fact that Aunt Cyntia claimed to be a mother for decades. It feels very strange, why Aunt Cyntia who works part-time as a freelance accountant can afford her life properly. But the job was not really done.
It was as if his bank account was never empty. Niken believes there is a connection between Aunt Cyntia and her lost past.
"Natasha, why are you daydreaming to not hear my words."
Richard looked angrily at Niken
Niken gasped and apologized.
"I'm thinking about where I started investigating this."
Niken gave an excuse.
"To this day quite up here, remember not to betray my trust, I can be clammy and dark in the eyes. And I can't guarantee you survival if you dare to play on two legs."
Richard stood up and left Niken still thinking about the situation he was facing.
Richard suddenly turned to Niken and showed his phone ringing.
Richard sat down and received the call from Samuel.
"Yes Sam, what's wrong?"
Richard me loudspeaker his cell phone.
"Bimo and Sakti were indeed killed, we found a flower-carved pendant in Bimo's apartment, like an unusual pendant, after I checked the price was fantastic. 1M, and this limited edition there are only three produced in the world."
Samuel was silent for a moment.
"You mean, the owner of the locket is their killer?"
Samuel assented.
Niken and Richard exchanged a glance.
"Have you met the owner?" richard asked uneasily and fretfully immeasurable.
"It's hard, the designer is a foreigner, and according to the info we know he's vacationing in South Korea. But we'll wait for him to return to Jakarta."
Samuel asked Richard to be patient.
Before Samuel hung up the phone, Richard asked for the identity of the jewelry designer. And then he asked for a meeting schedule in two major cities in Indonesia to be suspended, to be first
to South Korea, which is supposed to be to South Korea at the end of its business trip.
To be continue, though,
The next?!
