THE BACHELOR?!!

Chapter 49. Reception: Reuniting (3)

Brakk!

Suddenly the sound of the door opening was heard. Everyone in the room was shocked. A girl forced her way in despite being prevented. The girl was already unable to bear her harbored emotions all this time.

Plaque!

A loud slap landed on the cheek of Word. Not only that, the girl also beat the chest of Word many times. Bima then stopped the girl. Bima pulled the girl away from the Word. Then the girl suddenly cried.

"You! Really very evil! You let auntie suffer all this time! Aunty always waits for your return but why don't you come back?" The girl was still crying.

"Auntie? Who the hell are you? Whose aunt do you mean?" The Word was completely confused, not understanding what the girl was saying.

"You don't pretend you don't know! Aunt has suffered so much all this time. He was even a prisoner in his own family. Even just to protect auntie, I have to follow mama's crazy plan!" The girl still spilled her emotions.

"Honestly, I don't know you. Just tell me clearly who you are and your aunt is! I am still very tired after searching for my wife who is missing and never found. So, don't add any more trouble!" The middle-aged man was very disappointed with his search results.

"Dad! Are you still looking for mom?" Ros didn't think his father was still looking for his mother.

"Of course it is still! I believe that your mother is still alive! Even though your mother's shirt was found in the rest of the car fire, I remember that it wasn't the shirt your mother was wearing at the time. So, there's a chance your mother is still alive!" Ros felt guilty in her for never once intending to look for her mother.

"Why didn't mom jump in with us, Dad? Had it been that time mom jumped together surely our family would have remained intact." Ros was still disappointed in his mother at the time.

"That's because your mother's leg was pinched. He tried to get his foot out but still couldn't. There's not much time anymore. That's the reason why your mother would rather save you both. You should be proud not disappointed." The girl who was crying again burned with emotion after hearing Ros' words.

"Who are you? Talk as if you knew my mother." Ros curious.

"I'm Magnolia Vincent! I know your mother very well, because your mother is part of the Setiawan Family. I'm so disappointed in you for not thinking about your mother when your mother used to pray for you every day!" Ros and Firman were very surprised to hear the words Magnolia. Not only them, the great-grandson and Joseph who eavesdropped in the distance were also shocked.

"really? Is my wife really alive?" Word directly holds both arms of Magnolia. A smile was painted on the face of the man who looked beginning to wrinkle. There was relief on the face of the Word after knowing that his wife was still alive.

"Auntie does the same with you. He's always looking for you both." Ros's tears trickled when he heard that his mother kept looking for him. He felt sorry for thinking his mother didn't want him. The barrel beside Ros immediately embraced her. Laras understood very well what exactly felt his prospective daughter-in-law. Ros just wanted his mother to survive like him instead of sacrificing herself.

"Ahhhh! It hurts!" Suddenly Ros screamed in pain while holding his head. Everyone is panicking. Word rushed out to call the doctor who was in the next room.

Ros was still screaming in pain. Soon the Word came with the doctor. The doctor gave me a sedative injection. Not long after Ros started to calm down and fall asleep. Magnolia was confused to see her aunt's son like that.

"He's having a memory explosion. It is possible that lost memories of the past are beginning to emerge. That means the antidote works." The newly arrived great-grandson answered Magnolia's question.

Magnolia was surprised by the sudden arrival of Cicit and Joseph.

"Why are you here?" Joseph's question shocked Magnolia.

"I really wanted to go home. When I was in the parking lot I saw the guy get out of the car. So I followed him all the way here!" Magnolia gave an explanation.

"Easy! Let's sit down first! Calm yourself down!" Again they were surprised by the sudden arrival of people. This time it was Andre and Mama. They came because neither the bride nor the bride were at the party.

Now everyone is sitting down. Andre asked Magnolia to start telling stories. Magnolia nodded and began to tell a story.

"Aunt Rose is still alive. The reason why uncle couldn't find him all this time is likely that my mother has been spreading false info. After all, aunt now does not live in the residence of Vincent or Setiawan. Aunty is held captive in a remote house. There's no signal there. The entrance is only one. The reason aunty was arrested for not signing a transfer letter to my mother, Cempaka Putih. Aunty still wants to run the alm will. Grandpa Budi who asked all the property in his name to be donated to an orphanage or used for humanitarian purposes."

"The plan is if aunty wants to transfer rights: her heir, Aunt Cempaka will rebuild the drug factory. According to mama's story, since Grandpa Budi died, the Setiawan Family business went bankrupt. If it wasn't for you marrying Michael Vincent's son, maybe you'd be a vagabond. Mama is very vengeful with the Dinata Family as well as Wirabuana. I was also asked to help otherwise Aunt Rose's life was at stake. I don't really have any feelings for Joseph. I already have my own candidate but my mother disagrees. Mama wants me to marry Joseph in order to gain control of the Winata Family's property." Magnolia finished telling the story.

"Oo.. so the story! It's only fitting that I've only felt sorry for your behavior but didn't hate you!" This time my mother spoke.

"You kind of deliberately did a shitty thing to keep us from liking you, right?!"

"Yes! Aunt's right! I'm sorry, auntie! I just want you guys not to like me so mom doesn't push me on either. I thought after Joseph got married my mother's plan would fail it didn't. Mama took an American businessman to continue the factory. Otherwise his name is Alexander Emperor of the Group. Not only producing drugs but also hallucinogenic drugs and memory remover." Magnolia went back to telling her mother's plan.

"Yes! One of the objects of his experiment was your brother lying on that bed! His memory was slightly disturbed so his emotions were also disturbed. That Ros disappointment you heard wasn't the truth. That was only part of his memory that was lost. He did not remember the series of accidents so well that he could say so. In the past, when Ros came to our family after an accident, he often blamed himself for pinched his mother's leg. He had been trying to help his mother to get her foot out but was still running out of time. In the end, only he and his father survived. That's truth. Isn't that right, uncle Firman?" The great-grandson's eyes looked at the Word asking for justification.

"That's right Magnolia! We were trying to get your aunt's leg pinched but we were running out of time. I was thinking if we should die then we just accept it. But your aunt pushed me and Ros out of the car just before the car went into the abyss. As I was about to save your aunt, there was a sound of an explosion from where your aunt's car had crashed. The next day while inspecting the burning car was left with the rest of your aunt's clothes, but I remember very well that they were not the clothes your aunt wore. That day I scoured the scene to look for your aunt's whereabouts but the results were nil." The word laughs away considering back the incident on the day of the accident.

"That's because aunt's body was already taken by the man that mama told her to kill uncle. The target is uncle. Unexpectedly, aunt even saved uncle. Mama's man was asked to confirm your death at that time. It turned out that aunt survived and managed to get out of the car before the explosion. Aunt passed out not far from the car. Eventually the man stuffed the aunt's clothes in the suitcase into the blaze. The suitcase came out when the car collided with a cliff. After that aunt was hidden in that remote house. I just found out when my mom took me there. But my mom threatened to kill me if she told me that my aunt was still alive. I also sent people to look for you because aunt asked me to." Magnolia ends the story.

"Can you tell me where my wife is? I'll save him!" The Word was very excited this time.

"Could! But I'm asking you to help save one more person who was locked up there. Then help me to hide abroad! I was tired of all my mother's behavior. I don't care anymore either. How's it?"

"All right!" This time Joseph agreed.
