The Bridge Of Love
CHAPTER 20 Hotpot



“Who would dare to do this?” ask Andy to Prambudi.


“Sorry Sir, for this time, I cannot help,” Prambudi said.


“How can it?” andi asked with restraining emotions. He couldn't get his men out at the police station.


“This is according to the orders of the superiors. There is someone behind this incident, there is no way I violated it, because it is very clear what consequences I must accept,” explained Prambudi. He glanced at Andy. “It seems, this time you wrongly offended someone,” he added.


Andy just clenched his hand. Who is the man behind the carnation? How could there be anyone who could control Prambudi other than himself. Moreover, Prambudi could not help him because there was another party who was more powerful.

A dark night, does not mean continuous sadness. Previously, Anyelir had indeed prepared a divorce lawsuit on Chrysanthemum. Today, a divorce lawsuit was filed for Carnation on Chrysanthemum.


Chrysanthemums tore divorce papers sent by Carnations. He picked up his phone and contacted Carnations. However, not touching the green icon, the door of the room is open. Albert came to Chrysanthemum.


“What do you bring?” ask the detective.


“All about your wife,” replied Albert.


Chrysanthemums read the results obtained from his hired detective. He read in detail the report given by Albert.


“Come out,” lirih Chrysanthemum.


Albert retreated, he only glanced at his regretful-looking boss. Chrysanthemum to read twice the results of the report from Albert.


His guess was correct, his wife recklessly jumped off the bridge. She was taken by Petra to Singapore and was in a coma for 10 months. That's the report from Albert.


The chrysanthemum closed its eyes. Her tears back. Why was he so rash. He should have been thinking clearly. He knew his wife never thought long. His wife was weak and quickly desperate.


Is that how deep your love for me is? Now, I will show you how much I love you.


...***...


"It looks like there's a new occupant" Renan said after he and Carnation exited the elevator. In his hand was a bag of groceries.


On Sunday, they decided to go shopping to fill the fridge. Carnations do not like there are household assistants who live in his apartment. He decided to clean his own apartment. Yes, he proved that he can be independent.


"That's noisy. It's like remodeling the contents of an apartment, "' Carnations snorted.


His sleep is not sound, it has been two nights the apartment unit in front of him makes a noise.


Not noise because of the party. The hammer blow and also the sound of the drill grazed the wall. The squeaking sound of furniture being moved is the reason Carnations do not sleep comfortably.


Renan grinned. "Isn't the soundproofing in this apartment very good? I don't hear any noise when we're inside. Except right now, we're outside" Renan said.


Carnations just glare. Yeah, he can't sleep not because of the noise, it's just his excuse. The main reason it is difficult to sleep is because it is always thought of her ex-husband.


"Looks like you should clean your ears!" grunts Carnations, looking for excuses.


"Excuse me," said one worker carrying a sofa that looked luxurious.


Suddenly, Carnations and Renan pull over giving way to the workers. They saw workers putting things into the apartment.


"It looks like the rich are moving in" Renan said. He opened the apartment door.


"Are we not rich?" grunts Carnations. They entered the apartment unit. Carnations open the hoodie jacket used and leave a tank top shirt.


"Yes, at least we're not starving." Renan looked at the carnation. "Oh yeah, what about Andy?" tanyanya was a little screaming. He headed to the kitchen and placed the items on the kitchen table.


Carnations have been told about Yudha, Andy's men who tried to kidnap him. "Yudha is still languishing. Andy is still free. Yudha must have given up so she wouldn't pull Andy into the bui."


"Who helped you?" renan asked, his hand was still actively opening the grocery bag.


"Police," said Anyelir approached Renan and helped tidy up the groceries.


"That's not what I mean."


Carnation grunting. "The gravestone came by accident because it met Vinnie on the street. But before, Vinnie had already reported to the police."


"Andy is a businessman who stands on two sides. Black and white is the world. Judging from his identity, Yudha should have easily walked out of the police station. There's no way we're still in jail, unless there's someone more powerful who can't help Andy."


"Vil will surely lose to the truth. Maybe the police are overhauling the regulations. Until, there is no more privilege of people who claim to be in power," said Anyelir while compiling cooking ingredients into the refrigerator.


"But, that's very unlikely" Renan said.


"Nothing is impossible" concluded Anyelir. "Ah, that was shit that night. It's not that the cooperation even got a disaster!" whistling Carnations.


"I'm sorry I didn't tell you about Andy."


"No problem, I didn't tell you I met him either."


"Next time, you have to tell me if you want to meet a business associate."


"Yes, yeah, yeah. By the way, what are we cooking today?"


"How about a hotpot?"


"Can!" anyelir sumringah. Her cousin is very good at cooking. Renan's cooking skills are better than Chrysanthemums.


"Let's help me" Renan asked.


Carnations and Renan prepared one type of cuisine for their lunch.


"How much are you cutting?" ask Carnation, in his hand there is tofu.


"The boxes are only moderate," said Renan while making condiments for hotpot sauce. "Do you want to be spicy or not?"


"Surely spicy," said Carnation.


"We forgot to buy soy sauce."


"Can you go downstairs and buy it? The mini market below sells it," pinta Renan as he grinds his eyes.


Carnations show his lazy face. "Do you have to wear that? Even if it's only on the ground floor, you still have to walk there!"


"Sesame oil, chili oil, soy sauce, garlic, vinegar, pepper sauce, seafood sauce, chives. That's what's mandatory, otherwise it won't taste good."


"Alright, alright. I bought!" Carnations grabbed back his hoodie jacket and put it on, covering his head with the hoodie. Dizziness hearing his cousin's babble.


Carnation out of the apartment and towards the mini market on the lower floor. By having to walk gontai looking for soy sauce.


It is not difficult to find the items that are sought. He left immediately after getting the soy sauce. The shelves contain goods sold neatly arranged.


He passed the snack line. His eyes were fixed on a snack made of potatoes. Carnations exhale her breath, the husband's favorite potato chips. However, these foods contain a lot of MSG. However, it did not stop Chrysanthemum from consuming it.


His hand reached out to pick up the potato chips. His hands came into contact with the hands of others who were also eyeing his potato chips.


Carnations are upset that the guy didn't take off his potato chips. He looked to the side. "What are you doing here?" asked Anyelir cynically looking at the person who was fighting over potato chips with him.


"Of course, shopping" replied Chrysanthemum.


"Are you a stalker?" tanya Anyelir raised her voice an octave.


"Is this your mini market?" ask the Chrysanthemum back.


"There are many mini markets in the city. Why should I come here? This mini market is intended for apartment residents. Don't tell me you accidentally walked by and stopped shopping. That seems to make excuses!"


"You're too confident!" Chrysanthemum squinted his eyes. He immediately took the potato chips, then left the Carnation.


Carnations snorted because Chrysanthemums just left. He deliberately slowed his pace because Chrysanthemum first headed for the cashier. After making sure Chrysanthemum out of the mini market. New carnations pay for their groceries.


Carnations returned to the apartment with an upset heart. "This," he said while giving soy sauce.


"Why grim?" asked Renan still with the focus on his cooking.


"Inadvertently met a mad dog!" grunts Carnations.


"How can there be stray dogs here?"


"Don't stray dogs, zombies can exist!"


"Too many dramas!" tease Renan. "Food is ready. I'm moving to the table first."


Carnations smiled broadly at the hotpot in front of him. Shrimp, suki meat, enoki mushrooms, meatballs in the hotpot are very appetizing.


"Let's eat!" exciting Carnation.


"Wash your hands first."


"It."


Carnations instantly took the contents of the hotpot into his small bowl. The sound of bells disrupts their eating activities.


"Who is visiting" murmured Anyelir.


"I'm the only one who opens. You eat," said Renan.


He went to the door to see the guests coming. "You ...."


"Hi, I'm the new neighbor. Come here to say hello." The chrysanthemum thrusts the paper bag at Renan. "This is for you, as a sign of introduction."


"So, you're the new resident in front of this apartment?" tanya Renan while receiving the paper bag of Chrysanthemum.


"Yes, just today. Sorry I wasn't friendly with you before. That's an apology." Chrysanthemum finger pointed at the paper bag in Renan's hand.


Renan opened the paper bag. "That waist?"


"Yes, can't you see it? That's very special."


Renan took out a belt from inside the paper bag. Check the belt. His mouth was open wide. "What is this Gucci Stuart Hughes Belt belt?"


"Yes" replied Chrysanthemum.


Renan looked in amazement at the belt in his hand. Belts with a content of 30 carats of diamond stones and 30 carats of gold, it is no wonder to be named as the most luxurious belt in the world.


The price of a belt priced at 250,000 US dollars. Not that he couldn't afford to buy. However, the belt only produces a few items. I don't know what Chrysanthemum did to get the belt.


"Don't like it?" ask Chrysanthemum.


"Not that. It's just, I didn't think you could get it. This is really a hard thing to get."


"It's good if you like."


"To repay your kindness. Would you like to come eat with us? I happen to be cooking hotpot myself."


"Can?"


"certain."


Chrysanthemum and Renan go inside. Engraved a knotty smile on Chrysanthemum's face. The more he is convinced by Renan who is not likely to love his wife.


They went straight to the kitchen. Yes, Renan and Carnation agreed to eat at the kitchen table instead of the dining table.


"Why so long, who's here?" ask Carnation after hearing the footprints.


The distance of the kitchen and living room is quite far, so that Carnations do not hear the conversation of two men in the doorway.


"Hi," said Chrysanthemum.


"Why did you come here?" ask Carnation.


"He's a new neighbor, I invited him to lunch together," Renan said in response to Carnation's question.


"What?" Carnations surprised. He scratched his ear, making sure he didn't have any hearing problems.
