Recky looked at her brother seriously, as it was often thought of when he saw what his mother had done to them. But when he saw his face in the mirror, his doubts were dashed. His face, especially his eyes and nose were similar to his mother's.

"So he's so mean. I only dared to hit the wall. Eeh.., he can have a plan for wretched people, until he dies, again. I asked Papa that time, I am their child or not. Especially, what a demon child is. I was not picked up on the side of the road. I once gave it to that other demonic woman." Recky said he was still serious while recalling his conversation with his Papa by the lake when he was asked to marry Liana.

"Yaaa, probably because more Biantra blood is flowing in our bodies. Perhaps also, because it is often taken care of by servants or we do not play and gather with the big Opa family. Usually, the environment in which we often gather, can affect our attitudes and behavior." Aaric said as he digested what he and Recky said.

Recky remembers the times when they were children and teenagers. If she's not happy to be with her Mama's family, her brother isn't there either. They were more often at home with the servants, while Mama and Papa went to gather with the Opanya family.

"Yes, Brother. I realized that. I am grateful to be able to get together and make friends with good people. Maybe that's what makes me think of the good side." Recky said, remembering Carren. Without realizing it he was the one who made him able to do many good things to be with him.

"You don't have to think about Naina's sister. Let the Hutama family decide, want to be flanked by the devil and his extended family. I'm talking to you, because if the worst thing happened, it would have the biggest impact on you. Biantra's name is attached to you. You learned to shut your ears to the bad things that will be addressed to you."

"I don't know how angry Hutama's family is when it comes to knowing the truth." Said Aaric. Because he who knew it for the first time was very angry. Especially with the Hutama family.

"Did you know it was okay?" Recky asked slowly, as she knew her brother's relationship with Naina.

"It's okay, you say? I almost shot dead the man who did it. Yes, thankfully, God still reminds me not to do that. Because I'll be just as bad as him. I've already classified his departure. Maybe his life path is like that."

"Let the Hutama family decide. If we are to be prosecuted and imprison them, we must be ready. Let God's justice be done for them. What I'm dealing with right now is a company matter." Aaric said seriously. After meeting Carren, she realizes that since Naina's death, she is far from God. He started thinking about it when he saw Carren's attitude.

Later Aaric recounted what was going on with Biantra Group and its shares to Recky. What Aaric would do to save her and also think of her Mama and her extended family from there.

Recky heard everything Aaric said seriously. He had not expected, so much chaos was caused by his disappearance. Especially for Biantra and Tarikalla family companies.

"With Papa's departure to Malang, what about the office, Sis? Who replaced Papa, or the devil himself who managed it?" Recky asked after Aaric explained everything that had happened.

"According to Jekob's research, it looks like Om Hans and his children will replace Papa. Because the devil is not conspiring to take care of the company." Aaric submitted the results of the Jekob investigation.

Recky was surprised to hear that, because he knew that his Papa's hard work made the company stable and growing. Now it must be held by someone else. She is increasingly aware, the complexity that is being faced by her brother takes care of the company and the problems of her marriage.

"Sister, did my decision to get married leave the company in such a mess?" Recky asked hesitantly with his thoughts.

"If Tarikalla's side, I don't want to get dizzy. I'll take care of him for daring to use you. They deliberately want to use your marriage to secure the company. The devil thought, as the fall of the durian collapsed. If you're married to Tarikalla's daughter, it could help secure Biantra."

"These two companies are not sick. Sama2 needs fresh funding to keep both companies stable. How stupid the devil was, already selling his son but there was no benefit to his company."

"Sama-sama wants to take advantage of each other, but does not investigate the health of their respective companies. Maybe Tarikalla saw Sunijaya's big name. Though now, Sunijaya remains strong because of the existence of Biantra Group." Aaric relayed the information obtained by Jekob.

"According to Papa, the company was fine when I got there helping him. Was there a leak inside that made the company sick?" Tanya Recky began to think about what her brother had said.

"Jekob is investigating. There may be a transfer of company funds lately. Later after the shareholder meeting, we'll know where the leak is."

"The devil has sold many properties to buy the company's shares back, so that they are still in control of Biantra. The one that was sold, was a villa in Sentul." Said Aaric, as he knew it.

Recky was surprised to hear that and also felt sad to lose the villa he loved as a place of rest and also his hiding place. But he could understand, his mother sold it to save the source of his family's power.

"Sister, is Papa not involved in the problems faced by the Biantra company?" Recky asked, as he suddenly recalled the conversation with his Papa at the villa when Aaric was talking about the villa in Sentul.

"What do you mean by asking that? Do you know something I don't?" Aaric asked while looking at Recky seriously.

"Look, Brother. Last time you said the devil was selling villas in Sentul, I remembered Papa's talk when he came to follow me to the villa that night. When I got angry I was framed for proposing to that demon and hitting the wall." Recky spoke slowly, remembering what his father had said.

"What did you say to me?" Ask Aaric, curious.

"Papa said, Papa survived all this time living and working in Biantra company because he wanted our lives both good and successful. But after Brother's departure, Papa started to think of the others. Papa still survives because of me, but after knowing I can work well outside the Biantra company and the Opa family, Papa starts making decisions and is setting them up." Recky said, continuing to remember what his father said. Aaric took Recky seriously.

"Papa said, now he is trying to make important decisions for Papa's life. After decades of living the lives of others. Papa's already at the point of having to determine what's best for Papa to live." Recky said sure of what his father said.

Aaric gasped at what Recky said. "You don't have to think negatively about Papa's words. Maybe what Papa said was done now. Go home to Malang and leave all his fancy life and work." Aaric prevents Recky from thinking negatively about their Papa.

"According to the current information, it seems there are funds used by the devil and his family to pay people to do dirty work using company funds. You know for yourself, that demon can't resist all of Opa's wishes." Aaric conveys the information and tries to convince Recky. But in his heart, he would have Jekob investigate the information from Recky about his Papa.
