The Cost of Trust

Part 231's

"Daddy!!", cried Sharen to Ronald, who was busy with some files on his desk.

"Why son?", asked Ronald. Then tidied up some files on his desk.

"What did Daddy do until Julian decided to call off our engagement Dad????!!!", Sharen shouted.

"Julian broke off your engagement ? How dare he. He thought he was as great as what?!", said Ronald emotionally.

"Sharen asks Daddy, what did Daddy do until Julian got angry with Sharen and...and....cancel our years old engagement dad?!"

"What did he say? How come he's gonna cancel it!"

"Stop Dad! Don't pretend you don't know what Sharen's asking."

Ronald approached his daughter who was being emotionally upset.

"You're gonna tell Daddy that Julian changed his attitude since the new boss. And..he admires your boss, doesn't he?"

"Yes dad! But what did Daddy do until Julian was so angry with Sharen dad? Julian is cold, but he's never been rough with Sharen!"

"What did he do to you, son?" Ronald examines his daughter's increasingly covered body.

"Stop Dad! stop!", now Sharen is flicking Ronald's hand off his shoulder.

"Son....!"

"Tell Sharen! What Daddy's done!", Sharen's breath hunts. He just wanted to hear an explanation from his dad. Julian is angry and asks her to cancel her engagement that has been established for the past two years. Julian requested that Sharen ask his Daddy directly.

"All right.. all right! Daddy told Daddy's men to finish off your boss. Satisfied!", said Ronald, putting both hands on the table.

"What??? What do you mean Dad??", asked Sharen who did not understand.

Does this have anything to do with Dian not getting into the office these few days? And.. about the kasak kusuk one of the staff who planned to be at home, what has this to do with his Daddy?

"Clearly on Sharen Dad!", now Sharen's voice softened.

Ronald breathed a rough breath.

"Daddy just wants to make Daddy's daughter happy. The boy tried to snatch your happiness, snatching Julian's attention from you son!"

"Dad! Sharen doesn't like Dian because she's made Julian change his attitude towards me."

"Daddy just wants the best for Daddy's daughter! What's wrong huh?"

"Dad! It's not the happiness that Sharen gets with Daddy's actions like this. There are...Julian was getting away from Sharen dad!", Sharen shouted as she rubbed her pretty face rough.

"Yes, that man is left. What a hard thing! There are still a lot of guys who are much better than Julian. Even these two years he's still hanging you, right? Where...how did he try to marry you, son??"

"Dad! Could Daddy say that? Sharen loves Julian dad!"

"What love?! He doesn't even think you exist!!!"

"Enough dad! Please don't do stupid things anymore. Especially a criminal like this Dad! To kill another person's life?"

Ronald did not answer.

"Does this have anything to do with Dian not getting into the office these few days? Is he badly injured dad!"

"Yes maybe. Unfortunately, he did not die immediately. Only her fetus died."

"Dad!!!!"

"Stop yelling at Daddy Sharen!!!"

"Dad....Daddy almost killed Dian dad just because of Daddy's prejudice? Oh my.....!"

"You know, son! The mother of that woman who had made aunty Margaret commit suicide!"

Sharen's eyes are wide open!

"What does Daddy mean?"

"Yes. Dian's her daughter's a pearl. The love of stevan!"

Sharen covered both of his hands.

"Kendra had been covering up her identity all along. Until Daddy can just start Daddy's revenge on him?!"

"Enough dad! never do such foolishness again."

"You don't have to interfere. If only Dian would fight Daddy, he would have to prepare for reality. His family will be slowly destroyed. Like the pearls did to your aunty family."

"Oh my God Dad!!!", Sharen could no longer say anything. He left his room full of emotions and tears.

Unexpectedly, Julian was in front of him. Sharen's eyes glazed over.

Julian grabbed Sharen in his arms.

" I'm sorry Baby!", holding Sharen in his arms.

Sharen drowned his face in the chest of the man he loved so much.

"We go!", Julian broke his embrace. Sharen's hand came out of Ronald's office.

"Eat already?" ask Julian.

Sharen.

"Im sorry! All this time my attitude was too bad for you."

"Yes", Sharen said briefly. Then his eyes closed while leaning.

"You tired?Did I take you directly to your address?"

Sharen opened his eyes.

"Wherever your name comes from!"

Julian rubbed Sharen's head. He just realized. All this time his attitude has hurt him. He assured himself, two years of useful time is enough for him. Tomorrow, she will meet her parents in Singapore if Dian is back at work.

I know he misses me a lot, Julian said.

"We're going home to my apartment!" Julian said, wiping Sharen's head. Sharen's smile expands.

Then he wrestled spoiled to Julian.

You know, what will the next two lovebirds do???

"Moskalamic. Mas....!", greeted Hayu who was surprised suddenly there was a resin in front of him.

"And just got here?"

"Yes mas. Let's go inside."

"Buck...!"

"I'll wait for you until you're ready Stev!"

"Don't expect more from me. Even I still can't forget the late Mas Royan."

"I'm not asking you to forget the late Stev. The ten years you spent together must have had many memories that happened. I just want us to plan our future stev."

Hayu was frozen.
