The King's

Episode 52

Harold saw the wedding photo of his daughter. In the photo, Layla looks unhappy with her marriage. Only a fool doesn't realize it. And finally, his family took advantage of this and asked for a family dinner today. There will be company talks later. With just five months of training to be the company's leader, could Zahid, his son-in-law be able to deal with Harold's family's attacks?

Having a child after almost forty years of age does not make him a good father. He was busy thinking of advancing the company for his own ego. And forget the most important part of his life. Now, his daughter is still twenty years old and is not ready to face everything she has experienced. Especially his family's insistence on choosing one of his evil nephews to become President Director of the Graham Real Estate Company.

"I have made dinner today to Mr and Mrs Young" reported Frank, who had just entered his room

"What does Zahid think?"

"It seems like Young Master thinks of it as ordinary"

"really? It's shocking"

"Do you trust the Young Master to face this dinner?"

"We'll see her tonight. Be patient"

Harold put his daughter's wedding photo on the table and limped towards the sofa. When deciding to quit his job, Harold felt more relaxed and comfortable at home. Getting service from a wife who has always been numbered duakan by himself.

"Honey" Harold saw the woman he loved enter the room.

"What's wrong?"

"Frank, I didn't know you were here"

"I'm going out, ma'am, sir"

After Frank exits the room, his wife complains about a sudden dinner being held.

"I haven't prepared a dress yet, what will we use later?"

"Just calm. What's gonna be pretty when you wear it"

"What's? You must be mocking me"

Harold smiled and then suddenly fell silent because he felt a great pain in his leg. The side effects of the accident that he experienced ten years ago began to make his body fragile.

"What's wrong?" ask his wife to worry.

"There's nothing. I was just thinking which other place we haven't been"

"You're this, I'm worried about dinner today but ... "

"Calm down. This time we won't be the main cast"

"That's what I'm worried about. Will Layla and Zahid be okay?"

Graham hugged the wife who had accompanied him for more than thirty years while still enduring pain.

Layla got home with a complicated feeling. He did not manage to persuade the man not to attend today's dinner. Also accept something that seems more dangerous than a family dinner. Why did he do all that? And why did she take her husband's kisses and touches for granted? It seemed like he was learning too much and wanted a strong diversion. No. .. can't. He must focus on studying and completing his studies. Only then can he get out of this house and build the life he wants.

Theory is easier to think about than practice. Because now, Layla is looking at herself in front of the mirror in a red dress that looks more mature than her age. This dress intersects low on the back, and wraps its body tightly.

"What's this?" ask the waiter who brought her a dress.

"Young Master brought this dress to you Madam. The young lady looks so pretty"

Layla was unhappy with her servant's praise, although it was true. He looks more different than usual.

"Young Master is waiting for you downstairs"

Layla had forgotten that the man had been home since this afternoon.

"Yes, I'll be down in a minute"

Layla came down from her room and saw Mr. Zahid in his dark suit. How could the man look tall and handsome tonight?

"You're beautiful" praised the man for bringing heat into Layla's body.

"We have to go now" Layla replied before her face flushed red like her dress.

"The main house is very close. Do you want to walk?"

Layla was surprised, she thought Mr. Zahid was a person who did not like to walk. Probably because of his previous job.

"Can"

They ended up walking down a neat meadow around the house, this time with little care because they were in the neighborhood of Graham's house.

"Do you know the purpose of having dinner this time?" ask Mr. Zahid to surprise Layla. He recalled again the matter of his father's greedy and evil brother.

"alright. Then, what are you getting ready for after dinner tonight?"

"What?"

Mr. Zahid stopped stepping making Layla a little afraid to think about the time after dinner.

"Don't you forget you promised me something?" said the man then grabbed Layla's body easily.

"We are in ... "

"What's? it's just a vast empty meadow"

Layla glared, feeling that her former employer was ready to do anything here right now.

"Don't ... "

"Don't what?"

Layla believes that currently Mr. Zahid is teasing her.

"Can we talk about it after dinner?"

Seeing her husband's face in this close distance, made Layla feel ashamed.

"alright. But I won't hold back later"

It's been a creepy night for Layla. Cold sweat began to run down his back when they reached the main house.

One by one the father's brothers and their daughter's sons arrived at the main house. Layla welcomed everything half-heartedly.

"It's the first time we've met you so closely Mr. Abassy" said Layla's older brother, who often offers her first son.

"It's nice to meet you"

Layla thought, this dinner will go bad because of her sudden marriage with Mr. Zahid. Apparently not. Layla's father's family seemed to welcome Mr. Zahid well. Just before the dessert was served, it turned out that my brother could no longer bear to endure his crimes.

"It was strange to see an Abassy lead Graham's company" the father's brother's words were followed by scathing comments from other family members.

"He's my son-in-law" replied the father trying to defend Mr. Zahid. Layla and her mother were silent in their seats.

Talks about the company's successor stalled until there. Dinner was finally over but the family had no desire to go home. Layla and her mother accompany everyone with their fake smiles. Feeling bored, Layla stood up and asked permission to go to the restroom. She passed through a garden full of her cousins, as well as her husband.

"How can an actor like you cheat on our cousin?"

"Yes. Layla is still very small and has no desire to date"

"Right, I don't think the boy likes men"

Layla was eager to go to the group of disrespectful men and beat them one by one.

"Maybe it's because Layla can't resist my charm" said Zahid arrogantly. But it's true. Layla could not resist the face, body and figure of her husband. Even while being the male household assistant.

"Then, what about the other woman?"

"Oh, yes. I saw the news and your lover's face was plastered there"

Layla remembers Sarah's problem. This time how will Mr. Zahid answer his cousin's question?

"Isn't she pretty?" asked Mr. Zahid back to make Layla confused. He tried to hide himself behind the wall.

"What?" cousin exclaimed.

"You asked about the woman. Do you think she's pretty?"

"So, you do have a lover and are still married to Layla?"

"You know a guy like me should have a lot of fans"

Layla could not believe hearing those words from the mouth of her husband, the man who had teased her a moment ago.

"Well, we thought you were the same old Harold it turned out ... "

"It would be futile to have a body and face like me and swear allegiance to only one woman"

All of Layla's male cousins exclaimed, admiring Mr. Zahid's prowess in deceiving her. He didn't want to hear anything more and rushed to go home by himself. He wants to be alone now.
