The smile that had been on Bellina's lips had now disappeared when she opened the scroll that was supposed to be a child status appointment letter, but it was not. The paper was a warrant for his arrest.
"Ma, Pa, what are you doing? Didn't you promise to raise me as a child?" bellina asked quietly, half-whispering and gripping, Madam Rini asked.
Madam Rini took her hand off Bellina, she no longer showed her kind and warm attitude towards the niece.
"Let go of my hand! And don't call me Mama. I've never had a child like you!" said Mrs Rini while throwing her hand violently to almost make Bellina stagger back.
The invited guests were taken aback by the sight they were witnessing on stage. On average they look while whispering to their fellow guests. Meanwhile, Filia just fell silent without wanting to heed the whispers of the guests and just focused on seeing mama, papa and Bellina who were still arguing in front of there.
"What's wrong with your attitude?" Bellina was inflamed when she received rough treatment from Mrs Rini.
"What the fuck? You're the fuck, huh? You framed my son and sold him to a striped-nose man." Lady Rini stepped closer to Bellina before she finally slapped her niece's smooth and well-groomed face and again said, "I wouldn't consider you my son, please leave here!" continued Madam Rini while pointing at Bellina's face.
Bellina's shock not only reached there, while still in shock, suddenly came a group of police who went up on stage and immediately arrested her.
"Ma–Mama?" Bellina looked at Madam Rini with a pityful and pleading gaze. "Mama please don't do this to me, I beg you" he said, shaking his hand from the police.
"There's no reason for me not to put you in jail, Bellina! Your attitude has gone too far with my son, making him suffer. You've manipulated all of my husband's company's money, and you've taken some of the profits from the salons and boutiques I own without my knowledge." Lady Rini no longer showed her gentle gaze to the niece, she was already angry and disappointed with Bellina.
"Ma ...."
Now it's Mr. Dean's turn to be approached by Bellina, the young woman hopes that her cousin Papa will still help her and release her from the police who are still clutching her hand.
"Don't call me 'Papa'. You are not my son and will never be my son." Mr. Dean threw his face the other way, lest he stare at Bellina who was cribbing at him.
"Pa, Ma, you can't do this to me." Bellina was still strong enough to get away from those cops.
"Hurry up, take him and all his minions!" mr. Dean's orders to some of the cops who were there.
"Good, Sir."
The policeman immediately passed while carrying Bellina in their hands. However, just a few steps away, Bellina suddenly shouted, "Om Dean, I won't let you off the hook this time! I know your big secret!"
The atmosphere that was once noisy, now suddenly quiet.originally the gaze of the invited guests who had been directed at Bellina, now the gaze was directed at Mr. Dean. Likewise with Mrs Rini who directly looked at her husband.
"What did Bellina mean, Pa? What is Papa keeping from me?" madam Rini asked a little whisper to her husband.
Mr. Dean shook his head while looking in surprise at Mrs Rini, he felt he had no secrets. "Papa doesn't have any secrets, Ma."
Bellina smiled obliquely while holding back the numbness that spread across her cheeks. "I'm not trying to instigate you at all, Auntie. What I said was the truth. Dean had a daughter with another daughter, before he married Auntie. If Aunt doesn't trust me, go ahead. Now that kid is here with my mama and maybe he'll be dead soon."
Both Mrs Rini, Mr Dean, and Filia were shocked by the words her niece had just spoken. Filia who had just been silent, now stepped forward towards her parents who were dealing with Bellina.
"What do you mean, huh?" asked Filia furiously.
Bellina smiled a cynical smile when she saw the look on Filia's face that was furious with her. "I'm not really lying, Philia. You do have an older brother from your father. It's just that his mother died because your father didn't want to marry him and instead chose your mother."
Another case with Mr. Dean, the middle-aged man was silent stiff while continuing to remember the woman who had been his past. It's impossible if Vera gives birth, right? ask in the heart.
Madam Rini stared intently at her husband, she still could not believe the booze thrown by her nephew. "Pa, that's not true, is it? Papa never betrayed me, did he?" madam Rini asked as she shook the shoulder of her husband who was still silent.
"A–ku ... I .. I never betrayed you, Ma. But ...."
Mr. Dean hung up his words, he still doubted if the child was his.
"But what, Pa?" asked Madam Rini impatiently.
Philia also stared and waited for the words to come out of her papa. Master Dean lowered his head deeply before saying, "You know, right, Ma. We used to get married because we were betrothed and at that time you also knew I was in a relationship with someone?"
Madam Rini was silent hearing the question from the husband. She did remember, when they married her husband did not love her as much as today, because it was still imagined by the woman who became her past.
"La–lalu, a–what happened between you?" Madam Rini asked stammeringly. His voice seemed to be stuck between the throat, he was still shocked because he did not know about this problem.
"Me and Vera .. we ...." Mr. Dean was not able to continue his words, he himself did not expect if his former lover had been pregnant with his child.
Madam Rini who had already been emotionally immediately pulled her husband's hand to stay away from the guests, in her heart was really disappointed by the husband's dishonest attitude from the beginning to her. Though their marriage had lasted for about twenty-one years, but during that time Mr. Dean never said anything.
Filia, who saw her parents leave, apologized to the guests for witnessing the wearing off event. Afterwards, he also asked the bodyguards assigned to his parents to disperse them all.
"Sir, please disperse those guests, yes! I had to catch up with Mama and Papa," orders Filia who was immediately taken in by the bodyguards of her parents.
"Good, Miss."
Bellina grinned as she watched the show she was hosting was ruined and not only her was being humiliated. However, both of his cousin's parents managed to drag and bear the shame, just like him..
See, I'm not the only one who bears shame here. But they also felt what I was feeling now, the inner Bellina when she saw the anxious face of Philia who was talking to the guards.
