The Love of the Captain

The Love of the Captain
Rival Love



"I want to go back to my apartment, I can't hide forever like this, I'm guilty of this, and I don't want to be a coward running from responsibility, if the court decides to serve my sentence, I'll accept." Chery said with a resigned mimic.


"Actually I wanted to hold you back, but when I realized that I was nobody to you, it felt strange and inappropriate, I can only support whatever your decision is and of course hope you are always okay wherever you are." Sean was left lethargic when Chery said she no longer wanted to be in her apartment.


"Anyway, I'm your lawyer, I'll always be on your side no matter what, and remember to call me if you need help, 7x24 hours when I'm ready for you." Connect Sean.


Chery's smile was finally relieved, because Sean did not hinder his desire to return to his apartment, to be honest, not because Chery was not at home or reluctant to stay longer in Sean's apartment, he said, only, he wants to learn more to face reality, not to deny or hide from reality, because for him reality, as bitter as anything is to be faced, not to be avoided.


He just wanted to learn independently, since Dion left him, he felt he had no one to rely on but to rely on his own ability, he did not want to be spoiled and be with others, he did not want to be spoiled and be with others, though he was sure Sean also sincerely wanted to help him.


"Sean, why are you so nice to me?" one important thing that Chery always forgot to ask her handsome lawyer, she was a little curious about the good attitude Sean showed her.


Sean came several times as his hero, even when no lawyer was willing to handle his case, Sean came with his own initiative without Chery asking.


"Obviously because you're rich and have a lot of money, so I won't be in vain to help you, I'm sure you'll pay me very dearly if I win your case, and one more thing, my prestige will rise, it's called a marketing strategy," Seloroh Sean with the end of a crisp laugh at the end of his sentence.


"You're trying to extort unemployment like me? I don't have a job right now, I'm not even sure, even if I'm released from the charges later, there will be a producer who offers me a role back, lest you ask for a fee with my body?" Chery replies to Sean's joke with her joke as well while feigning fear and covering her front body with both hands, leaving them both wide-eyed.


"I once failed to protect my loved ones, so he fell into promiscuity and became a drug slave. To be honest, I was approaching you for a certain purpose, just say revenge, but when I get to know you more, it seems like you're not supposed to be my target."


"What's that about your wife?" guess Chery, but Sean didn't answer anything, he just fell silent without responding to Chery's question at all.


"Sean, I just realized, all this time I've never heard of you ever getting married, not even one media ever discuss about your status, but you claim to be a widower?" Chery only realized, with Sean's big name as a famous lawyer and also the son of a senior politician, it seems he had never heard or seen Sean's wife in the news media, or is he too busy and less updated about it?


"That's a sign that I'm great, so that I can hide my ex-wife's identity so well that our marriage doesn't get smelled by the media at all." Sean said without explaining anything.


"Wait, why do so many people approach me just for wanting revenge on me? Am I that bad?" Chery is wide-eyed, why does she feel both Arjuna and Sean are approaching her just because there is an evil purpose.


"Maybe your ancestors used to commit so many sins that you have to bear the karma!" sean Ledek.


"Sean, I'm serious, did I ever hurt you without me knowing, or did I ever make a mistake with you? Why do you want to take revenge on me?" chery's face turned very serious at this moment.


"Not you, exactly your stepfather,"


"Hasan?" shocked Chery.


"Hemh, he. But please don't ask me why, for now I can't tell you, just, I think the three of us are the same." Sean's riddles.


"Three of us? Who else does he mean besides us?" Chery looks confused.


"What does Arjuna and Hasan have to do?" Chery still does not understand the purpose and direction of Sean's conversation.


"I got this from the hospital that handled you the night of the accident." Sean shows several sheets of paper containing the same information so as not to explain anything to Chery because the girl feels ordinary and does not understand about the problems of medical science.


"This is the result of your blood test at that time, there is a content of illegal drugs and also stimulants on the results of your blood test that night, according to your story, according to your story, you feel dizzy after drinking the drink served at your stepfather's house, and Hasan tries to-"


"Making me unconscious and raping me? Bastard, he really is a demon!" chery Umpat.


"That's what I'm fighting for and want me to reveal the truth, at least your punishment can be lightened, if not pure free, but you take it easy, you take it easy, I've never lost my case this whole time." Sean said arrogantly.

"Sorry miss, since yesterday there was a man who kept looking and waiting for you here, and we kept him in the security room because he didn't want to go and insisted on waiting for you here." obviously the apartment manager when Chery just arrived at her exclusive apartment.


"Man?" Chery scrunched her forehead and turned her head towards Sean, she became a bit paranoid with strangers, especially after the attempted assault on him at Dion's funeral, she became more and more wary of strangers.


"Why don't you report it to the police, who knows he's malicious." Said Sean.


"The man said he was familiar with Miss Chery and he was also a former police officer who deserted from the service, but so far the man was nice." The officer said plainly.


"Which is still a cop there's no guarantee he's good, let alone a desertion," cynical Sean.


"That guy knows me? What's name?" Chery was curious.


"Tores, he said he was from--"


"Tore? I know him, tell him to come up here." Chery said, her face turned very excited.


"Chery, don't carelessly put people in, it's dangerous" Sean protested in disagreement with Chery's attitude, telling the officer to call Tores to his unit.


"He's not a bad guy, he's my friend, I trust him."


The debate between Chery and Sean had to stop when the doorbell rang.


"Miss, I miss you!" Tores spread her arms wide, but her desire to embrace Chery soon became extinct as Sean stood before her at this moment and tapped her with a fierce gaze.


"Who is this man Chery, handsome but his gaze creepy, is he the commander's love rival?" ask Tores cuek.
