The final trial that will be the determinant of Zian's life next is just counting the days. If Fahri, Evan and Elma are hit by worries, another case with Zian who can still look relaxed without the slightest burden. In fact, two reliable lawyers who hired Fahri to defend his brother were made head bobble by the behavior of the man who got the nickname 'mafia mafia' it.
Zian has always admitted to every accusation against him. Even though there was no evidence of his involvement, Zian still pleaded guilty.
News of the case that ensnared him went viral all over the country and became a trending topic everywhere.
That morning, Evan was sitting in a cafe located inside the campus. His gaze continued to be fixed on the television screen that was loading news about his brother. His hands clenched furiously, but the look on his face showed sadness.
What do I have to do to help you, brother! What would be the fate of Naya and Deniz if you were sentenced to death.
Not long after, a male figure entered the cafe with a girl. Evan was still daydreaming as the voice of a man broke his daydream.
"Evan?" calling the man made Evan flinch in shock.
"Leo..." Evan was so surprised by his best friend who suddenly patted him on the shoulder.
"During did not meet! Looks like you've been very busy lately" Leo said.
"Yes, I'm a little busy. Sit down!" Evan invited his friend to sit with him.
"This is Shena!" Leo introduced the figure of the girl who was the lover of his best friend. They greeted each other that morning.
Leophard Bay Pyordova, a 22-year-old college student, is Evan's old friend, his Junior High School friend. He is the sole heir to the Pyordova kingdom, a giant corporation engaged in various fields. In fact, at least four well-known television stations are his. However, the flurry of the two lately made them rarely meet.
Leo looked in wonder at Evan whose gaze had only been on the news on tv. For a moment, the man froze, when he saw the news on tv.
"Mr Maliq?" Leo muttered that familiar name in his ears. "Mr Maliq...!" Once again, Leo called that name.
Evan turned his gaze to Leo who was so fixated on the news.
"What's wrong?" ask Evan. Shena, Leo's lover looks confused by Leo's facial expression.
"Do you know the person on the news?" Shena asked Leo without noticing the look on Leo's face which suddenly turned sad with her teary eyes. In fact, Leo has not been able to answer questions from Shena.
"He's my poor brother. He was accused of doing something he never did. I'm sure he's innocent. Someone was threatening him, so he was forced to plead guilty" Evan said.
Leo grew increasingly lazy to hear Evan's words. "Mr Maliq is your brother?" tanyanya did not believe. Evan replied with a nod of his head. Then he looked at Leo in wonder.
"By the way, why is your face so shocked?"
"Evan, are you serious, Mr Maliq is your brother?" Leo asked again to make sure he did not hear wrong. He really could not believe that Mr. Maliq turned out to be his best friend's brother.
"Why indeed?"
Leo is still struggling with his own thoughts. Mr. Maliq is someone he will never be able to forget.
"He saved me once in a kidnapping. Even when he helped me, he almost got killed, if not saved by a girl," Leo said, leaving Evan and Shena shocked.
"Y-you mean... My sister..." Evan's voice sounded disjointed, so surprised.
"It happened ten years ago. I was twelve when a man kidnapped me. They want to sell me for whatever purpose. But, just as the transaction was going, a man saved me and took me away from there. I remember very well, they called him Mr. Maliq. He wears a jacket with the letter Z on the back of his back. Yes, he was Mr. Maliq who saved me back then. I can still remember his face a little. He hasn't changed much since these ten years" Leo said at length, without taking his eyes off the television.
"really?" Evan looked very happy with his teary eyes. It was as if she had found a speck of hope to be able to save her brother.
"If it had not been for the good of Mr. Maliq, I would have died at the hands of those wicked men. I've been looking for him to express my gratitude, but until now, I haven't found him."
"Zildjian Maliq Azkara, owner of Kia Group. He is Mr. Maliq, my brother" Evan said. Leo was surprised to hear Evan.
"What's? Mr Maliq is Zildjian Maliq Azkara? Owner of the Kia Foundation, right?" leo asked followed by a nod by Evan. "My mother is one of the regular donors to the Kia Foundation."
As the saying goes, the world is not as wide as the leaves of Moringa. Maybe this term is right for the case that fondles Zian.
"He's been in custody for two years. In a few days, a verdict will be held. All charges have been directed against him. My brother, forced to confess all the deeds he never did. Most likely, he will be sentenced to death, "Evan looks very sad to say that.
"While the tv station that contains the news is yours!" said Evan.
Leo looked back at the tv with a face that was clearly furious. He then glanced at Evan and Shena alternately, "Evan, I will do whatever I can to free Mr. Maliq from all charges. I won't let anyone as good as Mr. Maliq be sentenced to death."
"But how? Even if you're a witness for my brother, but if you're the only one, it won't be enough to set him free."
Leo then smiled faintly, "You take it easy, Evan! I'll think of a way."
I don't know what plan Leo is thinking. Clearly, Leo and his family were not random people. Shena, shudder in horror at Leo's expression. For him, sometimes Leo is a terrible person under certain circumstances.
"The 12-year-old Leo may not be able to do anything for Mr. Maliq. But the 22-year-old Leo can do anything for him" Leo said later.
While Evan, still guessing at heart, plans what Leo has to save Zian, at least from the death penalty.
"Tell me if you need anything! I am ready to help in any case. I can also hire the best lawyer for Mr. Maliq."
"We've hired the services of two of the best lawyers to help with my brother's case."
"Alright, At least, I will try to keep Mr. Maliq from being sentenced to death" Leo said with confidence.
**
After discussing his plans with Leo, Evan goes to the hospital where Fahri practices. Evan told his findings to his brother. Instantly, the look on Fahri's face that had been sad, turned sparkling after hearing Evan's words.
As if finding an oasis in the desert, Fahri felt a tremendous relief. Even in my heart there is worry. However, he was sure, the kindness that Zian had done in the past would reap the rewards. Now, his job is only to help Evan and Leo execute his plan.
***
Meanwhile, in other places, Naya was really worried about Anita. For days Anita disappeared. In fact, the bodyguards who escorted him did not return either.
"Auntie, can I go find Anita? I'm so worried about him. Please let me go look for him. I'm fine!"
Aunt Carlota tries to calm Naya down, "Zian asks you not to go anywhere until you and Deniz are safe. Trust me, Anita must be fine. You don't get out of this villa at least until Zian lets you."
"But where's Anita, Auntie?"
"Calm down, don't worry. He must have had a reason not to return."
***
SERIATE.
