Farel's words seemed to be stuck in his throat. His fist was so strong it grabbed the piece of paper he had just read the contents of. He was eager to spill all the churning disappointment in his chest, but could not. If only the man before him was not an old man, perhaps a raw bogem would be thrown Farel on the man's cheek right now.
Farel is not. He was afraid that a single blow could make the man instantly lose his life, and especially Farel still respected his status as a parent.
"Why did you do this to me? Toying with my love for Cia!" Farel stood up, pounding the table with a burst of his emotions.
The surprised Pramono immediately raised his head. He looks sad and feels guilty. "Sorry, Farel. I do this only for the happiness of my grandchildren. I think you are a suitable man to be her husband Cia. But it turns out I was wrong. Her happiness is not with you, but with her husband. I'm sorry because now he hates me after knowing the truth."
Farel's eyes squinted sharply. The veins on his neck looked tensely holding in annoyance. Farel couldn't stand it, then decided to get out of there. Bringing a great disappointment that hurt his heart. Why would Pram say that now? When he almost got the whole Cia.
The fact that she managed to leave the child in Cia's womb, made her feel like she was the luckiest person in the world. The impossibility of his loving wife is no longer an excuse. Farel could be proud because he finally won.
However, all of that must run aground at the end of the road to the point of guarantee. Just one more step Farel to find happiness. Now it's all just wishful thinking.

"Bad! How dare Mr. Pramono humiliate our family!" Emotions that soar high are also felt by Sadam. He who has just heard the reality brought by his only son is certainly not accepted.
"Patience, Pa. This is good news according to my mom. In this way our son will not be labeled as a wrestler wife people again. She doesn't need to be responsible for Cia's son." Arisa who was sitting next to her husband chimed in. The three of them were sitting in a discussion room.
Sadam turned to his wife, then turned to his son again. "You're right, but still they should be taught a lesson. Stop all our cooperation with the Lubis family! Papa doesn't want any more business with the family. If necessary sue their families for fraud charges."
"That's not necessary, Pa. Engaging the police would only add to the burden of Cia's mind. He is now still hospitalized because he is upset with his grandfather's behavior. Enough to stop all our cooperation with them. I can't bear to see Cia suffer more." Farel immediately denied his papa's proposal telling him to sue the court. He did not want the woman he loved to be more depressed. Cia was not wrong, she was just a victim of her grandfather's selfishness.
"Currently, you're still defending that woman!" Sadam was upset with Farel's stupidity. It is very regretful why his son had to anchor his love to the wife of people.
Arisa feels sorry for her son's fate. The mother immediately moved, moving her seat to the side of her child. His hand rubbed Farel's back gently, as if transferring strength to make his son stronger to deal with this problem. "Patience, yes, dear! You have to realize that Cia is not worthy of your pursuit. From the beginning your love was wrong. However you must apologize to her husband Cia, because you have destroyed their household."
Farel was silent at the words of his mother. His two eyes blinked in confusion, either having to say what to Delfin. Farel did not care, even though there was a heart that hurt.

The cloudy morning added to Pram's mood. Today, she was determined to meet her granddaughter in the hospital. Rejection is certain he will accept, but Pram is already confident in his decision. It was time to stop his madness. Cia must know other facts, about who the father of the fetus is being conceived.
"Good morning, dear." Pram greeted Cia while commenting on the smile when he entered Cia's room.
"What's Grandpa here for?" ketus tanyanya.
Pram stepped closer to Cia's bed. In her hand was a brown envelope she showed Farel last night. His body trembled a little. Pram was sure that after Cia knew the secret she had brought, the woman must have been furious. Then Pram will explain it slowly.
"Grandfather misses you. How is your condition now? What about grandpa's great-granddad? Is she okay? Grandpa heard you didn't want to eat." Pram immediately asked a few questions.
Cia laughed gruntingly. Funny with Grandpa's question. His head turned and looked at his grandfather with a cynical look. "Does Grandpa care about this kid?" tanyanya underestimate.
"Of course, honey. She's grandpa's great-granddad. The heir to our family. Of course Grandpa cares about him. Grandpa cares about you too, Cia. Grandpa cares about you both." Pram replied with a witty. Clear crystals had already dammed up in his eye patch. Pram felt hurt looking at the hateful gaze that was highlighted from Cia's eyes.
"But I hate this kid, Cake. Because of him, I had to lose Delfin. The fact that our grandfather destroyed our household would not change anything. Just leaving a feeling of disappointment. Cia will still lose Delfin, Cake. It's all because of grandpa, because of this kid!"
She screamed hysterically. The suppressed emotions within his chest finally came out. He almost hit his stomach if his grandfather didn't hold his hand. Cia lost her mind, she wanted to eliminate the fetus she was carrying.
"What are you doing, Cia? He's not guilty. The wrong grandfather. The wrong grandfather ...." Pram held Cia's hand and lowered his head. Her tears could no longer be contained. The oath accompanies his confession at this time. Pram crying sniffles. Both of his weak legs were bent and kneeling. Align her body with Cia lying on the bed.
Cia would not comment. He was busy swallowing the bitterness of reality. Both drowned in tears. Long enough to pass without a conversation.
Feeling enough to spill regret, Pram grabbed the brown envelope that he had dropped when trying to prevent Cia from beating her stomach. Then stand up and hand it to Cia. "This, Honey. Read it! After this grandfather is sure you will not hate this child anymore" he said with confidence.
Cia looked at the grandfather's face. "What's an envelope? Is there something Grandpa is planning?" tanyanya was suspicious.
"No, Honey. Grandpa is really sorry about what Grandpa did all this time to you and Delfin. Think of the letter as a redeemer for grandfather's mistakes, even though you should be honest from the beginning. Grandpa apologizes." Again, Pram asked for forgiveness from his grandson.
The curious Cia opened the envelope and looked at the contents. Surprised, of course. Even his eyes were perfectly rounded. "So .. This child is Delfin's son?" cia asked with trembling lips. Pram nodded.
Beyond the Pram's estimate. Instead of feeling happy and grateful to Pram, Cia sat down slowly, then pulled out the infusion needle attached to her hand violently.
"Where are you going, Cia?" Pram panicked when he saw Cia about to get out of bed.
"I'd like to see Delfin. Delfin should know this," Cia said with a gasp of breath.
