The Ugly Wife's

Court's refusal

Tonight is the first time Zidan and Lilian have received a dinner invitation with Marcel and Kinara to celebrate Lilian's ex-husband's birthday.

Zidan and Lilian looked at the faces of the two people before him with indifferent gazes. But it cannot be denied, from the gaze of Zidan also implies the presence of curiosity.

Zidan was curious about the beautiful face of Kinara that looked slightly swollen and decorated by bruises that almost disappeared. It looked as if it was the mark of being beaten by someone, yet I don't know who.

Zidan could only stare at his father's face with a questioning look, but the old man instead turned to avoid Zidan's gaze, and pretended to be busy with the menu book in his hands.

"Why did you open the menu? I guess, you've ordered all the food for tonight" asked Lilian who was aware of Marcel's strange behavior.

"I've ordered everything, but I also want to offer you, to add to the order if there's any more food you want on the menu"

"No need to bother. Zidan and I will only eat a little of the food you ordered, then leave. Isn't that Zidan?" lillian asked cynically, who was immediately approved by Zidan with a nod of the head.

"Why is that fast? Please stay a little longer for tonight, It will definitely be more fun" Kinara said softly.

"What's wrong with your face, Kinara? Why is it like that?"

Hearing Zidan's question, Kinara and Marcel instantly both became shocked. Marcel, who was sipping water, coughed repeatedly. Kinara could only fidget around uneasily, not knowing what to answer.

"Oh yeah, a few weeks ago I also accidentally saw you and dad coming to the hospital. Who was sick at the time?" zidan.

"You_you, did you see father and Kinara in the hospital? Ah, maybe you just got it wrong, dad and Kinara haven't been to the hospital in the last two months"

"Yes Zidan, what your father said was right. Maybe you just misjudged that time"

"No way, I'm sure it's dad and Kinara. I even went to see the doctor you met to make sure it was direct"

"Why did you go to the doctor you went to?! Don't you have another job?!" marcel asked furiously, and subconsciously hit the table.

"Hey, why are you so angry with Zidan? You should be grateful that Zidan behaved that way, because that's a sign that he still cares about you who is his father! Despite your past conduct, it is shameful and unforgivable!"

"Ma_sorry. I'm not angry, but just a little surprised"

"So right, if you went to the hospital that day? Who's sick, is that you who's sick Kinara? Why do you have to do everything X-ray?"

Kinara looked at Zidan's face with a haru look, as she felt that Zidan still cared a lot about what happened to her. The man even went to great lengths to find out what really happened.

It made Kinara unable to not love and miss the figure of Zidan even more. Wanting to feel, he ran into Zidan's arms and told her everything.

But suddenly, Kinara shrieked softly as if enduring the pain. Turns out from behind the table, Marcel stomped on the woman's fingertips hard and then threw a threatening look.

Zidan and Lilian, who were watching everything that happened between the two people, could only throw one another in astonishment. In any case, Lilian was a woman as well, she could not possibly just watch when another woman was hurt.

"Why Kinara, why are you yelling like you're holding back pain?"

"Ah, there's nothing mother. Kinara's stomach was just a little crampy" Kinara replied quickly.

"You sure? Not because someone is around you, trying to make you sick?"

"No mother, there's nothing like it. I'll be sitting next to Marcel, there's no way my own husband would act so rude to me"

"He's just your husband, not the mother who gave birth to you. Nowadays, even a birth mother can torture her own child, let alone one who has no blood relation to you"

"Geez, do you suspect I'm Lilian? You also know me very well, I may not be like that"

"Who knows, people can change too. Just look at your young wife's face, how can I not be suspicious of you?"

Marcel looked at Kinara's face, and cursed the young woman in his heart. He was upset that Kinara could not cover the marks with makeup or anything like that.

Kinara who was afraid of Marcel's gaze, could only look down while trying to cover her face with one hand.

"You think it was me? Oh, my God, you mistakenly thought Lillian. Kinara, tell me what really happened, baby"

"But_but, I'm ashamed dear"

"Are you happier to see me do that to you? You have a heart, baby"

"All right, I'll tell you the truth. Mother, Zidan, the marks on Kinara's face were not Marcel's, but Kinara's friend who was also a fellow model"

"Why did he do that to you?" ask Zidan quickly.

"Did you snatch her husband too, just like you did to me?"

"Bu_not like that, mother. Kinara's friend just misunderstood me, because she thought I liked her boyfriend, but the opposite was true. It was her boyfriend who liked Kinara unilaterally"

"Where is it possible that if it's just like that, you can get a former hit that bad. And at first glance, it's not a woman's or a girl's punch, but it's more a man's punch"

"My friend does have a very irritable nature, so before he knew what was going on, he was already playing punches. In addition, he had also followed martial arts, so his mark was like this mother"

"Oh, that's it" Lilian replied, returning to being nonchalant. But in his heart, he was still a little hesitant.

The four people then enjoyed dinner in silence. Marcel's birthday show, also runs from start to finish with an atmosphere that feels very strange.

*****

Zidan parked his car in the courthouse parking lot. The man then came out, and walked in search of the figure of Asyifa who was already waiting for him.

Well, today is the day that Ashifa will file for divorce against William. However, not an hour has passed since the woman asked for permission to leave, she has called Zidan to ask for help.

Not yet heard the details of what happened, Zidan instead asked where Ashifa was, and immediately rushed to the woman.

"Ashypha!"

"Sir Zidan, have you come? How fast, the feeling just a few minutes ago I called my father" said Asyifa seemed surprised.

"I happen to be near here, so I can get there quickly"

"When you don't have to bother coming to me like this, we can still talk on the phone sir"

"No hassle, this is for an important matter, so I have to meet you in person. How about we find a comfortable place to talk?"

"We went to the cafe, where I was waiting for my father" Asyifa said, pointing to the cafe not far from there.

"Come, let's go there"

Both of them walked towards the cafe. After Zidan ordered drinks and lunch, because it happened that it was time for lunch, then the two began talking about the issue of Asyifa.

"What's going on?"

"Come, sir, I don't understand either. But to be sure, the file I filed was rejected just like that"

"declined? Why is that so, what was the reason they rejected it?" ask Zidan in wonder.

"Squeaky. Not usually, there are files that are rejected once inserted. Not even a half hour"

"Is this all William's work, until my file is rejected like that sir?" asyifa looked hopeful.

"I say this, not because I want to hurt your heart or prevent you from wishing for Asyifa. But why would William do all that? It's not that you see it for yourself, that she prefers that woman over you?"

"That's true too, said Mr. Zidan. I'm sorry sir, for foolishly hoping for something that's obviously, impossible to happen"

"Don't talk like that, Ashifa" said Zidan, feeling guilty, seeing Ashifa's sad face.

"Forget it, I just said, sir. What I want to ask you now is, can Mr. Zidan help me so that this file I filed, can be accepted by the court?"

"Of course I'll help you, just give me your file. Let me file it in person, through my acquaintances who are in court"

"really sir? Thank you very much Mr. Zidan, thankfully I know an important person like my father"

"Basic, you could have praised him. But I noticed, you seemed to be at the very moment when I said I could help you get your files accepted. Are you sure you're parting ways with William?"

"I'm sure, sir. I don't want to be selfish, by forcing someone to stay next to me, when that person doesn't want to do it. I cannot congratulate him, who has found his long lost love. But by making her free as soon as possible, it means I've shown proof that I support her"

Hearing Asyifa's explanation, Zidan could only fall silent while looking at the woman's face with a look of admiration. It also made Zidan fall in love with Asyifa.

"Sir Zidan? Mr?" call Ashifa to Zidan who is still silent.

"Eh, yes Fa. What's up?"

"Fa? Mr. Zidan just called me by Fa, like Mira and Angel used to do?"

"Ayeah?" ask Zidan unconsciously.

"Yes, I just had a father like that"

"That's so. Well, from now on, if we're outside the company, we talk while calling each other's names"

"Eh, how is that? Not uncomfortable, sir? I'm Zidan's subordinate"

"Gosh, you have to follow Angel and Mira. The two of them were comfortable acting that way, why don't you? Is it because you like me, Dad?" goda Zidan's.

"No need to be weird, sir. All right, I'll take it easy with Mr. Zidan if we're outside the company!"

"Liet dong, Fa" said Zidan grinned.

"Oh yeah, why did you look at me like that? Is there something strange on my face?"

"Nothing strange, you even look so beautiful"

"Hmm, is that so? You must have been a reliable mombal, so it can be smart to tease women. Even the widowed, like me!" assyifa replied in a joking tone.

Zidan who was insinuated, was instead engrossed in laughter when he saw Asyifa's expression. The man even had to grin at his stomach, because it was so funny.

"I just saw you laughing like this for the first time. You have to laugh a lot, Zidan"

"A_what? What, you just called my name?"

"Yes"

"Can you try calling me again?"

"Zidan" repeated Asyifa, while looking at Zidan's face which began to turn red.

"One more time"

"Zidan"

And right then and there, Zidan's face became even more flushed like a boiled crab. He could only hide his face behind the table.

Asyifa who saw it, immediately realized the truth of the words of Angel and Mira who said, if the boss really likes him. However, Ashifa chose to pretend not to be aware of it.

Because for now, he does not want to be involved in romance with anyone. Let it be for a while, he just focused on taking care of the divorce and then enjoying his free time alone.

"Geez, look who this is that we're meeting here Aliya! Turns out, it wasn't just your boyfriend William who cheated on you, it was his wife!" said Zenith who suddenly appeared together with Aliya, out of nowhere.

"Hi Zenith, long time no see you. Aren't you obsessed with William, so you can get that close to William's girlfriend?" reply Asyifa, who did not want to be silent just insinuated like that.

"So you know, I haven't liked William in a long time. Now I'm helping William and Aliya to get their marriage ready as soon as you and William get divorced. Isn't that Aliya?"

"I_yes"

"Good then. But maybe what you want will take a little longer, because just now the people from the court refused to accept the file taught by Asyifa" Zidan explained, unexpectedly interrupted the conversation.

"Who are you?!" zenith asked with a hostile expression.

"Include me, my name is Zidan, and I'm the boss of the company where Asyifa works"

"Then, what do you mean earlier that the file filed by Asyifa was rejected by the court?"

"Well, it means that"

"Why can? Speak clearly!" pinta Zenith is impatient.

"Where do I know, just ask the court directly! But if, according to my guess, it's possible that William's side might try to block the divorce between Asyifa and William"

"It's impossible, William's side did it. That must be you, right, Asyifa? Why do you always try to take William by all your cunning means?"

Zenith who was visibly emotional and did not receive the news Zidan said, violently pulled Ashifa's hair as hard as she could. Making Asyifa can only groan to endure pain.

"Zenith, stop. Don't make a fuss in public, let's take off Asyifa's hair" Aliya's pinta who tries to keep Zenith away from Asyifa, aided by Zidan.

"What the fuck are you, suddenly such a harsh amendment to Asyifa? Do you want me to report it to the police?" enraged Zidan when Zenith had been successfully separated from Asyifa.

"Don't. I beg you not to report Zenith to the police, I apologize for what she did just now to Asyifa"

"Don't talk to me, you two are the same! Equally insane, one seizes people's husbands, and the other attacks people for no reason! Let's get out of here, Ashifa"

Zidan, who did not want Ashifa to face the two women longer, grabbed Ashifa's hand and immediately walked away from there.

However, the voices of Zenith's shouts and swearing could still be heard in Ashifa's eardrums. Makes the woman can only stroke her chest, to be patient.

"Revelation you Asyifa! Anyway, you should get divorced as soon as possible from William! That William doesn't like you anymore, so don't try to hold himself by your side, you cheap lady!" zenith shouted with emotion.

Seriate...
