The Wife of the King's Pay

Chapter 92 The Truth

Almost overnight Cleantha found it hard to close her eyes. Many things weigh on his mind, especially his new relationship with Alvian and his past with the King. Anxiety like this either until when to be borne by itself.

After waking up, Cleantha hurriedly took a bath and then walked out of her room.

"Sir, sorry, I woke up late. It's already half seven in the morning, I'll make breakfast" Cleantha said, seeing Alvian already in the kitchen.

Even he had dressed neatly in a grey work suit.

"You don't have to worry. Mom will be here soon. I asked him to come here early so he could help prepare breakfast" Alvian said, brewing his coffee.

Smelling the pungent smell of coffee, made Cleantha feel nauseous. He ran towards the sink and vomited some of his food last night.

"Clea, are you okay?" ask Alvian to panic.

With his right hand, Alvian massaged Cleantha's nape to reduce her nausea.

"I'm used to this, sir. It will improve later," Cleantha sighed.

"See, I'll get you some warm water."

"Sir, but there's a bell. Maybe Bu Nur has come" said Cleantha heard the bell clink several times.

"Yes, wait here."

Seeing the panic on Alvian's face, Cleantha felt guilty. She shouldn't have troubled Alvian with her pregnancy symptoms. He was not the father of the baby he was carrying.

"Mr Alvian, are you here? I guess there is only Non Cleantha," asked Bu Nur in surprise.

"Yes, ma'am, I'm staying here" replied Alvian briefly.

Alvian rushed to fetch some water for Cleantha who was still vomiting for the second time.

"Clea, drink first" said Alvian softly.

Seeing the scene before her eyes, Bu Nur felt suspicious of the young couple. Moreover, Alvian seemed to be very worried about Cleantha.

"Non vomit huh?" ask Bu Nur to find out.

"Yes, Bi, it's like this in the morning."

"What do you want to make for breakfast?"

"I want to eat something sweet, ma'am. Yesterday I bought hazelnut jam in the supermarket. Please make me a jam-coated toast" Cleantha said.

Bi Nur scrunched his forehead. Seeing the signs Cleantha was experiencing, it was obvious that the girl was two-bodied.

"*I'm sure Miss Cleantha is pregnant young and Mr. Alvian must be the father of the baby. Then why don't they just*h?"

mummified Bu Nur shook his head.

...****************...

Before leaving for work, Alvian asked Cleantha again about her health condition.

"Clea, if you feel unwell, don't go to work today. Just rest in the apartment. I'll be back by noon, I can be with you" Alvian said, helping Cleantha sit down.

"I'm fine, sir. I'm still working hard."

"You can't keep this up. Later when your stomach is enlarged, you will be troubled to do work in the office."

"But I can't stay home. I have to be independent to...."

"I know what you mean. Had I told you I would have financed your life and your baby, you would have rejected it."

"What if I offer you another job. Are you willing to accept it?" asked Alvian suddenly.

"What job, sir?"

"Being assistant director of finance" Alvian told Cleantha.

"Assistant Father? But you already have an assistant in the office" Cleantha said.

A faint smile fell on Alvian's lips.

"Do you mind if I want to add one more assistant? My job is pretty much. I'd be very helpful if I had one assistant at home."

"I'll give you a higher salary than your current salary. And also a special bonus, which is that I will be your mentor. Teach you directly until you can master my work. Hows it? You interested?" tanya Alvian opened her offer.

"Hmmm, I don't know yet, sir," Cleantha replied hesitantly.

"I didn't give this opportunity to anyone else. Especially to you. My offer is only valid until later tonight. So quickly give me the answer."

"Yes, sir, I'll think about it. But I'm not sure I can help you with your work. I have no experience" said Cleantha, feeling inferior.

"You can do it because I am a teacher who is patient in educating his students. Who knows, one day, you could replace me as finance director at Adhiyaksa Group."

"I. that's impossible. Where may I be the director," argued Cleantha.

"I was just kidding. Don't take it seriously. Of course the only one who can replace me is my wife" Alvian said as he finished his coffee.

Hearing Alvian's words somehow Cleantha felt both happy and restless. Suddenly there was an unpleasant feeling in his heart.

"Let's go now, Clea," said Alvian holding Cleantha's hand.

...****************...

Mrs. Marina walked restlessly inside her room. He's waiting for a report from Mr. Leonard about Cleantha. But until six in the afternoon, the man had not called him.

"Drrrt, drrr.tt...."

Mrs. Marina hurriedly grabbed her vibrating phone from the top of the nightstand.

"Hello, Mr. Leon, you finally contacted me as well. How is your investigation today? Is that woman with my son?" ask Ny. Marina was impatient.

"Yes, Madam. In the morning I saw Miss Cleantha departing the car with Mr. Alvian for the Adhiyaksa Group office. On the way home from work, Mr. Alvian also picked her up."

"Where did Alvian take Cleantha? Did Mr Leon record the woman's home address?" ask Ny. The marina.

"Already, Madam, but...."

"But why, sir?"

Mr. Leonard's voice sounded hesitant.

"Miss Cleantha didn't come home, but she went with Mr. Alvian to San Lorenzo's apartment."

Mrs. Marina almost dropped her phone on the floor. His lips paled upon hearing the embarrassing fact reported by Mr. Leonard.

He did not expect that Alvian had been living in a house with Cleantha. They live together without marriage. This action has crossed moral boundaries and tarnished the good name of the Adhiyaksa family.

"Thank you Mr. Leonard for the report. I'll transfer the rest of the payment to you immediately" said Mrs. Marina hung up.

"I can't let this go. Tomorrow I'm gonna go see Cleantha and force her to leave Alvian,"

batin Ny's. Marina held back her anger.

...****************...

The king got out of his car with a tense face. Seeing Fendi's cafe for him was like looking at the gates of hell. His entire hand was itching, wanting to quickly beat up the jerk who destroyed his household.

Not once did Fendi damage his household, but twice. First he cheated on Zevira and secondly he made Cleantha owned by Alvian. His crimes are not worth forgiving.

With wide steps, Raja opened the door of the retro cafe. As he stepped inside, the King grew furious. The design and furniture in the cafe reminded him of Zevira.

It is still recorded clearly in his memory how Zevira was very excited to design a cafe owned by Fendi. At that time Zevira said she wanted to help Fendi, and she foolishly believed it. It turns out that was the beginning of the betrayal of love that Zevira committed.

"King," said Fendi walking towards the King.

His expression looked both anxious and fearful.

"What purpose did you call me here for?" asked the King to try to control himself.

"We'd better get inside. We better talk four eyes in my office," said Fendi invites the King through the cafe room that is crowded by visitors.

"Sit down, King" said Fendi, inviting his cousin to sit down.

"Not to be stale anymore. Just tell me what you want before I teach you a lesson" King threatened to clutch at Fendi's shirt collar.

"Please calm down, King. I'm asking you not to come looking for anything. I want to right my wrongs to you and Alvian."

"Which mistake? Your mistakes are countless and there is no way out to fix them," the fierce King snapped.

"I know, King. Apologizing is useless. Your marriage is ruined because of my actions. I was blinded by lust and blind love for Vira. But I've realized my mistake. Zevira was just playing me. He doesn't really love me or love you. All Vira cares about is the treasures and comforts of life."

Fendi bowed down because she was ashamed of her actions.

"My king will admit something very important about that night of entrapment."

"Acknowledging what? Say it clearly!!!" snapped the King shook Fendi's shoulder.

"Vira did tell me to put a stimulant into Alvian's drink. But.actually I didn't do that. I can't have the heart to destroy Alvian because since I was a teenager I've been friends with him. I.just put sleeping pills in his drink. So Alvian and Cleantha were both sound asleep in that hotel room. They are unlikely to have intercourse" Fendi said stammeringly.

The King's blood flow seemed to stop that very second. Fendi's explanation was just like the sunlight capable of melting a chunk of ice in his heart.

"Aren't you lying to me?"

"No, King, I swear I told you the truth. At that time I lied for fear that Vira would scold me. But this is the real truth. Alvian and Cleantha are innocent. I took off their clothes and photographed them sleeping, so you thought they had slept together" Fendi explained plainly.

The king released Fendi from his grip. He stepped away, leaving Fendi still in his place. The King's goal is only one. He soon finds Alvian and Cleantha, and apologizes to his sister and wife. And most importantly he would ask Cleantha to return to his arms.
