"Karl," the great-grandson of a woman sitting in a wheelchair on the balcony of her room.
"Arlene, it's late, why are you still here! Come inside!" Karl immediately pushed the wheelchair into the room and closed the door and the balcony curtain.
"Karl, why can't Berryl be as gentle as you are to me? Did I not have any chance at all to stand by his side?" arlene said as she sobbed. Karl crouched down in front of Arlene and clasped his hands.
"Please don't cry, baby! Didn't I promise to help you get close to Berryl."
"You have promised many times, Karl, but all is never proven. You lied to me, Karl. I know, you never really wanted to help me." Arlene said, rubbing her tears.
"Baby, I really want to help you. You know, it's not easy for me to see the people I love expecting other people. But for the sake of your happiness, I tried my hardest to suppress my feelings" Karl said, trying to convince Arlene. But Arlene was throwing her face away.
"Hows it? How-to? Didn't you say he was married? Doesn't mean I don't have any chance." Arlene tergugu. Karl's heart ached so much to see Arlene's fragility. Karl loved Arlene very much, but Arlene had always loved Berryl.
Karl recollects the moment Arlene attempted suicide by jumping off the balcony of her room because of her love for Berryl. As a result of the incident, Arlene fell into a coma for months. Karl promised, as long as Arlene is healed, he will help Arlene get Berryl no matter how. And it turns out that his prayer was answered. Arlene regained consciousness, but only to make her return almost in despair, her legs were paralyzed. From then on, Karl never left Arlene and as promised, he would help Arlene get Berryl no matter how. No matter if Berryl is his only cousin, for him the promise must still be kept.
"Whatever I'm gonna do, baby. Your demi I will do everything," he concluded full of sincerity.
Arlene smiled sweetly as she stared fixedly at Karl's face. Karl rubbed Arlene's wet cheek with his thumb.
"I keep your promise, Karl."

You need my help?"
Megan was confused while reading a message that had just entered her phone. He did not know who the sender of the message was. However, when the message came in for the second time he just understood, if the sender is the man who yesterday came to him.
I'm the one who gave you the address yesterday.
*can?
Sure do.
What am I supposed to do?
Raise my call, I'll explain*.
Megan smiled as she grinned after closing the call. He hoped that the plans of men he did not know who it was could work. All he wanted to do right now was take revenge.

Handoko let out a long sigh, then she massaged her temples to relieve dizziness. He also felt confused. He was angry and upset that the plantation he had worked so hard for so many years had to fall into Hanindita's hands. Although Hanindita is the rightful heir to the plantation and tea factory, she should have owned the rights to the plantation and the tea factory.
Once he tried to enter and influence the people who worked in the factory and tea plantation, but apparently they were not willing to side with him. Berryl successfully influenced them all through his confidants. Sometimes he waited when Berryl and Hanindita came back to the village even though just to monitor the plantation, but it was not at all. It seems they did deliberately seize the plantation and the tea factory to get rid of it.
His packaged tea processing factory was not taken over because they knew that the factory was built with hard work. But everything was useless because they did not want to sell tea from the plantation to him. No raw materials, how can he produce his packaging tea. He had tried to buy tea from other plantations, but the results were different, especially the quality of taste. As a result, the factory suffered losses and threatened to go out of business.
"Mas, just be quiet! So how are we supposed to go? Your factory is also in danger of bankruptcy. You have to think dong." Lidya's nagging. "Well, why is everything so fucked up! Morgan was arrested by police. Megan's busy in town chasing after the stupid Berryl to be willing to be cleaning service. Stupid, very stupid. It's all because of that damn girl. Megan should be the wife of the rich, not her. You fucking child carrier! Why didn't he just die like his mother? Basic ga .... " Lid
"Can you shut up? I got dizzy hearing you babble from earlier. If it can't help, at least don't make my head dizzy!" handoko's snapping made Lidya speechless with annoyed glaring eyes.

Early in the morning VH Corporations already looked boisterous by the whispers of its employees. How not, for the first time their boss brought a girl to the company where they made a living. During this time, rumors that their boss was an impotent man was heard throughout the company. Not only in VH Corporations, but also in other companies the gossip was moving wildly and reinforced with no one girl who managed to get close to Berryl.
But what is seen today is amazing. Their boss, whom they had never seen holding a woman, was walking leisurely towards a special elevator while embracing a beautiful girl. Even Berryl looks so friendly with the occasional kiss steal on Hanindita's cheek. Yes, for the first time, Berryl took Hanindita to the office. He had a secret plan for his wife.
After seeing a faint double line in the testpack yesterday, Berryl plans to have Hanindita checked with a doctor. Of course this was without Hanindita's knowledge. He hoped that what he had in mind would prove to be true. Berryl was looking forward to the happy news. She was sure Hanindita would be so happy if her guess was true.
"Hubby, I'm ashamed" Hanindita's great-grandson hid her face behind Berryl's upper arm. Berryl then chuckled and peeked at the top of his head to make his employees who saw it round their eyes.
"Don't be shy, sweetie! Lift your chin! Remember, right now you're Van Houten's young mistress so you need to be confident. Mommy can be angry when you see you like this," Berryl said, making Hanindita pursed her lips.
"And I'm not used to it yet, hubby," Hanindita argued. He's not used to all that. Moreover, this was the first time he set foot at Berryl's workplace of course he was a little nervous in the face of this many people. If they didn't know them, he didn't matter at all, but they knew Berryl, so it's only natural that he wasn't used to it and felt nervous and awkward.
"Okay, then from now on you have to get used to it" he concluded and Berryl kissed Hanindita's lips at a glance making his wife's face red because of it.
"Oh my God, who the hell is that girl! How could he be kissed Mr. Berryl?"
"Great yeah! Is that her lover? But isn't our boss ... "
"Seeing from the way, it's like his real lover!"
The stalls continued even until lunchtime arrived. Megan who also saw how romantic Berryl treated Hanindita also clenched her hands. How could a girl like Hanindita get Berryl's heart that easily without any effort.
'Fucking basics! I must immediately execute the man's plan mumpung no chance Megan murmured while clenching her hands.
