Trapped Will and Agreement

Arrests

After calming down the reporters and promising to give the answer later after the meeting, Faisal told Richard and Dahlia to head upstairs.

The meeting began. How surprised Richard got a report from Alex that there are 120 houses that have not been completed construction. Olivia also provided information that from the financial statements, the company's expenses are indeed swelling, with the reason for tender purposes. Therefore, there are parties who receive funds from outside under the pretext of housing development. Even more surprising was Roni Permana.

" Damn it!!! Where is that guy?" asked Rich with a sigh.

" A minute, Richard, we can't be rash to make a decision. Better now we find a way to calm the media."

Faisal added. " Mrs Dahlia is right, we have to find the right reason because we promised to do an interview today."

" But what do we want to say? Are we going to tell you the truth if we take bribes from other companies? Of course the company will lose credibility."

" For that matter, we'd better keep it a secret first. Because if journalists judge that we received the funds, it will definitely cause side effects on other projects. But, about Mr. Hendra......

He threatened to withdraw all shares in the company."

Richard nodded. " About Hendra, let me take care. Now the most important thing is customer trust."

" What exactly does Hendra want, Mr. Richard?" ask Mr. Ridwan.

Richard hesitated to answer.

" Ehh, just a business thing. He wants me to invest in his new branch."

Everyone nodded, except for Dahlia. He was not so sure of Richard's answer.

Finally, after it was decided that Richard had to give clarification to the media, Dahlia and Olivia helped prepare all the information that the reporters might question.

Richard looked groggy as he walked out of his room. Dahlia, who saw Rich's face, calmed him down.

" rich! You need to calm down. You can definitely help the company through the problem" said Dahlia while holding Richard's shoulder and making Rich smile and a little calm because he felt cheered by Dahlia.

The interview begins. But in the middle, Richard was faced with a time that managed to break in and would demo. They are homeowners who do not receive the news because they feel they have paid off the payment. Dahlia and the others were worried because they saw Richard crumpling the paper in front of him and walking towards them.

For a moment Rich's eyes reddened trying to dampen emotions while clenching his hands. But unexpected things happen and make the atmosphere become quiet. Rich clenched his hands together while bowing his head like a begging man. All of those events did not escape from camera shots from journalists, especially when Rich started the conversation.

" I am Richard Son Wiratama. I sincerely apologize for this incident. Home is a place where you feel warmth and happiness. That's why my grandfather decided to set up this company. Maybe if he knew about this, he would be sad. I am also sad. But I as his grandson promise you that I will be responsible for this misunderstanding. The house that you have entrusted to us, we will build the best we can, because your house is our home too."

One of the protesters approached and held Rich's hand.

" I entrust my home to you, son Richard," said one of the fathers, followed by another.

Richard was glad to get a good response. All the witnesses smiled and applauded at Richard's confession, which included answering all the reporters' questions. But there are two pairs of eyes that do not like this.

Arriving at the room, Richard tells Olivia to call Roni. Damn when Olivia walked into her room, she had already run away first. But after coming out of the basement, he was stopped by several police cars that were ready to arrest him. Richard and the others come out to see Roni's arrest.

" How did the police get here?" asked Olivia in surprise.

Alex stepped. " I called the police."

Rich and Faisal nodded, but not with Dahlia and Olivia. They look at each other.

Richard and Dahlia arrive at the mansion later that night. Aunt Mun and the others greeted him happily, let alone Richard's attitude that turned warm to all the arts.

" Look Richard! Aunt's favorite is home. Aunty was very upset," said Bi Mun who could not help but hold back her tears while hugging Richard.

" Richard also misses aunt. Aunt's healthy, right?"

Aunt Mun took off her embrace. " Aunties are healthy and healthy so they can keep your grandfather's legacy here well."

After the meeting was over and dinner, Richard and Dahlia rushed to his room as the day was very tiring. As she was heading to her room, Sarah's mother called Richard to speak.

" Rich, how are you?" tanyanya basa.

" Rich, you can win Roni. He hasn't been proven guilty."

Richard looked at his mother seriously.

" Not proven yet mama said? He almost destroyed the grandfather company and Rich had to be caged?"

" You've changed Rich. It must be because of the village woman, right?"

" yes. And mom should thank him. Because of Dahlia, Rich's eyes and heart were wide open so that Rich did not become crazy property and power."

Not wanting to argue for long, Richard immediately left his mother who was still upset.

Richard could not sleep. He awakens Dahlia, whose room faces him.

Tok tok tok tok

" What's up?" ask Dahlia.

" I can't sleep" replied Rich, who was still squinting his eyes.

Dahlia laughs. " why? This is your own house."

" I'm hungry. Make me something. Kiky and Sita's shift is closed."

Dahlia shook her head in astonishment. After a few minutes, a serving of fried rice is served.

Rich looked at Dahlia while eating a mouthful. " Thank you Li. "

" No problem. It's just fried rice," Lia replied casually.

" No. Thanks for making me realize."

Dahlia chuckles. " Are you unconscious?"

" yes. I didn't realize that you were such a special person" Rich said seriously.

Dahlia smiled but immediately shifted her gaze because she did not want to linger. " Oya, I'm going to Bandung the day after. Because flower delivery is delayed 2 days."

" really? Then tomorrow you'll be working again?" pinta Rich with enthusiasm.

Dahlia.

Very early in the morning Alex came to Richard's newly arrived room. Dahlia is meeting Olivia.

" Rich, I'm still wondering what Hendra wants from you?" ask Alex to the point.

" Loe was very curious about Lex,"

" Yes, I care about you too. I also love the most dekett sodara loe. Wrong if I care about you?"

Rich felt a little guilty. " Yes yes. Sorry I'm just a little frustrated by Hendra's request. When he told me to marry Vina. Crazy is it! "

Alex pursed his lips a little.

Yep. Loe who will go crazy Rich after knowing what I will do. inner Alex.
