CHAPTER 52

I can't believe that a guilty man still finds it hard to say sorry to the man he wronged. ~Khali Mateen~

****

The day starts in the afternoon. The peace in Brunei Palace began to be disturbed by the arrival of three cars that had just arrived. All the servants and bodyguards who were there, certainly helped welcome and open the door for the guests of his master. 

The presence of the impromptu guest was a Malaysian family. The arrival was so sudden, of course, made all the family did not prepare any preparations. But, still. The men who knew about what Khali had done were silent. 

They seemed to know nothing and welcomed their presence kindly.

"God willing. I did not expect to meet you, Mr. Salim," Abi Raden said kindly to the younger brother of his father Aqila.

"I also. Welcome," said Salim kindly.

Umi Mayra and Abi Malik as the host were also no less friendly in welcoming. They also asked the waiters to prepare snacks and drinks for their guests.

"Why so sudden?" said Umi Mayra after taking off her arms with Umi Raida. 

"We are here to meet King Khali" Umi Raida said with a forced smile.

"Khali is still accompanying his wife in the room. He'll be down in a minute." 

The three men nodded. The main suspect has gone missing somewhere. Then now, Ammar is the main weapon in order to reach the door of forgiveness from the family in front of him.

Elsewhere, more precisely in Khali's room. The two sleeping people hugged each other, forced to wake up to knock on the door from the outside. 

Forced to open his eyes wide. Aqila who woke up first finally stood up. Extending his feet to the source of the voice, slowly the door opened and displayed his personal servant. 

"What's up, Bi?" 

"Below there are guests looking for King Khali, the Queen," he said, bowing his head politely. 

"alright. Just a minute."

Aqila turned her body and closed the door back. He walked while smiling towards the husband who had opened his eyes and looked at him fixedly.

"Wake up, hm?" tanya Aqila sat herself beside Khali.

"Hm." Khali just cleared his throat. Then he clasped his wife's hand and dropped a kiss. 

"Below there are guests looking for you, By," Aqila said. "Let's get off!" 

"Guests?" Khali's forehead is wrinkled. The man thought who the guest was this afternoon. However, before long his mind instantly came to a realization as he recalled a dossier and letter he had ordered to his men.

"Yes, By. Let's clean up first, then get off!"

The sound of floor friction with shoes made the attention of some people turn away. There, a couple walking hand in hand with a smile towards the living room.

Their presence certainly makes Ammar's heart beat faster. Even he felt, the air in this room seemed to run out and made him out of breath.

"Assalamualaik." Greetings both with a friendly smile.

Friendly, Aqila shook hands with Umi Raida and greeted Ammar and Abi Raden by cupping both hands in front of the chest. Likewise with Khali, the man's face seemed cold and did not show a smile like a few seconds ago he displayed in front of the wife.

"What's the matter you came here for?" ask Khali to the point.

The man chose to sit next to his wife and hold her hand. His voice was firm and made anyone feel a gripping aura inside here. In fact, Aqila herself could see the unfriendly gaze of her husband.

Ammar. The man could feel an angry aura within Khali Mateen. However, he was also involved in this plan at first. Which signifies, that he should also be able to reach out to the apologies of Khali and Aqila.

"I'm here to apologize to you, Mr. Khali." 

Khali's lips were still tightly clenched. The man did not seem to be intimidated at all by what Ammar did.  It was enough all this time he was always silent, to make all these problems become big.

"Sorry?" khali said with a slanted smile. 

Ammar nodded.

"My face?" khali's question made Ammar answer again with a nod.

"Yes." Yeah." 

"What a bad and wrong thought you had, Mr. Ammar," Khali said, causing the man to raise his face. 

"What do you mean, you?" asked Ammar with a frown. 

"You and your family should apologize to my wife. Because after all, my wife is the one who gets scorn and blasphemy from your sister's slander."
