VENGEFUL SHACKLES

Deceiving a cunning criminal

"Stop! You may insult me, but not my son, he has absolutely no fault in you, he accepted the matchup because of my coercion, and about the business, he said, my son wasn't involved in the least!" frans said with a loud voice although it was a bit vibrating.

"White!" call Joshep who has also now arrived at the police station and is in the same room with Frans da Mark, his future father-in-law who did not become.

"J-Josh,, k-you, what are you here for? Have you come to laugh at me?" Frans, who was shocked by his son's presence there, immediately covered him with a cynical remark that he deliberately gave to his only son.

"I have come to see your situation and to accompany you, not to laugh or any other purpose, just to make sure that you are well." joshep replied was not provoked by his father's cynical remarks.

Joshep knew that at this time his father must have his heart dropped with this unexpected incident, without the need to fight his cynical words, Joshep was sure that Frans had been very hit, he said, especially if his father knew that his mother was now also being treated in the hospital because of the news of his arrest.

"I don't need to be accompanied or worried about you, but if you really want to show your filial piety to your parents, you should go home and accompany your mother, it looks like he needs more help, he must be very shocked to learn this news," said Frans, who did not know his wife was lying unconscious in hospital.

"My wife is already going there to accompany my mother" replied Joshep.

"A-what do you mean Paula?" surprised Frans again.

"Oh come on, I only have one wife, of course Paula, we've agreed to share the duties, I accompany you, and Paula accompanies mami." Joshep half-joking slightly melted the atmosphere that felt increasingly tense.

"Good, lucky my daughter didn't get married to you, if not-look how much my daughter would have been so humiliated to have in-laws who turned out to be criminals, you know, and an unemployed husband also has illegitimate children like you." said Mark who was still there and listened to the conversation between Frans and Joshep.

"Sorry sir, my son is not an illegitimate child, he was born from the results of my previous marriage, and as long as you know, now I also feel very lucky not to be married to your daughter, because my wife who is now very understanding and loves me both in a difficult and happy situation, she never complained about what was happening with me and my family, we are very happy, but I also pray that Bella gets a companion who can make her happy" Joshep said, unemotionally, replying to Mark's cynical words, making the middle-aged man feel upset but also did not want to continue his conversation with Joshep and Frans.

Now with the success of imprisoning Frans, Mark's heart is quite happy and satisfied because at least he can restore the shame Frans had given to his family when the cancellation of the marriage some time ago, he said, Mark felt that this was fair and equitable. Mark left the room immediately.

"Master Mark, wait, wait! I want to talk to you." Alex calls and stops Mark's sudden steps turning his body back to look at Alex.

"What else do you want to talk to me about?" mark asked with his flat and cold face.

"Why shouldn't we talk somewhere else?" ask Alex.

Alex then moved away from Frans and the others headed to the corner of the room to talk to Mark.

"Regarding the money you promised me, said my wife, the money has not been in the account, and the lawyer you promised to release me from here, why has not come since morning? Look, I'm even in handcuffs like a suspect like Frans!" Alex pointed to Frans who was being interrogated by the police with his chin raised.

"Money? What money?" mark asked as he frowned.

"Sir, don't mess around, of course it's the money you promised me if I wanted to dismantle doctor Frans's drug factory and you promised me you'd send a great lawyer to exonerate me from all charges." Alex starts to fall asleep because it looks like Mark forgot a promise he made.

Alex promised Mark will get a sum of money that will be transferred directly to his wife's account and also guaranteed not to be dragged in this case, not to mention Alex was also promised to get the position of Permata hospital chief director as he wanted so far after all the problems of frans arrest were completed.

"You've made a lot of money from your illicit business that tones my hospital, then you also want to be released from all your evil demands? Are you dreaming? Who do you think you are?" point Mark to the face of Alex who just touched his face immediately changed pias.

"A-you tricked me? I've helped you avenge Doctor Frans, but now you're putting me in jail, too? You lured me with a false promise?" alex growled suddenly his head felt dizzy, and his body felt cold hot when he realized that Mark was only using it.

"Hahaha, what a pleasure it would be to deceive a cunning and greedy criminal like you, if you could betray Frans, who helped you rise your post and also rewarded you with much in return for your business, then one day I'm sure you'll do the same to me, I'm just in case that never happens to me!" mark said with a grin.

"Fuck you Mark! I'm gonna kill you! You tricked me, you son of a bitch!" maki Alex who was only responded by Mark's back because the man immediately turned around and left Alex with all his disappointment and disappointment.

While in the hospital,

Paula was standing in front of the closed ICU door where Bertha was being cared for inside, no one else was waiting for her mother-in-law but her there.

Ten minutes later, the door of the room opened, a doctor came out with a grim face.

"What's the patient's condition, doctor?" asked Paula who immediately rushed over to the doctor who had just left the room.

But instead of answering immediately, the doctor took a deep breath like a weight to convey the answer Paula asked him.
