Young Widow Pursued Om Bule

Return to Jealousy

Riani is forced to tell the story of her past with Daniel. The true story he had forgotten but had to be remembered again.

Clark invites Riani to sit in a cafe while enjoying coffee.

"Daniel and Goddess are unhappy. Maybe because Daniel didn't love the Goddess. After marriage they did live in England because Daniel continued his studies here and Dewi as well. Daniel already has a good job and business. Dewi has become one of the doctors in one of the private hospitals that are here. They were in a hurry because of Daniel's sick father. But thank God, after their marriage, a few months later, Daniel's father was cured. Although until now, they have not been given children."

Riani was surprised to hear Clark's story. They don't have children? Wasn't that punishment for Daniel who had left Riani while pregnant?

Clark smiled at the surprised Riani. "Is that a punishment for leaving you?" clark said as if he could read Riani's heart.

"Eitherway. I don't want to judge people. Because it's God's right."

"And your son? Ah, I didn't think you had a child. You're this young."

Riani smiled shockingly. "That is the reality of life. I am proud to have my daughter. Called Arma. He's a smart kid, never bothering a good-natured parent."

"Surely he's as kind as you are."

"Maybe." Riani smiled.

"Can I see the picture?"

Riani took her phone and showed me a photo of Arma. Clark looked at the photo carefully. "She's beautiful. But I have to honestly admit that his face looks a bit like Daniel. Only his eyes look like yours. Somehow Daniel responded when he saw this kid."

"Don't tell him about Arma. I told you that Arma died. I don't want Daniel to disturb Arma's peace, especially now that he doesn't have any children."

Clark nodded. "Your secret is safe with me. Oh yeah, have your coffee cold first."

Riani sipped her coffee slowly. "Clark, didn't you go to your father's legacy reading?"

Clark shook his head but a moment later he was shocked. "Do you know me and Jack's brothers?"

"Yes. Felix's lawyer said it."

"So you know that my mom's an actor?"

"Don't be like that, Clark. As bad as your mother's past is, she's still your mother."

"I love my mom. I never blamed him for cheating on me with Mr. Raymond myself. I'm the only one who doesn't want to use Almond's last name. I'm proud to use my mother's last name."

"Did master Ray notice you?"

"Materially yes. But he rarely visited me. It's just that, over the past year, we've been seeing each other a lot because he's been having problems with his company and asking me for legal help. We also visited Cassie several times at her school. When I was a child, my father sent his assistant, his lawyer, and his trusted people who always came to bring me my needs even though financially I never really lacked because my mother was a hard worker, then get a rich man's husband too. My dad was with me, very good with me."

Riani can see that there is actually a wound that Clark tried to hide behind the indifference he showed.

"Clark, I'm going home."

"I'll take you."

"I don't want to bother you."

"You paid me enough for dinner."

The two laughed together. Then Clark helped bring Riani's groceries.

**********

Jack and Cassie return home. Both of them looked tired after a long journey.

"Has mommy not home yet?" cassie asked as they entered and the house looked deserted.

"So he sent a message going to an Asian store." Jack looked at his watch. "But that was 4 hours ago. Did he have trouble getting a taxi because of the snow that fell a bit heavy?" Jack immediately retrieves his phone and contacts Riani. But Riani's phone is inactive.

Just as he was about to get out to catch up with his wife, he saw Clark's car enter his yard. There is jealousy to see Riani coming delivered by Clark especially while bringing her groceries.

"Darling, are you back?" Riani immediately ran over and hugged her husband as she opened the door and saw Jack already standing waiting for her.

Jack hugged his wife while staring at Clark who was still standing holding his groceries.

"Uncle Clark!"

Jack lets go of his embrace when he sees Cassie who knows Clark even calling him uncle.

"Hallo my niece!" Clark took off the groceries in his hand and immediately hugged Cassie.

" Uncle will accompany your mommy to cook Indonesian food. You want to help him?" ask Clark. He did not care about Jack's eyes wanting him to leave.

"Indonesian Food? I want to help too. Let's go to the kitchen." Cassie takes Clark to the kitchen and the man just looks at Jack with a wink in his eye.

"Darling.....!" Jack restrains Riani's hand as she is about to go to the kitchen. "How can he take you?"

"We accidentally met there."

"Clark's office is in that shopping mall." Jack could not hide his jealousy. "I'm afraid that she'd deliberately want to get close to you, baby."

Riani glared at her husband. "Darling, he's your brother. Besides I'm not that low as cheating on another man." Riani's voice sounded dislike and Jack immediately hugged his wife.

"I'm sorry."

"Never doubt me, Jack. I've felt the pain of being betrayed so I can't do that." Then Riani broke free from Jack's embrace and immediately went into the kitchen. His heart was upset that Jack doubted him.

Cassie is happy to be cooking together. Jack decided to rest in the room because he was very tired and sleepy because he could barely close his eyes all night. Moreover, he had just driven a car for 5 hours because of the slippery road due to snow.

While Riani and Clark speak Indonesian, Cassie occasionally speaks. Riani was shocked because Cassie learned Indonesian from the internet.

Dinner is ready. Riani wakes Jack up in the room. Her husband woke up and joined her.

"Don't you ever tell Cecilia about Cassie's whereabouts" Jack said when he had a chance to chat with Clark.

"You're very good at hiding it. Wh why? They also deserve to know about Cassie."

"Shut up, Clark! You have no right to interfere with my decision about Cassie. You've even met him without asking me for permission."

"Our father introduced her to me, Jack. And I really love Cassie because she was supposed to be my son."

"Shut up....!"

Cassie approached them. "Uncle, will we be together?"

"Of course, baby."

Jack glared at Clark but the man casually ruffled Cassie's hair.

"What do you want a present for, Cassie?" ask Clark.

"I don't want any gifts. I just want uncle here."

Jack can only hold the crap in his heart, he can't be mad at Clark because Cassie loves him.

***********

After their hot romance tonight, Riani chooses to ask Jack.

"Darling, have you ever deleted a message from my phone?" asked Riani while sitting leaning on the head of the bed. She was wearing her sleep dress again.

Jack, who was still lying down, slowly got up and sat down beside his wife.

"Who told you that I deleted the message from your phone?"

Riani looked at her husband. "I met Daniel."

"How does he know your cell phone number on the thing you just met?"

"Because...." Riani took a breath and exhaled slowly."Because it wasn't our first meeting. I met him 3 days ago by accident in a cake shop."

"Damn!" Jack slapped the bed with his right hand. His face looked red withstanding anger. He looked at Riani sharply. "Why didn't you tell me that meeting? Then why did you give her a phone number?"jack asked in a rather high tone of voice.

"I don't think that's important to say because Daniel is in the past for me. And I didn't give her a phone number. Mr. John."

Jack got out of bed and put his shirt back on. He came out of the room slamming the door. Riani surprised. Jack was never this rude to her.
