Young Widow Pursued Om Bule

Cassie's Surprising Decision

Cecilia's miscarriage and the revelation of Cassie Almond's identity became a byword in all infotainment and mass media.

Jack Almond is said to be a ruthless man who deliberately hid the existence of Cassie from the Smith family.

Riani's trial that prompted Cecilia was also in the title. At Jack's request, the trial was held behind closed doors.

Although Cecilia insisted that Riani encouraged her but the testimony of one of the servants, as well as the testimony of Cecilia, Riani was finally released from all the allegations.

Cecilia rebelled when she heard the judge's decision. He continued to shout as his hands pointed towards Riani and shouted Riani as his son's killer. The security guards took Cecilia and her family out of the courtroom.

"Darling, I'm grateful everything went well." Jack placed his hand on his wife's shoulder.

"I'm sure the truth will surely win against evil, Jack."

Sam as a family lawyer also seemed happy.

Cassie didn't come today because she wasn't allowed by Jack to come. He only came to testify at the first trial.

As they exited the courthouse, the reporters immediately hunted them down. Jack quickly protected his wife and the bodyguards soon formed a line of protection.

But Riani suddenly stopped her steps. "I'll face them, Jack."

"But, honey....."

Riani let go of Jack's hand that was hugging her waist. She took a deep breath and stood in front of Jack.

"What do you want to ask? I will be ready to answer." said Riani made the reporters a little surprised because they thought that all this time Riani did not dare to speak.

"Mrs Almond, has it been true that you knew your husband's affair with Cecilia Smith but left it alone?"

Riani smiled. "My husband doesn't cheat on me. His only mistake was that he got drunk that night and Cecilia took him to her apartment. My husband didn't know what happened that night until Cecilia finally came with her pregnancy confession and now accuses me of committing a heinous act on her. But I am very sure, the truth will definitely be revealed someday. You may feel that Cecilia's accusation is true. I don't care about your response. Because I know God is my defender and God Himself will declare it according to his time."

"Eh, Mrs Almond, is it true that you are from one of the villages in Indonesia?"

Jack seemed to dislike the question but Riani clasped Jack's hand.

"What if I'm from the village? Blame Jack for falling in love with a girl like me? But I love Jack not because he's famous. Because Jack came to propose to me as a simple man. Accepting the fact that Jack is a rich man today won't change the feelings of love between us."

"I love my wife. My love for him is more than I have ever felt for any woman." Jack said, staring at his wife. "She's the girl I've been waiting for all this time. Good afternoon. Come baby.....!"

The reporters were still chasing them but Jack pulled his wife into his car. Slowly the car driven by Sam left the court parking lot.

"You're great, Riani! I really salute you for giving such an amazing answer that silenced the mouths of those reporters. Because all this time, their news mostly defended Cecilia. There may also be some among those who have been paid by Cecilia to make you look bad in the public eye." praise Sam makes Riani just smile.

"I love you, baby." whispered Jack as he kissed his wife's cheek repeatedly making Sam who saw it from the rearview mirror shake his head.

"Jack, do I need to find a hotel?" ask Sam.

"Can too. My house is far away."

"Jack.....!" Riani pinched her husband's stomach.

"You have to get used to Jack's slightly arrogant, selfish, possessive and perverted attitude, Riani" said Sam made Jack immediately close the barrier between the front seat and the back seat.

"Sam's too chatty and I can't stand kissing you."

Riani was surprised but did not have time to refuse when her husband immediately kissed her lips very hard.

*********

Cassie's 13th birthday today. Riani and Jack had already prepared everything in the village house as Riani and Cassie had prepared all along.

Cassie's schoolmates were also invited. Riani actually wants Arma to attend but Arma's visa and both parents will be out next week.

Cassie looks happy with the pink dress Riani chose for her. Although what makes Jack sad is that his daughter turned cold to him.

As the temporary event unfolded, the Smith family suddenly came to bring a variety of cakes, gifts and sweetener of Cassie's idol teenager, Gerry Parker. Cassie's friends immediately shouted hysterically at the 17-year-old poet who was on the rise in England at this time.

Jack doesn't like it, but Riani calms him down. "Please baby, look, Cassie loves this atmosphere. Cassie's friends enjoyed it too."

Gerry's presence changed the atmosphere of Riani's arranged birthday party. Initially simple, it has now become so luxurious and glamorous. Cecilia even broadcast the party live on her own Chanel.

Jack finally walked into the house with a sullen face. Riani followed him.

"Darling.., don't be convinced. I know that you're jealous because Cassie's attention is now split with the Smiths. They are Camila's family."

Jack laid his body on the sofa while using his hands as a pillow.

"If Camila were still alive, she would never let Cassie near them. They used to dump Camila for marrying me. They thought Camila was selfish for hurting Cecilia."

Riani who was sitting next to her husband who was lying on the sofa so smiled. "They were also injured when Camila died. I can see the wound in Madam Viola's eyes. Maybe they regretted that they hurt Camila and eventually lost her. Cassie has a face that looks like you but there are some parts that look like Camila. So she's a blend of Almond virgin and Smith's blood."

Jack took Riani's hand. "Thank you dear. You can always calm my heart."

Just as Jack was about to kiss Riani, Leo suddenly walked in.

"Sir, Miss Cassie's friends are home and Miss Cassie asked me to bring her clothes to the Smith house because tonight she's leaving with her opa and oma." leo said a little scared because he knew what he was going to say this must make Jack angry.

"What's? How dare they take my son?" Jack jumped off the couch. Half-run he headed to the page where the HUT Cassie was held.

"Cassie's inside!" jack said in a soft but stressed voice.

"Sorry dad. Tonight I want to sleep in opa and Oma's house."

Jack's eyes immediately glared. "Lake in!"

"No!"
