Chapter 12

A FEW HOURS AGO~

Suhaimi asked questions to Mama in the ward.

"Task? What task?"

Mama raised her face to look at Suhaimi who was standing elderly in front of her.

"Help me..investigate Veronica's background."

Suhaimi was a little surprised. Her tongue was numb to ask again.

"Since I started getting sick..my son-in-law's behaviour is a bit different than usual. Investigate everything about her..report to me if you get any information about her."

Mama's instructions to her.

"Yes, ma'am."

Suhaimi obeyed his order since Mama was her employer.

"And one more thing, let our discussion be a secret. I don't want anyone else to know about this. Understand?"

"Yes, ma'am."

"Keep this a secret from Hazre...Don't tell him about our discussion."

Suhaimi obeyed Mama's orders. Mama had instructed Suhaimi to investigate Veronica. That was their secret discussion. Unbeknownst to Hazre, Suhaimi easily carried out the investigation thoroughly. Suhaimi's task was more focused on Veronica. Mama hoped that Suhaimi's investigation would be able to give true information about Veronica.

Aiysah, with a smile, stopped her car in front of a restaurant. She parked her car next to Azmar's car. Then she quickly got out of the car toward the restaurant.

"Rafyena, where are you?"

Said Aiysah, looking at Rafyena in the kitchen with a smile.

"I like to mess up, don't you?"

Veronica said. By accident, she looked for the direction of the voice. She finally saw the two of them still sitting there eating. But to her surprise, the face of Rosalina's husband, who was her best friend, was also there. Her eyes were wide.

"That..that's Azmar, isn't it.."

She said in a surprised tone. She quickly ran into the kitchen. Azmar almost caught Aiysah, who was running towards the kitchen. Behind the wall of the kitchen door, Aiysah watched them both from afar. Aiysah began to suspect something.

"Who is that girl?"

She said in a whisper. Rafyena, who had just noticed her standing behind the kitchen wall, quickly approached her. It was a bit strange to see Aiysah behaving like that.

"Hey, what are you looking at?"

"Shhh..don't be noisy. I'm investigating this."

Aiysah said warningly. Rafyena also watched the movements of Azmar and Veronica. She didn't know, just let her friend's behaviour go on.

"Do you love me?"

"I must love you...I love you very much.."

They expressed their feelings to each other there. Aiysah's sensitive ears were also surprised to hear it. In addition, the two of them were also holding hands on the table. That added to Aiysah's suspicion of the relationship between the two of them.

"It won't...Azmar is cheating with Ros?"

Aiysah said while being surprised. Hearing the truth, she immediately reached for her phone and took a picture of the two of them. Now, the proof is in Aiysah's hands.

"Let's go back... I want to breathe fresh air outside. Here, I feel short of breath."

Veronica said, inviting Azmar.

"Okay, you wait for me outside."

"Hmm.."

Veronica stepped out of there. Her heart was relieved to be able to get out of that disgusting place. Azmar stood up and looked for the restaurant's waiter. Rafyena quickly approached him after being called.

Aiysah was leaning against the wall. She felt surprised. But at the same time, she felt sad. It was unexpected that Rosalina, who didn't know anything about her husband, was now rampaging with other women. That also hurt Aiysah's heart as her friend.

Rafyena, who finished accepting Azmar's payment, immediately put the money into the money machine. After finishing, she approached Aiysah who was in the kitchen.

"Aiysah.."

She was surprised to see Aiysah sitting leaning against the kitchen wall with a gloomy face.

"Aiysah, why is this?"

Aiysah asked. Her face lifted slowly to look at Rafyena who was standing in front of her. She looked sad.

"How to do this?"

Aiysah is confused. She thought long and hard after knowing Azmar's true attitude. Will Aiysah tell Rosalina or will she just keep quiet to cover up Azmar's mistakes?

This time is the same as yesterday. Azmar and Veronica did not return home. But it is even more painful that Alif, who was waiting for his father's return, still did not return home after two nights. Rosalina was also a little worried that Alif had fallen asleep on the sofa waiting for him in the living room. Rosalina called Azmar many times. This time his calls had not been answered since the day before. His anxiety is getting worse.

At the same time as Rosalina's situation, Hazre also tried to contact Veronica. Just like Rosalina's fate, the call was never answered. Finally, Hazre gave up on calling. His modest body finally leaned back and sat on the sofa.

After his calls went unanswered several times, he received a message from Veronica. He quickly unlocked the screen and read the message.

"I'm with my friends... I'll be back later."

Veronica's message was written there. Hazre sighed for a long time before he thought again.

"Why is she busy with her friends?"

The question arose there. He felt strange. The same reason as yesterday. He thought for a moment. Without delay, he dialled Erika's number. The call was not answered. Then he dialled Merlyn's number again. The call was finally answered.

"Hey, Veronica. Where are you? I've been looking for you since yesterday, do you know? You said you wanted to hang out together tonight.."

Hazre's eyes widened as he heard Merlyn's words. He was already thinking nonsense.

"Hello, Veronica... Hey, why are you silent? Answer me, where were you last night?"

Hazre didn't make any sound. With his shocked face, he turned off the call. He thought for a moment.

"If..she said that? Where did she go?"

Finally, Veronica's lie was exposed. He did not think that Veronica was willing to lie to him. She returned home late with the excuse that she was with her friends. But the fact is that she was not with her friends at all. So, where did Veronica go for those two nights? His mind was full of that question. What will Hazre do after knowing Veronica's lie?

#####

Suhaimi, who was still busy with his work, was still hanging around outside. He was waiting for someone while carrying the document.

"Sorry, I'm late.."

Suhaimi quickly looked toward the voice. A man in a hut was standing in front of him. Suhaimi quickly handed the enveloped document to him.

"Please let me find all the real details in this document. When you are done, call me. I left the phone number on the envelope."

"Okay."

"Do it quietly."

The man agreed with Suhaimi's instructions. By giving a nod of the head, they walked in the opposite direction. Suhaimi, for the time being, brutally remained silent, waiting for the decision of the brutal man to find the answer. The task remains to be carried out. Suhaimi has the principle of such a life. The task given must be carried out well so that both get equal benefits. Will Suhaimi succeed in finding important information about Veronica? Will the secret between Azmar and Veronica be revealed? And what will happen after this between Hazre and Rosalina?
