Rise Of Rejected Husband Chapter 17
The policeman named Rick turned to Richard and stopped his steps. "You misunderstood." He smiled immediately at Richard after not paying the slightest attention to him. His hand moved to point at the group of teenagers. "They're just kids joking around, nothing serious." Richard looked at his shoulder, which the man tapped flatly, then moved his shoulder out of the man's reach. Richard knew what he was seeing and could judge for himself regarding their behavior that Rick had called a joke.For a joke, what they did was beyond the pale. They were harming others financially and mentally as well, so how could it be a joke? He wasn't sure he agreed with Rick."Their actions are not a joke, I'm sure you know, regarding the actions they committed can be subject to which articles." Richard was also not a person who did not understand the laws of his country.Rick smiled sarcastically in front of him. He was starting to feel tired of Richard's attitude that only wanted to make things difficu

The man named Jackson, who was called the commander, then looked sharply at Erick. "What are you doing? As a law enforcer, how can you behave so far from a role model?" Jackson snapped at him loudly, ignoring the stares of those looking at him, still in shock. Erick frowned. He didn't fully understand what Jackson was saying. He knew he had done the right thing in this situation. "It seems you misunderstood me, sir, but I did nothing wrong. I handled the situation with them as usual." He argued confidently. "I've done well. There is no problem." Erick knew handling the matter regarding those teenage boys was a bit of a departure from the rule of law, but if he had enforced the law properly on them, then the real problem would have been even bigger. So the best way is to make peace with the person the teenagers are bullying. Not only did he do it, but most of the police also handled it the same way when dealing with them, so it was not a mistake but perhaps a misunderstanding that

"I didn't expect you to know such an important person, Richard." The shopkeeper's uncle praised Richard's abilities that he did not expect. "I didn't think that you were such an influential person either." All this time, the Richard he knew was a man who lived simply, a man who worked hard for his family, and someone who bought things wisely in his place. Most of what Richard was looking for in that place were necessities and not antiques that were only used as displays. Richard smiled in response to the shopkeeper's uncle. "Well, that's about it." He felt a little awkward at his drastic change in status. "Uncle, you should not feel afraid if such a situation happens again in the future." The shopkeeper smiled weakly as he let his breath out in a long sigh. "I don't have much choice but to respond like that Richard." he lowered his face, still with a smile that strangely revealed something sad about his figure. The shopkeeper had an amiable demeanor and tended not to want to ma

Richard parked his car in one place, he was still in the same neighborhood. Not so far from where the shopkeeper's uncle Jack was.He walked down the small alleys that he used to pass by when he returned to his house. It was a fairly densely populated area. A smile appeared on Richard's lips as the ball from the small field rolled to his feet."Sir, can you throw the ball!" the boy on the sidelines shouted at him.Richard gently kicked the ball to him, at the other end the little boy received it well. "Thank you, sir!" he called back.His exclamation made Richard pay more attention to them, so he approached. It sat on some concrete pipes that were stacked up and became a pyramid there."This place has memories that can't be replaced, and it's still the same." Richard muttered under his breath, looking around him attentively.Besides his painful story with Jasmine, Richard had other memories of that place that he spent alone.Although there was no meaningful interaction, he was still a

"Who are you? Her grandson?" The stranger named Reynold looked at Richard who was between them. Before Richard could answer and was still watching him, the man spoke again loudly. "If you are her grandson, you should take good care of your grandmother." He pointed at Emy.Amy, who almost fell and was held by Richard, then corrected her body position to be able to stand properly. He moved very slowly, making Richard pay more attention to him and help him. Although Richard let Amy stand on her own feet, he still gave her a hand by giving her his arm to hold on to."What's your problem?" Richard averted his eyes after making sure Amy was standing better and holding on to her. "You shouldn't come to an old man's place with such a loud voice." Richard ignored the man's large body that stood non-dominantly.The small and thin Amy standing in front of the stocky Reynold with a tall stature and black skin made her look very scary from Emy's point of view, especially when her voice spoke loudl

"You've really divorced him?" Amy stared in surprise at Richard, holding back by holding his arm.Richard nodded his head nonchalantly, unlike Amy who asked cautiously, Richard didn't try to hide his divorce.Amy was still not distracted from her shock. "Then you should use the money to buy your wife a gift, make her happy so that she will accept you again." Amy pressed him, her tone sounding panicked.The old woman felt bad. She heard the news that Richard had divorced his wife, made her not want to make Richard's situation worse and make it worse. She couldn't help Richard but at least he also didn't want to burden Richard by letting Richerd pay off her debts.Amy with her weakened body, struggled to stand up and pushed Richard out. "You don't need to help me, just go... go and see your wife." She kept pushing Richard's arm to get out of there, but Richard held the advancing woman and pushed her with difficulty to keep from falling. "Don't think about me. I'll be fine. You think of

"What are you doing?" the voice shouted as a horde of people burst into his place with black clothes, baseball bats, and golf clubs in their hands.Reynold, the man who collected the debt from Amy, looked panicked after he opened the door that was being banged loudly from outside. He moved backward even though he realized what he should have done was the opposite. The men stood up, each finding a place for themselves as they glanced around the small cooperative office with its tall flowers.They ignored Reynold with an obvious anxious attitude on his face. The stocky man's feet stepped in the reverse direction. He had been taking steps backward without paying attention to the objects behind him. He was knocked down several times by what hit him from behind."Stop it! Don't do that. Stop!... I said stop!" he shouted hysterically as some of them began to smash the baseball bats and golf clubs they were carrying against the tables, urns, and various items they could smash. "What are you

Richard was in the lobby of a luxury hotel. He sat there dressed quite neatly despite his modest appearance, with a tab in his hand, Richard handled his work quietly, without anyone disturbing him.The surroundings looked calm, everything looked peaceful with each other's activities not disturbing each other. In the middle of his time monitoring his work indirectly, Richard took a slow sip of the coffee on his desk. Even so, his gaze did not move at all from the tab screen in his hand."You remember our appointment today, don't you?" a woman's voice was loud enough to make him briefly move his gaze due to distraction.Richard saw a woman in a fairly revealing ball gown walking by, as the woman got closer, a strong scent of perfume wafted from her and pierced Richard's sense of smell which was disturbed by the dizzying smell. Richard then closed his eyes as he noticed the woman sitting on another chair right beside him, out of the corner of his eye.The odor of the woman's pungent perf

One evening, after a few hours, more than one helicopter landed in the village area, and the whole village became crowded because of this.They did not expect that the missing person who had been searched for by the strangers who came to the village was still alive. To them, it was quite impossible; considering what the storm was like that day and the ocean was a fierce place, they did not think that the missing person was still safe and intact."Mr. Richard." Smith got off first and came to him hurriedly.The 45-year-old man hugged Richard so tightly and emotionally that he had almost given up hope in his quest to find Richard. He himself had even stopped hoping that the possibility of Richard being alive and somewhere was such a great miracle. He was alive and found somewhere.Smith released his embrace and looked at Richard with happiness mixed with emotion. "I'm glad you're okay, sir."After Smith let go, James, who was led by Rachel, hugged him tightly. "I trust you are doing wel

"Alright, then. Tomorrow, we will go to look for your family's whereabouts." Alexa made the choice; Richard looked at her, who seemed confused.Richard didn't understand why Alexa seemed so serious when they had never discussed it with obvious effort before. "Why all of a sudden?" he wondered if perhaps they no longer wanted him there. Is it possible that my presence is becoming inconvenient?"Alexa smiled with a shaded face, her head shook, and her hand rubbed lightly over the back of Richard's hand, trying to get his attention. "No, it's not. Your existence is not inconvenient at all; quite the opposite. I'm honestly grateful to have you here." Alexa pursed her lips tightly and turned her attention to stare straight back ahead.She stared at the vast and calm expanse of the sea. Her feelings about letting go of Richard were still quite reluctant. She had a great desire to keep Richard there, but she also didn't want to be selfish."Today my friend came to tell me that in the village

After finishing cleaning up, Richard went to Alexa, who also seemed to be cleaning up the glasses in their house's living room.Richard's eyes scanned the place, looking for the whereabouts of the guest whose voice had been heard earlier when he entered through the back door. "Has the guest gone home?" he glanced over and helped Alexa.Without hesitation, Richard's hand took over the tray Alexa was carrying and placed it in the kitchen. At the same time, Alexa followed suit, carrying the snack container. "Yes, they're home." She replied flatly, without any expression that sounded cheerful from her answer.Richard watched her, noticing something a little different about Alexa's demeanour compared to usual. He thought maybe the guests had affected her mood, or maybe something else was to blame. He wasn't sure exactly, but even he didn't want to ask if Alexa didn't seem to want to explain. "Who are the guests who came?" She made small talk while walking towards the dining table.Approach

"Jacob, where are you going?" one of the villagers greeted Richard, who seemed to be walking with an axe in his hand. "Are you heading to the forest?" he asked enthusiastically because he was happy to see Richard, one of the new residents there.Richard, who had just managed to turn around and look for who was talking to him, smiled and nodded. "Morning, Mr. Jack." He politely greeted the old man whom he recognized as Sam's friend."Yes, morning, young man." He smiled kindly in response to Richard's greeting. "If you have time, come to the house. You promised to help me yesterday when you were free."Richard nodded. "Later, when I am free, I will try to drop by, sir. " He selflessly helped some nearby neighbours who needed his help.It had been a month since he had been in that place, and now he was living a very normal life there. Just like everyone else, Richard also had his own activities. Sometimes, he joined some men to go fishing at sea, without him knowing that he used to be a

Sitting in his private room, James looked anxiously at the picture frame containing Richard's picture. For days, he had been waiting for news of Richard and conducted a massive search. But the search was ultimately fruitless. There were still no reports of Richard's whereabouts or any signs of him being stranded somewhere.Her worries grew as time passed. The first 24 hours after Richard disappeared were the golden hour to find his whereabouts and determine whether he was in good or bad condition.But a week had passed since then, and there was still no further news of his whereabouts."Is there still no sign of Richard's whereabouts?" James asked Smith in the room.His anxiety was rife with other things, his heart was in turmoil, and his feelings had become chaotic since Richard's whereabouts were declared missing.The news of Richard's disappearance made him not stop thinking about where Richard was and what the situation was like. His condition, which he continues to worry about, c

"What took you so long to come back?" Alexa, who was waiting there, turned her head and noticed Richard, who had just returned, walking over to her.Richard nodded his head. "In line." he took over the groceries held by Alexa.Telling her about what he experienced while inside earlier, for him, Alexa didn't need to know that the Baron was still bothering him. Apart from not wanting to make the woman anxious, he also didn't want Alexa to have a particular view of his attitude that could be considered rude by her.He smiled at the woman. "Do we have anything else to do? Or do you want us to go home?"Alexa helped Richard carry a few easy things to take to not burden Richard too much. "Let's just go home; it's too late. Tomorrow, I have to get up early to store breakfast because Dad will be leaving early in the morning." She started to leave the place, followed by Richard, who walked beside her."Tomorrow morning? Where is Sam going?""Dad said there is someone he needs to help. One of t

Alexa glanced at Richard with a gaze that stared strangely at him."Why are you looking at me like that?" Richard, who realized her gaze, then asked.Alexa headed back to stare straight ahead. "I was just wondering. How could you do that? When you did it earlier, I looked so expert. Unlike someone who just tried, your posture and then the techniques you used seemed to clearly show that you were an expert." She looked back at Richard in confusion. "Tell me, how did you do it?"Richard looked at her in silence for a while. Like Alexa, he was confused by what had been done. He did not expect that his ability was that great.The more he thought about it, the more astonished he became. He obviously didn't remember anything at all., but strangely, he could do it all so well. "I don't know., Richard shook his head as he replied. "I'm not sure myself what I'm doing and how I'm doing it so well. All I feel is that my body knows how to do it." He explained the confusion to Alexa.After hearing

"No, it can't be like that. I disagree that I should stay away from her." Baron rejected their agreement, which he agreed to without thinking.Obviously, Baron rejected Richard's request to limit his interaction with Alexa. He dared challenge Richard and felt hateful and annoyed at him because Alex was the reason. He didn't want any other man or Richard to get close to him.Baron has liked Alexa for a long time, and Jack, from their teenage stuff, has always followed and been attracted to her. But his feelings were unrequited because Alexa didn't show any interest in him at all.The Baron knew that. He knew that Alexa didn't like him, but he still tried to get close to her, hoping that someday Alexa would change her mind. He kept trying and never gave up because he thought that maybe his efforts would be rewarded with what he hoped for someday.But if he couldn't get close to her in the end just because he lost the bet, then his efforts all this time were futile and ridiculous.He sho

The two of them were now in their respective positions, wearing a set of arrows and getting ready in place. He arrows where they were. They were surrounded by people who wanted to witness the showdown between the two.On one side, Richard only came along with Alexa, who was currently so nervous and anxious about the possibility of Richard's condition getting a bad name with this challenge.On the other hand, Baron was surrounded by friends who were eager to see Richard defeated. The young men of the village clearly disliked Richard's existence and the way Richard behaved towards them.Specifically, they didn't need a reason to dislike Richard because even just looking at him could immediately make them dislike him and want to look down on him."Shouldn't you undo your intentions, Jacob?" Alexa approached him again and spoke in a worried tone.She was distraught, having promised her father that she would look after Richard. She would take Richard there with the insight that maybe from
