Emily just gasped when she heard Tama call Axell and Zahra such familiar nicknames. Meanwhile, he was ignored by his child.It's not Tama's fault; he's just a child who doesn't know anything yet and only knows people who are good and close to him all this time."First of all. Tama and Rikel, this is Mommy Emily," said Axell, asking his two children to greet Emily.Tama just didn't move; she was still looking confused at Emily, who suddenly hugged her and cried, and now Axell called her Mommy."Tama, come and sit near Papa. There's something you want to tell Tama," said Axell, asking Tama to sit on his lap.Tama just obeyed, while Rikel immediately sat in Zahra's arms."Tama, this is Mommy Emily. Tama's biological mother, who was pregnant and gave birth to you," Axell said quietly while stroking Tama's hair."From now on, call she Mommy," continued Axell.Meanwhile, Tama just nodded slowly."Ikel too, Pa?" Rikel asked curiously."Oh, Rikel wants to call Mommy too?" Axell asked Rikel."
"Ouch!" someone behind Emily groaned.When she was about to turn around in Emily's typical barbaric style, the paperbag she was holding accidentally hit someone's head, causing the person's sunglasses to fall.Emily turned around."Emily!" call the person hysterical, even though their intention was to be angry.Emily was silent for a long time, looking thoughtful and pretending to forget."Ben!" shouted Emily, who immediately hugged her best friend tightly."Eh, you still haven't changed from just hugging; if my wife were around, I'd be done for. Where are you sticking your chest again?" said Ben, who was immediately met with a headbutt by Emily.Meanwhile, Ben just laughed and hugged Emily's body again."You look like you're being chased by debt collectors; what's wrong?" Ben asked while looking around, like Emily."Hahahaha... No way. How are you, Ben?" Emily asked, laughing."As you can see, I'm getting cooler and more handsome, and what's clear is more powerful," said Ben while bl
"Poor Zahra didn't do anything wrong, mom," said Axell, taking a deep breath."Do you love Zahra?" asked Mrs. Celine, who was able to make Axell turn around and understand the meaning of his mother's words."Do you need to answer, mom?" Axell asked."You don't love her, do you?" asked Mrs. Celine."You don't need to ask me; you just need to answer my question. Why do you hate Zahra?" Axell repeated the same question.Without them realizing it, Zahra was listening from above to what they were talking about, and there was also Mrs. Ania, who accidentally heard the two mothers and children arguing."I hate her because she took my child, whom I only held for a few months. I felt the happiness of living with you. However, now it has been taken away by the presence of Zahra," answered Mrs. Celine while sobbing."Mama is jealous of Zahra." Axell asked.Mrs. Celine just nodded and looked down."Gosh," said Axell, brushing his hair roughly. A second later, Axell hugged his mother tightly.Mrs.
Axell looked frustrated; it felt like problems were coming in a row, not to mention one of the people he saw coming to his house this morning."What other drama?" Axell asked as he walked towards the gate."What's the matter, sir?" Axell asked the security on duty.Security looked back and saw that Axell was standing behind him."Hmmm, this woman and man want to meet Mr. Axell but don't want to show their identity, sir," said security."Okay, let them in," said Axell.Security opened the fence and invited guests to sit on the terrace."Please sit down," said Axell flatly, welcoming two of his guests, one of whom he knew was called Vina, Zahra's former sister-in-law, who was destroying Zahra's shop and house."Thank you, Mr. Axell," said Vina softly."What are you doing here?" Axell asked without further ado."I want to apologize to Zahra," Vina answered quietly, hopefully."Zahra has forgiven you, so there's no need to come this early. Because we're having breakfast," said Axell."We
The message that Axell sent to Zahra still had two gray marks, meaning it had not been read. Axell was anxious about what was happening at home and where Zahra was, so he didn't read the message.Not long after, Axell's cellphone received a message from Zahra, which made Axell breathe a sigh of relief.'[Just got home; Gina picked her up while she was angry at Vina.]'Axell smiled, meaning Hardi asked his wife to pick up his brother.'[Okay, are the kids home?]' asked Axell again.'[Not yet.]'Axell's mind was confused; he felt guilty about Zahra. Since meeting Emily yesterday, his head has been filled with images of Emily, even though Zahra was sleeping in the same bed as him."What is God planning for me?" Axell thought.What a painful coincidence for everyone! Axell waited for Emily to return for five years without success, until he gave up on the situation. When he met Zahra, they got married. Even on the third day after getting married, he met Emily again.It's so funny how life
"What is it, honey?" Zahra asked when Tama started to calm down; only the occasional sobs could still be heard.Tama was still silent, while Mrs. Celine asked Rikel, who only got an answer in the form of a shake of the head from Rikel, who was also confused by Tama's attitude after leaving the classroom crying."Where are Aunt Sri and Yuda?" asked Mrs. Celine, intimidating Aunt Sri, who was in charge of looking after the children during school."Auntie is waiting near the parking lot; there is a waiting room for parents and guardians. Yuda is standing by in the parking lot, ma'am," answered Aunt Sri, afraid."So during school you don't look after the children?" asked Mrs. Celine."Instructors or parents are not allowed to enter the classroom area, ma'am. There is a teacher to look after them," replied Aunt Sri with reason."Why did Zahra and Axell do it yesterday?" asked Mrs. Celine probingly while looking at Zahra."Yesterday we asked for permission, and that was in front of the teac
Axell opened the bedroom door slowly and found Zahra and Tama reading a story book."What is it?" Axell asked while looking at Tama and Zahra alternately."It's okay; Emily just met Tama at school," said Zahra."Emily?" Axell asked in surprise, because earlier at home, Emily didn't even mention that she had met Tama at school."Yes, his mother gave him a remote control toy car," said Zahra, winking at Axell, as if telling him she would tell him everything later. Wait for Tama to come out.Axell understood, then just nodded.For two hours Axell was at Emily's house. Emily didn't talk at all about meeting Tama; she only talked about how her struggles in a foreign country worked while studying, which made her get up and become what she is today.Axell remembered his conversation with Emily earlier..."These years are starting to get a little calmer; turnover is starting to rise. The shop is starting to stabilize," said Emily."Why don't you come straight to me and Tama?" Axell asked."I
On the way home, Axell received a call from Ari, the secretary. The information conveyed made Axell hold back his anger."Sir, there is bad news," said Ari on the other end of the phone."What, Ri?" Axell asked casually."Mr. Gio, President and Director of Axell Waned Group sub unit Orchid, submitted a letter of resignation," said Ari."Gio?" Axell asked in disbelief."Yes, sir, the next information might be even more shocking, sir," said Ari."What happened?" Axell asked.“Mr. Gio has embezzled $5 billion in company money, and what's worse is that he built the same company as our company that he manages," said Ari.Axell was no longer too focused on Ari's conversation; he was disappointed and angry. The person who used to be his confidant is now a thorn in his flesh."So far, he has never reported a lack of money, always updating profits," said Axell angrily."Yes, sir, he never manipulated data. However, the company's money is empty," answered Ari."That's called robbery, Ri," said
