"Yes! Are you still pretending to be surprised?" asked Anaya sarcastically."Darren! What are you doing?" Amina asked angrily when she heard that Nana was pregnant. And Amina must have felt very disappointed with Darren for doing such a thing, even though Amina didn't know the truth yet. He was only provoked to hear what Anaya said."Pregnant?" Darren asked again and still couldn't believe his ears."Stop pretending! You're the one who destroyed it! Now you want to tell me that you were shocked after getting her pregnant?" asked Anaya, annoyed.Darren took a deep breath, and now he knows Nana's intention to come to his office and try to be kind to him because Nana needs a man who is willing to take responsibility for her pregnancy.Nana must be embarrassed because she is a public figure, and Darren is sure that it is unknown who impregnated her with Nana's pregnancy, so he will frame her. Instantly, Darren's mind returned to some predeceased time, when he married Renata, who was preg
"You misunderstood," Darren said, looking into Renata's eyes."No! I didn't misunderstand. I heard that Nana was pregnant. Once again, congrats!"Renata forced a smile on Darren, who quickly wiped away her tears. It felt like her chest was so tight when she heard that Darren was getting married. Moreover, Nana was already pregnant, which meant that Darren had been in a relationship with Nana for quite some time. And stupidly, she willingly accepted Darren's offer to make a mistake."I don't know who she got pregnant with; suddenly her mother came here, forcing me to marry Nana. Obviously I refused; I've never done anything to her anyway," said Darren, immediately fixing the current problem.Darren didn't want the misunderstanding to continue because he currently had so many problems to solve and didn't want to add to the burden anymore."Why do you refuse?" asked Renata with a pounding chest. Renata remembered that she, like Nana, was pregnant without knowing who the person who had pl
"Um, I think I should go home," Renata said after being silent for a while and immediately standing up.Darren could only scratch his head that didn't itch to hear Noah's request, which was beyond their predictions, and both of them were actually very surprised why Noah suddenly said that."Mama, look forward to going home," whined Noah, who then held Renata's leg so that Renata wouldn't leave him."It's late; tomorrow mom wants to work," said Darren, who was trying to persuade Noah to let go of his hand that was holding Renata's leg."Just sleep with Noah and Papa," Noah answered again.Renata sighed heavily, and finally what they were afraid of happened: Noah with his very difficult request to grant. The older Noah is, the more he will understand that his father and mother should live together, not separately as they are now.Renata sat down to be level with Noah and stroked the child's head gently. "Honey, Mama can't sleep here. Mama has to work and can't be late. And also, Mama do
"Darren, your mother is talking seriously," Amina said, pulling Darren's nose.Darren smiled at Amina; he didn't know what to say to her because even now he couldn't do anything. Just now, Anaya left after asking him to marry Nana. And now Amina comes to him, asking him to marry Renata."That is very desirable, ma'am. But, so far, Renata has not been able to accept my proposal. He doesn't want our marriage to be an excuse for Martano to hurt me," Darren answered while looking at Amina.Darren hoped that Amina would understand his condition like this because he also had to respect Renata's wishes. He couldn't force Renata to get them married right away."But I think marriage is also the best way for you to be able to raise Noah together. What reasons will you give if Renata has to go home tomorrow?" Amina asked Darren.Even though Amina still can't accept Renata with all her heart, she has no other choice. She also feels sorry for Noah, who really hopes that his parents will unite."I'
"Sir, someone wants to meet Mr. Darren this morning," answered Daffa on the other end of the phone in a voice that looked a little uncomfortable.Darren frowned and looked at his cellphone screen, even though it was only six in the morning. And to his surprise, Daffa even called to say that there were guests."Are you staying at the office?" Darren asked in surprise."No sir. I just got a call from the security guard at the office who said there was someone who wanted to meet Mr. Darren. And now I'm getting ready to go to work," Daffa answered."People are not sane, huh? How come he can visit an office so early? Does he think we're sleeping in the office?" chuckled Darren, who didn't care about what Daffa said.For Darren, let it be done later in the office, and everyone has to know Davano's operational schedule, and they have to wait until Darren arrives. Unless you have made an appointment beforehand,"He is Martano, sir," answered Daffa then.Darren was silent when he heard what Da
"Since earlier," Renata answered quietly and walked over to Darren."Don't think about it; as a fellow entrepreneur, surely your father will have a reason to come to my office. Maybe there will be cooperation that will be offered," said Darren, trying to explain to Renata so that Renata would not be emotional or angry with Martano."What offer? Do not be too positive; my father is not a person like that. I agree with Alisa, who asked you not to come to the office, because we don't want you to have new problems," Renata said hopefully, looking into Darren's eyes.Darren shook his head. Currently, the two women who are with him support each other in asking him not to come to the office, and more precisely, they don't want Darren to meet Martano, who is now waiting for him at the office.No matter what Darren explained to Alisa and Renata, they would definitely come up with their own opinion. Not to mention that if Amina knows about this problem, Darren will definitely find it very diffi
"I never hide anything," Darren answered casually, taking a bottle of mineral water that was already on the table."What do you mean?" asked Martano, starting to be unable to hold back his emotions."So far, only people don't know, and there's no point in admitting that I'm Rudi Zervano's son? Why are you bothered?" he asked.Martano still seemed to be looking at Darren with a sharp gaze as he examined the appearance of a man he once knew as poor and useless. Even Darren was once his son-in-law. How could he not recognize his own son-in-law?And for a long time, Martano had been full of curiosity about Darren's origins, and all this time he had not been able to discover the truth. However, it turns out that Darren is the person he's been looking for. He had to kill the Zervano family, especially when it happened a dozen years ago. Darren was a silent witness to the deaths of Rudi Zervano and his wife."What do you want when you don't admit it when I repeatedly ask about Rudi Zervano?"
"What do you mean?" asked Martano nervously, looking away from Darren.It was very clear that Martano looked surprised to hear what Darren said. Maybe he didn't expect Darren to say something like that."Just a question, because what I know is that all of my father's debts have been paid off. His wealth was gone when they died, and it's very strange that now, suddenly, my father still has debts. Because at that time it was clear in court that Rudi Zervano no longer had any debts!" Darren replied, explaining so much.Martano was really surprised, especially when he found out that Darren still remembered all the court decisions."Excuse me!" Martano said, then left the room immediately.Darren just shrugged his shoulders when Daffa looked at him in surprise when Martano suddenly said goodbye. Even though Martano had earlier insisted on meeting Darren. And after the meeting, he left so quickly that it wasn't even known what he wanted when he came to Davano's office.Martano rushed out an
