***Santoso Family Residence***
Sindi looked towards her husband. The woman wants Mike to provide a solution to the problems Mona faces.
"Mbak Sindi.kita both women, mbak also once in my position as it is today. I know Sindi must understand how I feel now." Mona said as she tightly grasped both hands of Sindi, with tears on her beautiful face.
"Dear, I don't understand." Reply to Sindi who really loves her sister-in-law.
"Do you know about this?" Mike asked in the end could not bear to keep quiet.
Sindi and Mona look up at Mike.
"Yes Mas. Bara knew, and we agreed to keep it a secret." Reply Mona while nodding her head.
Mike and Sindi fell silent. Mike then breathed slowly.
"Do you two know that your womb has been lifted?" Ask Mike back.
"Yes Mas. " Mona Reply justifies.
"If Bara finds out, that means he can keep accepting you for what you have been?" Ask Sindi.
"Yes, ma'am."
"Mona, that means your husband loves you very much. Then why don't you appreciate Bara's love." Ask Sindi.
"I also loved Bara very much, but our love was meaningless in the eyes of the Bara family. Those who so desire a progeny even want me a divorce, if not also give Bara a child." It's clear Mona was the problem a few weeks ago.
Mike and Sindi are furious to hear Mona's explanation of the Daimos' selfishness. But again they thought, what would happen if Bara did not have children or heirs. All his wealth and business empire would be taken over by the Daimos side family who had successors to them.
"But you don't want to if you can't get pregnant and give birth to a child. Sometimes people are selfish just because we women can't get pregnant and give birth." Gerrutu Sindi was annoyed, he was once in the position of Mona now. Not very pleasant for him.
Mike feels insinuated by Sindi's words, but he who used to have no choice. His family also wanted and needed a successor to the Santoso family, as well as the Daimos family now.
"We men are not selfish, but our family only needs a successor." Bela Mike who felt insinuated by his wife.
"Buktinya. He can still accept Mona as she is. Only her family sued Mona." Bela Mike added.
Sindi kept silent while turning her face to the side, lazily arguing with her husband who would not want to lose in the argument.
"Mona.I don't want to defend the Daimos family and corner you. But if you think logically, those who are noble, noble and wealthy families would want a successor to inherit their business empire that will not run out to seven descendants." Obviously Mike is trying to give his understanding to his brother.
"I know Mas.so for that I beg you.Please me.Let Cira be Bara's contract wife and surrogate mother to give birth to my son and Bara." Mona recalled the first plan she made a few minutes ago.
"But Mona..Cira is too young…!!" Sindi said she could not let go if her adopted daughter was made a contract wife and a surrogate mother by Mona and Bara.
Although Sindi's affection was greater for Caroline, she could not lie in her heart. Her heart also loved Cira during her life, only that her affection should be limited by her husband's attitude that gave warning to her, in order to be ordinary towards Cira, her poor adopted daughter.
Mona knew that Sindi was not willing if Cira was made a contract wife and surrogate mother, although her brother-in-law did not say so. Mona knew how that woman she had known for a long time.
"So Cira was young, she was stronger and healthier to give birth to my son and Bara. I beg you…!" Please Mona with the face made as sad as possible.
If he persuades his brother-in-law he can't, the only way is his brother Mike. If the man agrees, his wife agrees. If it had to be in a threatening way, Mona would have done that. Most importantly, the goal is achieved.
"Mas.I promise to persuade Mas Bara to give you an injection of funds, as long as Mas leave Cira to me and Bara." Mona took a serious look at Mike.
Sindi is shocked by Mona's words, How could they sell her adopted son as Mona says.
"Mona.why are you talking like that.We don't sell our daughter…!" Sindi was surprised to see Mona.
Mona doesn't care about her brother-in-law's words, she still looks up to Mike and hopes the man she's older brother agrees.
"Buck…!!" Call Sindi to her husband.
Mike thought back and digested what Mona said. This is a good deal and opportunity that Mona has put to her. Although heavy, but the fate of the company is more important. The Santoso Company is the future and the place to scavenge the coffers of the windfall. If the company is bankrupt and lost, they will certainly be in trouble in the future.
"All right, I agree." Reply Mike finally relented agreeing to save his company.
"Buck…!" Calling Sindi slightly raised her tone, she could not believe that her husband would sell his adopted daughter.
"Sindi.you know our company is in crisis and is on the verge of bankruptcy. I need big funds to recover it, there's no harm in us doing this." Said Mike trying to give understanding to Sindi.
"Yes, the contract is only until the child is born. Cira will be free soon." Mona. Sindi was silent at the sight of her sister-in-law.
"I beg you.just guess my hope." Please Mona.
"Sindi, if Mona continues to be in the Daimus family. It's also good for our family. You also know, ever since Mona married Bara. Our families are respected, our families are getting better." Mike reminded me of what happened.
"For our heroes to foster from childhood to adulthood, at least he can also be useful and help this family who is in trouble." Mike Reveal.
Sindi is silent, but her tears fall because she feels pain about Cira's fate. His adopted daughter, who since childhood, has been an orphan. Although short, for 2 years Little Cira filled his empty and empty heart because he wanted a child.
Can Sindi give up an adopted daughter that her husband never took for granted? Can she see her adopted daughter become a surrogate mother and contract wife of her own foster aunt husband? A mother's heart is being tested here, a test so severe for Sindi's heart.
A while had passed, Sindi's chaotic heart and feelings had not improved at all. The decision was taken, and her husband agreed to Mona's request.
However strongly Sindi refuses and forbids Mike and Mona's plans, she has no power to listen to her words. Sindi can only remain silent even though her heart is hurt and sick of the fate of her adopted daughter, Elcira Ardelia.
Elcira grew up and matured in her upbringing and supervision all this time. Although Elcira was not his flesh and blood, in Sindi's heart he always loved his daughter. When Elcira baby has completed and perfected her life as a woman and mother. Elcira filled the void in her heart, and Elcira was like cold water as everyone insulted her as a barren woman.
How could he see his little girl married to his own tantric husband, even though they had no blood ties. Sindi lost to being a mother who could not maintain the dignity, rights and honor of her daughter.
Mona has come home with new hopes for her future life. Mike agrees to conduct a business exchange between them. Mike gets an injection of funds from Bara, while Mona and Bara get the surrogate mother they want.
"Sindi.I hope you will always support me. It's a decision I made myself, for the company. You should be able to persuade Elcira at all costs? This marriage must be done." Mike said he didn't care about Sindi's tears of sadness.
"You understand Sindi." Say again.
"Do I have a choice, Mom…! If it makes you satisfied, I let it go. Maybe it's the fate of our daughter." Reply Sindi with her sharp gaze.
"She's not our daughter." Reply firmly Mike refused Elcira, if he told his daughter.
"Not our daughter.Yes, you're right Mas. She's my daughter…!" Sindi did not like Mike's rejection of the status of his adopted daughter Elcira.
"As far as you are concerned, you don't agree or don't support me. This marriage will continue. And I hope you don't do anything." Mike's warning to Sindi.
Mike leaves Sindi alone in the study, the woman still weeping over Elcira's fate.
"I'm sorry Mama Cira.I'm sorry this weak mama my dear, my little daughter." His wife was sad to imagine how her daughter's future would be bleak.
Sindi vented all the tightness in her heart in a crying manner, because after this she had to be strong to let her daughter go.
"May you someday have a better life and happiness that you never felt, my dear…!" He cried sadly.
...--------------------------------...
After dinner, all the members of Santoso gathered in the living room. Sindi and Mike sat on a sofa that was enough for the two of them, while Caroline and Cira sat on a single sofa that was there.
The two girls know that now papa and her mother are not okay. At dinner, after their aunt's return. Both of their parents are in serious trouble.
"Ma..pa.... What's wrong? Why are we gathering here?" Caroline asked to start first.
Cira just silently observed the mother and foster father who was in front of her now. The girl never dared to say it before she was asked.
Mike pulled and exhaled slowly. Before he finally expressed his intention quickly, briefly and densely.
"I thought I'd get married soon." Mike said quickly. Success took a surprised look at the two girls in the living room.
"Will Sira get married?" Caroline did not believe it.
"Yes. Cira's getting married soon, because papa has agreed she's in a match." Reply Mike was still calmly without the slightest burden. It's for the company and his sister who's been in trouble.
