Don Gabriel Emerson lantern
Eps 69 - Attack Again
Gabriel tells Firda that tonight they're in the shrimp to a party, but Gabriel says they won't leave because Firda is sad.
"What party is it?" ask Firda to her husband.
"Funds are raised." replied Gabriel. Firda thought about it for a moment, it was bad that Gabriel had not come just because Firda was grieving over the death of his pet, which was not good, what else invited Gabriel was his business partner and also in the framework of fundraising.
"I'm fine, we can come" Firda said later.
"You sure?" gabriel asked to be sure because he saw Firda who still looked sad, Firda nodded while smiling faintly.
.........
At the party, when Gabriel and Firda came, people were already gathered there. The host also welcomed Gabriel and his petite wife and immediately invited Gabriel to join the other invited guests.
And at that very moment, Gabriel instantly fell silent as he faced off against a woman who was very meaningful in his past. Even the woman was also shocked when she saw Gabriel and was even more surprised when she saw the woman Gabriel was holding.
"Gabriel.." greet the woman gracefully and also she displays her charming smile.
"Angeline..." Gabriel also greeted her with no less graceful.
Angeline glanced at Firda with a cold gaze while Firda actually returned her with a warm smile.
"So the news is true, you have a wife?" ask Angeline who is more into the form of an expression of disbelief and not accept.
"Yes" replied Gabriel briefly "Firda, meet her Angeline, she..."
"The old friend Gabriel.." between Angeline quickly, Firda and Angeline shake hands and immediately Firda's memory revolves around the incident in the mall a few days ago.
"I've seen you, don't you have a son?" ask Firda who makes Gabriel surprised and Angeline also looks confused.
"Where do you know, Mrs Emerson?" ask Angeline by pressing the nickname that was pinned on her 4 years ago.
"that time we met in the toilet, in the mall" said Firda.
"I don't remember it" Angeline replied but her eyes still glanced at Gabriel.
"Yes, we're not really sorry. I remember it so much because I saw your son who was very handsome" praised Firda sincerely who made Angeline smile, appreciating Firda's praise.
Gabriel himself was astonished to find that his second wife had met his ex-wife and also his son. Firda looked at Gabriel and said
"His son is very handsome, and when he smiles he is very similar to you" said Firda who makes Gabriel now smile happily. While Angeline was also smiling yet she displayed a slanted smile.
"So, my son looks like your husband, yes" said Angeline ambiguously still with her slanted smile.
"I think yes" Firda replied honestly.
"Whoever is lucky, your husband or my son" Angeline said enigmaticly to Firda. Firda glanced at Gabriel then he looked at Angeline. Firda could sense that there was some awkwardness between them. Even Firda catches wet Angeline who occasionally steals a glance at her husband.
"Master and Lady Emerson." said a middle-aged woman, she shook Gabriel's hands and took turns. The woman was the wife of the host "I'm glad you guys came" she said, making Firda and Gabriel smile.
"Mrs Emerson, you look very young. But even if I want you to join us, we want to talk about something about humanitarian investment. Maybe you're interested" Firda looked at Gabriel, asking for his approval and Gabriel nodded his head.
"Go away, I will follow." said Gabriel and Firda went with the woman.
Now left Gabriel and Angeline, Angeline seemed to want to cry, because after a long time finally he could talk and face Gabriel directly.
"Where he is or not, our relationship must be ended after 4 years depending on unclear, Angeline" said Gabriel, he did not want to hurt the woman who had filled his heart. Hearing Gabriel's reply, Angeline only smiled faintly and she seemed to take a deep breath in the air.
"Then, you hid our marital status. Only my family knows and some of my close relatives, but it's different now." said Angeline again.
"I'm sorry, I wasn't ready to take you public, I just..."
"Fear I'm threatened?" Angeline interrupted quickly and Gabriel nodded confirming "Then what about her? Does he know your dark side? Aren't you afraid he's threatened?" angeline asked as she glanced at Firda who was currently chatting with some women who could be said to be noble women.
Gabriel also notices Firda who looks very different, usually Firda ceplos, tidakilan and childish. But Gabriel saw just the opposite now, Firda looked graceful, her smile graceful, her way of drinking was also graceful.
"I'm scared, of course. But I want to live a normal life." said Gabriel.
"Then why don't you try it with me?" angeline asked half emotionally.
"I tried it, Angeline. But you can't accept me, and of course I can't force you"
"Then do you think he can?"
"Where's my son?" Angeline snickered as Gabriel instead shifted the subject.
"At home" she answered coldly.
"Someday, I'll tell Firda about you and Michael"
"I'm not interested..." Angeline said very coldly "By the way, she looks very different, like a pious girl. Where did you get her?"
Angeline's question made Gabriel smile faintly, as he himself realized how different Firda was from himself.
"A destiny brought us together" Gabriel replied casually "I go first, nice to meet you. Give my warm regards to my son" Gabriel said sincerely but Angeline was reluctant to respond.
Gabriel approaches Firda and they enjoy the party until it is over, and Gabriel also donates funds to hospitals and orphanages. Angeline also represents her company.
.........
After the party was over, Firda and Gabriel immediately rushed home. Not to forget Gio and a few bodyguards were closely escorting them.
In the car, Firda glanced at Gabriel with a very different glance.
"What's wrong?" ask Gabriel at last.
"Angeline is your ex?" ask Firda who is more of an accusation. Gabriel was silent for a moment, knowing that Gabriel could not always hide this fact.
Gabriel knew Firda had to know everything, but Gabriel wasn't really ready. Gabriel was afraid that Firda could not accept him.
"Honestly, I won't be angry. Than I'm curious to dream later" insisted Firda.
"Actually he..."
