Earth Without Dusk
77. Disappointment of Adrian

Adrian drove his car quickly after getting a call from his son-in-law's men. His feelings were not calm at this time when he was called upon suddenly to meet at his second wife's house. He did not understand, from where could Earth know about his second wife? Is it from Nesya? It was impossible for Nesya to unravel the disgrace of her family.

“Akh! It's-lan! Who would dare to tell the Earth about this?! What if Mr. Aergantara finds out about Sonya? Maybe the marriage of Bumi and Nesya was canceled unilaterally by them because they do not want their surnames tainted,” complained Adrian while continuing to drive his car to Sonya's house.

It did not take long Adrian finally got to the house and immediately went inside in a hurry. He did not even care about some cars parked in front of his second wife's house.

“Hallo, Sir. I've found Miss Dusk's car parked in a housing estate. But.. earlier I actually saw Miss Dusk carried into another car, Mr.”

“Other cars? My son was kidnapped you mean?!”

“It seems not, Sir. Because the one who brought Miss Dusk was Young Master Dirgantara.”

“Young Master of Aerospace? Which one do you mean?”

“Earth Master, Sir. Bumi Langit Aerospace.”

Andika would be very surprised to hear the information from the man. What is the relationship between Earth and Dusk until Earth has to carry it? What the hell is going on?

“Not only that, Sir. After Ms. Dusk was taken out by Mr. Earth from a house, shortly I saw Mr. Adrian coming and going inside that house.”

“Adrian? You didn't see wrong?”

“No, Sir. The one who just came was indeed Mr. Adrian.”

Andika was surprised again. He had no idea what was going on between them.

“Good. Then I'll call Earth soon to ask about my daughter.”

“Good, Mr.”

Andika sat on the sofa. He scratched his forehead which suddenly felt dizzy due to the information he had just received. There is absolutely no picture of what is going on.

“How, Honey? Dusk where?” liliana asked frantically when she saw her husband's expression like that.

“Calm down, Dusk is fine. He is on his way with Earth,” replied Andika.

“Earth? Why is he with Earth? Is Nesya also with them?” ask Liliana again.

Andika shook her head. “They are just two. We better wait till they get home.”

Liliana is also confused. He wondered what really happened to his daughter.

“Sonya.....Arkan....” cried Adrian when he entered the house.

He kept looking for Sonya and Arkan in every room until he found his wife standing next to Arkan and a man handcuffed.

“Sonya? Arakan? What's the matter?” adrian asked with glaring eyes.

Neither Sonya nor Arkan dared to speak. They just looked down with fear.

Adrian then saw there was also Jefri and some other members of Mr. Aergantara. Adrian who was ignited emotions saw his son and wife treated like that immediately approached Jefri and grabbed the collar of the man's shirt firmly.

“Mr sure they're Mr's family?” jefri asked casually without any emotion.

“Although she's my second wife, she's still my wife, wedge! They're my family!” Adrian gets more emotional when he sees Jefri who just casually responds to him.

“He doesn't deserve your mention as a wife, sir. Because he's been lying to you for a dozen years. And the child that you consider to be the Master's biological child, is not the flesh and blood of the Master. He is the man's flesh and blood, Sonya's lover,” Jefri replied as he turned to Alan. Jefri doesn't want to talk much. He just explained clearly what happened.

Adrian was surprised by Jefri's reply. His grip on Jefri's shirt loosened. He pulled his hand and turned to look at the three people who were standing looking down as if waiting to be executed.

“Sonya..” call Adrian slowly. “Tell me what he said was not true Sonya,” Adrian said softly while holding tightness in his chest.

Sonya who was asked could not answer. He kept on looking down and started crying.

Seeing Sonya not answering him, Adrian approached Sonya and raised his chin so they looked at each other.

“My answer, Sonya! Tell me what Jefri said is all wrong! Tell Sonya, tell me Arkan is my real son!” adrian said with a trembling voice. His heart was still open and waiting for the answer to what was coming from the mouth of his second wife.

“I'm sorry, Mr. Adrian,” said Sonya interrupted her sobs.

Deg.

Adrian's heart felt beaten so hard that it stifled his chest. His nose and eyes feel hot so that it passes clear fluid out of the corner of the eye. Sonya called him “ Tuan" alone was enough to answer everything. They are no longer a family. And what Jefri said just now means it's true.

“You lied to me?” adrian asked with a sense of disappointment that had spread in his heart.

“I'm sorry, Sir. I had to do it..”

Plaque!

A slap landed on Sonya's cheek.

“Stop! Don't hurt him!” alan shouted that did not accept Sonya slapped by Adrian.

Adrian looked towards Alan. He looked at the face and remembered that the man was a doctor who had checked Arkan several times if he was ill.

“Who are you really?” ask Adrian.

“I am Arkan's real father. Arkan is not your flesh.  Sonya was already pregnant before trapping you to sleep with her,” Alan replied without anything covered up.

“It all started from my fault. I gave Sonya the idea to set you up because I knew Sonya was accepted to work as a secretary at one of the Wijaya family companies. We used you to get your treasure. It was all my idea. So please, let me bear it all. Let Sonya be free to stay with Arkan,” pinta Alan on Adrian.

Adrian certainly felt very angry and upset because he had been deceived dozens of years. He looked at Alan's face with a look of anger. Without saying much Adrian threw a punch to Alan's face.

Bugh. Bugh. Bugh.  

Alan who was in handcuffed condition was unable to avoid especially against Adrian. Inevitably he just resigned to accept the overflow of anger Adrian until finally he fell on the floor with a bruised face and injured lips.

“Because of you my family became a mess! Because of your lies my family was destroyed erratically! And now you still dare to apologize to me? Just look what I did to you guys later! I'll make sure you rot in jail!”

Adrian looked very angry and disappointed. He felt foolish to have been deceived for years. He also felt very guilty to his family, especially his wife, Tari. Still vividly remembered in his head how sad face Dari as they quarreled because Adrian defended his second family. He's sorry! Very-very sorry! He should apologize to his family, especially to his wife.

Seriate...
