FORBIDDEN PASSION STEPCHILDREN
Chapter 54. Religious Court

The day is bright and the sun has rolled its light that illuminates the earth. The heat of the sun, perhaps the same as the heat of Arion's heart today.

Arion got out of the car still holding back his anger. From a distance he saw Karen sitting alone with her son Rico.

With a definite step he walked towards those two people whom he hated so much. Arion stood straight in front of the two.

Karen and Rico who were chatting became startled to realize the presence of the middle-aged man. Rico tried to smile sweetly. However unhappy Rico was with Arion's attitude and nature, the man remained the most meritorious in his life.

"Good day, Pi," Rico said as appropriate as possible.

Arion was still staring intently at the two especially Karen. Not answering Rico's words. Feeling noticed, Karen threw away her gaze.

"I don't know where your courage came from to sue me for divorce. You must know the contents of our covenant letter that you and your father signed. I'm not going to complicate this divorce, but just remember, YOU'RE GOING TO PAY ALL THIS MONEY."

Arion said all of that with great emphasis. Karen who heard that took a heavy breath. He had been convinced, it would not be easy to make Arion give up and be sincere.

Rico's hand moved back to rub his face, while taking a deep breath. Trying to calm down in every sigh and exhale.

He did not want a storm that would humiliate him as well as Arion. Rico is currently expanding his business. He wants to keep his good name.

"Alright, Pi. Please let me and Karen have a relationship. After all, the marriage of Papi and Karen all this time, can not be said by marriage. Better Papi let Karen go. Than to hurt yourself. With Papi's revenge, the problem will not be solved, it will even cause disease" said Rico.

Arion was angered by Rico's words. He looked at his son.

Rico took his breath back. A slanted smile responded to the middle-aged man's remark

"Pi, no matter how hateful and angry I am with Papi, I will not pray for Papi to be sick. I still remember your good service, Pi. Who raised me. I want to make peace and Papi wants everything. I also want to repay all Papi's kindness by keeping Papi in old age. So once again I beg you, please all. We open a new leaf" said Rico.

After Rico pondered all, he realized that without Papi Arion and Mama Mira, maybe he would not be able to be like this time.

Arion has not yet answered Rico's words, his name and Karen have been summoned to enter the mediation room.

"Come in. Don'tbeafraid. Tell me everything you have in mind. If you really want to separate, say the right reason, according to what you want."

Rico rubbed Karen's hair. Clasping his hands to give strength. Trudgingly, he walked into the mediation room.

Rico waited outside the room nervously. Afraid Karen will answer wrong because there is Arion.

An hour passed by so long. He waited anxiously. Walk back in the waiting room.

As Karen looked out, Rico immediately followed. Help the woman he loves walk.

"How ...?" ask Rico. He could not wait for the answer from his lover.
