Grasping Longs
Part~155

"By the way who are the parents of this child bik, who knows I know him ?" ask King in curiosity.

"Sorry sir, I must not talk carelessly with strangers." said Bik Mina evaded.

"Alright, but I'm allowed to play with...." King paused when he did not remember Elkan's name.

"Call El, sir." said Bik Mina.

"Oh yeah I forgot, let's El want to play with Opa ?" king asked the little boy who was still in his trunk.

"Pa-pa." said Elkan.

"Opa, baby." said King anxiously.

"Why do you look so much like Edgar." muttered King, he suddenly became curious about his son Dena who his son recognized as his biological son.

Until now he still does not believe in the words of his son who he thought was just making it up to defend his wife.

After all, according to him Edgar was a good man, his son could not sleep with a woman without being responsible.

It seemed impossible that it happened, if it was true that maybe his son was the same age as El now.

King tried to dodge it, but his little heart secretly hoped that what Edgar said was true.

How nice he is to have another grandson, considering that his other grandson, the son of Crystal, is now grown.

"Do I need to investigate it myself? was it true that before being close to Sera, Edgar had been in contact with Dena for a long time? have I been wrong to accuse Dena of anything? I know Edgar isn't a stupid man who knows women. I better investigate it soon."

King seemed to be breathing heavily, then he reviewed his smile as Elkan looked at him seriously. It was as if the little boy was also thinking like him.

"Pa-pa." called out to him which instantly made King feel anxious.

While Dena, who was at a cafe, was busy with her phone, she was looking at pieces of cctv footage she had taken in Germany at the time.

Some days she was exhausted by her husband to make him not have time to check it, it seems he must immediately make a plan so that the video recording can be spread to the public perfectly.

But he put his phone in his bag as Edgar walked towards him.

"Why haven't you eaten yet ?" edgar asked when he saw the food in front of Dena was still not touched at all.

"I'm waiting for you." said Dena with a sweet smile.

"I'm sorry, I answered the phone too long" Edgar said.

"Is there a problem ?" asked Dena when she saw her husband's tired face.

"Hm, there is a little problem with the project in Bali." said Edgar.

"If you want to check there, it's okay" said Dena.

"So you let me go there ?" Edgar seemed to raise his eyebrows looking at his wife.

"Of course, honey, I'm not the type of wife who likes to curb her husband. So you don't worry." replied Dena reasoned.

Of course she has her own reasons, if her husband went to Bali then she can launch her revenge smoothly.

Edgar seemed to look closely at his wife with a view that was difficult to interpret.

"Dear." he said later.

"Hm, what's ?" sahut Dena while feeding his food into his mouth.

"You're okay, right ?" ask Edgar.

"Of course, why ?" sahut Dena looked closely at her husband.

"It's okay, let's eat again." Edgar seemed to be commenting on his thin smile, there was a lingering feeling in his heart but it didn't seem like the right time to say it.

"It looks like tomorrow I have to go to Bali, do you want to come? you can walk there with Elkan." bargained Edgar, how happy he could work with his wife and child because he would not be lonely.

"I'm sorry I can't, baby, it looks like Elkan is still jetlagged. You weren't there long ?" push Dena down gently.

"Thank you." said Dena with a smile.

The next day....

After her husband left for Bali, Dena immediately left her residence. He headed for a men's clothing boutique in a shopping mall near his home.

She saw her husband's clothes in the closet all old models, it looks like she will replace the contents of the man's closet with new clothes.

Maybe her husband will be happy after returning from Bali later, Dena thought.

Some time living with Edgar, Dena began to memorize the taste of the man. Starting from the model of clothing, perfume and even his favorite food.

Dena seemed excited to choose clothes until unconsciously someone was seen watching him with a smile he concluded.

"It turns out you are still the same, always enthusiastic when choosing clothes for special people" said Arhan who immediately made Dena surprised to look at him.

Arhan still remembers how Dena was always enthusiastic when taking care of everything she needed, so she missed those times. How stupid of him to have wasted that woman.

"You.." said Dena surprised.

"It's none of your business." he continued then with a ketus.

"But I doubt that you really love your husband, it seems that you are just making him a tool to avenge Sera." said Arhan.

"I said it's none of your business, you can turn it back anyway, right? it seems that you two are indeed a very suitable couple." said Dena in a mocking tone to make Arhan look furious, for him Sera is the fault of his past that he has buried deeply.

Dena immediately set her feet away from her ex-husband, but she immediately sighed violently when she saw her stepmother and mother-in-law walking towards him.

"So this is your behavior behind Edgar, secretly meeting with an ex-husband? actually, mama has sincerely married Edgar, but if it's like this until whenever Mama will not be willing to let Sera succumb to you." said Madam Sita with sobs, really dramaqueen thought Dena.

"It's okay Jeng, sooner or later my son will know which one really loves him or not." said Putri while looking at Dena unfriendly, as she looked at him, then her gaze turned to her daughter-in-law's grocery bag which contained some men's clothing stels.

Then he looked at Arhan who was immediately nodding politely by the man.

"As for Mama to say what, I don't care." said Dena while staring coldly at her stepmother, after which she immediately left the place.

Madam Sita wants to feel like taking her stepson, but she must maintain the attitude in front of the Princess. Because the hope is still very big to be able to marry Sera to Edgar someday.

"Excuse Dena's indecency, Jin. I felt like I had failed to be a mother to her" she said humbly.

"It's okay Jeng, hopefully one day Edgar realizes his mistake." said the Princess calmed down.

"Hopefully Jeng, Sera will surely wait for the day to come." said Madam Sita, after which she looked at Dena with a mocking look.

"Smile as much as you can now, because tomorrow I'll make sure you forget how to smile." murmured Dena inwardly.

After that Dena immediately paid for her groceries, then she rushed into her car.

"Den, wait." call Arhan while knocking on the windshield.

"What else ?" sulk Dena looked at Arhan.

"Be careful, it seems Mama Sita has no good intentions with you" Arhan reminded.

"It's none of your business." ketus Dena, after that he immediately drove his car.

Meanwhile, Edgar, who was meeting that afternoon, seemed to get some messages from his mother.

The princess was seen sending several photos of Dena and Arhan at a men's clothing boutique she met earlier this morning.

"Like this is the behavior of your chosen wife behind you, Mama is disappointed Nak." said the Princess in the message.

Edgar seemed to take a deep breath, then he whispered something to Juno who was standing next to his chair.

"Are you sure, sir ?" juno asked softly because in the room there were many meeting participants.

"Hm." said Edgar, he seemed to clench his hands.
