He's my Fruit of the Heart
Chapter 8. An Offer.

Vania was speechless with a sharp look upon hearing the man's words, while Arsen had already turned around and was about to go towards the back.

However, Arsen did not step foot when he felt that Vania was just silent and did not follow what she said.

"Don't you hear what I'm saying?" asked Arsen sharply while glancing towards the back.

Vania sighed harshly and tried to suppress her emotions. "I'm sorry if I was rude to you, so please forget what I did." He chose to give up because he did not want to make Sonya and the two women's parents disappointed.

Arsen's gaze sharpened even more when he heard Vania's words. However, cynical smirks appeared in his lips because he felt really interested in the woman.

"I've never forgotten the words of people like you, so I don't accept your apologies" Arsen said with emphasis.

Vania was completely inexhaustible with the man before her at the moment. Actually what the hell, does Arsen want from him? Why keep making noise and stirring emotions?

"I don't know what you really want, but I'm holding myself back from appreciating Sonya and your parents" Vania replied in no less sharp fashion.

The two of them then looked at each other for a few seconds, until finally their gazes came to a halt upon hearing Sonya's call.

"Vania, are you there?" sonya yelled strangely as Vania had not yet returned from the bathroom.

"Y-yeah, Sonya. A minute!" reply Vania. He immediately turned around because he did not want Sonya to see him along with Arsen.

"Later tonight I'll wait in the room, if you don't come, then I'll make sure that you won't get your son again" Arsen said, making Vania's steps again stopped. The woman glanced at him sharply, clearly grim with anger on Vania's face.

Arsen then continued his steps to go to the backyard regardless of Vania's anger, while Vania herself passed away to meet Sonya and the others.

Moments later, Vania and the others disperse from the room because the night is getting late and it's time to rest in each other's rooms.

"Rest, Vania. Don't think about anything for tonight, you have to think about your health too" Sonya said as she stood in front of the room occupied by Vania, the room was not far from his own room.

"Of course, Sonya. You also take a break, you have to work tomorrow, right?" reply Vania while rubbing Sonya's shoulder.

Sonya nodded and went to her room, as well as Vania who immediately entered the room.

Vania then laid her body on the bed while staring at the ceiling of the room. His mind returned to Varo who made tears come back. However, she quickly wiped those tears as she did not want to cry anymore.

"Good night, honey. Good dream well," muttered Vania while closing her eyes while imagining the face of the son. The exact same handsome face as the face of her late husband, but Varo's eyes and smile were very similar to her. "Mama misses you so much, baby. Mama misses you so much." He hugged himself as if he were hugging his beloved son.

Lama Vania was in that position while thinking about what she had to do in order to take Varo out of Adijaya's hands. However, instantly both of his eyes opened as he recalled about Arsen's words just a moment ago.

"What the hell do you want that guy? Why does he keep ruining my life?" vania said with annoyance. He then punched out a snapping as if he was hitting Arsen in the face. "Is he like that because he doesn't like me living here?" He stopped his punch from feeling tired.

Well, Vania believes that Arsen does not like her existence so the man continues to look for her because of her. However, he could not rely on anyone other than Sonya.

"Dad, mom. Why is my life so miserable like this" Vania murmured sobbing. All this time she had never cried while mentioning her parents, but at this moment her life was completely ruined and she felt helpless.

Vania has never felt true happiness. Both before marriage, and after marriage to a man she said loved her very much.

In the past, Vania thought that someday her life would definitely improve if she persisted and continued to be patient. However, over time the situation increasingly uncontrollable to the point of threatening the life of his son, until finally he unconsciously killed the husband with his own two hands.

Never mind, there is no point in remembering what happened in the past. Now Vania must look forward and focus on Varo alone, focus on getting her son back and live together with Varo.

"All right, I'll go see Arsen. If necessary I will kneel down on her feet to let me stay here and ask her family for help to get Varo back," Vania murmured as she moved out of the room.

Vania then walked towards Arsen's room which was at the end of the second floor hallway. He knocked on the door of the room slowly so as not to make the others wake up, until not long after the door of the room opened as well.

"Get in and lock the door!" arsen ordered when he opened the door for Vania, he then walked towards the sofa and sat down haughtily.

Vania swallows her saliva out of fear, but she must persevere and follow the man's will. To hell with what Arsen did, even if he had to ally himself with the devil, he would still do it for Varo's sake.

"What do you want?" vania asked after locking the door and standing in front of Arsen.

Arsen was silent for a while while paying attention to Vania's appearance from top to bottom, of course making Vania feel uncomfortable.

"I know that you're planning to fight the Adijaya family, but do you think you can use my sister against them?" arsen said sharply, his voice sounding cold and piercing.

"I know I don't have the right to do this, but only Sonya will help me. I promise I will repay all your family's kindness, I only want my child, that's all," Vania replied in a voice trembling with pain and despair.

Arsen smiled faintly. "You think Sonya can fight them? You don't know who the Adijaya family is, it's easy for them to take someone's life. You think you can take something that already belongs to them, huh?"

Vania gritted her teeth with reddened eyes. "I didn't snatch, but I took my own son. He's my flesh and blood, I deserve to be with him, not them!" Denying it with sarcasm.

Arsen immediately laughed at Vania's words. Then he got up from the sofa and walked over to the woman.

"If you make a deal with me, then I'll help you get your son back."
