Heart Darkness
Chapter 148 Angel of Revenge ....

A few days after Reinha went to the Monastery. The days grew bleak in the Durante House. Elgio Durante and Abner Luiz spoke after the virtual meeting with staff ended. The two were meeting from the office space on the second floor while Marya was in the kitchen, cooking something. Elgio sighed heavily. They have a lot of problems that need to be solved. Cases of cyanide that is completely unsolved, affect production, finally quality control is tightened because the news of cyanide in the company spread to the ears of consumers.

Although the demands are withdrawn, it does not mean the case is closed, but the issues out there are already scattered and very, very deadly. Can't wait to go out on their own. Maribella has been the subject of gossip, the accused, went to prison and even was persecuted in prison, ended up critically in the hospital. The woman was still lying on the bed. The trauma to his body slowly disappears but the post-occurrence psychic trauma, both Abner and Elgio, is restless lest it imprint in memory.

"Well Abner Luiz. Let's chill the mind, we're biting something very bitter right now but you're forbidden to spit, just have to swallow. Calm down and the point is don't panic!" elgio quoted Abner Luiz as saying when they were in trouble.

"Honestly Elgio, my brain nerves are shorting! Can you help me solve the problem?" Abner Luiz noticed Elgio, folding both his arms. Wanted to know high on what the boy could do.

"Yes, I'll try, Abner Luiz. We're going to start with a light thing for warming up" Elgio said as if they were going to be sparing futsal. "By the way, Abner, lately I've had a weird shadow. Could it be that you are someone who is very close to me?" elgio asked to look at Abner Luiz as if looking for something identical to him. Or the man is looking like Abner to himself. Their height is almost the same, Abner's face is the face of the male calm by 30 years, mature and mature, yes yes, almost overripe because of failing to make love many times. Although it looks humorous, plegmatic but it turns out that Abner is also grumpy like him, even more divided Abner than him. Elgio tilted his head to the left and then to the right, giving up. Abner Luiz and himself had no resemblance of physical characteristics. Abner has heterosexual good looks in general men, a mixture of cool and masculine except for a shady look that can sink women into his charm. Abner is the ideal type of emotionally mature woman.

Abner squinted at Elgio. "Buck! Are you seriously gonna joke around now? Of course we are very close, we have slept one bed even often. I used to hug you like a father when you couldn't sleep. I don't even enjoy wet dreams because I'm busy keeping watch at your side."

"Come on, man, that's not what I meant! Are you sure we don't have blood ties?" ask Elgio again. Now he's thinking seriously about Abner Luiz. How could his father trust him and his brothers and their possessions to Abner Luiz? Is Abner really just a replacement driver?

"I lived in an orphanage and was financed by a charitable foundation until I was taken from the orphanage to Durante Land by Ebben Amarante. But if you want a fake document on blood ties, I'll make it. Enter me as your stepbrother. Mr. Leon Durante is very handsome, I'm sure he has more than one wife. And I am the son of another Lord Durante's wife. Give me some of your treasure!" Abner Luiz observes Elgio Durante, breathing strong air. Elgio seems to want him as a family. "I was left in an orphanage as an infant but was never allowed to be adopted. So, stop thinking that no-no! I'm just a replacement driver, Elgio Durante! Let's take care of the family tree later, when our problems are solved."

"Do you know my mother?"

"No. I don't know your mother but if you watch television and pay attention to a senior actress named Sylvia Chaterine, you'll see that you may be her son. I've heard that your father was involved in a love location with one of his co-stars on a project and Sylvia was the woman most often involved with Mr. Leon. Do you need your mom now? You're not satisfied with me?" ask Abner.

"Aish, I mean maybe you're my uncle or something."

"You and I are only 6 years away" Abner said. All right, they need a discussion full of hallucinations as brain entertainment is complicated. "Your uncle? Doesn't that mean I'm old? Do I look old and tired? I can even beat you in the boxing ring, you never win from me! I can crush your kidney once if you fuck with me!"

"You and Maribella, perfect! Happy my baby will have grandparents like you and Maribella!"

Abner Luiz is a bit of a dizzy himself.

"Grandfather, grandma?! Me and Maribella are 6 years away from you." Recalling Maribella, Abner Luiz's face instantly shrank. He seems to want to run away and go with Maribella. He'll take Maribella on a picnic on the edge of a forest full of dandelions. "The heat of your brain is five minutes long. Let's focus on the problem, Elgio Durante!"

"Yes you're right," Elgio breaks up hoping Abner is really his family. Why not just ask Maribella? Her nanny was born and raised in Durante Land. Maribella must know something. Elgio immediately put away all the fancied thoughts on his brain wall. "All right, my best friend, Abner Luiz. Let's focus. Learn the root of the problem and solve it one by one. First, about Lucky Luciano because I promised Reinha. Abner, no matter what happens we'll go to the East Coast as private investors and find Lucky Luciano before Reinha changes her mind and goes there looking for her husband! Oh my God, I'm going crazy! Let's go on a weekend visit to the Monastery, I suspect something. You know my sister is very smart. I'm not sure he went to the Monastery for asceticism and meditation. I'm sure he's planning something!"

"No Elgio, the Abbess has guaranteed his existence, sending Reinha's activities daily. This morning I asked for a portrait of Reinha Durante and the Chief Sister to say that Reinha is in the Tabernacle (the holiest place in the monastery) doing devotion."

"All right! Use this time to find Lucky Luciano. I'm afraid Enya changed her mind and quietly went to the East Coast. If we become investors, we can go to the East Coast to start surveying the location."

"Elgio, it's not that easy. You know a lot of private parties are vying for the Public Private Partnership to the East Coast. The selection of companies that will invest is very tight. Although it looks tempting, I don't suggest we deal with the East Coast. Be patient, Carlos is trying. He's our only hope. Miss Claire always gives me the latest developments Francis Blanco."

"Do everything, Abner. Isn't this a good time to use the money we've been piling up for years?"

"I'll arrange a meeting with the Mayor. Get close to him and see the odds!"

"alright. Check also, could there be an event that the mayor is involved in. I can go there. You know I have to meet Diomanta's dinner invitation to accompany Aruhi and Arumi at their great-grandfather's farm."

"With Mr Hellton Pascalito?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"I wonder what he did to Irish?"

"Why do you want to know?"

"Maybe I can apply it to Luna. Irish stop chasing you, stop dragging you to court! Even Irish suddenly refused to testify, giving up engaging with the evidence she had collected over the years. Isn't that weird? The woman even reportedly stopped being a broadcaster."

Elgio nodded in agreement. "Abner .., Hellton Pascalito looks like a man who can silence people with a single argument and he very easily pulls the trigger. I'm not sure but I think he kept Irish on the farm."

"And you're gonna have dinner there?"

"Come on," answered Elgio, twitching his shoulders. "Did you find anything new in the Maribella case?" ask Elgio to change the conversation. He doesn't like to talk about Irish especially if Marya eavesdropped.

"I can't think about it, Elgio!" Abner Luiz shook his head. "We can't even accuse Luna."

Elgio looked at his guardian concerned. Things are so fucked up. Abner Luiz is a thinker, a scholar, a scientist, but it looks like Maribella's condition took Abner Luiz down. The man didn't leave the hospital with Maribella.

"All right, don't think! How about it, Abner. Let's pretend to ignore the case that happened about Maribella, let's make a gap until the perpetrator thinks we are caught off guard and make a mistake. Don't touch Luna for a while and let's be patient. We'll find something!"

Elgio and Abner take part in the CCTV check. Luna came out of Abner's office holding a bag containing a lunch box that day, went to his cabinet to put the file that would not have been given to Abner. They even studied the footage repeatedly with a lawyer and a detective but CCTV showed that Luna had left there and the lunchbox was not open at all. He just put the file and got in the elevator. There were several people in the elevator and Luna was at the front facing directly to the surveillance cameras. The girl was just chatting while holding the bag containing her lunch box tightly. He went to the cafeteria to join the others, opened the food box and ate right away. While CCTV when Maribella came with a food bag was not indicated at all he put poison but in the office room Abner no surveillance cameras as in the room Elgio. Maribella could have been accused of putting poison in there before giving it to Luna.

"It's very difficult because if this case continues to be investigated, Maribella will be a suspect."

"There must have been a mistake" thought Elgio, closing his eyes. "Be careful, Abner!"

"Yes, we can't act bar-bar because Maribella's still not safe."

"Plan A, let's act but stay alert. We'll catch something and act straight away!"

"How's Maribella doing?"

"Not good. I'm not a good lover at all. The prison warden who beat him up suddenly disappeared! Tango is hunting. The warden seemed to be hidden by Luna's lawyer."

"Luna lawyer ... investigate the man!"

"Yes, I'm doing. The guy's a dirty lawyer, use every means to win the case. He received a heavy payment from the Luna family."

"alright. Do not take action. Let Maribella rest. I want to visit."

Abner shook his head hard. "No! Don't let Miss Marya see Maribella's condition, your wife can get sick. Maribella bruises everywhere. God, you know what it's like for me to go to jail and beat up his cellmates."

"Darguably, you're nagging here!"

"I'm waiting for Elgio. Maribella's ignorant cellmates will be released in a few days. I'm waiting to do something to them! Maybe I'll just shoot them in the hand."

"All right, let's do that later!"

The two are busy making plans unaware of Marya's presence.

"What's wrong with Maribella? Why is Maribella bruised everywhere? What's with Maribella's condition?" marya asked at the door with a tray of tea and snacks in her hand. He narrowed his suspicions to Abner and then to Elgio. Her face quickly flushed when she found her husband suddenly nervous and confused.

Marya misses her nanny. He made strawberry cupcakes while chatting lightly with Natalea about the greatness of Maribella. Thinking of following Maribella to Mora. If Maribella refuses her visit, Marya thinks about staying at Diomanta Pavilion while with Mom and Arumi. Without Reinha and Maribella, the house is quiet. Augusto disappeared for a few days and since the summer holidays began, Marya felt very lonely during the day even though Elgio was working from home. That's because Marya didn't dare to bother Elgio. Her husband has been very busy since the Maribella and Luna cases and Mr. Lucky Luciano disappeared until Reinha decided to calm down to the Monastery.

But now, he accidentally heard something happen to his nanny.

"Elgio Durante, what happened to Maribella? Is that why Augusto's not here? Maribella's not in Mora, is she?"

"Marya .. it ...."

"You promised me to tell you whatever that was. What's wrong with Maribella, Elgio?" Marya put the tray down and stood up agitatedly.

"Marya ...."

"Elgio, I'm asking you. Is Aunt Mai ... ?" Marya started out in no direction. "Mr Abner?"

Seeing that Abner and Elgio were just staring, Marya became very angry. But he tried to control himself. Elgio repeatedly hid something from her. Oh my God, Maribella is a mother to him, how can they hide Maribella's condition from her.

"Marya ...."

"I'm going back to the kitchen" said Marya staring at Elgio without a blink and then turned away in haste.

"God ... "maki Elgio hastily got up. "I don't think we can cover up anymore. I'll see it."

Abner breathed heavily and nodded. Elgio hurried after Marya, went to the kitchen and could not find Marya there. Slightly swearing to realize that Marya did not go to the kitchen. He returned to the inner room and was surprised as Marya prepared very neatly. Standard cutting canvas pants look chic and comfy with butterfly ribbon belt combined sweater high neck knit creamy color. A coat was draped in her hand and her lover hurriedly got down from there while calling.

"No Elgio, thanks. I see you have a lot of problems. I'll go alone!"

"Where?" Elgio follows his wife who doesn't look angry but instead is very scary to talk to.

"Finding Maribella."

"Marya .. "call Elgio hold Marya's hand tightly. "Let's go together."

"I've called a taxi, Elgio. If Maribella's sick, you just have to tell me. I'll be with him. Oh, my God, Elgio. Aunt Mai took care of me since I was a child until you came a few months ago. How can ...."

"I think about your condition, Marya. "

"Aunt Mai needs entertainment and needs me or Reinha by her side. Did you hide her condition from me? Unhand me! I think we're just committed to being open and honest, but this is where Elgio Durante is."

"Darling, try to understand, I can't tell you because I'm afraid you might get shaken!"

All the anxious man could do was come over to Marya and hug her.

"Elgio is right, Marya" said Abner Luiz down the stairs. "Don't get me wrong and don't get mad at Elgio! Maribella doesn't want you or Reinha to know how she is. Mai even hid from me."

"Let me go see Aunt Mai!" sue Marya.

They ended up driving to the hospital in silence. Marya seemed to have no intention of having a conversation in the car because the heart rooms turned dark. Just like an empty space. Feeling sad in the recesses imagine Maribella harboring her own pain and suffering, Maribella, the Fairy Caregiver she loves so much.

They reached the hospital quickly, greeted by Augusto who immediately bowed as they came.

"Aunt Mai?!"

Marya approached Maribella, who was lying in bed, dashed in the clutches of a dream. Or her Nanny Elf just slept without dreaming. "What happened to you?" Marya kelu on the side of the bed, her tears quickly shed, her clear cheeks.

Marya was standing not far from Maribella, just stunned for a long time, suddenly blank. Her caregivers look tough and fragile at the same time. Marya eavesdropped on Elgio and Mr. Abner Luiz, not meaning so, but she delivered a snack at the right time to hear a conversation that deeply hurt her heart. It was the same when he saw his father being beaten. The wicked may hurt his loving Maribella. Something inside her was really upset and angry, igniting Marya until she was in so much pain. The other side of him was turbulent.

"Marya?!" greet Maribella slowly when she sees the girl, she looks at her with deep sadness just as Aruhi looks when having nightmares. Marya's facial expression endured the pain and the girl appeared to suffer greatly. Marya's reaction to Elgio soon came to a realization, as she feared, Marya was deeply shaken.

"Who did this to you, Aunt Mai?! Why are you like this, Maribella William? I thought you thought I was like your son?" marya asked almost like a whisper. He wiped the tears slowly. The top of his nose is flushed. He eventually approached sitting on the lip of the bed and stroked Maribella's face slowly with love and affection.

"I'm fine, honey! Don't worry about me, hmmm?!"

"Who did this to you, Aunt Mai?" marya asked quietly, without blinking with an unhappy look.

"I fell in the bathroom, so my head hit a little bit and my arm was bandaged because I was sleeping on a hard bed. I'll be right away."

"All right! Can I stay with you here to take care of you?"

"No, Meu Amor! You are pregnant. Go home! You can visit anytime!"

Marya kisses Maribella's forehead, kisses the nanny's fingers.

"I love you so much! I'll be here tomorrow morning, Aunt Mai."

Marya stood away from there, walking rigidly like a robot until Elgio and Abner exchanged glances.

"Maribella, we'll visit. See you!"

Elgio hurriedly followed Marya. It's not usual to see Marya with that worrisome expression.

"Elgio?!" Marya turned to look at her husband straight.

"Darling, are you okay?"

Marya nodded, "Can we stay at Mom's house for a few days? Maribella's in the hospital, Reinha's in the Monastery, I'm so lonely. I want to be with Mom and Arumi!"

Elgio breathed a stifled breath, came to Marya and hugged her wife tightly.

"Alright, Honey. I think it's better. You know, there's a lot of problems to be solved. I'll go to work and come back to hug you tonight. How's it?"

"Yes," said Marya Short impatiently want to get to her mother's house soon. Why is the world always unfair to gentle people like her and Maribella? Why did they hurt Maribella? Marya looked at the street straight in front of him. It would be easier to deal with people like Irish Bella than criminals who use physical strength.

Marya kept daydreaming all the way, while Elgio, who had a lot of problems in his brain, did not want to bother his wife.

"Marya, Maribella will be fine. Don't worry! I'll come to you after the meeting, let's travel for a while."

Marya nodded. "All right, honey!"

When Elgio decided to work and meet, Marya waved from the top of the terrace immediately greeted Archilles. His sister's bodyguard was still the same, not daring to look at him. Just keep bowing if you meet him.

"Is Mom sleeping?"

"No, Mistress. Mr. Hellton Pascalito is coming for a visit."

House detainees still have the right to receive visits from relatives even if they are closely monitored. In fact, there are no clear rules or regulations about visitors for sick house arrest, about who can visit or how long. This is because you are very cooperative during the examination. Even Aunty Sunny will be released soon. Marya is sure Uncle Hellton takes care of her and can't wait to meet her mother's cousin.

"Archilles, can we talk?" marya asked, not believing at some time in her life, she used her power through the power she had.

"Yes, Madam!"

"I have a request of you. Can you do it without my husband's knowledge? It's very secret" he said again in a low tone of voice. "I need your help."

Archilles Lucca had not yet responded, as if weighing, looking hesitant.

"Did Lady Marya have me spy on Mr Elgio Durante? I won't be able to do that?"

Marya shook her head, "No, Archilles. Not that and never will!"

"Then what's the madam?"

"You know that my nanny, Maribella William, was in prison some time ago for toxic slander. He is currently dying in the hospital after being released from prison. I'm sure what my nanny is going through is organized brutality. I know you're very close to that dark world. Get them for me! Whoever it is either the prison warden or the cellmates who tortured him."

The series of events that happened to Maribella was carried out in an organized manner. Marya is sure to find something, including if it's Luna Hugo. He just needs to step on his tail to hold his head.

"Mrs ... You may be angry, Mr. Elgio must be ...."

"No, please don't argue. Just do it carefully, Archilles!"

"Okay, Madam! But can you tell me what you want to do to them?"

Marya stared at the Archilles so sharply that the bodyguard dared not look at her. Instantly softens when he realizes he is scaring the Archilles by wrath at the sight of Maribella dying.

"I thought!"
