Husband And Sister-in-law
Chapter 60

"You're not having breakfast, son?" Tanya Ambar saw her son immediately farewell without sitting down to breakfast.

"I'm not hungry." Bryan replied indifferently as he continued to step up.

"Would you bring me some supplies?" Bargain Ambar.

"No."

"At least you should fill your stomach a little." Arowana's stern remarks made Bryan choose according even though he was actually not tasteful.

"Oh yes, the Aura family asked how you are? They invited us to dinner." Ambar said to whom but his eyes looked at Bryan.

Ting

The sound of a flatware placed on the plate by Bryan made the two old men stare at Bryan.

"I'm done." Pamit Bryan though actually the rice is not reduced at all.

Ambar was silent sighing long. Arowana looked at her son's back wistfully.

"Had he not forgotten?" Ambar looked at her husband.

"Maybe?" Answer Arowana briefly continue his meal.

"But we can't turn down their dinner invitations." Say Ambar again.

"I'll talk to him." Ambar nodded his head.

"Will Rey be okay with the wedding? I don't know why if they're just pretending. I'm afraid he's being used by that woman." Say Ambar carefully.

"Karina wasn't that kind of woman even though she was from an orphanage. Rey knows what's good and bad for her." Answer Arowana.

"But it was that easy that she received Rey's proposal after breaking up from Bryan. What if he just made use of Rey's wealth after he didn't get anything by getting close to Bryan?"

"Huffs... Let's see it later."

"You should warn the woman. If only my relationship with Rey had been good, I would have approached that woman again and wished her to withdraw from Rey."

"You can't do that just because you don't like Karina. Rey is different from Bryan, he'll only become more if you ban him. You know what Rey looks like."

"Therefore, you're the one who should talk to Rey, if you can't talk to that woman. Or we'll be late when all Rey's possessions are taken away."

"I'll go first." Arowana chose pamphit rather than arguing with his wife who would not win it.

"Where are you going?"

"Meet Bryan for dinner."

"Be careful!" Ambar smiled with a grin as he continued his breakfast.

"Young master."

"Hm." Bryan did not pay attention to Gio, he looked indifferent.

"Meeting in half an hour."

"Hm." As it continued Bryan's reply as Gio said something made Gio sigh long.

Cclek

"The big man." Sapa Gio was polite while bowing his head.

"Bryan's there?"

Gio immediately opened the door of Bryan's room wide to let Arowana go inside. Arowana stepped in and looked at her son who was silent in his chair, staring at the glass window beside his desk. He looked blankly at the window.

Arowana turned to look at Gio who just lowered his head not daring to say anything about his young master.

"Bryan!" Call Arowana which again only Deheman answered. Arowana turned back to look at Gio frowning in wonder.

"Since two days ago young master was like that." Gio finally answered.

"I'll talk to him."

"I'm sorry sir." Pamit Gio who immediately understood what Arowana said.

"You're gonna keep going like this?" Tanya Arowana sat in the front seat of Bryan's desk.

"Bryan!" Arowana cried even louder, his voice almost sounded like a shout.

"Eh.. Papi?" Bryan was surprised to see Arwana in his room. He glanced around, Gio was already not there. Arowana can only take a long breath.

"When are you going to be like this?"

"What does papi mean?" Bryan asked pretending to be stupid while signing the file for a meeting later.

"You think papi doesn't know? Papi knows everything, starts investigating about Karina, watches over Karina, has people follow her. Specially? Even papi knows it." Tell Arowana with a sharp look.

"Sorry Pi, I have a meeting." Bryan moved from his seat.

"When are you going to be like this? Even now she's already your sister-in-law." Arowana's statement made Bryan's body freeze in place even he intended to ignore Arowana's speech.

"Are you going to fight each other just because of a woman? Even she couldn't bear to wait for you, choosing to marry your sister who was more everything than you." Further Arowana again made both fingers Bryan clenched to feel humbled.

"Are you sure he really loves you? Are you sure his love for you is sincere and does not look at your treasure? In fact she can't wait for you and chooses to marry another man who unfortunately is your own brother." Arowana continued her words without thinking about Bryan feeling crumpled up.

"Enough Pi. If it's necessary I'll take it." Firmly Bryan while turning his body looked at Arowana.

"And you're gonna lose." Bryan remained silent.

"Rey has everything, money, wealth, power. And you, what do you have? Why don't you forget about it? And show her that you're okay even if she's not by your side. Why do you just want to demean you just because a woman so easily forgets your love and accepts another man as her husband." Arowana's long speech made Bryan's body again freeze to hear a statement that struck his deepest heart.

Did ya? Is it because I'm poor that he's willing to break up?

Is he really looking for treasure? Power?

Inner Bryan was raging staring blankly with his mind wandering about somewhere.

Arowana let out a long sigh of guilt for vilifying Karina for not wanting bloodshed between her two sons even though she was not a sibling. Arowana just wants Bryan to realize that Karina is not his soul mate and stop hoping that someday they will unite. And Arowana knows very well that Rey loves Karina very much even though Karina does not have that taste.

Even though he knew their treatment that night was just a charade that the two had arranged. But Arowana knew that the look in her son's eyes had fallen deep into Karina's heart.
