CHAPTER 52 ”The Sixth of Matahari”


Kevin had just parked his vehicle in the parking lot of the Hotel and Galaxy Mall owned by Adhipramana Group, after visiting Ibu Siska from the hospital.


Kevin's phone rings. "Where?" ask the man across the street, when his call is answered by Kevin.


"In the parking lot"


"I'm waiting in your room"


Kevin clenched his hands, holding back the anger. "Moreover what the old man wants to ask" Kevin murmured as he walked away from his vehicle.


"Is there anything really important?" kevin asked, because he knew so well, it must have been so important that his papa had to visit him at the office.


"You must have known the answer" replied Mr. Anthony, papa Kevin.


"Papa wants you to approach the Harley family's second daughter" Anthony said.


"Pa" calls Kevin a form of rejection from him, on the idea of a man who only thinks about how his wealth increases.


Anthony Adhipramana the younger brother of Mr. Robert, was very different from his older brother, who built the business with his own sweat. For some reason, Kevin regretted being born the son of this man. This man in front of him hated Ayunda so much, without wanting to explain why. They even want to kill Ayunda.


Yes, the accident that Ayunda experienced one year ago was the work of his papa man. Cruel indeed, very different from his brother who is unpretentious and friendly. Unbeknownst to his father, Kevin investigates everything.


It's not just about Ayunda's accident that he knows about, but his other papa's crimes, which he can't believe. His father had helped Uncle Ayunda to seize the company owned by Mr. Richad who bequeathed to Ayunda.


Mr. Anthony's hatred of Ayunda was an outlet of his hatred for Richad. When the Adhipramana Group was not this big, Mr. Robert asked Papa Richad for help to raise his company. They were young and unmarried at the time. Papa Ayunda is more trusted by Mr. Robert than Mr. Anthony, his own biological brother.


Mr. Anthony's hatred for Papa Richad is not only in rival trust Mr. Robert, but also competition in getting a woman named Mira. Yes, Mr. Anthony fell in love with the figure of Mira, who turned out to make his choice to Papa Richad.


Mr. Anthony eventually married his mother Kevin, not out of love, but out of want of possessions and standing. Kevin's mother was born into a family of people, owned several companies, one of which is now held by Mr. Anthony.


"Papa does not want no rejection Kev" snapped Mr. Anthony disperse daydream Kevin.


"How do you know about the Harley family's second daughter? They don't look like rich daughters. The Harley family also never received matchmaking and proposals from their business partners. The family just wants the happiness of their son and daughter" Kevin revealed the truth.


"You know, therefore Papa will help you" replied Mr. Anthony.


Kevin was silent, his father wanted the daughter of a rich family, but this is the Harley family, the owner of a large company, not only domestically and asia, they even thrive in Europe, he said, especially the Netherlands which is the home country of Mr. Harley.


"You can find Harley's second daughter from her brother or from Harley's first daughter" said Mr Anthony, who returned to reenact Kevin's daydreams.


"I work Pa" replied Kevin.


Mr. Anthony stopped, pondering his intention to open the door. His hand was still on the door handle, he turned half body. "Prepare if Papa finds Harley's second daughter"


"It's not so bad that it's the Harley Family's daughter" Kevin muttered after his papa went missing behind the door.


Kevin opened his laptop, he typed in the name of Harley's first daughter. Quite a lot of news about the beautiful woman named Nayla, after the family announced her as the first daughter of the Harley Family.


"A great family" said Kevin, who knows enough about this family. They were introduced as descendants of Harley when they were about to get married, this family was also difficult to convert a new Ceo, because of all their descendants more carry out their own efforts from below, without the great name Harley.


"Unique" said Kevin again, he began to be curious about this family, why their descendants actually lepar each other to become leaders in the company, he said, while other families will hurt each other to become ceo in their family companies. Like uncle Ayunda. Think Kevin.


Kevin wants to type in the name of the older sibling of Harley's second daughter. "What's his name?" Kevin tried to remember. "Zein, yeah.. Zein" said.


There was a lot of news about Zein, but still he couldn't find any pictures of their family. "How do you know his face?" thought Kevin.


"Hey.why am I tempted by Papa's wishes" Kevin said as he realized what he had just done.


"No-no. I can't betray Ayunda" Kevin's inner self.


"Yund? Is there still a chance?" Keven exhaled his breath violently.


His memory returned when he first met Ayunda, the girl was very innocent, in a white ash uniform, he came with his friends to participate in a robotic championship competition held at Kevin's campus, where he was the chairman of his role model. When he saw Ayunda, Kevin was immediately blown away by the beautiful, pure white face without decoration.


"Beautiful" he muttered, making the Goddess who was beside him angry with jealousy. "What the hell Kev, still likes the same smelly child kencur. Remember the many adult girls in this campus who queue to make your girlfriend" upset Goddess who makes Kevin turn his eyes away from Ayunda to look at Goddess.


"Did I say it wrong?" asked Kevin while chuckling. "What's wrong with liking a smelly child? Fragrant again" cried Kevin, because the Goddess left him. Without Kevin realizing it, he again chuckled in memory of the incident.


The competition ran for three days, the Ayunda team that advanced until the final made Kevin happy. That way he can continue to look at the beautiful face of Ayunda. "Congratulations, get to the final" said Kevin, who deliberately came to Ayunda when the girl was resting at the cafe in front of the campus.


"Yes Brother. Thank you" Ayunda replied and the theme simultaneously.


"Kevin" Kevin reached out his hand, which was immediately greeted by Ayunda's friend, making Ayunda inevitably also receive the uran Ayunda's hand.


The competition is over, it does not mean that Kevin just let go of Ayunda. Without Ayunda knowing, Kevin always memorakan activities that Ayunda, and he will appear in front of Ayunda as if they accidentally met, and he will appear before Ayunda, until finally they got closer and Ayunda finally opened her heart to Kevin.


Kevin opens a folder where he keeps all his memories with Ayunda. The memories again revolved in his memory, when he saw one by one the photos and videos stored there. Four years together is not a little time to erase memories, they are very happy, there are only laughter and jokes that fill their days, he said, but all seemed to be unable to replace the one mistake he made. In an instant his happiness was lost.
