Murder In The Old Castle
240. Entrapment
After ignoring Niken, Renita drove the car towards the city. He wants to reduce his fatigue by tasting his favorite food.Yes, he sometimes releases stress by eating, he believes, that food is the best stress medicine. no wonder sometimes he has a little problem with weight. Though as a public figure, he was intended to appear attractive in front of the crowd. But this time he didn't care. He decided to eat well today.
His car drove at a moderate speed, while Niken's car trailed behind him. Renita's car turns into the parking lot of a small restaurant that provides a variety of dessert. Renita parked the car, while Niken just watched from across the street. The resto was a public place, so Niken didn't think there was any crime in it.
Renita ordered a glass of strawberry smoothie and a piece of her favorite Red Velvet cake. He likes sweet taste, and the taste of red velvet is one of his favorites. This resto was Renita's subscription for a long time. He likes to spend a long time at this restaurant with friends or alone.
He enjoyed his order happily, while looking at the atmosphere of the highway from the glass window. At first glance he saw Niken's car across the street, but he just smiled a little while shaking his head.he was lazy to deal with everything related to the police. He ignored Niken who was following him.
Tired of being alone, he opened his phone and contacted someone.
"My company is usually at the restaurant, there are important things I want to talk to you about. It matters!" he told someone he called on the phone.
Secretly, he thought also about the death threats received by the police. However, he did not think, how could there be someone who wanted his death. Wasn't he not someone like Daniel Prawira who had a lot of wealth? Or like Anita Wijaya who is on the rise? Even Renita feels lately its popularity is declining due to the presence of new artists in the entertainment world.
Thirty minutes later, another car came into the parking lot. Niken kept a watch from across the street vigilantly. From inside the car that just came in, came out a beautiful young lady wearing sunglasses.
"Laura Carmelita?" mummy Niken.
Yes, the new one is Laura Carmellita, a soap opera actress who is now starting to penetrate into the world of film. Her steps were so graceful, going into the resto, meeting Renita who was waiting for her. Renita smiled welcoming Laura's presence. He immediately invited the young woman to sit down.
"Thank you for coming here" Renita said.
"I don't have a filming schedule, so I can come here. Shouldn't you be filming? Why is it in this place?" ask Laura.
Renita shook her head, then smiled.
"Eitherway. This entertainment world is getting bored for me, because it really takes my energy and time. Besides, I almost lost my privacy. Everything I do is always seen by the public, sometimes I want to be a normal human being" Renita complained.
"You invited me here just to hear that?" ask Laura.
"Oh, sorry. That's not exactly what I'm talking to you about. There's something else" Renita said.
"So what?"
"It's about your relationship with Henry Tobing. Everyone has kissed your involvement in the rift between Henry and Rianti's household. So I thought, it's not a secret matter anymore. I'm also getting sick of being friends with Rianti. She was pretentious to forbid her husband to cheat even though he himself had done shameful deeds in the past. It was so perfect for her" Renita said.
"Wait, aren't you familiar with Rianti? Why are you saying this to me?" ask Rianti.
"No .. don't get me wrong, Laura. I just want you to know, that Rianti is actually not what you think it is. You think he really loves Henry? I guess not. I feel like she's a bad woman. There's something that Henry wants, whether that's what," Renita said.
"I'm confused about you, Ren. You look so close to Rianti, you keep suddenly approaching me and vilifying Rianti's ugliness. So what does all this mean? I was confused" said Laura.
"I want you not to care about Rianti. If you like Henry, keep it up! Because Rianti also has a dark past, he's not good for Henry!" said Renita.
"The thing I like or don't like about Henry is none of your business, Renita. I'm sorry, I'm still confused about how you do this. Yes, maybe what Rianti did was natural because legally, Henry was her husband. It is natural that he maintains his domestic relations. What's wrong is that I'm here. So I guess it's only natural" said Laura.
"You don't understand Laura. You don't know Rianti! I know her vices!"
"What's the deal with me then? Don't you need to tell me?"
"Laura, you should be aware that Rianti is cunning. You have to be careful with him!"
"I feel that cunning is you, Renita. You pretended well in front of Rianti, and then dodged him behind her. I don't know. I don't know what you mean, but I still don't agree with you. Have a good day, Ren!"

In a four-star hotel room, Melani looks agitated as she waits for someone. He paced back and forth while occasionally looking at his phone. Faishal also looked impatient. He sat in a chair with a feeling of anger.
"Are you sure he'll come here?" ask Faishal.
"I've sent him a message, but haven't responded yet. I also tried calling but not getting picked up. Maybe he was busy" Melani said.
"I don't want to know how, which is clear I want this business to be done today! I have been urged too. I'm annoyed with it!" furious Faishal.
Melani was silent. He just according to what Faishal said because his position was not profitable. He just wants to be with the guy and no matter what risks he gets. His mind was stifled, for his heart had been blinded.
"The shal!" melani said later.
"What?" jawan Faishal with a cold tone.
"You'll keep your promise, right?"
"What promise?"
Melani was annoyed by Faishal's reply. He then picked up the bag, hurried to step out of the hotel room. He was upset that Faishal was pretending to forget what he said. His mind changed, he wanted to leave the hotel room immediately.
"Where are you going?" ask Faishal.
"Enough Shal! Enough's enough! I don't want to do this. You better meet Riky yourself and take what's yours. Don't tell me to do this, because I can't. From the beginning it was all wrong, and I didn't want to get involved any further!"
Faishal was furious to hear Melani's words. He immediately got out of his seat, and blocked the door. He did not allow Melani to leave the hotel room.
"You can't go anywhere!" faishal.
Melani is shocked as Faishal blocks her steps. He tried to open the door but Faishal pushed him.
"Let me go! You'll lie to me too. You liar!"
"Mel, don't you trust me? Ha's? I'll marry you!"
"I changed my mind, Shal! I don't want to marry you!"
Faishal was angry to hear that. Just this time he heard a rejection from a woman. Melani again broke through Faishal to open the door, but again Faishal pushed her. This time, Faishal's push was even harder so the young woman fell on the floor.
"You .. You're so good to me, Shal!"
"Don't fuck around, Mel! I could have killed you!" threaten Faishal.
Paras Melani is getting scared. He was about to stand up, but suddenly he heard the sound of the door being knocked.
Tok .. tok .. tok!
