My Beautiful Lawyer
53

Fajri hooked his hand on Hasna's arm.

"What's this?" ask Fajri.

Hasna's eyes looked at Fajri's face then smiled.

"I'm being accused" Hasna replied.

"What are you planning?" ask Fajri.

"I was arrested, there was no plan" Hasna replied.

Beno stopped and turned around, he looked at Fajri who was very angry with him. Hasna walked again, Vino followed her, also staring at Fajri who was standing there.

In Beno's office.

A man, Beno's co-worker is tasked with recording Hasna's identity.

"Name!" he said while typing.

"Hasna Maulida Fadilah" replied Hasna.

"Job" continued.

"Lawyer" Hasna answered briefly and as necessary.

The man looked at her when he heard her work. Then he called Beno and whispered.

"What case? He's a lawyer, that famous lawyer right?" ask her.

"I'll be here soon" said Beno.

The man hung up his phone still curious about the case Hasna faced. Because there was no prior notice. While Hasna was just staring at him, she also raised both of her eyebrows, asking let alone the questions she had to answer.

Shortly after Beno arrived, he sat down where the man had been sitting.

"OK, just got to work. We will continue until you explain all the actions you take" Beno said.

"Ok" replied Hasna.

Beno was a little confused by Hasna's attitude. He is also only asked to accept the case Brian filed about him. He did not ask to be lightened or facilitated to escape from this interrogation.

"On the cctv footage we got from one of the hospitals that Hani visited, Nara's mother. You seem to be talking to him. The first question is, what are you doing at the hospital?"

Beno began his interrogation, he asked many questions about the allegations that Brian and Rusdiawan had made against him. Hasna answered all the questions casually. But in some of the questions about his intent to do all that, Hasna denied it. Beno recorded all Hasna's answers without exception.

But after a dozen questions were asked, Brian came in angrily and hit the table in front of Hasna.

"What did you do with the evidence?" asked Brian with a red face.

"Sir, you can't do this." said Beno to Brian who pulled Hasna's blazer.

"WHAT? He's already done..."

Brian could not speak anymore because he was upset given the actions of law firm Armand who had filed the Bima Sebastian case.

"Sir.., if it's about Bu Hasna's abuse case, leave it all to us. We'll finish everything. Ms. Hasna will be punished if all is proven" Beno said.

Brian takes off Hasna's blazer and leaves Beno's office. Hasna tidied up her clothes and sat back down casually looking at Beno.

Beno let out a loud sigh, he was relieved Brian left, but was also still tense with all the questions asked on Hasna.

Brian came up with an annoyed face and threw all the files on the table. Vino stared at him for a while then looked back at his computer.

"Your wife, what exactly is she planning?" brian said with a breath.

"Otherwise? You've reported his actions that you're accusing. You want more from him?" Vino is upset by the way Brian talks about Hasna.

Brian did not accept Vino answered tightly, he pulled Vino's suit collar and challenged him.

"If you talk to me like that again, I won't hesitate to put my fist on your face" Brian said right in front of Vino's face.

"You think I'd accept if you talked about my wife in that tone and manner of yours?" answer Vino.

"He has reopened the Dudung case and his case has been approved by the kejagung. Arrests will be made on your father, trials will begin after your father is caught. What kind of kid are you? Why not defend your father?" obviously Brian.

"Hahaha.., I separated from her for a few years, the reason we separated because she caused my mother's death. So, about this case, maybe he's guilty. Don't be too eager to defend him" said Vino.

Brian frowned, greatly astonished by Vino's indifferent reaction. He took off his hand and backed off.

His eyes glanced at Vino's computer showing an examination of Hasna's case.

"What are you gonna do? Why re-examine Hasna's case?" ask Brian.

"I'll set him free. I will defend my wife" said Vino.

Brian gaped in disbelief, painstakingly finding evidence of Hasna. But Vino is now trying to free him.

"I never thought I'd make an enemy a co-worker. If I knew you were like this, I wouldn't have accepted Bima's recommendation of you" Brian said.

Vino ignored him, he sat back down and did his job.

Brian was still upset by Vino's response. He went back to his desk and looked for things that could be used as an alibi for Bima.

But when he was about to contact Bima, there was absolutely no answer. Vino, who heard the sound of an unanswered call from Brian's phone, glanced at him and grinned.

"Obviously he's not going to pick up your phone, he's gone" Vino said.

Brian's eyes rounded hearing Bima had escaped.

"Don't joke, he can't possibly escape. What to avoid? She's...."

Brian sighed after all the thought that Bima was indeed guilty implied in his mind.

Brian left the office and left. Vino doesn't care about it, he's focused on Hasna's files.

In between all the introductions Beno had done to Hasna, Fajri came after he checked his belongings in his house. Fajri came directly to hit Beno in the face and made him fall on the chair. The surprised Hasna, stood up and helped Beno.

"What did you do to the stuff in my house? Is this how you take someone down? I told you not to touch her, but why are you doing all this?"

Fajri is burning with rage, the thought of Beno's betrayal upset him.

Beno looked at Hasna after hearing Fajri's words. Hasna pulled Fajri's hand and moved away from Beno.

"Don't stop me, he's not human. How he did this to us when he knew all the pain we were going through" said Fajri.

"I did it!"

Hasna's words made Fajri speechless fixated on staring at her and Beno alternately.

"I took all your stuff, not Beno" Hasna explained.

Fajri closed his eyes for a while to regain his consciousness. She needed time to digest what Hasna said and her intentions brought all the evidence she could about her.
