My Last Wedding Chance
Chapter 120 Secrets and Lies

The questions grew more urgent as he stood there, observing and eventually he withdrew. "You met him ?"

"well" short the woman

The warm, moist atmosphere felt strong in the room, Anton's mind filled with various conjectures "So, you mean you've told him ?"

Cathy shook her head slowly, looking at the man "Almost"

Anton stood up, furrowing his brows "You mean ?"

The woman took a step back, providing some distance between them. Cathy knew one day this would be a discussion between the two and the woman did not want anything to hide anymore, because all these pieces of the puzzle had to start to be solved "I was the one who took Harumi to the hospital the night of the accident."

Anton's cold expression was as if it did not accept with all Cathy's recognition.

A fiery and stinging chemical surge that makes the air tension-laden and makes his body pulsate a sharp response that is entirely angry.

Of course, all scenarios are arranged in such a way that one incident connects each part of life that connects people who are actually so close.

Anton was at a loss for words, in his heart he was so shocked, angry, disappointed, but this anger was somehow aimed at whom. Both of his hands clenched tightly, streaks of annoyance clearly drawn on his face.

While shaking her head and smiling thinly "I never expected to meet Harumi in such a moment. Had you seen him on the road in the heavy rain, I'm sure you would never have been able to hurt his feelings."

Anton froze and now he was filled with regret and self-blame.

***

Three minutes ago

The faint ringing sound of a cell phone rang out, waking a person from his sleep.

"Hallo"

Harumi who heard the answer of the call, was immediately shocked. Then he looked back at his phone screen, making sure the number he was calling was correct or he had called the wrong number.

His brows furrowed, his number was indeed correct but the voice that answered the call was not the voice of the owner of the contact.

"Who is .." replied Harumi hesitantly

"Hallo"

This voice was so foreign, even Harumi did not recognize it at all.

However, Harumi could confirm that this was the voice of a small child.

A little boy ? it's been so late, why is there a little kid in his apartment ?

"Hello, I want to talk to Cathy ?" in a soft tone Harumi tried to talk back to her

It took him a few seconds, until he finally responded to Harumi's question.

"Mommy is not here."

Mommy ? Harumi paused for a moment to sift through the archives in her brain. Stunned by the child's response and still trying to understand the implications, the woman frowned "are you sure, Cathy is your Mommy ? Catherine Jones ?"

"Well" he replied in a plain tone

Harumi sighed deeply "What's your name ?"

"Freddie"

"How old are you ?" continued

"The Four years old"

Harumi's expression was suddenly gloomy. And the night was getting colder and more piercing Harumi's skin, the woman was still standing on the balcony and hoping to talk to someone who could help her through the night a little.

And he hopes it's his best friend, Catherine Jones. But, all turned around with reality that made Harumi so shocked.

Is Cathy hiding something from me ? All this time she had a boy ?

Harumi's mind was crowded and began to reopen various speculations and sort out his memories.

Then it flashed that glint, he recalled something the last time he left Cathy's Apartment.

Toothbrush ? does it belong to this boy ?

Harumi's mouth stiffened, her eyes widened.

Then he again tried to focus on the phone he was holding, and returned his attention to the child.

"Well, aunty whats your name ?"

"Harumi"

The sound of stepping from the bed and the sound of footsteps was heard by Harumi. The boy named Freddie walked in to open the door.

"Freddy ?" call Harumi slowly

But Freddie did not respond because the phone was now in his grasp while the sound of footsteps began to go down the stairs.

Harumi could hear Freddie's every move very clearly from behind the phone. Start the sound of his stepping and the sound of his footsteps coming down the stairs.

Harumi tried to regulate the rhythm of her breathing, her mind still filled with many questions. Although without realizing it, Harumi even forgot what he should be worried about now, namely Anton who beum also went home when the time has shown early morning.

Concerns continue to creep in Harumi, as she has not heard from him since Anton left her after they had a fight.

Harumi rubbed her neck and closed her eyes for a while. The woman tried to think clearly, and act calm. But, his efforts were unsuccessful because however the mind of common sense and his heart had not run in sync since three years ago.

Katika Harumi wants to call "Fred.." she stopped.

The woman heard something that she should never even have imagined.

From behind his cell phone, though vaguely he could hear two people talking seriously to each other.

Harumi no longer heard Freddie's footsteps, as she expected the boy stopped in place while holding his phone in his hand.

Harumi tried to call her name back, but, Freddie did not respond.

The woman began to feel worried and anxious about the situation that was happening. He can't do anything.

Harumi still continued to activate her call, then carefully listened to the conversation of the two people who began to sound again.

At first, Harumi was not sure. But, after listening to her well there was a female voice, and she was very sure it was Cathy.

Then, the other voice started to sound and this time it was very clear. Well, it's a man's voice.

Harumi's fingers were getting tighter holding the phone in her ear, she was quite curious about the man's voice which was indeed a bit vague perhaps because it was further from Cathy's position.

Then, the voice approached. Provides a clearer sound effect to Harumi's sense of hearing at that time.

"For a while don't tell Harumi anything, especially about the boy"

Anton ? Feeling like fainting and shaking, Harumi subconsciously dropped her phone.

The woman heard clearly and recognized the man's voice. It was the voice of her husband, Anton Riandra.

I don't know, why today as if all the things that make her shock approached Harumi bertubi.

A breath stuck in his throat and suddenly Harumi was flooded with feelings that he had been hiding for years.

The woman took a trembling breath.

What's Anton doing at Cathy's apartment at this hour ? What are they talking about, what are they hiding from me ? What is this show ?

Harumi was stiffened, he stood fixed. In a deep sense of disappointment, Harumi felt her face cold as a chunk of ice. His blood flow came to a halt, as if time was beginning to make him disappear from the world.

Harumi still could not believe what she was hearing at the moment.

Who is that boy really ? why did Anton find out about Freddie ?

The woman began to recall where she had heard what her mother had said before. The two talked a long time ago. At first glance the memory reappears, when his mother Harumi once told him not to trust Cathy.

At first Harumi did not want to take her statement seriously, because she thought it was very unlikely that Cathy, her best friend, would cover something from her.

Harumi felt a moment of anxiety, her chest rising and falling as she drew air into her lungs.

Then, he picked up the phone that had fallen off earlier and tried to contact his mother. Harumi didn't want to wait until morning. He wanted to find the answer himself, there was no need to wait until Anton came.

Harumi is a stupid woman who makes a lot of mistakes, but she does not want to torture herself anymore.
