Cathy looked back at Anton, with her current condition making her abandon her intention to tell him about the man she had accidentally met.
Cathy felt very confident that the man had something to do with the night of the accident.
The face although vaguely visible due to heavy rain that hit that night, but Cathy still recognize the face of the mysterious man.
What did he do the night of the accident ?
Cathy had brainwashed many times to find the answer, but there was still no bright spot.
Cathy only remembers the night of the incident, when she ran to save Harumi. At first glance the figure of the man seemed to rush into the car, only once did he look back.
His face looked angry and annoyed. That guy must have known the real thing.
Was he the one who hit Harumi back then ?
"You go home" Anton finally broke the silence, he lifted his face heavily.
His eyes grew increasingly faint, black lines began to color the bottom of his eyes. Anton's body was limp, even to stand up he had difficulty.
Cathy shook her head with a skyrocketing jiggle of anxiety "I won't leave you now much less with this kind of condition."
Anton sighed, staring at the woman lazily "i want to be alone"
Cathy's face shrunk slightly. Actually he could have left Anton alone because of course he is not a child anymore who must always be accompanied. But, if you remember the habits of Anton who often temprament, and always vent his anger. Well of course you can be sure, the man will beat up the people he meets and create new problems that will definitely make it difficult.
And that's not what Cathy wanted to imagine, how it would be.
Because a man who is heartbroken is far more Terrible.
At least, although Anton was more often indifferent to her, only Cathy understood the situation now. Much better, than anyone else. "I've known Harumi since we were in college, since I first became acquainted with her my first impression she was a very quiet woman, not very sociable. And just focus on her education" Cathy said as calmly as possible, starting the story.
Anton was silent, and seemed to be listening.
"Just a month, I've been getting along with him. Although I used it at first just to cheat on college assignments and often ask for help." That flash of memory made both corners of Cathy's lips curl "but I finally realized, Harumi is a very good woman. He never protested if I always asked for his help in doing the work. Even to my surprise when she told me about her personal life, Harumi never dated any man in her lifetime. And that made me very shocked, at the age of 20 years when all the women had dated many times even changed partners. But not for Harumi."
Cathy turned towards Anton who still chose silence without responding, she just sat down leaning her shoulders against the chair.
With a flat expression, but he was still listening to Cathy's babble.
"Until it finally all changed when she met you, it was the first time Harumi told a man to me. How clumsy he was when he told of your meeting, the attention you gave him. All of these things are very influential on Harumi's life"
A slanted grin appeared on Anton's face when he heard the passage. And that's Cathy's realization.
"I didn't know at first that the man Harumi was telling me about was you. I found out when I was only 4 weeks pregnant." the tone of voice changed, Cathy did not want to continue, her chest suddenly felt something very strange. Bemoan.
But, Cathy's lips still covered the trace of a smile "I can only be happy to hear Harumi has found the man she truly loves, so I closed the door on my pregnancy."
"i don't want to hear it" Anton paused
Cathy didn't seem to care, she continued, "I didn't want you to know at first, but after that I changed my mind when I heard you were planning a wedding. That's why I was looking for you at the time. But, you didn't admit it because it was so sudden." Cathy closed her eyes and inhaled a deep breath of air. The woman opened her eyes and looked at Anton intensely "W-have you ever had feelings for me ?"
Anton begins to feel uncomfortable and turns his face away "What we did was just for fun, we were both drunk that night. After that, we go back to each other's lives. Just one night stand, I never planned a future with you. Only Harumi, only Harumi is in my life."
Hearing Anton's reply, Cathy was stunned. He felt his body stiffened by the man's reaction. Her heart was broken, because Cathy had feelings for Anton all along. And that feeling never changed, he chose silence because to keep Harumi feeling.
I wonder if it is imagined what this will be like later, if Cathy had to hold back continuously while someone she loved was down like now.
"After he betrayed you, you still love him. I envy Harumi, even she is always surrounded by people who love her so much. Even willing to sacrifice for him. If you really want it back, change ! Your temperament, your stubbornness, your ambition, eliminate it all. I'm sure she'll be back by your side" the woman smiled sorely
Anton squeezes the edge of the chair firmly, as the memory returns where Harumi chooses to be with Liam over him. The man realized that the man who was with Harumi was now a very powerful person, even the Owner of the Company where he worked.
For Anton to make the slightest mistake would be fatal because it was easy for Liam to destroy it.
Anton will lose everything, his job, his career, his hard work all this time and of course Harumi.
Anton's mind was upset, and full of. He was unceasingly lashing out at himself in front of Cathy "STUPID...YOU IDIOT!!!"
Cathy glared at "Calm down...I promise I will help you !! I promise to return Harumi to your side. Just stop acting like a kid!!!"
***
Ever since coming out of the party to Liam's Penthouse, the two of them were silent and busy with their own thoughts. While Secretary Wil and the other bodyguards were in another car following behind.
Liam chooses to drive his own luxury car without his personal driver, Harumi glances at Liam through the corner of his eye.
Since getting into the car, the two of them did not make a single sound. Harumi felt that she was being driven by a driver, not the car owner.
Harumi exhaled gently.
"Ehem!" Harumi cleared her throat, turning to Liam "I'm sorry about the incident"
Liam did not criticize, instead the man seemed not to hear his words. Liam looks cool himself dancing his fingers in the steering wheel to the rhythm of music that is playing in the car with a small volume.
Oh my God, is there a stone that clogs his ear or is there an adhesive in his throat until he does not hear or respond. Minimum as a base ?
Harumi tried again to make a sound "can I ask ?"
Quiescent. Means yes.
"hmmm.if the incident is known to the media. A-what ..."
"I don't care"
Harumi turned her head quickly at Liam who finally spoke. It turned out that the man was staring at him flatly, but only for a moment before turning his gaze back to the front, on the road that was being passed.
"W-what about your good name, your reputation, and your family ?" timpal Harumi later
"Is it that hard to answer the man's question ?" liam asked ignoring Harumi's sincere expression "I look like a coward in front of him"
"You mean ?"
Harumi only realized, something was stuck in her heart now. Liam looks upset.
The woman understood Liam's question intent, but Harumi tried to confirm it again. But, Liam spoke up again.
"Take you away from him, as it appears in the eyes of others. Maybe there's a point, I'm just a runaway, a place to take shelter. Even until now I don't know how you really feel"
Harumi felt awkward at first, but considering after what she experienced tonight there was nothing she needed to cover up anymore.
Harumi made her choice.
He chose Liam, the now jealous man right next to him.
There was no need to reveal openly how Harumi was feeling right now, as Liam should have noticed.
"I won't take this big of a risk, sitting next to you right now. If you don't have any feelings" the woman replied calmly
Even though his heart was now in great turmoil, where his feelings and common sense were at war. But, Harumi was ready to face all the big risks later.
Prepare to face loss, lose the trust of his family, shunned those closest to him, can blaspheme as a cheap woman, branded a mad woman of treasure, crazy money. All of that will definitely be accepted by Harumi in her life later, because for the sake of choosing with a man who has shaken her life and feelings.
No relationship like Liam and Harumi would go well. Destruction and loss will be felt both, choosing to betray marriage is not the path that the woman really wants, but the happiness that is taken on the suffering of others. This will cause the hot ball to keep rolling towards them.
"During the divorce process, let me take care of everything. Meanwhile, don't go see anyone. I've contacted some of my personal attorneys, they're finalizing the necessary files during the trial. I don't want you still tied to him" Liam's hoarse voice with his dark eyeballs and his breathing a little rough. He decided all of that decisively without the slightest hesitation.
