Elena was busy when Mariana was home. Today she went to court accompanied by the ceremony that Elena entrusted to help her. Mariana was really helped even though the case was not finished yet. Although Elena no longer intervened like that time because Elena was busy with her work and some things caused by her best friend.
Both of his stepbrothers had indeed been rewarded because they were sentenced to dozens of years in prison for their actions at that time but there was still his stepfather who had not received punishment for evidence to entrap his father to enter prison is less. The judge did not accept the statement without evidence so he had to provide evidence to ensnare his stepfather.
Mariana came home with food and fruits, she had already gotten a ride so she had to know herself because she did not want to be Elena's burden. Mariana approached Elena, she wanted to know what Elena was doing because she looked so serious.
"Today it's faster than usual" Elena said without looking at Mariana.
"The trial was completed sooner brother-in-law, because today the decision trial and the two waji*Ngan was already getting the reward. All thanks sister-in-law, thank you," said Mariana.
"Is everything finished?" Elena did not interfere because she entrusted everything to the lawyer.
"It's not finished, brother-in-law. The old man still enjoyed his time. He is the one who made my life suffer. He beat my mother to death and then he ordered his two children to harass me and he took part!" Mariana looked vengeful yet she was helpless as she had no one who could be her refuge.
"You've been treated like that, why don't you run away from home?" Elena glanced at Mariana for a moment, she wanted to know why Mariana did not run away from her wedge family.
"I don't have anyone, brother-in-law. I was always threatened with being killed by them if I dared to report and tell them what they had done to me. I was too naive that I didn't dare to fight that's why I joined the Black Circle. Although all of the members were men but they never harassed me even they all accepted me."
"Then why don't you ask them for help to get away from your depraved family, Mariana?"
"They all have problems. I can't possibly drag them into my trouble. They just want to accept me and be friends with me make me happy."
"Well, then you must not hesitate to plunge the others after you have plunged the others!"
"I know, thank you for your sister-in-law's help. Regarding the fee to pay the lawyer, I will pay it slowly but in installments and after I have money," Mariana lowered her head, she looked embarrassed.
"Here you go, I'm not asking you for payment. I just want you to have a better life after this!"
"Sister-in-law, why do you have such a good heart? You helped us in totality. Not only helping the boss but also helping me and Leo. Sister-in-law did not ask for payment at all even though sister-in-law had spent a lot of money to help us. Why is sister-in-law so good?"
"I'm not good, really!" said Elena.
"It's not good how, brother-in-law don't be too low."
"I'm not down, Mariana. I do this because helping others is an obligation. My father was also born to a pair of criminals if you want to know!"
"What?" Mariana was shocked to hear Elena's words.
"But he was banished and found by a very good man. My father was loved more than his biological children so that we have a wonderful family that could be good, therefore, my father advised me to always do good to anyone in need and do not expect a reward. I can only be petrified but the rest depends on you whether you want to change or not. Like I gave Leo a chance, it doesn't mean he's going to be king right away but he has to prove whether he deserves to be in my family or not because if he doesn't, then I'll kick it and so will you and Jansen. Now you have to point out the crime of your stepfather and Jansen has to point to his family if he's not trash!"
"Thank you, does sister-in-law know why the bosses rebelled and made so much mess?"
"Isn't it because of her father?" ask Elena because that's what she knows. All this time he had indeed never scratched the matter of Jansen too far because it was none of his business.
"Indeed because his father doesn't care. The boss once said that he began to lose his father's affection after his mother died and after his stepmother entered the house along with his stepbrother."
"Is there a reason behind her mother's death?" at that time Jansen did not say the reason for his mother's death.
"That's great" said Elena.
"You won't regret accepting it, brother-in-law."
"What do you mean by this?"
"I can see if the boss likes you, brother-in-law. Maybe right now we're just bad kids but someday, we'll prove if we can surpass a lot of people even we can be successful people."
"Alright, I'm looking forward to it but I affirm one thing to you. I did help but as I said, it all depends on you. I hope you take this opportunity to avenge those who have done evil to you!"
"Thank you, brother-in-law. I'm not gonna waste the opportunity you gave me and I'm gonna figure out a way to knock that old jackass out."
"Good, go take a shower. At the dinner table there's food!"
"I brought food and fruit, would you like it?" ask Mariana.
"May, but later because I'm busy."
"What is sister-in-law doing? Can I help you?"
"No, I'm looking for a new job!"
"What?" Mariana looked surprised to hear Elena's words. Is Elena going to move in and get out of there? Looks like his boss should know about this.
"Go take a shower!" elena said, back busy looking for a new job. He had to find her immediately because he thought he had to move. Richard's mother misunderstood him and he did not want the misunderstanding to be more widespread so he was increasingly hostile when he did not disturb and tease Richard. Knowing them was not too, he rarely met Richard.
He knew Richard's mother's threat was no ordinary threat. Instead of him being dishonorably fired for something he didn't do to make his reputation bad, wouldn't he resign and find a new job? There are still many campuses that he can go to and he is sure there will be no enemies there but he has to find a really good campus this time even though the experience is still very minimal.
Elena who was still seriously looking for a new job was shocked when Mariana shouted from inside the room while running out. Elena got up from her seat and stepped quickly to approach Mariana.
"Why are you yelling?" ask Elena.
"Sister-in-law, I have an idea!" answer Mariana.
"Say, I'll help!"
"I really need your help, brother-in-law, to trap that old bastard!"
"Good, I'm glad you got the idea so fast!"
"Of course" answered Mariana. A smile adorned his face, he was sure that this time he could definitely succeed.
'"Wear your clothes, let's talk more about your plans!" Elena returned to the sofa, while Mariana had already run towards the room. Elena was indeed the nicest person she had ever met. Although Elena helped, but she did not immediately clear things up because she knew, Elena wanted to see her earnestness and she was sure that all of that applied to those who had been helped and that was exactly what she did.
Elena wants them all to change and no longer be losers especially Jansen because she hopes Jansen can solve her problems with her family without interference because she is not entitled to interfere. After all if Jansen really wants to be with him then he must show if he is able to solve his problems with his family.
