"What is there really a connection between Mr Harold and that woman? Looks like they know each other very well" Nick whispered to Jimmy who was still paying attention to the small debate between Mr. Harold and Bu Lidya.
"So, I don't know either" replied Jimmy.
Not only Jimmy and his friends were confused, Mommy Martha and Mei did not think that it turned out that Bu Lidya was so familiar with the figure of Mr. Harold. The head of the gang of the Sangar mafia.
While everyone was beginning to wonder since when the two people knew each other, Ze was busy calming down Bu Lidya who was already upset with Mr. Harold.
"We'd better sit down, ma'am. We can talk about everything well," Ze persuaded as he grabbed onto Bu Lidya's shoulder and took her to the sofa.
Ms. Lidya followed Ze's request, but her mouth didn't stop mumbling. While Lord Harold could only resign and follow the two women from behind. After Ze and Bu Lidya sat down, Mr. Harold followed immediately and returned to his original position.
"Why did you kidnap my son, huh?" bu Lidya asked with a sharp spotlight on Mr. Harold.
"Mom," Ze interrupted.
"You're quiet! Let this man explain everything," Bu Lidya continued with bulging eyes looking at Ze making the daughter silenced and no longer dared to speak.
"Actually I have no intention of hurting your daughter in the slightest, Lidya. I just want to see Jimmy. However, since Jimmy never came to see me, I finally decided to kidnap Ze so he could come to this place" Mr. Harold said with a sad face.
Nick chuckles softly then whispers to Jimmy. "I suspect, maybe between Mr. Harold and your mother-in-law there's been a connection in their past. Look how Mr. Harold looks at your mother-in-law, Jimmy."
"Hush! I know you," Jimmy replied.
"It's not like I know, but my instincts say that" Nick continued.
"Let's not it's just your excuse" grumbled Bu Lidya again.
"Oath, for God's sake, Lidya. I'm not lying. As long as you know me, have I ever lied to you? No, right?" sahut Mr. Harold.
Bu Lidya was silent because what the man said was true. As long as Bu Lidya knew Mr. Harold, the man always told him the truth. Ze scratched his non-itchy head. He was curious since when his mother knew the figure of Mr. Harold, the head of the mafia.
"May I ask you something?" ze asked as he looked at Bu Lidya and Mr. Harold's faces in turn. Mr. Harold nodded his head while Bu Lidya just kept quiet and did not answer Ze's question back then.
"When did you know each other? Why don't I know?" asked Ze with a surprised face.
"Actually-"
Mr. Harold and Mr. Lidya answered in unison and stopped their words in unison. Mr. Harold smiled faintly as he looked at Bu Lidya. So did the middle-aged woman, she looked timid and immediately shifted her gaze.
"Let me explain" Mr. Harold told Mr. Lidya.
"You'd be surprised to know who I am, Ze. I'm your uncle, the younger brother of your late father" said Mr. Harold, who surprised everyone in the room. Including Jimmy and Mommy Martha.
Ze's eyes were perfectly rounded, he was so shocked to find out that Lord Harold was his Uncle. Ms. Lidya was no less surprised, she did not expect that her husband who had disappeared did not know the jungle, was dead.
"Ja-so Gerald's dead?!" screeched Bu Lidya while covering her mouth with both hands.
Master Harold nodded his head slowly. "Yes, Lidya. Gerald's dead, a year after he left you because of his pain."
Madam Lidya was silent for a moment. There was sadness on his face at that moment. He knew that Gerald did have a history of heart disease, but he did not expect that Gerald would leave him that soon. Ms. Lidya exhaled heavily before again asking Mr. Harold about her late husband.
"You're evil, Harold. Why didn't you tell me about Gerald. I always thought badly of him. I always thought that she had remarried and forgotten about me with Zea" said Bu Lidya who finally could not hold back her tears from falling.
"I'm sorry, Lidya. I tried to find you, but I did not find you" said Mr. Harold.
"Hhh, excuse! I never went anywhere. I still live in our humble house even today" said Bu Lidya with a bent face.
Mr. Harold exhaled heavily. There was regret on his face at that moment. "I'm sorry," he said.
"Then, where is Gerald buried? I want to visit his grave" said Ms. Lidya.
"I happened to bury him not far from the villa next to the graves of our parents" Harold replied. "If you want to visit his grave, I can take you, please" he continued.
"Yes, I want to go there," Ze interrupted with teary eyes. Not only Ze, Bu Lidya also wanted to visit the grave of her husband.
