Part 45 Family Arrival
Alea and Kenzo are getting ready for the airport. After painstakingly persuading Alea, Alea finally accepted Kenzo's offer to settle in Bali.
All Alea's business is done, her divorce lawsuit is cleared by the court. So he can breathe a sigh of relief now. Alea just thought of the way ahead. Alea looked at Kenzo who looked as handsome as ever. Had Alea not fallen in love with Bian first, it was possible that he would have fallen in love with the man's charm. The man was her best friend since High School, Alea knew very well how the man's personality was.
Kenzo took Alea by the hand, linked his fingers and revealed his smile.
"You ready?" Alea smiled wryly, then nodded confidently.
"Happiness awaits you in a new place." Kenzo rubbed Alea's head slowly.

It didn't feel like Bian had been looking for Alea for a month. He went around looking for her everywhere. Don't forget Bian paid people to look for Alea. He also mobilized all his confidants to find where Alea was. However, until now the results remain nil. Bian had no word at all on where Alea was.
"Alea, where are you, baby? I miss you ...." Bian rubbed Alea's photo on
the screen of his phone, the photo he secretly stole while the woman was asleep.
Bian rubbed his hair, his head throbbed in pain, and Bian was in his study. Some documents piled up on his desk.
Bian leaned his body on the chair. Since Alea's departure, Bian seemed to have lost half his life. Although there was Amara by his side, but Bian still felt that there was less. The shadow of Alea's face as she smiled, as she grieved, and as she cried still vividly remembered in her head.
Moreover, the shadow as Alea cried out in pain, everything was recorded clearly, just like it had just happened yesterday.
Bian put his face on the table. His shoulders shook, Bian cried. It was always like that, as she recalled how Alea cried out in pain as she struck him with a belt, thus making the woman lose her child-to-be. His son is his own flesh.
"Sorry! I'm sorry Alea ... Forgive Papa, too, dear, for Papa's crimes have left you before birth." Bian's shoulders shook increasingly louder. Not only is he crying now, he is screaming. Mbok Sumi who was going to deliver the coffee in Bian's message, undoes his intention to enter the Bian workspace. Both of Mbok Sumi's eyes glazed over.
"After Non Alea left, Den Bian only regretted and felt lost. This regret was not how Den, after Den Bian knew Non Alea was innocent, Den Bian would definitely cry blood from regret. Or maybe, will die asphyxiated when he finds out that the woman is not as good as he imagined. Just wait for time, soon all the truth will be revealed," inner Mbok Sumi, then knock on the door of Bian's study.

Bian and Amara were sitting relaxing on the living room couch when suddenly the sound of her doorbell was heard. Amara, who was sitting not far from the door, immediately got up from her seat and opened the door.
Behind the door, two middle-aged women who still look beautiful stood up in wonder looking at Amara with her distended stomach.
"Who are you?"
"I'm supposed to be who you are, what do you two want to come to my house?" Amara sat down with pride.
"Your house?" The woman in front of Amara frowned confusedly, then she researched the house properly.
"Darling, who's coming?"
The two middle-aged women looked at each other.
Bian stood behind Amara out of curiosity to see who was coming. Both of his eyes were shocked when he recognized who had come.
"Bian, who is this pregnant woman? Where's Alea?" Bian looked nervous, then immediately he told the two middle-aged women to sit down. While Amara stared awkwardly at the two people. He did not expect that the one who had just come was his mother Bian.
"Who is Bian? Where's my son-in-law?" From the direction of the door came two middle-aged men who looked still dashing and also a young man who was holding a beautiful woman beside him.
"Mr ...." Bian was again surprised when he saw his father also came with his Father-in-law, not to miss, his brother-in-law also came with them.
What the hell, why did they all suddenly come?
Bian's face looked pale when he saw the murderous gaze of Rangga, the brother-in-law.
"Where's Alea Bian? Why isn't Alea with you? So who is this pregnant woman?" Bian's Mama's barrel, banging Bian, makes Bian not wart at loss for words.
"I'm Amara, Bian Aunty's wife." Everyone looked towards Amara.
"What did you say? You're Bian's wife?" Aditama shouted, making Amara jump in shock. In his heart Bian cursed the stupidity of Amara who even honestly admitted who he was.
"Bian, quickly you explain, who is this woman really? Then, where is Alea, why isn't she here?" Bian looked at everyone nervously. Hearing the question from his Father-in-law, Bian slightly shook.
"Alea went with her lover, it's been over a month that she hasn't come home to this house." Again Amara answered lightly.
"What?!" Everyone looked at Amara with a look of disbelief.
"What do you mean?" Suddenly Rangga furiously approached Amara.
"My sister can't possibly do the thing you're accusing of, Alea isn't that kind of woman." Rangga's blood was boiling, it felt like he wanted to strangle the neck of this woman in front of him, for having dared to vilify Alea.
While Bian was still silent, he did not dare to answer. But seeing the sharp gaze of Rangga who seemed to want to swallow it, Bian inevitably had to answer Rangga's question.
"Come on Bian, answer! Where's Alea?"
Bian did not have time to answer, the sound of knocking on the door sounded, making them all turn towards the door.
Mang Ujang smiled, and looked down politely, in his hand was a large brown envelope.
"Den Bian, there's a package for Den Bian, from Non Alea." Mang Ujang handed the envelope to Bian, then immediately bailed back to his post.
While in the room everyone looked at each other. The atmosphere that had been tense, grew tense when suddenly his father-in-law Bian told Bian to open the envelope containing the package from Alea in front of them.
