A week later...
Hilda and Alex have been separated since their fight that night. Hilda decides to get out of her house, leaving Alex alone. And Alex didn't prevent it at all. Somehow her feelings for Hilda just disappeared in an instant. In fact, she wants to immediately claim the woman's divorce and marry her daughter Elica.
But the divorce papers between Alex and Hilda was out, it was all because Leo also intervened so that Elica's mother could be quickly separated from Alex.
And he immediately took Elica away.
In the office, Alex is struggling with a pile of files on his desk. The sound of knocking on the door was heard from outside his office. Before long his secretary came in with some documents in his hands.
"Excuse me sir, here are some documents to sign. And there is one document sent from the court" said the beautiful secretary.
And suddenly Alex immediately stopped his activities, and stared at the documents he said his secretary.
"Who sent here?" Ask Alex
"A courier sir"
"alright. You can go"
"I'm sorry then."
After his secretary came out, Alex hastily opened the document. And sure enough, it was a divorce papers from Hilda that even signed directly by Hilda.
Alex feels his pride in the stampede. Though he who intends to file a lawsuit against Hilda, not the other way around. But Alex was immediately thought of by something. It's all there must be interference from Leo, because the man wants to take Elica away. And Alex won't let anything happen.
********************
Elica is making drinks for herself and her mother. Yeah, right now her mom lives with her in Leo's house.
Leo tells Elica's mother to stay with her until the divorce process is complete. The reason why Leo brought Elica and her mother to his house is because Alex already knew his old apartment. And inevitably Leo has to hide Elica in this house with her mother.
Now Hilda is watering plants on Leo's porch. The thing that he had always done for him, to see a fresh plant could remove the burden of his mind.
Before long Elica also came to bring two glasses of drinks that she had made earlier.
"Mom" Elica put her drink on the table. Hilda turned to look at Elica and smiled.
"What do you do, baby"
"I make guava juice. Drink first Mom"
"Thank you, Elica"
They also drank together in front of the porch of the house while looking at the plants that had just been watered by Hilda.
"Mom's... About your divorce and__"
"Mommy's already signed her to Elica. Last night Leo gave his file to Mommy. And maybe today the lawsuit is in Alex's office"
"Mom sure you're getting divorced again?"
Ask Elica slowly. To be honest, she's still traumatized by the word "divorce".
"Make sure baby. After the divorce Mommy will find a job to support Mommy's own needs. Mommy is very sorry, for what Mommy chose yesterday. Turns out you got dragged into this too. And more fatally you're a victim"
Hilda answered while staring blankly ahead. Elica looked at her mother with pity.
He knows his mother was wrong, but it's not important to blame who's wrong.
"I'll marry Leo in Germany after all this is done. I hope Mommy comes back to Daddy, I'm sure she can forgive you Mom"
"No Elica. Mommy no longer has the face to meet your Daddy. Mommy's embarrassed."
"Although unable to reunite, at least Mom should meet and apologize to Daddy, Mom. Trust Mom, Daddy's heart is very soft. If Mom wants to see him, he'll forgive you. Or I'll take you there"
"No need, dear. Mommy will be there by herself. What about your content, aren't you nauseous?"
"Just a little nauseous. But I can handle it"
"Thankful is. Mom hopes you marry Leo soon, she can protect you, Elica. When are you guys leaving?"
"Leo said once everything's done we'll be on our way"
"I hope Alex signs the suit soon"
***********************
That afternoon Alex drove a very fast car to get somewhere. He looks so angry that he vents it by grasping the steering wheel of his car tightly. A few minutes later he arrived in front of a large company that read "Leonard Corporation ".
Sure enough, it's Leo's company. Alex got out of his car and immediately entered the office carrying a document in his hand.
After a while he was immediately allowed to enter meet Leo in his room. Without knocking on Alex's door, just open Leo's door.
"There is a guest of his likeness" said Leo
"No need to talk. What does this mean" Alex said angrily as he threw the documents he had brought to Leo's desk.
"Sit down first, Mr. Alex. Can I order a drink? It seems you're being emotional" Leo replied casually.
"Don't play with me, Leo. You picked the wrong enemy if you wanted to make trouble with me" Alex snapped.
"Well, what's wrong? You suddenly walked in without excuse, then threw documents at me, and suddenly you got angry? What's your problem, Mr Alex?"
"Don't act plain in front of me. Because it's so disgusting. You don't have to interfere with my dealings with Hilda. I know you're taking care of this lawsuit, right? Now tell me where are Hilda and Elica?"
"Why are you asking me, Mr Alex? Hilda's your wife, and why are you asking me about Elica? You are so funny" Leo said in a quip.
"Alright if you won't answer. But you have to remember one thing. I won't sign the divorce papers before Elica meets me. And don't expect you to take Elica away from here, because she's mine" Alex said.
"So you came here to threaten me?"
Ask Leo.
"I'm not threatening, I'm just giving you a warning. Don't play games with me, or you'll see your company's gone in seconds if I want it. You get it"
"Hahahaha just do Alex, I'll wait then. Now go 'cause you're wasting my time, or do I need to call the security guard?"
Alex left after saying what he wanted to say. As for Alex, Leo looked very upset. Wrong if you think Leo does not dare with Alex, the reality was that Leo had held his anger so as not to punch Alex in the face because of his behavior and said Alex just now. It provokes his emotions a lot, but Leo doesn't want to make a fuss in his own office.
But Leo's heart is still not calm, considering Alex has not wanted to sign the divorce papers which means Alex already knows his plan, if Leo will take Elica away after the divorce is complete. So Alex would use any means to stall her divorce.
Leo finally decided to go home early and quickly tell Elica and her mother about what Alex said earlier. Leo immediately drove his car home.
Without him knowing it turns out Alex followed him from behind, without being realized by Leo.
Leo arrived at a large house owned by him, while Alex now knows where Elica is. It turns out that Leo hid Elica in that house. Alex leaves soon after he finds out.
*********************
"Tumben once is home, what's up?" Ask Elica.
"Where's your mother?"
"He's in the room, what's going on Leo?"
"Can you call your mother Elica? There are things I want to talk about" Leo said
"Well wait a minute"
Elica also called her mother in the room, before long they had gathered in the middle room.
"What's Leo?" Ask Hilda.
"Look at aunt, Alex came to my office and she returned the divorce papers she had sent to her. And Alex won't sign it"
"Why would he know if you helped my mother Leo?"
"She knows maybe because she's already realized that once the divorce is over, then I'll take you to Elica"
"Then what else did he say?"
"Alex said he'd sign it if you wanted to see him, Elica"
"No. You don't meet her Elica, she's a dangerous and cunning man. What if he took you away" Hilda said in an anxious tone.
"Relax aunt, even if Elica meets her I'll be with her." Leo calmed Hilda.
"Mom calm down. What Leo said was right, I'm going to meet him with Leo. All this for the sake of this problem quickly finished Mom" said Elica.
"But Mommy's afraid she's done something to you Elica"
"That can't be Mom, after all I'm pregnant with her child. He won't hurt me"
Elica's words succeeded in making Hilda and Leo speechless.
"When are you going to see her?" Ask Hilda.
"Faster is better, I guess" replied Elica.
"All right, what if tomorrow. You want?"
Sahut Leo's.
"Of course"
"Dragon Elica's fine, Leo"
"Good aunt"
*************************
The next day, Elica and Leo come to Alex's office. They come unbeknownst to Alex with the divorce papers.
Arriving at Alex's room, the man looks silent and continues to pay attention to Elica.
Leo and Elica sit opposite Alex in a chair. Leo then handed the document to Alex.
"As you wish, I brought Elica to sign this letter"
Said Leo.
Alex has no intention of answering Leo's words. He was still staring intently at Elica, but unfortunately Elica threw away her face staring in the other direction.
"I told you, I'd sign it if Elica came but without you Leo"
Alex answered coldly.
"What's the difference? Now that Elica's here, you just need an autograph. What a hard thing" said Leo.
"Can you come out, there's something I want to talk to her about"
Without indirectly Alex expels Leo to leave him with Elica.
"No" replied Leo
"Alright if that's what you want. You can go, and don't expect me to sign it" Alex said coldly.
Emotionally ignited Leo finally stood up from his seat, but Elica quickly held Leo's arm.
"Go out a minute, Leo. You take it easy, I'll be fine" said Elica.
"No Elica"
"I beg Leo. Just a minute to get it all done"
Leo seemed to think for a moment, and finally nodded in agreement with Elica's words. Alex is seen smiling, looking at Leo out of his study.
Elica and Alex. They stared at each other in silence.
"Quick signature now"
"Look, honey, don't we have a problem to talk about?"
Alex said
"I don't have any more problems with you Alex so I hope you don't complicate this divorce"
"Why are you and Leo bothering about my divorce with your mother Elica. Though earlier if you do not interfere, I will be happy to take care of it until it is finished. And I just found out, if you guys do this so you can run away from me, right?"
"If so, why?" Challenge Elica.
"I like you when you act like this, baby. You look beautiful if you show your arrogant side. And such a woman is indeed fit to be my partner"
"Don't dream of Alex."
"Why not Elica, you're even pregnant with my child. The fruit of our love first. And just so you know, I won't let anyone else be the father to my son. And as long as I'm alive, I won't let you marry another man"
"I'll abort it when I get to Germany. So I won't be tied to you. And Leo will marry me after her"
Said Elica lightly and made Alex angry.
Alex stood up from his seat and pulled Elica to stand up. Alex quickly pushes Elica against the wall.
Elica grimaced as her back clashed against the wall. No matter what Elica's screeches on, Alex kisses her aunt violently.
Alex keeps pressing his body on Elica, as if eroding the distance between the two.******** for the sake of****** Alex lips he keeps giving to Elica, making it difficult for Elica to breathe.
"Go as far as you can, this time I'll let you go. But if I ever find you again, don't expect you to run away again. Because at that time you only had two choices, Elica. Go or die"
Alex whispers in Elica's ears with her sharp tone after their aunt's link is released.
Both of them were panting, then Alex distanced himself from Elica, and walked towards the table.
Unexpectedly, Alex immediately signed the divorce papers. He walked back to Elica and gave the letter to Elica. Elica was silent about what Alex was doing.
"Go away. Remember what I said" Alex said, then sat down in his chair. For a moment they looked at each other long enough, until then Elica decided the gaze and then came out of the room.
Outside, Leo was waiting for Elica. She can see if Elica carries the documents in her hands.
"Hows it? Did Alex sign it" Leo asked impatiently.
"It has. This" said Elica handing over the documents.
"You serious? He's gonna do it right away"
"You can see it if you don't believe it"
Leo opened it and sure enough, Alex's signature was there. Leo smiled at her.
"Finally you and your mother missed it"
"I'm tired Leo, can we go home"
"of course. Come on, Elica."
Leo and Elica got into the car and rushed home. Can't wait to tell Hilda this kind of thing. But unlike Leo, the look on Elica's face changed. She seemed worried about what Alex had said to her.
