REVENGE (CHILD) WASTED WIFE
Chapter 22. Mother is not guilty

Gerald fell silent and slowly adjusted his breathing flow. He was completely at a loss for words to apologize to Agatha.

His young wife Gerald, Merlin seemed very agitated at the same time uncomfortable. The woman was really afraid that Gerald would know her secret all along. If it's uncovered and Gerald's gonna leave it for good.

“Mas, let's just go back!” pinta Merlin while pulling her husband's hand. Before Agatha tells the truth it's better to bring Gerald back. Merlin did not expect that Agatha would dare to speak.

Gerald didn't comment on the woman's request at all. The man just kept silent as he looked at the two eyeballs of Agatha who were trying to stem the tears.

“Agatha, please forgive me. I confess that all this time I was wrong, for leaving you, and I am sure Gilang will also approve my request, because he is our son!”

Hearing the words spoken by Gerald, the tears that had previously dammed in both of his eyelids Agatha was now no longer curled and wet both cheeks.

“Our son you say? You used to leave me pregnant alone in prison, Mas! I gave birth to Gilang in prison, and had to wait for him to be raised by the Orphanage ...” His voice his cry peaked and pressed him on the sentence ‘Asuhan’. “.... Now you ask me to come back to you, after your young wife is no longer able to give you offspring????” agatha asked with a stifled voice.

“Heh ... You are guarded by the way!!!” Merlin who heard himself called also peaked. The woman came forward and faced Agatha while staring intently at the two eyes of the woman. “I fell gini, because of you! I died because you tried to kill me eight years ago!” shouted Merlin.

Gerald immediately pulled Merlin's wrist as the woman peaked and was about to slap her slap towards Agatha.

“Merlin, what are you doing? I'm already quite embarrassed by this commotion! Don't make the noise even more!” gerald's order left Merlin speechless a thousand words. The woman retreated and took her breath away so as not to return the emotion.

The voice of the invited guests sounded increasingly boisterous. It was definitely talking about the commotion that was happening right now.

Bima can only be silent, he watched everything because he still did not really understand what really happened while preparing for an uproar that could create mass unrest.

While Gilang who had been holding Bima's right hand, his stepfather was worried. He was afraid that there would be a big disagreement between the two sides.

However, the boy tried to regain control of his emotions and mindset. He recalled the main purpose of this plan.

Crossed forward one step after releasing his stepfather's hand. Agatha turned her head towards Gilang with a puzzled look. “Dad Gerald, do you know, why you're in jail?” the question made both sides look at him.

“Not it clear?” in a high tone Merlin cut the little boy's words.

“Heh little boy! Just so you know yes! Your mother almost killed Auntie when she was pregnant with you!” Bela Merlin returned in a high tone hoping that the boy was frightened.

“Merlin!!” Gerald immediately held back the hand of Merlin who wanted to throw his slap towards Gilang. Bima suddenly pulled Gilang's body to protect him when Melin was about to slap him.

“What do you do?” Bima tried to hold back her emotions. He really couldn't stand Merlin's behavior from now on.

There was no fear, for he had learned the true facts hidden by his stepmother. The boy still did not feel frightened as the woman snapped and threatened him with a slap. However, again he devised the right strategy to reveal what really happened.

Gerald was fed up with what his wife was doing. The man looked irritated and pulled Merlin back to the back of his body.”Merlin ! what exactly did you do by wanting to slap her? He's just a kid, how know anything!” gerald's snapping irritated Merlin and gnashed his molars.

“MERLIN!!” gerald's snapping left Merlin speechless again in a thousand languages.

Agatha too who was feeling annoyed, immediately wiped her tears while taking her breath away. “He's right, Mas. You better get out of here so as not to make more noise,” throw Agatha with a sobbing sound still heard between the sound cavities. He really felt devastated at this moment, the day he should be happy, now turned into such a sad day for him.

Hearing the sentence of the expulsion from Agatha Gerald was stunned. He was really embarrassed in front of everyone. The man tried to ignore the stares and whispers coming from the mouths of those around him.

“Wait, Mom. Don't throw them out!” Agatha and Gerald looked at the little boy.

“I want to tell Father Gerald something,” Bima slowly release the body of her stepson and keep preparing from behind.

“What do you want to say?” Agatha slowly approached and aligned her position with Gilang while grasping her small wrist.

Gilang looked at his mother's face, then turned towards Gerald and then finally towards Merlin. Merlin who was frightened because the child's face was so serious, she immediately turned back her wits to bring her husband away from here. “Udah ah mas, let's just go from here! I've been embarrassed times!” take Merlin with her while pulling her husband's wrist.

Gerald pulled his hand back from Merlin and refocused both eyes towards Gilang.

“Dad Gerald, actually the evil one was not my mother,” the first sentence uttered by the boy managed to make Merlin hold a frantic breath.

while Gerald frowned wondering. “You mean, what?”

Gilang looked back at his mother who was shedding tears, then back to face Gerald. “Actually, Mother never made his wife Papa Gerald miscarry, just all it was just the subterfuge of Aunt Merlin to make Papa mutusin relationship and imprison Mother so that aunt can marry Papa. I have the proof. Papa can hear it at home."

Agatha was now back sobbing profusely. She really could not accept the fact that all this was done by her ex-husband in order to get a woman more beautiful than herself.

Gerald widened his eyes, trying to digest back the words spoken by the boy.

“Engga, that's not true. Mas, do not need to believe the same words he, he is just a child ordinary mas, could be Agatha who taught him to lie mas and damage our relationship, can,” said Merlin in a nervous voice.

Gerald seemed indecisive, he knew that it was impossible for a child to say such words without a reason.

He stared at Agatha's crying face without breaking the defense of his young wife. “Is that true, Agatha?” ask Gerald.

Agatha took another breath, and nodded in response. Merlin held his breath as he looked at Gerald's gaze that was gritting his teeth towards him. “Is that true, Darling?”

Not daring to lie and speak, she was completely frightened to see the sharp gaze of her husband and nodded in response.
