Revenge By Law's
ARTICLE 124

Andika still could not believe what she saw at this time. The woman, the woman he once respected so much, who should have been gone for about thirty years, was now smiling before him.

In fact, there have been many flowers sown for him, there have been many tears that spilled because they were not sincere about his departure, there have been many beautiful stories about the memory of his kindness, even given one day to grieve for him.

“Is Madam really alive?”

The woman smiled. He stood up from his chair and approached Andika. Her hand grabbed the hand of her husband's former favorite soldier and placed it on his left cheek.

“Look, I'm really alive.”

“But, Madam has died. Back then Madam -”

“So you've seen my body?”

Andika fell silent. Indeed, he never saw the corpse of the First Lady. The reason, in honor of the deceased. At that time the dictatorship of Hemas was quite strong and he and his family were considered creatures of a level above humans.

When the president with the characteristic thin mustache lapsed, people began to conspire about his late wife. The most powerful conspiracy is that the deceased died by accidentally getting shot while his children were fighting. However, the theory that the woman is still alive is not popular.

“Mrs!”

After being convinced that the woman was really a person she knew, Andika prostrated her arms around her legs while crying.

“Already, don't cry,” said the woman as she stroked her hair. “I'm happier here than to be next to that old bastard.”

Andika raised her head in confusion. She was sure that the old bastard in question must be the former president of Hemas, her husband. In fact, they used to be known as a friendly couple who never heard bad rumors between them.

“Why did Madam get here?”

“Because of that old bastard,” answered which made Andika even more confused. “He imprisoned me secretly and faked my death.”

“Why did you do it?”

The woman moaned in remembrance of the bad incident. “Because I caught him cheating with a young artist. He also imprisoned me in order to be more free to relate to *****it was.”

Andika stood up and looked at the woman as if she could not believe the story.

“Bapak can't do it. He will not be able to establish relationships with other women, especially with young women.”

The woman's face turned a little irritated. “It turns out you know the secret. Yes, since the age of fifty, he has been impotent.”

The woman looked at Andika cynically. Yes, only a handful of people know that the mistress really likes to be in a relationship with young men. Andika is included in a handful of these people.

“No, he had known about it for a long time and never minded,” said the woman who made Andika confused again because what she saw first was really far from reality. “But, due to Treasure Hemas.”

Hearing the words of the treasure of Hemas, Andika was immediately aghast. He is very familiar with that term. But, according to his knowledge, The treasure of Hemas was just an empty rumor that was breathed by political opponents of Hemas at that time so that it became one of the triggers of the popular uprising that led to the fall of the president who had been in power for more than thirty years.

However, no one can prove his existence. Hemas chose silence, his children claimed not to know it. The closest people to the president. Andika also never get questions about the Treasure of Hemas when in his trial first. Until finally Hemas died, everyone began to forget that and consider the Treasure of Hemas is just a lie.

“So, that thing really exists?”

“Of course.”

“Means, Mr really ‘sell’ this country on a stranger?”

The Madam laughed at the look of disbelief shown by Andika. “You are still the same, Andika. So naive. In fact, after decades of being deposed and finally dead, you still consider him a saint. As the person closest to the old man, I will say the most honest thing about him to open your mind now: he is the most terrible villain in the history of this country!”

Andika's body is limp. For decades he spent his life in prison proud to be able to defend a leader who always thought of his people, who managed to build this country until its economic growth became one of the best in the world, which was eventually vilified and humiliated from his leadership which was considered dictatorial by the parties who were not even able to bring this country in a better direction than the era of the president of Hemas.

With just a single sentence from the woman, all those thoughts were shattered. For the first time, he felt he had wasted his life for nearly thirty years in this place.

“You don't have to be sad. Soon you can scold the old man,” said the Madam who made Andika stunned.

“Ma, mean Madam?”

Without Andika guessing, someone came from behind and directly wrapped a thin but hard rope around her neck. Andika rebelled, but the man was stronger than her. Andika's face turned red and she could only look at the woman with her face as if asking, why did she do it?

“I heard from Jireh about a young man who was harassing our plans. Plan to build a hidden kingdom. And as it turned out, the young man was supposed to be imprisoned here and had managed to escape for the second time. Jireh believes that his second escape was assisted by people in prison. And I finally got the shocking information, that you were his real father.”

Andika's body began to relax. His hands that were pointed towards the woman slowly started to descend and his eyes also started to close.

“You should know, the old man can lead this country well for decades because of me. Because I always told him to get rid of the annoying thorn, even though it was a small thorn just look at how he was after I wasn't there next to him. Only a weak old man would let people slander and attack him.”

The woman walked towards Andika and stroked her cheek.

“You know why I was imprisoned by that old man? Because I advised him to kill our first son because he once stole our conversation about the Treasure of Hemas and kept demanding his share. Unfortunately, the old man loved his son more than his wife. Although he never told me about the whereabouts of the Treasure of Hemas, he protected our eldest son by exiling me in this place. I can kill my son, let alone you. I don't have to think long enough to kill you because you've been bothering me, even though you were my proud warrior. Take it easy, the same fate will soon come to your son. You can meet again in the afterlife later.”

Now Andika's eyes are completely closed and her body has drooped. The murderous man took off his rope and Andika fell to the ground. The woman laughed and sat back on her throne.
