Fiona again banged on the door of her room while shouting. "Ma, open the door, Ma. Let me out." Silent, there was no answer at all from outside his room.
"Open Ma. I'll do whatever you ask as long as you open it. Please open, Ma." Fiona again shouted as she continued banging on the door.
"Fio, relax. Don't keep yelling, mama's gonna get mad at you." Cindy approaches Fiona's room when she hears a noise from Fiona's room.
"Sister Cindy, please open the door, sister, I'm going out" Fiona pleaded. He no longer screamed so that he would not be heard by his mother. She tried to ask her brother for help, maybe her brother would help her.
"Fio, the key is held by mama. I can't open it" Cindy said.
"I have to see Steven, brother. Please tell mama I want to talk to her."
"Fiona, better wait till tomorrow, I'll persuade mama. Mom's mood is bad. It's free for you to talk to him now, that there's a mama who's gonna get mad at you. Moreover, the arrival of Steven had made the mother become emotional," said Cindy.
"All right." Fiona finally relented. Forcing to talk to her mother when her mother was angry and emotions would only hurt her.
Cindy looked at the man dressed in all black who was standing in front of Fiona's room. "Let me go inside. I want to talk to my sister" Cindy said as she looked at the man.
The tall man with a sturdy and sturdy body was a bodyguard that Sarah deliberately rented to guard in front of Fiona's room so that Fiona could not escape from the room when Fiona's housekeeper brought her a meal and drinks for Fiona.
"Sorry Miss, Mrs Sarah ordered me not to allow anyone to go inside" the man said.
"I just want to talk for a minute. I promise I won't say anything to Mom. I just want to see my sister."
The man did not flinch. "Sorry Miss, I still can't let you in. I'm just following orders from your mother. You'd better talk to your mom right away if you want to go inside."
Cindy sighed then walked towards her room.

"Have you investigated everything about Fiona's mother?" Steven who had just walked into his study immediately asked Erick.
"Already, Sir. The information I've sent to your personal email already," Erick replied with a nod.
Steven sat in his chair, while Erick stood in front of him. Steven started to open his phone to check his email. "It turns out so. I didn't expect there to be such an interesting thing. At first I thought, she still had a little right over Fiona."
Steven hissing. "It turns out that she has absolutely no right to Fiona's life and has the right to touch Fiona in the slightest. By not knowing his shame he enjoys what is not his."
"Yes, Sir. No mistress Sarah should treat Miss Fiona so casually."
"Are you sure about this information?" steven asked as he finished reading the information about Sarah and her family.
"Of course, sir. Even Sarah's mistress didn't know that. Only the late master Halim and the lawyer of Mr. Halim knew about it. Even the lawyer had irrefutable evidence."
Steven grinned. "Does master Halim know everything?"
"Yes, Sir. But he deliberately kept it a secret from his wife."
"Do you have a copy of that evidence?"
"There sir, I got it straight from the hospital."
"Where is that guy?"
"He just came back here after learning that Mr. Halim is dead."
"All right, we'll see him tomorrow."
Steven put his phone on the table. "I'll humiliate him until he doesn't have a face anymore. Bring some bodyguards tomorrow, if she doesn't cooperate with me, I'll take Fiona by force."
"Do you want to tell Miss Fiona the truth tomorrow?"
"No, I'll just talk to Sarah. I'll tell him later after I take him away from that house."
"Good, Sir."

In the morning, as Cindy promised, she came to see Fiona after persuading her mother to talk to Fiona. "I have permission from my mother to enter" Cindy told the man.
The man turned and opened the door. "Please Miss."
Seeing the door open, Fiona immediately got out of bed and walked over to her brother. "Sister, do you want to talk to me?"
"Here, my mom will see you later. You eat first." Cindy put the food she brought for Fiona on the nightstand. Today, she doesn't work because of the holiday so she has time to talk to Fiona.
Cindy sits on the edge of the bed with Fiona. "Yes, Brother." Cindy kept staring at Fiona who started to spoon the food into her mouth.
"Fio, you better end your relationship with Steven. Until whenever your mother will not agree with your relationship with him. Marry Leon, he's a good man."
"If you don't love her, why are you in a relationship with her? Aren't you guys also planning on getting married before Steven's appearance?" Cindy does not know about Fiona's play with Leon.
"We're just pretending, brother. I had no other choice because my mother kept urging me to marry James" Fiona said.
Cindy's eyes were wide. "Mama will be angry and will soon marry you to James if she finds out about this, Fio."
Fiona puts the plate on the nightstand and holds Cindy's hand. "Please don't tell my mom, brother. I don't want to marry James."
"So, have you decided to reconnect with Steven?" ask Cindy.
Seeing Fiona speechless as she lowered her head, Cindy said again, "Don't you tell me to know her? You want to oppose mama?"
"I have no reason to stay away from him, brother. I can't keep up with your mom's wishes."
Cindy bobbing head. "You can't be with Steven, Fio. Better, end your relationship with him immediately and stay away from him for your good. Your relationship will not be...." Cindy's words came to a halt when Fiona's bedroom door opened and Sarah walked in.
"Cindy, leave us alone" Sarah said, standing in front of Fiona and Cindy.
"Yes, Ma." Cindy walked out of Fiona's room without refuting in the slightest.
Sarah looked at Fiona with a lazy face before she sat down in front of her child. "What do you want to talk to Mom about? sarah asked, folding both hands.
"Ma, please let me out, Ma. I have to work and so do I...."
"Want to see that guy?" sarah continued before Fiona finished her speech.
"Ma, I have to see him."
Sarah walked towards Fiona's bedroom window and looked out. "Mama won't let you meet her until anytime." Sarah was seen frowning when she saw a row of cars lined up in front of her house with a large number.
"Mama can't keep pausing here forever. I also have to work, I can be fired if I don't go to the office for a long time" Fiona said as she walked up to Sarah.
Sarah turned to look at Fiona. "Mama doesn't care. If you want to get out of here and be free like you used to be, you have to promise to end your relationship with her and make her hate you."
"What if I refuse to stay away from him?" Fiona looked at her mother with a serious face.
"So my mom will marry you to James soon."
Fiona. "I don't want to marry her, Ma."
"You'll either stay away from the man or marry James."
"Tok.Tok." There was a knock on Fiona's door. "Come in" said Sarah.
The gentleman went inside and approached Sarah and whispered. "What does he want to talk to me about?" sarah asked, looking at the man.
"Something matters, ma'am. He said he'd force his way in if you didn't want to see him" the man said.
"All right, I'll be there. Tell him to wait."
"Okay, Madam." The man bowed and left.
Sarah smiled cynically at Fiona. "Do you know, that guy came here to meet with mama. He must have begged to meet you."
Fiona immediately walked over to the window and looked down. His heart was racing when he saw Steven standing up and looking at him with a smile.
Fiona turned to face her mother. "Ma, let me meet her, please" Fiona, holding her mother's hand.
Sarah throws Fiona's hand in a rude manner. "will not. If you don't want to stay away from him, then, mama will make him stay away from you and hate you. I'll make sure you never see each other again." Sarah turned and walked towards the door.
Fiona immediately followed her mother. "Wait, Ma. Listen to me first." Fiona held Sarah's hand.
Sarah stopped her steps and turned to look at Fiona with a puff. "What else do you want to talk to your mom about?"
"If you do that. I'll make sure you don't get a penny from my inheritance."
Fiona actually knows that her mother only uses her by telling her to get married so that she can master her legacy. He once said that Fiona was not entitled to the inheritance.
"How dare you threaten my mother." Sarah was getting angry and emotional. "Basic child does not know himself."
"Youth." Sarah slapped Fiona so hard that she blushed her cheeks.
"You have no right at all to that legacy" Sarah said, with a reddened face in anger.
Fiona held her cheek and then looked bravely at her mother. "But, unfortunately papa gave it to me, Ma. That means it's mine. If you want all my inheritance, I will give it willingly but on condition. Never get in the way of my relationship with Steven and never interfere with our affairs again" Fiona said.
