Secrets of Lakefront House
CHAPTER 52. SARAH'S ANGER

Sarah looked at her sister with anger and hatred.

“She was fine without her mother until her body was found. He changed a bit after that. Now he's upset and angry again. I hope the skeleton remains buried and never found. Everything will not be like this. ” said Sarah while looking at her sister Jilena.

"You can't really talk like that, buksn," Jilena snapped. "I don't understand what you're thinking, Sarah."

“Noah would never do such a thing. He is not like his father, he is kind and wise. If she doesn't have the slightest feeling of love for you all this time, she may have married and settled down with a nice girl and have a family of her own now.” sniff Sarah while grunting rudely. Yes, she could not imagine her dream of being able to have Noah ruined because the man only loved Jilena. Sarah didn't even care if the man impregnated her sister and gave birth to a son.

A good girl like you, Sarah? Jilena wanted to say it, but she couldn't say it and made herself that bad.

“If he's innocent, I'm sure his father's great lawyer will find a way to let him go. But if he's guilty, Sarah, he'll have to pay for what he's done. You should stop spending your life missing him.”

That's him—he said it, good or bad. Finally the words were also spoken from his lips after a long time he tried not to say anything.

“Missing him?” Sarah's voice was almost shrill. “Where did you get that idea? So you think Noah's really guilty and is in jail, don't you?:

"I'd rather not say it." Sarah's gaze turned to Ramira once more and her eyes narrowed.

“Mouth Liar.” says Sarah looks at Ramira with hate. Somehow she now hates the fact that her sister is Noah's ex-lover and Noah's beloved girl. Sarah also hates after knowing Ramira was dating Noah and the fact is now that Ramira is Noah's sister. Her dream man.

"Don't blame her, someone should have told me a long time ago" Jilena said.

“What's the difference?” sarah asked in annoyance.

“Perhaps if they do, we will not quarrel and there is no animosity between us.”

"But I want Noah the only Noah I want in my life, but Noah only wants you. Wh why? This is all so unfair." Tears began to spill and descend upon Sarah's cheek.

Jilena tried to be calm. "Did you forget that Noah and I had kids? Before you liked her or even fell in love with her, have you ever thought that Noah was my lover. Regardless of what happened first. Isn't there a chance that we'll be together again for one reason - a child? My son and Noah?"

Sarah was crying. He realized that what Jilena said was right. Can not the presence of a child be a unifier? But, wait a minute. But the boy was not with them. That means there's no way they're getting back together.

It was as if I knew what Sarah was thinking. Jilena said, "I always miss my son. I gave birth to her. Someday I'll find it and take it back, not because of Noah but because of myself."

There was no response from Sarah who heard clearly the words of her sister. Jilena calmed her voice and took a step closer to her sister, hoping she— wouldn't make Sarah even more angry and raging. "Sister, you have to let it go, for your own good. Leapskan Noah, brother."

Sarah turned around and lowered her face, rubbing a finger against her wet cheek. He wiped his tears with a tissue.

Jilena felt guilt and pity for her brother. She loved Sarah very much and seeing Sarah like that made her feel the pain that pierced Jilena and she lightly touched her brother's shoulder. “There are others out there for you, I know there must be—ada great men who will love you and want to build a family with you.”

Sarah raised her face, her watery eyes staring at her sister's face. “But I can't help myself, Jil. I love Noah so much. I always loved her. I can't even glance at another man.”

Jilena wrapped her arms around Sarah and hugged her while crying. He wanted to tell his sister that Noah Arsyanendra was not worth the tears, but there was a time when he also loved that man Noah Arsyanendra— might still be so. Yes, that love is still there for Noah, the father of his son.

"What should I do?" Sarah crying.

“Let it go, my dear brother. It's the only way to move into the future, just let Noah go. Let his shadow and your love for Noah vanish."

In the afternoon, Jilena stopped by the police station to see if a search of the lake house had gathered new evidence for detectives. Upon arriving there, the receptionist immediately called Detective Wira and Jonathan.

They met Jilena in the lobby.

“We did not find anything else that mattered,” Wira said. "Just blood on hardwood boards. Mr. Arsyanendra will surely be angry when he sees that we cut off part of his floor.” He chuckles a little thinking about it.

"Lesti took the sample to a criminal lab to test the DNA and match it with Mariana" Jonathan reported.

"But don't put that in your story first, young lady," the hero warned.

“You can write about the fact that we got a warrant and searched the place, but—not what we found—at least not yet. And nothing about the floor samples we've taken. There's nothing about our discovery yesterday in that house. Do you understand?"

"Yes sir." Jilena replied while giving him a feigned salute. “But I can write about the arrest, buksn?. That's public record.”

"Well, yes, of course," replied the Hero.

"When's the trial?" he asked, his gaze shifting from Wira to Jonathan.

"This afternoon." Jonathan checked his watch. “In about an hour.”

Jilena took a deep breath and then exhaled. It was all out of Jonathan's sight. The man could guess if it wasn't easy for Jilena to remember Noah and the girl had something.

"Are you okay?" jonathan asked who saw Jilena's face change.

"Ahhh..ya yes I am fine." she replied stammered. After all he couldn't lie to her feelings about Noah. Sad and angry, he just wishes Noah wasn't the culprit. If he did, how would I tell my son that his father was a murderer?
