Shadow Wife Mr. Arogan
Sick Hard

Brak!

Shera flinched when the tray she was holding dropped suddenly for the umpteenth time. Somehow an uncomfortable feeling was seeping into the recesses of his heart at this moment. A feeling he could not describe at all.

For a moment the two sliced amber eyes stared at the nanar plate and the food scattered in the chain.

"Shera! Are you trying to bankrupt me?!" A man in a thick mustache slipped into the kitchen when he heard the sound of broken glass just now. He's the boss where Shera works.

"Sorry, Mister. I didn't accidentally, was–"

"Have, don't give much of a reason to you! You're fired!" Without a second thought, the tall and large man fired Shera. Because in this week, Shera has broken the plate three times.

Shera was surprised once again. "Don't Mister, I beg you, just cut my pay, but don't fire me!" he said as he clenched both hands on his chest and showed a clear eye gaze.

The man grinned thinly while dragging Shera out of the kitchen."Nah! Get out now!"

"Mister, I beg you, just cut my pay but don't fire me." Shera tried to hold his boss' hand but, his strength was greatly outdone.

Arriving outside the store, the man pushed Shera strong until the woman fell to the ground.

Bruk!

"Geek!" Shera grimaced softly as the pebbles on the ground scratched his thin skin instantly.

"Curtain! Don't you ever come here again! No severance money for you! Your bag! Get the fuck out of here!" The man throws a small bag right at Shera's head. Then get inside the store as fast as lightning.

Shera was only able to stare at the passing of her boss. Ignoring the strange gazes of the humans passing by in front of the shop, Shera stood up limping while picking up her small bag.

Ringing the phone in the bag, stopping Shera's footsteps instantly. He picked up the flat object and raised the call.

"What?! In which hospital?" Shera was so shocked to learn that her foster mother was in the hospital. After finding out which hospital her mother was in, she rushed off in a taxi.

***

A few minutes' delay. Shera has arrived at the hospital. He immediately asked where his mother's inpatient room was to the medics.

"So, what happened to my mom?" Just entering the room, Shera saw the Doctor was examining his mother who was helplessly rolled over the cage.

"Mistress Lenka's disease is relapsing, she should have noticed the food that went into her stomach" explained the Doctor briefly.

Shera's facial features changed drastically instantly. Denvan frowned strongly he asked, "What does the Doctor mean?"

"Did Mrs Lenka not tell you her illness?"

Shera shook her head strongly.

The doctor began to explain about Lenka's disease, Mama adopted Shera. Lenka has long had stomach cancer and occasionally goes to the hospital. However, for some reason in recent months Lenka has not visited the hospital.

Hearing that, Shera's breath was blocked, not expecting her adoptive mother to hide the deadly disease from her all this time.

Shera Winfred is the son of Lenka Winfred. A few years ago, Lenka and her husband took Shera in an orphanage. However, a year ago, Lenka's husband died suddenly with no apparent cause and left debts everywhere. Inevitably Lenka sold her house and ended up living a life of hanging with Shera.

"Mistress Lenka's condition is critical. The operation must be carried out immediately." The doctor opened his voice again when he saw that Shera was silent at this time.

"How much does the operation cost Doc?" Shera asked as she quickly removed the clear liquid flowing down both of her cheeks.

The nominal that the Doctor mentioned just made Shera stunned, her tongue is very difficult to move right now. How can he get 80 million, while the money to eat only he and his mother is very mediocre. Plus now he doesn't have a job anymore.

Shera turned her gaze towards Lenka who looked deathly pale. Look at the woman who has been nurturing and giving affection all this time.

Without saying a single word he slowly walked out of the room.

"How's this? Where should I look for that kind of money" Shera murmured while leaning her head against the hospital wall.

Wanting to ask for help from his adoptive mother's family, Shera obviously did not dare because last time when he wanted to borrow money to pay for a rental house. His adoptive mother's family even kicked them out, insulted and berated them and even said they didn't have to come there anymore.

Shera is getting sad. In his grief, his views somehow met a woman who was known when he was a dozen years old. A few meters away, a woman with blue sea-blue neutrality stepped slowly, approaching Shera.

"Shera?"

Shera nodded her body. He knew very well who the woman before him was now, the richest and powerful person in this uncle sam country. Despite her wealth, Lily is very kind and friendly. "Yes, Aunty Lily."

Lily hugged Shera tightly for a moment then loosened her embrace."Oh my God, I think who I have not seen you in a long time. What are you doing here? Why do you look sad?" tanyanya while looking at the appearance of Shera that changed drastically not like before. At that time Lily had heard rumors about the Winfred family who fell into poverty.

"Mama's in the inpatient room, Aunty. He's very sick, I'm confused, how to get the money to pay for his operation" Shera said.

Lily was shocked to hear it. However, in a split second his face changed."Shera, how much does your Mama's operation cost?"

"About 80 million Aunty."

"Aunty can give you money, as long as you want to marry Aunty's son" Lily smiled meaningfully.

Shera's two eyes blinked quickly, not expecting Lily to give him a pretty strange offer, he said.

Shera was glued to the spot for a moment.

"Shera, sorry if Aunty is too involved, Aunty knows how you and your Mama are, decide now Shera."

"But Aunty, why should I? And how could I marry the Aunty kid I didn't love and never met" Shera later said.

"Shera, you don't need to know what Aunty's reason is, believe me Aunty, love will come with time, you just answer yes or no?" Lily gripped Shera's hands instantly.

Shera did not immediately reply, her heart was in a dilemma now. Marriage is a sacred thing, in which he and his partner will swear before God, binding a sacred promise to live on.

The sound of alarm from her Mama's room, distracts Shera and Lily all of a sudden. Both of them quickly stepped into the room

However, their footsteps came to a halt, as medics asked them to wait outside alone.

From the glass divider between the room and the hallway, Shera can see her mother is being given help by medics. In part of his body is attached to a pacemaker (defibrillator).

"Shera, look at your mother, pity her. He's critical right now, how, are you willing to accept Aunty's offer?" Lily touched Shera's shoulder from behind.

Without thinking again, Shera nodded quickly. Hope the choice he made can save his mother's life now. A woman who has always loved Shera as much as her biological child. It was time for Shera to return the favor to her foster mother. He would do anything just for his mother.

Hold on Ma

Shera touched the room's divider, and without permission, a clear liquid dripped again in her eye patch.
