The Charm of the Widow
Where Should I Find You?

Moohan immediately headed to the car garage and boarded one of his sports cars. Turning on the engine and then starting to drive the car left the luxurious mansion that became his residence alone because the mother chose to live in another city. Moohan ignored the question of the housekeeper who opened the gate in a hurry to meet the woman pujaan.

The handsome man drove the car at high speed, splitting the paved road that was still wet because it was raining in the city. Moohan further increased the speed of having to immediately meet with Thalia and convey her heart. He was impatient to find out the reaction of the beautiful woman who had stolen his heart when Moohan conveyed her good intentions.

"May you accept my presence, Thalia," muttered Moohan as her net focused on the highway.

The owner of the city's largest company continues to drive his car, at high speed. Not long after, Moohan's car turns toward a narrow alley of the slum, where Thalia lives. The handsome man looked confused, looking left and right looking for maybe someone he could ask.

Silent and quiet. Not a single person passed through the narrow alley. At three in the morning like this, of course no one was outside the house.

Moohan finally pulled over the car in any place. The man who had a high body posture was immediately down from the car and then recklessly knocked on one of the doors of the tenement in the slum. After a long wait, the door of the house made of wood and looks fragile and opened from the inside.

A woman of Thalia's age appeared from behind the door and she stared in wonder at Moohan. "Sorry, Sir. Who are you looking for?"

"Thalia. Where does he live?" moohan asked, without further ado.

The woman scanned Moohan's appearance, she frowned then. "I'm sorry, if I may know. What's the matter, you're looking for Thalia at this early hour, sir?" tanyanya, curious.

"It's not that I want to interfere in your affairs, sir, but to me, Thalia is family. I don't want anything bad to happen to him" he continued, resolute and apparently suspicious of Moohan.

"I'm Thalia's superior and there's something important I have to tell her" Moohan replied with a serious look.

After thinking for a moment, the woman who turned out to be Maria, then pointed at the house that Thalia occupied. The house was as small and fragile as the house he occupied. "That's, the blue-painted Thalia's house, sir," he said.

Moohan nodded her head. "Thank you" said Moohan, politely. The handsome man rushed towards the house that Maria had just pointed out.

"What's up, huh? Did Thalia do anything wrong until her boss found her here?" murmured Mary, wondering.

Maria put her shoulders back, she was about to go back inside. However, he paused when he found that there was a folded paper right in front of his feet and almost stepped on. Maria then took the paper.

"It's like being deliberately slipped people here" Maria muttered as she unfolded the white paper.

Neutra Maria perfectly rounded, when found there are several sheets of money that are quite a lot in the fold of the paper. Maria hurriedly read the letter. "From Thalia?" Mary's forehead creased deeply.

'Maria, I have to get out of town now. Sorry, I didn't get to say goodbye to you. Thank you so much for your kindness and help so far. You're my friend, my brother, and we'll be like that forever. I hope that someday we can meet again.' Mary's tears were unstoppable reading the letter.

Yes, Maria felt very lost even though between the two of them had only known for three months. But for Maria, Thalia was a good friend and she already considered like a brother. It was Mari who helped Thalia a lot when her mother Aletha had just come to the slum with her red baby.

"What did you say? Gone?" Moohan frowned and Maria then thrust out the letter she had just found on the floor of her house to the stranger.

Moohan accepted it questioningly. The man then hurriedly read the letter. Moohan closed her eyes after reading Thalia's letter.

'Is that how you are to me, Thalia?' Moohan squeezed the letter with one hand until the white paper was shabby out of shape. While his other hand was clenched perfectly. Moohan was angry and disappointed in herself.

"Master, if you are a good person and friend of Thalia. Please, find him, sir. I'm afraid she's why-why. He could not go back to his city because even there, he had already been driven out. He has no one, sir," said Mary.

"Mary. Yeah, your name's Maria, right?" moohan asked to confirm, after reading the letter from Thalia earlier. "Do you know where Thalia came from? Did she ever tell you about her family or her ex-husband?" her scowl, then and Maria shook her head.

"Just a little, sir, because Thalia is covering up her husband's family identity. He only told me that he was an orphan and lived in an orphanage. After her marriage, she lived with her husband and family in the next town" Maria said.

"Three months ago, Thalia's husband's car had an accident and reportedly Alexander died. Thalia was then driven out of the mansion and dumped at the city's border" he continued, with a glazed net. Maria recalled the sad story of Thalia when the first beautiful woman and her baby came to the slum.

"A car accident three months ago? Alexander ..." muttered Moohan as if finding a clue.

"Good, Maria. Thank you very much for the information. I'm going after Thalia, maybe she hasn't gone far" said Moohan, who soon passed in front of Maria.

Before Moohan got into the car that was not far from Maria's house, the handsome man turned to look at Maria who was still sculpting in front of Thalia's house. "Mary. Do you want to work and live in my mansion? You're a good friend of Thalia's, Thalia's brother, and as a person who loves Thalia, I want to thank you" Moohan said, heartily.

Without a second thought, of course Maria nodded her head. Who, after all, refuses to get a job in a rich place and lives in a good place? Moreover, the man had just said that he loved Thalia.

"Grift, Maria. Later my people will come to pick you up," concluded Moohan who then immediately got into his sports car.

"Hopefully you can find Thalia soon, Mister!" exclaim Maria who can no longer be heard by Moohan because the man has started to drive his car to the highway.

'Where should I look for you, Thalia?' Moohan then picked up the phone and immediately contacted her assistant.

"Zack, Thalia's gonna run out of town. Blockade all public transport heading out of town and make sure, Thalia can't leave town!"
