The Charm of the Widow
A Place to Take Shade

Zack moved quickly, according to the boss's orders. Moohan's enormous influence in the city, making Zack had no trouble blocking all public transportation that would go outside the city. It made it easier for his men to check one by one mode of transportation and make sure that no woman was sought by the boss there.

However, everything the TMC boss did was too late. Fifteen minutes ago, the fast train carrying Thalia and the princess had just departed from the station. Yes, the mother-of-one decided to get out of town by train. Thalia was about to go to a city far enough away from the city that had inflicted a wound on her heart.

Along the way, Thalia continued to ponder. He thought about what steps to take later once he arrived at a new place and it was certainly foreign to Thalia. The beautiful woman calculated in her heart how much money she currently had from the hard work of almost three months in Moohan's company.

"It looks like my money will be enough to pay for a small one-year stall rental. If I can get a kiosk, I'll just open a cake shop. I don't want to work outside and leave Aletha in daycare anymore" muttered Thalia who chose to stay awake because she didn't want to be cheated like she used to be.

The helper who was thought to be really sincere and a good person, apparently had the heart to take a chance when Thalia fainted. His precious treasure disappeared, in the blink of an eye. Luckily, Thalia still has money given away from her personal driver so she can survive.

The fast train continued to run, away from the city where Moohan was. The handsome man was visibly frenzied after nearly an hour of waiting and Zack reported that his search results were nil. Thalia can no longer be found in public facilities.

"Have you checked everything, Zack? Terminals, stations, and airports?" fussy Moohan, make sure and across there Zack answers quickly.

"All that, Boss, and Thalia we didn't find."

"Alright, to my mansion now. There's something we have to investigate" Moohan said, then.

After a while of waiting, Zack came rushing over. Moohan's personal assistant's sweat until it was pouring out even though it was still very early morning. It seemed, he had run down from the car because he did not want to make the boss angry with his delay.

"Have you got the information about Thalia like I asked you last night?" scowl Moohan when Zack just got to his study.

"No chance, Boss, because the Boss told me to find Thalia earlier," Zack replied, honestly.

Moohan let out a long breath. The handsome man then got up from his big chair and moved to sit on the sofa. Zack followed and sat there.

"Find out about the car accident that befell a man named Alexander in the next town," Moohan and Zack immediately move quickly to open his laptop.

Zack looked so serious with the laptop screen in front. While Moohan tried to close her eyes to rest her eyes that kept awake from last night. Not long after, a smile rose on Zack's lips as he had already found what the boss wanted.

"Boss, here there is indeed news about the accident that experienced Alexander Thompson, one of the rich businessmen in his city. However, only information about the car is published. Boss can see this for himself." Zack showed a picture of a luxury car owned by Mr. Thompson in very bad condition.

"There is no news about the condition of the passengers, how?" moohan asked with a frown.

Zack shook his head. "They're important people, boss, just like you. Of course the Alexander family deliberately hid the news about the owners of Thompson Group because they did not want to make the stock price fall," Zack alleged, justified by Moohan with a nod of the head.

"Then why did Alexander's family expel Thalia? Moreover, the woman is pregnant and already want to give birth?" Moohan asked who she was referring to.

A moment of silence was created in Moohan's study. The handsome man let out a long breath. The shadow about Thalia flashed back and it made the TMC boss feel very guilty.

'You must be very sad, Thalia. I'm sorry, I'm sorry I didn't know anything about you.' Moohan let out a heavy sigh.

"If you look at the condition of the car that is shuffled in the front, especially the steering wheel, it seems unlikely that the driver and passengers sitting in the front can survive, Boss," Zack said, unraveling the silence.

Moohan turned around, looking at the assistant. "We're going to that town now!" take Moohan who rushed out.

Zack who could never resist the wishes of his boss was immediately following Moohan's steps. They both get into Moohan's sports car and Zack immediately drives the car out of the mansion to head to the next town. The town where Thalia came from.

The sun was directly overhead when the fast train carrying Thalia and the baby arrived at the station. The mother-of-one immediately went downstairs and then looked for a place to eat to fill her stomach. A small food stall outside the station is chosen by Thalia.

He seemed to be eating very greedily because since yesterday afternoon, Thalia's stomach was only filled with two pieces of fresh bread. Lucky Asinya still continue to produce and Aletha is not fussy even though the production of Asi that came out is not much. The tiny baby seemed to understand that the mommy was fighting for their lives ahead.

After eating, Thalia asked the owner of the stall there might be stalls around the place for rent. Fortunately it seemed to be siding with Thalia because not far from the station area, there was a row of new stalls rented out. Thalia headed straight there to see him.

After a five-minute walk, the mother and baby arrived at the spot the shop owner had pointed out. Thalia immediately headed to the marketing office at the very end of the small shopping area. There, there are some stalls that have started to open and look quite crowded visitors.

"Welcome, Madam. Please sit down," said a beautiful woman as soon as she saw the presence of Thalia in her office which although small, but looks very comfortable.

Can we help you, ma'am?" tanyanya then after Thalia sat before her.

"I'd like to rent a kiosk. How much does it start, Miss?" ask Thalia.

The marketing office employee then gave a brochure to Thalia while explaining in detail, complete with all the facilities available. "So, if the Madam wants the cheapest and there is already a bathroom inside, the Madam can take the smallest size, which is twice the size of four meters," the light of the woman while mentioning the price per year.

A moment Thalia weighed. The price of the kiosk was quite high compared to his estimate earlier. Thalia then counted in her heart. Is it enough money to pay rent for a year? Not to mention, he also had to buy all the equipment to make cakes, as well as shop for raw materials.

"How, Madam?" ask the woman, making sure. "The Kiosk I offered was just one unit and happened to be a very strategic place, at the end of there near the fork," The beautiful woman pointed towards the stall in question and Thalia nodded confidently later.

"Good, Miss. I'll take the stall." Thalia sighed with relief, then.

'We've got a place to shelter and a place for mommy to open a business, son. Hopefully nothing else disturbs our lives here.' Thalia looked at the princess who woke up and then kissed her daughter's chabi cheek, with anxiety.
