Still in Thalia's room. Alexander was speechless after hearing the graceful-looking woman's reply in front. He who had briefly soared so confidently, now had to come back to accept the fact that he did not mean anything else to Thalia.
"I know my mistake with you is so great, Thalia. Even a thousand words of apology I say, will definitely not be able to erase my mistakes and my family's abusive treatment of you. To be honest, I really salute you, Thalia. Even though our mistakes were so great, but you didn't punish us like most people do. You can do it." Alexander, who was no longer speaking formally, looked at Thalia deeply.
"I told you earlier, that I'm not that kind of person, Ale!" thalia, once again.
Alexander nodded his head. "Thank you for opening my eyes. Thank you for waking me up, Thalia, Mr. Hendrick." Alexander then looked at Moohan who was still sitting on the sofa and Thalia's husband nodded his head.
"And that makes me even more salute to the two of you because you still think of me as Aletha's real father. Forgive me for not admitting it, Thalia," Alexander said, bowing his head.
Silence, momentarily greeting the room. The three of them did not make a sound. Each one is busy with his own thoughts.
"Can we go ahead with Lucas' case, Mr Thompson?" Thalia's melodious voice, unraveling the silence.
Alexander nodded, resigned. "I'll go along, how good do you think, Madam," she replied back to formal because Thalia also spoke formally.
"In that case, we'll continue the Lucas case investigation!" firmly Thalia and Alexander just nodded their heads.
"That's all I'm trying to say, Mr. Thompson. Please, you can leave my room," gently push Thalia away, leaving Alexander stunned.
In the past, he had full power over this company. In the past, he often said that to his men. Now, his condition turned around. He must hear these words and be driven out of the room that was once his.
The man who had a sharp gaze swallowed the saliva with great difficulty and then moved on. Alexander was about to pass, but he paused when he remembered something. He looked at Moohan.
"Oh yes, Mr. Hendrick. Do you have the time? If you don't mind, I have something to ask you."
Moohan frowned. The man then invited Alexander to sit on the sofa with a gesture of his hand. The number two person in the Thompson group then sat opposite Moohan.
"What would you ask, Mr Thompson?" moohan asked shortly after Thalia's ex-husband sat before her.
"It's about Sarah," Alexander replied. "I've heard stories about Sarah and you from your personal assistant, Mr. Hendrick. But I want to hear directly from you. How well do you know Sarah, Mr Hendrick?" Alexander looked at Moohan, full of probes.
Moohan smiled and turned to look at his wife. The man then waved his hand, asking the wife to come closer. He did not want to talk about other women, making the wife feel uncomfortable.
Thalia approached her husband and sat down beside him. "What's up, Hubby? Didn't Mr Thompson just want to talk to you?" thalia asked with a friendly call to the husband, making Alexander's heart ache.
"Right, Honey, but I don't want to talk about another woman if you're not next to me. I don't want you to misunderstand me, Honey," Moohan replied which made the man before her envious.
'Should have been, I was the one acting so romantic with Thalia.'
Alexander suddenly recalled the first time he had brought Thalia into his office. His newly married wife was so innocent and understood nothing. Thalia's appearance was also very simple. However, Alexander still liked it even though the mother opposed.
Along with accompanying Alexander to work, Thalia was so considerate. "Ale, you've been sitting in that chair since morning. Don't you feel tired? I'm massagein', huh?" haggard Thalia and without waiting for his approval his wife's little hand had already landed on Alexander's shoulder and gave a gentle massage there.
Alexander smiled to himself, remembering the romantic moment. Without him noticing, Moohan looked at him with a frown. Thalia's husband then cleared his throat.
"What did Zack tell you, Mr Thompson?" ask Moohan, then.
"According to Assistant Zack, Sarah, my wife is your former date, Mr. Hendrick. Is that really so?" alexander asked cautiously while glancing at his ex-wife for fear that her sensitive questions would hurt Thalia.
"That's right, Mr. Thompson. Before I knew Thalia I was a jerk!" reply Moohan honestly. The man then recounts his past having many date-friends, including Sarah.
"I never considered them lovers because I never had any feelings for them. It was only when I met Thalia that I understood what love was" Moohan explained. The green-eyed man then hugged his wife's loin, making the male fisherman sit in front of him.
Alexander remained silent. 'So right, Sarah's not as good as you say?Why did you come to me and introduce me to that woman? Mama wouldn't let me investigate who Sarah was first. Is there anything that Mama has hidden?' monologue in the heart.
"Mr Thompson. Is there anything you want to ask?" moohan asked, breaking Alexander's daydream about his wife.
"Yes, Mr. Hendrick. There was still another one," replied Alexander who then looked at Thalia. "Sorry, this is about Mrs Thalia."
"What's wrong with my wife?" moohan asked, who then looked at the wife. While Thalia was raising her shoulders, not understanding.
"After Thalia's departure from the mansion when I had an accident, a few months later I met her in front of the hospital. At that time, Thalia was holding Aletha and I saw her pregnant. Were you married at that time?" alexander asked, staring at Moohan and Thalia alternately.
Thalia let out a long sigh, recalling that chest-stifling moment. While Moohan looked at the wife with regret. Remembering how he had once added to the burden of his wife's suffering.
Moohan shook her head, making Alexander wonder. "Then whose son are you carrying, Thalia?" Alexander looked at the woman who was currently sitting with her back resting on the back of the sofa, while massaging her forehead.
Yes, Thalia feels the question after question that her ex-husband threw out, has dragged her to the sad memories of the past. The past he wants to erase from memory and does not want him to remember back. Memories that will only make her tears spill and her chest feels tight.
"She's pregnant with my son, Mr. Thompson," Moohan said, quickly. "We were not married at the time. I was even looking around for where Thalia was because after the incident, she suddenly left me" he continued.
Moohan then clarified that Alexander's assessment of Thalia was not bad. Moohan recounts from the beginning of her meeting with Thalia. She tells in detail that Thalia really intends to work to support herself and her daughter. The seduction signals that Moohan gave off, were not even able to make Thalia glance at him.
"My assistant's mistake and my helplessness in control from drinking too much alcohol made me lose Thalia" he added, who still looked regretful in remembering the incident.
"As long as you know, Mr. Thompson. Even to that extent, Thalia still loves you very much" he added.
Thalia nudged the husband's arm and then shook her head. Ask your husband to stop opening everything. However, Moohan continued the story because he did not want Alexander to blame Thalia and look at his wife with one eye.
"As long as we make love, even what he calls is your name, Mr ...."
"Enough, Hubby! It used to be because I was stupid and blinded by love! Not anymore, Hubby! I know which ones are sincere and which ones are fake!" Thalia said emotionally.
Moohan hugged his wife, trying to calm Thalia down. "I'm sorry, Honey. I must tell you all so as not to become a wedge in my heart and to have your ex-husband open his eyes that you are only a victim of the slander of his family. I don't want him to look negatively at you, Honey. You're a respectable woman, you're a loyal woman."
While in his seat, Alexander looked down and grew more and more dissolved in regret after knowing the truth that the love of the former was so great. Plus the words of Moohan just now that just slapped her consciousness. 'If I had known from the beginning, I would definitely not have lost you, Thalia.'
