The Five Billion Wife
Chapters 2. Letter of agreement

Riana had to wait for her husband who had to be hospitalized for two days. Although his life could still be helped, but the blood that came out was quite a lot. So Anwar had to do a blood transfusion.

At this hospital, Riana promised Anwar to comply with all her requests. Anwar is afraid that Riana will change her mind again, before the wedding day arrives. Therefore, Anwar deliberately asked his friend who is a lawyer, to make a letter of agreement.

Before signing the agreement, Anwar had dropped three talaqs to Riana, witnessed by two friends Anwar and a lawyer.

Riana's tears dripped slowly and she tried to stay firm even though her heart was hurt deeply. He tried to convince himself, that his match with Anwar ended up here.

Although Anwar promised to make up for it back, Riana could not hope for much. Something that has been released, is it possible to be taken back.

After dropping three talaqs, Anwar asked Riana to sign a letter of agreement. It contained Riana's willingness to marry her Boss without coercion from anyone. With a stampede and the signature of Riana and two witnesses. Her husband had really taken everything into account.

"Riana, we're not husband and wife anymore. My lawyer will take care of the divorce papers officially. And after your iddah period you're over. You will soon be married to my boss" said Anwar, who is now an ex-husband.

Riana's heart ached hearing all that. He won't cry over what happened. Because God will not give trials and tests beyond our ability. But, anyway, he was heartbroken.

"Mas, may I know, how much could it cost you to let me go?" riana asked sadly.

"Five billion. Your price is very high, so you don't have to feel inferior. Where there are women who are not virgins valued that much. Widow again. My boss is a fool" Anwar replied proudly.

"You're right, Mas. That guy is stupid. Giving such a price only to married women. At that price, he could buy a virgin, the most beautiful girl in the country. Not a widow like me" Riana said withstanding her heartache.

Riana only realized that her ex-husband was so blind. But he never regretted ever loving Anwar. It's just, he felt, he's the one who misidentified people. The man he thought was perfect, turned out to be worse than a pimp.

This precious experience, Riana will always remember her entire life. Although he did not know, how was the life of him that would come along with a man he did not know at all.

"Dec, I'm sorry. I had to do this. They have debts that they have to pay off. Otherwise, Mas will be put in jail" Anwar said trying to attract Riana's sympathy.

"What debt, Mom? And to whom do you owe?" riana asked in shock.

Anwar started making up stories. He is stuck gambling online and owes his Boss a debt. At first he won, but after that, he lost even hundreds of millions of rupiah.

"It's all my boss' fault. If you marry him, you have to be careful. He forced me to sell you to him. Does he have a grudge against you?" tanya Anwar tries to make Riana hate her Boss. At least, if Riana hated her Boss, even though they were married, Riana would not be touched by her Boss. Actually she was also not willing, if the beautiful Riana, was touched by another man.

Riana's heart suddenly shrank. What Anwar said, could be all true. There was no way the man would be willing to spend that much money just to marry her. He must have had a wicked purpose. A vendetta? Could be.

"Riana, I hope you can take care of yourself. Don't let him bully you when you're his wife" Anwar said with a sly smile.

Anwar is allowed to go home. While waiting for the divorce process to be completed, Anwar asked Riana to stay in this rented house. Since Riana has no one else in this world, and she also has no idea where to go, Riana accepts Anwar's request.

The divorce papers had come out sooner than Riana thought. Just waiting for the iddah period alone, Riana will undergo marriage with the man. The ill-shadows and harsh treatment of her future husband haunts her every night. Every night, she has nightmares and wakes up in the middle of the night. Riana felt very tormented.

After getting the divorce papers, some people came to Anwar's rented house. They were apparently his boss' man.

"Sir Anwar, the boss has prepared an apartment for Ms. Riana. The boss felt that you didn't deserve to stay together. You are not a married couple anymore and there is no reason to stay in one house. It's best that Ms. Riana stay in a place that has been prepared by the Boss" said one of them.

"Are you really the boss' man?" anwar asked in disbelief.

"good. We will contact the Boss, so that you can trust more, "the other replied.

One of them made a video call with their Boss. They showed their boss's face to Anwar.

["Hallo Boss, sorry," said Anwar nervously.]

["Anwar, you should know that you can no longer stay home. You take Riana to the apartment I bought for Riana. Or our deal is off" Rio threatened, his boss.]

["Don't. Okay, I'm going to take Riana to that apartment" Anwar replied in a panic.]

The video connection was cut off. Anwar looks anxious and frightened if his agreement with Rio will be cancelled. His dream of getting rich is gone.

Although a little unwilling, Anwar asked Riana to go with Rio's men. To eliminate Riana's fear, Anwar will take Riana to the apartment that has been prepared for her.

Riana started to put all her belongings and packed into bags and cardboard boxes. It is not much, because Riana rarely buy new clothes and rarely buy other personal needs. He was satisfied with simplicity. As long as she could be together with the man she loved, Riana was already quite satisfied.

After everything was settled, Riana left the house that had already given her many sweet memories. Memories she will never forget. And this house has also given him bitter memories. Memories that he would never forget in his entire life.

Riana begins to hate Anwar and begins to realize, however she must stay alive and must fight to achieve her own happiness. Happiness is not created by others, but happiness comes from our own hearts.

As long as I sincerely accept my destiny, happiness is not a difficult thing, Riana.
