The Five Billion Wife
Chapter 5. New house

Rio stared intently at the man who had now become the ex-husband of his wife. Rio looked annoyed to see Anwar begin to hesitate to sign the money handover letter. He did not want at the last moment, Anwar would regret and ask Riana to come back.

"Don't tell me you're sorry, Anwar," Rio said coldly.

"Of course not. This opportunity will not come twice" Anwar replied trying to calm his own heart.

Anwar felt a little guilty towards Riana. Riana must have considered herself a cruel husband. Bad and heartless husband. But that kind of money, no matter how many years he had to work, to be able to get it.

"Actually, I don't care. Now, Riana is married to me. Even if you regret it, you won't be able to erase this fact" Rio said trying to calm himself.

"Sir Rio take it easy. If I'm sorry, it won't get this far" Anwar said.

Anwar then signed the files that were ready in front of him. Even though his mouth said no, but the doubt still rested in his heart.

After everything was sorted out, Rio's assistant handed him a suitcase of money that had been in the assistant's hands since. Anwar's face was full of happiness. Anwar never expected that he would be able to hold that much money. Anwar hurried away.

Rio looked relieved to see everything was going as he expected. He immediately asked his assistant to bring him back to the company.

"Yuda, we go back to the company!" rio's orders.

"But, isn't this Mr. Rio's wedding day? Shouldn't Mr Rio be at home?" ask Yuda at once reminding.

Rio looked at his assistant with a wrathful look. Yuda, who saw that, was silent and without saying anything else, immediately pushed the wheelchair towards his car.

Yuda's task is quite heavy, he has to take Rio wherever he wants. He does double work. In addition to working as an assistant in the office, she also works as a nanny for Rio. Yuda works 24 hours for Rio.

Rio worked until the afternoon. And at 5 p.m., he decided to go home. Usually, he would be overtime until 11 p.m. But today, he came home early to meet Riana, his wife.

***

Right now, Riana had been in a very luxurious house. The things in the house, everything was expensive. Riana was amazed at never seeing such a luxurious house.

"Mom Riana, let Bibik take to Ms. Riana's room" said Bik Ijah surprised her.

Riana followed Bik Ijah's steps while occasionally throwing a glance towards kira and right. The aunt walked to a room below. Riana thought her room was upstairs. Maybe because Riana is just a woman who is bought not a woman who is loved.

Bik Ijah opened the door slowly. Although this room is on the lower floor, but the room is quite spacious and comfortable. This room might just be the guest room that Rio had prepared for her. Actually Riana was eager to ask Rio pad, the reason for wanting to marry him to have to do this deed. Buying someone else's wife.

"Please rest. If you need anything, just call Bibik. Bibik was in the kitchen preparing dinner" Bik Ijah said with a friendly smile.

"Yes, Bik. Thank you, Bik. I want to take a shower first, then pray Ashar first" Riana replied kindly as well.

Bik Ijah left Riana who was still looking at the state of this room. He rushed into the bathroom. The bathroom is also pretty luxurious. Bath equipment and towels are also available. Riana took a relaxing bath enjoying the atmosphere of her new home.

The sound of Rio's car, it sounded quietly out there. But Riana did not hear him at all. He was still drowning in his dreams. The car stops in the front yard and Yuda rushes down to help Rio get off.

Yuda helps Rio sit in a wheelchair and takes him inside. Arriving at the living room, Rio stopped Yuda's footsteps.

"Yuda, you go home. If I ever need your help, I'll call you. Your phone should always be active and there should be no reason whatsoever" said Rio firmly.

"Okay, Mr. Rio. Do I need to help you with the room?" ask Yuda.

Rio looked towards Yuda and looked at him annoyedly. If so, Yuda immediately left. Rio has always been. If he doesn't like it, he'll shut up. All that would speak was a look of eyes that looked red and full of anger.

Rio stared at the departure of Yuda then he slowly pushed his wheelchair towards the front door of Riana's room. Ria opened the door of the room slowly. When he saw Riana sleeping on the prayer mat, Rio looked sad. All ages, although in his ID card he is a Muslim, but he rarely practice prayer. Almost never even. When she saw Riana wearing a white face, her heart rippled. It is not wrong that Anwar chose her to make her his wife.

Rio pushed his chair towards the bathroom. His body was full of sweat and he wanted to soak to refresh his body.

The voice of the Adhan Magrib awakens Riana from her beautiful dream. For some reason, even though Riana was in a new place, she felt comfortable enough that she could instantly fall asleep on the floor.

Now it is time to pray. Riana needs to take ablution again. But as he approached the bathroom, he was very shocked to hear the sound of water taps running.

"So there wasn't, why is the sound of water now clear?" riana muttered.

Riana slowly opened the bathroom door and she was even more surprised. He saw Rio, was soaking in there.

"Yes ...." The sound of Riana's scream shocked Rio.

Riana rushed out of the room and met Bik Ijah. Rio who was startled, rushed to end his bathing activity. He tried to get out of the bathroom and changed his clothes.

Apparently, Riana was frightened from seeing Rio in her room. He borrowed Bik Ijah's room to pray and tidied it up after it was finished.

As Riana exited Bik Ijah's room, Bik Ijah asked her to head straight to the dining table. There, Rio was already waiting with his cold face. Riana looked confused and awkward as she stood in front of Rio. He sat down slowly and tried to shake off his awkwardness by taking a deep breath.

The atmosphere felt stiff and silent for a while. Then Rio thrust that piece of paper to Riana.

"Read," Rio said amid the silence.

Riana received the piece of paper with a confused heart. Perhaps this paper was the answer to the question in Riana's heart that had not been answered. Riana began to read the contents of the writing on the paper slowly.

"The main task, keeping and serving all the needs of the husband. Until the smallest thing, which is to drive to the car when it will work." Riana was silent after reading that. "I'm not a stupid woman. I know my duty as a wife. Why should it be clarified again."

"really. But are you sure you will do it for me, sincerely?" rio asked with a word of insinuation.
