THE HUMILIATED SUBSTITUTE HUSBAND
CHAPTER 18: WHAT ARE THE CHARACTERISTICS OF GETTING PREGNANT?

At the police station, Richard had just finished making a report on the sacrilegious behavior experienced by Debora. Richard also pointed out the location, he was sure that the two men who were beaten were still helpless.

“Thank you, report, Sir. We will immediately process the case,” said a police officer shaking Richard's hand.

“Sama-sama, Sir. I am ready to be called anytime to be a witness!” richard returned the handshake.

Richard heaved a sigh of relief, the smile on his lips unraveled. “Kek, I've been a good person, ‘kan? I'll always remember Grandpa's message,” Richard murmured considering Grandpa Teddy—a very meritorious old man in Richard's life.

‘If you do not find a good person in this world, then you must be able to be that good person! If you do not find happiness, be a source of happiness for others. Make your life useful to others, Richard.’

Richard massaged his forehead while closing his eyes, recalling Grandpa Teddy's advice. The old man who played a big part in Richard's life changes. Living in simplicity, not thirsting for praise, then ignoring the judgment of others, because only God has the right to judge the bad of someone. Although it wasn't easy at first, it took two years for Richard to control himself.

Two pretentious thugs in power are now immediately snatched up by officers. They must remain in prison until a trial is held and a verdict is handed down. While they were detained, police also went to the hospital to ascertain the condition of the victim.

The arrival of the authorities makes Rendra wonder, because he has not reported anything about the condition of his daughter.

“Good afternoon, Sir! We have received a report from the police. That Deborah's sister has been abused on Jalan Kembang,” said one of the men in uniform after finding Debora's room.

“True, Sir. Where do you know? We have not made any reports?” raffle is confused.

“The reporter was a young man. If not mistakenly named Richard, confess his brother-in-law. He is also willing to be a witness because while on the location, Mr. Richard who beat up the perpetrators,” said the police.

Rendra and Sabrina looked at each other. Their faces changed. Rendra rubbed his face violently. His chest rumbled violently, already accusing his non-existent daughter-in-law. But it turns out that the man is still kind enough to fully investigate the case.

“The conditions are still not stable, sir. It seems that for questioning he is not ready to answer,” Sabrina said after being stunned for a while.

“Good, then we wait after his condition recovers. We need the victim's testimony to pass a verdict on the perpetrators. Immediately contact us,” said the police then say goodbye.

“Pa?” call Sabrina to touch her husband's arm.

Rendra was still silent, her mind was confused and filled with anxiety. “We go in first,” invite Rendra to ask to enter waiting for his daughter.

“Nona, are you okay?” asked a new ART approaching, surprised to hear Velyn's scream.

Velyn frowned so deeply when she saw a stranger in her house. Friendly, the woman introduced herself as the new ART at Richard's behest.

“Then where is Richard? Do you know where he went?” velyn asked to stand up. Hopefully, he hears a satisfactory answer.

"Sorry, Miss. He went along with the Miss of the family. I think, Sir also followed,” said ART.

Velyn let out a disappointed sigh, without saying anything else stepping unsteadily out of the guest room. He got out and took Richard's suit in the car. Then go back to his room. “You'll be back ‘kan later?” velyn murmured down while deeply inhaling Richard's suit.

The day keeps changing. It's been a week since Richard didn't come back. Velyn was aghast from her sleep as the sun slid through the room curtains to pierce through her eyeballs. Looking at the sofa, the place Richard used to sleep.

Velyn rubbed her eyes, when she saw Richard smiling at her. Squinted his eyes to clarify his view. “Richard?” call the woman in a soft voice. Velyn hurriedly jumped out of bed and sat on the sofa. But, Richard's shadow suddenly disappeared just as he was about to touch it.

Tightly back to stab her heart, a gray Sunday for Velyn. He only spent time curled up on the long sofa of his room while using Richard's suit as a pillow. Velyn felt her phone on the table, opened the lock quickly, there was no message or call from the man. Though almost every hour Velyn tried to contact him, although not connected at all.

“Richard, where are you!” the woman cried bitterly.

“Villa?!” Velyn was aghast as she recalled the place they had been to. “Yes, she's definitely there!” Velyn hurried to her feet, half running towards the bathroom to clean up. In his heart cursed himself for remembering the place.

Debora's condition has not fully recovered, her parents are still focused on her daughter's recovery. Moreover, Debora is currently scared when she meets a stranger.

Velyn was very excited down the stairs, “Bi, if mommy and dad ask, say I have work outside the city yes,” Velyn message on one of his ART.

“Good, Miss. Careful,” reply ART it smile sweetly.

Waiting for a while, finally the online taxi order Velyn came. He left immediately on that day. I can't wait to get there soon.

Unfortunately because of the weekend, making Velyn have to be stuck in traffic. The trip took him eight hours. Velyn arrived at the villa at dusk had changed the night.

“Excuse me! Uncle! Auntie!” call Velyn knocking on the door impatiently, then followed by pressing the bell.

“Eh, Velyn! Want another vacation, huh? Where's richard?” bi Conie asked after opening the door. Celingukan looked for someone behind Velyn's back.

Velyn's lips that had smiled widely, suddenly docked back. His body took a while. “So, Richard is not here, Bi?” asked Velyn in tears.

“No, Velyn. The last time you were here was the same time you were. Come on in first,” invite Bi Conie who saw Velyn exhausted.

Squeezing, Velyn's tears fell back on her cheeks. Inevitably, he had to spend the night there first. ‘Who knows I can know information about Richard from Uncle and Aunt,’ Velyn's inner self wipes away her tears, and hides the grief that is afflicting her.

Early in the morning Richard was sitting in his great chair. His company was about to fight for a large tender, Delon claimed not able to handle himself. So inevitably Richard had to intervene. In addition, Richard had to look at the condition of the grandfather.

Deliberately turn off the personal phone, so as not to be disturbed by a few problems that hit him. He just turned on his phone for business. Velyn and her family, of course, did not know the number. So that he felt safe from the reach of his wife's family for a while.

“Delon! To my room for a while,” calls Richard through the intercome connected to his assistant.

Before long, Delon appeared in Richard's room. He entered after being invited by the boss who was sitting seriously staring at the documents before him. Delon was worried, afraid there was a problem in the report he gave to his boss.

“Sit!” richard's orders moved the ballpoint pen in his hand.

“Good, Master!” sahut Delon immediately sat his body firmly. Be prepared to hear orders if there is something that he must revise.

“Delon, how are the characteristics of pregnant people?” asked Richard turning his gaze from the documents on the man sitting before him.

“What, Sir?” Delon made sure his ears didn't hear wrong. His face was filled with shock, his mouth gaping wide.

“You are deaf what?” richard's voice tightened his gaze.

“Ta .. but I just want to make sure again your question, Sir. Did you ask, how are the characteristics of pregnant people?” Delon repeated the question hesitantly.

“Hmmm!” Richard propped up his chin with his hands on the table. Hoping for his all-round assistant, he answered the question he had kept all by himself from the beginning.

Delon's eyes widened even more, "You're pregnant, Mister?!” peekik Delon blaring.
