THE NEGLECTED PEARL FOR ADAM
CHAPTER 77. PATIENTLY WAITING

The doctor came to check Papa Hendrawan's condition and told him he had been allowed to go home, but still had to come for control three days later.

Mama, Raja and Muti were grateful, then they got ready while waiting for the nurse to give the medicine.

Adam helped Papa Hendrawan get out of bed and offered to drive him home.

Papa gladly accepted the offer because he still wanted to talk about business with Adam.

After helping Papa get into the King's car, Adam offers Muti a ride in his car.

At first Muti refused because he felt bad for the in-laws, but because of permission from Papa Hendrawan, Muti finally accepted Adam's offer.

Two cars drive to Hendrawan's residence, Adam is glad he still has a chance to get close to Muti.

"They love you so much, Mommy?"

"Yes, that's what keeps me going. I can't hurt them."

"But when?"

Muti was silent, he did not know until when he could survive. Adam who saw Muti moody, then diverted the conversation, "Did Muti become working in the company of Mr Hendrawan?"

"Not yet, I'm not ready. I don't have any experience with Mas's business, after all I'm just an SMU graduate."

"Why you do not continue your studies, marriage is not a barrier to learning" said Adam.

"There's a plan, but I still have to ask permission from the Sultan."

"Hemm, I'm so envious. It's lucky if I can get a wife like Muti's mother."

"Mas Adam could definitely get a better woman than me" Muti said as he looked at Adam.

"No Ma'am, the name Muti has been imprinted here" Adam said as he pointed to his chest.

"I'll wait until you're tired and give up on a marriage that just makes Mommy Muti unhappy. You can hold my words."

"But when did Adam want to be like this? I'm not a girl you know, I'm a wife of people and I can't give certainty to Mas Adam!"

"I will be patient, until the Sultan divorces Mbak or Mbak Muti who asks for a divorce. I don't care despite the status of the widow's mother. I want Mbak, not because of his status but because I love Muti's mother."

Muti fell silent, he did not dare to give hope to Adam, despite the feeling of happiness in the recesses of his heart, because it turned out that there were still men who truly loved him regardless of status.

The two fell silent, struggling with their feelings, and Muti took his cell phone and he saw a lot of missed calls from Sultan and Elena.

Muti ignored the Sultan's call, he was not ready to face the Sultan's anger, then Muti chose to call Elena back.

When her call was received by Elena, Muti asked, "What's El? my phone was in my bag and the volume of my phone was reduced so I didn't hear any incoming calls from you."

"Sir, we are close to home. Dad and mom said to Muti's house first, just visited besan."

"I'm on my way to deliver Papa and Mama El, you better follow me here. We will both go back to my house. Anyway you guys should stay tonight."

"Oh, does that mean your father-in-law is out of the hospital?"

"Yes El."

"Well Ma'am, I asked Dad first huh?"

"How's Dad, we go to Dad's house first or we wait at Muti's house?" elena asked without turning off the call from Muti.

"Yes El, let's go to the house" replied Dad.

Hendrawan and Adam's family have arrived home. Papa, Mama and the king invited Adam to come in. While Muti helps Papa to sit down, according to Papa's request.

Adam was amazed to see the splendor of Hendrawan's residence, he secretly acknowledged the greatness of this old man before him who had succeeded in building his business empire.

"Please sit down, son!" papa Hendrawan.

"Mut, please ask auntie to prepare a drink for Adam's son. Papa asked for mineral water only," papa Hendrawan said.

"Well Pa, just a minute, Mas" said Muti.

"Ja, you're having a conversation here, you've got a lot to learn from Adam's son. You must immediately accompany the Sultan in the company. Cancel your plans to take a master's degree, please Papa Ja. The company needs you right now, because your brother can't be counted on anymore."

"Yes Pa" said the King who did not dare to argue for the health of the Papa. He had intended to cancel his studies in taking a master's degree in order to help manage the company before anyone else destroyed the glory he had built.

Then the King, Papa and Adam were engrossed in business talks until Muti came with a drink.

"Lho, where's aunt Mut? Why did you bring drinks?" ask Mama.

"It's okay Ma, auntie is preparing and cooking food for tonight."

"Son Adam had dinner here!" invite Papa.

"Sorry sir, I have not been able to accept your offer, tonight I have promised to attend a thanksgiving event with friends."

"Oh, what a pity, son! I hope next time you can come again to eat with us here" said Papa.

"Yes, there are still many things I want to ask Mas Adam" said the King.

"It was fun talking to Mas Adam. I hope one day we can work together" said the King again.

"Thank you King, I'm also glad to meet you. And, of course, I'm happy if our company can work together later as when the company's leadership is still in your hands."

As they chatted while enjoying the drink Muti brought, there was a sound of greetings from outside. It turns out that Mom and Dad and Nayla have arrived.

Muti hugged the mother, then crucified the Father's hand and also hugged Elena. Muti invited his parents to sit with Adam and Papa.

"Lho, is Adam here too?" ask Dad.

"Yes Mr. Danu. How are you, sir?"

"Alhamdulillah be healthy Son!"

Then Mr. Danu and Mother approached the besan, they asked each other for news.

Muti hurried to the kitchen to get a drink for his parents. With the help of aunt, Muti prepared it complete with snacks.

They were more fun chatting, Adam felt included in the family that was welcome to him.

Meanwhile, Elena who was still curious why Adam arrived at the Sultan's family home, immediately approached her best friend.

"Sir, how did Adam get here? I see it looks like he's close to Kak Sultan's family?"

Then Muti explained about Adam's long-standing relationship with Papa Hendrawan, long before he entered this family.

Laughter filled Hendrawan's residence, while in Muti and Sultan's private house, her husband was on a rampage because Muti did not also give news.

Sultan was stressed, especially in addition to the phone call from Clara who repeatedly because she ignored him.
