The Pawned Wife
Chapter 1 > Crazy Ideas

"Aarrgghh!" a man shouted because he was frustrated.

"Can't! I have to win and bring all this money!" said a man who was sitting and staring at playing cards and money stacked on a round table.

"Are you sure you'll play with me again? What if you lose? Think about your debt to me!" firmly a man in neat clothes.

"That's impossible! I'm gonna take all this money home. Just look!" the man named Devanka grinned with confidence.

"Well, there's no need to talk too much! Now we'll just start." A handsome man named Akandra smiled wryly towards his co-star.

Akandra Xaquille is a 34-year-old man who is the heir to the Xaquille hotel as well as the owner of the famous Bar under the name of AX Bar. No wonder he always comes to gamble just to relieve his fatigue. It does not matter if the money runs out to gamble, after all, no one has ever been able to beat him.

While Devanka Edelsteen commonly called Devanka is just a poor man who works odd jobs to support his family. True, he already has a wife, in contrast to Akandra who is still single. Although Devanka already has a wife and responsibilities, she is still addicted to drinking alcohol and gambling.

The game begins, both of them are so focused on staring at the cards they hold before showing it to the opponent. After a while later, the game ended and made Devanka again frustrated. He was really upset that he had lost again for the umpteenth time.

"Too confident is not good! Look at! All this money back to me, haha." Akandra loses to Devanka.

"Let's play one more time!" challenge Devanka.

"Don't be stupid! You're out of money. Even you haven't paid off the debt!"

"Don't worry about that, Mr. Akandra. What if I pay for it by mortgaging something?" Devanka stared cunningly at Akandra.

"The storm? What do you think I'm a pawnshop? What do you want to pawn?" ask Akandra while paying attention to the movements of his opponent.

"My wife! Hows it? I will pawn my wife to you" replied Devanka with a slight reassurance to her opponent.

"Suckers! Are you out of your mind already? Why did you pawn your wife? You'll regret it someday!"

"There's no other way than to mortgage my wife. Besides, Mr. Akandra has the right to do anything as long as I haven't made up for it." Devanka raised her eyebrows while grinning cunningly.

"Show me your wife's photo!"

Hearing that, Devanka reached into her pants pocket to pick up her phone. Without wasting any more time, his fingers traveled to the gallery and clicked on a photo of his wife. After that, he showed the photo to Akandra.

Akandra snatched the phone and saw the beautiful woman clearly on the screen of the lower class phone. Without him noticing, his lips smiled cunningly. At that time, she agreed to Devanka's crazy idea.

"agree! I want you to take your wife to my house tonight! Make her as beautiful as possible! Come on," take Akandra to his men.

Before Akandra left, she had already returned the old-fashioned phone to Devanka. After that, he left, followed by some of his men from behind. Meanwhile, Devanka was still silent. He doesn't believe that Akandra would approve of his crazy idea.

Bugh! Bugh! Bugh!

Arriving in front of the house, Devandra immediately bangs on the door of the house very hard. So it did not take long, the door was opened by his wife named Audrey. Audrey opened the door with a soothing expression.

However, Devanka did not take a glance and care about it. He walked in without saying anything. Meanwhile, Audrey could only stroke her chest while saying an Istighfar in her heart.

Audrey closed the door and caught up with her husband who had already entered first. As soon as she reached the living room, she sat down next to her husband and looked at him with a fixed gaze. As much as possible she remained friendly to her husband even though his heart was often hurt by his treatment all this time.

"Mas, what's wrong? Why is your face tangled like this? Is there a problem? Tell me." Audrey stroked her husband's arm gently.

"Place as beautifully as possible! Tonight I will make a mortgage!"

The deg!
