The Second Lead Fate
Seventy

Adhi surprised. You could say very surprised by what Ambar did when they met. The woman boldly put her hand into Adhi's arm. And Ambar did it a little shyly, as if he had just decided to do just that. What the hell's going on? Last night there was no sign that Ambar was going to do anything. They also never talked about the matter of physical contact on the rules of the charade in front of Feli. Is this woman starting to like him? And can't stand to hide that liking anymore. So in London, Ambar started to show it in front of everyone. Slowly the corner of Adhi's lips rose uncontrollably. He felt like today would be fun.

"What do you think of London Ambar?" ask Adhi's mother without looking at her son at all. From yesterday, Adhi actually got some calls from the woman who gave birth to him. But Adhi did not want to lift it. He still has a sense of annoyance because for ten years his mother never contacted or met him directly. It's all just the news that Danial said.

"It's very cold" the woman replied then shook her shoulders slightly. Adhi purposely reached out to hold Ambar's shoulder, and the woman did not refuse him. There is absolutely no rejection that is always shown by Ambar like in Jakarta.

"Currently, are you starting to show some romance here now?" tanya Danial made Adhi pull back her hand.

"Daniel"

"Calm down. Adhi didn't seem to be bothered with that. Aye right? How long have you been in a relationship?"

Adhi looked at Feli and noticed that the woman's face was reddening. Is Feli fever? Then he turned to Danial who was still waiting for an answer.

"just now. We've known her for six years but just became lovers"

"Yes, but how long? Because you look so close now"

"Two months" Ambar replied surprised everyone, including Adhi. The woman should have answered for a longer period of time.

"Just two months?"

"Yes"

"We just met again two months ago. But we immediately formalized the relationship because it can not be separated anymore" added Adhi wanted to improve the atmosphere that became uncomfortable.

"So you've known each other for six years. Split up, then go back and be lovers?" ask Danial again to interrogate. Adhi is very upset that her brother did all this. It was as if Danial wanted to unlock the secrets that were in each person's heart.

"We met six years ago. At that time .. I met accidentally with Adhi. We met again several times before losing contact altogether. Then two months ago, we met by accident. And decided to take the relationship seriously" Ambar replied, stopping Danial from asking again.

But ... This is the first time Adhi has heard Ambar say his name. The woman did not use affectionate calls, but it was enough to make Adhi happy.

"It's good that you've just been in a relationship. You can split up after this" between Adhi's father changed the atmosphere of the breakfast that had been calm.

"You'd better be with Edrea who has a clear family background" his father said, not caring. Adhi glanced at her father for a few seconds.Today Adhi understood why Rea was invited to this morning's meal.

"I don't like your son" Rea said unconcernedly with Adhi's father's cruel gaze.

Adhi turned to look at Ambar, but the woman looked fine.

Ambar bit his lower lip, trying to calm down after receiving a condescending speech from the father of the family Syahreza. In fact, he understood very well that his presence was not accepted here. Because what? Of course because he was just a poor person for this size of an extraordinarily wealthy super family. From the first day he knew it. But still, such words hurt his heart. He tried very hard all this time not to be humbled. And he also set up his own business, without any help from anyone. So, he felt a bit hurt because of the father's words.

"I would love to have two daughters-in-laws from a great family. Not from a family that is not like that" said the father again.this time offending the Ambar family. Of course it made him angry. He has absolutely nothing to do with Boss Kenzo. At all. He's only here to help Kenzo boss get a wife that fits his father's criteria.

"Really, it takes someone with a big heart to meet and talk to you"

"What did you say?"

The atmosphere of breakfast that was originally calm and pleasant because it was done in the open turned even colder now.

"I think you, the entrepreneur who started it all from scratch can appreciate others better. It turns out you're getting old and senile"

"What?"

No one dared to interrupt Ambar's quarrel and the owner of the house.Even the sons who appeared to have offices and positions greater than Ambar.

"I've been working since I was a kid. And I think you do the same. You should know that people like us don't take insults about such families easily"

The father was silent. No more talking to Ambar. Then he went on to eat a morning meal consisting only of eggs and a few pieces of fruit and bread. Longing for Indonesia, chicken porridge and pecel began to appear in Ambar's heart.

"It seems now is the right time to end breakfast" the mother's attempt to break the silence.

"So you work from a small age?"

Ambar stared firmly at the father who had a strong figure despite being old.

"Yes"

"What do your parents do?"

"My dad's a driver and my mom owns a grocery store"

"What work have you done to date?"

"Mentor, restaurant waiter, cut parts in the textile factory, and make souvenirs, invitations, decoration boxes, simple decoration guarantee"

"Despite work"

"Yes, but enough for me to survive until now"

"You have to learn business if you want to earn more money"

"I'll learn"

"good. Learn and work harder for your family!"

"good. I'll do that"

Hearts are relieved now. He no longer felt humbled by this rich and powerful businessman anymore. He felt he could protect his family's self-esteem, and that feeling made him very happy. He then looked towards Boss Kenzo and the guy suddenly stroked his head. So slow and soothing for Ambar. She felt so loved by the man who would never be hers.
