The Secretaries
CHAPTER 31
Zui begins to grin cynically after discovering that his sister's husband is Darren, the man he once wanted to get, but now he already hates her. Before Zaila married Darren, she had told Zui that she had been betrothed to a man of her father and mother's choice. Zui was a fool at first, but now he is interested in it.
“Darren Cadet Argantara, I did not expect we will meet again,” Zui chirped as he crossed his arms.
“Same brother Darren already know each other?” ask Zaila to make sure.
Zui chuckled as he continued to stare at Darren who was just stunned looking at him. “Sure.” He turned to look at Zaila. “You do not know that your husband is eleven twelve with your brother?”
Zaila was confused. “What does Brother Zui mean?”
Zui. “You are very big, anyway,” heck beratai Zaila.
“Zaila, let's go home.” Darren, who does not want his dark temper known to his wife, continues to take Zaila away from there.
“How is your papa?” zui's chirps suddenly made Darren and Zaila who were already standing up to be stunned confused.
Darren turned back to look at Zui. There the woman was seen looking at him with lazy eyes. Zui pointed at the chair with his chin hinting for Darren to sit back to where he was. Darren and Zaila sat down. They started to look at Zui again.
“If your papa news is fine now, maybe later I will have to make him not okay,” Zui told Darren.
“What do you mean?” Darren questioned Zui with a sharp expression.
Zui began to scratch his face, as if he really hated something. “Your father who has made me here,” his ideal makes Darren immediately surprised between trusting and reluctant to believe.
Zui smiled smirked. “Looks Argantara Group business less busy your papa.” Zui suddenly raised his expression. “Mean your papa is looking for another activity by destroying my business.”
“So-”
“Your father reported,” interrupted Zui cutting off Darren's remarks.
Zui looked at Zaila. “My good sister, it's a pity that you got into the wrong place. Soon you will know how sad it is to live with your husband's family,” Zui said ending with a sly smile.
“Where do you know all this?” darren asked Zui to make the woman look at him again.
“You think only you and your family can have secret access?” Zui leaned his face in front of Darren. “I also have,” he said with squeaking eyes.
Zui heaved a sigh of relief while throwing his face away. “Current time is over, you two can go,” he told Darren and Zaila.
Darren and Zaila were silent for a moment looking at Zui's temperament. And then, they left the room without a word. Zui immediately grinned after the departure of Darren and Zaila. The woman immediately got a big plan to avenge all her losses. No one knew about what Zui had thought in the future.

Darren and Zaila have just arrived home. With quick and sure steps, Darren rushed to see his father. “Papa where, Ma?” darren asked firmly at Fiona who was watching TV in the living room.
“Papa you... again.. in the workspace.” Fiona replied hesitantly.
Still with his angry face, Darren then walked towards Wirawan's workroom.
“Darren why?” fiona asked Zaila who had just sat down on her right.
Zaila just kept silent as she looked at her husband who was walking away.
Without permission and any chirps, Darren immediately opened the door of Wirawan's study.
Darren closed the door of the room again, then walked over to his papa. “Why Papa likes to interfere with people's lives? Is meddling in Darren's life not enough for Papa?”
“What are you talking about?”
“Papa did you report Zui to the police?”
Wirawan was surprised. Where does his son know that? Wirawan then threw away his face. “Papa lakanin it to protect the company and you,” he told Darren.
Darren was silent trying to wait for an explanation from his papa again. And Wirawan looked back at Darren. “You remember the vendor you met at Zui Cafe back then? They want to fool us.”
“And the main mastermind of the fake vendor is your friend, the owner of the cafe, Zuilu.”
Darren surprised. So, at that time he almost got tricked? And at that time Shani had helped him to reject the vendor's offer.
“But Papa doesn't need to do that. Papa does not need to destroy Zui's efforts,” denied Darren does not justify his papa behavior.
“Are you stupid? The kid's business is illegal. Very good if he is in jail now.”
Darren's getting stunned. His actions are indeed true if legally and stately. Zui's efforts that violate the rules and norms deserve to be reported to the authorities. But personally Wirawan does not need to do that. It is the same as revenge.
“But what is Papa aware of? Papa lacquered all that just caused trouble and trouble!” darren shouted in the last sentence.
Wirawan glared at his son. “Disrespectful boy,” he said, then swiftly slapped Darren's left cheek.
The atmosphere becomes more runyam. Darren and Wirawan were both silent. Both are equally emotional.
“If so we see what will happen after this,” Darren said, then passed away from the room leaving Wirawan who just stared at him still with widened eyes.

On the other hand Shani was really scared. His lower jaw was gripped by a burly man who several minutes ago broke into his house with 1 other person. Shani cries while holding the stranger's hand.
“Quickly tell me about your relationship,” tell the man who keeps clutching Shani's jaw.
Shani shook her head as much as possible. Her tears had already washed both her cheeks. The liquid was not stopping falling.
“Udah 15 minutes. We can not use the way of violence like gini continues,”, said one other man patted the shoulder of the man who was bashing Shani.
The man also jerked Shani removing his grip from the woman's jaw. Shani was really frightened curled up sitting in the corner of the wall. He continued to cry as unwillingly as he looked at the 2 men who interrogated him earlier.
“Free we force, he won't open his mouth.”
“How to?”
“We unplug first.”
Finally, the 2 strangers left Shani's house. Shani was relieved. But his mind grew more and more afraid of the next events he might experience after all this.
