The Steel-Cared Rose
The Plan

The evidence that exists to simply release Sinta from the lawsuit is enough. But Dylan wants to drag Sinta's political and business opponents as well as her in-laws into prison.

"How's my case going?"

"If only to free you from lawsuits it can be. But, I want to drag your in-law business and political opponents to prison. So they can't bother you anymore. Demanding damages so you can recover your responsibilities."

"You mean, I should wait for you to gather even stronger evidence?"

"I'm planning on using Helena."

"Who's Helena?"

"Women who sue your husband on sexual harassment charges."

"Why did you cooperate with that woman?" The look on Sinta's face showed a feeling of dislike.

"Because he could be a key witness in your case."

"I don't understand what this has to do with my case?"

"He was in a relationship with three men, a businessman, a politician and a student."

"Then?" 

"The politician who became Helena's boyfriend is your political opponent. The businessman who became his girlfriend is your in-laws business rival and the student who became his girlfriend is the daughter of a politician who is also his lover."

"Geez!"

"What do you think?"

"How are you planning?"

"I'm going to wiretap through Helena. Of course with court permission so that it can be evidence of trial."

"alright. I'll wait until all the evidence is collected so I can put them in jail."

"They have to take responsibility for their actions. If they don't sabotage it. No problem with your project and your in-laws. Everything went well as usual."

"Hmm, yes.I was in a difficult position at the time. The money that is in my in-laws. Used to finance operations, bills, loans and bank arrears and other purposes that cannot be delayed. If I don't finish, it all stops.  My in-laws also could not afford new loans with the burden of arrears. If all is stalled while not a redundant project? It is strategic and it requires continuity. It would have caused a bigger loss if I hadn't solved it."

"Your decision is not wrong. Because if it stops, there will be more losses. I'm glad you think the same. Dragging the perpetrators to jail. Especially the politician when he took office. Can you imagine what he's gonna do? And so does the businessman? They would both wreak havoc as well as losses on others for the sake of their personal ambitions. The redundant projects you stopped. Made as a place to make money. To achieve their ambitions of achieving power is also wealth. What is important liquid money, the problem of the project is relevant or not? Not their business. Their focus is not on addressing the complexity of the problems of public interest. How can they take money that they can use for their interests and ambitions? The entrepreneur will also hold the public interest hostage to achieve his goals. The project is finished or not. As long as it does not break the law even though it harms the crowd because it is neglected.  They don't care. Penalty they have calculated from the value of the project they will penetrate. Legally maybe they're free but morally and responsibly?"

"The law was made to protect but some people abuse it for their own benefit."

"That's what I mean. When we only pursue formal truths, substantial disregard. It is like a body without a soul. Fraud, misdirection, utilization, theft, plundering and manipulation. Everything can happen. There is no good faith."

"What does my husband think?"

"Dean thinks only of what you think is best. He's thinking a lot about your mental state."

"He changed a lot."

Dylan laughed, "I think so too. Can you still survive here?"

Sinta nodded her head.

"I still need time to gather evidence."

"alright. Its alright. There's a lot I do here, too. It's important that there are no more murders like yesterday."

"You just calm down. There are no more murders. I guarantee you."

"Is it true that someone was killed while I was undergoing clinical treatment at a psychiatric clinic?"

"That's the prisoner who will escape. It's only natural to be shot on the spot by an officer."

"You said there were five people who would kill me. Is it all five?"

"Who did you hear that news from?"

"Almost all the rutan dwellers know it."

"Don't think much. You'll be sick again."

"They haunt me."

"You're haunted by your own mind."

"Suppit. I feel so tense about all that killing."

"Don't forget to take your medicine. You don't seem to be able to take your medicine off."

"I do have to take medication every time I fail to cope with my anxiety. Fear also instability my emotions."

"I brought you this."

Dylan poured chicken porridge and iced lychee tea.

"You made it yourself?"

"I did not have time and made a porridge also not for a moment. I'm also not sure if it feels as good as what you're selling."

"yeah. Best chicken porridge sold by brothers."

"I'm glad you like it."

"This porridge is delicious. The iced tea is delicious."

Dylan laughed at Sinta's face.

"Sometimes you're like an SD kid."

"really? Why so?"

"I don't know either. If it wasn't for your childhood being too happy or vice versa?"

"I am agree with you."

"Did Dean ask me how I was?"

Dylan looked at Sinta in astonishment.

"You why the hell?" Sahut Sinta with a reddened face.

"You see your face for yourself. Like a boiled crab? You yourself seem to be starting to change too."

"Book?"

"Eitherway! I think it's like that. You're like abg!"

Sinta's face was red and Dylan again chuckled.

"Not funny!"

"Yes, it is!"

"No, it isn't."

"Yes, it is!"

"No, it isn't."

"Yes, it is!"

"No…."

"Why are you two?" 

Dean suddenly appeared.

"Where are you from?" Ask Sinta.

"From the eyes down to the heart!"

"Not funny!"

"Funny dong!"

"Ih! Force it!"

"Bodo very!"

Dean gave Sinta a box of her favorite chocolates. A very beautiful flower. He also brought cakes and food.

"I can't eat all this. This is not over yet." Sinta scoops her chicken porridge.

"Save it for lunch or afternoon."

"I'm kind of bored of food in prison."

"Look!"

"Thank you, you've been bothered to bring me food."

"Dylan told you his plan?"

"Helena?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"I think the plan is good."

"But that means you can't get out of here yet. Are you okay?"

"It's okay."

"How are you doing?"

"I'm still doing psychiatric therapy."

"You still have anxiety, sleep and eating disorders?"

"I don't know if I can bear all this or not."

"If everything is done. Leave your career."

"What about your parents? Your parents' companies?"

"I'm their son and have nothing to do with you."

"Who will protect your father's company? You want to be both an officer and a businessman at once?"

"You know you can't be an official and a businessman. I'll concentrate on the company. You don't have to think about everything."

"We'll see later. Because everything is under your father's control."

"Whatchu mean? I can't protect my own wife?" 

Dean looked at Sinta's face with a sigh.

"Your father arranged everything. You married me because of your father. You can't do anything. Especially now? With just a protector, your father's company is still shaken especially if there is no protector?"

Dean's eyes shone a ray of despair. Dylan pat Dean on the shoulder.

"Quiet, bro! Don't think too much. We are now focused on winning this case and imprisoning those who are supposed to be responsible for all this!"

"Yes, you're right!"
