Hendrik asks Barli to foward the message to his number and he records the sender's number and the date the message was sent. “What do you think Vania is like? Is she the type of woman who is willing to do anything for money?” Hendrik asked again.
Barli laughed cynically. “Oh yes! She is such a woman. He can do anything for money. Don't be fooled by her sweet looks. He's a snake! Cunning and venomous. She's a very ambitious woman. He and his ex-girlfriend, Avan. The two of them conspired behind my back to take down my business. All for money! You probably checked it yourself, right? Even now it has succeeded in draining the treasure of my late father. Crazy one! Again he managed to deceive the men. He begged us to go to bed with him. How else, that's his skill. After we got caught up in his charm, he put all the seduction and slowly, without us noticing, we reached into our pocket deeply to please him. Not only money, but also job titles, careers! He couldn't have been in his position as he is now if not from seducing every single one of his clients. Cih!.”
“Do you think he can kill? Have you ever gotten a threat from him?”
Barli leaned his back. After being satisfied to spill all his complaints on the Investigator, he began to feel relaxed. He thought back to the right answer. Vania, her love for that woman is real. At least that's how he used to feel. Behind her charms and potent laughter, Vania is actually a strong and independent woman. She may be a seductress, a seductress, and never serious with the men she dates, but can Vania kill? Or even plan a murder?
The beautiful face of Vania came back dancing in her mind. Barli still remembered Vania's hot body taste, her arousing vanilla scent, and her sigh! Good Lord! The way it makes a sound every time Barli touches it, frustrating him.
“No. Vania might be able to betray me by fucking dozens of men. But he's not a killer.”
Barli lowered his face. No matter how much she was with the woman, no matter how much she wanted to see Vania suffer, she realized Vania couldn't possibly go that far. And the real killer, must be caught immediately!
“Can I visit him in jail?” Barley's voice almost sounded like a whisper.
Hendrik patted Barli's shoulder gently. “Yes, of course. You can come at visiting hours. That, if he wills.”
***
Barli vacated his schedule to visit Vania on the weekend. His heart was inevitably, filled to see the woman he had loved. Vania is still beautiful, although her face is not covered by makeup and her clothes are not what she often wears. He was a little more thin and pale, but other than that nothing changed from him. His eyes remained brilliant and looked at him sharply like an eagle.
“Do you want to come here?” ask Vania ketus.
Once knowing that the one who came was Barli, he had wanted to refuse to meet. His mind changed when he saw the man. He's not the Barley he knows. Her hair was combed carelessly, her face was usually tidy, drizzly, looking unkempt. I don't know when the last time he shaved. Barli looked much more miserable, more like a sickle than himself who was behind bars. Vania couldn't bear to ignore him and wonder what wind was bringing him.
“I just want to ask you something.” Barli said agitatedly.
“Quick say you want.” Vania is not comfortable spending too much time with Barley. Barley's past, and also reminds him of Daddy.
“Do you really love Papi?” Barley asked lirih. There was a tinge of grief and despair in his words.
Vania's gaze softened as Barli asked her about Johan. A name that means a lot to both of them. For Vania Johan is her true love, while for Barli Johan is her father, the ideal figure who became her lifelong idol, her hero, her pride. Vania knows how Barley feels about his father.
“Daddy gave me a new life. New insights. He makes me feel proud of myself. Daddy everything's for me, Barli. L loved her. Loved her. I know you won't believe me. I can't prove my feelings either, but-“
“What do you mean?” ask Vania.
“Papi killed, Vania. Someone so vilely had planned the murder. I can't accept this. I need to know who did it.”
“You know I can't possibly do it.”
“Yes, I know you're not a killer. If you could really kill someone, long ago maybe I wouldn't be here.” Barli said as he looked at Vania meaningfully.
Vania gave a small smile in response to Barli's guyonan. “You're right. If I had to kill someone, I would probably rather kill you than Daddy.”
Barli laughed bitterly. “You hate me so much, huh?”
“No, Barli, you are such a bitch, but how could I possibly hate you? What about me? Do you hate me?” ask Vania.
“I hate myself more than you do, Vania. I was too stupid, unable to understand you, until I lost you. Look at both of us now. I never thought you and I would be in this position. I am so sorry to see you suffer. I hope the real culprit can be found soon.”
Barli began to soften and thought of Vania in a different way. He does not want to disappoint Vania to give birth to hatred that blindly can not see the case of the murder of his father more objectively.
“Thank you, Barley. Your support means so much to me. Thank you.”
Vania clasped Barli's hand tightly. Heart's moved. However, Barli is Johan's biological son, whom he is very proud of. He and Barli should not hate each other.
After visiting Vania, Barli directs his vehicle to Liana's house.
Arriving there, he felt strange as the front door opened slightly. Liana is usually very disciplined. He never left the door of his house open like that.
“Liana? Where are you?”
Barley called Liana. His heart was not calm. His premonition said that something bad might happen to Liana.
Since the murder of his father, Barli has been a bit paranoid. It feels like the world is full of criminals and they are after their families.
Barli sharpened his hearing. Slender. No answer voice. Barli stepped cautiously towards the living room and was surprised to find the room in a mess. A heist? “Liana!” He called out to Liana worriedly. His heart is beating fast.
