The Tainted Bride
Chapter 41. Slander

After finishing changing clothes and makeup Olivia immediately followed Jack William down.

When Olivia reached the bottom floor, Elves who saw herself immediately followed.

"Where are you going?" she asked Melanie to see her granddaughter following Olivia walking towards the main door of the house.

"God! Oma don't be noisy, Elves wants to go with Mommy Olivia."

The clueless Melanie could only nod and watch over her granddaughter with her tails.

"Where else are they going? It's been a night too" Melanie protested. However, he continued to continue his steps towards the kitchen to ask for a warm drink made by his assistant.

"Are you ready?" jack asked when Olivia got in the car.

"Not yet Daddy" Elves said and was seen trying to open the car door.

"El why are you coming?" protest Jack.

"Elves can't come with mommy? Then why can daddy come?"

Olivia smiles at the innocent question from her foster child while Jack looks patted the eel.

"Keep Elves thinks this car will move if no one drives?"

"There is a driver who can drive mommy. Don't-don't Daddy want to snatch mommy Olivia from Elves huh!" The boy clasped his chest while smiling cynically.

Jack could only shake his head.

"Keep what you want?"

"Follow!"

Jack looked at Olivia and the woman nodded.

"Well let's go in!" jack and Elves orders a happy smile and enter when the car door is reopened by Olivia.

An hour later, Olivia reached Reza's house.

"I just got here" Jack said as Olivia got out of the car.

"Yes sir, thank you for delivering me."

"Together."

Olivia stepped towards the door. However, Elves caught up with Olivia.

"El no, you can't come with Mommy!" jack and Elves were not listening.

"That's Ma Olivia. Yes that's how he is every day, running from morning to evening." The sound of Reza's voice from inside the house made Olivia stop her steps for a moment.

Wati opened the door.

"Assalamualaikum, Ma."

"Wa'alaikumsalam warahmatullahi, where have you been? Why come home almost this night?" Wati immediately charged Olivia with questions. From the look on her in-laws face, Olivia knew that Reza must have complained.

"From Ma's work," replied Olivia casually. He knew that if explained later, Wati would understand the situation. Her father-in-law was a good person and her mind would be more open than Reza himself.

"Work design? Isn't Reza already meeting your needs?"

"Ma, Mas Reza's ...."

"His salary is small Ma, yes my salary is small so it is not enough to meet Olivia's needs" Reza said.

"Jeez Oliv, just keep your money until Reza's salary is not enough to meet the needs of both of you."

"That's not true Ma, what Mas Reza alleges is not true. I was forced to work because Mas Reza did not give a penny to spend on Olivia," Olivia denied Reza's explanation.

"It's up to you to believe or not in Reza, but you can ask yourself the neighbors around here, it's been a few days since Olivia didn't come home and Reza cleaned the house and cooked by herself."

"Is that Olivia?"

"But Ma, it's because ...."

"What I am asking is it?!" snapped Wati and Olivia jumped in shock seeing Wati suddenly turn rough like that.

"Yes right," replied Olivia firmly.

"I thought so." Wati seemed to shake his head.

"But it was Olivia forced because Mas Reza kicked Olivia out."

"Lying Ma, that's just an excuse. Where's the evidence that I kicked you out?"

"I have no proof, but by Allah Ma, I swear Mas Reza really kicked me out because he didn't want me to ban him from having an affair with Meilin."

"Shut your mouth, Olivia! If you're cheating don't throw your mistakes at me!" shout Reza.

"But that's the truth, Mas, you've been having an affair with my own brother!" olivia.

"Do you have any evidence to accuse me of that?"

"I don't have any evidence, but I have a lot of witnesses. If Mama doesn't believe Mama can just ask Ma to Mas Reza's office mate, they all know the scandal of the affair between Mas Reza and Meilin."

"Hmm, if you ask that, it's not the right place. How will they tell the truth if the owner of the company has already engineered everything." Reza smiled cynically.

"What does Mas Reza mean?" olivia didn't understand.

"What does this have to do with the owner of the company you work for?" tanya Wati also did not understand.

"Mama look at this!" Reza held out a few photos towards Wati.

"The man is the owner of the company I work for and Olivia's affair," Reza said with so much fanfare that Olivia jumped in shock.

"That's not true Ma, it's slander."

Wati stared one by one at the photo sheets given by Reza where the photo was taken when Olivia and Jack and Elves were on vacation together. There is also a photo of Jack William holding Olivia's hand on the side of the road while Olivia was looking for a rented house.

"I don't trust you, Olivia. I thought you were different from your mother Marisa, it was the same. You're even more cheesy than Marisa."

Hearing Wati's words, Olivia fell silent while shedding tears.

"Mommy!" elves shouted and the child hugged Olivia because he saw her baby sister crying.

"Mama, Mama saw for herself that even the boy looked very familiar with her."

"Now I agree with Rez if you divorce him. There is no reason for Mama to reject your decision" said Wati who immediately made a curved smile on the man's lips.

"Deliver immediately! Such a woman does not deserve to be kept as a wife." After saying that sentence Wati immediately left.

"If Mas Reza wants to divorce me why not just divorce, no need to make up cheap slander like that. Didn't I ask Mas Reza for a divorce?"

"You think it's that easy, Oliv? Nah! This divorce must happen without having to tarnish my good name in front of my parents." Reza chuckles.

"Basic cowardly men. I'm waiting for the divorce papers! Let's go El home!" Olivia pulls Elves' hand out of the house.

Seriate.
