Your Spirit from the Water of My Eyes
Chapter 73. The Unrestrained Regret.
The atmosphere that had felt awkward and confusing, slowly began to melt with the chatter between Ayun and Nindi. Also the discussion about the course of the trial just a moment ago, of course the most frenetic Ezra asked here and there.
Abbas himself chose to be quiet and just pay attention to them, while Keanu who sat beside him seemed to glance at the in-laws several times as if he wanted to say something.
"Don't keep looking at papa, Ken," Abbas said in a stifled voice making Keanu smile thinly.
"That woman is the woman whose picture is in Papa's study, right?" keanu asked in a soft voice, even whispering.
Abbas immediately turned his face towards Keanu when he heard his son-in-law's words, his forehead frowning as if asking why the man knew about the hidden photos in his study.
"Papa once told me to pick up a file in the study, when I accidentally saw it" said Keanu, who knew the meaning of the in-law's gaze.
Abbas looked straight ahead again with a rough sigh. "Did the hospital get a donor?" He tried to divert the conversation, of course he felt embarrassed to be caught keeping a photo of another woman by his own daughter-in-law.
"Not yet, and it seems like it will be very difficult to get a donor" Keanu replied. He has also lobbied all hospitals in the city to get donors faster.
"How about looking for it in the black market?"
Keanu immediately looked at his in-laws sharply and in disbelief. "Why not wrong?" He asked seriously.
"Papa was just joking, Ken," Abbas said, patting his son-in-law on the shoulder, but Keanu clearly knew that what his father-in-law had said was not just a joke.
"We just wait, chances are the doctor will definitely check the children or their families first. It was the first choice if he could not get a donor" Abbas continued, making Keanu only able to stare flatly, but she was sure that her in-laws would definitely do something to get a donor for that woman named Hanna.
Meanwhile, in another place Evan is throwing some items in Sherly's house with anger. He was really upset by what happened in the trial today, even when he heard the final results read by the judge.
"Sia*lan!" evan cursed with great annoyance, making Sherly and Sella can only look at the door.
"Why, why do they have to interfere with my and Ayun's business?" evan's yelling made his voice echo in that place.
Sherly and Sella quickly step inside the house and approach the man.
"You see for yourself, don't you, Evan?" said Sella sharply. "You see that at the trial? My husband and his family helped Ayun to such an extent, I'm sure that she just took care of it. Then he got the win, and you? You're gonna lose everything."
Evan gasped when he heard Sella's words, he then looked at the middle-aged woman sharply and filled with anger.
"I told you from the beginning that they wanted to marry that woman to my husband, but you didn't want to listen. Now feel the defeat of you who only have to count days again" Sella said as she stepped into the room. He shut the door firmly, leaving Sherly's body in shock.
Evan was silent with a stiff body when he heard all the words of the in-laws. Is it true that Ayun will marry Abbas? If not, why would they want to help out just like that?
Evan immediately brushed off Sherly's hand violently making the woman stunned. "Stop talking, Sherly. Don't you know I'm so dizzy right now, huh?" He then sat his body on the sofa.
Sherly clucked in annoyance upon hearing that. He has to do something immediately before everything falls into Ayun's hands. Then, his fate and how Sacred? He also has the right to Evan's property.
"Now is not the time for dizziness, Van. We have to think about our future, and you have to think about Saints too" Sherly said in a statement.
Evan himself remained silent. Her chest felt tight at the thought that Ayun was actually married to Abbas. No, that woman can't do such a thing. How could his ex-wife marry his own ex-in-law?
"I need to talk to Swing,"
"What?" screeched Sherly in shock. "What are you talking to him for?" He asked with a pus.
Evan picks up his cell phone that is in his pants pocket regardless of what Sherly says. However, he had not yet called Ayun. A message from someone coming into his email made him open the email immediately.
Deg.
Evan's eyes widened when he realized that in two days there would be a very important event, and fortunately one of his business partners sent something and made him remember the auction event.
"Why are you quiet, Evan? What are you-" for"
"Be quiet, there's something more important than that" Evan quickly cut. "I need to get to the office to prepare for the auction the day after tomorrow." He put his cell phone back in his pants pocket, and prepared to go to the office."
Sherly immediately fell silent with a tense body when she heard Evan's words. His heart was racing, with cold sweat flowing down his body.
"Calm down, Sherly. Evan won't know about everything you've done."
