Stay or Leave

David has been around looking for Bella’s whereabouts to his parents’ house but there is nothing. Finally David returned to his house because it was getting late at night.

“You want to play with me apparently, let’s see what I will do later” David muttered as he pulled over his car and sent a message to someone.

After that, David drove back his car towards his house.

***

In the morning David was getting ready to go to the office.

“Dav, why is the house so quiet. Where are Bella and Bianca?” Mrs. Ratih asked David when David was walking towards the dining table.

“It’s better if you don’t have to look for Bella and Bianca anymore, just let them go,” said David casually.

“What are you doing Dav, they are your wife and children. Why do you seem to not care about them anymore?” asked Mrs. Ratih who did not know the truth.

“Bianca is not David’s daughter,” said David wearily.

“What do you mean Dav? Try explaining it to mama!” said Mrs. Ratih.

David took the DNA test results in his briefcase and handed them over to his mother. Mrs. Ratih immediately accepted it and read it slowly. His eyes blinked repeatedly, as if what he was seeing was just a dream. It’s impossible, right, a woman who is spoiled and glorified because she can give her grandchildren quickly has the heart to lie to her and her son. But the middle-aged woman again realized that what she saw through the DNA test results was not her real grandson.

“Then whose daughter is Dav?” asked Mrs. Ratih with teary eyes, because all this time it turned out that she had misjudged someone.

“Looks like the guy who donated blood for Bianca yesterday at the hospital” David guessed.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

“Why does Bella have the heart to lie to usEven though Mama really trusts him and always puts him first” regretted Mrs. Ratih as she sat on a chair near the dining table.

“It’s okay, there’s no need to regret it,” said David.

“I’m sorry Dav, for the second time your household was destroyed,” said Mrs. Ratih regretfully.

“Everything has happened and do you know? Ayunda is pregnant now” David told his mother about Ayunda.

Actually, David was also disappointed with his mother, because Bella was Mrs. Ratih’s choice.

“Really? Has he remarried?” asked Mrs. Ratih with a pretty surprised face when she heard that her former daughter-in-law was already pregnant.

“I don’t know” David answered simply because he didn’t know either.

“David go first, mah, it’s noon” David continued to say goodbye to his mother, which Mrs. Ratih nodded.

Arriving at the office, David rushed into his room on the top floor. Arriving at his room, David was surprised by someone already sitting in his oversized chair.

“You,” David was surprised by the person.

“Why? Are you surprisedI don’t think I need to introduce myself anymore, you already know who I am?” Someone said.

“What are you doing here?” asked David in surprise.

“Of course it works” someone replied casually.

“Are you dreaming? This is my office, get up quickly from that seat!” said David as he approached his desk.

“From now on, this place and company is mine,” said Erwin casually as he leaned back on the chair with his feet resting on the table. David who saw Erwin’s behavior immediately couldn’t control his emotions. David pulled the collar of the shirt worn by Erwin.

Well, the one who was already sitting in David’s oversized chair was Erwin.

“Never dream, I remind you again. This company is mine and has nothing to do with you” David snapped, still gripping Erwin’s collar.

“Prove that this is all yours” Erwin casually said like that then removed David’s hand from his collar then patted his shirt gently like dusting.

david who heard the words of the man who according to David was dreaming, immediately looked for something in the room. David rummaged through all the files in the cupboard, but couldn’t find what he was looking for.

“Have you found what you were looking for?” Erwin asked, looking down at David.

David could only contain his emotions.

“Are you looking for this?” Erwin continued, waving a folder in his hand with a small smirk on his lips.

“How can that be on you?” David was quite surprised because the folder was such an important object that it could be in someone else’s hands.

“Your wife gave this to me” Erwin answered plainly.

Erwin’s words suddenly made David clench his fists and tighten his jaw. it turns out, the person closest to him is really a traitor.

“You see, this has all changed to my name” said Erwin, somehow Erwin was able to transfer all of David’s assets into his own name.

“Insolent, you stole it!” accused David.

“Don’t worry my brother, I only took what should be mine and I didn’t have the heart to take it all. I’ve left for you the branch company in city B, including the house and the car I gave up for you” Erwin said casually which made David confused.

what did you say brother?

David really didn’t understand what the man was saying.

“Are you confused by what I said? Okay, I’ll explainah no, I’m not the one who will explain but your mother will explain it” he continued again while clapping his hands and then two people entered the room.

“Dav, please momMamah was forced by this person to come with him” said Mrs. Ratih who had just arrived in the room with Erwin’s men.

“How are you Auntie? Looks like you’ve been living in peace all this time” Erwin interrupted Mrs. Ratih’s words.

“Who are you?” asked Mrs. Ratih turning her gaze towards Erwin.

“Okay, I’ll introduce myself. I’m Erwin Nugraha, son of Nugraha and Nissa. Do you remember itnissa is my mother’s name, the woman you have hurt because you came into my mother’s household and ruined everything. Right now I have come to take some of what should be mine,” Erwin explained.

“You’re the son of Nissa,” said Mrs. Ratih surprised.

“That’s right,” Erwin replied.

“Now what are you waiting for, get out of here!” he continued.

“But these all belong to my son!” cried Mrs. Ratih not accepting it.

“I have prepared for your son and this is already mine” said Erwin.

“Come on, let’s get out of here!” invite David to lead Mrs. Ratih out of the room.

Well actually David knew that his father had a child from a woman other than his mother, and now the child has come asking for his rights.

When he got home, David brushed his hair in frustration. I don’t know what David will do next. The company he currently owns is only a small company.

“Why did you just hand it over?” said Mrs. Ratih who still did not want to accept the fact.

“Come on, this is all mommy’s fault tooMommy started it” David blamed Mrs. Ratih.

“Why are you blaming mama? You should have supported mama, Dav,” said Mrs. Ratih, who still didn’t realize her mistake.

Mrs. Ratih was also the only wife of Mr. Nugraha, because Mr. Nugraha was already married to Mrs. Nissa, the mother of Erwin, but Mrs. Nissa chose to back down and gave up after finding out that she was betrayed by Mr. Nugraha.
