章 11: Chapter 11
The light of bright lights in the kitchen made the long-haired woman slan over her footsteps. The smell of alcohol wafted as Rachel entered the kitchen equipped with barstools, a place where Nico often spent his time enjoying wine as the burden filled his mind. However, after the man went blind, Nico almost rarely did his habit.
"It turns out that you have truly forgotten our love, about our promise. Sofia, Sofia, it turns out you're nothing more than a cheap woman!" said Nico annoyed. For a moment Nico laughed at himself.
"How stupid am I!" The man poured wine into the glass. Then gulp it down.
"Mr. Nico!" said Rachel watching Nico from a distance, the girl looking surprised to see Nico as if she could already see.
Several times Nico poured wine into his glass. The man's lips continued to grumbles at Sofia's behavior. But unfortunately, Rachel could not hear clearly Nico's words as whispered.
"Alright if this is your will, Sofia. I will release you!" Nico descended from one of the tops of the high chair surrounding the barstool. For a moment he smiled sarcastically laughing at himself. Walk towards the kitchen exit.
"Sir!"
Rachel gasped, and Nico seemed surprised to see the baby sister who had been babysitting her daughter standing in front of her.
Nico was pretending to be blind. But it's useless because he's left his assisting stick next to the barstool bench.
"You can see!" Rachel was stuck, her index finger pointed at Nico who was still dumbfounded and looked very nervous.
"I...!" Nico grew more nervous as Rachel looked at him suspiciously.
Rachel walked up to Nico. Then moved his palm in front of Nico's face. Nico quickly grabbed Rachel's hand.
"Stop it!" hissed Nico putting on an annoyed face. His eyes drew to Rachel.
"So all this time you've been pretending...!" Rachel stammered, the girl still couldn't believe what she saw.
"Shut up, Rachel!" said Nico, drawing his face closer to Rachel who was about to flee. But unfortunately, Nico still gripped the palm of Rachel's hand that could not be a second.
"Never tell anyone about this!" Nico dropped a menacing look at Rachel.
"So right, Mr. Nico can already see!" said Rachel in a whispered voice. The net did not blink at all, the arches seemed to adorn Rachel's lips.
"Yes I can already see, so please don't you ever tell anyone about this," Nico said, his jaw hardened staring in annoyance at Rachel.
"Fine, sir!" replied Rachel nodding gently.
Nico let go of Rachel's hand violently. Walk past Rachel towards the kitchen door.
"Sir!" Call Rachel.
Nico snorted heavily, turning his body towards Rachel who was still standing in the same place, looking towards him.
"So did that day you also see the madam in the guest room?" Rachel bit her lower lip, her face seemed hesitant to ask the thing that would make Nico sick of course.
For a moment Nico was silent. The disgusting shadow was back in Nico's mind.
"Yes, I saw it!" said Nico immediately passed.
Rachel did not flinch, sculpting staring at the departure of Nico who disappeared in the darkness.

Sofia was pacing in front of the balcony of her room. The view of tall buildings is clearly visible from the glass windows of the room facing directly to downtown Jakarta. The woman looked agitated from this morning. After Raya stated that the owner of the company would come to his office at eleven o'clock later to collect the debts of the Cooperation Company.
Sofia's eyes looked towards the open door. A person wearing a black suit walked up to Sofia with a smile.
"Honey, why?" said Sam who was now standing in front of Sofia. A warm smile and a shady look at his eyes he dropped on Sofia. The woman who had been a slave to Sam's love.
Sofia couldn't hide her angry face at all. The look in his eyes returned Sam's gaze. The man got rid of the hair child that covered a bit of Sofia's pretty face.
"Sam, Mr. Santoso is coming here. He asked for the money we had borrowed to be returned immediately along with the flowers," Sofia said in a hoarse voice as if holding back tears. The stroke of his face showed a worry.
There was no expression on Sam's face. "Then?" said Sam raising his eyebrows.
Sofia clucked in annoyance. "Then, I don't know what else to do, Sam? The company's condition is getting worse." Clear grains fell wet Sofia's cheeks.
Sam placed both hands on Sofia's shoulder. "Honey, calm down! There must be a way out. Isn't Nico's wealthy asset a lot? Why don't you just sell one of them to cover those debts," sam suggested.
Sofia let out a deep sigh. Looking sad and disappointed at Sam. "Sam, I've done it. There's been a lot of Nico's assets that I've sold, it seems like something is wrong with our financial management, Sam. We're having too much fun." Sofia bit her lower lip, she seemed hesitant to tell Sam.
"Are you saying, if all this is because of me?" Sam's eyes turned sharply staring at Sofia. His index finger was pointed at his own chest.
"No, Sam, that's not what I mean!" Sofia was afraid to see Sam inflamed.
Sam snorted annoyedly, twisting his body walking towards the exit.
"Wait, Sam, wait!" Sofia held Sam's wrist.
"I'm very disappointed in you, Sofia. How could you think like that to me? You know how much I love you. So how could I...!" Sam snorted heavily, throwing his gaze away from Sofia.
"Yes Sam, I believe!" said Sofia. "Maybe it's because my mind is messed up, Sam. I really don't know where to make money from anymore. Today, Mr. Santosa will come here. If I don't pay off all those debts right away, then he'll take over this company, Sam!" Sofia seemed panicked.
"You're calm, you're going to sell Nico's plantation in Bandung?" Sam gently touched Sofia's shoulder, trying to calm down.
"It's Sam, I've asked Raya to put the ad, but until now there's no news, Sam!" Sofia is getting. "Selling that asset isn't easy, Sam!" said Sofia.
"Alright, you'll calm down, later if Mr. Santosa comes here, let me talk to him," sam looks like a hero. One hand gently rubbed Sofia's hair.
"It's free Sam, it's free. Because Mr. Santosa is looking for me, not you. He needs the owner of this company," Sofia panicked.
Sam snorted heavily. For a moment seemed to think. "How about now you make this company transfer letter of power to me. I'm sure this company would be much more advanced if it was in my hands. And the problem of debts, let me talk to Mr. Santoso," sam said with a smile.
Instantly Sofia just fell silent without flinching. For a few moments, they looked at each other.
"Oh, how is this. If I refuse Sam's request, surely he will leave me!"
