Chapter 220 - Kamikaze Soldier

"Surya wasn't seen at his house. His car was also seen on the road on the day Mr. Hendra fled. We had a hard time persuading his mother to tell the truth. That woman consistently said that Surya was on vacation".

"How about Hendra's cellphone? Can it be traced?".

"Hendra's cellphone was sold online. We've found it". Andos handed the young master's cellphone to Wiryo.

"Based on the buyer's information, their COD transaction was carried out by someone with characteristics similar to Hery. They purposely sold it to deceive us".

"Does that mean you followed someone who doesn't know anything?". Wiryo's question was answered with a nod by Andos. He was embarrassed.

"Huh. Hendra is always smart as usual".

"Don't get me wrong, Sir. Our team has shed some light. We just found out that one of the DM Group's head office employees is Aruna's sister's lover. Today Raka came to his apartment. Aruna's older sister lives there. She didn't admit that Hendra came to see her, but the apartment CCTV showed the arrival of Hendra, Hery, and Surya".

"So Hendra is still in Jakarta?".

"Yes, Sir. It seems that Hendra is looking for the whereabouts of Aruna. The security guard of the house where the Lesmana family previously lived also said that they were visited by two people who asked where that family had moved".

"He's still persistent about finding out where his wife is… Still stubborn".

"If only I were Mr. Hendra, I'd also do the same thing".

Wiryo smiled at Andos. This man had also experienced a heartbreaking thing. He lost his wife and child due to a mysterious kidnapping. After successfully uncovering a case that dragged many officials when he was still serving as an intelligence, instead of being rewarded for his success, that case surprisingly was deliberately closed after gathering evidence with difficulty. Something that motivated Andos to resign from his service.

"It's very painful to be suddenly separated from the people we love, especially our own wives. This time I don't agree with you. Sorry, Sir".

"I don't want this either, Andos. But I have no other choice. Aruna couldn't hold on any longer. If that child had to be locked up in this place, you know she'd have a hard time. Besides, Lesmana has done a lot for me. For the first time, he got angry and said to me that he wanted his daughter home. What can I do to make up for their kindness because they're willing to help Hendra?".

"Why don't we try to fight Tarantula? If only you'd be willing to fight them, I'm sure Aruna wouldn't have to leave the young master".

"If I decide to fight Tarantula, I'll destroy my own sibling".

"True and that's a tough choice. But look at the way you survive. You're destroying your own family members slowly!".

"If Hendra is destroyed like his mommy, I'm sure it won't take long for Djoyodiningrat to end". Andos stared at Wiryo. The man with the fierce face was more daring to express his opinion this time.

"How bad is the condition of the DM Group after being left by the CEO?".

"This month the financial reports haven't been completed yet. Several contracts and collaborations have been abandoned. That's nothing compared to the cessation of the construction of Dream City. Pradita has given up on the photo of Tania and Hendra in Bali. Rumors and speculations are growing so fast because the same rumor hasn't disappeared from the public's memory".

Actually, there were other bad effects that Andos didn't mention. The viral news that Tania and Hendra were drunk together sparked a movement to boycott products made by the DM Group subsidiary. The insults in the comments column of Mahendra's official account weren't worth reading. The subsidiary's turnover was slowly falling and its share price was far from stable.

"How great is my grandson's influence". Wiryo smiled.

"Can't Vian and Thomas replace him for a while?". Wiryo suggested.

"Or perhaps you can replace him temporarily".

"That's not my specialty, Sir. Don't let us break the D floor rules. Vian and Thomas aren't allowed to be seen".

"Do you think it's time for us to fight Tarantula?".

"Yes. You know our strength is more than enough. The only choices are fighting your own sibling or losing your grandson".

"Find Hendra as soon as possible! After that, we'll decide".

"Aww".

"Hey, Aruna. You're spacing out again, huh?". Her mother frowned. That girl was sliced by a knife when cutting carrots.

"Hehe. Sorry, Mom..".

"Just rest".

"It's okay, Mom.. I'll help you, okay?".

"I don't like to see your wound. Clean the blood first!".

"Okay..".

Aruna tried to find a medicine box in their new house. This house was much smaller than the house that the Djayadiningrat family gave them. The house where the Lesmana family had lived since Aruna was born.

Meanwhile, this new house was built by Anantha, a persistent big brother. He really meant it when he said he'd become a Kamikaze soldier for his sister.

He'd prepared many things and was waiting for this day to come. The day when the Lesmana family could take back their youngest daughter. Now, the family's economy was also on the shoulders of the Kamikaze soldier, Anantha.

They left their old house only bringing their personal belongings. Including the household assistant and security guard, only Miss Linda and Mr. Tejo. The rest returned to their hometowns.

That's why Aruna couldn't let her mother cook on her own. Miss Linda is too busy cleaning and washing clothes. Aruna also cleaned up today.

Meanwhile, Mr. Lesmana, who was usually busy with office work as the director of DM Delivery, was confused about what to do. He wasn't used to doing nothing at home.

If Aruna hadn't come home, this girl couldn't imagine the disappointment of her family who had stepped this far. Leaving all that they had. The comfortable status and position were left behind. This girl couldn't bear to see those who had sacrificed for her return.

"Aruna..".

"Hmm… What, Dad?".

"Come here. Let me help you".

"Ah. It's just like this. I can do it by myself".

"Come here.. I'm doing nothing anyway".

Lesmana helped his daughter bandage the wound on her fingertip. Both of them smiled because they did something small that used to look very expensive because of their busy lives.

"Dad.. You're still angry with Aliana?".

"Who said I was angry with Aliana?".

"I know she's pregnant and now she's not here! It means you scolded her".

"Let her be.. So that she can be mature..".

"Come on, Dad.. She must be very sad. I'm sure she cries every day".

Lesmana didn't seem happy to talk about Aliana.

"Please think about it again, okay? Being together or being angry all the time. Which one is better?".

"Huh. You're always good at persuading your father..".

"Hehe..". That girl smiled at the words of Lesmana. She knew that man was starting to melt.

"But there is a condition".

"What?".

"Empty your mind.. Stop spacing out. How many plates have you broken?? Today, your finger. Tomorrow, what else?". Lesmana reminded the youngest who had looked dazed since returning home.

"Can I go to Magic Letter outlet, Dad?".

"Ask Anantha first".

"If I ask him, he definitely won't allow it..".

"I know my daughter wants to meet her college friends and play like before… But…". Lesmana's words were cut off by the youngest for the first time.

"If there is still the word 'but', what's the difference with living with Hendra? In the end, it's the same..".

_Also being locked up_

The youngest went into her room. She closed the door slowly and sat by the window. She had stayed still for a long time. Not sure what's bothering her mind.
