Her grandfather smiled. Shasha was the final decision-maker. She was hard-hearted like her grandmother and proud like himself. Pride in the case was positive, of course. Shasha wanted to stand up for her efforts.
However proud she was, this granddaughter was humble and hardworking in character.
But that was just Shasha being her true self. She never proclaimed herself as the daughter of a famous artist and the daughter of a mayor. She didn't even care about her parents' wealth, who were influential and powerful. Shasha always wanted to live a simple and dignified life.
In the morning, the family which had been separated for a long time gathered together at the dining table for breakfast, like a normal family. Only Shasha seemed familiar with her grandfather. Shasha served breakfast for her grandfather. Grandpa fed Shasha heartily in return. The two people understood that Grandma and Maya were looking at them in confusion that they both were familiar before this. Mrs. Maimunah and Maya Agustin were surprised at how close they seemed now.
But what's good about this morning's meeting, Mrs. Maimunah no longer felt tense. Maya Agustin was quite happy, and her cellphone had been returned too.
"Go home ... maybe many are looking for you," her father handed over her cell phone calmly. No more anger in his eyes like yesterday. Maya Agustin was sure this is all thanks to Shasha.
Shasha was more like a sister than a child, even though their age difference was quite large of a whole 17 years. Shasha was now a 21 years old woman. But Maya's face looks 10 years younger.
Of course, because Maya Agustin had been through plastic surgery and thread implantation in Korea. Even without the operation, Maya was originally beautiful, because she had a mixture of Sundanese, Javanese, Arabic, and Dutch blood running through her veins.
Unfortunately, Maya Agustin was not good at speaking English which did not support her beautiful face.
...
At midday when Maya Agustin returned home, Regina was still at school, while Ryan, her husband did not come home, since Maya went to Jakarta. Someone sent photos and videos of her husband with another woman.
Maya Agustin slammed her cellphone on the floor and slammed everything around her. Maya Agustin clenched her fists. She had got a lot of evidence of her husband's abuse and betrayal.
Maya Agustin left her house, went to the family court. Yes, she filed for a divorce.
Immediately the news leaked to the media. Maya Agustin didn't care though.
Maya Agustin moved to another apartment of hers. Neither her husband nor her daughter Regina knew of her new home. She brought 3 of her assistants to help to move and only left 1 maid at the house to help Regina's needs who were not independent.
Regina screamed hysterically reading the news about her mother on the cellphone. Quickly she returned home, but she was surprised by the situation at home. It was chaotic.
Her mother must have gone berserk, the bad news was that her mother had moved houses. And no one knew where she moved to now. Without her mother, her life was a mess.
Suddenly someone appeared in the living room of the house, a beautiful woman was waiting for her. Regina didn't know her. Because the security guard had been relocated by her mother, someone can easily enter the house, unlike yesterday, many helpers and security guards guarding the house.
The woman is Sofia, her birth mother. A disaster that had just entered Regina's life.
*****
Ryan did not realize that his marriage with Maya Agustin was in danger of being disbanded. He was still drunken asleep in a hotel room. While his first wife Sofia had disappeared from the hotel room. Two hours ago Sofia snapped his photos and videos while making out in a club.
If he was aware of his surroundings and the consequences of what these pictures could lead him to, he could have argued that he would not take any photos and videos. He was also a victim of that incident.
Sofia was back in Ryan's life with a new, more charming look. Sofia underwent plastic surgery from the money that Ryan had given her as compensation, which was given for leaving Regina, the child from her affair with Ryan.
Ryan didn't think that Sofia became so much prettier than 15 years ago. Back then Sofia was just a pretty and innocent young cafe singer. She was crazy about handsome Ryan.
Ryan was an agent who was capable of making an artist famous. By approaching Ryan, she hoped to become famous. However, she later lost to Indo newcomer singer Maya Agustin.
Maya Agustin was much prettier and had the right tricks to beat Ryan.
Apart from being a womanizer, Ryan was also a money man. Maya Agustin knew Ryan's weakness. At that time at a cafe where Ryan used to hang out, Maya pretended to be drunk beside Ryan who wanted to be near her. Seeing a pretty girl drunk, Ryan certainly didn't want to lose the opportunity. Ryan carried Maya Agustin to the sofa.
Maya Agustin deliberately embraced Ryan and pressed her face against Ryan's chest.
"Hahaha ... you're quite handsome too ...", Maya Agustin punched Ryan's chest.
Ryan's face heated in no time, he was offended when he said he was quite handsome. He was very handsome, many women were crazy about him and want to sleep with him even for once.
"Who are you ... you dare to approach me ... looking for a chance huh?" Maya Agustin pursed her sexy lips. Ryan was blown away. This beautiful woman dared to come along to the club and get drunk without thinking about her safety.
Ryan saw that although the woman did not look rich, she was very beautiful with a proportional and sexy body.
"Don't you dare touch me ... my father can kill you!" Maya Agustin walked away unsteadily. Ryan picked her up and took her to the car. The woman made him curious. She fell asleep in Ryan's car, Ryan immediately remembered her face.
The woman was a singer who had been signed by the agency but then disappeared without news.
Ryan approached Maya Agustin's face trying to kiss her.
PLAK! PLAK !!
Maya Agustin suddenly slapped him. This woman was still managed to protect herself by slapping him even when she was half asleep. Ryan got excited. He had never been slapped by women. With his strength, he held Maya's hand passionately as he kissed Maya Agustin who was helpless.
Although Maya Agustin responded by fighting back, she enjoyed Ryan's attack. When she let her guard down, the man stuffed some drugs into Maya Agustin's mouth.
