160Once Shabila had finished packing all her clothes, she dragged her suitcase down from the second floor. When she reached the ground floor, she encountered Mariana, who was on her way to her husband's office.The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looked at each other, locking eyes and silently assessing each other's appearance. Mariana shook her head, unable to fathom how Bryan could marry a woman who dressed as provocatively as Shabila.Her intention to marry Bryan off to Alesya wasn't solely about seizing Aditama's wealth but also about changing Bryan's taste in women from someone who liked revealing clothing to someone with class like Alesya.Unfortunately, Bryan had squandered the opportunity to marry a good girl like Alesya and had chosen to continue his relationship with Shabila instead. Mariana couldn't be angrier about it. To make matters worse, Bryan had auctioned off Alesya to several men, and now she had ended up with Nicholas. Whether that was a blessing or a problem fo

162Once in the family room, Bryan took a deep breath, exhaling slowly. He stood in front of Alesya, pronouncing divorce upon his wife.One task for Handoko was now completed. Now he just had to divorce Shabila, whose whereabouts were unclear."Bryan has divorced Alesya; you can get married whenever you want," Handoko broke the silence after Bryan pronounced the divorce to Alesya."And Dad prays that you will be blessed with children soon to end this. And please leave this house as soon as everything goes as I want."An ending that deeply offended Nicholas."No need for that, Dad. After we get married, I'll take Alesya to live separately from all of you."Not wanting to be belittled, Nicholas quickly corrected his father's words."Dad won't allow that," Handoko responded to Nicholas without looking at his son. "Until both of you leave this house, just see what will happen to Alesya.""This is not fair. Dad, you know, Bryan is Alesya's ex-husband? Naturally, I'm not comfortable leaving

164Lusi also handed everything over to Nicholas and was ready to accept Handoko's decision to divorce her. There was no point in preserving a marriage that had long lost its health.While Handoko still loved her deeply and could share fairly with Mariana, living a life filled with lies was not good for Lusi's mental and emotional well-being.Before Aditama passed away, he entrusted Alesya to Lusi, not to anyone else. And the reason Aditama did that was because Lusi was good at acting, hiding her true self, and concealing Handoko's wickedness."So, Daddy did it willingly?" The grip of Alesya's hand on Nicholas's tightened. Lusi nodded slowly. "So there were no traps or anything like that? Daddy really did it willingly?"Once again, Alesya sought clarity so that she would understand the depth of pain her mother had felt when betrayed by the man she loved dearly. Alesya knew just how much her mother had loved Aditama, a gentle and caring man when it came to their family. She had never s

166Nicholas was a source of happiness in her life, despite his origins in Mariana and Handoko's relationship. He had made her life better, and Alesya couldn't imagine where she would be without him. She understood that without Nicholas, her life would have taken a much darker turn."Al, there's something I want to ask you," Nicholas said as they entered their hotel room. He led Alesya to sit on the edge of the bed, wanting to have an intimate conversation without any interruptions."What do you want to talk about? I'd rather not discuss our parents' issues right now, Nik. I just want some peace," Alesya replied."But I do want to talk about it, Al. Don't worry; I'll approach it from a different perspective.""What do you mean?"Nicholas held Alesya's hand. "I want to ask you if you've been keeping something in your heart since you found out what happened to both of your parents. Because...""Are you saying that my parents caused their own deaths?" Alesya interrupted Nicholas. "Yes, m

168Shabila laughed, occasionally moaning when naughty hands squeezed her soft curves. Someone hugged her from behind, kissed her neck, and left wet marks there. Shabila even let those naughty hands remove the mini dress she was wearing, leaving only her lingerie to cling to her body."Everyone, come down and take turns dancing with me. Why are you just sitting here alone?" She approached a man who was enjoying his drink.In a corner of the club, far from the crowd of visitors, a man looked dejected, sighing with regret. It was heavy living because his beloved wife had left him.The man, none other than Gibran, had trapped Viska there, resulting in her pregnancy, and they were forced to marry. Now, Shabila was reliving that story.While others were lightly touching her, Gibran wasn't interested at all. He preferred to be alone, which challenged Shabila to seduce him.It was quite difficult, but when Shabila sat on Gibran's lap, the item that resembled his glasses had disappeared witho
