Apa Itu Plot Twist

Before anything else could happen, I stood up from squatting in front of him and walked toward my work table. My hands were shaking, but I tried not to show it. "Now you have time to listen to my proposal," I said firmly, trying to sound confident even though my heart was racing. I picked up the document I had placed there earlier—a simple sheet of paper, but one that could change everything. I held it up for him to see. Yes, kidnapping him had been desperate. But what I was about to offer? Even more so. "You just have to sign this marriage contract," I told him. "If we get married, I can claim my inheritance, solve my problem, and then we’ll let you go." He raised an eyebrow, amused. “And what’s in it for me? I don’t gain anything here. Why should I let you manipulate my life like that?” I clenched my fists. "You’re my hostage! Your freedom depends on me. You have no choice but to do what I say!" I snapped, voice rising with frustration. As soon as I said it, regret washed over me. I sounded like a child throwing a tantrum, and I saw it in his eyes—disappointment. Disgust. “I already have a fiancée, Kourtney. We’re getting married soon. I can’t marry you,” he said with finality. Of course I knew. I knew everything about him. I kept tabs on his life not because I wanted to, but because I had to. “I love her,” he continued. “And if I ever get married, it’s going to be with the woman I love. That’s Kim.” I bit my lower lip to stop the trembling. I was humiliated… but worse, I was heartbroken.

Ketika kandunganku menginjak sembilan bulan dan hampir siap melahirkan, suamiku, Arga Baskara, justru memerintahkan orang mengunciku di gudang bawah tanah dan menyuruhku menahan agar bayi itu tidak lahir. Karena istri almarhum kakaknya, Indri Magani, juga diperkirakan akan melahirkan hari ini. Arga pernah berjanji pada kakaknya bahwa anak pertama yang lahir dalam Keluarga Baskara akan dididik sebagai penerus dan menerima warisan keluarga. "Anak Indri harus lahir lebih dulu," kata Arga dengan tenang. "Dia kehilangan suaminya dan nggak punya apa-apa. Sementara kamu sudah memiliki semua cintaku, memberikan harta kepada anaknya adalah hal yang seharusnya." Kontraksi membuatku kesakitan sampai berguling-guling, aku menangis memohon padanya untuk membawaku ke rumah sakit. Arga mengusap air mataku dengan lembut, suaranya rendah dan mengandung bahaya. "Jangan berpura-pura! Aku sudah lama tahu kamu sama sekali nggak mencintaiku. Satu-satunya yang kamu pedulikan adalah kekayaan dan kedudukan." "Kamu sengaja mau melahirkan prematur hanya untuk merebut hak keponakanku... Bagaimana bisa kamu begitu kejam?" Wajahku pucat dan seluruh tubuhku gemetar. Aku berkata dengan suara pelan, "Aku nggak bisa mengendalikan kapan anak ini akan lahir, kelahiran prematur hanyalah kebetulan! Aku bersumpah, aku nggak peduli sama harta, aku hanya mencintaimu!" Arga tertawa sinis. "Kalau kamu mencintaiku, kamu nggak akan memaksa Indri menandatangani kontrak untuk melepaskan hak waris untuk anaknya. Oke, setelah dia melahirkan, aku akan kembali menemuimu. Bagaimanapun juga, yang ada di perutmu adalah darah dagingku sendiri." Arga menunggu di luar ruang bersalin Indri. Setelah melihat bayi yang baru lahir itu, barulah dia teringat padaku. Dia menyuruh sekretaris menjemputku ke rumah sakit, tetapi sekretaris itu dengan suara gemetar berkata, "Nyonya... dan bayinya... sudah meninggal..." Pada saat itu, Arga menjadi gila.
