Chapter 7 - An accusation

"What's wrong Jey?" Zhie asked confused when Jeyra did not continue her speech.

"Arsean Adinata?!!!" Jeyra said, making Zhie even more confused.

"Yes, I know Jey, Zhie's husband's name is Arsean Adinata, and don't try to be a husband snatcher." Nick joked, not knowing what Jey meant.

"Oh my, that's not it, that's it! Zhie look, isn't that your husband and he's with a woman?" Jeyra asked pointing at the two people walking together.

Both Zhie and Nick turned their heads and immediately fell silent.

"Eh, I know that woman somehow!" Jeyra wanted to get up, but Zhie's hand quickly held her down so that her best friend wouldn't mess up, considering this was a public place.

Jeyra looked at Zhie, who had a pleading look on her face, so that Jey wouldn't make a fuss, especially since Jey had always liked to hit people who bothered her and those closest to her.

"No Jey, this is Sean's secretary, maybe they want to meet clients now." Zhie said, still trying to explain to Jeyra and Nick.

"Well there's Mrs. Arsean, Hi Nick, Zhie and Zhie's best friend, sorry I forgot who." Bianca greeted them as she walked past their table.

"Jeyra!" Jey replied curtly.

"Oh yes and Jeyra, sorry I forgot." Bianca said, repeating Jeyra's name.

Jey stood up quickly and deliberately pushed Bianca roughly, then pushed her away from Arsean. Bianca wanted to protest and even get angry, but she had to restrain herself in order not to go crazy in front of the public, let alone Arsean.

"Hello Mr. Arsean, what a coincidence that we meet here. Would you like to join us, your wife is also here." Jeyra invited.

Arsean looked at Zhie, who did not dare to look at him, then he sighed softly, wanting to answer, but. 

"Of course it's okay, right, Mr. Arsean Let's just get in here," Bianca said quickly.

Jeyra gave Bianca a displeased look, how could this woman answer first, even though Jeyra only invited Arsean.

So inevitably Jeyra decided to remain silent with a look of annoyance and dislike at Bianca.

"Mr. Arsean, please sit down." Nick said it deliberately.

Arsean looked at Nick for a long time, as if he remembered something, Arsean felt that the Nick's face was familiar. They must have met before, but where?

"You look familiar?" Arsean said, pointing at Nick with a questioning face.

Nick smiled before he spoke. "Let me introduce myself, my name is Nick Halbert. We met a week before you and Zhie got married." Nick smiled politely.

When Arsean heard that, he immediately clenched his fists and closed his eyes for a moment, I don't know if there was any anger that came over him after hearing that. 

"So, You are my wife's ex-boyfriend, you're also the one who came to ruin our wedding, right? But it's a pity that you couldn't take my wife away from me." Arsean said with a crooked smile.

"That's how much you love my wife, but it's a shame that you're not a match." Arsean continued, clapping his hands and laughing mockingly.

Damn it!

Annoyed, of course, Nick wanted to punch Arsean's haughty, mocking face.

"What is the purpose of this meeting, Arzhie Adinata?" Arsean stared at his wife while Zhie still stared at Nick because she didn't know if she was really meeting Arsean at this moment and wanted to beg him to let her go.

"Arzhie Adinata, I asked you a question, my dear! Why are you staring at your friend then?" Arsean said annoyed because she felt ignored by Zhie because she was still staring at Nick without wanting to answer him.

"Just calm down, Mr. Arsean Adinata, we met by chance, forget the past anyway, all that is in the past and we are now." he did not have time to answer the question yet, but Arsean cut in first.

"I'm asking my wife, not you, so there's no need for you to answer," Arsean pointed out.

"Woaw! Don't say that this is an old love blossoming again, in the past, you were a couple that people liked at school, even you were in the same organization again. You were so harmonious that you deserved a lot of likes," Bianca said, deliberately heating up, yes, they used to go to the same school, but Bianca did not join the organization, more precisely, she did not join.

"Oh like that." Arsean smiled weakly.

Zhie immediately went over to her husband and held Arsean's hand, rubbing it while inviting Arsean to sit in her arms. "Hey, what the heck, don't make such random messages, of course I love this handsome man. Sit down, let's eat together." Zhie even made Arsean smile while shaking her head, because Zhie's behavior amused her a little.

.. 

Bianca was annoyed and immediately sat down next to Jeyra: "Mr. Arsean, I'll order some food for you." Bianca was deliberate, not embarrassed at all.

Seeing this, Jeyra clenched her fists in annoyance. But Zhie quickly cleared his throat to make his best friend understand, a sign not to mess around.

"Okay." Arsean said quietly.

Soon the food came and they ate quietly, Bianca occasionally serving Arsean by getting some side dishes that Arsean would eat.

"I just found out that the secretary's job is like a maid's now." Jeyra mocked Bianca because Bianca's behavior bothered her.

Suddenly, she felt sick to her stomach, so Zhie excused herself to go to the bathroom.

After being in the rest room, Zhie didn't even vomit, but her stomach was very nauseous, then Zhie washed her hands after finishing, the woman looked at the reflection of her face in the sink mirror, with a bad stomach feeling.

"Hi, Zhie, you can't be angry just looking at them, and I have to remember what my mother-in-law said, I can't be weak just because of jealousy, Zhie's spirit, you have to be happy and not cry often, let alone feel sad all the time!" She said to encourage herself.

Feeling finished with the activities in the bathroom, Zhie finally went back to the table.

She was about to leave, but the annoying woman's voice made Zhie look at Bianca, who was walking closer to her. 

"Zhie, I have something to tell you," she said quietly as she stroked her stomach, showing something.

Zhie looked down at Bianca's belly, which he continued to stroke. "Are you pregnant?" Zhie asked quickly.

"What do you think? Never mind Zhie, just give up, let go of your husband and get a divorce, don't keep hurting yourself. You won't be a widow for long," Bianca whispered deliberately, glancing at the table where Arsean and the others were sitting, unnoticed because of the distance.

Zhie smiled, not showing her sad face like before. "Bianca, let's wake up, your dreams are so high." Zhie said sadistically and continued her steps towards the table.

Because she didn't get what she wanted, Bianca became angry and quickly grabbed Zhie's shirt until she could flip Zhie's body over, after which a loud crashing sound was heard. It ended with Bianca deliberately throwing herself backward and crashing into the table and chairs.

"Mr. Arsean, help!" Bianca shouted, who happened to be not far from the table.

Zhie was still silent in disbelief at what had happened, then Zhie quickly grabbed her, Bianca's head was bleeding. "Bianca! What are you doing?! Is that blood?" Zhie said worriedly.

"GET AWAY!" Arsean snapped at Zhie, then picked up Bianca after roughly pushing Zhie to the ground.

Nick quickly helped Zhie up, in fact, Nick was very surprised by Arsean's harsh treatment of Zhie.

Arsean looked at Bianca, it was seen that there was blood flowing on Bianca's forehead. "Arsean, it hurts so much, Arzhie is so rude, she pushed until I fell. Accused Bianca, speaking weakly while crying as if she had been hurt.

"You have an issue with me, Arzhie! Why involve someone else?!" Zhie stared into Arzhie's eyes, who looked at her sharply and angrily, then walked away with Bianca in his arms. 

"Zhie? Are you okay? You're bleeding too, Zhie, let's treat your wounds first," said Nick, as he went to Zhie. 

"No, I need to go to the hospital. I really didn't do it, I'm not guilty, I want to explain everything because Sean misunderstood." Zhie started to follow him, but Jeyra quickly grabbed her hand. 

"Zhie! What's wrong with you, don't you realize what your husband did? And is your husband always violent when he's angry? Why are you following him now? Don't you see that your husband is blaming you and even believes what Bianca said? You need to love yourself! He was really harsh just now! This is just too much, Zhie. He pays more attention to someone else asking for help while his own wife is hurt here too," Jeyra said angrily.

"No, Jey, he just misunderstood and he can't control his emotions. Jey, I need to go to the hospital. Please take me with you! Jeyra, I just want to explain everything so my husband won't misunderstand again." Zhie pleaded. 

"Oh my God, Zhie, why are you so stubborn? You should at least love yourself, Zhie! Look at yourself, you're bleeding too, not just Bianca." Jeyra said angrily. 

"Jey, please." Zhie begged. 

"Alright, Zhie. I'll take you and you can't refuse," Nick said invitingly. Honestly, Nick couldn't bear to see her like that, and he was also restraining himself from hitting Arsean. He also realized that if he did, Zhie would hate him.
