A Mate is Never Wrong
Heartspouring.

"Benny ran his company alone, his parents died long after the company was built. According to the information you know, her parents were only children, and so was Benny. So, there was no one else but his wife after Benny Irawan died," Handoko kept silent for a moment, "If time could be reset, papa would never want to carry the suitcase, Niko."

"Does Papa know where his wife is now?"

"The information you heard, his wife had sold all their assets and then went abroad. Maybe he wants to start a new life."

"Who did you hear from?"

"Friends of papa."

Niko felt something strange. However, he did not want to take a headache, because it was none of his business. Most importantly now Handoko is not in jail.

Niko could feel regret and fear in her papa. It's all been happening. Regret will not bring back the time lost.

The law of karma is real. What his father and his friend did will one day happen to them. Niko only hopes that what her father did in the past has no impact on her and her family in the future.

"Papa to the back porch first, papa must contact the owner of Bebbi Residence. Papa will make sure, is Wulan that you are after is really his son. You're also quick to go up and sleep."

Niko did not reply, she gave Handoko a big smile for the first time and hoped something good would happen.

***

This morning Niko is going to the hospital to open the stitches on her forehead with Brian.

Handoko will also meet the owner of the Bebbi Residence this morning to make sure that the woman his son is after is his friend's child.

Last night's conversation made the relationship between father and son better. The walls that were restricting them were already cracked.

As a child Niko will still defend his father, even though the mistakes made by the father are not small. At the moment he hopes there will be no police or whoever it is that will separate him from Handoko.

The two of them were sitting together in the dining room. A warm and bright atmosphere seemed to be visible as each expression exuded a happy aura.

Although she has not said it directly, Niko hopes her father will stay with her even longer.

As if knowing his son's wishes, Handoko will not abandon Niko until she succeeds in bringing the man down with the woman she loves.

"What compensation would you give if papa managed to take you down?"

Niko clucked. "Why do you want to negotiate?"

"Not a negotiation, papa wants to challenge you."

Niko finished breakfast. He looked seriously. "What challenge?"

"You like to collect women, don't you? Papa wants to challenge you. Papa wants you to settle down with one woman. If it works, papa will give you something."

"As long as that woman is Wulan I can."

Handoko. "Papa's not sure, a play boy like you can survive with one woman."

"Papa underestimated me? If I manage to do it, how?"

Handoko was happy to provoke her son. "As you said earlier, papa will give you something. Something that could guarantee your life and your wife's future."

"Okay, deal," Niko stood up, "I'm going to the hospital. I hope Papa's tonight will bring me good news."

"That's for sure, son. You take it easy."

Magdalena and Brian are also happy to see the interaction between the two employers. Twenty years more taking care of Niko, not once did they see the warm atmosphere they had just witnessed.

On the way to the hospital Niko's face looked happy as her eyes faced the window on the back bench.

The existence of the father at this moment made him excited. The father's attempt to match her to Wulan was really serious and it made her happy.

"You sure papa's gonna make it, Brian?"

Brian glanced from the rearview mirror. "I'm sure, sir."

"If not, how?"

"We must not underestimate the power of the great lord, sir. Even though he lived abroad, his position here was very influential."

"You're right, Brian. I'm so envious of him."

Niko's brown eyes stared at the window. He looked around until finally the eyes stopped on the figure of a woman sitting near the sidewalk.

'The woman .. That's Wulan.'

"Brian, is that Wulan?"

The man stared at the direction Niko was pointing at.

"Yes, Sir. That's Miss Wulan," Brian was surprised, "Where do you know it's Miss Wulan, Mr. Niko's feelings haven't met her?"

"You forgot that I was conscious when he helped me?"

Not wanting to get angry, Brian immediately brought the car closer to Wulan when the red light turned green.

She saw Wulan's shocked expression as her beautiful eyes were directed towards their car.

"Do you want to go to him or just me, sir?"

"You're here."

A little timid Niko came out and approached the woman. His brows furrowed as he saw the woman carrying a suitcase.

"Hi" Niko said, sitting next to him, "You remember me?"

The woman was surprised to see the handsome and neat man greeting her.

'Who's this handsome guy, huh? He knows me, where? His face was no stranger to me either. Have I ever met him?'

Niko held out a hand. "I'm Niko, the man you saved how many days ago."

The woman who turned out to be Wulan was completely shocked. He smiled widely and returned Niko's hand.

"I'm sorry, I don't recognize you."

"It's natural, my face used to be full of blood. Now my face is clean and looking good."

Wulan chuckles. He saw there was still plaster on Niko's forehead. "How are you doing?"

"Don't be formal. Call me Niko. I'm going to the hospital, today my schedule is pulling threads."

"I'm glad to hear that. My name is Wulan."

"Wulandari Tanujaya, right?"

He's surprised. "You know where it came from?"

"You've paid my medical expenses. I won't forget that, Wulan."

"That's normal. Forget it."

Niko glanced at the large red suitcase. "How many days ago I heard you were out of town. Is this case proof that you're back?"

Wulan was not surprised to hear that. She smiled shyly.

"really. I'm waiting for the cab home."

"If you don't mind, let me take you home."

"Don't you have to go to the hospital?"

"No problem, I can go to the hospital after dropping you off."

Wulan. "I'll accompany you to the hospital. After that you can take me home."

"Do you mind waiting for me?"

"Of course not."

Without saying anything Niko immediately stood up, took Wulan's suitcase and placed it in the trunk of the car. Not only that, Niko also opened the car door and let the woman in. They sat together on the back bench, while in front was Brian who would take them to their destination.
