Aleen walked away from the Prasetyo family home with his nanny Aunt and Dev. He ignored Mr. Bastian who had been yelling at him.
"Well, how's this? What are we supposed to do? I don't want to cancel my engagement to Angga's sister"
Diana whines at her mother when she sees Aleena leaving, but she doesn't respond. The lady did not say anything. He just silently stared at Aleena's departure
"Aleen, why didn't you say anything to me? What have you been thinking of me all this time that you never told me about your situation?"
Mumbled Angga while looking at Aleena who was getting away.
...****************...
Dev treated Aleena gently. He even opened the car door for Aleen and his maid as they were about to leave the Prasetyo family home.
"Non, is Miss okay? This must be very painful. I'm sorry, Auntie, because you haven't been able to take good care of Non Aleen".
Aunty spoke with tears in her eyes. His hand just kept holding Aleen's hand while continuing to gently rub him.
"Bi, I'm not papa. Is Aunt okay? Aunty was also beaten by papa".
Aleen spoke with a worried look on his nanny.
"Auntie is not papa Non, but... "
Aunty did not continue her sentence and turned to Dev who was driving the car with a cold expression.
"Dev, thank you for helping me. I don't know what will happen if you don't come. Maybe. I'll keep beating papa to death"
Aleena followed the aunt's gaze and spoke to Dev to thank him.
"Either. I'm glad I could help you"
"For your offer, I know that you did it just to help me, so you have no obligation to actually do it"
Ckiiite
Ow hell!
Dev stopped his car suddenly after hearing Aleen's words.
"What do you mean I don't have to? I've said clearly that I'm going to marry you, do you think I'm joking with the offer?"
Dev turned his head and looked at Aleen with a sharp glint of eyes. There was not the slightest doubt visible from both of his eyes.
"No. It's not like that. I was just afraid that you would feel burdened if you were to marry me. We have not known for long, even we have just tenu 2 times, how can we get married immediately".
Aleen spoke with a slight hesitation. He lowered his head as he spoke and did not dare to look Dev in the eye directly.
"Aleen, I'm serious about what I said. It's hard for me to retract every word I've ever said".
Dev tries to convince Aleena to believe every word she says.
The aunt who was there just smiled watching the interaction between Dev and Aleen.
...****************...
Not long after they arrived at a luxury house in an elite residential area. Dev immediately parked his car after the security guard opened the gate for him.
"Dev, whose house is this?",
Aleen asked her after recalling that Dev had previously said he was only a tourist.
"We go down first" Dev replied in a calm manner.
Someone was waiting in front of the house and went straight to Dev as soon as he got out of the car.
"Young master, I've cleared everything up as you requested" the middle-aged man said with a respectful attitude towards Dev.
"Thank you Man".
Dev nodded in a calm manner responding to the man's words.
"Leen, this is Mr. Usman, he's been taking care of this house for a while because I don't have a maid here yet. She'll be back at my parents' house after there's a maid in this house".
Dev introduces his servant to Aleena.
"Den, then let Auntie take care of the house. Aunt is used to the job".
"Is it true that your aunt takes care of this house?".
Dev hesitated a little because Aleen's maid was old enough to take care of his mansion.
"Auntie is not papa Den".
"Alright if Aunt doesn't mind. Then I'll find another maid to help Aunt take care of this house".
"Good Den. Thanku".
"It is precisely me who is grateful that Auntie wanted to come here with Aleen".
"Young master, I've selected some people to work as gardeners and helpers here. I'll show you their profile".
Mr. Man spoke after Dev finished speaking.
"alright. Mr. Man can go back to Papa's house after taking care of everything here. Remember not to say anything to them. I still want to take good care of my eardrum".
Dev warns Man to keep his words in front of his parents.
Aleena frowned in surprise hearing Dev's speech
"What does it mean to keep my eardrum? Can anything be dangerous if Mr. Man says something about me"
Aleen thought to himself without asking directly what he was thinking of Dev. He looked around and looked at every corner of the house.
"Let's go inside. Aleen, this is my home. I haven't bought it for a long time so it's still a bit messy and doesn't have much stuff yet. If you want something to put here, then you can say it directly so I can prepare it".
Dev gave Aleen a little explanation, but Aleen was again astonished by what Dev said. In this house it seems that everything is complete.
"Dev, what else is missing from this house?It seems like everything is filled up well. Even many display items that are valuable and look expensive" Aleen said, looking back and forth.
"It's good if you feel that way. If you think there is less, just say it. Because from now on you'll be staying here, so I want to make yourself comfortable".
"alright. I got it"
Aleen responded while blushing in embarrassment.
"Ini sudah larut malam. Kalian istirahatlah. Pak Man, tolong tunjukkan kamar mereka dan siapkan kotak p3k. Bi, tolong bantu Aleen membersihkan luka-lukanya".
Dev memberikan instruksi dengan sikap yang ramah.
"Apa perlu saya panggilkan dokter". Pak Man menyela Dev mendengar Aleen terluka.
"Tidak perlu. Pak Man tidak perlu repot-repot". Aleen ikut menyela agar tidak memanggil dokter.
"Pak Man dengar sendiri kan?".
"Iya, tuan muda. Saya mengerti. Silahkan sebelah sini. Saya akan antar anda berdua ke kamar masing-masing"
Aleen mengangguk menanggapi tawaran pak Man. Dia dan bibi akhirny langsung mengikuti pak Man dari belakang.
Sementara itu Dev langsung mengeluarkan ponselnya dari saku celana setelah melihat Aleen pergi. Dia bergegas menghubungi Seseorang melalui telepon"
Tuut tuut tuut
Cukup lama Dev menunggu panggilan telepon tersebut diangkat.
"Halo, tuan Dev".
Terdengar suara seorang pemuda dari seberang telpon.
"Halo, Ray. Aku memiliki sesuatu untuk kamu cari tahu".
Dev langsung bicara tanpa basa-basi
"Silahkan katakan".
"Cari tahu semua informasi tentang keluarga Prasetyo. Aku tidak ingin ada satu hal pun yang terlewat dari keluarga itu. Kamu mengerti"
"Baik, Tuan. Saya akan laporkan semuanya ada anda"
Ray menyanggupi dengan patuh permintaan Dev. Dia adalah orang kepercayaan Dev dan selalu membantunya menyelesaikan setiap masalah yang dihadapi Dev.
"Bagus. Aku akan membuat mereka semua membayar kembali apa yang sudah mereka lakukan pada Aleena selama ini!"
