It's been ten minutes of walking. Nathan was still unmoved as he looked at Leo who was sitting before him. Eldar is seen standing on Nathan's left side to mediate in case there might be a great debate.
"I'm getting no taste for marriage." Nathan started the conversation.
"What do you mean?"
"Why did you marry her?" Ask Nathan again.
"Who?"
"I'sabella Anastasia."
"It's pointless to answer."
"There certainly is."
"It has nothing to do with work." Leo was about to leave but Nathan's words made him stand stare." Please repeat?" Imbuh Leo slowly. There was a feeling of fear on his face.
"You're having an affair with your foster son. I confused? Why were you so angry when you saw me with Bella? Shouldn't you understand because you did too." Nathan chuckled loudly. Leo's ugliness is increasingly visible and makes his feelings so happy.
"Don't you just talk?"
"Would I bring in the man who married you?" Saliva Leo swallowed rough. No word of apology has been said to Bella, but a threat from Nathan cornered her." The choice is two. Divorce or break up your relationship." Nathan threatened.
"You're having a big deal."
"Yes. That they may acknowledge my superiority."
"Only for that?"
"Hm yes. I want to win a bet." Eldar let out a long breath. He was in the middle of a crazy debate between two men who were equally insane.
"I can't believe that's all."
"Indeed it's just that. After the bet I won. Bella won't be my shadow. You get a high post and I get a confession. How's Le?"
Nathan's offer sounded very comforting especially now Leo feels cornered. If he refuses, Nathan will leak his cheating. But if Leo accepts, his high office and cheating will remain safe despite his unwillingness.
"You'll marry her." Ask Leo slowly. Want to ascertain his worries.
"where possible. All this I'm doing is betting not on love let alone marriage." Leo. There was bad intent behind that smile.
After they recognized Nathan's superiority. This problem is automatically forgotten. Once that happens, I'll sulk Bella to come back and apologize. Haha. My family's dignity is maintained and the bonus, I get a high position in this big company.
"Hows it? I don't have much time." Nathan asked urgently.
"Hm. Give me until tomorrow."
Nathan smiled knot. Of course the offer will be a powerful weapon to separate between Bella and Leo. He began to imagine victory and a confession that would be heard from his friends.
Pity. That was all Eldar could say from the heart to Bella. He is unable to stop Nathan's outrageous madness.
I hope this will backfire on you, sir. When you want a wedding, you will find it difficult to achieve it.
Eldar chose to leave after the word consensus was reached. He hopes this is the last time Nathan ruined someone's relationship just for confession. For Eldar was fed up when a sacred marriage was belittled.
You'll get better men than they do Miss Isabella. I'm convinced.

Bella chose to lie down all day even though her stomach felt sore. Since this morning he has not touched the food due to the series of events that happened to him.
His mind floated off somewhere, as if hunger was beginning to affect the way his brain worked.
Occasionally Bella sat down and gulped water to reduce hunger. He had no intention of killing himself and still wanted to live. But apparently Bu Rita did not also open the door even though it was almost evening.
Until when the door remains locked. What does Mama want? Why didn't he see my situation or at least feed me.
Eluh Bella in the heart. The gaze focused on the doorknob and hoped that Bu Rita would end her sentence.
Cklek..
Soon Bella sat down as the doorknob moved. But his face looks upset when he sees Leo entering while carrying a tray.
"Eat." Pinta Leo was awkward as well. A little hard to start the conversation.
"Hm." Bella does not talk much and directly devours the food given by Leo.
"sorry. Um.. He wants you." Bella turned.
"That guy?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"You misunderstood me. I'm.."
"So?" As much as possible Bella does not show disappointment even though she knows the end of the conversation will be anchored to the word separation.
"You know the answer."
"Hm pretty know Mas." His answer was softly inaudible.
"I had to."
"Hm it's okay. I don't feel like living here either. You know not if I'm jealous." Bella tried to smile in the midst of a strong heartache. I'm sure this is the best way. I no longer want to deal with that insane man even if my marriage has to be..
Bella's breath was heavy. Not believing the reality that happened but he also difficult to share. Bella is not yet aware of the marriage of Leo and Lisa. But it cannot be denied if he is already uncomfortable to see Leo's treatment on Lisa.
"He's just a kid.."
"Say, then let it all be done." Bella's heart is firm. Leo looked at her while trying to touch Bella's left fingers.
"I'm sorry."
"Don't beat around. Be a man of principle." Bella replied urgently. He avoids Leo's finger touch by shifting his body away.
"From today you're not my wife anymore."
"Yes, yeah."
Bella's body seemed to shake, as Leo spoke a word that had never been thought of before. But he tried not to point to disappointment and tried to broaden his heart.
"This afternoon I'll take you home and explain everything to your parents." You'd better go quietly so Nathan doesn't change his mind. I'm still afraid she broke her promise and then turned around and married you.
"No need to. I'm still not ready to go home and make a surprise for my Mama's heart."
"So? You want me to find a contract?" Ask Leo to offer.
"No. It's no longer your responsibility. I still have jewelry from my old job." Bella puts the tray down because her appetite is collapsing.
"Just calm. I'm not gonna stop transferring money to your account for Mama's treatment."
"No." Bella walks into the closet to get her wallet. He returned the ATM card to Leo and even put down the jewelry box after taking some of his own." They are my parents and my responsibility. After this I'll get a job." Leo took a long breath. He was afraid that Nathan would give Bella a job.
"They've been considered my parents."
"I'm not stupid. I can compare sincere and non-conformist attitudes. You half-heartedly give help. But I tried to accept it because I wanted to obey your rules to stay home and not work. But what I got..." Bella let out a long sigh while putting the clothes in the bag.
"He urged me."
"Yes. I'm just disappointed that the breakup feels so easy."
"You how else."
"The right decision. I also feel unaccepted here." Bella extended her hand towards Leo.
"Where will you live? You better not refuse help. I'll find you a contract." Bella lowered her hand again.
"It's over. I don't want to see you again." Bella walked out with her big bag.
"Tomorrow Bella, it's almost evening." Shouted Leo trying to prevent. She follows Bella who is already standing opposite Lisa.
"Where are you going?" Ask Lisa.
"Don't pretend. You like to see this."
As if I was tired of thinking. Bella considers if her suspicions have been true. Leo has betrayed so much that a marriage that should not be easily broken must be damaged in a short time.
"Why did Mama answer that."
"I'm not your Mama."
"I told you not to involve her, Bella. I want to split up because of that man's threat." Leo's defense increasingly makes Bella's mind more cloudy.
"You are now free. No need to make a show. I'm no longer your wife and that means there won't be any women protesting against your disgusting making."
"I still love you." Lisa breathed a heavy breath. He was upset when Leo said that sentence.
"I'm not."
"Easy that? I wish we'd get back together someday."
"It's this easy." Bella took the tissue and put it on her palm. He blew it slowly and automatically the tissue fell down." I've thrown it down." Pointing to a piece of tissue lying down." Do you know why it's so easy to fall?" Leo exhaled heavily as if he could read the anger on Bella's face.
"Why?" Leo's voice was barely heard.
"Athen you're as thin as a tissue. Easy to tear and easy to crumble. I'm leaving." Bella continued her steps while holding back the tears that almost spilled. Although Bella knows this is not entirely Leo's fault, but for a long time she realized it had been ignored.
