The Tough Trio And Elena
Chapter 14 Caught Wet

After confirming that Miss Erin had entered her study, Arya headed straight to Prakash's room to report what she had investigated to Prakash.

"What is Aldo's motive for going so far?"

"I think he wants to drop Steven's name, mas. Looks like he wanted Steven to make a fatal mistake so that his papa would get angry and decide to replace Steven with him."

"Till that far?"

"Yes, he does seem to want to rule the company. Though currently his position in the company is very good as Director of Operations. But that still wasn't enough for him."

"Hopefully we can stop the action, yes. Oh yes, this is Mr.'s address. Neru as you asked for it"

"Okay, thank you, ma'am. I wanted to find this address. I'll tell you again."

"Yes, don't forget to always be vigilant and careful, yes"

"Good, mas"

Then Arya returned to the hotel to rest for a while.

In the afternoon Arya hails a taxi from the hotel to Mr. Nervous. He hopes it's not too late.

After finding the apartment where Mr. Neru lives, Arya knocks on the door of the apartment, but there is no answer. He was worried that Mr. Neru had indeed left to return home as he said to the office.

Arya was just about to walk out of the apartment building when she saw someone coming out of the apartment door she had knocked on. Is that Mr. The neru? But why didn't he open the door when I knocked on it? Thought Arya.

Then Arya decided to ask that person.

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Neru?"

The man was shocked to see Arya. He did not answer Arya's question but ran away. Arya immediately ran after the man. When it was close, that person whose body was large height instantly hit Arya.

Arya did the fight and there was a pretty fierce fistfight. Then someone else came not to break up, but to help Arya. Finally the alleged Mr. Neru is defeated and Arya takes him back to her apartment with the person who helped Arya earlier for interrogation.

"Thank you for helping me. But if I may know who you are?"

"Yes, equally. I'm Rami. I was sent by Mr. Simmons to keep an eye on Aldo while helping you"

"So you were sent by Steven?"

"Yes"

After that Arya interrogates Mr. Nervous. He claimed to have been given large sums of money by someone to scramble CCTV at Prakash's office two days ago, while the man was in action in Erin's study. It turns out that the tape is an old tape that was deliberately installed to close Aldo's action two days ago.

He said Aldo did something on Miss Erin's computer to steal the company's data which he would later sell to other companies to bring down Prakash's company.

It is likely that in the near future Aldo will make the transaction.

"When exactly will he make the transaction?"

"Tomorrow night."

"Please don't report me to the police. I have a child who is very young and sick"

"Is your mom really sick?"

"No. My mother is dead. But my son is really sick and I need a lot of money for my son"

"I have no right to decide anything. I'll give it back to your boss"

"Do you know which hotel Aldo is staying at?"

"Yes I know, because at the hotel I had an appointment to meet with him"

Then Mr. Neru mentioned the name of the hotel in question. After that Arya called Prakash. He will give up Mr.'s business. Neru to Prakash. Then he took Mr. Eat and drink at a nearby restaurant.

The next morning, Arya returns to see Prakash in his office. They're going to devise a plan to thwart Aldo's plan.

Prakash then calls Miss Erin again to ask how he knows Aldo, as well as find out if Miss Erin is really involved or just utilized by Aldo.

"According to you, was Miss Erin honest?"

"Eitherway. His feelings are honest and are only utilized by Aldo. All this time he's been working very well for the company"

"So you're still going to entrust Miss Erin to keep working at the company?"

"Yes, I'm still going to hire him here. I think he'd be disappointed to know the truth about Aldo."

"Surely so, my mother."

By nightfall, Prakash and Arya are getting ready to go to Aldo's place of transaction as informed by Mr. Nervous. Prakash also brought some men to help them.

Because Prakash and Arya need evidence, they will record Aldo's actions first to thwart his plans. Prakash has not involved or reported Aldo to the police because he will hand Aldo over to Papi Steven first.

Eventually Aldo and a prospective buyer from another company arrived. As they are about to finish, Prakash and Arya show up to thwart their actions.

Aldo was temporarily detained at the hotel where he stayed with some of Prakash's men and Mr. Hemp. The plan is tomorrow morning they will take Aldo to the family home Hans Simmons - Papi Steven, with still accompanied by several guards.

Arya will escort Aldo with Mr. Rami and some of Prakash's men arrive at Steven's family home safely. It is likely that Prakash and his family will arrive at Eyang's birthday place on time. Because the show only started at night.

When the plan was supposed to go smoothly, on Saturday morning they planned to return to Indonesia, Aldo instead fled after tricking the guards. Prakash will be preparing to board the plane when Arya contacts him.

Then Arya asked for the address of Miss Erin, and after arriving at Miss Erin's place, as Arya guessed it turned out Aldo was there and took Erin hostage. Fortunately Mr. Rami swiftly returned to thwart Aldo's plan. Aldo was arrested again and they immediately left for the airport to take Aldo.

After arriving at the airport, Arya finally gave word to Dimas and Steven. He has not explained the details, just the outline. But he promised to explain everything after arriving at Steven's family home.

Steven also seems to have to prepare to explain what happened to his Papi. Hopefully after this incident Aldo became deterred and did not repeat his actions again.

Arya still feels that Aldo will not be silent after this event so she is not sure if he will arrive at the birthday party Eyang on time. If that happens he will contact Dimas to convey to Eyang about his delay.
