Enmeshed in Love
Chapter 24

After Rena fell asleep, Ben turned his gaze out the window. He paused for a moment and then got out of his bed. Only wear boxers without tops. He came out of the room, his goal was Liliana's room. This man had always vented such a great desire to Rena, because Liliana had always refused lately on the grounds of being tired or coming to the moon.

The man did not bother him too much because there was still Rena who was willing to do it. Serving himself to satisfaction.

Chequek..

Ben, taking a quick glance at Rena makes sure the woman doesn't wake up. After believing Rena is sleeping soundly Ben immediately closed the door.

Along with that Rena woke up. The woman cupped her face and cried so bitterly.

"why are you treating me like a paid woman.when are you going to marry me Ben." His issue.

Rena is so fragile. He was really tortured by the reality, but could not be separated because this was his choice. He was forced to be in this house because no one else would accept him at this time. Her mother and sister no longer admit it, Echa maybe even the girl now does not remember it and Arfian has clearly closed her heart.

Rena hurriedly got up, cleaned herself up then dressed neatly. He took his phone and his bag, maybe a walk at night will calm his mind a little.

He hopes to meet Arfian. His longing for the man was so great, Rena could not deny it.

"Rega, don't be like this. aunt's gonna see it." Sena pushed the body of Rega who was about to embrace her.

Honestly, he was happy with what Rega said. The man bluntly said he loved her. But, in his current position he could not accept that declaration of love. Sena promised Rada.

"but just so you know, Arfian's brother asked me to be honest with you, he doesn't love you Sena." Rega clasped Sena's hand tightly. "tell me honestly. Do you love me?"

Sena was worried. He loved Rega very much, and he always liked her. But, even Madam Rada's request could not be ignored. Afraid that he might get angry and throw her out of the house.

Drt..Drt...

His phone was ringing pretty hard. Sena immediately pulled her hand, opening the incoming message.

"Sena, why is it so long. You're home right? get back to the hospital as soon as aunty's alone. Arfian's out for a while."

The message that Madam Rada sent made Sena rush away without saying anything to Rega.

"Sena..Where are you going? who sent the message?" Shouted Rega while chasing after him.

Sena didn't budge, stopped the taxi and got on. He deliberately avoided Rega. In the taxi, Sena was pensive. The shadow of Rega's face pleading with her could not be lost. His heart felt uncomfortable because of that. Feeling very outrageous to her, ignoring her love.

"sorry lady, where are you going?" The taxi driver opened his voice because Sena had just been silent and did not say the destination.

"aaah..iya.the hospital of Our Lady." The answer is a little shame.

The taxi driver stopped his car making Sena frown.

"why stop?" He asked in wonder, when the car he was riding was turning back.

"why not say from earlier.the hospital is already gone." Ketus the driver, maybe because annoyed with the behavior of Sena who he thought was playing games.

"forgive me." Sena feels really guilty. "I'll add to her tip."

...**********************...

Rena ran like a doormat so heard that Echa was not yet conscious. All this time he thought, his daughter had been healthy again and might live happily with Arfian. But when she accidentally meets Rihanna, the woman arrogantly taunts Rena. Saying that he is the one who is now in his position first, every day accompany Rada in the hospital. Always be next to Arfian at all times. Although there was actually a little lie from his words.

Brakes...

The door of the Echa room opened wide, the culprit of course Rena. With a breath he walked in. His eyes were fixed on Echa who was lying on the bed. He did not realize that in the corner, in the chair near the window there was Madam Rada who looked at him dislike.

"what are you here for?" Rada prevents Rena from getting close to her granddaughter.

"ma'am, let me see echa."

"no. you're not her mother anymore. Get out of here."

Rena was crying, slumped on the floor. Too sad, confused and angry at himself who has been too selfish. Not knowing what to say, he was only able to shed his tears.

"mom.me.please.."

Rada did not budge at all. He was already very angry and disappointed towards Rena.

"sister Rena.bibi..." Sena stood in the doorway, looking at the two in confusion.

"Sena, drag this woman."

"sir."

Rena stood up slowly at Sena's help. He wiped his tears. Rada's anger is natural. But, he really can't accept this.

Sighing in rough breaths restrained the anger. He quickly brushed aside Sena's hand that touched his arm.

"you can't do this to me. I'm his mother, you shouldn't stop me from seeing it." Shouted Rena, not realizing that she had done too much wrong to Echa.

Choked rada. His surprised face made Sena heartless.

"no, don't talk to auntie like that."

Sena said slowly. Looking at the face of Rena who still put on an angry face. This woman doesn't seem to care if Rada is her mother.

"don't lecture me." Ketus Rena, pushing Sena's body hard to fall to the floor.

"Sena.." Rada immediately approached her. "what the fuck are you."

Rena brushed off Rada's hand holding the hand. He is very angry because he was stopped from meeting Echa.

"Echa my daughter. Does my mother's right forbid me to see her?" Rena's eyes stared intently at Rada.

"of course entitled. I'm her grandmother. You've given custody of Echa to Arfian, even when you know her critical condition you don't care at all. You prefer to go with the man."

Madam Rada can't take it anymore. He pulled Rena's hand, dragging her roughly out. Rena also violently let go of her hand to make Madam Rada fall down. The old woman couldn't help it, her head hit the door hard enough.

Sena reflexes ran over and hugged madam Rada who was in pain.

Rena was surprised by what she did. He was unintentionally. His actions were completely outside of his mind.

"mom.." Rena was about to touch Madam Rada, but Sena stopped her. He did not accept Rena's treatment of Miss Rada.

"please, brother, go." He said courageously. Not scared at all.

"hush, I'm not talking to you." Snappy Rena on Sena.

"what's this?" Arfian ran in panic when he saw Madam Rada's forehead spitting out blood. He looked at Sena asking for an explanation.

"sister Rena did it." Answer Sena.

"no, arfian, I accidentally.." Rena was so afraid to see Arfian's sharp gaze that it seemed as if it would swallow her alive.

"how dare you." Arfian drags Rena out and brings Miss Rada inside.

She violently closes the door and asks Sena to drive Rena out.

...********************...

Rihanna was silent for a long time at the door. He breathed repeatedly, his chest feeling tight from thinking too much about Arfian. I don't know why, it doesn't feel like it's gone. Arfian continuously interrupted his thoughts.

Chequek...

Door opens. Rihanna was aghast, she was holding her chest that was racing with shock.

"mother.just surprise."

"you're wrong yourself, why stand at the door."

"humm...mom, do you know that Ben's brother is still in contact with that woman?"

"ck.don't talk anymore.I don't want to hear it. Ben why fell in love with a poor woman plus she's a widow."

"yes, the taste is ugly."

They didn't like Rena so much because of the different castes. I used to vehemently oppose the relationship to ask Ben to vote. It used to be possible that Ben preferred what his father said because he could not make money on his own but this time he was so stubborn, maintaining his relationship with Rena. No matter what the treasure will be inherited.

Or because she has Liliana, the wealthy woman who can sustain everything.
