Married for Slander
Chapter 40.

One Week Later...

"Hello sir, the house has been rehabilitated. The shop has also been renovated as you wish. We've also bought the necessary tools, just stay occupied."

"All right, thank you."

From the gazebo behind the villa, Rizal just got a call from someone. After the phone connection was cut off, he sipped his coffee until the toilet then walked away from the park.

Yes, after one week passed, now Rizal can breathe with relief. Finally he was able to realize the dream of Alana who used to want to open a cake shop, Rizal had also prepared a house for her.

Presumably Rizal has given up on getting Alana's heart. Every time she tried, Alana always said the same thing. Now Rizal does not want to press him again, maybe God does not predestine them to mate.

Upon arrival in the room, Rizal sat down by the side of the bed. He looked at Alana who was asleep and grabbed her hand, Rizal grasped it with a soft heart.

Yes, it feels like Rizal can't afford to lose Alana a second time, but anyway Rizal must sincerely let go. He had no right to hold Alana in that villa.

Faintly Alana also caught Rizal's face, he was aghast and quickly opened his eyes and pulled his hand violently until it slipped from Rizal's grasp.

"What are you doing here?" alana asked with sharp glaring eyes, she was angry to see Rizal who was too presumptuous to enter the room.

Rizal smiled bitterly and immediately moved away from Alana, he realized he should not have snatched in without excuse.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to be presumptuous. I just wanted to say something, I-I"

Rizal was silent for a moment and chose to sit on the sofa. "I want to ask you one more time. Do I really have no hope of having you?"

This past week, I don't know how many times Rizal asked Alana the same thing, but the girl still gave a similar answer.

Alana has no more feelings for Rizal, whom she knows is still Azzam's legitimate wife. Although their relationship does not know where to take it, but Alana is very confident in her feelings.

Alana also did not expect to return to Azzam, she knew now the situation was different. She's just a disabled woman, there's no way Azzam would accept it.

Alana just wants to be alone, she doesn't want to depend on anyone. He even tried to escape from the villa but unfortunately he could not do it.

Now that Alana has to rely on a wheelchair, she can't walk as usual.

"Well, I'll let you go, but promise not to hate me. Consider me your brother, I will keep an eye on you." added Rizal.

After saying that, he passed away leaving Alana who was thinking. What did Rizal mean just now?

Not long after, a waiter came and helped Alana sit in a wheelchair and pushed her out of the room.

Arriving in the yard, Alana Plangak plongok saw a standby car to carry it. There is also Rizal who is sitting on the front bench.

A driver approached Alana, she and the waiter helped the girl in and sat in the middle seat, and the two got into the car.

Alana was silent for a moment while looking at Rizal who was sitting in front of her. The man said nothing, he just focused on looking ahead.

After Alana is taken down, Rizal comes down and pushes the wheelchair occupied by the girl. They both entered the house followed by a driver and a waiter.

Then Rizal takes Alana to the main room, where Alana will spend her days without Rizal or Azzam.

Rizal does not know how their relationship will run later, which surely he sincerely prepared all this for the woman he loved so much.

Arriving in the room, Rizal pushes Alana's wheelchair to the side of the bed. Before leaving, he squatted at the girl's feet.

"Let's stay here! I hope you feel at home even though this house is not as luxurious as your husband's house. I have also prepared a cake shop, you can develop it as you wish. The driver and waiter will accompany you in this house, I will pay his salary every month. You don't need to think about anything, just focus on your health!"

Rizal clasped Alana's hand and kissed her, his heart breaking saying it all. If there was still a little taste left for him, maybe Rizal would be the happiest man in the world. But in reality, all that sense had already disappeared with his departure.

This time Alana was only silent as Rizal clasped his hand, there was no rejection like before.

Yeah, Alana feels guilty for everything that happened. If at that time she did not meet Azzam and help him, maybe she would be very happy to accept Rizal as her husband.

However, fate has determined the line of their hands. Alana can not accept Rizal, she realizes her status is still the wife of people. After all Alana still hoped to meet her husband, she could not possibly betray Azzam.

"It's okay, I understand how you feel. Love cannot be forced." added Rizal while rubbing Alana's head.

The girl suddenly cried looking at the sincerity in Rizal's heart. Yeah, that guy's too nice, so good Alana doesn't deserve this.

"I can't stay here, I-I"

"Please, this time don't refuse, just consider this the help of an older brother!" sela Rizal, she can't possibly let Alana go back to Desi's house. Rizal knew that the woman did not like Alana for a long time.

"But-"

"I'm sincere, this is all for you. Didn't I promise? Now that I've kept it." Rizal cut, he's really sincere about giving it all to Alana.

"All right, thank you. Sorry that I let you down, I had no intention of betraying you, it all happened unintentionally." Alana looked at Rizal wryly, her tears dripping down her cheeks.

"Here, don't talk about it anymore. Now we start over, yeah, you want to be my best friend?" Rizal commented a smile while extending his hand.

Alana forced herself to smile and shook Rizal's hand. "Again thanks."

"In friendship there is no such thing as thank you. Remember, I will always accompany you until you find your happiness again." said Rizal.

Alana didn't know what else to say, the man was too good to be a friend. However, Alana also could not resist, maybe this was the best for both of them.

After convincing Alana, Rizal left the house. He couldn't linger, there was still work he had to finish.

After Rizal left, Alana cried. She was grateful to have known Rizal and loved him. He felt guilty for hurting such a man.

But Alana also can not fight destiny, she is reunited with Azzam who is now her husband. Alana could not possibly forget her status as a wife.
