Melissa, The Lost Memory
Chapter Thirty Eight

"Why did you become like this, Mel? That man has really brainwashed you!" ari snapped with a huff while tracing her waist as Melissa told her to stop from the report made by her.

"Don't involve yourself in this matter! I know, though I don't remember it completely. You are a good man, Ari. And I don't want you to get hurt with all this."

Melissa repeatedly pleads for Ari to let go of her revenge by retracting a report that will make her even more hostile with Brad. Because Melissa was convinced, there would be bloodshed if she didn't immediately remind Ari of this.

Ari increasingly does not understand the woman he has always loved. Is this how Melissa saw it? Melissa considers him unfit for Brad.

A VIP waiting room at one of the workshops in the Tendean area witnessed two friends who defended their assumptions.

"Have you fallen in love with her? Until you defended her?"

Melissa didn't expect that Ari would ask her something like this? Both of Melissa's beads could barely contain the fall of the clear bulir. However, Melissa tried to keep looking strong and elegant.

He stood up and looked at Ari's face deeply, "Do you know me well, Ari? If true, you shouldn't have to ask such a question!" Melissa then turned away with the intention of leaving her friend who she valued was outrageous.

"Wait, Mel ... I'm sorry! I shouldn't be like that to you, "Ari restrained Melissa's departure by catching her hand and holding her tightly so that Melissa could never leave again.

Fortunately, Resti immediately ran to his boss' wife because he felt that Melissa was in danger.

"Mom, we don't have much time. You can be suspicious if we're in the workshop too long!"

It's true what Resti said. Like his schedule this morning. Melissa was accompanied by Resti doing monthly maintenance at her subscription workshop. This time, he used to meet with Ari who came first before Melissa and Brad's men arrived at the car service workshop.

Fortunately, Melissa's bodyguard didn't realize that there was a meeting between Melissa and her friend Ari inside the VIP waiting room.

"Mel, I'm sorry!"

"I have to leave immediately, sorry!" Melissa threw Ari's hand and left as Resti had intended.

On the way, Melissa was still ringing with questions from Ari for her. Mel doesn't think Ari will bring up the problem. Especially if he loves Brad so forget the plan to leave the husband as alleged by Ari.

"Why should he ask the question that the answer is so impossible?" melissa muttered in the back seat of the driver.

"What, Mom?" Resti chimed in on Melissa and felt if Melissa asked him.

"It's okay, Res. I just feel anxious."

"Mom Melissa had a lot of thoughts. I know, Mom's a good man. And you're good to us, and even I intend to help you secretly."

"Mother rest, tonight we have to accompany you, right?"

"He'em." Melissa nodded confirming Resti's words. Because tonight he will follow the live broadcast to make sure if his men work well.

MC: "Good night, Mr. Brad Owen Rifaldi member of the PBKB faction and member of the three DPR RI commissions."

The rumbling sounds of the audience in the studio have welcomed Brad's arrival at their show.

Brad: "Good night, Miss Renita Lestari."

MC: "Talk With at night is flattered by your arrival, in addition to being busy as a representative of the people, he said, your busyness in the party making some interviews either live or re-broadcast is very difficult to bring you."

The praise of the presenter made the audience's applause even more boisterous, because in addition to being known as a politician, Brad has also branded himself as a politician who is familiar with the blusukan to the bottom to attract sympathy.

On the occasion tonight, in addition to wanting to greet the viewers. Brad also wants to put an end to misunderstandings about the alleged money laundering directed at him.

Brad has become one of the biggest investors in the company. However, he did not say if the capital he planted in the form of hot money he obtained from dredging state money.

In addition to working as a politician, Brad also likes to play stocks and invest his wealth in several large companies in the country. Not wanting to be in the business world, is the reason Brad is reluctant to lead the company and appoint a director to oversee and run the business.

At the end of the show, Brad apologized for opening his identity too late and making people guess. And he said a lot of thanks because the people have entrusted themselves as representatives of the people. And most of all, "Thank you to my wife, she is the one who gives me encouragement and is willing to be together in joy and sorrow."

Brad's remarks at the event received praise from the presenter and also the audience in the studio. Until they all gave a boisterous applause to one of the representatives of the people.

"Bu l sh it! it was all a lie, in fact you ... "

Melissa looked at the man whom the audience was so fond of her from near the director on duty tonight.

As soon as the show was declared over, Brad was welcome to leave the HTV studio. Brad's departure was followed by Melissa who had been silent beside him.

"Why shut up? Are you so proud of your husband, Mel?" Brad's question jolts Melissa's daydream.

"Em .. I'm relieved, this problem can be resolved." Melissa replied briefly.

"All this is thanks to my wife, what gift do you want?" With this help, Brad wants to appreciate Melissa by choosing his own gift.

"Can I ask for anything? Even though it's so hard to get?"

"Anything? I'll try to give it to you, honey."

"What if I want ... " Melissa cut her talk because, she had a hard time asking for the things she dreamed of from Brad.

"Whatever I'll give you! Besides farewell." Brad put his hand on the frame of his car door before Melissa came in so that the wife's head wouldn't hit the car door.

Melissa looked at the old man more and more cynically and asked, "Why do you think that I want to part? Do you want to get married again?"

"Mahaha ... Melissa, Melissa! you're so funny."

"What if I ask for your life, Brad?"

"Why don't you want all my money? But if you want my life, then I'll give it to you?" brad answered with laughter and sat down next to his wife who was now beginning to sing her red lips.

Melissa was upset that Brad had been teasing her.
