"So, you're gonna pay me triple?"
Reza and his family nodded excitedly, the man even directly thrust a blank check at Masha.
"You'll have to write the nominal you want, but you also have to make sure that we're the ones who'll win the case!"
Masya smiled widely, she took what the man thrust out. The happy laughter was clearly drawn on the face of Reza and her family, they were already impatient to bring Zia to live with them.
"i'm sure you'll do your best, Masya!"
his boss was happy to see the obedience of his members, he felt his upbringing had been successful on them.
Masya laughed more and more at the words of the human who was in front of him at this time, he then put back and thrust the check in his hand.
Suddenly, the happiness and laughter that was on Reza's face and his family disappeared instantly. They stared intently at Masya who was again putting down their gifts.
"Thank you for the very tempting offer, I as a lawyer downstairs feel happy with the offer you-you gave!"
Masya gave a big smile, so that his smile was able to hypnotize those who just silently looked at him.
"i'm sorry, but I can't accept any of this. As a lawyer, I uphold honesty and truth. I was happy, but my pride and honor felt like I was being traded!"
"so, you still refused their offer, Masya?"
the question posed by his superiors was filled with emphasis, showing his dislike for the rejection that Masya did.
Slowly Masya got up, she tidied up her slightly tangled clothes. Masya took a deep breath with the strong and resolute gaze she placed on all of them.
"Really, Sir! I still reject the case, then I'll excuse myself to return to my room. Thank you!"
A tense atmosphere filled with anger filled the room, Reza and her family felt unaccepted and unappreciated.
"You'll be sorry, you've turned down our offer!"
Masya smiled again, the hand that was holding the door handle was forced back he lowered it and turned to face the source of the sound.
"i'll wait for the regret you mean, sir! see you in court!"
Clamps, Brak! The sound of closed doors echoed in the silence of the room, the man who was the superior status of Masya felt emotion seeing the behavior of his subordinates.
Reza and his family were no less emotional, they demanded to the middle-aged man about all this.
"you don't have to worry, I'll give you a better lawyer than him, and I'll make sure you win the case!"
miris sounded, but that was the case in general. The highest office-holder is the ruler who rules everything at will, forgets himself and forgets sin. To block any means to achieve a goal, by taking down others.
Masya Nazeeva will not let the truth lose to power, now she already knows who her opponent is and it makes her more excited like embers are doused in gasoline.
Meanwhile, Arthur and Lili who had arrived home were immediately reviled by a myriad of questions from Mama Rose.
Like a journalist who asks from foot to head, making the answer becomes upset.
"Well, that's how it is! i'm tired!"
Arthur got up and passed to his room accompanied by a sharp glare from everyone's eyes, Zia who saw the man's departure followed like a metal hit by a magnet.
"what's tired? only his mouth moves!" sewot Mama Roses with a sigh that also sounds tired.
Lili chuckled, Arthur and his Mama have always been like mice and cats that could never get along.
It did not feel like the day was getting late, Lili and Zia immediately decided to return home by taxi. Initially Arthur will drive them, but Lili rejects him on the grounds that he will visit a friend's house.

The days continue to change, Zia's custody case has been up the court shirt making Masya preoccupied with all preparations.
Things had to be well prepared, so that he could instantly lash out an attack until his opponent could not get back up.
"Yup, it's all done. Tomorrow is the time to fight them! Huh, surely many will drop me!"
Masya got up from the floor, because his habit in composing the file is in a wide and low place.
"Tok Tok, is the bike finished?"
"You want what you? you're bullies!"
The man opened the door and entered Masya's room, of course regardless of the girl's words.
"Yes, God! you want to solve a case, or you want to fight against *******?"
The man's eyes moved to and fro looking at all the scattered files, no longer looking like a broken ship, but an exploding ship.
"if you came just to make a dizzy, better get out!"
The nudge mode bit bacok Masya give, but the man still santuy commenting here and there.
"you're only handling child custody cases, not cases of adulterated wives. Why are there so many preparations?"
The man was astonished that the child custody case would not be as complicated as other household cases but Masya's preparations were already as high as a hanging mountain.
"this is no ordinary case, I've been under pressure here and there! maybe if I get pressured again, I'll be straight off!"
"you think you're the horses, which I can ride?"
The man laughed, indeed his words were funny to hear but made Masya become angry.
"basic crazy man! why is it horse riding?"
Masya shook his head because suddenly the shadow of him being a horse ridden by the man crossed his head.
"Are we daydreaming?"
"Horse!"
Masya who was surprised by the clap on his shoulder reflex to mention the name of the horse, made the man link his eyebrows.
"horse? you want to play horses with me?"
"w-what, I'm just saying that my neighbor's horse got loose!"
nervously struck, his usual ketus face now turned crimson until his ears.
"Oh, if you want to play horses with me! Funny loh!"
The man raised his eyebrows, trying to jump at the temptation that could lead women astray.
"be quiet you brengs*ek! what exactly did you come here for?"
Masya tried to stay fierce even though her chest was rumbling like a drum to war.
"oh yeah, I forgot! I'd like to ask you for your case data, but you were on a private line!"
Masya also almost forgot, because usually all the cases that enter will go through the man. But this time he went through a private line because Arthur asked for it.
"Start!"
Masya switched to taking the data of Lili and her daughter, as well as the case she will handle in court later.
"Here, go!"
The man received the file in Masya's hand with his mouth forward a few inches, he then checked the file so that nothing was left behind.
"fish ... Lilies?"
