ALOVA Special Prisoner
Chapter 10 Mariska Affects Brata

Mariska looks around the living room and kitchen that looks silent, she slowly goes into Brata's room when she does not see anyone including Nur and Ken.

Yes, Ken was indeed out while Nur was probably taking a bath this afternoon. Ken's men were on guard outside.

"How are you doing?" mariska asked pleasantries when she saw Brata staring out the window. The man in the wheelchair looked back and then looked straight ahead.

"As you can see!" answered Brata coldly.

This was the first time Mariska had been in her room during her illness. During this year, he and Mariska had indeed separated rooms. Brata no longer wants to room with Mariska because she once caught his wife with another man in a luxury hotel.

Brata did not divorce Mariska because the woman continued to beg and apologize. He also did not want the collapse of their household raises issues and bad news that will affect the good name of the family and the company.

Mariska smiled wryly. She walked over and squatted in front of her husband's wheelchair.

"I have one important piece of news for you" Mariska said, staring at Brata.

Brata just shut up. He didn't say anything. Yes, the man was indeed more silent after the incident some time ago that almost took his life.

"You don't know yet, do you?" Mariska grinning.

"The company you built for years is bankrupt." Mariska laughed.

"It is your beloved daughter who has broken down everything you have built!"

"Your daughter, in an instant made all your efforts over the years go to waste."

Brata looked at him expressionlessly. Mariska herself could not interpret the meaning of that gaze. Is it angry, or surprised?

Is your heartbeat starting to get unstable, Brata? Inner Mariska.

Mariska looked around the spacious room. Then he laughed. "Ah yes. No tv here?" tanyanya scoffing. "Why don't you know the news?"

"Oh!" Mariska closed her mouth and acted surprised. "Did he throw away your phone too?"

"Hahahah, it's smart that your daughter hides such a big thing." His laughter was so loose.

"Even Ken?"

"Ck! ck! ck!" the crack repeatedly while shaking slowly. "The street you picked up, which you thought was loyal, is actually working with your daughter to lie to you."

Mariska laughing. "ah! Nevermind! This is none of my business anyway."

"The company is not mine either."

Mariska stood up and left Brata still expressionless.

Mariska stopped the move. "Ah, yeah..." He turned. "Dear your daughter, lest she sell herself to a rich businessman just to pay your company's debt." Mariska laughed again and walked out of the room.

Brata smiled a little. He closed his eyes and tried to hold back his emotions.

He recalls the message of Ken, his trusted confidant.

The flashback

"Sir, I want to say something" Ken told Brata as they waited for the doctor.

Nur he ordered to return to the car to pick up something left behind. This became an opportunity for him to talk important things with Brata.

"What's up, Ken?"

Ken took a breath. "Sir, I hope you can listen to me calmly" Ken said as slowly as possible.

"Right now, Miss Lova is very busy. Many new clients came and he got 5 big projects from a big company based abroad."

Brata smiled knot. He believes his daughter can indeed bring the company to be more advanced.

"But, a few weeks earlier, there were parties who wanted to take down Bu Lova and the company." Ken holds Brata's shoulder.

Brata widened her eyes. "Then?"

"Bu Lova can handle this, sir." Ken made the old man breathe a sigh of relief.

"But there's a new task for us." Ken is trying to make Brata fight to recover.

"Bu Lova and you are still in danger."

"Attack after attack could have come without us knowing which way and from whom." What Ken meant by the attack was a new problem that could have been life threatening.

"To that end, you must stay healthy and alert. Don't be swayed by anyone including Mrs Mariska." Brata nodded.

"Hide every progress of your recovery."

"I'll force Nur to shut up."

"But why Ken?" ask Brata.

"There are two reasons, sir."

"First, the enemy will consider you not a threat as long as you are still sick."

"Hopefully." continued Ken.

Brata nods slowly to the sign that she understands Ken's intentions and goals.

"Secondly, we don't know yet, in that house who's on our side and who's stabbing us in the back."

"If the recovery of the Father until known to others, means Nur involved."

"But, Doctor Nugroho?" brata asked because it was impossible for a doctor to lie.

"I'll arrange everything."

"Doctor Nugroho won't say anything."

"All right, Ken." Brata already understands what game Ken created.

Flashback off

Brata sighed.

Thank you, Ken. You told me the truth just in time.

Mariska was aiming to make my condition go down by telling me the news.

I don't know what the main purpose is for. But I'm sure I won't lose. I won't let my daughter lose. Inner Brata.

***

Mariska walked back and forth in her room. He was worried because until this moment, Brata's condition was still fine.

"Why can he still laugh so much with Ken, that bud*ak shit*n!" Meaning slowly.

"And I tried to make his mind mess up so that his health would decline."

"Two days." he murmured furiously.

"Geez!" He's massaging his forehead. "I have two days left" he panicked.

"How can I get Lova to agree to marry Hendrico's son in two days?"

Mariska's brainwashing, making plans. "Did I just kidnap her and leave it to the family?" Mariska sat on the bed feeling unsettled.

"Don't!" He stood up again and walked back and forth. "I can be in jail."

"Mr Hendrico that might help me."

"Again, if Brata and Ken knew that they could mat*me!"

Mariska ruffled her hair. "Aargha!"

"If Brata were gone and Ken wasn't..."

Mariska was silent, and soon she smiled widely. "Oh God, thank you for this intelligence I have."

An idea gil* flashed through Mariska's mind. He was ready to go see someone.

He no longer cares about the risks. He believes he will survive all the accusations if all his plans go smoothly.

Brata is alive or not, has no effect on her. After all, she and her two daughters could not inherit as much as Lova.

It is precisely more what Mr. Hendrico offers him. Mariska has dark eyes. He justifies every way to live better than the present.

All he had in mind was money and luxury. Especially when Lova was already in control of finances in the house. He was completely helpless again. He could not be as fast as before when he asked for additional money from Brata.

Mariska wants to kill two people at once???

It worked out, didn't it? 😅
