Ben chuckled, he smiled disdainfully at the shallow thoughts of the person before him. He happily enjoyed the cake that was still intact in front of him, ignoring Baz who seemed impatient to wait for Ben to explain his continuation.
"Here you think that this is all just a game?!", Ben shook his head slowly and sipped coffee in his cup in an elegant and indifferent style typical of him.
"Victor kept an eye on your brother and father until you came. Unfortunately your father did not save his life. While your sister has not regained consciousness because she was too shocked at that time. Until finally you came with your people with panicked and angry faces. Victor, who is sitting in the distance, wants to get up to get close to you. Unfortunately someone immediately gave a report that the accident was caused by him. And there was news to bring down your father, and that was because of him. So he stayed silent while hiding his face so you wouldn't notice his presence. Victor already knows who the cause of all that is none other than Old Ergy, your father's opponent in politics", Ben explains what he knows about his investigation so far. And also some of the evidence that Victor deliberately kept like some of the recordings that they both heard and saw.
Baz was stunned, he thought about what Ben explained to him. Everything was in the scene at the time. But because he was too overwhelmed with anger, he himself did not have time to investigate anything and was instead consumed by the fake report. He recalled, at that time after hearing the damn report the doctor immediately approached him to give the sad news that his father was not saved. Just then, Baz was immediately enraged. In his heart, he immediately hated Victor right then and there.
Right now, he was condemning himself for being so foolish as to do nothing to look for concrete evidence regarding the events involving his father and sister. Even to the point of taking his father's life, Baz's only living parents were at the time. Baz was just angry and angry. He realized how stupid he was.
Baz rubbed his face rough, the cup in the other hand was also almost cracked with emotions that he was venting tightly into the grasp. The corner of Ben's lips twitched looking at it, he hoped that the man immediately understood what was really going on.
"Drink your coffee to be more relaxed!", suggested Ben while pointing with his chin towards the cup that Baz was squeezing with force.
"Sorry!", in a stiff fashion Baz loosened his hand at the cup and immediately sipped his coffee, instead, he downed it and then put the cup back on the table.
"I don't deserve your forgiveness. You are wrong target!", said Ben smooth also with his leisure he returned to sip his own coffee.
Right, he owes an apology to a lot of people. To Victor, for hating him wrongly. To Rose, Victor's younger brother whom he had been subjected to revenge until his life suffered greatly. And also to his younger brother and nephew, he had snatched away the happiness they should have long ago.
Baz's face withered full of regret. But given the beloved niece that he had already considered like his own son, there was something stuck in this. Baz again shone his glare at the man before him.
"Then how could Bella be pregnant with Victor's child?", asked Baz in an accusatory tone. Still implied mistrust salute the eyes of the man.
"Yes, Bella has Victor's son. How did that happen? I know very well, my sister is a woman who takes care of her purity. It would have been impossible to do so if it had not been for coercion", still in the same vein, Baz accuses them of still hiding this one problem that Victor had been guilty of.
"No, you're wrong! Not even my friends know that Bella is pregnant! She has no idea that Bella has a son with her. If Victor likes Bella, I know. But for this one problem, my own friend didn't even know anything at all!", Ben's face was still filled with shock.
What else is this reality that he got?! But how could that happen Ben himself was very curious. Then what if his friend finds out if he already has a son from the woman he likes first?! Will she be happy later with her current condition?! Ben's face turned sad considering the illness his friend was suffering from. But it is also impossible for Ben to convey this news, because surely Baz will think if Ben will only take advantage of this situation. Ben chooses to hide the problem of the disease that Victor is suffering from at this time.
"It seems that this matter is only known to your brother and Victor!", suggested Ben wisely.
Seeing Ben's sincerity when explaining his words earlier about Victor, Baz was sure that the man was not lying. Baz found no false signals on the cowboy-hat man's face. But what about that moment, he gets some photos of Victor and Bella entering a room together. And again indirectly his brother also stated that his son was Victor's only. He also had a report that it was true that Victor had desecrated his brother, making him hate Victor even more in his heart. But his sister said that it wasn't true, he did it with his consciousness and on his own will. And that the man knew nothing. But because he already hated it, Baz thought that what Bella said was only to protect the man. Because Baz knows how Bella likes that guy named Victor.
Baz let out a frustrated sigh while leaning his head against the back of the sofa while closing his eyes. It turned out that he was really stupid at the time. There was nothing he could match with his own hands anymore. Really stupid, because he was only consumed by emotions that became increasingly. Until all that makes him so cruel and ruin the lives of some people. Baz felt very guilty at this moment. He covered his face with both hands holding back the cry that seemed to be breaking from the guilt that was bursting. He was truly unforgivable this time.
"Looks like a traitor inside your people!", Ben's calm voice was like a breath of fresh air to the sense of hearing that Baz had. Blowing the wounds he had long stored and became a grudge. Revenge that has gone the wrong way, wrong impingement.
"You're right! I'm going to scrape all this out. I will not spare those who have ruined my family's tranquility, even daring to take my father's life!", Baz's eyes full of determination to turn things around. Revenge him the rightful side.
"But you also need to apologize to some people!", the wise words Ben uttered while scooping his cake.
"You're right! I need forgiveness from some people!", Baz's face turned lethargic filled with regret and sorrow.
