In the Name of a Mate
Chapter 43: The Path of Law

PLAQUES

Layla's head fell to the side as a result of that pretty hard slap. Not until there the Queen pulled her hijab until it was open to make her aura that was so guarded now visible. Layla tried to seize the cloth headgear that is now deliberately wetted by friends of the Queen

"What relationship do you have with Qais to the point of claiming that she's yours?" Layla asked looking at the Queen without caring if the Queen looked at her with a small look

"It must be more than her relationship with you" the Queen pointed with her bow making Layla laugh

PLACKS

Layla's hand landed smoothly on the Queen's face after she finished saying that

"I think you're smart, it's pretty stupid, don't know yourself and have no shame" Layla said fearlessly

"You mean?" The queen asked in an angry tone

"Qais never admits you, only you acknowledge yourself, does one unilateral feeling deserve to be called a special relationship?" Layla asked with a hint of pangs

"Don't know you" although a little silent for a while, the Queen replied in a high tone

"Then you can explain, what is this relationship called?"

"We're dating" the Queen replied quickly

"Hahahaha, you joke around at times like this. Are you dreaming now?" Layla asked with a tone of ridicule at the end of her sentence

"Bad!" The queen was furious that she grabbed Layla's hair while the other two friends held Layla's hands so she could not get a wart

BRAKKK

The bathroom door that was deliberately locked is now forced open. Qais went inside and saw his wife's soaking wet state and disheveled hair

"This Qais is not what it seems, she did this to me first" the Queen's lie certainly won't make Qais believe when she knows how sneaky the woman is, it was also impossible for his own wife to start such a useless thing

"He said he was jealous because he saw us talking so much" the Queen replied

"She even slapped me" the Queen showed her flushed cheeks at Qais who was now opening her jacket to be paired with her wife

"Why would my wife do such a useless thing when she could even ask her own husband to do it? And one more, when did we ever talk? We may not even know each other"

Qais' words surprised them, especially the man's treatment of Layla

"A what?"

"What you treat like this is my wife, we're married. So on what basis do you treat my wife like this?" The sound of Qais snapping made the three people who had just bully it instantly speechless

"Qais, don't joke. It's not funny at all" The Queen shook her head trying to reject the fact she had just heard

"Why am I joking about this kind of business?" Qais asked with his flat face. While Layla is now being helped Nessi wear another hijab, because fortunately she always carries a spare in her bag. Nessi also reported to Qais when she realized the bathroom door could not be opened and a noise was heard from inside. He was afraid of anything happening to Layla because it had been a while but had not returned. The hallway around is also quite quiet because students mostly choose a different bathroom, also the clock is still early in the morning until not many come. Fortunately, Qais was still in front of the Faculty of Engineering who was talking to who, and the expression of the man immediately turned horrible

"You think I don't know when you tell someone else to hurt him? You're willing to spend a lot of money to make him suffer, you think I don't know?"

UAS is actually finished, Layla here just wants to return the book he borrowed, while Qais said he will take care of some things with his other men before the holiday

.

"Where is sick?" Layla shook her head when the question was asked by the umpteenth time Qais

"I'm sorry, I should've come sooner"

"No problem, I also had time to reply earlier" Layla chuckled to herself as she remembered her hand until it hurt from slapping the Queen's face

"Should let me do it, your hands flushed like this" Qais instead focused on the pain Layla might feel

"I'm sorry, it's because I failed. I shouldn't have let this happen to you" Layla shook her head

"Sir Qais said that the Queen told others to hurt me, you mean?" Qais sighed for a moment

"You can't forget the people who had bad intentions for you the night we were forced into marriage because of a misunderstanding by the citizens"

"That guy's her man?" Layla looked surprised to close her mouth

"Yes, he did that"

"She could be exposed because it endangers the lives of others, even including premeditated murder"

"Astagfirullohaladzim"

"Because of that, I'm going to take him down the line of law. The evidence is many, the crime can not be traced anymore. Let the police handle it"

"Kak Qais knows that the Queen is Nessi's half-brother?" Qais nodded. How he didn't know it was their father who made him lose his parents

"I asked Nessi, but Nessi also saw the same person we saw that night. The one who looks like the face of his father Nessi"

"Is there any chance that he's still alive?" Qais even hesitated now. Is that guy really not dead?. They did not kill him directly at that time, a shot hit his chest with blood pouring after that they threw it in a fast flowing river and his car to make it look like an accident. They thought he wouldn't survive, but most likely if there were good people to help him

"If she's still alive, it's hard to bring Nessi to the law. His father must have acted, let alone heard from Nessi that his father was so spoiling his stepson"

Qais fell silent, thinking of something to connect the puzzle pieces of events that are happening right now.

"If bringing the Queen to the law can make the person come out of hiding and open the identity of her who has returned. So, it's easy to get both of them in at once"

"One action by having those two cases finished" inner Qais who drew up a plan in her head

"Assalamu'alaikum" was pensive with each other's thoughts, the two people were slightly surprised the sound of greetings sounded from outside

"Wa'alaikumussalam" Qais moved first and opened the door

"Dad" he was a little surprised when he saw Naufal standing at the door and Bilal behind him. Qais kissed his father-in-law's hand and let him in, while Qais and Bilal seemed confused themselves as to how, Bilal was his brother-in-law but was even older than the man. Qais had only extended a hand to Bilal. However, Bilal unexpectedly kissed the back of his hand probably because he thought that Qais was older than him, making Qais do the same

"Why are you two standing like fools holding hands there?!" Finally Naufal's voice interrupted making them aware and immediately released their respective hands
