The Cold Wife
Chapter 53

From a distance, Sweet could already see the whereabouts of his two sons. Arez, the eldest son was sitting waiting for the presence of the Mommy in front of the class. As for little Arel, he was still busy playing. Sweet accidentally put his two sons into school at an early age. Because he can see the growth and development both are quite good at absorbing new knowledge.

Arez was indeed different from other normal children. He tends to be quiet and speaks very rarely. But he is quite responsive when it comes to learning. Even Arez can already rule the computer world. I have a hobby, which is painting.

Unlike Arel, the boy was quite active in everything. Its nature is almost similar to Alexa, easy to get along with and talkative. Of course, they also have the same hobby, which is playing.

"Arez, Arel... It's time to go home." Sweet approached Arez who was looking at him deeply.

"Mommy crying?" ask Arez flat. Sweet did not answer his son's questions. When viewed, the nature of the two is so similar. It's cold and squeaky, but pretty attentive.

"Mommy.... " Arel yelled and ran over to Sweet, and squandered in a hug.

"Get in the car, Arez... Arel too," Sweet commands his two sons. Arez followed Mommy's orders. It is different with Arel. The boy is still spoiled.

"Mommy, Arel wants to be carried." Arel raised both of his hands and indeed a glare. It's very exciting for anyone who sees it. Sweet complies with Arel's wishes. Lifting Arel's petite body in a sling.

Arez, Arel and Alexa inherited Alex's face ninety percent. Only the color of her eyes Sweet passed on to her two sons. Alexa inherited Alex's eye color, which is navy blue. Alexa has similarities with Sweet on the nose and lips. For the others more dominating Alex's face.

Now that the three of them were in the car, Arez chose to sit at the very end of the window. While Arel is still struggling spoiled on Sweet.

"You hungry?" ask Sweet while taking off Arel's bag. Arez is used to doing everything himself.

"Hungry, Mommy. The supplies that Bibik prepared are not tasty. Arel likes Mommy's cooking" Arel said so adorable. Hearing that, Sweet smiled faintly. Even that smile was almost invisible.

"Arez?" call Sweet when he doesn't get an answer from his eldest son. Arez looked over.

"Will Mommy go to the hospital?" Arez asked back.

"If Mommy asks, answer correctly. Don't answer with questions, Arez." Sweet seemed unhappy with Arez's attitude. Though the cold nature that Arez had was so similar to him.

"Arez hungry," said Arez flat. It's as if you're used to Sweet's assertive attitude.

"So Mommy did visit Alexa. Mommy didn't bring you guys, because it's for both of you. Your age should not be too often in and out of the hospital," Sweet explained. That's how Sweet would keep telling her whatever she did to her children. Because he knew, Arez would figure out for himself all his activities outside.

"What about your school?" sweet asked both of them.

"Pretty good," replied Arez briefly.

"Today learn to draw, Mommy. Arez got the best score. Does Mommy know who's in the picture?" arel said with passion.

"Who?" ask Sweet curiously.

"Mommy and Alexa. They look similar and you guys are so beautiful. Mommy should see this." Arel took Arez's bag and opened it. Then take out a paper.

Sweet was stunned, his son's work was truly outstanding. Even the painting looks alive and natural.

"Will Mommy put in the workspace," said Sweet was proud to have a talented child like Arez.

"Where did you do it, Arel?" ask Sweet.

"Em, don't be mad at Mommy." Arel took out a piece of paper drawing it. He seemed hesitant, because the results were not as good as Arez's.

Sweet smiled faintly when he saw the results of Arel's hard work. Reminds Sweet of his childhood. He was not very good at drawing, and in the end chose to draw a chicken. Of course, the image is not too similar. Unlike the current Arel, he drew a fish swimming in the water.

"Good, Mommy likes it. Both of them Mommy's gonna put in the workspace."

There was clearly happiness on Arel's face. He was very happy to receive compliments from Mommy.

Along the way, Arel continued to babble. Sweet only listened, because he was used to Arel's chatty nature.

After lunch, they went straight home, because Sweet had to go back to the office. Sweet served as president director of his family's company in Surabaya. A company engaged in the field of imported jewelry and accessories. Bian gave up his post, and chose to manage the company himself. Because the company was more worthy of being managed by Sweet.

"Mommy has to go to the office, take good care of yourself." Sweet peeked at my two sons' forehead.

"Mommy, why should Mommy work? Doesn't Papa Bian work too?" tanya Arel held down Sweet's hand that was ready to leave.

Hearing the question, Sweet fell silent and stared at Arel's innocent face for a moment. "Because Mommy has to raise money for you guys to grow up, Papa Bian isn't with us forever."

Sweet was stunned, a question he always avoided. Maybe he could still lie to his two sons, but now things are different. Both of them are already big, it is no longer possible for him to make up stories.

"Arel, maybe now Mommy can't explain anything. Once Arel grows up, Arel will understand why Daddy was never there for us." Sweet clutching Arel's small body. Hope Arel doesn't ask about Alex anymore.

"Daddy don't love us?" Arel asked again. Makes Sweet feel frustrated and confused about what to answer. Sweet will never let them hate Alex and know all the truth. Enough of him to keep the pain.

"Arez, take your brother into the room. Mommy has to leave immediately." Sweet gave orders to his eldest son and ignored Arel's questions. There was a disappointed look on Arel's face.

Sorry, Mommy can't afford to talk about your Daddy. Sweet immediately left the house without a word.

"Let's go in," Arez took with him, pulling Arel's hand. But the sister still flinched.

"Do we not have Daddy?" The curiosity within Arel was so great. Not only Arel, Arez also kept many questions about his biological father. It's just that he kept all of it. Arez always sees sadness in the eyes of the Mommy if discussing the figure of Daddy that he does not know what he looks like.

"Surely there is, are you unconscious with our faces? People say we look like Caucasians, that means Daddy's overseas." Arez made up the story so that there are no more questions from the sister. Arez is a little different, even though he is three years old. He looked like a grown-up child and understood many things.

"really? Can we go abroad and meet Daddy?"

"Yes, we'll go there."

Arel looked delighted after hearing Arez's reply. His imagination began to emerge, making him smile and laugh at himself. Then ran to the room. Arez who saw that did not give any reaction, and followed Arel to the room.

On the way, Sweet kept thinking about the question that Arel was asking. Sweet continued to be possessed by a feeling of confusion. What if her kids go back to asking about Alex. Could it be that he told her everything that happened to him in the past? Question after question kept flashing through Sweet's mind. Makes his head hurt.

"Miss, we're here."

Sweet was stunned, hearing the driver who raised the voice.

"Sorry, Miss. Since then you've been daydreaming, and not responding to my calls." The Driver felt guilty for making his superior surprised.

"It's okay, dear apologise. Thank you sir," said Sweet moving down from the car. He took a heavy breath before entering the office. After feeling calmer, Sweet immediately rushed in. Throwing aside all the aral in his heart.

The sound of knocking on the door managed to steal the attention of Sweet who was busy with some thick documents in front of him.

"Come in," Sweet commands someone outside.

Not long after, the door opened and showed a tall man entering. Sweet glanced at the man at a glance, then back at his busyness.

The man with hazel eyes put a paper bag on Sweet's desk. And come sit at the end of the table, watching Sweet who is still struggling with MacBook.

"Working hours are up Miss Ana Sasmitha."

Sweet's movements came to a halt when he heard the name called by the man. His eyes moved to look at the watch on his arm. Sure enough, the time to work was up an hour ago. Sweet decided to stop the activity. And start cleaning the workbench filled with important documents.

"Do you remember tonight we had to attend a party?" asked the man looking at Sweet fixedly.

Sweet was silent for a moment, how could he forget the important event tonight? A party deliberately held for an important meeting.

"I've prepared a dress for you, I know you can't go home. Grandma's been calling me, if the kids are safe with her." The man still stared faithfully at Sweet.

"Thank you, Mr. Hanz." Sweet picked up the paper bag and headed towards a room. The room where he spent his rest. Sweet intends to carry out his duties as a Muslim first, before preparing to leave.

Hanz glued as he looked at the missing Sweet behind the door. Hanz Ewaldo Geralda, the man who brought Sweet to Indonesia a few years ago. He was the son of the Sasmitha family's assistant trustee. Also Alex's best friend, but he chooses to betray his own best friend.

There's nothing wrong with Hanz siding more with Sweet's family. Because from the beginning he worked for them. During this time Hanz continued to look for the whereabouts of the grandchildren of the Sasmitha family. Previously he also did not know if Sweet was the figure he had been looking for so far, even though they had known him first. He only realized when Sweet entered Alex's restraint. Hanz becomes interested in Sweet, then searches for data and information about him. That's when Hanz found out Sweet was the one he'd been looking for all along.

Hanz keeps an eye on Sweet, until he finds out Alex has married the woman. Hanz begins to fidget, however he knows Alex's true nature. Alex can't be serious about making Sweet a wife.

With great difficulty, Hanz continued to approach Sweet. Either in the office or outside Alex's power. It's just that the woman is very difficult to approach. It's not uncommon for Hanz to get threats from his best friend, Alex. Not to go near Sweet. At that time the relationship between the two began to fade.

In the end, Hanz decided to watch over Sweet secretly. And will act if Alex hurts the woman he likes. Unexpectedly, it really happened. Give Hanz a chance to take Sweet away from Alex's side. To date, Hanz is still loyal on Sweet's side. Take care of the woman with all your heart. Although there was no more reply from Sweet, he still tried to protect the woman of his heart. The trust of both his parents to protect Sasmitha's family was much more important. He had to pay the debt that the family had given him before. Even if he has to put aside all his heart.
