The Pearl of Ternista

The Pearl of Ternista
Cunning Plans


Night at the Goddess's house. Five people gathered in the living room awkwardly. After last night had the order from the mother to come, today Alina and Devan really came. Even so, Alina's face did not display cheerfulness. It is the most obvious annoyance. Especially the reason if it wasn't jealousy for Tiara.


"Actually, what's important, Ma?" devan asked, putting an end to the silence that had been enveloping since.


The goddess took a long breath. It was hard for him to ask that all in front of Alina. Namu, how else. They're married, there shouldn't be any secrets, including Devan's scandal. Although the man is his son, but he does not want to support the affair.


If Devan is guilty, Dewi will not defend him. In fact, he will sympathize with Alina, a kind woman who has never acted.


"How's Novan doing?" ask the Goddess, a little pleasantry.


Devan let out a long sigh, "Not yet arrested, Ma. I also don't know why it's so smart that he ran away. Maybe, there's a big guy who purposely protected her."


"Mama wants an honest answer, Devan," said Dewi as she looked at her eldest child.


Devan frowned, "I'm being honest, Ma. It's like that's the truth."


Devan's feelings are starting to get bad. There's a bad feeling that's so strong it haunts.


"We are a family, it is appropriate to help each other and remind when something is wrong. Devan, it's not that Mama is angry, it just takes honesty. Mama does not want you to get more involved in mistakes that eventually become regrets. So, we finish this together," continued Dewi.


"Ma, I don't understand what Mama's talking about. I do not feel like I did anything wrong, except to trust Novan too much, until he finally cheated on him" Devan said. Not in self-defense, but in truth.


However, the Goddess was just a bell. He still thinks his son is lying.


"Ma!" call Devan.


"Then, try to explain this, Devan!" said Dewi while showing some evidence that has been bagged, namely information about Novan and also Nala.


"This is what, Mas?" Alina who first snatched the photo sheet, where there is a picture of her husband with Nala. "This is Novan's sister, right? She works in the office too?" continued.


Devan. It was hard for him to explain the true circumstances.


"Mama doesn't know either, Alina, Nala is working or just playing there. Hence, Mama told you to come here, yes to talk about this. Because in addition to the existence of Nala who is full of question marks, Mama also just found out that Novan had been laid off before Mr. Burhan gave the project budget. So, we also wondered, how can people who have gone out of the office, but brought a run for the budget. Doesn't that make no sense?" The goddess explained at length.


Alina flabbergasted. It turned out that it wasn't the Tiara that was suspect, but there were many more things, and it was more painful. Oh Devan, since when did he become that cruel?


"Mas ... I still haven't got a clear answer to your relationship with Tiara, but. Tell me, Mom, how many secrets are you hiding from me!" Alina was half crying. Indeed, for a second he never imagined the husband would hurt him.


"Honey, about Nala I can explain. He does come to the office often, the reason for seeing Novan. I knew not long ago that they were intentional. She said Nala was attracted to me and wanted to be my wife. I am angry, I will not betray you. From there, I and Novan had a disagreement. We had a fight. But, finally he apologized and promised not to let his sister go to the office again. I trust. It just turns out that it's just a trick. Novan used my trust to get the project off the ground" Devan said.


"Honestly, I'm not sure of your confession, Mom. Because all this time you've also been quiet, never a little offending it."


"I'm sorry, I did deliberately hide this. But not for bad things. I just want to keep your feelings. You know .. the reason Nala and Novan do this .. because they think you have a deficiency. I didn't touch on this matter, because I can't bear to talk to you like this" Devan replied seriously.


Alina dilemma. On the one hand, he wants to trust Devan, but on the other hand, he also suspects her.


"Mas, we're talking like this. I can do something too, right? This is about .. the last debt. So, when will I return it? At that time the promise was only a month, but this was up to two more months. With Mas tell me to shut up and not talk to Mama, I do not feel good if hung for long, because that is also company money. I'm afraid it will be considered to mislead the funds, Mas" Karel said. Sontak gets the attention of Dewi, Alina, and Devan.


"What is this debt, Mom?" ask Alina.


"You owe and tell Karel to shut up. What does that mean, Van?"


Devan. He did not understand the words of his sister-in-law.


"Sepent ... This is what debt do you mean? I only owe that time, in front of Mama. The half is already cut out, and there's no more debt."


"Mas, how did you become a gini? After the debt in front of Mama at that time, you owe again, right? You tell me to shut up and send the money to your subordinate's account. I still have proof, Mas, so don't dodge it. I don't want to be scapegoated. I was just trying to help, please don't make it difficult."


Devan. Nominal listed is not small, 600 million. So where is the money now?


"Rel, I've never owed this much. You___"


"Mas, that time you came alone to me. Say you need that kind of money and tell me to shut up. Let this be your goal, Mas, to be evasive and free from responsibility." Karel cut Devan's speech with a look of panic, making Dewi forced to let out a high voice.


"You don't slander, Rel! I've never come to you alone and owe you that much! You want that money?" snapped Devan.


"Mas, have I helped you, is this the payoff? If this is money to cover your scandal, just say it with a man, Mas, don't be a coward and scapegoat others." Karel did not want to lose.


"You're rude, Rel!"


"You're the brash one, Mas!"


"Enough! Don't get emotional! We're talking about this all right. Where exactly is the money?" The goddess looked at Karel and Devan in turn.


Karel remained on the initial answer, which Devan borrowed and was forbidden to tell anyone. Devan swore that he never borrowed the money. In fact, he came up with a proposal to bring in the police and Alan to make things clear.


The goddess was confused. He doesn't know what's right and what's wrong. The other is with Alina. Now the curiosity to Devan is getting bigger.


"What do you give to Tiara, Mas?" he asked with a hoarse voice due to an unstoppable cry.


"Dear, trust me. I never owe that much. I also have nothing to do with Tiara. It's just a misunderstanding, honey."


"Tiara? Why involve him too?" timpal Goddess.


"Mr Alina, what do you mean by this?" Karel offered a phone containing a photo of Devan and Tiara, near him in dim lighting. "I didn't mean to interfere, just didn't want to be blamed for the money. It is true that Mas Devan is minjam, and it may be true for Tiara as well. All this time ... Tiara refuses DNA tests. If it's true that the baby she's carrying belongs to Shaka, you shouldn't be afraid, right?" continued.


Devan can't hold back anymore. With one move, he managed to land the bogeman in Karel's face.


"What do you mean, huh? You deliberately provoked the circumstances so that all the blame was on me?" devan shouted while gripping the collar of Karel's shirt.


Dewi and Sherin try to break them up, but it's not easy. Devan is already in a bad mood.


"You know where the money is. Aye, right? You jerk! You want to destroy this family, huh!" One more time the bogeman landed perfectly, leaving a bruise on the corner of Karel's lip.


"Mas, no! No need to use violence, because I still will not believe in you! We're divorced, Mas!" shout Alina. Spontaneous, stopping Devan's hand movements that were about to float the third bogeman.


"Darling!" call Devan.


But Alina doesn't care. So many suspicions had made him tired and lost confidence. He turned and ran away from the room.


"Darling, wait, honey!" devan yelled while plucking Karel's body just like that.


"Devan, we___"


"I'll go after Alina first, Ma. This matter, I'll solve it soon. Mama don't trust him anymore. All of this is just his slander, not knowing what his goal is," Devan cut as he glanced sharply at Karel.


Then, he ran after Alina. He will also make calculations with Alan, making the man open his mouth and expose the real problem.


While on the other hand, Karel reviewed the smirk smile. Inwardly he said, "You can escape death, but you cannot escape destruction. Devan, a little more .. You will be removed from this family. You'll be gone .. just like your sister."
