The Pearl of Ternista
The Fight Against Devan

"Sherin up! Sherin!"

Karel's voice echoed across the living room. Calling the wife who is still in the room. There was no friendliness in the look on his face, even the anger that was printed clearly.

"Sherin!" karel shouted for the umpteenth time.

With quick steps he headed to Sherin's place. Not without reason Karel so, but because it has found conjecture for the problems that occurred just now. Of the many people, Devan is the only one who should be suspected. Given her good relationship with Tiara, she must have planned this all through that woman.

While Sherin, whether or not cooperating with her brother, is clear Karel will make the calculations. Even if he is not involved, but at least can be used as bait to fight Devan.

"What's the matter, Mom, how come you're yelling? Is anyone missing?" ask Sherin who just came out of the room.

Without further ado, Karel instantly dragged Sherin's hand rough and pushed her onto the sofa, in the living room. Sherin surprised. However, he had not protested, the husband had already snapped at him.

"What are you doing behind my back, huh?"

Sherin looked confused.

"See this! Are you the one who took this picture secretly? Or ... You put a hidden camera in this house? Answer!" karel snapped while showing a photo on her phone screen, which featured her with the personal driver Dewi.

"Mas, what the hell are you doing? I was in the same room as our son, where there's a picture of you. What's that picture anyway, how come you accuse me of installing all the cameras?" Sherin Hanga looked at Karel's cell phone at a glance, the rest looking at the man intently.

"You don't pretend, Sherin!" Karel's voice was still rising, although not as rough as before.

"Pretend what the hell, Mas? I really don't know. What the hell is that photo, just you again the salary of the driver, right? What's so strange? Why get so angry like a syetan tambet that?" answer Sherin. He ventured to rise up and refute Karel's accusations.

However, Karel was not his name if he gave up. Again in a rude gesture, he pushed Sherin down to fall back onto the sofa. Sherin yells and protests, but Karel is indifferent.

"Behind me you've been in contact with Devan a lot, haven't you?" accuse Karel. Between sure and not, but he wanted to make sure right then and there.

Think Karel, there are already people who disturb his plans. So, what's the secret anymore, just do it blatantly.

Sherin shook her head quickly, "Since he slandered you, I've blocked all accounts and contacts related to him, Mas. He was my brother, but I was disappointed. I never got in touch with him again."

"You lied to me, Sherin?" karel.

"What lie, Mom?" Sherin's eyes are glazed. "I never doubted your faith, Mom. But you have no faith in me at all. What the hell are you, Mom? I really don't understand your attitude this morning" he continued in a soft voice, with a clear look.

However, Karel's lips even commented a sly smile. Regardless of the wife's gaze or explanation, she immediately grabbed Sherin's hand and forced him to rise.

"Mas!"

Sherin's call is only considered a past wind. Karel's legs continued to step, along with his grip on Sherin's arm.

The woman shouted, inviting the attention of the waiter and driver who worked with Karel.

"No one dares to interfere in our affairs, if you don't want to regret it later!" threaten Karel while raising a sharp gaze.

They looked at each other with their lips tightly closed.

"You, take care of them!" karel's orders on the Dewi's driver.

"Good, Sir."

After handing the waiter's business to the driver, Karel drags Sherin and takes her to the room. It just so happened that their child was already being nurtured by the baby sitter, so only the two of them were there.

"Mas! What the hell are you, Mas?" shouted Sherin. Not accepting when his body was thrown rough on the bed.

Instead of paying attention to Sherin's cry, Karel deftly removed his tie. Then, using the item to tie Sherin's hand, very tightly.

"Mas, take me off, Mas! You are crazy!" Sherin rebelled.

Both of his legs tried to kick Karel's body. However, the man's energy was too strong, so repeatedly kicking did not make him falter.

After tying Sherin's hand, Karel took the duct tape in the desk drawer and used it to tie Sherin's leg.

Until the end, Sherin was just lying on her back in bed, without being able to make any movements.

"Mas, take me off, Mas! What's the matter with you, Mas?" Sherin began to cry, lamenting the sudden harshness of her husband.

"Tell me what Devan did! Then I will let you go" said Karel, without guilt.

"I know what Mas Devan did. Ever since that time, I've never been in contact with him."

Karel leaned over and brought her face closer, "You're honest or not, in the end I'll still know what the answer to my question just now is."

"What do you mean, Mom?"

Karel stood up straight again and tidied up the suit he was wearing, "Later you'll know."

After saying so, Karel stepped away and left Sherin alone. Then meet the driver who is still in the kitchen room. Apparently, the man was talking seriously with one of the servants.

"Why him?" karel asked, cold and firm.

"He tried to take a photo when Mr. Karel brought Miss Sherin into the room."

The driver's answer made Karel's jaw harden. It seemed, he had already gotten a bright spot over the approaching matter.

"Get me your phone!" karel said as he approached the waiter.

"Don't, sir, this is nothing. I just ... only__"

One swipe, Karel had found a photo gallery of his servant. In addition to the photo when he brought Sherin to the room, there is also the exact same photo with a photo that was sent to Karel's phone a few moments ago.

"So you took this picture?" karel asked, quietly but sounding horrible.

The waiter who was asked just lowered his head, then stepped back as Karel got closer to him.

"What's your purpose in taking this photo?" karel.

"I .. i___"

"Quick, say!"

The servant immediately dropped his body onto the floor, then hugged Karel's leg and begged for mercy.

"I'm sorry, sir. I just need the money" he lamented between tears.

Karel is still indifferent. He focused on the servant's cell phone. Another thing he looked for after looking at the photo gallery was the message history. Stupidly, not wiped clean. So, Karel could see clearly where his servant was sending those images—one contact with the name 'Mr Devan'.

"So, he's right. Heh, stupid," muttered Karel.

"Is there anything I need to do again, sir?" ask driver.

"More him and all the servants here! Don't let any of them interfere in my business. Understood?" karel replied, giving a very cunning order.

"Good, Sir."

After the maid is forcibly pulled by the driver, Karel returns to Sherin's room. A little relieved of his feelings since the person who cooperated with Devan was already within his control. After this, Devan won't be able to pucker up anymore.

It wasn't enough that good things happened to Karel. About fifteen minutes after he entered the room and attempted to contact Devan, Sherin's phone rang loudly. There was a call from her mother.

"Good morning, is this really the family of the number owner?" That was the first sound that went into Sherin's hearing when the phone line was connected and deliberately loudspeaker.

"We are from Pharma Husada Hospital. Want to inform that the owner of the number has just had an accident and now the situation is very critical. Begged the family to come to the hospital immediately."

Karel's laughter echoed loudly after the phone ended. His scheming plan was not in vain. The goddess was truly an accident and was extremely critical. He was sure he would soon die.

"Mas, Mama's in an accident, Mas! Please let me go, Mas!" sherin shouted while crying hysterically.

Poor, caring? Of course not. Karel's heart was blinded by money and money.

"Mas!"

"Whatever you scream, I won't care. Because all this ... indeed I have planned," said Karel calmly.

Sherin's cry paused for a moment, "What do you mean, Mas?"

"You're too naive to think I really love you, Sherin."

"Mas___"

"Other than treasure, there is nothing more precious in you. Hence, I will do anything to obtain it, including getting rid of those who have the right to the treasure."

Sherin wavers, "You mean, Mama's accident, it has something to do with you, Mas?"

Karel smiled slantingly, "It wasn't just this accident, but also the accident that befell your beloved sister, Shaka."

In a condition still bound, Sherin cried without a sound. It shows how much pain he felt at the time.

"After this, divert all assets into my name. If not .. you and Devan will catch up with Shaka," Karel threatened.

Sherin is getting more and more, still do not expect if the man who married her and every day echoed love, in an instant turned into a human-shaped demon.

"We're married, Mom, we have kids too. Why are you so good to me? What was it like I was lacking all this time, Mom?"

Karel ignored Sherin's remarks and focused more on his own phone, which at that time rang because there was a phone call from Devan. Yes, the man who had been contacted but not answered, called back.

However, before accepting it, Karel showed it to Sherin.

"I wonder how Devan would respond if he knew his sister's situation now. Perhaps, she wouldn't think back to giving me anything I asked for, including her little office."

"Mas! No, Mas! Please don't do that!"

Sherin's shout was only considered a past wind that was meaningless. Karel gladly received a call from Devan. He deliberately did not move right, so that there Devan can also hear Sherin's cries.

"You're just a fool, dare to fight me. Now, enjoy all the things I give you. Hope you're not broken in your regrets, Devan!" karel said after Devan greeted.

"I or you regret it?" devan replied, impressed defiantly.

"I wonder if your arrogance is still there or not if you know how your sister is doing now."

"Before you tell me how Sherin is doing, you better take a look at your situation. Yes ... by checking out the house for example. To make sure it's safe." Devan's answer was very relaxed, and it made Karel panic instantly.

What's with the outside of the house? A question that made him jump right from where he was.

"What's he playing?" karel grumbled as he ran towards the window and revealed the curtains that were still closed.

One scene out there made Karel's body freeze instantly. Not only does the heartbeat seem to stop, but also the round of his world. It felt like it would all end that very second.

Seriate...
