The Pearl of Ternista

The Pearl of Ternista
Karma for Karel


Out there are already several policemen in full uniform, along with their weapons. In addition, there was also a healthy-looking Goddess who was fit without being injured in the slightest, as well as Devan who was holding a cell phone and looking towards the room, where Karel was currently.


Karel's sweat poured out by itself, along with the grip of such a tight hand on the curtain. I don't know where his fault lies, why he's failed so far.


"He's playing games with me" Karel growled in his heart. Given the phone that claimed to be from the hospital, Karel was sure it must have been Devan.


The jerk worked with his mother, maybe with Sherin.


"Damn! Why am I not aware of all this? Goddamn bum!" as Karel said, still in his heart.


Sherin stared deeply at Karel. Her lips were bitten hard to withstand the sorrow that so sharply wounded her heart. Karel Adiguna, the man he loved so much. He could have gone so crazy behind her. Playing women, cheating with Tiara, slandering Devan, and finally planning to kill his mother in order to gain control of all his possessions.


Wh why?


What was the lack of him all this time, so that Karel could hurt him so much?


Lies if Sherin is not broken and disappointed. Deep in his heart he was still in love, although now there was also hatred that roused and reminded him to forget that love.


When Karel and Sherin were still dissolved in their respective minds—had done nothing to deal with the situation, suddenly the room door was knocked from the outside. Quite loud, until both of them jerked and spontaneously turned to the source of the sound.


"Master! Open the door, sir! It's me, sir!" shouted someone who was none other than the personal driver of the Goddess.


"Quick, Sir! It's important!" screaming, again.


Since the driver was the one standing by his side, Karel did not think long to see him. In fact, he ignored Sherin's existence for a moment.


"Troubleshooting in___"


Karel's hasty remarks, hanging just like that. Not only Dewi's driver who is now standing in the doorway, but also with two police officers who pointed weapons at him.


"What is this, I___"


"This is the man, sir. He deliberately kept his wife to be used as bait in the fight against Mr. Devan. There have been many crimes that he committed, very deserving of severe punishment," concluded the driver, spontaneously making Karel turn his back. Apparently, the person he trusted the most in the house, actually stabbed him in the back. It turns out that he's still siding with Goddess and Devan.


"No, sir, this is wrong. I___"


Karel thrashed and shouted in self-defense, but no one cared. The police kept walking until they left the house.


Right on the terrace, Karel met with Dewi and Devan. The two people folded their hands on their chests while displaying disappointed expressions. Karel was so sick of seeing it.


"I've accepted you as a son-in-law. Unexpectedly, you even intend to kill me and seize my family's property. Very cute to you, Karel!" said the Goddess firmly.


"Your betrayal of my brother, I will never forgive you!" timpal Devan, his gaze seemed to pierce his heart so sharply.


Karel did not answer a single word. It all happened suddenly. The mind that is usually intelligent and agile, is now dead-end and cannot find an exit point from the problem. Until the end, he had no significant defense to escape from police arrest. Inevitably he got into the car and allowed himself to stand trial.


"I need to calm down and think about this slowly. There was still time to get to the police station there, I had to find the exact reason before being examined, "inner Karel with sweat soaking her face and all over her body.


Meanwhile, Tiara was already in the police station. His heart continues to beat fast. Between fear, anxiety, and worry, all mix into one. Although the police were certain to arrest Karel, but for Tiara, the man was still like a demon who could hurt him at any time. Tiara worries about her safety, as well as the safety of the child who is still in the womb.


'Shaka loves you very much, and my family accepts you too. Mama and Sherin always treat you well. Although many commented because of differences in social status, but Mama and Sherin never disputed that. But, it is unexpected that this is your reply. You cheated on Sherin's husband until she got pregnant. Imagine how they would feel if they knew the truth. Honestly, Tiara, I'm very disappointed in you.'


Devan's words are reverberated in Tiara's memory, when she first made a confession regarding the biological father of the fetus she was carrying.


Tiara did not argue that Devan was disappointed. Any brother would also be disappointed if his sister was treated like that. But one that he still worries about. Namely, aunt. If he knew the true facts, he would also be disappointed. Does not rule out the possibility, will behave the same as Seno.


So if it happens, then Tiara will really live a kara. There is no family to support.


"Yes, whatever the consequences will be, I will try to bear. It was my fault for betraying Mas Shaka and his family. Even if I was ostracized and insulted by everyone, this was still not worth what I did to Mas Shaka," Tiara's inner self while holding onto her distended stomach.


"Near!"


The call that was accompanied by a touch on the shoulder, made Tiara startled and immediately looked back.


"Don't regret what happened, just think about what to fix in the future" said the person.


Tiara was stunned for a long time. Not to digest what he heard, but to look at the figure in front of him.


Seriate...
