THE REGRETS OF THE CRUEL IN-LAWS
INDIRA IS YOUR DAUGHTER

"I think you've forgotten your son." Santi's mother looked at Claudia who looked surprised.

"How could I forget my son?" Claudia did not accept it.

"I've been looking for Mom for years, but I never found Mom" Claudia continued. His face changed.

The woman then told me what happened after that day. The day she left her newborn baby out of her womb.

Claudia was forced to leave her newborn child to an orphanage. At that time, he had no choice. Claudia gave birth without a husband, she got pregnant out of wedlock because

the man who impregnated her did not want to take responsibility then left her.

Claudia was desperate. When the man who impregnated her left her. He almost finished off the baby in his womb.

Luckily, there was one of his friends who advised him not to abort. After all, the baby in her womb was innocent. He deserves to live and be born into the world like any other child.

"I used to come to the orphanage to see my son, but by the time I got there, the orphanage was gone. People say, the parlor was evicted by the landowner. However, when I asked about Mom's whereabouts, not a single person among them knew about it" Claudia explained at length. The woman did not accept it because Mother Panti said that she had forgotten her son.

Santi's mother listened to Claudia's story without interrupting it at all. The woman wanted to know what reason Claudia had lied to her.

"I don't mean to break my promise, Mom. At that time, I could not go straight to see Mom at the orphanage because of the circumstances. I don't have an established job yet so can't go straight to pick up my daughter to live with me." Claudia told me back about her situation at the time.

Santi's mother fell silent. The woman had not responded to Claudia's remarks because she was still recounting the incident decades ago.

"My husband and I were looking everywhere for Mom, but we both didn't find Mom." Claudia was still staring softly at the middle-aged woman before her.

"Now, please, please tell me where my son is?" Clear water droplets flowed down Claudia's cheeks. That woman who was so proud was crying.

For years she had lost hope of meeting Santi's mother. However, fate finds him back with the woman.

Santi's mother took a deep breath. The old woman received Claudia's hand on her hand.

"What is your relationship with Indira?" ask Santi's mother.

"Your son-in-law?" Santi's mother was shocked to hear Claudia's words.

"Yes. He's my son-in-law, but I don't like him much." Claudia complained.

"Why? Did he make a mistake?" Santi's mother's voice shook. It was not that Claudia said she disliked Indira, but, something made her feel worried.

"No! He didn't make a mistake. I didn't like her because she came home pregnant and asked my son to marry her, when my son was going to marry another woman." Claudia explained from the first she did not like Indira. Only, he did not reveal the crimes he did to eliminate Indira.

"So, Indira was pitted?" Santi's mother clenched both her hands. Didn't expect that the foster princess he cared about turned out to be so miserable.

During this time, Indira never told her anything except to tell her that she was married to a good man who loved her very much.

Santi's mother's tears flowed by themselves.

"Why are you so mean to my adopted daughter? He only fights for what is rightfully his. If he didn't force your son to take responsibility, he would definitely have fared the same as you."

Claudia looked surprised to hear the words of Santi's mother who cornered her. The corner of her heart ached when she recalled the events decades ago before she became pregnant with the child she had left in the orphanage of Ms. Santi.

"Is Indira's husband your biological son?" Santi's mother looked at Claudia with a sharp look.

"What does Mom mean? Of course he is my biological son. Why did you ask about my son? I asked Mom to talk because I wanted to know where my daughter was instead of telling her about my son!" Claudia was upset.

"I'm asking because this has something to do with your daughter."

"What does Mom mean?" Claudia was curious.

The mother of the parlor was silent for a moment. The woman was holding back the turmoil in her chest. If only Indira's husband was Claudia's biological son ....

"Indira is your daughter!"

"What?"
