Amelia recalled what Diego had told her. Diego's words kept ringing in his ears. If what Diego says is true, it means he should be more careful about keeping both of his children. And most likely, that person would also have the heart to hurt him and the children.
Dinner was ready, they were all gathered in the dining room to enjoy the dinner provided by the family cook. Bram greets Amelia very kindly, but as much as possible Amelia is mediocre.
"Well, the cooking is appetizing! It must taste really delicious!" bram said opening his voice, "Please eat, Brother!" said Bram. Amelia looked at Bram in full search. He still could not believe, whether a Bram could do such a heinous deed to the man who had raised him.
"What am I thinking? How could Bram do that? Come on, Amelia, get rid of your prejudices!" amelia's inner self tries to dispel her bad thoughts.
"Sister-in-law!" call Alina.
"Sister?" Alina tried to nudge Amelia's arm.
"Eh, yes. What's up?"
"Let's eat! Why is the food just stirring?"
"Eh, yes," replied Amelia, smiling in a knot.
"Mommy, Aka ate it already" said Aska.
"Oh, then. Ask directly to the same room Mba Lina huh?"
"Yes, Mom,"
"Sherly has, too, Mom. Sherly's gonna play Aska, okay, Mom?"
"Yes, Honey. Play it not until night! Remember Mommy's message! Sleep early, because Sherly's school tomorrow!"
"Key, Mom!" answer them simultaneously.
"Oyes, Brother. I've been telling people to look for Bang Thomas's whereabouts. But don't see you, brother!" bram said as the two boys entered the room.
"Then?"
"They said, most likely Bang Thomas died then eaten by wild animals. My men searched for his body, nowhere to be found. Only blood splattered on the scene, brother!" lirih Bram's.
Tringgggng ...
Amelia's tablespoon fell onto the plate, and made a very loud noise. Alina was surprised.
"That's impossible, Bram. You lied to me, right?" isak Amelia's.
"Patience, sister," said Alina trying to calm her brother-in-law's heart.
"But what I said is true, brother!" bram again.
"Hiks ... Hicks ... Hicks!"
"So patient brother! I know it's hard for my brother. It's hard for Alina too. But, look at Alina. He was so tough to face! For the sake of children, big brother should be like that too!"
"Bram, can't you look for her again?"
"Sorry, Brother. I can't find Bang Thomas anymore. Because it's clear. There's no body. Then, where else to look? Along the banks of the river, my people have also been looking for him. And in the woods too!"
"I'm very sure, brother. During the accident, Bang Thomas's body fell to the bottom of the ravine. And of course, it won't survive. There's only traces of blood. Meaning, there are ferocious beasts that prey on it. Aren't we?"
Bram's remarks at the dinner table left Amelia pummeled. How could she live without her husband? How would he raise children without a husband?
Hicks ... Hicks ... Hixes
All night Amelia was crying. He could not bear to accept this harsh reality. It felt too soon, God called her husband away. Even the marriage has not been five years.
"No. I'm sure my husband is still alive. I can feel it. I can feel his breath!" melia, "I must seek the truth!"
"Yes, I have to find out the mastermind behind this accident!" inward Amelia, "I still remember Diego's words. I have to suspect everyone who lives in this house. Including Alina and Bram!"
Amelia walked into her husband's office. She wanted to find information in her husband's office. Fortunately, her husband's office was never locked. So that he could easily enter.
Slowly, Amelia went inside. He closed the door of the study slowly, so as not to disturb the people in this house who were resting.
Amelia was looking for something in her husband's desk drawer. He didn't get any evidence. Then, he searched on the bookshelves, he didn't get them either. She tried to open the laptop on her husband's desk. Only the work files are stored on that laptop.
Amelia opened a large closet in the corner of the room. Little dusty. But, it's okay. Amelia tried to open it.
One of the cabinets contained only old newspapers. Maybe it's been a while. Making the color of the newspaper slightly yellowed, the original color has also faded.
"Why do you keep old newspapers here?" amelia muttered.
Which makes it interesting, even though the color has faded. Mama Celine still kept it well. And, Amelia was very curious about the newspaper.
"Surprisingly, why not just throw it away? Though they're rich, why do their old newspapers make collections?"
Amelia took the old newspaper, and folded it into the smallest fold. She heard footsteps coming to her husband's office. Amelia turned off the office lamp. He's hiding behind a curtain.
A man opened the door of the study. He looked around, and closed the door again. His steps sounded more and more distant. Signs that the man is walking away from her husband's office. Amelia could breathe.
Slowly, Amelia came out. He was going back to the second floor, his room. But in the living room he met Bram who was sitting while smoking.
"Where are you from, brother?" ask Bram.
DEGR ...
"I'm looking for a marriage book in Mas Thomas's study," Amelia lied. Bram seemed to curl his eyebrows.
"Have you met?"
"U-already," he replied, "I went to the room first! Afraid Aska's looking for me!" answered nod by Bram. But his gaze towards Amelia was very sharp.
"Huf." Amelia took a long breath. He immediately locked his room so that someone could not enter his room.
Amelia sat on the carpet. He opened the newspaper which he had folded into the smallest fold. Form the size of the marriage book.
"I'm sure, Bram is suspicious!" inward Amelia, "What exactly is so special about these newspapers?"
Amelia started reading the paper. The news in the newspaper is just news of the car accident that went into the ravine.
"***An accident occurred on Cinere Road, Block 11. A car hit a roadblock. A couple died on the spot. His two-year-old son is still alive. The child was adopted by a couple. Her husband is a famous businessman from Germany***!" lirih Amelia read sentence after sentence of the news.
"Is that Bram?"
"***After it was discovered that the victim of the accident was a friend of the couple who adopted the boy. His remains are buried at TPU Dahlia***."
"I'm sure the victim of the accident was Bram's parents. But, what does that have to do with the Williams family?"
"Ah, of course it has something to do with it. Mama Celine and the late Papa adopted Bram, "his own monologue.
