GIRL IN RED
CHAPTER 388. I'M GONNA DIVORCE YOU
Alarik pulls Rania's hand out of the living room and takes her to their room. Alarik closed the door so hard that it made Rania surprised and held onto her chest. “I've warned you repeatedly! I can read what's on your mind right now!”
“Ap-what do you mean my husband?” asked Rania with a stutter.
“Download all the plans you have in mind right now! Tomorrow I will ask the Serkan family lawyer to take care of our divorce! I've tolerated you for a long time now Rania! But not this time! I won't let you hurt Arimbi!”
“What? You want to divorce me just because of Arimbi? Oh, that's great! I served you as a wife for many years and now you want to divorce me? Alaric! Tell me the truth, have you been seeing another woman behind my back?”
“You're really crazy Rania! I've been quiet for so long!”
Alarik is reluctant to fight with Rania, all this time he only tolerates his wife. He realized that he failed as a husband who educated wives. But since the incident Rania who conspired with Zivanna made Alarik lose his sympathy and affection for the wife who had accompanied him for many years.
For Alarik, what Rania did was outrageous. Especially now that he knew what was in his wife's mind must be a bad thing. The more Rania the more she shows her bad nature. Has the woman been living too comfortably in the Serkan family, making her very selfish?
For many years Rania was the eldest daughter-in-law of the Serkan family, which meant that she had more power than her sister-in-law. Monthly money and facilities he got more as the eldest daughter-in-law in the family. But Alarik never thought that Rania was as bad and evil.
How can a mother choose a bad woman for her son? Even collaborating wants to unite his son with the woman of his choice? And now it seems like Rania still hates Arimbi and is planning something else? Alarik will not let his wife ruin his family life.
He had been quiet for a long time and had kept quiet about whatever Rania was doing. As long as his wife doesn't make trouble for him, Alarik keeps quiet whenever Rania spends more time on vacation with his social friends. Their marriage used to be a business wedding. There is no love but respect for both families.
But increasingly, Alarik often felt disappointed with Rania who was too spoiled and never served him as a husband. And when Alarik saw how Arimbi's treatment of the Emir jolted his heart, he never got married in years like Arimbi had given the Emir.
Rania never even prepared her bath water, or simply cooked food for her. Everything was done by the waiter, it made Alarik very fond of Arimbi because he knew the sincerity of his daughter-in-law's heart. Whatever he'll do to keep his son's marriage going.
Although that would mean he would have to divorce Rania if her wife was trying to destabilize the Emir and Arimbi household. But at the moment he can't say anything to Layla Serkan, his mother. Alarik stared intently at Rania who was crying sobbing but not the slightest touch of her heart.
He knows his wife well enough, and this time he won't let Rania play her water drama again. The happiness of his son is much more important! After all, she was very happy because Arimbi treated her like her own parents. Not infrequently Arimbi cook Emir's favorite food and also give to Alarik.
“If you're done crying! Clean your face and body so you don't look ugly! The older instead of the better, the worse you are!” Alarik.
Hearing her husband's words immediately made Rania stop her crying.
‘Sial! Looks like Alarik is no longer touched by my tears! Am I going to lose everything now? Why does everyone love Arimbi so much? What the hell is that girl? Just because she was pregnant with Serkan's offspring?’
Rania was panicked and a bit of fear started to whack her heart. ‘No! I can't get divorced with Alarik! Arrgggg.....it's a shame that all the upper classes know that I am divorced from my husband? Surely they will think that I am a bad woman so the Serkan family dumped me?’
Alarik who had entered the bathroom cleaned his body, now he came out of the bathroom and changed clothes. Then he glanced at Rania and said, “Those years I let you do whatever pleases your heart! Not that you can act as you please!”
“No! You can't do that. Husband, I admit I was wrong.I'm sorry! Please don't divorce me!” rania said frantically and held her husband's hand pleading with a face of compassion.
“I don't like having a mean wife and lying to me for years!”
“No! My husband, I never lied to you. What the hell are you saying? I admit what I did with Zivanna before but it's over. After all that woman has disappeared and even if she is here now where might I let her approach my son! He's not worth it!”
“I'm not talking about what you and Zivanna did before! I'm discussing something else! A lie you've kept all this time! Think carefully about Rania! Or am I the one who will expose everything in front of the entire Serkan family and get you expelled and humiliated?”
Rania scrunched her forehead not understanding what her husband was talking about. Alarik threw out Rania's hand which held her arm violently.
The middle-aged woman was thinking yet she did not understand anything. He felt that he had never done anything wrong then why lately did Alarik seem to be so angry at him?
The more Rania thought about it, the more dizzy and clueless she became. “I don't understand what you mean, my husband! Everything has been fine in my family all this time. But lately I've seen you often angry and not as warm as I used to be. Please tell me what mistake I made that made you angry?”
“Oh you still don't want to talk? All right, Rania, let me tell you something. Maybe that way you'll remember a little!” said Alarik who was getting sharper looking at Rania. “For the past six years what have you done with your personal money? Are you doing business with your socialite friends?”
“Heh? I don't understand my husband. Why are you suddenly asking about my personal money?” rania asked furrowed her brows and tried to think about the meaning of her husband's words. But he still could not pull the red thread.
“Are you hiding something from me?”
“Ah, not my husband! Have we not been traveling together often? You know everything, right?”
“Ehm....I'm not talking about the past three years! We have been traveling a lot for the last three years after the accident that hit the Emir. But I was talking about six years ago.”
For some reason, Rania suddenly felt unsettled as she heard for the second time her husband mentioned it six years ago. ‘Ah, there is no way what Alarik is talking about has anything to do with the events of that time right? No....no....no way! No one knows about it.’
“I gave you two days to think about what I said. I've tried to talk about this before when we were overseas. But this time is your last chance Rania! I'll have the driver take you to the villa. And contemplate everything there for these two days. I think it's enough time to take care of the divorce.”
Alarik didn't wait for Rania to speak because she didn't want to hear anything anymore. He immediately got out of the room and asked the waiter to pack Rania's clothes and asked the driver to drive her to the villa. Panicked Rania did not know what to do, she looked pale and walked back and forth in the room.
‘What is really going on? Why did everything suddenly turn out like this? Does Alarik know anything? Did anyone tell him? No way! This must be all his imagination! But Rania's daydreams were scrapped when the maid opened the room door. “Mistress, the car is ready and the driver is waiting for the madam in front.”
“Ap---what?” Rania stammered.
