Aldo's eyes turned bright to see Ivona entering the meeting room. As Mrs Carminda and Doctor Rafi follow behind him, Colonel General Johnny looks nervous. He knew and knew the middle-aged woman well, because she was involved in separating the forbidden relationship between Frans and Carminda. After all they did not expect at all, if there was a continuation of the relationship between the two people.
"Carmind.., you still look the same as you used to. There's not the slightest change in you, except for our countless young ages." in a choked up voice, Colonel General Johnny greeted Carminda. Ivona became astonished and looked at the face of the old man standing in front of her. But no matter how many times she saw him, Ivona did not know the man. Likewise with Richard, the man was surprised how quickly his grandfather's men immediately recognized Ivona's mother.
"A very long time Colonel.., may our meeting times not be to drive me out of here." - with a tone of sarcasm, Carminda responded to the saying. The middle-aged woman was not afraid in the least, her strength as a mother who had to protect her daughter, made her steadfast.
Everyone in the meeting room fell silent, fortunately the situation was quickly brought under control. Colonel Johnny's bodyguards brought in people who felt they had no interest in the room. Madam Theodora, and several important people in the laboratory were immediately taken out by the bodyguard. When the bodyguard is about to hold Doctor Rafi, Ivona unexpectedly detains the doctor from staying with her. Richard, Aldo and Marcus looked at Ivona questioningly.
"Doctor Rafi stays here, this man is Ivona's father." unexpectedly, Ivona recognizes Doctor Rafi as her father. Everyone looked at the girl and the man who was with her with a look of doubt. Doctor Rafi was even a little shocked by the girl's lightness.
Carminda was also slightly taken aback by the statement her daughter made publicly. The middle-aged woman shifted her body beside Doctor Rafi, and embraced the girl.
"What are you saying girl.., has Carmind not told you who you really are? How's that got to do with that guy?" colonel General Johnny carefully questioned Ivona.
"Sorry Mr. Johnny. I'm sorry I didn't really recognize your title at military command headquarters. For Ivona right now, the blood relation is just a coincidence to be able to cause me to be born into this world. But the one who was always with me, selflessly helping and caring for my mother, he was the one who was worthy of Ivona to call as papa. Rather than a coward whose whereabouts are unclear." in long sentences, Ivona answered Johnny's question.
Richard was surprised by the direction of the conversation, as Frans son of the mother whom his father married, he became confused. Papa and his late mother never told him anything about the past and the mistakes his father had made. In that case, Richard simply kept silent to see how this discussion could be received. He himself also could not blame Ivona's attitude, let alone their arrival this time involving the military command headquarters. Seeing the discussion instead develop unilaterally, Aldo felt as the party who wanted to bring Ivona out of it immediately, immediately forward weaning the situation.
"I'm sorry Colonel General.., are we not going to talk about the focus of the reason we came to this laboratory?? It would be nice if we put aside the mistakes that have occurred in the past, we can solve after our main problem is finished." Aldo carefully spoke to Colonel General Johnny. Richard was silent, he didn't know what to say.
***********
Moments after Colonel Johnny made his point of coming here, Carminda fell silent. In her heart she felt happy, without sacrificing Doctor Rafi's interests, Ivona would be able to get out of that lab. But the main problem is that Ivona objected to parting with him. The only way he has to accompany his daughter, but he has already promised to give Rafi a place with him. They've promised to spend their old age in that lab together.
Ivona turned her face and looked at the middle-aged woman. Doctor Rafi smiled and nodded her head, the man understood what the girl was worried about.
"Nana.., I'll take good care of Carmind. No one will be able to disturb or oppress him. Go daughter..!" unexpectedly, Doctor Rafi called Ivona as my daughter. Everyone looked towards them.
"Thank you papa.., get married first you two. Once you've tied yourself up, Ivona's just getting out of this lab" Ivona's reply surprised everyone in the meeting room. Richard's face blackened, his hope of uniting Lady Carminda with her father immediately bursting to hear the girl's decision.
"My daughter, don't think no. Mama will do it someday." said Carminda refused subtly the girl's request.
"If so.., Ivona will remain here to accompany mama," with a hard heart.. Ivona continues to force her mother to marry Doctor Rafi. The girl thought the two people had already sacrificed a lot, so they had to be put together immediately, so,
A moment of silence pervaded the place, all immersed in their own thoughts. Suddenly Aldo opened his voice..
"Alright if it's a prerequisite that Nana asks to get out of here, why don't we just obey her, Even if this marriage is going to be done right now, I can arrange it easily." a sentence indicating power was heard in the meeting room. But the man also cannot be denied his obsession, he takes his own judgment.
"Do it.., I'll follow you if you can grant me that wish." unexpectedly, Ivona said Aldo. The man smiled, as he felt he was getting closer to his steps to unite with the girl.
"Alright wait for Nana.., I'll contact my people in this country." Aldo went out without saying goodbye. He contacts Johan to make arrangements for the wedding of Carminda and Doctor Rafi. Some people waiting outside saw the back of the man who was making the phone call.
