THE CHARM OF THE VILLAGE GIRL
(FEGG) ~ Inner Support

While Fedo and Kayo were busy shopping, Mattheo was grumbling about not finding her son. The look on his face was so upset that it made the employees not dare to say hello.

"Based on the son of a bitch, where exactly did he go. Already know that this afternoon there is an important meeting, why even go without saying goodbye!" gerutu Mattheo while continuing to call Fedo's number. He then cursed softly when his son again would not answer the call from him.

Really makes people rise in blood.

Unresponsive, Mattheo is forced to replace her son and go to the meeting room. He walked while continuing to grumble before Mattheo's steps were stopped by the presence of someone who suddenly appeared before him.

"Oh, you're Dominic. What's up?" mattheo asked as he stared fixedly at the man who was standing with a strange-looking face.

Dominic why? His face was as gloomy as that of a sleep-deprived person. Is she this way because she was shocked to learn Kanita was pregnant out of wedlock? Ck, what a pity for him, Mattheo's heart.

"Matt, do you have any free time? I want to have a four-eye conversation with you" Dominic asked softly.

Since learning that his daughter is pregnant, Dominic has been unable to close his eyes. His chest was painful and also hot like a burning fire. Actually Dominic has tried to find calm by busying himself with a lot of work in the office. But not the calmness he got, Dominic instead felt like strangled by it. Realizing that he can go crazy if he continues on his own, Dominic finally decides to come to the Eiji Group. He needs to meet with Mattheo to ask her for advice.

"Em, how's it going, Dom? I'm actually very busy right now" Mattheo replied honestly.

There was a heavy sigh coming from Dominic's mouth after he found out that the person he wanted to meet was not having time to chat. He then lowered his head in a doldrums.

"Dom, are you okay?" tanya Mattheo iba saw the helplessness in his partner.

"What can be considered good if my family's good name is on the line, Matt," Dominic replied. "I never thought that Kanita would destroy the trust I had given her all along. I feel like I'm going crazy thinking about it."

Understanding that Dominic really needs a interlocutor, Mattheo finally chose to cancel the meeting. Money is very important, but accompanying people who are on the verge of Mattheo problem will be much more important. Especially now Mattheo can see clearly how frustrating Dominic is to face the problems that are entangling his daughter. Mattheo fears that Dominic will choose a way to end his life. He did not want his comrade to die in such a despicable manner.

"Matt, I'm sorry that I came here and even pestered your work. If only I had somewhere else I could go, I wouldn't be bothering you here" Dominic said, feeling unwell as Mattheo canceled the meeting just to keep him chatting.

"Look easy, Dom. We've been friends for a long time, and I'm not that bad at letting you grieve alone" Mattheo said, patting the shoulder of a man on the verge of despair. "Come to my room. It would be unethical to discuss family affairs in front of workers. They'll eavesdrop."

A small smile appeared on Dominic's lips when he heard Mattheo's joke. After that, they walked to his room.

It's so sorry for you, Dom. Children who should be the pride of your family even throw animal waste by getting pregnant out of wedlock. From this disaster I so take a lesson if not everyone who comes from a distinguished family can have a respected attitude as well. It's just the outside that looks good. But the content in it is even worse like a person who never got educated properly. Hmmm, I hope you are strong in dealing with all these problems, Dominic, Mattheo said in his heart.

"Women still refuse to tell who the men who have impregnated him. It seems like he's not satisfied if he just humiliates my family in this way, Matt," Dominic replied with a wry smile.

"Don't think bad, Dom. Who knows, there's a compelling reason that Kanita won't speak honestly with you. Or if it's not like this. You asked some people to investigate who Kanita was last going to the club with. Maybe that starts from the day Kanita gets out of your house and decides to stay in the apartment!"

Dominic. He then gazed curiously at Mattheo who could tell that Kanita was living outside the house.

"Where do you know that Kanita doesn't live with us, Matt? Don't you know anything about her pregnancy?" ask Dominic suspiciously.

A faint grin appears on Mattheo's lips as he realizes that Dominic is suspecting him. Mattheo then crossed both legs before giving an answer.

"Our family was both targeted by the news hunters, Dom. Let alone Kanita not staying with you, I can even find out what food your daughter likes through the news they spread. With such great media power could it be appropriate for you to suspect me just because I know about where your daughter lives? Come, Dom. You don't joke. I'm sure there's even a lot of people who know that Kanita left home two months ago."

"really? Which newspaper did you read, Matt?"

"Hehe, I actually learned this from my daughter Kayo. Some of her friends are also close friends with Kanita, so that's where we found out where your daughter lives. But honestly, we don't know at all about the cause of Kanita leaving the house. Kayo's friends only said that two months ago Kanita's attitude suddenly changed. He no longer wants to hang out with others and prefers to spend time in the apartment alone. And as for the matter from which we found out that Kanita was pregnant, it was originally only from my wife's suspicions. You know for yourself, don't you think the instincts of those women are so strong? Who would have thought my wife's guess was true. And when I asked Kanita, she wasn't evasive at all!"

Dominic sighed. He leaned his body against the sofa then closed his eyes. Dominic then remembered the words of Mili some time ago who had been suspicious that Kanita was two-bodied.

It turns out that the instincts of women cannot be underestimated. If only I had known this earlier, I would definitely not have felt inferior before Mattheo. Hahh, it seems like it has become my fate to be humiliated right in front of my own friend's face. Women, why are you this cruel to Dad, son, lament Dominic in the heart.

"Dom, I understand how devastated you feel right now. But I hope you don't have dark eyes which can make you feel sorry. Kanita is wrong. But whatever Kanita, she is still your flesh and blood. You may have failed to be a good father to him, but try not to fail to be a grandfather to his son. The baby in Kanita's birth is innocent, and you must not treat her in an unfair way. He's your grandson, he deserves to enjoy life in this world!" mattheo said firmly.

"Can I take it, Matt?" ask Dominic lirih.

"I'm sure you'll do it, Dom. Open your heart to forgive Kanita and focus on persuading her to tell you who your granddaughter's father is."

Mattheo continues to provide inner support by encouraging Dominic to forgive Kanita's mistakes and also accept her baby's presence. Mattheo could have just told Dominic about Andero. But Mattheo chose to remain silent because behind the name there was a plan in which his wife would take control. A little cruel indeed, but this is life. Sometimes we need to be cunning humans to protect innocent people. Just as his wife tried to do to protect Fedo, their proud son.
