Chapter 652 - New Lover (2/2)
Della looked at him with doubt and fear. ”Sir, thank you for helping me earlier. God will repay your kindness. Can you help me one more time?”
”Give me a reason why I have to help you,” Raka's lips formed a cynical smile and his eyes looked at her arrogantly. ”I don't like getting into other people's business.”
”Raka, do you know who she is? This is the girl arranged by Halim Mawardi to marry his retarded son, but she ran away from house. She said she'd better go home and marry that stupid Halim than to come with me!” Wira grabbed Della's hand forcefully.
Della felt her heartbeat elevated. She seemed to lose her hope of escaping. Then she looked at Raka and begged, saying all the reasons that came into her mind. ”Mr. Raka, I ran away from home because of you. I actually like you!”
Hearing this, Wira bursted out laughing. ”Raka, do you know her?”
”I didn't know her before, but now I know her,” Raka looked at Della with a half surprised and half amused look. He found this girl a little funny for saying such a ridiculous excuse at times like this.
To protect herself, she even said that she ran away from home for him.
”But she said she ran away from her house because of you. If she can't return to the Mawardi family's house, I can take care of her for you,” Wira said with a laugh.
Della pulled her hand and ran towards Raka, almost kneeling at his feet. ”Sir, please help me. I'll do whatever you want. I will work for you.”
Everyone in the room sneered and looked at her with contempt.
Raka wanted to get rid of Della from in front of him. However, he did not want to be rude to a woman.
”Stand up. Let's talk,” Raka said calmly.
Della got up and immediately hid behind him.
”Raka, don't take that girl with you. As a friend, I'm being kind to remind you. If you take that girl, the Mawardi Family will be looking for you. You have to give a large amount of money or gifts to propose to the girl, or else her family will make a fuss over all of this. They might accuse you of kidnapping their daughter,” said Wira.
Raka nodded. ”How about you? What were you trying to do earlier?”
”I'm just teasing her,” Wira shrugged his shoulders indifferently as if he had lost his interest in the toy he wanted. ”It's been a long time since I saw you. Shall we go have a drink?” Wira offered.
Raka took the opportunity to send Della away, while he stayed behind to distract Wira.
However, no one expected that he would find his face plastered on the front page of all the news in the next morning.
The President Director of Mahendra Group had a new lover.
The lover mentioned by the news was Della Mawardi, daughter of the Mawardi family. Della said in front of everyone that she fled from her house to pursue Raka.
People believed that Della should have been the adopted daughter of the Mawardi family who was about to be married off to their mentally challenged first son. But in the end, Della fell in love with Raka and ran away from home for months.
Not only that, someone said that he often saw Della in and out of Raka's residence so that some people assumed that they were living together.
Anya saw the news while she was having breakfast.
”Aiden, look at this news. They said Raka is in a relationship with Della,” said Anya.
Aiden saw the news briefly and felt that the news was fake. ”Maybe it's true that Della ran away from her marriage for Raka. But do you believe that Raka has been living with her?”
”Let me ask Raka directly.” Anya just took her cellphone from the table and intended to find Raka's number, but Aiden's sharp gaze instantly stopped her.
