The Beauty Inside: Stealing The First Kiss, Get a Wife Chapter 215
Advertisement
*Knock knock* From the outside, it seemed that the room door wasn't just knocked. Someone had deliberately broken it.
"Honey, come with me..". He pulled her quickly.
"Where, Hen?". This girl began to be suspicious. Hendra pulled her down the hall to the bathroom.
"Hide here for a while. I'll talk to your brother first".
"Hen, you know I'm afraid of the bathroom?!".
"Sorry, there's no other choice. Come inside..". That man finally pushed her.
"Hen.. I'm afraid.. Don't do this..". Aruna remembered the last incident when she was locked in the bathroom. It made her so traumatized.
"Only this place is soundproof. Stay inside until I'm sure your brother won't take you away from me". He really intended to lock the girl in the bathroom once again.
"Don't.. I beg you. Don't do it..". Aruna tried to fight against his will, pushing the door so that Hendra wouldn't do it.
"Hendra, I'm afraid. Don't do this. I beg you..". And that voice disappeared behind the door. He actually locked his wife in the bathroom.
"I'm sorry, Honey. I don't want to lose you". He was even more possessive because he understood that the relationship between the Wenceslas family and his wife's family was in chaos.
.
"You don't need to do that". Raka came to greet Anantha. The lead aide had sneaked into the housekeeping's room and took the Wenceslas Group heir's spare key card since the first time he came. He realized that no one could break down the door of Wenceslas Ritz's VIP room.
"Good. It turns out that you guys didn't break your promise to help us take our sister back". Anantha replied, watching that man open the door so easily.
"Take your own sister. I don't want to be seen betraying Hendra. Unless you have trouble, call me. I'll be waiting here". Raka was sent by Wiryo to make it easier for Lesmana's family to take their daughter. He knew Hendra couldn't take it easy and everyone knew the blue-eyed was a stubborn man who couldn't possibly be persuaded, let alone change his mind.

When that door opened, Hendra looked surprised but he was more focused on preparing himself to negotiate with Aruna's brother.
"Where's my sister?!".
Hendra offered a chair for Aruna's brother to sit down.
"What do you want?". Anantha didn't want to sit down. He watched the room closely.
"Let me ask for your time. I already know your family cut ties. It doesn't mean that Aruna and I have to end". Hendra insisted that he wanted to solve this problem with a cool head.
"Who do you think made her like this? You and your grandfather are the same. Sorry. My father used to come to your grandfather many times to stop the marriage contract. My father pleaded desperately and you guys still insisted you didn't want to change your decision. Just because you guys are more powerful, you use that power to destroy my sister's future". Anantha started to speak and put pressure on his brother-in-law.
"Don't you realize that the situation is different now? Aruna and I are already living together. Do you guys know that it hurts both of us?". Hendra tried his best. One mistake would make him really lose Aruna. His wife's family had made a big decision that was so surprising. Hendra didn't know what the problem was. One thing for sure, he had to defend the tiny woman who had filled his life.
"But Aruna wants to go home, right? You can't escape that truth".
Anantha's question made him freeze.
"You can't even guarantee my sister's safety! Except locking her up. So let me take my sister". Anantha didn't want to sit down. His eyes were getting red with anger after finding Aruna's cellphone lying on the floor.
"Please, don't take her. Give me a chance to fulfill all her wishes..". Hendra's voice was ignored by his interlocutor. Aruna's older brother grabbed her cellphone from the floor and started walking down the room.
"STOP!". Hendra started to hold Anantha's shoulder, hoping that Aruna's older brother would stop his search. He started glancing at the bathroom hallway.
"I don't want to argue with you". Hendra pulled his shoulder.

"DID YOU LOCK HER IN THE BATHROOM AGAIN?!".
"No one can take my wife".
"How dare you call my sister your wife. Your marriage is just a contract, right?". Anantha didn't want to budge. He let go of the grip of Wenceslas's heir.
"You're wrong. It's just a misunderstanding". Hendra pushed Anantha who kept trying to go to the bathroom hallway.
"How dare you do this to me. Are you not satisfied? Using my sister to cure your illness. After making her a guinea pig, you still want to lock her up". Anantha's statement made Hendra surprised this time.
What did he mean? Who made Aruna the guinea pig? Why did everything get so messed up all of a sudden? Could this all be planned?
Surprisingly, the blue-eyed man was punched by Anantha and Mahendra got up slowly, trying to find a balance. Before it was too late, he pulled his opponent's shirt to stop Aruna's brother's footsteps from heading towards the bathroom door.
Hendra needed to get to the bathroom door first because the key was still hanging there.
Once again, Anantha resisted fiercely. Hendra didn't take any meaningful retaliation because he still wanted to continue his family ties with his wife's relatives.
He was just trying to stop Anantha from approaching the bathroom door.
Surprisingly, when Hendra managed to reach the key, Anantha shouted loudly: "Hey you who's outside HELP ME!".
A moment later, Raka came. He pointed his gun at Mahendra.
"Huh? What's this?!". Hendra was very surprised by Raka's behavior. It turned out that everything had been prepared. This wasn't a coincidence. Raka's involvement answered everything.
"Just do it if you dare to shoot me". Hendra said, making Raka confused.
There's no way the resident of the D floor shot the sole heir of Wenceslas. The existence of that place and everything that was formed was to maintain the continuity of his master's family, the main family of the owner of the Wenceslas Makmur Group.
"I'm sorry". Raka uttered an apology then lowered his gun. The tension disappeared from Mahendra's face while Anantha felt that he was being fooled.
Finally, the head of the bodyguard took Anantha's body away while continuing to observe Hendra who was opening the bathroom door.
" Wenceslas, you're all bastards". Anantha could only curse.
A moment later, Aruna's brother's hand was released. This man was confused as to why he let him go. Anantha was trying to find out. He turned his body to observe what was happening.
At the other end, the blue-eyed man was caught off guard. He was surprised, staring at his wife's body that had fallen on the floor.
Someone hit his head from behind, not sure what was used to hit the back of the body. He had trouble standing up again. Something was injected into his body. He slowly lost his consciousness.
Hendra tried hard to fight the drowsiness that made his eyes want to close. The tears from his eyes continued to flow. In his lack of awareness, he saw the body of the woman he loved being embraced and lifted by her brother. Aruna was taken away. She, who fainted from being locked in the bathroom, couldn't speak to her brother and couldn't show the worry that was often presented to the blue-eyed man.
"Huh.. Huh..". That breath was Mahendra's breath. A breath that was exhaled with hope.
_Don't take Aruna.. Don't take my treasure.._
.
"It's your first time to a place like this, right?".
"Come on, Hendra. This building won't collapse because of the sound".
"Good afternoon.. Aruna is coming..".
"Today, Aruna brought many gifts".
"Sis Runa, what are we doing today?".
"We'll make beautiful bracelets".
"Sis, who's the man in the back?".
"He's been quiet ever since".
"You want to get to know each other?".
"Hendra, bring me the beads I bought earlier".
"He's CEO Hendra. A kind person who has bought many gifts for you".
"Let's say thank you to him".
"Thank you..". Some of the children jumped and clapped.
In his long sleep, a man still dreamed of his woman.
