"Thank you for trusting me, dear." Lisa kissed William on the cheek with a heavy feeling in her heart. She still wanted to spend time with her only son, but she had to return to Rangga's house.

After the woman left, William stared at his father's stunned face, silent as the man looked at Lisa leaving.

"Papa, why are you so easy to let Mama go! How can this big boss give up so easily?" William rolled his eyes, slightly irritated at Oscar.

Hearing his son's disappointment left Oscar helpless. Where did his son learn to complain?

"You're still a kid, you will understand later when you grow up," Oscar replied with a smile.

"Papa, if you are mean to me, I will tell Mama about it!" William replied irritably. He pursed his lips as he crossed his arms. Looking cute even though he is angry.

"Oh, really? Just try it then," Oscar laughed back. How could he not be amused when his son complained about him as if he was more mature than his age?

Meanwhile at Rangga's house, Lisa entered the living room then walked into the family room. She found Rangga sitting with his legs crossed and a gloomy gaze.

"Why did you come home early?" Lisa thought Rangga was tired after working in the office.

Rangga got up from the sofa and looked closely at Lisa with both hands tucked into his trouser pockets. His eyes were cold. It was rare for this man to look like this.

"Where have you been?" His tone was like that of a cop interrogating a suspected criminal.

The man was really mad, and Lisa knew about it. She will not lie to him, she will tell him everything, about what happened when she was going to church. She will tell Rangga that William is her child. Since she met William, she promised to always be with him even though the distance separated the two. 

Lisa took Rangga's hand and sat on the sofa, telling him how happy she was to meet her son whom she thought had been dead.

Rangga could not confirm how he felt, between being happy and disappointed, but from the outside, he seemed happy. He did it for Lisa's sake, of course. He must accept Lisa as she is, because he will soon marry her. The fact that William is Lisa's child with Oscar won't change anything. Rangga will still think of him as his own son.

"Lisa, I'm happy that you finally met William, who turned out to be your biological son. Crazy, really unexpected!"

Lisa can't express how happy she is. "Yes, I was also shocked. My son William, who they said died at that time…. Mrs. Rusminah also told me that Clara deliberately took William and lied that he was her son so that Oscar would marry her."

No wonder that she felt the boy was very similar to Oscar when she first met William as a baby. The only difference is the color of his eyes and dark hair, which he took after her. But the shape of his face, his good looks, was so much like Oscar!

Lisa was so immersed in happiness, but Rangga was a little worried hearing the story just now. He thought that maybe Lisa and Oscar were destined to live together after they found out that William was their real son.

For the good of their son's life, neither Lisa nor Oscar would possibly break their relationship as easily as breaking the thread of Rangga's thought.

It's not that he isn't confident, but his rival is too strong, and in fact too strong compared to him. Physically, financially, and perhaps strength in bed, Oscar far surpassed him.

It made him even more worried that Lisa loved Oscar with all her heart. He hesitated and worried, thinking about when they would get married later. Would their relationship last forever?

Rangga was lost in his reverie. He did not say a word to make Lisa suspicious. 

Spontaneously, Lisa touched Rangga's trembling hand and said, "I know your worries, it really is apparent from the way you answer and the expression on your face now. But you don't have to worry. It's impossible for me to go back to Oscar, even though William is his son, I won't go back to him. The two of us agreed to raise William together, nothing more, and I, as a mother, have the responsibility for William's life. Hopefully, you will understand me,"

Hearing that felt like a sedative to Rangga. The man began to calm down again. "Okay, I trust you. We're getting married next week!"

"Okay, I promise!" Lisa then hugged Rangga tightly. Providing comfort and security for her future husband.

After talking, Lisa helped Mrs. Sumiyati prepare dinner then invited Rangga to have dinner together.

After dinner, Rangga had a sudden matter so the man strolled into the garage and left using his car. While Lisa stayed at home, feeling tired and bored. The woman then cleared the dining table and dirty dishes.

Shortly after washing the dishes, Lisa's cell phone rings. She picked it up and saw the person calling her.

"Bella!?" 

How shocked she was after reading the familiar numbers. The siblings haven't spoken in a long time, even almost blocking each other's cell phone numbers!

Now her younger sister took the initiative to contact her. What kind of sorcery is this? 

"Yeah?" Lisa asked in amazement.

"I'm in the cafe near Brother Rangga's house. I want to talk to you," Bella sounded calm and expressionless at this time.

Lisa was silent for a moment, and without realizing it, she looked out the window, saying, "What's wrong? Can't we just talk on the phone, Bel?"

In her heart, Lisa didn't want to meet Bella. She thought that cutting ties with her sister, who had completely changed, was the best choice. Their relationship was broken, shattered to pieces.

Lisa was silent on the other side of the phone. Then Bella said, "Why? Are you afraid? I just want to explain something so you understand. It's up to you whether you want to come or not. Anyway, if I don't see you at the cafe in an hour, don't blame me for not reminding you. I'm sure you want to hear this, you'll regret it if you don't come," Bella said in a tone that was a little threatening and made Lisa's curiosity grow. Not long after that, she hung up the call.

Without realizing it, Mrs. Sumiyati came with a mop and saw Lisa's face, which looked pale as if she had just seen a ghost and said, "Miss Lisa, what's wrong? Are you hurt?"

"Oh, I'm fine. I want to go out first," Lisa immediately grabbed her cellphone and jacket then rushed out to the cafe that Bella said on the phone.

Mrs. Sumiyati didn't dare to ask, she just nodded and said in her mind, 'Miss Lisa, what's wrong? Why does she look strange?'

Lisa immediately dashed to the cafe where Bella sat and waited for her. During the trip, her heart beat very fast as if it was about to leave her body. Bella's words on the phone echoed in her mind, making her even more curious.

Arriving at the cafe, Lisa immediately approached Bella and sat in front of her.

"Oh, finally, you came," Bella said calmly.

"What do you want to say to me?" Lisa asked with a serious and suspicious face.

Bella grabbed something from her tote bag. She pulled out a few pieces of paper and handed it to Lisa. "You don't need to rush, just read this first...."
