BXBX NOVEL Chapter 761 - Giving Yourself To Punish Yourself
"You shouldn\'t have done this!" Diana said, shaking her head in resignation.
Anya looked at the expressions of her two mothers and heard what they were saying. Her mothers knew her father so much better than she did that she immediately realized what had happened.
"So… It\'s true, right? You were the one who got Keara out of prison, huh? Do you know that it\'s a crime?" Anya said. In her heart, she repeatedly prayed that her guess was wrong. But it looked like her prayers didn\'t reach the sky this time.
Galih held his head with both hands and lowered it sadly. "What could I do? When I saw her dying, how could I just let her die? Keara is my daughter. It\'s all my fault that she became like this. I can\'t just let her go!"
"Galih, answer my question. Do you regret saving her?" Indah said while crying.
Galih just lowered his head without being able to answer the question. It was clear that he was very confused.
At that time, the police arrived and informed them of the investigation of the explosion case.
"We found out that Aiden Atmajaya ordered two bouquets of flowers and gave them to Anya Pratama for Iris Parfume Academy. On the back of the bouquet was an inscription that it was indeed ordered for the Iris Perfume Academy. So, the bouquet that Aiden Atmajaya ordered is the one still intact in front of the school," the police officer showed Galih the order note, travel document and acceptance letter.
From the data, nothing was wrong. It\'s true that Aiden sent a bouquet of flowers to his own wife.
"But Agnes said that Aiden sent the exploding wreath!" Galih said angrily.
The officer scratched his head in confusion. It was their first time investigating a strange case like this in years.
"There is something wrong with Agnes\' confession. She said that Aiden sent the bouquet. But actually, she ordered the bouquet herself," the police officer said.
"What?" Galih was surprised.
Diana and Indah also heard that Agnes herself ordered a bouquet of flowers with the bomb. What did she really want?
"Where did the wreath come from?" Anya asked.
The police then explained further. "We\'ve checked that the bouquet was ordered by Agnes from out of town. The shop owner had heard this news and ran away. We have confiscated the computer from the store and checked the order and delivery address."
"Is there a delivery address?" Galih asked.
"Yes. Agnes sent a bouquet with the bomb to Iris Perfume Academy. But the courier who sent it was confused because the two schools were standing opposite each other and there was still no name or identification. They saw that Iris Perfume Academy had already gotten a lot of bouquets and concluded that this one was for the school in front of it. So in the end, they put it in front of the dance school," the officer explained very patiently.
Anya found this story very ridiculous and asked, "So Agnes ordered the exploding wreath for me, but the courier sent the wrong one and instead sent it to her own school. She grabbed the detonator and tried to kill me as I stood next to the wreath, but ended up injuring herself instead. Is that true?"
One of the younger cops also found the tragedy very ridiculous. He wanted to laugh but tried to cover it up by coughing.
The older cop immediately glared at him and said, "So far, that\'s the conclusion we\'ve come to. The florist herself worked on the bouquet with the bomb, but she had run away. Her subordinates were only responsible for delivering them.
"Thank you for investigating. Agnes had committed a crime and wanted to kill those who were good to her. After all this happened, she wanted to throw the responsibility on us who did nothing. I hope she gets the punishment she deserves," Anya said calmly.
"I didn\'t think she would be that cruel," Indah said sadly.
Diana patted her on the shoulder. "Don\'t think about it anymore. The important thing is that everything is fine now."
"Mr. Galih, we heard that you are very close to Agnes. We need your help and would like to ask some questions about her," said the police officer.
Galih looked at Indah and bowed his head in regret. "Anya, take good care of your mother. I\'m going first."
Anya realized that Galih would no longer be able to avoid his mistakes. If Agnes hadn\'t done anything to arouse suspicion, maybe they could all live in peace. And the memory of that damn woman would forever be buried in the ground.
"Father, just tell me what you know. Don\'t add to the story. My mother and I have nothing to do with Agnes," said Anya. She was really disappointed with her father and couldn\'t trust him anymore.
She didn\'t want her father to drag her mother\'s name.
"I am sorry. Please take care of your mother for me!" After saying that, Galih walked out following the officer.
"Galih… Galih…" Indah ran towards the door and cried when she saw Galih get into the police car without looking back.
…
That night, Aiden told Anya that Galih had admitted all his mistakes and he would be imprisoned for a long time.
Agnes, or who should be called Keara, was transferred to a hospital owned by a local prison and the harshest sentence awaited her.
Indah repeatedly came to the prison, wanting to visit Galih. But the man did not want to see her and only left a letter, saying that he apologized and was sorry for his actions.
Keara wanted to meet Indah, but Indah refused.
The child she raised was like her own, the one she spoiled, the one she cared about and loved, tried to kill her. She would never want to see Keara again for the rest of her life!
When Indah lost her daughter, she poured all her affection and love on Keara, vowing that she would make her happy forever.
Even though she had to grieve for the loss of her daughter, she never blamed Keara for it. Indah is always full of love.
She treated Keara as her own daughter, hoping that someone out there would find her daughter and treat her the same way she loved her.
But how did Keara return the favor?
She changed Anya\'s DNA test, preventing Indah from finding her biological daughter. She also killed Anya\'s unborn child. After that, she repeatedly wanted to kill Anya.
Indah really regretted raising a child like her! She didn\'t know what was wrong with her upbringing and love that made Keara like this.
Keara, as she got badly injured from the explosion, looked really sad and dispirited. She didn\'t even have the ability to kill herself.
Then, Galih was imprisoned for what she did.
So what\'s the point of meeting her father now? Even if she dies, Indah won\'t want to meet Keara again!
…
After Galih and Keara were imprisoned, Anya and Aiden\'s lives were peaceful again. After this, there would be a big event at the Atmajaya Family, namely the first birthdays of the two little bosses, Arka and Aksa.
Lately, Arka and Aksa have started to be able to walk on their own though still a little wobbly and unbalanced.
When she saw her sons, Anya thought of her father who was in prison and felt sad.
"Aiden, can you find a way to get my father out of prison so he can attend Arka and Aksa\'s birthday party?" Anya asked in a low voice.
Aiden embraced her and kissed her forehead gently. "Your father doesn\'t even want to meet your mother. Do you think he would want to go out and attend our children\'s birthday party?"
"There\'s no harm in trying. Mom and I don\'t blame him," Anya took a deep breath.
"He was deceived by Keara. After all, Keara was his biological daughter. Now that I know everything, I feel like all of this is unfair to you," Aiden said in a low voice. "If he didn\'t confess, no one would know about Keara. He turned himself in and gave up on Keara because he wanted to punish himself."
"I don\'t know if he wants to punish himself or punish me and mom by not wanting to see us. Find a way to meet him and persuade him to come to our sons\' birthday party."
Anya has only one hope— her husband.
