Facade Love: Marrying A Perfect Husband

The conversation just ended without saying bye. Dr. Edward sighed. He already knew so well how cold Harry was.

And shortly after that, Dr. Edward got a call from the reception. 

*** 

While Harry contacted someone else for help from him.

Luan answered his calling anxiously. He had just received some shocking news just before his phone rang and shook his heartbeat.

"H-have you a new problem?"

Harry frowned. He sensed Luan was behaving differently. But he still made his offer first.

"Help me to find out any information about Julia," Harry said flatly.

Luan had no idea of what Harry was doing.

"What for?"

Harry answered quickly.

"There is a possibility that Julia is Jenny. And I want to ascertain her background first before making assumptions without obvious evidence and reliable information source."

Luan couldn't hide his surprise.

"She is Jenny? Really? What so coincidence! And how could Jenny be so close to us?"

Harry was still trying to be logical.

"This is still just an estimate and don't tell anyone before I've confirmed it."

Luan moistened his lips.

"I'm glad it's true, Har. But there are more important things that you must investigate thoroughly."

Harry wasn't ready for the bad news yet.

"What is it?"

Luan needed more time to start explaining.

"Your uncle began doing crazy things, Har. And..."

Couldn't convey this sentence properly. Steylla who was beside Luan became furious and pulled Luan's phone.

"All of the tv stations are now reporting about the persecution that happened to Cleo, Bro!" Steylla said angrily.

"They spread the video of Cleo cruelly. And you can't allow Cleo to see it."

Harry's hands trembled. He didn't understand what Steylla was talking about. And he had no idea what video Steylla was told about. Especially now, Steylla is filled with tears and is sad. Luan took her phone back.

"Please restrain your emotions, Har. This is maybe due to an error. But believe me, we are working on removing the video."

Harry hissed with some pressure.

"Send me the video within 3 seconds."

Click.

Harry ended their conversation. Waiting impatiently for the video Luan would send him.

Dr. Edward welcomed Cleo's arrival in a friendly manner. He had been informed by reception that Mrs. Cleo had come especially on someone's orders to see him.

After sitting for a few minutes and talking, Dr. Edward finally found out what precarious situation this unexpected woman was struggling with. He glanced at Julia and adjusted his glasses.

"You want to do a DNA test. And according to your testimony, you are maybe Miss Jenny. Muliawan's daughter who disappeared for 17 years and was shocking the entire family after a long time of not being found?"

Julia looked down.

She couldn't give much confidence that she was Jenny because of childhood memories she couldn't recall. Cleo gave Julia a high push to make her feel better.

"I don't mean to give you high hopes that you might meet your family, Julia. But from now on, just believe me. I will be by your side no matter the outcome."

Julia said her worries honestly.

"I don't know if I deserve to judge others or not. But how about if I truly am Jenny? My father was a troublemaker. And he hasn't been a good man all along."

Julia was glad she could find her father again. However, if she has to be faced with her family who has a bad temper. This predicament will only remind her of her ex-boyfriend, Mike. The man who had already ruthlessly kept her imprisoned.

Cleo grabbed Julia's hand.

"I'm pretty sure he's a good man. He still cares about you. That's why he's looking for trouble with the rest of his family because he couldn't just let you go. He was probably already a troublemaker. But, his intentions are certainly not bad."

Cleo's words made Julia feel better. But he didn't feel one hundred percent became sure. Cleo tried again to reassure her.

"Julia, please trust me. As bad as parents are, they are still our parents. And as bad as they are, they will still love their children. So why are you still doubting that things?"

Cleo suddenly realized the mistake in her words.

"Err, I didn't mean to say that he is a bad man. He just needs more concern. And maybe after he has you by his side. He will of course be much better and calmer."

Dr. Edward tried to be a mediator.

"I've to know your father quite well. He is indeed easy to get angry. But he's not the bad guy you should be afraid of."

Cleo looked at Dr. Edward in a grateful gaze. She was happy to have the support of his words. And just now she began to feel sure that this their action was right.

Cleo looked at Julia once more.

"Then, if he just once hurt you. I will save you and keep you away from him."

Julia couldn't do anything but she kept a smile.

Her feeling became lighter. She was then willing to have some blood taken for testing.

***

A luxury black car with plate B 12 HRY was parked perfectly in front of the Dumaya hospital lobby. Then, a man was sitting in the back passenger seat got out of his car. He sprinted into Edward's office.

Looked around and he hoped Cleo didn't pay attention to today's tv broadcast. Because even though Cleo's face and body are blurred. Cleo's name has been listed as a kidnap victim. Almost died and was brutally tortured at the behest of a man.

Harry felt his chest tighten. Even when he had been betrayed and fooled by Aretta, Harry had never felt this hurt. He prefers himself to suffer over the people he loves.

He would rather his enemies try to destroy only himself, his company, or someone else. As long as it's not Cleo. And this is too cruel for him.

As expected, Harry managed to find Cleo in Edward's study.

They're still converse together. And Harry had not seen Julia anywhere near them. He immediately dashed in uncompromisingly. Hugging Cleo tightly and ignoring the many pairs of eyes watching them.

Cleo responded to this situation with a dumbfounded face.

"What's wrong with you, Harry? Why do you look so panicked and pale?"

Everyone who saw Harry's appearance must have thought the same as Cleo. Harry looked in a hurry and he also looked very worried. He was busy rubbing Cleo's face and repeatedly checking this confused look on her face.

"You've been here a long time and only with Dr. Edward?"

Cleo looked at those dark eyes with some questioning glances.

"Yeah. I am here. And waiting for your arrival. Cause Julia is doing the blood draw."

Harry closed his eyes for a moment. Sighing slowly and he was not letting Cleo ask any more questions in her worrying attitude.

Harry prevented Cleo from asking when he saw that Cleo had opened her mouth.

"I miss you. Really. And I realized I couldn't stay away from you for long."

Cleo became hesitant. She was not used to hearing this tickling sentence in public. Dr. Edward cleared his throat.
