Perfect Revenge : CEO's Lovely Mistress

Haikal’s voice was full of ridicule, as if he wasn’t talking to his future in-laws.

If only Budi had been willing to help him from the start, the problem wouldn’t have become this big.

Actually, it was Haikal who deliberately made things worse. Since Budi didn’t want to help him, he decided to act cruelly.

“Haikal?” Hearing Haikal’s voice, Budi felt like there was a fire burning in his chest. But this was not the time to be looking for trouble again. He must immediately solve this one problem so that the problem didn’t get more complicated.

“What are you planning?” Budi asked patiently.

“Father, it’s not good to change the topic,” Haikal said as he fiddled with the glass beside him. He sounded relaxed as he said, “I wonder if you’re willing to invest your money to help me?”

“Do you think I can help you?” Budi asked grimly. “I also want to help you. But do you know who Ella is with now?”

“Right. She’s with Christian,” Haikal replied, clenching his fists.

.....

Because of that man, Haikal had been humiliated several times. Of course he didn’t want it to happen, but what could he do?

Status and position determine everything. Christian was way above him and he wouldn’t be able to fight back.

At the thought that the man owned Ella now, Haikal’s eyes filled with anger.

“Not only that.” Budi snorted in annoyance. “Even if we work together, we won’t be able to fight Christian. Plus, when I went to see Ella this afternoon, I saw her with William Jaya.”

“William Jaya?” Haikal frowned when he heard the name.

William Jaya or better known as Liam was the son of the Jaya Family who recently returned to Indonesia. Granted from his appearance, Liam looked like a simple and polite man, but in fact he was a great man with extraordinary standing.

As soon as he got involved in corporate affairs, his family company immediately grew very rapidly. There were so many people who wanted to work with him.

But how did he and Ella get to know each other?

Budi knew that the question had appeared in Haikal’s mind and immediately explained, “Liam and Ella are childhood friends. They both have a good relationship. Until ten years ago, Liam left Indonesia and they lost contact. Who would’ve known that he would return to Indonesia to look for Ella,” Budi said, glaring at Indri with annoyance.

If what happened five years ago had not happened, Budi would not have missed a great opportunity to connect with the Jaya Family. Now Liam was the target of so many people and everyone was trying to work with him.

Also with Christian ...

If only Budi could have both, his family would reach a new point that he had never reached before.

The more he thought about it, the more he regretted everything that had happened.

Merry frowned upon seeing her husband and said, “What is important now is how to solve this problem. It doesn’t matter how much money we spend so we can keep this family’s dignity. Are you willing to let our family’s good name be tarnished?”

What Merry said was right on point.

Budi didn’t want to lose that much money. But maintaining the reputation of the Maheswara Family was far more important than keeping his wealth.

“What should I do now?” He said, looking at Indri angrily. “All these troubles happened because of this brat!”

Indri did not dare to say anything, she could only focus her attention on Haikal who was on the phone.

She was afraid that Haikal didn’t want her anymore.

She felt angry and complained about Haikal’s attitude. But she was much more afraid that someone would snatch Haikal from her.

Haikal was thinking about what Budi said to him just now.

Ella and Liam... They were childhood friends?

This new information was a big surprise for him. During his time with Ella, he had never heard her say Liam’s name.

That means Liam was not very important in Ella’s life.

When he reached that conclusion, Haikal’s heart felt much calmer.

He wanted to protect his company, but that didn’t mean he’d stop chasing after Ella.

Budi looked at Indri’s panicked face and decided not to tell his daughter what he knew.

“Haikal, I will help you. But can you help me solve Indri’s problem?”

“It doesn’t matter.”

After reaching an agreement, Haikal immediately ended the call.

Meanwhile, Budi’s face became unsightly. He didn’t like his future son-in-law’s attitude. He looked at Indri and smashed his coffee cup on the floor, right beside Indri.

“You have to pay half of the money!”

“Father?” Indri’s eyes widened in disbelief.

Half of 800 million? That meant, Indri had to spend 400 million from her own pocket! Where could she get that much money?

So far, Indri had no savings of her own.

The money she used to buy clothes and jewelry came from her father. She also ate at her family’s house. Just like her mother.

The only thing she had was jewelry and also expensive things that Ella had given her.

But Ella had threatened her that she would take all her belongings back.

How could Indri dare to touch Ella’s things again?

In conclusion, Indri would not be able to get that money.

Just as Indri wanted to talk again, Budi immediately looked at her with a fierce face. “Don’t forget, I have to spend money to fund Haikal’s project.”

That one sentence made Indri discouraged. She also had to think about Haikal. If she asked her father for help, her father might cancel his intention to help Haikal.

Budi snorted and left the living room, leaving Indri and Merry alone. Merry took a deep breath and helped her daughter who was kneeling on the floor.

“Don’t worry. The important thing now is that your father has promised to help Haikal. Think of it as a blessing in this disaster.”

Merry’s words of consolation made Indri frown even more.

She didn’t want to be involved in such a difficult situation. But since she was too pampered from childhood, Indri couldn’t control her emotions.

“Mother, where can I get 400 million from?”

Merry also frowned when she heard Indri’s words. She did not have that much money. But after thinking about it, she said, “I will help you find a way.”

Indri’s eyes immediately turned relieved. Indeed, her mother was the only person she could rely on.

“Thank you, mom.”
