CRAZY OFFER  

Liliana looked at Nadine in disbelief, How could she ask to marry a man who had ruined her life? Liliana didn't know what to answer now. But, Nadine's confession made her scared. And David said that he was a sinner. But, the new fact that it turned out that Nadine could not give offspring to David made Liliana anxious.

"I know you need some time to think, so I'll give you some time, Li."

"I ... I don't know what to answer, Mrs. How could I marry Mr.David?"

"I'll pay you a lot of money if you get pregnant. But, you have to admit that it was David's son. You can't tell anyone if you've been raped by someone you don't know."

Liliana swallowed her saliva, " Mrs ... Let's just wait a few more weeks. I hope I'm not pregnant, " she replied softly.

"What if you're pregnant? You're gonna say yes?"Nadine asked a little cornered. Liliana let out a long breath then exhaled slowly.

"I'll think about it first, Mrs."

"Okay, let's wait then."

Their conversation stopped when the bell rang. Liliana, who was about to get up and open the door, stopped her movement when she saw Nadine's head shake. Soon Nadine was back with a middle-aged woman who looked very friendly.

"Li, This is Siti. She's one of the housekeepers in my house. While she will stay here and accompany you, " said Nadine. Liliana stretched out her hand and smiled at Siti.

"Siti, please help Liliana. If anything, Call Me quickly. You don't have to work first, oke."

Liliana nodded her head limply, " Thank you very much, Mrs. I owe my life to you, " she said. Hearing Liliana's words, Nadine smiled triumphantly.

"I'm waiting for your answer a month from now. I'll go first, oke."

Nadine immediately grabbed her bag and walked away leaving Liliana and Siti both. While he still had to do some shooting.

David frowned when he saw that Nadine was already at home and was tidying up the dining table.

"Where is Siti?" he asked Nadine.

"In the apartment with Liliana," Nadine replied with a smile.

David frowned, " are you going to Liliana's place? For what?"

Nadine let out a deep breath, then approached David and guided him to sit down.

"You would be surprised if I told you that I had just saved Liliana's life," Nadine said as she sat next to David, looking at her intensely.

"What has happened?" asked David. In his heart, he was worried about Liliana's condition. If something happened to the girl, she would feel very guilty.

"At first, I was just curious because she had not entered without notice. So, I stopped by the apartment. Fortunately, I arrived on time, otherwise, there would have been news about a girl who committed suicide."

David's second reflex hand grabbed Nadine's shoulder, and he panicked.

"But, Liliana is okay? Tell me!" said David. Nadine immediately brushed David's hands off her shoulders, " Hey, patience big master. Why are you panicking like this? Liliana is fine. Just then, when I barged in, she almost cut off her pulse. But, I managed to thwart it. That's why I told Siti to accompany Liliana there. Why are you freaking out, anyway?"

"I panicked, if she died there, we would have been carried away as well. Do you want the news to be in the media? That would be a scandal for our company, " David said. He didn't want Nadine to be suspicious because of his attitude.

Hearing David's words, Nadine was just smiling.

"She was raped, David. Unfortunately, she didn't know who had fucked her. Didn't you and Liliana have a drink with your client that night?"David was silent, Liliana did not open their secrets.

"That night, Liliana was drunk. sHe told us to go into the room first. After that, I did not know anymore because I was also a little drunk and went straight back to the room."

"I offered her to go back there and check the CCTV footage. There must be CCTV footage along the hallway. Liliana said she didn't remember if she had closed the door properly that night. To open the door is difficult. But, when she woke up in the morning she found herself wearing nothing and there was a bloodstain on the bed sheet also she felt pain."

David listened to Nadine's story carefully. Liliana was deliberately covering up what had happened that night. After all, anyone who tells you to drink too much to close the door is not right, David thought.

"But, I have a plan to take advantage of this situation."

"You mean?"

David frowned, he saw Nadine's face again seriously. He remembered their argument this morning. It must have something to do with the child.

"If she gets pregnant, I will ask her to marry you. The boy will be your son later. It's okay if I have to confess in front of our extended family if I'm the barren one. I will accept Liliana as my honey well."

"Don't start again, Nad," said David. Every time he discussed this, David always felt that he was the saddest man in the world. Disabled, yes he is a disabled man who will never be able to give offspring. There will be no woman who will be able to accept this lack.

Seeing her husband's expression, Nadine immediately stroked David's arm.

"But, not necessarily, Liliana was immediately pregnant. Let's wait another month, if she is pregnant, I hope you will marry her and assume that the child is yours. That's the only way to save our marriage. I don't want if I have to contain the seeds of another man, Dave. I love you so much, " Nadine said as she looked at David expectantly.

Seeing the look in Nadine's eyes so pitiful made David not bear it and feel guilty. Nadine must have been hurt to hear his request this morning. What kind of husband would have the heart to tell his wife to sleep with another man. Slowly, David sighed and kissed Nadine's forehead gently.

"Forgive me this morning, my dear. Me ...."

Nadine shook her head while putting her index finger on David's lips.

"Let's not discuss it anymore, I've forgotten our fight this morning," Nadine said with a smile.
