Chapter 83 – Tense Atmosphere.
Mrs. Anggi and Michael's father returned to light when they heard an offer from Clara's father.
After that, Michael's father turned to Michael and said, "Michael, right now you apologize to Clara and tell her you will divorce this woman and resume your engagement!".
Michael took a breath while fixing his seat again, after that he glanced at Clara's father with a hateful look.
"Dad, he doesn't deserve to be your best friend, let alone your friend!".
Everyone was shocked to hear Michael's words.
"Presumptuous you Michael, I didn't raise you to be such an impolite child". Michael's father was furious because he was embarrassed.
"Michael, what do you mean by saying I don't deserve to be your father's best friend?". Clara's father asked angrily.
Instantly Michael smirked at Clara's father as he said, "Because you are a wolf in sheep's clothing, you are the one who planned to kidnap Zian, you even did it once again when Zian was at my house!".
Hearing Michael's words, Clara's father turned pale.
"What do you mean?". Asked Mrs. Angie, confused.
"Auntie… Clara's father was the one behind Zian's kidnapping a year ago, he was also the one who had almost lost the trust of W Group by many people at that time". The word Larry represents Michael.
Once again everyone was shocked, they couldn't believe what Larry said because it was impossible.
"Is that true?". Asked Michael's father breathlessly.
"That's Slander, how could I possibly kidnap a child who is still 6 years old?". Clara's father tries to defend himself.
"Shopia, you're such an asshole! Michael, what do you see in a seductive woman like Sophia who's no match for me, just because Sophia you slandered my father". Clara shouted who was getting annoyed seeing her father being slandered.
Sophia did not pay attention to what Clara said, she instead tightened her grip on Michael's hand while looking down.
"Sir… You'd better confess your crime!". Larry said while looking cynically at Clara's father.
"You have no right to speak here, because you have never been recognized by the Walton family! I am surprised at you, how dare you appear here. Even though your grandparents did not accept you". Clara's father's words made Larry lose his cool.
"Because you have defamed me, then I will sue you, right now I will call the police so that you are quickly deported to London". Clara's father said again as he took his cell phone.
"No need to worry, because the police will be here soon." Michael said casually.
Clara's father tries to maintain his composure, as long as there is no evidence then he will be safe.
Michael's father and mother are still confused about whom to believe, they can only wait.
Moments later the police came with an arrest warrant for Clara's father.
"Good evening Mr. Walton! We from the downtown police have an arrest warrant for Mr. Aron on charges of kidnapping and fraud and defamation." Obviously the police.
"Wait! You can't do it, I can sue you with defamation charges!".
"Mr Aron, you still don't admit it?". Michael's gaze became very savage when he heard Mr. Aron who still doesn't want to admit his mistake.
"How can I admit something I didn't do at all?" Mr. Aron continued to defend himself because he believed he had destroyed all the evidence and erased his tracks, so he wouldn't want to admit it.
Michael glanced at Larry then gave him the code. Larry nodded and then played a video, and instantly Mr. Aron and 3 of his men were torturing Zian.
Flakk…
Mr. Aron slapped Zian because he couldn't calm down and kept crying. Fresh blood was visible from the corner of Zian's lips.
At that point Larry immediately turned off the screen even though there were other things in the video.
After the tape finished playing, Michael's father's eyes went wild, and his expression darkened, he clenched his fists and hit Mr. Aron because Zian is his favorite grandson.
"You bastard! What kind of friend are you? You're not human, you're a monster, how could you torture my young grandson. Because of you my grandson mentally disturbed, not only that you also deceived me you bastard". Michael's father shouted furiously.
Michael's father continued to beat Mr. Aron mercilessly. Immediately Clara and her family were hysterical.
Michael and the police immediately separated them.
"Already father, he will rot in prison, not only that his company will soon go bankrupt". Michael said, trying to calm his father down.
"Let go of me! I will kill this person". Michael's father is getting crazy and does not comply with Michael's request.
"Don't get your hands dirty, dad!" Michael continued to try to calm his father down while glaring at Mrs. Aron.
"You not only deceived your own best friend but also made a child feel insecure living in this world, you will rot in prison and I assure you of that!" Michael said firmly.
Mrs. Aron was frightened to see Michael's horrible gaze. He knew Michael wasn't playing with his words.
Michael's father glanced at Larry with a confused look. He then asked, "What does Michael mean by saying that threat?".
Larry took a deep breath, then he opened his mouth and explained everything.
"When Zian was staying at Michael's house, an intruder broke into Zian's room while we were having a party at my house, there was a hit on Zian's back and he was hysterical and went crazy that night, luckily there was Sophia there who calmed him down, and after I investigated, it was his doing".
Hearing the story from Larry, Michael's father's heart aches and he is getting angry.
"What? Poor Zian being tortured again?". Said Mr. Robert with a surprised expression. Immediately Mr. Robert hit Mr. Aron.
"Ahhh…". Mr. Aron groaned in pain.
"It's for my family that you tortured". Shouted Mr. Robert after giving Mr. Aron.
Clara and her mother were getting hysterical to see her father battered. The police immediately arrested Mr. Aron from Michael's father and grandfather's tantrum.
Just then, suddenly Mrs. Anggi fainted because she remembered how she found Zian who was covered in blood and battered at that time.
Soon after that, Sophia and Larry took her to the room while Michael tried to stop his father.
"Sir, please take this person away immediately!" Michael said while holding his father.
"Alright, then we'll take him away!" After that the police immediately took Mr. Aron out by handcuffing him first.
"Michael, please don't do this to my father! He was wrong but he is your future father-in-law, soon we will be engaged!". Clara begged Michael like crazy.
"You think I'll let you get engaged to my precious child? That will never happen, this engagement is off". Michael's father's voice echoed throughout the room.
Michael's father hadn't realized that his wife had passed out so he was still with his emotions.
"Now all of you leave my house! I don't want to see your family set foot in my house again!". Michael's father said again with his face red with anger.
With tears in her eyes Clara and her mother left Michael's house followed by the rest of her family.
After Michael's father's emotions subsided, he immediately ran to the room looking for his wife when he was told about his wife who had fainted.
In the room he found his wife lying, at that moment his heart was broken, he stepped slowly to approach his wife.
"My dear, why is your face so pale? Oh… Please wake up! Don't scare me!". Michael's father's voice was hoarse followed by tears streaming down his cheeks.
Michael knew how his father loved his mother so much that his father felt mad when his mother was not by his side.
Meanwhile, Sophia was devastated to see her mother-in-law in this state. She couldn't hold back her tears and cried in Michael's arms because she remembered how Zian had to endure so much suffering.
"Honey, I feel sorry for Zian. How can he live in fear, and pressure, he is still small but mentally disturbed". Sophia continues to cry, holding her heartache for Zian.
Seeing Sophia cry, Michael felt his world collapse instantly, he also felt heartbroken by Zian's condition, especially when he remembered his sister who was almost crazy for fear of losing Zian.
Michael didn't say anything, he just gave a warm hug while patting her shoulder lightly.
