The Charm of the Duda
Chapter 78

This afternoon, Mama Alisha deliberately gathered all the family members.

Last night, Celina and herself managed to persuade Papa Adiguna to run the final operation.

The operation is called - said to have more than 90 percent failure, but did not rule out the possibility of making Papa Adiguna recover from his pain even though only a few percent.

Everyone gathered in the living room.

Celina, Vano, Dion and Keyla, as well as Mama Alisha and Papa Adiguna.

Naura and Leo were playing in the backyard with their caregivers so as not to interrupt the important conversation.

"As per Celina and your Mama's wishes, Papa is willing to conduct an operation abroad."

Said Papa Adiguna calmly and with dignity.

Papa Adiguna was really a wise leader and head of the family. He considers everyone who is there as his child regardless if 3 of them are not his flesh and blood.

Everyone was relieved by the decision that Papa Adiguna had taken.

They have high hopes for the recovery of their parents.

Although there was concern in everyone's heart, they were confident that the operation would go smoothly and successfully.

They believe that Papa Adiguna can recover from his illness and live longer.

"We're happy to hear Papa's decision, hopefully it's for the best and the operation goes well."

Vano sincerely said.

Although Papa Adiguna had beaten him up, but Vano was so respectful and admired the figure of his father-in-law who could be the company leader and head of the family well.

"So when will Papa leave the country.?"

Dion asked seriously. Presumably he is ready to take care of all the needs of Papa Adiguna while abroad.

Seeing the condition of Celina who was pregnant, Dion could not possibly rely on Vano to take care of her Papa-in-law's surgery.

And it's impossible to let Mama Alisha take care of it all by herself.

"Lusa," replied Papa quickly.

"Papa's been calling the hospital."

"I will accompany Papa," cried Celina.

While the Papa was struggling to fight his pain, of course as a child, Celina wanted to be by his side to encourage him.

"No, baby, you're here." Mama Alisha refused her daughter's request.

"Your stomach is big, Mama doesn't want you to get tired and it will result in your pregnancy."

"You can come before Papa in surgery."

"Don't worry, Mama will always accompany your Papa."

Say to my mom with a thin smile.

Celina looks objected because it is not allowed to accompany Papa Adiguna while abroad.

"But Mah,,"

Celina's words were immediately cut off by Vano while clasping her hands and giving a pleading look.

"Listen to Mama's words, I also disagree that you have accepted Papa since departure."

"I'll take you if Papa gets surgery."

"The health and safety of our children must also be considered."

Vano advised Celina in a soft, soft voice.

His words were not even heard clearly by everyone in the family room.

However, they could see the great care and love in Vano for Celina from the way she spoke and looked at Celina.

"All right, I'll be here."

Celina finally chooses to obey the orders of Mama Alisha and Vano.

"But I'll come before Papa's surgery and won't be home before Papa's condition is fine." Celina said on condition.

"By, the origin must be ensured that the condition of Papa's grandchildren is good - it's fine to travel far."

Papa Adiguna's words made Celina smile happily and immediately nodded quickly.

The conversation continues. Dion volunteered to accompany Papa Adiguna during his time there, but Papa Adiguna refused Dion's subtle goodwill due to the company's reasons currently held by Dion.

If Dion goes with him, the company could have a problem because no one leads for a long time.

While Vano is not likely to handle his company and the company Papa Adiguna at once.

Moreover, Vano must also focus on giving attention and free time to Celina who is pregnant.

Papa Adiguna decided to go alone with his wife and invited some workers in his house to come with them.

"Here's hearing Keyla applied for a job at the company." Papa Adiguna's words immediately made Dion stare seriously with a look of surprise.

"Has it been accepted.?" Ask Keyla.

"Already Pah," he answered softly.

"But another 1 week can only work because it replaces the position of employees who will resign." Evidently.

Papa Adiguna seemed to nod slowly.

"May you feel at home working there, and can give progress to the company with the expertise you have."

He said expectantly.

Papa Adiguna has heard all the stories about Keyla from Celina.

Celina also asks him for permission to hire Keyla as Dion's secretary without Dion's own knowledge.

Vano, who had taken care of everything, put Keyla in Papa Adiguna's company, and told Dion's secretary to quit his job. But the employee was immediately accommodated to the Vano company.

During the discussion about the work to be run by Keyla, Dion just kept quiet without commenting or asking.

Until the conversation was over and everyone chose to leave the living room, leaving Dion and Keyla who were still there.

"I'll take Leo home" Keyla said as she moved away from her seat.

"Who will look after Leo if you work.!" Dion's reprimanded voice stopped Keyla's steps.

"You've made a unilateral decision, without even asking me for permission."

There was a tone of annoyance from every remark made by Dion.

"Is the money I gave you still lacking.?" Cynical ask.

Keyla who was initially still able to calm down and received well every word that came out of Dion's mouth, immediately felt the pain of hearing Dion's piercing speech.

Keyla turned around, she sat back down but right across from Dion.

The two stared at each other with different feelings.

"I'm sorry I didn't ask you for permission first."

"I originally wanted to ask permission, but I thought it was funny to ask permission to work for someone else."

"I mean, we're just other people out of Leo's business."

Keyla gave an excuse quietly and gently.

He could have guessed this would happen because Dion did not know he was going to work.

Keyla did not intend to take a unilateral decision, she felt embarrassed after thinking about it every night.

He decided not to ask Dion for permission.

"But what you're doing has something to do with Leo."

"You're going to leave Leo with just a nanny in the apartment.? Can you guarantee Leo's safety in the hands of others.?"

Dion poked the question with an increasingly raised voice.

"In,," Tegur Keyla quietly.

"I don't want to live on your money."

"I'm not your responsibility. The money you give me will only be used for Leo's purposes."

"Especially if one day you get married, your wife will misunderstand that you are financing my life."

"I beg you to let me work. I'm not going to be out of my responsibilities as a mother."

"About Leo, you don't have to worry. Me and Leo will stay in this house for a while."

Keyla had been kind by talking carefully so as not to offend Dion. But still the handsome man looked annoyed.

"What else is this.?" Dion smiled wryly.

Her feelings for Keyla change when she learns why Keyla left her all this time and lives years abroad with her new husband.

"After being quiet looking for a job, you are also looking for a new shelter.?" Cynical ask.

"What story have you sold to this family until they let you live here.?"

Dion stared hard.

Look hatefully at the woman he thinks is good at taking advantage of the situation.

"Sell stories.?" Keyla asked with a sense of tightness that began to fill her chest.

"You don't want to tell me that I sold the body again.?" Keyla smiled bitterly.

"I have to see Leo." Keyla got up from her seat and walked quickly away from Dion.

He would not cry in front of Dion for fear of being cast.
