Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO's Plaything

Kumala was relieved to hear Lisa\'s reply. Her heart was enveloped with a joy that was difficult to describe in words. "Rangga is a kind and loyal man. A man like him is caring for sure, and it\'s certain that your future is guaranteed with him, daughter. Don\'t let him go. If I find out that you failed Rangga, I will be the first person who will not forgive you!"

"Mom, I promise I\'ll be a good wife for Rangga," Lisa said, making a promise in front of her mother.

Hearing the promise from her eldest daughter made Kumala return to normal. All the anger and disappointment that had hit her heart because of what Lisa did immediately vanished!

Meanwhile in the living room, Bella was still sitting with a slightly trembling body and had difficulty getting up. She didn\'t even dare to look at Rangga who was sitting across from her. Her mind was now shrouded in memories of the past.

Bella still remembered clearly how Lisa always prevented her from becoming Rangga\'s lover for various reasons. But look what happened in front of her now? Her sister actually dated the man she loved so much! 

\'What a traitor! A shameless hypocrite!\' Bella thought.

As she gathered her courage, Bella took a deep breath then asked Rangga, "Brother, is it true that you and Lisa are going out? Are you two planning to get married in the future?"

Bella didn\'t dare to look at the man\'s handsome face. She just stared at the window blankly while resting on her chin.

Her goal to ask Rangga directly is that he wants to know the truth from him, even if she knows it will only make her sick. 

In the past, Bella and Rangga\'s relationship was very awkward. Bella repeatedly confessed her love to him, but the man with black curly hair always rejected her outright. 

Now that the man she loves will become her brother-in-law, how sick and twisted it was for her!

"Yes, your sister and I decided to go out in the end," Rangga said firmly without any doubts.

Bella smiled faintly, trying to cover her annoyance to hear that. She looked at Rangga with a sharp gaze full of jealousy then said, "Then is the child in my sister\'s belly yours too?"

She just found out that Lisa was pregnant since they hadn\'t seen each other because of work. Her purpose in asking Rangga is that she wants to convince herself whether Lisa and Rangga have been in a relationship long before she realized her feelings toward that man. That way, Bella will have a valid reason to hate her older sister.

Rangga was silent for a moment, unable to answer the question. He raised his head while scratching the nape of his neck and said, "My child or not, I promise to always take care of your sister because I really love her and always will."

His words were sincere and came from the bottom of his heart so that it was impossible for any woman who heard them not to be touched. But Bella wasn\'t, the sentence just now hurt her heart even more. As if it was a sharp dagger that stabbed right into her heart.

"So even if it\'s some bastard\'s child, you still want to be with Lisa? Are you sure you won\'t betray her in the future?" She asked sarcastically while crossing her arms and staring at Rangga with a condescending look.

"Bella, I really love your sister. You have to understand my feelings," Rangga replied, looking a bit sad.

Bella then looked at him with one eyebrow raised, her eyes staring at Rangga closely. "I don\'t understand it, am I no better than Lisa? How come you don\'t understand that I really love you? I\'m so much better than Lisa! Look! I\'m good at work, I\'m much prettier and taller than her, but why did you prefer her?"

"You may be better than your sister, but I only love Lisa," Rangga said without hesitation. His lips tucked, his voice cold.

Bella\'s expression immediately turned cold and stiff as she gave Rangga a cynical smile. All this time, she did not expect that the man she admired and loved with all her heart would never love her back. 

How brokenhearted she is.

The tip of her lips was put in a cold, cynical smile. She turned her gaze to the window and stared out blankly.

She was so happy when she found out that she got accepted into one of Rangga\'s companies. Even though she knew that her chance to be with him was very small, working in his company was enough to make her feel happy.

But her happiness shattered into pieces now. Seeing Lisa and Rangga as lovers only fosters her jealousy and hatred. It made her feel like taking revenge, and the only way to do it was to snatch Rangga away from Lisa.

"Brother Rangga, do you realize that Lisa has been divorced twice? She is a young widow! You are young, handsome, rich, have high social status and everything. There\'re many better choices than Lisa out there! Not to mention that she is pregnant with another man\'s child, how come you\'re fine with that!?" Bella yelled.

"So what? I already really love her, regardless of her situation. I don\'t care even if she is a young widow or a former criminal, I will still love her. Bella, please listen to me. You are still young and you have potential, so don\'t waste your chance to chase after something you will never get," Rangga advised seriously.

Hearing that unsolicited advice made Bella feel even more irritated. She began to lose her mind to think clearly. Her hatred with Lisa only deepened.

After the two of them talked, Kumala and Lisa came back to the living room. Kumala came with a beaming face and said, "Rangga, auntie really likes your gift! But I think it\'s too expensive for me. Next time, you don\'t have to bother buying expensive things for auntie, okay?!"

"Auntie, this is nothing," the man smiled at Kumala as if nothing had happened between him and Bella.

But Lisa can feel a really strange aura in the living room. That aura felt awkward and cold. It seems like something had happened between Rangga and Bella when she and Kumala were away.

Neither Rangga nor Bella looked nor showed a friendly gesture at each other.

"You guys talk first, I want to cook dinner. Don\'t you rush home, okay? I miss you so eat here!" Kumala said then hurried to the kitchen.

The atmosphere that enveloped the living room began to feel cold and tense, as if the house was uninhabited. Lisa then took her seat on the living room sofa while staring at Rangga. The man was seen sitting silently with his legs crossed. And when she turned her gaze to look at Bella, she found her sister was sullen.

Lisa was speechless, but she sat still and hoped that the two of them would speak.
