Chapter 684 - Spending Time Together
The last time Lisa saw Bella was when the woman told her that she was pregnant with Rangga's child. After that, the two of them never met or contacted each other again.
Nobody knew since when the two of them became enemies. Lisa herself did not know what made Bella hate her and stabbed her in the back.
Hearing Bella's name being called made Kumala less hungry anymore. She stirred the fruit salad, mixing the mayonnaise and cheese together.
"Bella hasn't visited me for about 2 months. I have tried to contact her and ask her to visit, but she always said that she was too busy with her work."
Lisa cleared her throat, "Do you know anything about Bella and Rangga's relationship? They said they wanted to get married, right? Are they married?"
Lisa was once told by Rangga himself that the man was actually reluctant to marry Bella. At first, he didn't want to marry Bella, but thanks to Lisa's persuasion, the man agreed to Bella's stupid request. Although Bella's pregnancy turned out to be a lie.
Kumala took a deep breath and finally answered, "I don't know either. Whenever I asked Bella that, her answer was always ambiguous, leaving me confused. I am also curious about Bella's child, her stomach should have grown by now. I mean… I don't know, the baby should have been born. But until now, I have not received any news about her and the baby."
Lisa glanced at Kumala and continued to enjoy her homemade fruit salad. If she had to tell her the truth, she would say she didn't have the heart to do it. The woman couldn't bear to see the look of disappointment and shock that would surely adorn Kumala's face later.
The middle-aged woman must not know that Bella faked her pregnancy just to force Rangga to marry her.
Perhaps because Lisa was tired and didn't want to ruin the atmosphere at Kumala's house, the woman decided not to ask further. After all, Bella is old enough to know the consequences she will have to face later.
Suddenly, while Lisa and Kumala were enjoying the fruit salad in silence, Kumala slapped her own forehead.
"Oh my gosh, I forgot something!" Kumala turned her head and placed the small bowl on the table, "I wanted to show you the newly built garden around here! Let's go there right now."
Hearing that made Lisa gawk. She just got home but her mother wants to take her away again? Usually, Lisa would have whined so that Kumala would cancel her intention, but considering that this middle-aged woman was rarely visited by her children, it made Lisa feel uncomfortable.
Her mother must be excited that one of her children finally came to visit her.
"Alright, alright."
Lisa got up from the couch and put the fruit salad in the fridge. Meanwhile, Kumala closed the living room's window and turned on the house and terrace lights.
About 10 minutes later, Lisa and Kumala were walking out of the house again. This time the two of them took a different route. It turned out that the garden Kumala meant was outside the woman's housing complex. That meant they had to go further than before.
Lisa shook her head slowly as she listened to the gossip from her mother about her neighbor. But then a silver SUV was seen parked not far from them. Next to the luxury car stood someone wearing a leafy green coat, her hair was gelled so that it was neatly combed back.
Lisa kept walking while holding her mother's hand. But when she saw the middle-aged woman standing in front of the man, her footsteps immediately stopped.
Oh my God, what is that woman doing here!?
The middle-aged woman wore various kinds of jewelry that looked shiny, ranging from earrings, necklaces, bracelets to rings. Her wrinkled face was laced with light makeup with a striking lipstick color.
At first, Lisa hoped that the woman would not look at her or Kumala. But then, the nightmare happened! The middle-aged woman turned her head and accidentally looked into Lisa's eyes!
Lisa immediately turned around quickly, trying to hide her face, "Mom, don't go this way. Ah, let's just go home now! My stomach hurts!"
Even though Lisa was wearing work clothes and Kumala was wearing a plain t-shirt and knee-length shorts, Greta could recognize them. How could she possibly forget those two commoners?
Greta quickly walked over to them before they were out of sight. The woman stopped right in front of Lisa and Kumala while folding her arms in front of her chest.
"Wow... Well, well, I didn't expect to meet you here." Greta said coldly, the woman couldn't stop observing the clothes Kumala was wearing now.
Lisa and Oscar had been married for a while. Of course they had a marriage certificate and other things, but that didn't mean their parents had met formally.
In Lisa's mind, Greta would surely embarrass Kumala and Bella. That was why she didn't want to introduce them to Oscar's family, especially Greta.
But knowing that Greta could get whatever she wanted, especially since her power was so strong, Lisa should have known that the middle-aged woman would find out about her family.
"Hey, why the hell are you looking at my mother like that!?" Lisa no longer cares about manners when it comes to Greta, "Hurry up and apologize to my mother before I do something you might regret!"
Hearing that made Greta avert her eyes from Kumala. The corner of the middle-aged woman's lips lifted upwards to see Lisa. She had not seen a woman who used black magic to marry her beloved son in a long time!
"What do you mean? I was just observing the way your mother dressed. Turns out I've dirtied my own eyes. What a shame. Alright, what are you going to do? If you are a commoner, you will always remain a commoner!"
"Don't think I'm afraid of you, okay?"
Since Lisa was a child, she had never seen her mother humiliated like now. As a child, who wants their mother to be insulted? Of course nobody! Even Lisa herself was sure that Oscar would not accept it if someone dared to insult Greta.
If Kumala wasn't here and Lisa forgot that this impudent woman was Oscar's mother, she would have yanked Greta's hair!
"Hey!" Greta averted her eyes and looked at Kumala, "You should teach your daughter the right way."
