Helena told Alex to pack his clothes and kicked him out of the house. Alex was determined to get a divorce from Helena because there was nothing to hold on to in this relationship. It hurts more and more to be in this house.
"Get the hell out of my life, you nerd! I won't ask you to come back again." Helena pushed Alex's body.
Alex turned to Helena with a sharp look. He quickly packed up his clothes and put them in his suitcase. His mother-in-law and sister-in-law heard the commotion in the room. They both came and approached Helena.
"What's going on, Helena?" asked Mrs. Sandra.
"I kicked him out of here, Mom. We both agreed to divorce. There is no love between us. So, why keep it up?" Helena smiled and felt she had won the battle.
"It's good that you want a divorce from him, Hel. There are many other men waiting for you," replied a delighted Mrs. Sandra.
After divorcing Helena, he hoped his life would be much better. Right now, he was trapped in a toxic relationship, there was no love in it. What a fool he was to have agreed to marry Helena in the first place. He finished packing his clothes into his suitcase.
"Let's get out of here quickly. Don't come near my sister again." Cintya also pushed Alex's body.
He dragged his suitcase and left Helena's house. His relationship with Helena no longer exists. It's useless to maintain love if it's just being played with.
"Just wait for my revenge! You will feel the consequences."

It had been three years since Alex had returned to his old home. He also left his parents in this big house. And, finally, he decided to go back and hang out with his parents. The two-story house with white paint became the home of his fondest memories. At that time, he deliberately ran away from home because he wanted to be forcibly married off by a woman he did not know the origin of. He had never even met the woman before.
Not much has changed from this house, except that there are many guards standing in front of the gate and entrance of the house. Alex tried to get inside while carrying his suitcase.
"Excuse me, who are you? What is the need to come here at night?" asked the guard standing at the gate.
Alex immediately mentioned the name of his father, Ibas Abraham. The gatekeeper knew the name of the man mentioned earlier. Alex asked to see his father.
"Let me go inside to meet my mom and dad," Alex said.
Instead of complying, the gatekeepers laughed at him. They also told Alex to leave immediately. Their eyes were fixed from top to bottom.
"You, who look like a geek, have a father like Mr. Ibas? Don't you dream?"
"Nonsense! Go away!"
They did not believe that he was the biological son of Ibas Abraham and Julia Pamela. Alex would not give up. He didn't want to leave. He stomped on the suitcase and shouted his father's name. Hopefully, his parents would hear.
"Heh, why are you yelling like that?"
One of the guards guarding the gate came out and approached Alex. They were angry because they heard him screaming. Alex just wanted to see his parents, that's all.
"My son .... Are you home yet?"
All the guards who blocked him earlier immediately shut up. They didn't speak anymore. The adult man, named Ibas Abraham, approached him. Alex was hugged by his biological father.
"Finally, my son is home."
Mr. Ibas questioned him about his current appearance. Why is it so different from before?
"My son, what has happened to you? Why are you being geeky like this?" Mr. Ibas held both of Alex's shoulders.
Alex unbuttoned his shirt, which was buttoned up to the neckline. He adjusted his hair so that it didn't look so geeky anymore. His glasses were also broken.
Suddenly, Mrs. Pamela came out and met Alex. His parents were very happy to see him again tonight. They told him to come inside.
"Son, how are you? Mom and Dad miss you very much."
Alex felt very sorry for running away from home. However, now he would not leave his parents again and would stay here.
"Forgive Daddy and Mom for making you get married that time. Neither of us will insist anymore. You must not leave again." Mr. Ibas patted Alex's hand.
"Forgive me, Mom, Dad. I will never leave home again. I will stay here with you."
"Good then."

Alex's appearance today is certainly different from yesterday. He had been freed from Helena's family. Now, he was wearing a long shirt and his hair was neatly combed. Then he went out of the room and wanted to take a look at the outside courtyard.
After arriving at the courtyard, Alex saw the gatekeepers who had forbidden him to enter last night. He approached the two guards. They immediately shut up and bowed their heads. Alex still remembered their words.
"You still don't believe that I'm Mr. Ibas' son?" Alex asked with a smile.
"We're sorry, Young Master. We didn't know."
"I'll punish you," Alex said, teasing them.
Actually, he wasn't angry. He just wanted to play pranks on them. Hopefully, the two of them will become more obedient to him.
"We're ready to accept the punishment, whatever it is."
"That's good then. I will prepare a punishment for you two."
Alex was highly respected in this house because he was the son of Mr. Ibas Abraham. No one dared to confront or seek business with his biological father. His family was a wealthy one. It was just Alex who was too stupid to give up this luxury.
What would happen if Helena found out who he really was? Would she apologize to him for what she'd done? All that was on Alex's mind now was thinking of ways to get revenge on Helena's family, who had undermined his pride. He would not be silent anymore. This revenge will soon be realized.
'Watch out, Helena, I will never forgive you and your family!'
