Chapter 41 - 041 ( Misunderstanding )
After visiting all places where the credit card transaction takes place, and getting some information from all parties involved. Dirga finally discovered the fact that all the items paid for were actually intended for Mrs. Sofia herself, who was a regular customer there.
They even had time to tell how Mrs. Sofia repeatedly praised her granddaughter-in-law in front of everyone about her being very kind to treat her that day.
And Mrs. Sofia herself also said that she had several times offered her granddaughter-in-law to shop for some jewelry and clothes in their shop, but her granddaughter-in-law refused.
Didn't this prove even more clearly where all that money was actually being spent?
Then when Harry told Dirga to investigate directly the debt that Reihan had talked about, Dirga quickly got the information the next day.
"Miss Cleo has a number of debts to a mafia chief in the Pecitan area. The debt she received from his gambling uncle. And after her uncle died two years ago due to an overdose, Ms. Cleo was forced to bear all of her uncle's debt until recently," Dirga explained the information he managed to track down.
"Right on the day you gave her the money to do a prenuptial agreement, Miss Cleo made a cash withdrawal of 600 million from her account. She used the money to pay all of her debts without delay," Dirga explained.
"Then, Miss Cleo also did several swipes of her debit card at several shopping centers to buy several items. And after I asked the housekeeper, she told me that Miss Cleo had just brought all her groceries and went out yesterday afternoon and came back with nothing, "
"Looks like ... all the things she bought were intended for other people," Dirga explained, quite succinctly explaining all the information he got.
Harry listened to them all in silence.
So it's true that woman didn't use any of his money? And she purely used her own money to shop for everything her friend needs, as he just found out?
Then why didn't she say anything to him?
There was a slight glint in Harry's eyes whenever he thought about these mismatches.
If so why didn't she explain right away? Why did she has to make Harry go round and round and bother examining everything about her any further? Even though he was actually very lazy to take care of everything that he thought was not important.
So didn't telling everyone make things easier?
But when Harry thought back to how he rejected whatever the woman wanted to say. And how she was so determined to talk to him. Harry couldn't but help giving up all his displeasure.
Not Cleo who didn't want to explain. But it's Harry who didn't want to listen to her. That was a true fact.
As Reihan said, Harry was too estimated by his contract wife. Because of all the narrations and defenses that the woman might say, Harry immediately ignored her.
Then, what should he do now?
While rethinking what he would do with Cleo, Harry asked Dirga to contact Cleo and told her to get ready to attend dinner with his grandmother tonight.
Dirga agreed immediately.

No need to wait a long time for the day to turn into night. When Dirga contacted Cleo to get ready to accompany Harry to go to his grandmother's place for dinner together, Cleo with fast movements immediately hurried to clean up and get ready.
Since morning, Cleo has not done much work. She just lazing in the room after morning exercise in the park near the house. And because she was confused about what to do, Cleo then just relaxed in her room while reading a novel.
Until a telephone connection from Dirga immediately made her body lifted. And move freely here and there to carry out all the necessary protocols to visit her grandmother-in-law's house.
Although it has been three days since she received the lawsuit requiring her to compensate for a number of losses which somehow Cleo would not be willing to repay, Cleo hasn't seen Harry's nose since that day.
According to the information she got, Harry was on a solo business trip out of town. And that man would come back the next day at midnight when Cleo was fast asleep.
Until the next morning, it turned out that Harry had left early for the office before Cleo opened her eyes.
So, let alone discussing the lawsuit again, Cleo did not have time to greet the man who was like a walking ghost. Disappeared somewhere and came from nowhere.
Well .. although of course after that incident, Cleo became lazy to deal with him. But for the sake of the survival of her household for two years, Cleo couldn't help but make peace with him.
Maybe because Harry did not know exactly what the problem was, he had assumed nonsense. Hence, an explanation was indispensable in this regard. And that opportunity has now arrived, when Mrs. Sofia asked the two of them to come together.
