Chapter 106

• After undergoing leg surgery for the installation of a pin last night, Retno is now back in her hospital room. Since this morning, everything has felt different, especially when the doctor said that her pregnancy could not be maintained any longer. To save her life, the doctor had to perform a curettage procedure on her. The sadness Retno felt was greater than the sadness she felt when she had to divorce Handi. If she could turn back time, she would not have wanted to meet Handi at that place that ultimately led her to end up in the hospital bed.
• As Retno turned her head, she saw Rio struggling with his laptop. Retno knew that Rio was supposed to return to Jakarta today. His work could not be left unattended for too long. The fact that Rio was a new employee meant that he could not take a full leave like employees who had been working for more than a year.
• When Rio closed his laptop and walked over to her, Retno immediately smiled. In her heart, she was grateful to have Rio, who despite not being wealthy and financially stable, had determination and hard work that made Retno proud.
