The truth is revealed through Reny's spirit at her family's tea plantation villa. Ten years prior, Revan worked as an engineer at the plantation. After the owner passed away, management fell to his friend, Bono, who plotted to seize the estate by marrying his reckless son, Guntur, to Reny. While Guntur obsessed over Reny, his sister Selvi was deeply in love with Revan. Consumed by jealousy because Revan only had eyes for Reny, Selvi manipulated a foreman named Degol to murder her rival. In the ensuing chaos, Degol shot both Reny and Guntur. The crime was covered up with a lie that the two had eloped together, leading a heartbroken Revan to eventually marry Selvi. Now, guided by Reny's restless spirit and the testimony of an old witness named Pak Amat, Revan finally exposes the dark conspiracy buried in the past.
