Alex The Heir

Alex's Decision

John is very angry to hear Alex's explanation, it turns out Jessie did a desperate action by mixing stimulants on the drink. Now he was beginning to understand, what the curly haired girl wanted. An incident out of his control when he saw Rudra also appeared after a long time did not appear. 

He was speechless at the thought of all this, using common sense after controlling a feeling of pent-up anger. Rudra's sudden arrival was very strange, let alone dare to show his nose after so many years. 

The atmosphere looked silent, Alex was also thinking the same thing. "I smell a conspiracy, Uncle." 

"You're right, I feel the same way." 

"Jessie in which room? Is there one of the guards guarding her?" alex asked starting to understand the situation. 

"Yes, I put two bodyguards in his room."

"Then, how's he doing right now?" insist Alex.

"You're still sympathetic to him after what happened?" John raised his eyebrows staring at Alex. 

Alex quickly shook his head, there was still a sense of being a big brother. But, that sense began to fade seeing the original behavior of Jessie. "I just wanted to teach him a lesson and find out what reason rounded his resolve, that's all." 

"Are you sure?" 

"I'm so sure."

The chatter is interrupted when a person wearing a white coat comes out, Alex approaches the doctor and asks about the grandfather's condition. 

"What's my grandfather's condition, Doc?" 

"The patient's condition is getting better, lucky to quickly take him to the hospital, if not only God knows." The doctor breathed a moment and nodded. "Excuse me." 

Alex went straight into the room to see his grandfather lying weakly on top of the gurney, tears dripping by themselves. He had no one else, and was unwilling if his grandfather was in a serious condition. 

"What's Rudra and Jessie's relationship, I must know." Alex squeezed the bedsheet before him, a sharp gaze stored overflowing anger. 

John held Alex's shoulder slowly. "What are you doing?" 

"Finding out Rudra and Jessie's relationship." 

"This matter is quite complicated, I hope you can solve it." 

"Don't think about it." Alex quickly exited the ward, walking confidently through the hospital corridor. 

The car drove at high speed, no matter the traffic light and broke through it, overtaking several vehicles blocking its way to the headquarters. This time she was very serious about knowing Rudra and Jessie's relationship. 

"Find information about Rudra and Jessie, what their relationship is or what the deal is. I want their details and let nothing be missed!" tell Alex to highlight assistant Jimmy sharply. 

"Good Don Alex." Assistant Jimmy comes out of the room on a mission to find out the truth that has not been revealed. 

The tired body was forced back to the hospital to visit his grandfather, but before there he decided to stop by to see the state of Jessie. Seeing the condition of the poor girl who suffered a broken bone due to fighting with Layla. 

Jessie's point of view unintentionally looked at her foster sister who was in the doorway, to be honest she was ashamed of being enveloped in hatred from the failure of the plan. Alex entered the room full of charisma, seeing the condition of the girl in front of him. 

"How are you?" ask Alex flat. 

"Stop being gentle with me, you already know my plan. So, no need to bother to see me here." Said Jessie who did not dare to look. 

Jessie was silent, feeling a little regret doing so, herself also a victim of Rudra and justifying all means to save the mother from the clutches of the crafty man. 

"What a fool, blinded by affection as a sister. I failed in educating you as a child, our memories you never considered, I failed to become a sister. A brother's love isn't that enough I give you? Even I always defend and be with you in joy or sorrow, does that mean nothing?" Alex immediately wiped away the nearly dripping tears, laughing as he looked at the clear globules on his index hand. "I've hardened my heart to hate you, but I can't. Why would you commit such a treason?" 

Jessie felt a tightness in her heart, moved by Alex's words but she chose to cry in silence. 

Brak! 

"Why did you stab me in the back, JESSIE replied!" Alex kicked the nightstand that was nearby, making the girl flinch in shock while shedding tears of regret. 

"Huh, this world is really strange, I have always been the subject of insults and insults of everyone. Because of treasure? You want treasure? Answer me, why are you quiet?"

"I-i__." Jessie's cry broke again, the treasure making her glare. "I had to do that." To be honest. 

"What is your relationship with Rudra?" Alex re-introduces Jessie after seeing the information provided by Jimmy's assistant, he just wants to hear directly. 

"He's my stepfather."

"It's this big you're hiding from me." 

"Me and Rudra intend to seize the Anderson family's treasure, he made me a pawn by threatening me and holding my real mother captive." Clearly Jessie lowered her face, revealing the truth Alex had just learned from her assistant. 

"If you'd told me I'd help you, this action of yours I can't forgive." 

"Sorry, I know you must be sick of seeing my face. The position of helplessness made me recklessly do that." 

"Because of your actions, I'm interviewing Layla." Alex passed away leaving the place, only a few steps he stopped and turned his head. "I'll set your mother free, then don't show your face in front of me." 

Again and again Jessie's cry broke, regret was useless when seeing the departure of a man who was always there in times of joy and sorrow. 

"Thank you." Sluggishly. 

Alex went back to see his grandfather, and in the room was John, both of whom were glaring at him to the center of attention. 

"Grandfather." Alex was about to hug David's body, but he refused. 

"Don't call myself Grandpa if you're not fair." 

"What does Grandpa mean?" 

"I've heard it from John, what you did to Layla shouldn't have happened. Don't repeat the same mistake with a different plot of my life, be a gentleman and take responsibility." 

"It's all my fault for dragging Layla and getting involved." John is sorry. 

"What does Uncle mean?" 

"Yes, Layla is not a random girl, she is a paid woman who spies on you and also watches Jessie's movements. From the beginning of meeting, I've guessed that your foster sister is not a good girl, now she's the victim." Obviously John. 

"I don't care what you think right now, but I'm asking that you be a gentleman by being responsible to him." David said firmly.

"I'm going to marry Layla." Breakup Alex.
