Deka suddenly turned to Reyhan with furrowed brows, "You know him?"
Starla and Deka's views were both focused on Reyhan, both waiting for the man's answer.
"Yes, he was one of Mr. Jhon's friends, I had several times to bring Mr. Jhon to meet him," Reyhan replied straightforwardly.
Both Deka and Starla were shocked to hear that.
"It turns out Papa was friends with Mr Victor? I just found out," said Starla, who doesn't know about it.
"But they rarely meet, only occasionally. Mr. Jhon also once said that if he used to work for Mr. Victor, but since his wife and child died, he prefers to open his own business" Reyhan added later.
Deka pensive, a man as rich as Jhon Kotto ever worked with Victor? As what? It's impossible to just be an ordinary employee, right? Or did Jhon Kotto also become Victor's executioner like himself?
Seeing Deka daydreaming, Reyhan again raised the question, "So you said you were forced to be an executioner to return the favor because Mr Victor has taken care of and raised you? Where are your parents?"
The newly jolted Deka from her daydream was instantly moody, her facial expression turning full of sorrow, "My mother died giving birth to me, and my father ...."
Deka stopped her words as she recalled the fateful tragedy, suddenly the pain again invaded her heart.
"Bang Deka's father was killed by bad people when he was a child, Rey," continued Starla who already knew it.
Reyhan was silent, there was a feeling of pity mixed with concern at hearing this heartbreaking story of Deka's life.
"Yes, that dark night I will never forget. All my life I'll remember when they beat my father, and someone then stabbed my father in the chest with a sword until he died before my eyes." Deka was bowed as a drop of clear liquid managed to escape from his eye fertilizer, but he hurriedly removed it. Still recorded clearly in the memory of the flash of a sword that pierced the chest of the father.
Starla can also feel the sorrow that her lover felt, she knows how much Deka suffered all this time storing those bitter memories alone. Until he could not hold back the crying.
"But why did those people kill your father?" ask Reyhan curiously.
Deka shook his head, "I don't know."
"Have they been arrested by the police?" asked Reyhan again, he felt interested in the incident that befell the father of Deka.
Deka let out a long sigh, "Let's know, I never got any news about the people who killed my father. Though all this time I've been dying to meet them and get revenge."
"Didn't you remember their faces?" Reyhan asked again.
"I was hiding under the bed, I could only see their legs and the dragon's complexion at the base of the sword," beber Deka while clenching her hand held in fury as again the sword shadow flashed across her memories.
Reyhan was stunned when Deka mentioned the sword traits that were familiar to him.
"The sword with the dragon pattern at its base? Are you sure you saw that?" Reyhan.
"Yes, I'm sure" Deka said steadily.
"What's wrong, Rey? Why are you asking like that?" search Starla.
"I've seen it before" replied Reyhan.
Deka suddenly stood up and stared at Reyhan sharply, "Where?"

In her super-luxury room, Clarissa was sitting on the edge of the bed holding a glass of red wine, in a mess and wearing only a shabby nightgown.
Since returning home from Deka's house, she had only confined herself in a room. His mind is chaotic, his heart is hurt and sick to find the fact that the man he has loved for a long time turns out to love another woman who is not even at the level of himself.
Clarissa wanted to ask her father to persuade Deka to leave her, but she knew he would not.
Clarissa then smiled cunningly as she looked at the screen of her phone that was stamped with the line of words she had sent to Starla's phone earlier this afternoon. He accidentally reveals Deka's identity to Starla because he knows that Deka must have kept it a secret from her.
"Now you must be busy unpacking Deka's room, or maybe you've found it and run away in fear" Clarissa said cynically.
Some time ago while waiting in Deka, Clarissa secretly checked Deka's phone while the man was in the shower. He did know the password of Deka's cell phone lock was the man's date of birth. Clarissa then copied Starla's phone number to her cell phone contact, believing she would one day need the rival number.
After copying Starla's number, Clarissa pretended to sleep in Deka's room.
