I Know You

“What do you want through that database?”

“Entahlah. So far, there is nothing important that I can get by knowing anything from those files. Just just know and enough.”

“Why do you have to search for the missing person from that palace if there is nothing important you can get?”

“Just just make sure where we all are. There may be a reason behind it. But I can't get to it.”

“Are you still in the search stage or have all been found?”

“Not us. I'm not involved. They...” I squinted my eyes. Them?

“Who do you mean by them? Wouldn't if you could access the database mean you were one of them?”

“I have a way. And I'm not one of them. And I think this talk is enough to get here. Is there anything I need to know again? Or why should I attend this meeting?” Yes there is. But I'm confused, how do I say it?

“First, I want to make sure of my guesses. It turns out to be true, I don't even have to ask. You admit it frankly. Second, I want to know how you can be here now. Shouldn't you be in that place? Where all the girls are gathered, as you said earlier.” I have not finished talking, he has squinted. I fell silent, trying to retrace the words I had spoken. Did I speak wrong?

“You asked me why I am here now as if knowing that I shouldn't be here right now. How can you know?” He asked calmly but with a sharp look in his eyes. Argha! I'm stuck in my own lot. If I told you I wanted to retrace my origins, it would be discovered that I broke the contract. I racked my brain, finding an excuse quickly so as not to subvert any suspicions about Jade.

“Not so I mean. My question leads to, why come to Indonesia. Paris is an ideal place to live. Moreover, it must be difficult to adapt to a new place. Learn a new culture and language. And blend in with people who have different habits with you.” Ah, congratulations. I hope he understands what I mean. He still looked at me question markingly, not directly answering. The suspicion is still there, but trying to be dismissed. His facial expression turned calm again.

“You should have read my profile mr.Lee. News about me can be accessed everywhere. And why I came to Indonesia is also in the news.” He really is a difficult person. The conversation was quite tiring, as I had to rack my brain to keep the conversation going until I found the answer I wanted.

“Of course, I know. You came here because of your boyfriend. Does that mean your lover is a local Indonesian?” Eyes twitching. He was still trying to seem calm, yet he was actually not calm. He didn't like my question.

“It looks like our conversation has been off the mark mr.Lee. Does this still have anything to do with the new employment contract I signed?”

“I know you from the beginning. You just want to make sure that I'm with the person you're looking for.” Ah, good. Even though I felt a little awkward because I could, he knew everything I was thinking. His gaze was sharp towards me. I wait for him to continue his words.

“Could be so what we think this is the same. Only, you know what risks will befall you if you dare to trace your origin?”

“So you came here with Lucian Warren.” I to the point. Eyes twitching. Still trying to stare at me with no expression. The calm that is made.

“I asked mr.Lee. Do you know the risks that you may face if you dare to dig this out?” I don't care about the empty threat. He told me he wasn't one of them. He just happened to have access to the organization's database.

“And it was Lucian Warren who helped you to settle here. He also opened access to the database so that you seem to know all..” He finally fell silent. That means I might be right. Well, so. So it's better to just shut up if it doesn't help. I grumble in my heart. He's just like all of them. It is smart to control the situation calmly and speak like a genius. I remember the first time I met Jade. We also engaged in a pretty silly conversation. Swirling around on less important topics just because we can follow that flow of conversation, no matter how insignificant.

“Lucian Warren, who is your father, and his age is almost 3 times that of you, is the girlfriend you are makud. He's hiding behind you. And make you work to meet your needs while on the run. Don't you think Chanel Travis made you empress? In a palace that no longer exists, a palace that only exists in your mind.” Her jaw hardens. Got you! The crushing blow of my words should be able to tear down his ego. Until he can say nothing more.

“And I suspect, he never dared to appear in public, because he is wanted, he is a fugitive. Aye right?” I think I'm a little haughty for making him fall silent. I raised my eyebrows and smiled insinuously. He's still quietly glued. His eyes began to turn red. Ah, she's smart, I told you, she's smart. He wanted to use tears to save himself from the threatening situation.

“What do you want?” He asked stifled. He replaced your word with yours. Huh! Good though. He's lost self-control. What do I want? I try to think hard. What exactly do I want? I just want to know one thing, that I'm not from his DNA. Had enough. What about my purpose in imprisoning him? I don't know. For now, that goal is broken. All I have in mind is Jade. Others can wait.

“Find me with him..”

“If you guys meet, what will you do?”

“I want to ask, am I the result of his DNA, are we brothers?”

“You don't have to meet him if you just want to know about it. I'll tell you..”.

“Do you know?”
