The intense exercise for several months that Johan gave Diamonds yielded satisfactory results. As a result, Diamond could compensate Johan in three or four moves in the fight. This result is good enough. Johan's skills are excellent. Moreover, his physical endurance and muscle strength were excellent. Terry alone would only survive two moves and be defeated easily by Johan.
"Justin..." The diamond grimaced as Johan applied the ointment on the bruises on his right arm after they finished the exercise.
"I'm sorry I was too hard." Johan immediately apologizes after blowing on the diamond wound that was accidentally made by him. While martial arts training this kind of accident is inevitable.
Diamond's skill was quite good and made Johan unknowingly not limit his strength to attack Diamond to cause Diamond's hand to be bruised due to his movements.
"It's okay. I'm used to it."
"Although I know that sentence is a subtle satire for me, but I am fine with taking it as the highest compliment to me." Johan put back the ointment he had just used in the medicine box.
"Why are you so sensitive today? I really don't insinuate. I'm used to this kind of pain. And I think it's good for me. Do you remember how I cried when I got hurt like this?"
Johan remembers it. It was at the beginning of their training. Diamonds are only small, very small. But the girl cried as she applied a disinfectant to clean her wound. Compared to back then, Diamond's tolerance for pain was indeed much better. The Diamond body is also gradually fit and healthy. Being much stronger than girls of her age.
"It makes me calmer if I'm no longer by your side." Johan nodded. He recalled his conversation with Norman a few days ago. It seems like he can't buy any longer given the current state of affairs at the company. Not to mention Reina who was still reluctant to go home even to tell Norman her whereabouts. Reina only allowed him to tell Norman that he was fine.
"What do you mean, brother?" Diamonds realized something was wrong. Let alone the expression of Johan who looked anxious the past few days.
Johan sighed. His girlfriend is smart. So he could not forever hide this from her. Moreover, he and Diamond now already have a relationship. So if he really leaves, Diamond has the right to know why. Johan held the Diamond hand in his hand and looked at the Diamond seriously.
Diamonds rarely see Johan like this. Suddenly he felt worried and all sorts of negative thoughts appeared in his brain. This is the first time Diamond has fallen in love. It was also the first time he had given complete trust to others. He does not want to be disappointed. He looked at Johan anxiously.
"Lian.I think you should know now." Diamonds are silent. She was afraid to predict what Johan would say to her.
"My background wasn't easy. I'm just a kid who's not recognized in the family for a reason." Diamond looked at Johan in surprise. He did not expect Johan would mention if he was an illegitimate child.
"My father ran away from home and was married to my mother on her run. However they are found and papa is forced to marry a fiancee already chosen by grandfather for a business marriage." Johan continued to avoid Diamond thinking that he was an illegitimate child. As a man, especially Diamond lover, of course he does not want to be misunderstood and looked down upon.
"Papa's new wife doesn't just let go of a pregnant mama. She threatened him and made mama give birth in distress so that she had severe bleeding and eventually died. Since then I've been brought home by papa and given his name." The diamond looked at the sad Johan. He could feel Johan's hand tighten.
Diamonds have never seen Johan's fragile side all this time. As he looked at it, he couldn't help but feel he wanted to remove any burden Johan felt. The diamond couldn't help but hug Johan. And whispered to him confidently.
"I never cared about Johan's background. All I know is I love you, Johan. And all I care about is that Brother Johan loves me too. That's enough." Johan smiled at the Diamond confession. They rarely indulge in love before, they prefer to make it happen from treating one another well and lovingly. Only Johan would occasionally give her a love speech accompanied by a gentle kiss on the forehead. And this is the first time Diamond has taken the initiative.
"Lian..are you sure of our love?" Johan asked suddenly which made the Diamond freeze. He pushed Johan away and looked at JOHAN in confusion.
"Do you want to wait for me?" Said Johan again.
"What do you mean, brother?"
Johan breathed a heavy sigh. "Papa's condition is not good at the moment and asks me to come back. Papa asked me to be the successor to the company."
"Wouldn't this be dangerous?" Diamonds understand this well. In certain societies, competition among successors can be fierce. Not just between siblings of different mothers, siblings can sometimes even be the more violent ones.
"Do you believe me?" Johan raised Diamond's hand and placed it on his chest. Diamond looked Johan in the eyes and nodded without hesitation. But.... A diamond cannot simply let go of the knot in his heart.
"Can I take me too?" Johan looked at the girl in front of him who had determination in his eyes.
"Not for now." Johan shook his head without hesitation.
"Why? Am I not worthy?" Diamonds are a little disappointed.
"No. Of course it wasn't. You know if it's not so."
"Then what?"
"The problem is not as simple as you might think. Right now I don't have the strength to protect you. It would be best if no one knew our relationship for now."
"You want us to break up?" Johan nodded. Diamond did not expect Johan would agree to this question. Without being able to hold it, his tears flowed as he began to sob.
"How evil are you, brother!" Diamond Saying.
"Lian, listen to my explanation." Johan frantically held onto Diamond's shoulder and intended to pull Diamond into his arms. But Diamond brushed his hand away in disappointment.
"If you knew this would happen, why would you make me fall in love with you? What's wrong with you, brother? Do you want to repay me for forcing you to be with Clara?" Saying Diamonds are angry.
"No. It's not like that. I really love you. I also didn't expect the matter to be like this. It's all for your own good. Lian. I love you so much. You have to believe that."
"If you really love me and believe in our love, Brother Johan will never have the thought to break this relationship." Diamonds with low voice. He stood up while wiping his tears. "I'm disappointed Johan. If you want to break up, just break up." Diamond said before he turned around and ran outside the GYM room with tears running back down his cheeks.
Johan looked at the Diamond that disappeared behind the door without knowing what he had to do to explain everything. At the moment he really has no other solution to keep Diamonds from harm in the future. Alisya is not easy to overcome. The woman was petty and had many devious plans. In addition, Alisya has the power and ability to do anything for the sake of his wish to be achieved. He did not want to bet on the safety of the Diamond.
"Are you sure you think this is the best?" Sean slowly came in. His gaze swept over the seated young man with his head bowed on the floor. He overhears Johan and Diamond talk earlier. He is also surprised to hear Johan's decision to decide on the Diamond.
"Yes sir. Right now things are not very good. Especially if later I really become the successor of the company, it will make the woman crazy and will do things that endanger Diamond. The woman has no fear and I'm sure she won't hesitate to target Diamond even though she knows that Diamond is the master's daughter." Johan replied after some time.
Sean nodded. He understood what Johan was afraid of right now. If he was in Johan's position, maybe he would have chosen the same.
