"If that's what you're worried about, take it easy and remember what I'm saying well, Jester. I'm not gonna ask you to date, you don't love me anymore, but that's okay. Let me love you" Camilla said before the elevator doors opened and Camilla left Jester in the corridor.
The afternoon before Afternoon, one of the famous private universities that looks lonely from activities because students and students are enjoying odd semester-end holidays. In the faculty of economics, there are several students and students who gathered in various places that are still campus areas, one of them on the sixth floor of building A looks like Jester is still standing staring at the elevator door that was just closed after Camilla entered and went down the most basic floor.
Camilla's attitude that suddenly changed to make Jester surprised, Camilla's speech a little to make Jester amazed. Unlike the usual Camilla, but Jester chose to ignore Camilla's remarks and chose to refocus on drawing up a plan for Selena's victory when following the second selection later.
After a long time Jester pensive, Jester began to move his legs to re-assemble with his friends who were waiting in front of the dean's office. On the way, Jester meets Naomi, Luke, Harry, Justin, Grece and Selena who are walking towards Jester, with a worried face, Naomi immediately runs towards Jester.
"Jess... What's wrong?" naomi asked, Jester's hand touched Naomi's head and stroked her gently. Jester understands that there is jealousy in Naomi's heart as she chases after Camilla.
"I tried to understand Camilla and it failed, it seemed like the only way to make Selena win the selection test" Jester replied calmly, Selena smiled cynically at Jester's reply.
"But since we've stuck to his plan, then I don't think it's easy. He must have prepared everything right" said Selena sounded without burden
Selena who understands Camilla's cunning nature tries to resuscitate her friends that everything that happens is carefully planned by Camilla, selena did it so that all her friends did not put too high expectations on her. Moreover, Selena self-conscious with her abilities far below Camilla is not an easy thing to beat him.
"Maybe you're right, but that doesn't mean Camilla will win easily. You have the potential, just a little polish it will all go well" said Justin chimed in on Selena's pessimism, for a moment they all fell silent.
"I'm still wondering something" chirped Justin with a face that looks so astonished looking at Naomi, feeling being stared at with a face that shows confusion makes Naomi follow confused staring back at Justin.
"What do you wonder about me Justin?" asked Naomi who was confused because Justin was looking at her with such an expression.
"You can cheat Jester, why get too far from Selena and Camilla?" justin asked in an astonished tone, Naomi was speechless with a flat face looking at Justin.
Suddenly Grece, Harry, especially Jester remembered that Naomi had held a cheat prepared by Jester so that Naomi could easily do the test and could win the selection with such a high score, they were all astonished at once why Naomi was still losing to Camilla. Luke, who had just learned about it, was also surprised and surprised how Naomi still failed while following the selection while a different attitude was shown by Selena who seemed ordinary with Justin's question, Selena seems to know the answer.
"Well, did you forget where every single Naomi material was?" ask Jester who followed confused, Luke, Harry, Grece and Selena look at Naomi at the same time. Naomi was still speechless a thousand languages with her flat facial expression, slowly Naomi's two hands covered her face.
"I was too afraid to open the cheat sheet, so I tried to remember all the material I learned earlier" a shy and sad sounding mixed into one Naomi answered Justin and Jester's question
"Well?!! so you didn't open it at all Naomi?!!" asked Grece sounding annoyed at Naomi's answer, Justin laughed amusedly and felt free Jester tried as soon as possible to make Naomi cheat.
"Great luck" Jester chirped, the speech made Naomi look at Jester growled and pinch Jester's stomach so strong and full of emotion.
Jester's voice was also heard by Jester's friends who made it difficult for them to hold back laughter. Naomi's beautiful figure and famous selebgram with millions of fans seemed to be his own advantage even though in academic terms not too prominent. Their laughter further embarrassed and upset Naomi towards Jester and made her vent her frustration at Jester right then and there.
"YESY!!! Naomi's sick!!" jester yelled in pain
"Basic Jester fool!! why don't you just give me that cheat paper?!!" luke's asking was full of emotion
"Where could I give it to you? you have no hope, what if you are my companion?! you're just gonna embarrass the campus!!" answer Jester with a clash as well
"I can give my position to Naomi if I'm the chosen one, you idiot!!" luke's timpal still sounds emotional
"Where can be so stupid!! if you resign, you will be chosen between Camilla and Selena!! Who was the originator of such a stupid idea?!!" jester asked emotionally, as Naomi, Harry, Justin, and Grece pointed at Luke.
"Huh? when did I say it?!" luke asked emotionally looking at his friends in turn.
"Since I reminded you that you're third three" Selena replied without burden
"I've guessed it's a stupid idea from this gorilla" Jester chirped with insinuations, a jotos fight between Jester and Luke happened in the sixth-floor campus corridor that afternoon.
Not long after the altercation between Jester and Luke, they all split up to go home - each still hopeful - please be anxious. However, the bond between them is very strong since the death of Luna, so that under their consciousness there is a strong desire to protect each other and make Camilla a common enemy.
Jester and Naomi immediately drove Ferrari 458 to return to the Gates residence, where the Gates residence is currently their destination. The journey, which took over an hour, was filled with chatter about Jester's plans to meet Arthur's challenge, Jester elaborating in detail on Naomi's plans.
In the hills far from the city center, a Ferrari 458 is speeding quite fast approaching a house with a high fence that follows the contours of the hills. The white house with a classic European architectural design makes the beauty of the big house look magnificent, the pillars of marble so tall and large add to the luxury and beauty that can even be seen from afar. From the fence to the courtyard of the house should be reached at least with a motorbike so as not to be too exhausted because so far the distance that must be traveled if on foot. The fence opened as the Ferrari 458 driven by the Jester got closer to the gate, all the guards wearing black tuxedos lowered their heads in salute as the Ferrari 458 Jester passed them. Until arriving at the court, Jester and Naomi got out of the car and immediately greeted one of the main doorkeepers of the house.
"Good night young master Jester" he said politely as he lowered his head
"Good night too" said Jester, giving the keys to his car, the guard immediately received the keys and took the Ferrari 458 to the garage.
Naomi immediately wrapped her hands around Jester's right arm and walked next to each other, knowing that Naomi was still frightened in the house made Jester worried. For a moment Jester sighed then looked at Naomi who was hiding the face on Jester's shoulder, noticing Jester staring made Naomi raise her head to return Jester's gaze.
"Still scared?" tanya Jester tries to calm Naomi down, only with a nod of Naomi's head to respond to Jester's words.
"You want to get out of here?" with a smile Jester asked Naomi again, but Naomi again - again just nodded her head in response to Jester's question.
"Patience, accompany me first" while stroking Naomi's head when Jester said it, Naomi smiled sweetly as Jester stroked her head gently. Not long to see William a little run down the stairs to get close to Jester, seeing William who was so in a hurry to make Jester and Naomi turn her eyes to look at William.
"Son, Exo Fashion and Style's financial statements are complete and it's no longer a company that suffered losses but rather a company that is sickly" said William once close to Jester
"Have it?" jester asked as if he could not believe William's words, with William's gesture inviting Jester to follow him.
The lack of news that makes Jester happy to be heard from William makes Jester feel today is a day that is less fortunate for him, he said,after the incident at the Jester campus, he hoped his grandfather's home would be news that made him a little calm. But the fact is quite the opposite, even just himself and Naomi entering the house has been greeted with news that again - again quite disturbing for Jester. This time Jester felt his brain had to be squeezed to the maximum with some events that happened to him. It was the figure of the real man implanted by William the father that made Jester so passionate about everything he faced.
"Come, let's talk about it" William asked and then came back a little run up the stairs again
Naomi swiftly removed her circle of hands from Jester's arm and immediately ran after William, in a room with a sofa and a table in the middle, Marrie was sitting on one of the sofas with an unsettled expression and Julius was standing close to the entrance. The arrival of Jester and Naomi in the room made Marrie feel relieved, with a look of eyes that looked so anxious that Marrie started a conversation even before Jester sat down.
"Your plan will not run smoothly, it is already in the stage of destruction but can still survive because of the very strong financial group Gates sustain this patient company" said Marrie
Sheet after sheet of reports about the Exo Fashion and Style company that Jester received from Marrie he noticed with detail and heart - heart. Seeing the report made Jester frown, the financial statements of the company under the auspices of Gates group were so bad and severe. The burden - the burden of debt and the salaries of the directors really drain the company's cash, as if the people involved in the company want to destroy the company as soon as possible.
"How can it happen like this?" jester asked in surprise as he turned his gaze to look at Julius
"Mr Andrews does not want Exo Fashion and Style to rival Arielle Group and this has been going on since twenty years ago until now, if only the Gates group let go of the company sooner maybe Gates group's losses wouldn't be that high" Julius replied sounding calm, Jester again frowned upon hearing Julius' answer.
"A loss of nearly a million dollars? is grandpa healthy?" asked Jester in a slightly pressing tone and with astonishment.
"It was worth it and could not be considered a loss" Julius replied with a slight smile on his lips, Julius' reply leaving Jester, William, Marrie and Naomi astonished.
"A million dollars was spent raising the only granddaughter in the Gates family, the great master Arthur actually loved Miss Sarah" Julius continued, after Julius made Jester, William, love him, Marrie and Naomi were shocked.
"But isn't papa pingin destroying Arielle?!" asked William in such a shocked tone
"Mr William. Here great master Arthur is testing who is more worthy between young master Jester or miss Sarah" Julius replied calmly, the answer leaving William speechless.
"I'm sorry Julius, but all this time great master Arthur thinks his children are failures. Even hoping against the sons of the masters Andrews and Philips could not because they were also incompetent to replace the great lord Arthur" Julius said with a slight bow before William.
"Then let Sarah win, I have no interest in.." Jester said, Julius cut.
"The loser will be destroyed, remember young master Jester... If the young master loses to Miss Sarah, it means that the young master will lose the young miss Scott" Julius reminded Jester, which made Jester immediately sigh and refocused on the challenge from his grandfather.
Naomi who was there could feel the tension that occurred, seeing Jester who returned excited after hearing Julius' speech made Naomi feel moved. The lovers he loves are trying so hard to fight for a relationship with him, their marriage that will happen in four months is like a death price that must not fail for Jester. Even seeing the seriousness of both parents Jester also makes Naomi moved and happy because it feels so valuable to Jester and his family.
"Papa, any word from Miss Jessica?" jester asked in a voice that sounded a little panicked
"He is waiting for news from us" William replied firmly
"Let's go see Jessica's lady now" Jester said as he stood up and was about to leave, Jester's panic felt deeply for Naomi, William and Marrie.
"I'm coming!" chirps Naomi, but Marrie pulls Naomi's hand to keep her there.
"Let Will and Jess leave, we'll wait for news from them" said Marrie
"But..." Naomi wants to refuse Marrie's orders, but Marrie's headband cuts off Naomi's words. With a heavy heart Naomi sat there and sat there with anxiety.
Jester and William walk to the courtyard of the house, where they meet Arthur who looks like he just arrived home. Accompanied by his two bodyguards, Arthur is seen staring at William and Jester alternately with a flat facial expression.
"Where are you guys going?" arthur asked in a pressing voice
"There's a bit of business" Jester replied briefly
"Young Gates, your time is not much because of the supply of money to sustain Exo I will stop immediately. Make good use of the rest of the time" said Arthur with a tone that sounded regret over Jester's attitude, for Arthur what Jester is doing is a secret and not serious to solve the challenge of Arthur.
"Grandfather, didn't I tell you, Arielle's problem leave it to me. Grandpa just relax in this house with grandpa's recliner, in one month's time there will be a big change" Jester's timp sounded relaxed without burden, William turned his eyes to look at Jester.
"really?" william asked in surprise, Jester turned to look at William with an annoyed face.
"Ooh yeah!! you're right! papa will lose this time to this little boy!" william excitedly said it while pointing at Arthur with his index finger, Jester patted his forehead looking at William's uncool behavior at all.
"I wait" said Arthur and left Jester and William in the courtyard of the house
Without thinking long Jester and William set foot into the garage of the house to choose a car and immediately leave the Gates residence to the main office of Arielle Corp., leaving the Gates, before leaving William first called Jessica to make an appointment at Jessica's office that night. Two hours passed, passing through a beautiful and sunny night trip. Jester and William stopped in front of Jessica and Sarah's office, as soon as they went down they were confronted by two security guards guarding the entrance.
"I'm sorry... What is the need?" ask one of the guards politely
"We have an appointment with Jessica's mistress, tell her William and Jester have arrived" replied William, hearing the two guards' names aloud and inviting William and Jester to head for the elevator.
"Master - sir has been awaited by the lady and Miss Arielle" said the security guard as he pressed the elevator button,
As soon as the elevator doors opened, Jester and William went inside to board the fifth floor where Jessica and Sarah were waiting for them, soon the door closed and opened again when William and Jester reached the fifth floor. There Sarah's snapping voice and Jessica's crying were so audible that even before Jester and William reached Jessica's office room, Jester and William's compact faces looked regretful having come that night.
"Family quarrels will be this awkward" jester chirped as he shook his head.
"It looks like this fight started when we made the appointment, Jessica's voice sounded good" William said
"There is no other choice" said Jester then stepped foot toward the source of the quarrel followed by William, in a room covered in the voices of Jessica and Sarah who quarreled so clearly heard. Without knocking on the door, Jester opened the door and made Jessica and Sarah turn to look at Jester and William.
"Hello. I know we're intruding but we don't have much time either" Jester said as the door opened and looked at Jessica and Sarah standing opposite each other.
"You want to take this company from me?! step over my corpse, Jester!!" sarah was so emotional
"Calm down, let's talk about this well" Jester replied in an audible voice trying to calm Sarah
"Nothing to explain anymore!! I don't want to be stepped on by anyone and don't want to be taken under by anyone even by the Gates family!!" and Sarah again
"Do you know who you really are?" ask William press Sarah made Sarah was silent for a while while staring at William.
"I... you know.. Then what? so what? in fact, I was dumped by the man I should have called father.in fact, he did not care about me. in fact, in fact, I struggled alone all this time... that's the obvious - obviously real.I'm an unexpected child. I struggled alone all this time to brush off all the bad things that were attached to me...." sarah answered with tears that began to wet her cheeks.
