DOR!!! the sound of a gun echoed in the room, a shot Arthur aimed at the wall to his right making everything quiet.
The sound of a gun explosion is heard amid the commotion between Jester, William and Marrie who are trying to block eight men with sunglasses tuxedos to bring Naomi to her place of confinement, while Naomi just kept staring at Arthur without any fear. Even the sound of the gun being pulled by Arthur did not thrill Naomi, unlike William, Jester and Marrie who were silent in shock at the sound of the gun.
"Grandfather!! this is already too much!!!" jester looked at Arthur
Jester's anger peaked because seeing Naomi who had to be brought by eight men berksedo, Jester felt Arthur treated Naomi with unkindness and excessive. Jester is also angry at himself who is unable to do anything to release Naomi from the captivity done by the grandfather.
"You've given me a chance but you forced me to do this, young Gates!!" snapped Arthur to Jester.
"Jess! stopit!! let him take me!!" timpal Naomi firmly
"Don't joke at a time like this, Naomi!!" snapping Jester on Naomi
"You know Jess... I used to play the king's daughter who was kidnapped by an evil king and I waited for a prince to save me and I always dreamed it would happen to me someday...." naomi said in a soft and calm voice, Naomi suddenly laughed while looking at Jester who was behind her.
"I didn't expect my childhood dream to happen to me today. I'm waiting for you to save me, my prince.." with a smile Naomi seemed to force when she said it, The stunned Jester looked at Naomi's face then slowly lowered his head and clenched both hands tightly.
"I understand. You have tried to die - die for the strong and not afraid..Naomi, wait for me. I will save you soon!" somewhat stupefied by the emotion when Jester said it, the eight men who had been blocked by William, Marrie and Jester walked past the three of them and brought Naomi near Arthur.
As Jester's spirit burns with Naomi's sacrifice, Jester wants to clear up his grandfather's challenge and win it and free Naomi.
"Good fight young Gates" arthur said standing up and then walking in followed by Julius and eight men who sat down to escort Naomi to follow Julius and Arthur to get out of the room through the door behind Arthur's throne seat
"Naomi!!!" jester shouted at that moment and made Naomi stop walking and turned to look at Jester.
"All will be well, we will be together again soon.whether you are in any part of the earth, I will definitely find you. so keep smiling and don't waste your tears because it will be in vain.wait for me yes" Jester said in a soft-sounding voice, jester's big smile at that moment made Naomi unable to hold back her tears.
"I'm waiting for you!! you promised!!" naomi said with a shout to make an echo in the room, Jester gave his thumbs up and still smiled widely. Soon Arthur, Julius, Naomi and the eight men left the courtroom that night.
The ludicrous romance drama of two young people for Arthur must be witnessed, there is a sense of disappointment in Arthur when the grandson he hopes to be weak when faced with a woman he loves. Arthur does not want Jester to follow in the footsteps of William and Andrews who are weak in business affairs because of the woman they love. Because for Arthur in running a business should not bring personal affairs and should focus entirely on business affairs.
A bright night in a luxurious house in a far from the city center, evident, houses with a towering fence follow the contours of the hills guarded by many sturdy men using black tuxedos and sunglasses around the house area. At the house that became the Gates family residence, Jester, William, and Marrie were standing in one of the rooms in the house, their faces looked so sad with what had just happened tonight.
"Will. whatever your plan and Jess, you need to get it done quickly. Don't waste any more time" said Marrie breaking the silence between them, William looked at Marrie with a serious face.
The natural anxiety of a Marrie against Naomi remembers she once felt Arthur's cruelty when Arthur learned William left his extended family for her sake. Marrie doesn't want anything bad to happen to Naomi.
"It all takes time, it can't just be finished in a matter of days" William responded to Marrie's words
"You two should think of something!! don't leave Naomi alone for too long!! kasian him.." not yet finished Marrie said, William cut.
"I know and I don't want to make Miss Naomi wait too long but how else? you know selling stocks won't be as easy as it is." William said when it was cut by Jester.
"There's a way, we're going to speed up his plan" Jester's words let William and Marrie turn his eyes to look at Jester, slowly turning his body around to look at William and Marrie.
"We will do the fishing once again" said Jester confidently
"How's the son?" ask William curiously
"I want to meet my mom and dad, can you make a pact to meet them today?" jester asked William and Marrie, and Marrie and William quickly took their phones and operated them.
"Can!" William and Marrie say it simultaneously
"Well, let's meet them now" said Jester as he walked to the courtyard of the house followed by William and Marrie
Jester's optimism brings a breath of fresh air and passion to William and Marrie, all their heart to strive for the best for Jester. William and Marrie also have the same hope as Jester, they want to end the challenge from Arthur in order to return to life calmly without being overshadowed by Arthur.
On the other side of the house, Naomi walks in front of eight black-clothed men following Julius to a room on the third floor of the house. At the end of the corridor was a large door, Julius opened the door and inside was a very luxurious room with a bathroom, mini kitchen, a television with a home theater, and a small kitchen, and it doesn't look like a room to hold someone.
"Here is young Miss Scott going to be held captive" Julius chirped with a slight sound of laughter.
"Well... uh...here?" ask Naomi as she enters the room looking at the left right
Not as Naomi imagined, not in a sealed room and no access whatsoever but even in a luxurious room with complete facilities. Naomi's fear and anxiety is a little lost and there is a wonder also a question, is it true that an Arthur who is known to be cruel and also an enemy of the Scott family treats him well.
"Yes, here, this is actually the room that was used by the Gates family's guest of honor" Julius replied, then Naomi turned to look at Julius who was still standing at the door.
"Is there really a guest of honor in this tightly shut house?" naomi asked in surprise, Julius sighed when he heard Naomi's question.
"This family was not as closed as this young Miss Gates" Julius replied, they were silent and stared at each other for a moment.
"What does this have to do with GAS?" naomi asked Julius, hearing Naomi's question made Julius look so surprised.
"Am I right?" naomi asked again as if forcing Julius to tell her the truth.
"Young Miss Scott knows where GAS is coming from?" ask Julius
"A friend of mine told me everything about GAS, about the January 10 deadly plane crash, and about the toll road accident involving Scott's extended family." Naomi replied.
"That means Julius doesn't need to tell her anymore, young Miss Scott has heard it from a young lady's friend" Julius concluded calmly, Naomi looking at Julius with a sad look on her face.
"Julius retreats in.." not yet finished Julius says, Naomi cuts.
"My friend said that if there was any strangeness, Arielle's family and Scott's family experienced the incident after a sign that they would betray the Gates family. Arthur also said that the one who killed these two families was him, tell me the truth Julius!" timpal Naomi was heard forcing Julius to tell her everything, Julius sighed at that moment.
Naomi's words make Julius curious to explore the extent to which Naomi knows the truth about GAS, Julius realized Naomi would want to know the truth because the incident involved his extended family. Making Scott's name left only Evans and Naomi alone.
Before beginning the story, Julius asks the eight men behind Julius to wait outside the room. Slowly Julius closed the door and walked up to Naomi, with a sorrowful look as if Julius was ready to tell her what really happened between these three families. The relationship that once seemed to want to rule the world together, ended with the loss of two families in the hands of the Gates family,
"Young Miss Scott, how far do you know about Scott and Arielle's family?" julius asked trying to ascertain what - whatever Naomi knew, had a moment to think but Naomi finally shook her head several times.
"Not much, all I know is that Scott now has me and dad left. Then about Arielle, I only know Jessica and Sarah's mistress" Naomi replied
"The Scott family is left with you and Mr. Evans, and then Arielle is not only Jessica and Sarah but also me" Julius's timpan and Julius' words surprised Naomi
Julius who admits he is an Arielle makes Naomi surprised also astonished, because Naomi knows between Arthur and Arielle feud even Arthur finish off the family Arielle with a very cruel.
"Then why are you still on Arthur's side?! why didn't you rebel?! don't you love your own family?!!" naomi asked in a tone that sounded surprised and seemed to not believe if Julius had the Arielle surname.
"It all started forty years ago, when Arthur and I were teenagers. But among other teenagers, Arthur seemed to be born for business. At that time there were only two rulers in this country, Arielle and Scott, who had a great feud with each other and dropped each other, while the Gates family was just a small family that had nothing" as Julius begins his story, Naomi is shocked to hear that the Gates family is not a wealthy family.
"Why is Gates so dominant now? what did Jester's grandfather do?" ask Naomi curiously
"As I said earlier, Arthur was born to do business. Young Arthur managed to convince my father Morgan Arielle and your grandfather Anthony Scott to unite three families and dominate the entire business in the country, something that a twenty-year-old teenager could not possibly do but Arthur could do. Leading the great men of his time, aren't you amazed by such a man?" julius asked with a small smile that was visible from his smile line
"I don't know what to answer.he looks so cruel in my eyes and I don't see him as a great person" Naomi replied to Julius' question, with a small laugh Julius responded to Naomi's reply.
"PT GAS taken from the front letters of each family is a great proof of young Arthur, Gates led Arielle and Scott who were then filled by experienced people. All happy, all happy and all satisfied until the tragedy in which Arthur must immediately remove the Arielle family from this earth for a long time" Julius continues the story but this time his smile line disappears
"What tragedy?" ask Naomi curiously
"My father Morgan Arielle wanted to kill Arthur Gates so that my father could lead PT GAS" Julius replied in a voice that sounded angry and full of emotion implied from the words, he said, Naomi was surprised by Julius' response.
"What?! butwhy? and why do you know? is it not a slander or.." Not yet finished Naomi said, Julius cut.
"I caught them plotting something to kill Arthur" Julius's timpal said without a doubt, Julius' words that did not imply the slightest bit of hesitation to leave Naomi speechless.
"Me and Arthur were childhood friends from our elementary school until we went to college, I considered him more than just a friend and even a friend. There are so many things that I trust him and he trusts me so much, we are inseparable. So when Arthur had the idea to do a joint venture, I was so happy that my bond with Arthur was going to get closer" Julius continued
"Why did you have to kill Arthur just to take the chair of president director at PT GAS?" naomi still can't believe Julius' story.
"Because Arthur's closeness to the Scott family made the Arielle family feel disturbed, not to mention some projects - strategic projects won by the Scott family and that made the Arielle family not like. My father Morgan wanted to get rid of Arthur and Scott at once with his assassination plans and master everything for Arielle's own family, my father's ambition made me not think long to defect and save Arthur from my father's plans" answer Julius
"If compared to Arthur, my greedy father looks so disgusting in my eyes, when the garbage controls the power of PT GAS it will only present garbage - new garbage" julius said firmly as if Julius had no heart when he said it.
"But.he's your father.are you that cold when.." Naomi said, Julius cut.
"It was I who offered myself to Arthur to finish off all the descendants of Arielle, with this hand I closed my family history and from that moment on I threw away my last name and considered myself dead" timpal Julius and Naomi again surprised until Naomi confused what to say to respond to Julius' words, however, Naomi did not expect the figure that looks warm since her arrival at the house was actually a cold-blooded figure.
"Arielle's large residence I heard Morgan talk and with my two brothers in a room belonging to Morgan, the three of them planned the murder of Arthur, Guinevere's wife Arthur, Andrews, William, and Phillips. I wasn't involved with them because they understood my closeness to Arthur, which is why they avoided me" Julius continued
"After I was convinced that if I wasn't wrong, I became worried about choosing to side with my father or Arthur. It wasn't an easy choice young Miss Scott, because after all she was my father. But my anxiety was gone when Arthur called me to accompany him to play golf, yes.
"What are you two talking about?" asked Naomi who looked curious at that time.
"On the golf course at the time I asked Arthur to give my father the president's seat of PT GAS, but at that time he said 'I will not give that seat to your father, because your father was too ambitious to destroy the Arielle family and then after that, I don't know who else your family will oppress. But I'd be happy to give you that seat, but when your father dies so you can't be driven by anyone' that's what Arthur told me" Julius replied
"When I heard that, I could feel that Arthur had been trying to maintain balance between Gates, Arielle and Scott, it was my father who always wanted to have everything in his grasp and I could not refute Arthur's words" Julius continued to tell his story, then he took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.
"After that, I told him that I heard and knew firsthand that my father was going to kill him at the shareholders meeting and you know what he was responding to me?" julius asks Naomi, with Naomi's head in response to Julius's question.
"I.. don't know, but Arthur should be very angry." replied Naomi stammered as it was hard to believe Julius' story.
"Arthur said, 'I will bring your family to die with me and you will be my successor, so you will be strong so help people. It's okay even if it's just the people closest to you, help those you can help. Never expect thanks, anyway even though you will be alone still help people. Then die surrounded by many people, do not let you be like me. I believe you can continue to be a good ruler, because you and I are brothers" Julius said.
