Aqilla clucked after hearing the whole story of Kenzie about their parents who turned out to be still breathing in the other hemisphere. In fact, Kenzie knew the accurate location of their parents. But, the man did not even say anything to Aqilla.
“Why did the new brother say it now? Lala wants to see father and mother, Lala must know why we were banished first,” protest Aqilla with uncertain feelings. On the one hand, the woman was happy to know that the predicate of orphans had not been true. However, remembering her life in the orphanage made her grieve desperately.
Why are Aqilla and Kenzie in an Indonesian orphanage, while their parents are in Seoul, South Korea?
“La, do not impulse something without knowing the truth. Our parents lost us, not dumped us.” Kenzie tried to explain well. He did not want to instill hatred in his sister's heart.
Rayhan nodded in agreement. So did Robert, Reva, Jessie, and others.
Aqilla exhaled a long breath. “So, the plan?”
Kenzie puts his shoulders back. “What else? Yes we go there, lah!”
“Agree!” pekik Ely enthusiastic. “We go to Korea, hahaha.”.
“We're coming!” exclaiming the twins who suddenly nongol from behind the sofa. Jovan and Jovin's beads sparkle brightly, enthusiastic to take on new challenges.
Aqilla smiled with anxiety. He ruffled his daughter's hair and pinched her cheek. “OK, we go to Korea!”
...👑👑👑...
Seouli, Korea...
Jonathan Richard Jonesa, the middle-aged man still looks handsome even though he is almost stepping on the head of five. At his current age, Richard continues to serve as the leader of the company** Group.
The reason for that was because the man had no descendants to continue the company he founded.
No, actually he has.
From Richard's marriage to Kalina Anjani Jonesa they had two children. The man with the characteristic purple eyeball had a pair of twins many years ago. Unfortunately, due to an incident, their son disappeared and was never found.
Kalina who is usually called Lina was depressed. It took almost three years for the woman to give up her two children.
Exactly five years after the disappearance of the child, the police who led their case found two shapeless bodies on the river bank. That day, the entire Jonesa family mourned the news. According to the autopsy results, both bodies had DNA that matched Richard and Lina.
Richard and Kalina were devastated to hear this. They feel not as a parent because they fail to take care of their own children.
“Welcome, Sir,” welcome Soo-Kyun, Richard's assistant and secretary. Soo-Kyun is a native South Korean man, still young.
“How is the state of the company, Kyun?” ask Richard in fluent Korean. Living many years in the country made the man understand their culture and language.
His second position is currently in the room of President Richard's. His frail body sat leaning against the oversized chair, showing a dignity that would never be lost to age.
Soo-Kyun shakes her head. “Down, Mr.”
Suddenly Richard massaged his throbbing temple. This is all his fault for pushing himself too hard. He realized, he was no longer able to move like a young child. The energy Richard had was not that big.
“What do you think if I give this company access to Vivian, my nephew?” richard asked for an opinion.
“Master, maybe it's better not. I suggest you find another way. If this company falls into Miss Vivian's hands, I'm afraid that..” Soo-Kyun bites her lower lip in doubt. The thought of a haughty figure like Yuni having access to a company of this size made Soo-Kyun's head break.
Soo-Kyun does not want this company to be destroyed.
** Group is the largest company in Asia. Their parties are engaged in various fields; industry, hospitality, cosmetic production, and more. Unfortunately, lately the company's profits have gradually decreased because Richard's health is not good.
Richard breathed heavily. “That's the problem, Kyun. You know, I don't have kids. I am no longer young. I can't afford this company anymore.” Looking at his assistant. “I don't know what other way.”
Inevitably, Soo-Kyun is made concerned about the condition of her employer. He had heard the story of Richard's past through his father. Yes, the person who became Richard's assistant was actually Soo-Kyun's father. However, Soo-Kyun's father resigns due to age. So, Soo-Kyun replaces him.
“I'll talk about this with them,” break up Richard had no other choice. There are many employees who depend their lives on this company. If it goes out of business, thousands of people will lose their jobs.
...👑👑👑...
Nights...
Richard and Kalina agreed to give Vivian access to the** Group. If that happens, Yuni and Aquino will have rights there.
Tonight, the entire Jonesa family gathered to witness the signing of the dossier. Starting with dinner together, they try to melt the atmosphere.
Richard's relationship with Aquino is actually fine. It's just, Richard did not like the manner of Yuni, his sister's wife. Yuni was very haughty, always envious of what Richard and Kalina had. The woman often insinuates Kalina who does not have children—because it has been since giving birth to children, Kalina's uterus is problematic.
“So, Vivi, are you ready to take this responsibility?” asked Richard straightforwardly.
Vivian nodded with her gentle smile. Vivian Jonesa is a cute girl. He is very innocent and is often used by Yuni, his own mother.
“Then, sign here, darling,” pinta Kalina pointing to the top of the stamp.
Vivian turned her head towards her mother who nodded happily. The 25-year-old girl, according to her, put her signature on the stamp. Lastly, it just takes Richard's signature, then all the process is complete.
Richard wants to get a ballpoint pen. He said bismillah, hoping that this was the best decision for the company. Although doubt and fear surrounded his heart, Richard realized that he was no longer able to.
Richard's hand almost danced over the documents, but—
“WAIT!”
Everyone is surprised. They stood up reflexively, staring at the puzzled figure of the woman who had just appeared in her armor.
The newly arrived woman was wearing a robe with the IAF logo. The white color is shiny in the light of the lamp. The whole face was covered with a mask. Straightly, the figure said,
“Mrs Yuni Tamara, I brought a warrant to arrest you.”
Yuni widened her eyes. “APA?!”
