I'm the Newspaper Seller

27. Heirs

...***...

Bastian stared at the picture frame where there was his face and also the face of Mr. Dewantoro who smiled so happily while embracing his shoulder so very tightly but it was only a memory and embrace that made a precious memory for Bastian who for the first time felt the warmth of a Father.

The door crashed making Bastian so shocked. His two eyes were rounded, staring at some men in police uniforms with pistols in his hands and handcuffs stepping into the room.

"What's this?" bastian asked quickly getting up from his bed.

"Foul with Mr Bastian?"

"Yes right."

"Brother, you we've arrested."

"Caught?"

"Yes, you are alleged to have killed Mr. Dewantoro in the hospital."

"Kill?" the question was thrown with an unexpected face so that someone stepped into the room splitting some policemen who blocked his path and finally saw Melinda who seemed to smile so very cunningly along with Reno who was followed behind him.

"Capture him, sir! He killed my father!"

"Kill?" whispered Bastian again who was so clueless.

Honestly, he did not expect if Melinda really accused him of killing Mr. Dewantoro.

"I didn't kill Mr. Dewantoro!" bastian protested when some of the police forcefully pulled his hand out and handcuffed both hands.

Bastian did not rebel at all when the policemen were handcuffing his wrists. He knew the truth would be revealed.

"Sir, I'm not a murderer, sir! I'm so in love with Mr. Dewantoro that Bastian can't kill Mr. Dewantoro."

"Mr can explain it at the police station!"

"Not to explain, sir! Just put him in jail" said Melinda who was behind the scenes.

"Sir, please sir! Understand with me, sir!

"Please explain it at the office."

"Sir, please listen to Bastian's explanation first, sir. Where is the act of justice sir like this, sir."

"Father cop!" someone made the police and Bastian stop his steps.

Bastian turned to look at the driver and his aides who were running around swarming around.

"Sir, please don't arrest Mr. Bastian! Bastian is innocent. He didn't kill Mr. Dewantoro!"

Melinda's eyes were so rounded that the makers helped Bastian. They had dared to defend the adopted child.

"Hey you! You all have defended your own master's killer. The one who's been paying you all this time is Papa I'm not Bastian. Bastian was just a foster kid he even killed Mr. Dewantoro you should be angry as well as he instead defended him!!!" his bluff made the aides gasp in shock.

"You want me to fire? Do you want me to fire now?"

His appointment made the driver and his servants now bowed and looked at each other as if they did not know what to do now.

"And all of you should know that I am in charge of this house. Currently and forever I who hold experts are not all Dewantoro sir because I am the only child of Mr. Dewantoro.

"But Madam-"

"Are you guys fighting back? If you dare to speak in the slightest I'll push you right now!" his threat made the drivers and his assistant was now silent, silent and silent, not daring to speak. They were all afraid that Melinda would really fire them all.

Then if they are really fired then where they will find money to finance their families in the village. Now they could only be silent looking at Bastian who was still staring at them with a face so anxious.

"Follow us!" the police said then pulled back Bastian who again shouted and pleaded.

"Sir, please listen to Bastian! Listen to me, sir! Bastian couldn't have killed Mr. Dewantoro."

"Sir, please, sir! I I couldn't have killed Mr. Dewantoro!"

"Stop!"

The man's voice rang out making the police turn their head to look towards the black-clothed man standing on the lip of the door. Bastian also turned his head to look at the man in the black suit.

He still remembered this man who had been to the hospital. The same black-clothed man who came in the hospital room the day before Mr. Dewantoro died.

"Bastian is innocent, not Bastian who killed Mr. Dewantoro. He died of illness in the hospital."

"Do you have any evidence?" sahut Melinda's.

"I have, I can even call the doctor who has handled Mr. Dewantoro in the hospital and you can all see the CCTV installed in the hospital if Mr. Bastian does not kill Mr. Dewantoro."

"But we're just doing Melinda's job" the police said.

"He said that because he didn't feel happy about Bastian coming to this house."

"Heh, you don't interfere, yeah! Who are you really?" Appoint Melinda who is so very upset.

The man in the suit smiled. He put his foot in.

"Heirs?"

"Yes." Yeah."

Hearing that made Melinda smile so happily.

"So you're Seto who made Papa's heir letter!"

Melinda smiled again so very happy. He stepped over to Bastian and several policemen were still holding him.

"Well then I want Mr. Seto to read the heirs of everything and after that I want if the person whose name is listed in the paper can stay in this house and the name is not it says on the paper it has to get out of this house."

"Today, too," he continued to make Bastian bow.

It looks like he will soon be out of this house. Melinda looked back at Bastian with a level so very cynical and hateful.

"Prepare to get out of this house!" the whisper is so very evil.

...****...

Now they had all gathered in the family room while Seto stood before all of them holding a paper ready to be read out along with the policemen who would bear witness in the reading of the heirs those.

"Pak Seto can please read the contents of the heirs of my Papa's decision because I don't have much time and also I don't want to linger seeing my Papa's killer's face here."

"Bastian didn't kill Melinda's sister!" bastian's objection made Melinda smile cynically.

He doesn't care what Bastian says with his objection, he'll be out of this house soon. Melinda occasionally looks at the watch on her wrist and then mama with annoyance.

"Pak Seto can go faster!" his door made Mr. Seto nod his head.

"Fill the decree from Mr. Dewantoro if the heirs of the house and the contents of the company and the property owned by Mr. Dewantoro are given to..."

Melinda's eyes narrowed so impatiently to hear her name called while Bastian was now only able to bow down with everything.

"Bastian's son Dewantoro" he said.

"What?" whispered Bastian who did not expect even after hearing that made him look up immediately to look at Mr. Seto who looked smiling.

Melinda's eyes were so shocked. He did not know what he had heard.

"Bastian? Why is that name called? Why isn't your name in the letter?" whispered Reno who was also very surprised.

Melinda hit the table hard. He got up from the sofa and pointed at the man in the suit.

"You don't just talk, yeah!"

"What's Melinda's mom saying? I just read the letter that has been determined by Mr. Dewantoro."

"The letter was not really supposed to be an heir and all of my Papa's wealth fell into my hands because I was his biological son not his adopted son."

"Bastian is just a kid. He just hitchhiked and his life was just on the streets as a newspaper salesman!!!" point at it with a scream so shrill.

"This is already a provision from Mr. Dewantoro, can no longer be contested. I just wrote what I was told if you don't believe I can show you the video."

"There is some evidence that has shown that Mr. Dewantoro has told me to write this will "

"I was very unexpected. It's all so-so crazy. I don't want my Papa's treasure to fall to him! Crazy fuck," he said.

"You! You intentionally, didn't you force my Papa to give all his property to you, did you?"

Bastian got up while shaking his head. At times like this, Melinda again accused him of being a no-no.

"I never intended to influence Mr. Dewantoro."

"Based on your liar. You're happy, right? You're happy after you've managed to master all of my Papa's treasures? You must die! You must die!!!" melinda's screams led the policemen to quickly arrest Melinda before she actually approached Bastian.

"Sir, please take this woman out of the house according to the agreement!" show me Mr. Seto.

"Well, sir," the policemen answered and pulled Melinda's wrist and took her out of the house, prompting Melinda to scream in rebellion as well as Reno.

"Basik you! You took all of my Papa family's treasures, you sly base!!!" shout Melinda.

Both of Bastian's eyes closed tightly. He sat down on the couch squeezing his head so badly. None of this is his will. He never even intended to master all the treasures of Mr. Dewantoro.

Someone patted his shoulder making Bastian turn to look at Seto sir who was smiling towards him.

"Don't be sad and don't regret everything! You deserve everything."

"But I can't bear to see Melinda's sister and Reno leave this house."

"Why do you still care about him? They don't even care about you."

"But-"

"Have it, don't be so good! Too good is not good either."

"Adjust that kindness to the right people. Evil people like them should also be avenged with evil."
