...Maybe it's time I told you about my past...
" Hufff (sighs) It's time for me to be honest with you dear about cleona" Louis said softly
"Honestly??? about what???" ask Agatha curiously
"Honest of my past" said Louis
Makes Agatha frown her forehead
"But before that you have to promise me not to hate Cleona or to change her attitude, I beg you to continue to love her and love her like a child yourself Even though you know the truth " louis said gently but slightly pressed
"All right, I promise you, Louis, whatever the truth is, Cleona is still my daughter, and no one can interfere with that" Agatha said
"Although without you warning I will still love and love her with all my heart and with all my soul because she is my daughter" Agatha continued
Hearing that made Louis calm and begin his story
"So actually....." Louis was still hesitating and he continued his words
"Cleona is not my real daughter" Louis said
Agatha was a little surprised but soon it was possible that she changed her facial expression
" Who is louis' daughter??? " ask Agatha
" She's the daughter of the woman I once loved" Louis said as she looked up at the skyline of her room
"Where is he now???" asked Agatha doubtfully afraid of offending louis
"She's dead" said Louis, and the sadness on her husband's face made Agatha speak a thousand languages
"........"
"Before he died he told me to look after and love Esther like my own daughter" Louis said
"Ester???" ask Agatha who was a little confused
" yes, Cleona's real name is Esther Claretta Jesse Leoray but I have changed her name to Queen Cleona Auristella Geofaaz to disguise her identity because many enemies want to kill her" Louis said
"But if I may know dear how cleona's mother died" asked Agatha
" He died by suicide, because Cleona's father betrayed his love" Louis said
"I'm still confused, unfortunately, this polemic you're telling me can you tell me in detail from start to finish" Agatha said
Louis smiled and nodded
"So this story begins with...."
Louis POV
At that time I was trying to escape from the pursuit of loan sharks who wanted to sell me on the black market.I was an orphan when my mother died of illness and my father remarried to a widow child 2.
My life was ruined when my father left for good after my late mother. The entire inheritance that should have been given to me behind the name was slyly by my stepmother.
All the possessions of my parents were only spent on gambling by my stepmother until she was in debt and could not pay it off.
Because there was nothing else he could use to pay the debt in the end I was the tool to repay the debt.When I was only 18 years old.
Briefly when I was going to be taken to the auction I managed to escape and accidentally met a man I already considered like my own real father.
"Are you okay, son???" he asked the man, extending his hand to help me stand up
"I'm fine sir, but.." I said and at the same time a group of loan sharks came to arrest me.
" you are here apparently a s*alan boy" said one of the loan shark's men while trying to catch me
But without guessing the man I hit by accident even helped me by beating them all
I could only shut my eyes and shut not when the fierce fight could take some lives from the loan sharks.
After it was over, the man came back to me
"What's your name young man???" soft tananya
"N-name sa-ya samuel sir" I answered stammered
" Want to come with me???" tanyanya to the point
"............" I dare not answer out of fear though this man is gentle but he has an extraordinary side of cruelty
" Are you afraid of me???" ask back
"........." I kept quiet.
"Let's relax I'm not gonna hurt you, I have a single daughter and I'm so worried about her,If you want to come with me then I will make you his brother in order to guard and protect him as my representative how??? do you want to?." explained it to me
"........" I still didn't dare to answer but on second thought I had no purpose for this escape and I was afraid to get caught again by the loan shark
At last....
" I'm willing to come with you" I said.
"Good decision, so from now on you are my adopted son and your name is no longer Samuel but Alexander Thorpher
