"Stay away!"
Li told the doctor who used to handle Karina to stay away. The doctor was surprised and obedient. Brian stared at the confused Li.
"This doctor's uncle used to handle Mother," said Brian.
"Don't you say it's poison? This doctor has been dealing with your mother for years but her condition does not improve even more decreased!"
"But his uncle is the best doctor here."
"This is not his fault. But this is beyond his ability and knowledge" Li replied.
"Young Master, the world is vast. You will soon see a new world after this. So it's better to prepare yourself to accept it" Li said. Brian looked at Li, his gaze staring far away.
"The outside world? Uncle are we going to get out of here?"
"of course. This is not your place!"firmly Li. Brian was silent, looking at the mother. Li checked Karina's pulse. His forehead was furrowed, the look on his face was clearly worried. The rough breath he let out.
Not long after, Basurata came in and sat down beside Brian.
"Uncle is your mother's condition getting worse?" Brian clearly caught Li's face. Basurata frowned thinly.
Li nodded.
"But you don't have to worry. Arriving at the headquarters, your mother's condition will improve" Li said, calming the two boys.
"What are we going to do next?"ask Rangga. He could come in because of Bahtiar.
"Prepare the vehicles, we're back at headquarters now!"said Li.
"But Queen is not yet conscious," hesitated Rangga.
"Uncle according to past events, Mother will wake up after three days" said Bahtiar. Li stared at Bahtiar at a glance.
"True sir, let alone with an injury to the Queen's coconut. Maybe he'll be conscious for more than three days" added the doctor.
"Three days? It's a long time. This is not a draining trip, after all. Rangga you take care of the vehicle. We'll keep going back to base!"firmly Li.
"Good, Brother."
Rangga lowered Bahtiar next to Basurata then walked out of the room.
"Uncle are you ready, Mother?" Basurata stared at Li's fingers clutching Karina's fingers. His gaze was difficult for Li to articulate, similar to Karina's gaze.
"I? Our relationship is so much, Young Master. Sometimes I become a sister. Sometimes a brother, sometimes a friend, also as a subordinate. I'm your mother's right hand. Our relationship is united by destiny, stronger than the bonds of the biological family. Your mother is Uncle's angel. So can you tell me what kind of relationship that is?"
"I thought you were our father" Basurata chuckled successfully.
"Hahahaha .. You have a great sense of humor. How could I marry Karina? Your mother is a cold woman. It's a good thing your father melted his heart."
"Our birth father? Who is Uncle?" Karina answered Li's question in Indonesian, clearly the three children did not understand.
"The answer is to your mother." Li looked at Karina who was still unconscious. Li looked at Karina.
A body full of scars, that his face was also injured. Li suspected it was the result of a plane crash. But there was one more thing that Li was confused about.
If Karina survives, it's not too surprising, but how can her pregnancy not be disrupted? She even gave birth to three twins without any defects. Is this what is called divine power?
"Sir, the helicopter will arrive soon" said Rangga, breaking Li's daydream.
Li nodded.
"Wait when we agreed to go?"
"Stop Bara! Mother's condition is more important!"reproof Brian.
"real Sister. I need to get out to heal, "bahtiar added.
"But what about Emir's father?"
"He has no right to forbid! Karina is not his wife!"answer Li.
"Rangga call the center that we've found Queen. Make a welcome for him!"decreed Li.
"Good, Brother."
"Wait for Li …."
Li turned to look at Karina who was slowly starting to wake up. Those sharp eyes opened, gnashing weakly.
"Karina .. thank goodness you've come to your senses." Li helped Karina sit leaning against the headboard.
"Don't tell them I'm alive. I don't want any hoopla. Better get them to gather at headquarters. It's better" said Karina weakly.
"If that's your order, I will carry it out" said Rangga, back out.
"The children are ready to go home" Karina told her three children.
"But what about Emir's father?" Basurata asked the same question.
"He's not your real father. The mother and the Emir have nothing to do. It's a fake relationship. Besides, Brian you're not the oldest. You have three more brothers. The oldest is named Bintang, she is the only daughter of Mother. The second is Blue and the third is Bima. Your father's name is Arion Wijaya. He is the CEO of Wijaya Grub."
"So our eldest sister while we're all younger brothers?" Brian was stunned as well as his two younger siblings.
"really. That's reality. So get ready."
When Brian, Basurata, and Bahtiar wanted to leave the room, they were surprised by the incoming Emir with anxious faces. Standing around looked at Li and Karina who were very close, even hand in hand, not to mention Karina who was leaning on Li.
The Emir's face turned grim. Jealousy approached him.
"Stay away from my wife!"exclaimed the Emir stared intently at Li, a gaze full of threats and a desire to kill.
"I'm not your wife, Emir!"
Karina replied by giving off her aura of intimidation. Emir gasp. This was not the first time he felt Karina's bullying aura, but it was completely different.
"What's? What do you mean, Kaira? You're my wife!" The Emir gave up, but his body panicked. Cold sweat began to wash over him.
"Emir I remember everything. We never got married and will never get married!"
"W-what? You-you've got your memories?"
"really. It's time to go back!"
"No! Can't! You can't leave!"pekik Emir's.
"What do you mean, Mr Emir?" Rangga went back in, asking coldly to the Emir.
Huff
"Kaira is my wife! You can't leave me, Kaira!"
The Emir approached Karina, trying to keep Li away from Karina.
The furious Li directly kicked the Emir. The Emir fell on the floor.
"Dark-nosed! You don't understand what my Queen says, do you?"hiss Li.
"Q-queen? Who the hell are you, Kaira?"
"Let me answer it!" Li stood up, staring coldly at the Emir.
"She is Karina Tirta Sanjaya! She is the Blue Sword Queen!"
"W-what? How's it possible?" Emir was surprised not to play. His knees were weak, unable to stand. His eyes, is there still hope?
"Emir let Kaira go. This is indeed not a suitable place for him," said Osman who entered by being wedged by a waiter.
"Dad?" Emir. Osman stared at the concerned Emir.
"Queen .. forgive my stupidity. Please excuse him" Osman said politely.
"No problem. It's not entirely your fault either" Karina replied.
"Prince, there's a helicopter landing in front of the fortress!"report one of the soldiers with an anxious face.
"Heli-helicopter?" The Emir stood up.
"I'll be back now. There's something important I'm gonna take care of. When it's over, I'll visit you to talk about our relationship."
"Our relations?" Emir seemed to get a fresh wind.
"Yes, I don't want to be indebted. Of course we have to talk about it."
Li chuckled at the face of the Emir who had returned moody.
"No! I can't let you go alone. Kaira I admit I tied you up in a fake relationship. But trust me, my love and affection are real. Especially in children. I beg you to consider our relationship all along."
"No Emir. My husband is only one. He is my only husband. Don't provoke my anger. If you want to come, then come along. Uncle can also come," said Karina.
"I'm going to come!"
"All right," said Osman.
Change of attitude is not strange anymore. In this world the powerful and the powerful are highly respected. Same with Osman. He cannot risk endangering all his people. The Emir began to adjust. Forcing Karina to seek death. The Emir realized that Li was a very capable person, if pitted maybe they drew or he could lose. The Emir wanted to know what Karina's life was like as well as the Karina family. Mana knows there's still a blemish for her to get Karina.
"Emir please bring Aldric as well" Karina said.
"Aldric's? What's taking her for?"
"He's gonna be my man!"
"It depends on his approval, Queen," Osman said.
"With his actions, does he have the right to refuse?"
Emir and Osman looked at each other. Karina's smile made them goosebumps.
"Uncle, Emir, can I come too?" Rayan entered with a hopeful face.
"Li what...?"
"Just calm down, Queen. This subordinate understands very well."
Karina grunts a smile.
"I wonder what you achieved. I hope I don't disappoint."
"We made a promise and swore an oath, which will make you smile proudly at us when you return. If you don't come back, you can smile from the sky. Smile proud and satisfied at this subordinate of yours," Li said, softly.
"I can't wait to see it."
Li carried Karina out towards the helicopter. The Emir clenched his hands together, really jealous. Osman shook his head slowly, patting the Emir on the shoulder.
"Had I told you, which eagle could you possibly lock up in a golden cage. Now he has flown far, back to where he came from" said the Emir.
"I'm sorry Dad. I should have said earlier. Kaira must have been my legal wife" the Emir said.
"Emir, regret is meaningless. We better look at the situation, then act if there is blame. Remember. Children are closer to you than their real fathers. There's still a chance" Rayan suggested.
"All right."

"Karina I'm surprised by you. Why don't you ask about Arion and your kids?"
"Because I know."
Li raised his eyebrows.
"The message I left before I went missing."
"You believe in Arion so much?"
"Li my heart believes in him. It won't be double even if I'm really gone. There are you guys anyway."
"You're right."
"Hm. So what about uhukk .. uhukk .. uhukk."
Karina coughed up blood again. Brian who was asleep, woke up and looked anxiously at Karina while rubbing his eyes. Karina swiftly covered the blood on her palm.
"Mother …."
"Just cough, Brian. Mother is fine."
Brian narrowed his eyes in disbelief, nodding softly not wanting to make Karina depressed.
"Haha I'm so weak. Li now I'm not the Karina I used to be. My body is weak and also deformed. Is Arion going to accept me?" Karina's eyes were doubtful. Li was silent for a moment then took a deep breath. Brian, who doesn't understand the language Karina uses, just replaces it. The first thing he responded to was doubt, anxiety, and fear.
"Karina I don't care if you come back paralyzed. We're your family. How could we reject you just because of that little wound? Arion's? He really loves you, no matter what your condition he'll take it."
"Yes, I get it. It's just …."
"Rest. Recover your strength," Li sidestepped. Karina according. Leaning on Li then closed his eyes slowly. The sound of a helicopter propeller was not a barrier to her falling asleep.
"It's the first time I've seen Mother so soundly asleep" said Brian, staring gently at Karina.
Li smiled in response.
