"Sir, wait for me." said Bram with his feet trying to follow the steps of his Boss who walked quickly into the cafe.
Bram sighed softly as suddenly the Emperor stopped his steps. He tried to tidy up a bit of his messy appearance.
They had just finished a meeting with one of the business associates at a nearby restaurant. Since lunch time had arrived shortly after they came out of the Restaurant, the Emperor stepped foot into the cafe not far from there.
"It looks like it would be nice to buy sweet food for him. Lately the sweet food here is quite popular with people. Perhaps I should buy also for Raila and him," the Emperor murmured staring at the well-arranged sweet food behind the glass table.
Bram frowned when he heard the muttering of his Boss
'Master Emperor was possessed by a genie from where is this?' batin Bram with a horrified face.
The Emperor sighed softly, turning his gaze to look at that secretary of his.
"Don't put on such a shitty face, Bram. Lately you have become more annoying than before," said the Emperor slightly annoyed, then raised his face to stare accidentally at the figure of the girl who was standing not far from his place.
Both the Emperor's eyes widened, as did the girl.
Suddenly, the Emperor's jaw tightened with a dead red face.
"You!" the Emperor clenched his hand.
Why was that woman there?!
Unexpectedly the girl immediately turned around to leave. Running out of the cafe with cold sweat pouring down his forehead.
"Hey!" the Emperor shouted in anger. He immediately ran past Bram chasing after the girl's steps.
'Ti-no. H-how could that guy be here?! Brother, help!' inner screaming.
He was scared, very scared. His fear made him run in an uncertain direction. He even forgot where his car was. In his mind just wanted to immediately eliminate from the sight of the man, until he subconsciously ran so far.
His two tiny legs slowly stopped beside the wall of the building by the roadside.
He leaned his back. His legs were limp so that he could not support his body weight.
"Hey, are you okay?" the sound made him look up.
On the other side.
The emperor was upset. He stopped his legs from getting irritated to the ground when he lost track of the girl.
'Damn it!' the Emperor was angry.
After searching for three months without stopping, to find and hold the wrong person. Now he even accidentally met with the main perpetrator. Unfortunately, he had lost track now.
"Suck!"
Slowly Bram's steps came to a halt beside the Emperor. The man tried to regulate his irregular roar of breath, gulping roughly his saliva at the sound of curses and a disembodied expression on his Boss' face.
"What's up, sir? Did you see anything so important that it ran out?" ask Bram. He was sure, if his boss couldn't just run away for no reason.
The emperor did not answer. He clenched his hand.
"Brake..."
Bram's body stiffened upon hearing the call. "Yes, Sir?"
"Do what I tell you again. Make all those people's investors withdraw their funds." the Emperor said, suppressing his remarks.
Bram was silent. His lips seemed stiff to say the word agree, but inevitably he still nodded his head. The Emperor's orders were absolute.
"good. I understand, sir." replied Bram obediently.
'Thank you for not torturing your sister. Accept what you should have received long ago, ' the inner Emperor walked past Bram with a dead red face.
"Have you felt better?"
The girl looked up at her face that had been looking down since. Look at the figure of the man who is now sitting on the sofa.
"Thank you."
"Sama-sama." Lion replied smiling sweetly.
Lion stared fixedly at the face of the girl he had just met beside the entrance of the apartment building in a sweaty state, like being chased by something.
"Are you really okay?" ask Lion. Although it had received an answer, it did not make Lion really sure if the girl in front of him was okay.
The girl just nodded slowly. Even though his hands seemed to be shaking holding a glass.
"If you feel tired, you can rest here. No need to hesitate or feel bad, just think of it as your own home."
The girl was surprised. He blinked a few times, hesitating about what Lion said. They had just met a few minutes ago, but the man who knew who it was treated her so well.
"thank you. N-not necessary, sir. I will soon return to the parking lot where my car is," he replied formally, making Lion's face instantly flat.
"alright. If anything happens, you can run back here." said Lion smiled again despite a slight look of unwillingness in his eyes.
A few minutes later.
Now only Lion in the living room. He bowed while touching his forehead.
'Am I in too much of a hurry?' inner Lion wondered.
Slowly Lion changed position, leaning his back rough and looking up at the ceiling of his apartment living room. Lion sighed softly.
"She's very pretty. Exactly like you, Risya." shrewdly Lion smiled smugly.
He just wanted to go out to buy some less groceries in his apartment. However, who would have thought he accidentally saw a tiny girl who only had time to see through photos.
Without a second thought, Lion offered to help and took the girl to his apartment. The girl who was so similar to the woman he loved, there were only a few parts that resembled him.
"You've grown well, honey. Just try Dad was there with you guys, is it possible that you would hug Dad tightly?" muttered Lion began to wander. Then he chuckled softly, it felt like it was an impossible thing to happen.
Though Risya's two children are also her children, but it is so difficult for her to get close just because of her parents' past conflicts.
"Damn it!" as if Lion is upset.
On the other side.
The debate is taking place in the room of the Arkana Family's luxurious residence.
"Are you really not able to do everything well, Liorand?" the cold speech felt so piercing to Liorand's heart, but she just kept quiet without being able to refute it.
Grandfather Lingga smacked with his hateful gaze. "I shouldn't have let you. The trust I've been giving you all along, will it just end? You're really unreliable." he didn't like it.
Liorand clenched her hands behind her body. He stood still looking down at the floor at his grandfather's great table.
So far, has he ever received praise from the figure he considers as grandfather?
Liorand began to wonder inwardly. The envy that he had been feeling, the anger that was not channeled, everything was mixed and ready to explode. But, Liorand still tried to hold him back. The figure before him was his grandfather.
"Your mother ended up being like a soulless person, is it only up here that you can do to protect them, huh?!" Grandpa Lingga kicked his desk strong. He was angry to see the condition of his grandson who was not so good since going to the hospital last time.
"Don't you do this, too?"
Instantly Grandpa Lingga stared intently at Liorand who was now seen returning her gaze.
"Just because I have a face like Dad, you treat me so harshly like this. Who was selfish until something like this happened? Don't you have to ask yourself, Grandpa." said Liorand who couldn't stem his emotions.
