In the old house belonging to the Lu family, Lu Chen seemed to be staring at the window with his blank gaze.
“Young Master, are you ready?.” Ask Mr. Lucas to Lu Chen.
“Come Mr. Lucas!.” Lu Chen replied then switched from his daydream and followed Mr. Lucas away.
Today is the anniversary of Mr.'s death. Zao Lu Lu Lu Chen's. The day he had to meet his father, Jackson Lu. After ten years they finally came face to face. Since his parents decided to separate, Lu Chen and Jackson almost never met again, because their relationship was never good as before.
Lu Chen had never visited even though he was just greeting his father. If only there was a quarrel between the two, this was not much different from Jiang Xi's Mommy, only Jiang Xi met her son Lu Chen more often. For Lu Chen right now whether or not his parents are the same, because they were never present at important moments in his life even when he graduated from school.
In front of the mansion the big Lu family had been filled with news hunters who had been waiting for the arrival of Jason Lu aka Lu Chen.
Lu Chenpun's car that came with Mr. escorted. Lucas and the bodyguards were immediately raided right then and there. However Lu Chen simply opened his car glass and displayed his smile to the reporters. And this has made the reporters satisfied because they have managed to take a picture of Lu Chen who is in the residence of Jackson Lu. Of course this is strong evidence that the news is true, that Lu Chen is the son of Jackson Lu who is a successful businessman in Indonesia.
The atmosphere in the mansion was silent despite the large number of guests there, and all the guests present were dressed in black. The presence of Jason Lu back then, made all the shareholders present there simultaneously glance towards him. Because the Young Tuan heiress of JF Group has only appeared after a long time.
Hicks! Hicks!.
The cry of a known woman is Mrs Summer, Robby's Mommy.
“Pa, why did you leave so soon?. I'm alone, Pa. Hicks! Hiks!.” (in mandarin) Tangis Madam Lu saw the ashes of her late father.
“Mommy, already My!.” (mandarin language) Pinta Robby to her Mommy to stop her crying.
Seen beside Madame Summer, standing straight up Lu Chen's father, Jackson Lu who stared flatly at Mr. Zao Lu who was behind his ashes. There was not the slightest trace of sadness on his face, it seemed like his tears had dried up as time went on.
Before long came Lu Chen who walked slowly to his grandfather's navel. His steps stopped right in the middle of Jackson and Robby Lu. He then began to pay his respects to Mr.'s ashes. Zao Lu, as soon as he finished paying his respects Lu Chenpun turned around and was about to leave the mansion. But his steps stopped when he heard the greeting Jackson Lu, his father.
“Someone I want to talk to you about, wait for me in the room!.” With a slight tone whispered into Lu Chen's ear to keep their conversation from being heard by the others.
“Is there still something we need to talk about?.” Lu Chen asked without looking at his father's face.
“I know you understand what I mean. It's about your late grandfather.” Jackson replied that instantly made Lu Chen speechless. Then he left Jackson to go to the waiting room with Mr. Jackson. Lucas.
Lu Chen's departure from the presence of his family in a hurry made the guests present wonder about the father and son's relationship. It is very obvious that their relationship is not harmonious.
After two hours, one guest began to say goodbye to Jackson Lu. At the time Jackson was releasing the departure of his guests. Jackson is surprised by the arrival of someone in the past, the past that until now still fills his heart and mind and the past is someone who has been his life partner for dozens of years.
Instantly his gaze turned to the figure of a beautiful woman whom he missed so much these dozen years. In his absence, which he thought could be replaced by anyone, in fact there was never a woman who could replace him. Although her heart and mind are as hard as a stone, but for this woman her heart and mind can always soften at any time. If that time could be repeated, perhaps he could change the view of this much-missed woman.
A smile rose from the face of Jackson who saw his ex-wife. But unlike Jiang Xi, the woman only displayed a bitter smile when she saw her ex-husband. Ex-husband who has left many wounds in the heart and also physical. An ex-husband who never appreciated her as a wife. And an ex-husband who never wanted to know the contents of his wife's heart and mind. How could Jiang Xi give such a sweet smile to such a man?.
“Jackson.” Greet Jiang Xi back with a bitter smile.
Jackson approached Jiang Xi who was standing opposite him. Not knowing why Jiang Xi's body was currently unable to move, it was difficult to meet Jackson again. Wanting to refuse his request at that time, but always about Lu Chen he could never ignore it and Jackson knew his weakness.
Jackson tried to grab Jiang Xi's fingers back then, but was directly patted by Jiang Xi. Without diminishing his respect for Jackson who was the host of the event, Jiang Xipun chose to enter the mansion without being invited back by Jackson.
Inside the mansion instantly the guests were in an uproar with Jiang Xi's presence, they thought that the mansion's great madam had returned. That means Jackson has returned to his ex-wife. But Jiang Xi did not care about the ramblings of the guests and continued to step her foot into the navel, Mr. Zao Lu's. And he paid his respects to Lu Chen's late grandfather, after all Mr. Zao Lu once contributed to his family's company. Thanks to the marriage between him and Jackson Lu the share price of his family-owned company increased rapidly. Although it had to be paid with a painful life for Jiang Xi for a dozen years.
After his last respects Jiang Xi was brought by Mr. Lucas went to the room in the mansion to rest. Jackson could only see Jiang Xi from a distance because he did not want to be a burden on his ex-wife. He knew that Jiang Xi still hated himself so much, wanting to regret it for nothing because the rice had become porridge. They have separated and the court has been a witness to their divorce.

In a room looked Lu Chen who was staring at the man before him with unsettling eyes. That man was Jackson Lu, Lu Chen's own father who had not met in the past ten years.
“I know many questions in you to me, Lu.” Said Jackson staring firmly at his son Lu Chen.
“What are you inviting me here for?. Just say it straight to the point.” Said Lu Chen who did not want to linger in the room.
“Alright, Lu. You know your grandfather left the company to you. And I mean what invited you here was to take your promise to him. I want early next year you can already join the company!.” Pinta Jackson to Lu Chen who sounded like an order to him.
“Heh!. I thought you never changed!. Just the company you're worried about. After all this time we haven't met and this is all you're saying?.” Asked Lu Chen with a growl.
“Otherwise, Lu?. Do you know what our company is like now?. Do you know what I struggle with every day in dealing with a company like what?. Look at you who's just busy with your career, no matter what our investors say?. You've had enough to play around!.” The words that Jackson had always spoken to Lu Chen from childhood. Instantly it began to ring in his mind again and began to make Lu Chen break out in a cold sweat.
“...play around..” Jackson's echoing and swirling words in his current memory. Lu Chen started massaging his forehead as he remembered those words.
“Heh! Have you ever thought about my feelings?. How did I struggle from childhood because of you!. And how did I suffer then?.” Said Lu Chen with teary eyes and hardened jaws to Jackson Lu, Lu Chen had no power to hold back his anger.
Lu Chenpun immediately left the room leaving Jackson. As Lu Chen turned around, Jackson spoke words that deeply provoked his emotions.
“I know about the woman, Lu!.” Jackson's speech instantly made Lu Chen turn his body back towards him.
“Don't you ever touch her!. I will never forgive you for life!.” Said Lu Chen with a murderous gaze towards his own father. And Lu Chen just walked away from Jackson.
“Basic you son don't know lucky!. You loser!. You…!. You…!.. Until the tightness in the chest came back to Jackson Lu because of the spicy words from Lu Chen's mouth. However, Lu Chen did not look at Jackson at that moment and continued to move his feet out of the room.
