The Continent of Europe

Chapter 66's

From the beginning there was one dark secret that was always hidden by the members of the golden money from the public. Even the media that is clever in extracting information cannot penetrate or know the dark secret.

Because the golden money is not only smart but also cunning. They used innocent lives to protect the secrets. For them, money is everything. The power they have is everything.

Everything is everything. Nothing can damage the high degree that has long been framed in the name of the golden money. The degree of life that makes them equal to the governments.

"Twenty-five years ago, a murder based on the Vreaa family's name was a fraud. Thomas Ben Vreaa's. That's the name of the man who was thrown in jail a few years ago. He was innocent. He never did the murder."

At the age of seven, James had eavesdropped on his parents' conversation in the living room. That day was the first time James had heard Vreaa's last name and he did not realize it was the name he had seen on television this morning.

Until, the other golden money members came to his house. It was the first time she had met the Jenkins family and it just so happened that they also had a daughter who was the same age as her.

At the time of their first meeting, they become even more awkward as Jenkins' father and family try to match her with their daughter.

James who was a child that day just nodded and laughed. Promise to marry their daughter. But today, it was the first time James realized he wouldn't marry the girl. It would all be a disaster if they were together.

"He is innocent. The Vreaa family is innocent. They don't kill people. We're trapping them!" James shouted, "I swear I've heard my parents say that! They are innocent!"

"You're crazy" cried Clark, "that's because he knows the secrets of the golden money! How can we let him know about the secret!"

"I don't care. I'm sick of living like this, Clark! Are you not concerned about Rosaline? His family is ruined because of us!"

"Then do you think the golden money will let that person live? He knows the secrets of the golden money, James! How many times do I want to tell you that?! If the secret is spread to the public, this time there will be no more tolerance from the government. We're gonna be ruined, James!"

"So, by destroying someone's life? Where's the humanity you have, Clark?"

"Oh shut up James. Don't act like this is all my family's fault. The golden money, even your own parents! Those who planned the Vreaa family's murder ten years ago."

James remained silent. He doesn't know what to say anymore. Because what Clar said just now is the truth. Although he was not there on the day the Vreaa family was murdered, he knew that his father was involved in something bad at the time.

At the age of ten, he discovered the truth. From there the relationship between James and his father began to deteriorate. Never again be together without arguments like before. There are always quarreling or always fighting.

"Where is he?" James asked. Eyes floated around Clark's face, warning the girl to tell him the truth. "Don't lie to me. Tell me where is he? Let him go."

His voice was calm but anyone who heard him could guess that the blond man was angry. Clark. He sat himself on the sofa crossing his legs. The girl smiled obliquely, like she was thinking of something sneaky.

"I'll tell you, after you comply with my request."

When a few strands of maroon-colored hair were caught by his gaze, he growled. He knows who it is. Of course who else if not Clark Sadie Jenkins. The woman who kidnapped him and kept him here.

"What else do you want?" Ask Rosaline sharply. The brunnet-haired girl did not even bother to take her eyes off to avoid the face of the demonic woman.

"Just want to see my hostage" he replied with a laugh. Clark stopped in front of Rosaline with a sly smile that he never lost and grabbed Rosaline's chin once again.

From behind her body, Clark took out a piece of paper and spread it out before Rosaline's eyes so that the brunnete girl could see the contents. At first Rosaline was not interested in seeing what the contents of the paper were, but once her eyes accidentally caught James' name she became curious.

"Me and James are getting married soon."

Clark's words just now inevitably made Rosaline choke on her own saliva in shock. The brunnete girl raised her head quickly, until a cracking sound was heard. He could have sworn, there must have been one of the broken bones in his neck.

"W-what?" He seemed to try as hard as possible to deny the negative thoughts in his head.

"You heard it exactly as you heard it" Clark said, arrogantly. The maroon-red girl slipped the paper back into her pocket and finally, removed her grip from Rosaline's chin.

"We're bound to fall in love, Rosaline. His love for you is only the wind. He never loved you. Don't expect too much!" Clark yelling.

Rosaline with her trembling emerald eyes looked at Clark sharply. As sharp as a blade that was eager to slit the neck of the maroon-headed girl.

"I never expected" replied Rosaline, half shouting.

He gritted his teeth and still looked at Clark who was now smiling cunningly towards him. Oh my god, anyone please untie this in his hand. That way he can hit that shitty Clark in the face.

Just as Rosaline opened her mouth to speak again, suddenly a dazzling light came from behind her. With great difficulty the girl turned her head only to see a projector screen plastered.

Instantly, the blinding light behind him disappeared and moved forward. Right after that, two burly men stormed into the room where Rosaline and Clark were.

Rosaline knew who the two burly men were. One of them was the one who intercepted him into the Jenkins family home.

"Look at this, Rosaline," Clark grinned, grabbing something that Rosaline couldn't see.

After that, the one in Rosaline's vision was no longer white but rather a shocking news caught in her eyes.

"The golden money wedding. Jenkins and Adler's family will be in action soon."
