The next day...
Sersi wears a black dress that exposes his shoulders and thighs, and is only five inches above the knee that wraps around his body.
The black dress shows every curve of Sersi's body that is fair and sexy, making Alex stunned for a moment.
They are now at the Verge restaurant to discuss what rules Sersi should follow if a contract marriage takes place. Along with Samuel who as usual escort Alex wherever he goes.
"Good morning sir" Sersi said to his boss.
"Hmmm" Alex's reply was brief and immediately ordered Samuel to show them the documents they would agree on together.
"Samuel, give me the document."
"Yes, Sir. Sersi please read first all, here are the rules that you must obey and the points that you will get." said Samuel to Sersi thrust the blue-clad document.
Sersi received the document, and looked towards Alex as well as Samuel. Then he began to open the document, and read the entire contents of the document carefully.

But looking at the rules written there, Sersi slightly frowned on why she was not made a wife but a servant. It can't work and yes it does.
'he's looking for a wife or a waitress actually?' inner Sersi muttered somewhat grumbling while reading she had to prepare this it and blah blah.
But he finally inevitably had to obey and accept because the money he had sent to Cindy to be used for her brother's treatment. Let him be like this, count him pay money from his boss by doing a fake marriage and energy.
"Why do you mind all the rules I want? Or do you want to add something you want?" ask Alex to Sersi.
Because seeing Sersi's reaction from the beginning is less comfortable, visible from his furrowed eyebrows and looks like a face that is holding back upset.
"Eh. emm ti. no sir. I'm just em, even though we married my contract is still denied? Why can't I work?."
"Don't call master, too formal. You have to learn to familiarize yourself with me, learn to call with your language or whatever. If later you look stiff when with me, our play is easy to read" said Alex reminded that he must look like a real lover and must get used to it all to look natural.
"I. yes." nodded Sersi.
"Okay, answer your question earlier. I will continue to support you according to the obligations carried by husbands in general, because even though we only perform theatrics. But the marriage we're doing is genuine, and I'm going to list it on civil records. So we are legally married. So you deserve that."
"And business work. I forbid you, because what would people say if they knew that the wife of a billionaire had to work hard for money. I can still afford all your needs. Understand Sersi?."
"I. yeah. I understand." she replied.
"Okay, we'll have lunch first. From now on tomorrow onwards you don't have to work yes, oh yes I'll hand over a file containing some answers if you'll be asked by my papah when I take you to see him." Alex said as he cut up the steak in front of him, then ate it.
'what the hell is this?' inner Sersi muttered.
Sersi did not answer just nodding his head in understanding, he wanted to anger rebellious but what power. He had to do this, he ended up eating the food that had happened before him. Same with Alex, Sersi also began to eat the meat of his steak and a plate of spaghetti bolognese that seductive taste.

Flashback to the Sersi parents' house fire in Sicily..
"Adryan.." call John, his father came home from the hospital this morning.
Adryan, who was in his room, then came out of the room and came to the source of the sound. He also moved his wheelchair towards the middle of the house.
"Yes I'm there" Adryan replied.
When he arrived in the middle room, his father was looking at his mother Savira. His mother and father had returned home from the hospital. Adryan also approached his father and mother who are now sitting on the sofa in the middle room.
"Mom, thank goodness you can go home. There is no mother in the house. I just stay at home watching tv every day, can't do anything." Adryan lamented.
"Adryan, your mother has not fully recovered. Dad took her home because the cost of her treatment was very expensive. So I brought you home for outpatient care, at least your mother is now able to walk and fresher than before" John replied to his son.
"Yes Adryan, I'm fine now. A little more mother healed, just need a lot of rest. Poor father, you have to work hard to find the cost of expensive mother's treatment." Savira said with a smile towards Adryan.
"If I could walk, I would have helped my father work to help the mother's treatment" said Adryan sadly remembering he could not do anything, and felt only a burden on his parents. Feel useless.
"It's Adryan, it's okay. You've been protecting dad, you don't be. If there were no you would have been dead by Alfonso's men by that time." John comforts his son.
"But why do you hate Sersi. When we were little, my father and mother always gave the same affection to me and Sersi, but since then you have hated it and called it just a burden on your parents. Not that I am your burden, I am useless in this house. If mom and dad weren't like this, he wouldn't have left us." Adryan regretted the attitude of his parents to his sister Sersi.
"But because of him you've been protecting my father from the gunfire, he's guilty of your circumstances. And she's a very nice woman.."
"Dad, don't beat him. He didn't do anything, why mom and dad hated him so much. He's my only brother, why is he to blame. Adryan himself who ran towards the father for fear that the man killed the father." Adryan cut off the dust.
Feeling angry at his father who always said rude to Sersi. Adryan also harbored a million resentment and anger that was stirring, he chose to leave his parents and go to the room. Adryan was frustrated to feel that if he was very useless, only to trouble his parents and sister. He felt like a helpless and weak man.
After Adryan's death, Savira and John look at each other. Exploring the child's mere wayangnya emotions to them, because Adryan did not know that all this time he actually did not have a sister. Because Adryan does not know that Sersi is only John and Savira's adopted son who they adopted from a home on the border near the village.
****
The night began to approach midnight, the silence of the night made the atmosphere feel lonely and lonely accompany Adryan who is now not asleep as well.
He felt uneasy about not being able to sleep, because he thought about his life that felt a mess at the end of this. He was frustrated with all this to the point of making her feel very sad. And desperate as hell.
Until Adryan who was silent daydreaming of his fate, suddenly smelled a burning object that was smelled by his nose. Adryan furrowed his eyebrows in wonder, what a charred smell this was. Is your mom or dad cooking in the kitchen in the middle of the night.
Finally, out of curiosity, the smell of the increasingly rampant gosong entered his sense of smell and popped a puff of smoke from behind the door of his room, so Adryan also moved to a wheelchair intending to check where the smell of this charred.
After he managed to sit in his wheelchair, Adryan opened the door of his room and what he saw left him shocked and shocked.
"Mommy's dad, the tv cabinet's on fire. Curtains burn up, wake up mom dad!!" Shouted Adryan panicked to see the fire that had grown burning tv cabinets not far from his room. It has crept into curtains and other goods.
The sound of grit and the sound of a door boom from the back of the house made Adryan surprised, he felt that someone deliberately burned this house. Shortly after, John and Savira came out to Adryan who was still glued in front of his room sitting in a wheelchair because he was amazed.
"Dam!!" John shouted to his son.
"Thank God you're okay" Savira said, stroking her son's head.
"Let's go, the fire has spread. Before we burn the door, we have to get out. You wait here, I'll bring a wet blanket to cover you Adryan. Savira you wait here."
Savira nods and holds his son Adryan's wheelchair, while John enters Adryan to wet the blanket to cover Adryan protecting him from the heat of the fire.
John returns to Adryan and Savira and envelops Adryan and his wife.
"Let's rush out, the fire is already big. We're ahead hopefully to the front door" said John then gave instructions to Savira to follow him while pushing Adryan's wheelchair.
But when they got to the door, they were shocked by the circumstances they had not expected. It turned out that even in front of the door had been burned, and some other items had also been burned the roof also began to fall making their steps backward to avoid objects falling from the roof there.
"How about this, we're stuck. This house was burned down on purpose, John. I'm afraid this is your uncle again! We have to get out John I don't want to die in vain like this!" savira shouted at her husband.
"Neither, but surely if this is true, it is outrageous. Even though the company I've given completely, he's still vengeful."
"Come on John, get us out of here. I've been claustrophobic, smoke where and Adryan has fainted. We need to get him to the hospital." Savira said while crying confused as to how they got out of this dangerous situation.
"Yes, let's try the back road now. Come fast!" john takes over pushing Adryan's wheelchair and darts into the kitchen with his wife Savira.
But fateful when they just got to the kitchen, their gas cylinder exploded to make John, Savira, and Adryan who had fainted shocked. The explosion made the fire grow bigger and smoke more and more, their chests were both already suffocated. Savira, who had run out of oxygen, collapsed shortly after the explosion.
It made John sad and grabbed his wife's body lying on the floor.
"Savira. savira! Savira!!" John shouted to wake his wife who had fainted badly from inhaling too much smoke.
Desperate John could not get out of the house, as the whole room and part of the house were already almost completely burned. He decides to push Adryan into the bathroom in the kitchen and wet the blanket, to prevent the heat from entering his son's body.
"Hopefully you can survive Adryan, this wet blanket will hold you before it burns. The road is covered in fire, I'm sorry!" John said between his tears.
John closed the bathroom door, and approached his wife intending to take him to the front of the bathroom he used for Adryan. Damn, a piece of wood from above fell and hit John. He was crushed and some of his clothes burned, his consciousness began to disappear due to the heat that spread on his back. Gradually his vision began to blur, and he saw his wife still did not open her eyes until John was completely closed.
The fire was increasingly greedy to burn everything, until the fire department arrived and managed to extinguish the fire. When the fire department checked the debris of the house, one of the officers accidentally found Adryan in the kitchen bathroom. Fortunately Adryan was still given life, only he was in a state of fainting, lucky thanks to John covering him with a wet blanket he was not completely burned. Only his wheelchair burned a little bit of his tires, and the bottom of his legs.
Officers ran to take Adryan to the ambulance to take him to the ER room of the Hospital to provide first aid.
Flashback complete.

"Yes, I will memorize it sir" Sersi replied.
"What did you say!?".
"Eh, yes Alex" Sersi forgot he had to get used to changing their calls and language.
"Pacify yourself, practice acting. I want Papah not to be suspicious of your attitude, we should really look like lovers. Do not let papah suspect, that we are just a charade. Understood it?".
