The Sovereign of the Heart (Bern & Renata)

Chapter 48

Max immediately stepped on the brakes of his car when a vehicle suddenly came in right in front. It was fortunate that he was not speeding at such a high speed, so an accident he could quickly avoid.

"What the fuck is this guy. Have they gone crazy suddenly stopping the car in front of another oncoming vehicle? Find dead or what?" grouse Max while removing the seatbelt on the body. Immediately he got out of the car and then walked quickly to the strange car.

Tok tok tok tok

"Excuse me. Can you come out for a second? We need to talk!"

In the car, Cio was smiling indistinctly while staring at the irritated face of his father Renata. Beside him was Karl who just kept silent not heeding the sound of the window knocking.

"Yow, man, don't be so indifferent. Get out of the way to see Mr. Max. There!" expel Cio.

"You just." Lazy Karl replied. "I'm not in the mood to talk to anyone else."

"That's your style. Then what do you think of me, huh? An invisible creature?"

"Don't be noisy!"

"Yes, get out quickly. Poor Mr. Max. He'll sulk!"

Karl finally looked. He stared long at his father Renata before finally forcing Cio to come out with him.

Seeing the car door that began to open made Max immediately retreated to the back. And in the next second Max was made to swallow as soon as he saw who the owner of the car.

Karl's? The cio? Hah, why are they suddenly blocking my path? I don't remember fighting in business. What's up, huh?

Karl who heard Mr. Max's thoughts just silently let. He then brushed off the hand of Cio who wanted to embrace his shoulder.

"Sob-wool!"

"I don't like being touched!"

"You haven't touched a woman yet. Once it feels guaranteed your bird stands straight up!" seloroh Cio was upset to see this attitude of his cousin.

"Can you be serious?" Karl raised a flat gaze at Cio who even spoke unheard of. It feels so irritated.

"OK I'm not kidding anymore."

Immediately after saying so Cio put on a very flat expression when going to greet Mr. Max.

"Hello Mr. Max, good night. Sorry if we greeted you in a slightly different way,"

"Good night back, Mr. Cio, Young Master Karl," said Max rather nervously facing these two men. "I'm sorry, if I may know why you're facing me like this? Did we get into trouble before?"

"No, there's absolutely no problem going on between us. Relax," said Cio as he shook his hand. He then cleared his throat while glancing into the car. "How about we just talk in the car? It feels a little strange that we are chatting in the middle of the road like this. Wanna?"

"Why do I have to be in the car?"

"Follow it. Or you'll lose someone."

Cio is eager to hit Karl on the head who threatens Mr. Max to get in their car. Cio's effort to arrange a polite image in front of this man, even damaged so easily by Karl. Really yeah.

Max thought both men wanted to do something bad to him. But once he got into the car, his eyes immediately widened wide to find someone who was sitting with his hands tied and his mouth attached to the plaster. And that man is his own wife.

"NANDYRA!" squealing Max was shocked. Immediately he removed the plaster that covered his wife's mouth then helped open the rope in hand. After that Max immediately pulled the collar of Cio's shirt from behind. "What have you done to my wife huh! You kidnapped her?!"

"Ck, can you not play rough, sir? My clothes are very expensive. Please appreciate!" namel Cio while wearing seatbelt on his body. He had absolutely no intention of beating up this brash man. Lazy.

"Main rude did you say? Yakk, those words are much more suitable for those of you who have kidnapped and tortured my wife. I know you come from a distinguished family, but that doesn't mean I'll just be quiet to see my wife treated arbitrarily by you. You're a brash!" amuk Max with eyes glistening furiously. He no longer cared about the family background of these two people. One thing is certain. Max did not accept it.

"Just blame your wife for refusing to tell us who Renata really is. That's why he ended up like that!" said Karl coldly. He then looked back, staring flatly at the woman who was crying as she pleased. "Mrs, we asked you nicely. Why won't you answer? And what we're asking isn't about your willingness to die fast. We just want to know why the wounds on Renata's body could not exist. What's really going on, hm?"

Max's hand on Cio's shirt was immediately released as soon as Karl alluded to the wound on his daughter's body. As soon as he froze, it was unexpected that Cio would ask them this.

"I take it as an answer that Renata is your twin sister!" karl said he got the answer he wanted. "Now you tell me where all the wounds on Amora's body went. I know you're the mastermind behind all this."

Max and Nandira hold hands together as soon as they are frowned upon by Karl. Frantic, frightened, anxious, all of it mixed into one within them. Really, this is very unexpected. They are confused as to what to answer.

"You don't be afraid. Our goal in asking questions like this is for the sake of the happiness of Justin and Renata as well. We have no intention of taking Renata away and returning her to the Shin family. We're not that bad" said Cio, trying to persuade in a subtle way. Who knows how it works. Aye, right?

"Really?"

"of course. All of those decisions were in Renata's hands. If he wants to tell his father, let him say it. We don't want to interfere."

Cio was breathing. He then looked at Karl who was just silently listening.

"Amora used to be my cousin's girlfriend. Three years ago he was in a car accident and his body was found a few days later. My cousin is dying, then leaving the country. And some time ago he came back here, then accidentally met with Justin and Renata!" cio had to tell me about Bern. He wanted this matter to be able to find a bright spot soon. "I hope you will tell me the details of what happened to Renata three years ago. Don't worry because we don't have bad intentions for your daughter and grandchildren."

"Are you not going to hurt and take Renata and Justin away from us?" tanya Nandira made sure.

"of course. It's possible that we separated them from you despite the fact that Justin is part of our family" Cio replied.

"W-what? Part of your family? Meaning what?"

"Makanya tell me first why the wounds on Amora's body can be all gone. Only then will I tell you who Justin really is. The word says we do barter. Okay?"

Is Justin Bern's son, right? If that's true, it means I have no more room to lie. Free. Fighting against the Ma family was an impossible thing to do. Gosh darn.

Karl's eyes immediately closed when he heard the contents of Madam Nandira's mind. Answer is in the key. Renata is Amora, the poor girl who went missing three years ago.

"Mrs, when are you going to tell us? My stomach is heartburn waiting for you to talk!" cio's getting impatient.

"Em well I'll tell you the truth. Please keep this a secret from anyone. I don't want to lose my daughter!" sahut Nandira asks Cio and Karl to keep secret what he will tell.

"OKAY. This secret is safe in both of our hands!"

After that Karl and Cio listened to the story of Mrs Nandira carefully. They were curious as to why the wounds on the woman's body could disappear without a trace.

Bern, I hope after this you'll give me a chance to talk. Three years ago I didn't touch Amora at all. What happened wasn't what you thought it was because at the time I came to see Amora was to apologize to her. I had no intention of harming him at all. Really am.
