Throne Heir

The 174 Eps

Not wanting to waste more time thinking, Rachel finally rushed to the door and opened it. Rachel's eyes widen, when she gets someone she knows as Antony's personal assistant to come see her specifically.

"You're not.."

"Yes, I'm the one who works as a personal assistant to young master Anton." Obviously the man was friendly.

"Yes hehe, but I'm sorry, what is there to do here?"

"I'm sorry if I was a little presumptuous, miss, but could you spare a little time for young master Anton today?"

"meaning? Ta, but as far as I know, there's no agenda meeting today with One Light Corp."

"That's true, miss, but, it's more of a personal matter. I see, if between the young lady and the young master, have a close enough relationship, even the last I know, young master Anton once put feelings on you and I am sure, it still feels so far."

"Sorry sir, I really don't understand what you're saying, can you just go straight to the point? Because by chance, I want to go too." Clearly Rachel yet with a gentle and friendly tone.

"Look, today is the birthday of young master Anton, as well as the day of his sister's death that he loved so much. During this time, he was always lonely, had no close friends, and did not get along so well with his parents. So, can you cheer him up, at least I want to give you a different birthday and it will be meaningful throughout his life."

Hearing that request that looked so sincere, made Rachel instantly stunned. He was really struck by great confusion, he considered Antony was his friend, even they have lately also started to get along like friends in general, he said, until pity arose when he heard the words of his personal assistant just now. But on the other hand, Rachel was so afraid that Arsen was angry when he found out about this.

"Ta, but... Why should I be the one?" Rachel asked again with the look on her face that looked clumsy.

"Only you are the only one who can make the young master smile loosely. I watched him for quite a while, young master is completely different when dealing with you."

"But I've..."

"Yes, I know you're married miss, so I've apologized for this. But please help me just this once, right now, young master is in the library, as usual, he always passes his birthday by just pensively in a room alone, he said, and it's been going on for years, there's really nothing special in his life. So can you help cheer her up??"

"Did Antony tell you to?" Rachel asked a little suspicious.

"No, miss, I'm here on my own initiative. I've been working for him for a long time, so young master Anton isn't just my boss."

Rachel went back into silence for a while, she did not see any lies from the eyes of the person who was now in front of her.

"If that's true, then what a pity Antony is, now, I understand why the other day he asked me to be his friend. I guess, there's nothing wrong with me comforting her, isn't giving someone happiness also a noble deed?" Rachel thought to herself.

Finally after a moment of thought, Rachel came to her decision to agree to join Antony's personal assistant.

Along the way, Rachel was mostly silent because she kept thinking.

"I'd better call Arsen, so he doesn't misunderstand." Rachel muttered as she began to reach for her phone.

However, when she just wanted to call, Rachel suddenly became hesitant, because she believed, Arsen would disagree and strictly forbid for her to meet with Antony.

"It's best not to, if you know he'll never even allow it." Her chirps again put her phone back in the bag.

"Darling, I'm sorry, it's just for a moment, I just want to cheer her up as a friend, I hope you understand." Rachel's murmured softly in heart.

Rachel tak sengaja melirik ke arah toko kue, lalu meminta supir untuk berhenti.

"What's wrong, miss? Is there a problem?" Ask the Assistant.

"Sangat aneh rasanya jika aku datang hanya dengan tangan kosong, aku tidak sengaja melihat toko kue, jadi aku ingin turun sebentar untuk membeli kue untuk bosmu." Jawab Rachel sembari tersenyum.

"Oh do I need to go down, miss?"

"Aaaa no need, as a friend I want to pick myself a birthday cake for her." Rachel then rushed down to the cake shop which was right on the side of the road.

The black luxury sedan that Rachel was riding, finally managed to bring it to the front of Antony's library lobby. Rachel slowly came down with her eyes glancing around, looking at the surroundings.

Rachel stepped calmly into the magnificent library accompanied by Antony's assistant. The Assistant continued to lead him to walk through various rooms until finally he arrived in front of a door that was then tightly closed.

"It was in this room that the young master spent his time every time his birthday and his sister's death came." Clearly again.

Rachel also fell silent while looking at the door that was quite high in size. Rachel's forehead frowned when she realized she knew this room.

"I know this room, I've been in it." Reveal Rachel calmly.

"really?? Are you sure??" He asked what seemed so shocked as if he could not believe it.

"Why is your face like that? As if I don't believe what I said."

"Mom, it's not so, miss, if I don't have anyone allowed inside, including me who's been working with the young master for a long time, never know how to get inside."

"Huh?! Did ya? Then, can I call myself lucky to be the only foreigner who knows how to be in this room?" Rachel also chuckled a little.

"Not lucky, rather you are the woman specialised by the young master."

Hearing that, Rachel once again fell silent with a clumsy feeling.

"Eemm all right, then how do we get inside? Are you sure he won't get angry if we do this??" Rachel asked a little doubtfully.

"I had access, but even so, I still did not have the courage to go inside, having already received an ultimatum from the young master in order to never set foot in this room before getting an order."

"Oh, so it seems. Emm all right, let's do it," Rachel smiled again.

The assistant rushed out the cake Rachel had given from the box, then gave it to Rachel. He also attached all the cards on the side of the door, the card turned out to serve as access to enter into.

"Please enter miss." The assistant opens the door and invites Rachel to enter.

"Then what about you?"

"I'd better wait here."

"Is that so? Emm well, I hope you're not setting me up." Said Rachel who then started to slowly enter the room.

The room was still the same as when Rachel first entered, still looking so amazing. The sound of rustling artificial waterfalls in the middle of the room was heard in the ear to make anyone who was in it feel calm like being in the wild.

Rachel continued to slowly enter the room even deeper, her eyes glanced back and forth to find Antony's whereabouts. After a few steps, now Rachel's steps immediately began to stop, when finally found Antony who was sitting behind her.

For a moment, Rachel seemed to be swept away in the sadness felt by Antony, somehow it could be so, but suddenly she felt if both eyes began to glaze over.

Rachel segere turned her head up, so that her flooded tears would not spill on her cheeks. Then he let out a short sigh, and again brought up his smile, then began to sing a soft birthday song.

"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday, happy birthday, happy birthday Tony."

Hearing the singing of a voice that was familiar to him, made Antony suddenly turn to look behind him. His eyes were perfectly rounded, he seemed to be made so dumbfounded when he found Rachel standing behind him with a smile.

Antony immediately rubbed his eyes, initially thinking loneliness was starting to make him hallucinate.

"Why does this feel so real?" He said alone.

Hearing that, made Rachel smile even more and step back to approach him.

"It's real, not just imagination, let alone hallucinations." Rachel.

Antony who was still so astonished, slowly began to rise from his seat with a look of eyes that seemed to be unable to look at Rachel.

"This, is this real?" Ask again while holding both shoulders Rachel, looking at Rachel from toe to head to make sure again.

"Happy birthday Antony Yue, I wish you can be happy in your life, always." Say Rachel again while thrusting the cake in front of her.

Antony was speechless, looking at the birthday cake Rachel had given him.

"You, you bought this?"

"Yes, why? Doesn't it suit your taste? Eem then sorry, this happened so suddenly, it made me have absolutely no preparation." Rachel was brief.

"No! i, I like it, love it." Antony smiled and grabbed the cake.

Antony still seems so speechless with the arrival of Rachel appears suddenly and unexpectedly. Making it still difficult for her to speak, all she could do at that moment was look at Rachel.

"Hey, why look at me like that? Your view, indirectly as if you are intimidating me. You didn't?"

"I'm sorry, sorry, me, I, I'm still so speechless about this. Come sit down." Antony stuttered to allow Rachel to sit down.

They blew out the candles together and cut and ate the cake together. A lot of things they talked about at the time, especially how Rachel could know Antony's birthday when he never published it. Rachel's arrival made her mood change instantly, now she smiles a lot and can even laugh freely because of Rachel.

"Thank you very much." Antony said suddenly with his gaze so sad.

"thank you? Wh-wh-what for? I haven't even given you any presents." Rachel was confused.

"Thank you for coming here, and changing everything especially my mood." Antony's face again turned into a look so sad.

Making Rachel who initially continued to smile, slowly began to fade her smile when she saw Antony who suddenly looked back softly, she said,

"The years I spent past my birthday alone, without any celebration, even my parents often forget this day. They're so busy, I think even now, they forget they still have a child." Antony said with a smile, but his smile this time was not the same as the previous smile, looking very clean.

"Just today, my sister, my beloved sister, is leaving me forever."

Antony again grabbed the picture frame that he had been looking at since. Then show it to Rachel.

"He's Ananta, my sister."

Rachel also smiled faintly looking at the face of Ananta who looked so sweet with a smile that seemed so cheerful.

"He looks just like you." Tell Rachel slowly.

Antony was smiling.

"Yes, a lot of people say that, it's just that, he has the opposite attitude of me. If I have such a calm demeanor, then Ananta, he is a person who is too grumpy and careless."

"Eeeemm, if I may know, how did he die?" Rachel asked very carefully.

"He had an accident that left him dead on the spot." Clearly Antony with his gaze starting to empty.

Rachel fell silent again, feeling sorry for asking the thing that made Antony even more sad.

"I'm sorry for making you remember it again, I'm sorry. I should've come here to make you happy." Rachel also looks sad.

"Absolutely not, I'm glad you asked me that, it signifies that you care enough about my life." Antony finally smiled.

Rachel smiled faintly.

"So, is there really no gift for me?"

"Huh?! Emm prize?" Rachel was beginning to look confused.

"Yes a gift, even if I have everything I need, but it feels even more special when someone gives something as a gift."

"Ta, but I haven't prepared it yet. Emm all right, now tell me, what do you want?"

"Can I ask for anything?" Antony asked who started looking at Rachel so closely.

"Yes at least ask for something I can do, don't ask for things I can't."

"I'm sure you can do it if you like."

"What's that?"

"But before you have to promise to grant whatever I ask."

"Eemm well, since it's your birthday, then ask for anything, I'll give it, but remember what I said before. Ask me what I can do, don't ask for the impossible."

...Seriate......
