Vortice In Vendetta

Chapter 12: Adelio Adelyn

His real name is Aaron Ryan Harrison. She is the only sister of Lady Angela Bianca Harrison, owner of the Harrison Group, which was acquired by Goksel twenty years ago. His identity has been disguised by his brother to protect him from the family's great enemy, Sanjaya Goksel.

What Mr. Goksel knows is that Arumi is the only daughter and heir to Harrison who was born beautiful and smart. It is like the goddess. 'Perfect' that's the right thing to describe its visual elegance.

It was a guarantee Mr. Goksel put in before playing a dirty game to take down the Harrison family business and slaughter all family members.

Not only that, he even made Lady Angela his wife and placed her on the throne as an empress.

At first the tenderness and affection of Lady Angela to him has succeeded in making him fall in love and begin to erode the personality of the devil in him. But because of the presence of Clara who added poison as well as thorns in their household, the belief was faded. He even threw away all his children and made them pieces of dust floating in the streets.

The existence of Lio around him was also not a coincidence. The reason why Lady Angela was so easy to leave the demon residence was Lio's success to infiltrate as an enemy in a blanket. He endangered himself several times, in order to make him a confidant of Mr. Sanjaya. He did the same to Jea.

All the affection he showed all along was fake. He does not know his brother's whereabouts at this time. And he also does not know about the existence of the twins Jeana and Rayden. He only thought that they were part of the demon flesh blood that had to be purified.

He was determined not to involve the children. Even though the reason for using Jea was because Sanjaya loved him so much. But deep down, he just wanted to cleanse the demon blood that was flowing in the girl's body.

"You love him so much Bang. Then why did you keep him out of your reach?" lio asked as soon as the man handed over his flesh blood to Lio.

"He's my life that's left. I can't risk making him a victim of my greed all along. You know, of all my kids, it's the one that reminds me most of her mother. The woman I love most in this world. They're so similar. My heart became weak with him. And that must not happen." he said in tears as he handed over his only daughter who was also a fragment of his life.

He knows how cunning Clara is. He also knew he had hurt Angela. Therefore he wanted to keep Jea at his best as Angela's replacement .but by keeping the girl by his side, then it meant that he would deliver the girl in danger, That's why he gave it to Lio who at that time he trusted.

Jea is a vivid depiction of Angela's image behind the painting. His face looks even brighter and more beautiful than his mother. She was far more beautiful than the most beautiful goddess ever born on this earth, but Adelio had not realized it at all. His job was just to keep the demon's descendant away and keep him away from the fire. She helped her grow into a kind, intelligent and loving girl.

"This girl later will give the toughest punishment for her father" said Lio smiling meaningfully.

Although there was a grudge, but also a feeling of affection as soon as he grasped the hand of the little girl who smiled like someone to him. The look on his face depicted a smile. His warmth, his laughter, but it was a pity that he had been blinded by vengeance. He only raised the malakat as a weapon for his enemy.

"Make her! Akeno's family is the best family that can protect her. I can't risk him being in danger."

With all the mature plans, Adelio stuck the thorns faster on the fragile petals. He sent Yudha to destroy the plan early. A labile adolescence is the perfect time to end that perfect marriage.

The less you protect the girl, the better. Because with that, Sanjaya will be provoked to intervene by itself. The wedding was the best opportunity she thought. He could destroy the demon with two stones at once.

He would easily get away from her under his torn self-esteem. A father who fails to protect his wife and child. He has let his eldest son go with his beloved wife. And now he also had to feel the loss of his beloved daughter under his own protection.

A father who fails as punishment becomes a failed husband. The perfect idea but unfortunately because he did not know that he also involved his own flesh and blood. He never opened his eyes to the resemblance of the girl and her brother. It was the flesh of his brother. The man he was fighting for. He really acted out of reason.

"Jea, the cafe is crowded. Brother asked Yudha to help you move?" lio's fishing rod in front of Aksa instantly made the young man's face flushed red.

"There's a bang." Prevent Aksa.

"But you are only calm if Yudha guards Jeana. I know you are her husband. But you also have to remember that your own brother is a witness to your marriage contract. Now how can I trust my sister to you." he snapped.

The three of them are currently gathering at Lio's cafe to discuss the move and ask Lio's permission for it. This was already a tradition because for Jea, Lio was the only guardian she had.

"Jea doesn't mind. Bang Yudha with Kak Aksa will be able to cooperate later, right, Kak?" Jea tightly grasped Aksa's hand and stroked her gently. He gave the young man a code to be patient and to trust him.

He only smiled at Aksa while occasionally stealing glances at Lio as a sign that they were already tied to each other. He just wanted Lio to also involve Aksa. But it is still not easy to change her brother's beliefs.

He seemed to be standing between two chasms where he had to choose which side to fall on. Because after he fell, there was no turning back.

"Abang was just worried" she calmed Aksa down as soon as they were in a taxi on the way home.

"You know, you can't accept this wedding yet. Papa can't take me yet. We still have to fight even harder Aksa." he said, who was only seen as empty by Aksa's eyes.
