Aslan still vividly remembers the story Lucas told him about his father's half-sister, Alice. Alice was married to a man who used to be her father's confidant, Marlo. But then it turned out that Lucas found out it was Marlo who betrayed his father, but because Lucas was very young at the time, he has yet to find any evidence of Marlo's crimes. But certainly, Alonso is Marlo's man.It could be that Marlo was the mastermind behind all of Alonso's crimes.But Marlo is indeed cunning, as shown by his face when Aslan saw him in court. Marlo was a bad man who was good at making himself look kind in public.Aslan knew he had to be careful with him. Marlo and his wife are also after the Kendrik family fortune, especially the inheritance from Lucas and Aslan's father. His father had built the company from scratch, and it had grown in Lucas' hands. Aslan doesn't understand why they're so eager to take it all, since they shouldn't have any share at all.Marlo already had another business that wa
Not quite preoccupied with studying for his exams, suddenly something very troublesome came up.That night Aslan thought that after dinner he would go back to studying for a while and then get a good night's sleep.But suddenly Alice arrived with her daughter, Ashley. They were both suddenly very kind and friendly. Lucas had gone home by then, so Aslan thought they were pretending to be nice because Lucas was there.But Aslan was wrong.Aslan knew Alice and Ashley's other intentions, because when Aslan invited Dave to help him cook a special dinner to welcome Alice and Ashley, which was actually forced by Sarah, Alice instead asked Ashley to help him.Sarah asked Aslan to cook because she wanted to show off a little if her son was good at cooking, so that Alice could shut up and know that Sarah's sons far exceeded Alice's son who was nothing.But Alice uses the opportunity to get Ashley close to Aslan.So Aslan had to be alone with Ashley in the kitchen. It wouldn't have been a proble
Aslan jumped at the annoying voice, even more surprised at the girl's appearance. Ashley came in a sexy, sheer nightgown."I'm the one that should have asked, what are you doing here in that outfit?"Ashley didn't answer, she just walked over to Aslan and sat next to him. Then she looked at the book Aslan was studying."What are you studying from a book like that?" Ashley asked."It's a math book and I'm memorizing formulas," Aslan replied, trying not to feel upset or think bad thoughts. That way his mood would improve and he could absorb all the memorization well."Such things are very boring and anyway calculus and logarithms are not necessary in our lives, as long as we can count money well that's enough."Aslan nodded, "You're right, it might not be necessary in your life, but it could be useful for my life in the future. Who knows, I might become a math teacher."Ashley gave Aslan a look that was hard to explain, and then she asked, "You really think you'd be an unimportant math
"Hei! What's wrong with you?"Aslan turned to Kyle who had been sitting in front of him for who knows how long. Aslan was sitting in the corner of the cafeteria after gym class, he was alone because he wanted to be alone.Well, not really want it, Debby didn't want to accompany him as usual and Aslan thought she just wanted to be with her girl friends. Lately, after Debby had gotten thinner and prettier, many friends had approached her. Aslan was happy that Debby had lots of girl friends, and wasn't alone like she used to be. It was just that Aslan was afraid that Debby would only be used, because Debby was too kind."I'm fine, what are you doing here?" Aslan asked, sucking down the remaining half of the banana milk.Kyle looked at the other three empty banana milks boxs, as well as the box of donuts, which had four but was now down to one."If you want the donuts, just take it, I'm already full," Aslan added."How can you not be full if you eat this much," Kyle said, pointing at all
Contrary to his claims, Jaden was not strong enough to walk to the orphanage. Aslan decided to stop for a moment so Jaden could rest. They took a break while buying food for the orphanage children, while sitting and drinking fresh young coconut ice in the middle of the hot sun.It was around three o'clock in the afternoon, but the sun was still eager to shine on the earth. They walked for a while and were already drenched in sweat."Here you go," a woman handed Aslan his food order."Thank you," Aslan said, taking the order and then sharing it with Jaden so they could carry it together."I'm still tired," Jaden complained, but he stood up and walked after Aslan."Just a little bit more, cheer up!" Aslan exclaimed, which made Jaden regret following Aslan.Jaden was a homeboy, and when he went out, he never walked. Jaden also had mediocre grades for sports, because he was lazy to move.He should have suggested a taxi ride to Aslan earlier."Is it still take a long time?" Jaden complaine
"How did you know their bodies were there?" Lucas asked for the umpteenth time, and for the umpteenth time again, Aslan shook his head."I don't know, let's just say something whispered to me, that something was wrong in that place. I happened to be on the cotton road, and... well, it happened." Aslan replied.Of course, Aslan's words didn't satisfy Lucas or the policeman that helping them, but they couldn't force Aslan if he didn't know anything."No problem, we will immediately check the cctv from the house there, fortunately they have cctv for their garden." said the police.Indeed, no one dared to occupy around the landfill, there was only one house that had a large aeroponic garden. It was not too close to the dump, but anyone would pass by the house to go to the dump."Can we trust you guys with this case?" Aslan asked, sounding very distrustful of the police officers. But no matter what, during Aslan's time at the orphanage, he'd often come across cops who were easily bribed wi
"What should we talk about first?" asked Aslan in a soft tone, actually he was also a little nervous because he was afraid of Dave's reaction if he found out that his parents were gone.However, without a hint of guilt, Lucas' next words left Aslan scratching his head."Let's talk about what if we adopt Dave, mom would love it.""Wait a minute, we have to say first if -""I already told Dave about his parents while you were in the shower, didn't I Dave?"Aslan looked down at Dave who was just smiling slightly, the smile looked so sad, even his eyes looked teary but Lucas didn't notice at all."Lucas! You should have said it right!" Aslan said, glaring at Lucas who was casually snacking on fried chicken."I said it right, we had to because -""Enough, Lucas! Stop talking, Dave is still a child, don't equate him with you who is an adult, his feelings are much more sensitive."Aslan inwardly cursed his brother's rigid and ignorant attitude, how could he not be careful in talking to a chi
Debby pulled Aslan's arm to get into her room, then closed the door tightly.Aslan waited silently for an explanation from Debby, but until Aslan had been sitting on the pink sofa for a minute, Debby hadn't explained and was just pacing."Ehem!" Finally Aslan cleared his throat because he was impatient with Debby's explanation, he even pulled the girl's arm to sit with him. But because Debby lost her balance, she fell into Aslan's lap.The girl's face turned red with embarrassment, then she lowered her head, not wanting to look at Aslan who was grinning.Aslan pulled Debby's waist closer to him, and also to keep her from running away."Now, can you explain how you found out about Ashley's father?"Debby who couldn't run away had no choice but to answer honestly."Actually I used to take piano lessons and from there I got to know Ashley, she always looked down on me and could never accept when I was better at playing piano than her, she always brought up my fat body to beat me. That's
