Lucas lowered his head in shame, where did it not deserve it? If the man who didn't deserve to be there was right, that's Lucas ' belief. What this beautiful woman said is true. He skipped dinner only to spend time decorating a hotel room that ended up being thrown out into the street.
“Do you remember Luna Chasen?” The woman asked again with a new topic.
Lucas's body felt the blood flow stopped pumping the heart. "Lu-Na-Cha-Sen? Luna Chasen!”
Surprised, Lucas paused for a moment to exhale again calmly.
“Luna Chasen, the girl who is my junior in class?” he's starting to notice the details of the facial features the woman in front of him has now.
Luke almost forgot to close his eyes. “Where are your glasses?” he used to wear glasses all the time when he was in high school. He knew his younger brother who was always considered cute and geeky in their school days.
“I had myopia surgery, and I did it. I thought you had forgotten me, you don't remember my face?”
Luna deliberately made a sullen facial expression to pretend to be sad.
"Ah.” Lucas scratched his neck. “You changed so much, I even thought I was dating a famous model.”
Lucas's smile expands, between the pain in Harry's former punch. “Are you okay with your condition? Who would dare do that to you?” Luna grimaced in pain seeing some bruises appear to adorn Lucas ' face.
Lucas smiled faintly. “Someone I know.” His smile implies sadness. “So how do we discuss your reasons for greeting this shabby person.”
“I'm in trouble and need help. Because it's my life and death.” Luna's gaze looks serious.
What the woman needs from a pizza delivery man looks like, So sad look displayed Lucas.
“I need a husband.”
Lucas frowned. “Husband, but I'm not the one who opened the services of a dating agency, I don't know much either.”
Lucas's smile was bitter. “Even today I just broke up with my boyfriend because he cheated on me.”
Luna clapped her hands once. “Wow, great news.”
"Ha?” he's like a deaf man.
***
Lucas walks into a rundown house in an alley in a daze, Luna invites him to cooperate. But what kind of cooperation keeps them in marital status?
“You're already home, why are you home so early.” His mother's voice was surprised at Lucas ' arrival. “Aren't you staying with your girlfriend? How's Bianca, is she happy with your gift.”
Both ended up sitting on rickety chairs. The sound of the chair was a little weathered adding sound between their conversations.
“Why is your condition like this?”
Lize couldn't hide her worry for her son even though he was old enough to take care of himself. ” I'm all right, I just didn't get to see Bianca today, I'm a pickpocket, " he answered lying so smoothly.
Lize nodded understanding. “You go into the room, I'll deliver the medicine box immediately sleep after that.”
No response from Lucas.
“No matter what happens, at least you're safe.” That's what Lize said before Lucas disappeared behind the door.
Their house is not so spacious, even if you enter the house, their guests can see the living room and kitchen at the same time even two doors of their private rooms are immediately visible.
"Hmm.” Sigh. “I should have been able to give you a decent life as your father's biological son.” Lize looked at Lucas ' closed door full of regret.
Lize shows up in her son's room to focus on treating Lucas. “Does she know you're hurt?” Lize treats bruises carefully. Although it still produced a sick cry on Lucas ' face.
His eyes glanced elsewhere. “I didn't tell him.”
Lize hit her son's hand to complain.
“You are lovers, you have to tell each other so that your communication is good. What beautiful woman would accept you if you weren't Bianca.” Omel Lize, judge the son.
That's right, Bianca is a beautiful woman who would accept it just to be a backup. Now it's getting rich man immediately ran into the arms of another man.
Lize's worried face looks like she loves Bianca, but what if in fact, Bianca is not as good as her mother knows?
“Son, I want your relationship with Bianca to be harmonious, she is a woman who is always with you.”
Lucas hugged his mother strongly. “Sorry, sorry ... Mom, actually... .”
“I think you're really tired. You rest."Cut Lize thinks her son is disappointed not to be able to meet Bianca, because of pickpocketing. She thinks her son Lucas just needs to be honest with Bianca so as not to disappoint the beautiful woman whose name is now starting to rise.
Lize moved from her son's room and immediately came out with a medicine box. From where Lucas was sitting, he could hear the creak of the door of the next room that his mother had entered into her room.
“I have a hard time talking to my mom about this."Shut Up Lucas. His mother was mistaken about Lucas ' true intentions but on the other hand, she was still thinking about the right time to tell him.
***
In the morning Lize was already looking for a payphone. He had already memorized Bianca's number. Lize waited for the call in the glass booth until the phone picked up.
[Hello, who is this?] shouts the person on the other side of the call.
The light was finally lifted as well. Lize smiled excitedly.
“Bianca, it's me Lize.”
There was a lackluster hum from the telephone receiver. I think it's because Bianca has just woken up.
“Do you know what happened last night to Luke? " he said. I'm here to tell you that he can't be with you because he got in trouble for pickpocketing.”
Lize explained that the purpose of her future son-in-law was not to be upset because Lucas's condition failed to meet her. I don't know if my son was raped by that woman.
The Voice of the call on the other side turned into the voice of another unknown person by Lize.
[Is this the poor man's mother?]
“Who is this? Where's Bianca.”
[You mean my girlfriend? By the way, don't you know your son is lying? He broke up with Bianca because your family was poor.]
Lize did not expect to hear the mockery of the figure half-slamming the receiver of the payphone.
The room is a little shabby not because of irregular items but because shabby walls seem less maintained adding to the dirty impression.
Lucas awoke that morning to hear a cell phone call disturbing his sleep.
Know the number that appears on the call screen. Lucas picked it up. Show respect to the owner of the place where he works.
“Hello, boss, Good Morning.”
[Where Are You Now?]
“Today my schedule is off, what does the boss want me to get in today?”
[Oh ... I just wanted to let you know that you don't have to come in tomorrow because a new employee is replacing you.]
Luke listened intently to his master's words.
"But—“
The call had already been interrupted, after a unilateral dismissal made Lucas ' morning even more gray.
Lucas hit the middle of the bed she was sitting on, squeezing her hair roughly. “Why, why do I have to be like this!”
Lucas felt his world shattered into pieces. Even the pain of yesterday night has not healed.
“What if I knew."Lucas can't imagine his mother having to go back to work as hard as she used to.
Lucas came out of his small room. He is still in shock after getting the news of his dismissal. Trying to step towards the sofa, also the only chair in their living room. The sound of the door was quite clearly audible at a distance of only two meters from where Lucas was sitting, the door was already open. Showing the figure of a middle-aged woman who still looks young. "From anywhere—" "Why, actually, what's wrong with you and Bianca, why can she be with another man?" Lize pushed her son back into a sitting position, she was seen demanding an answer from Lucas.Did you know that we broke up?' he thought with doubt. 'Or have you seen Bianca with Harry?'"Can speak so. Do you know anything?" asks Lucas carefully."I just got off the phone. I heard Bianca's voice with another man. He said You and Bianca broke up, answer me." With a trembling voice, his eyes were filled with anxiety.Lucas is down. "Yes, we broke up. She had an affair with Harry."Lily fell to the floor. "How could it
His eyes blinked as he regained consciousness. Lize can now see herself lying weak in a room she can know the hospital inpatient room with a separate room where she is alone as a patient in the room. His gaze searches for the whereabouts of Lucas, his son. The adult male figure had not yet realized Lize had woken up from her long stupor.Lize called Lucas, startling her son from a daydream from earlier. "Lucas, where is this? Why can be placed in an expensive room, " he said transfixed.Lucas swiftly approached Lize's Gurney. "Calm down Mom. This room has already been paid for by someone."Lize woke up and almost jumped from the bed she was in. "What! Who paid for this? This place is expensive, but I've been good enough. We better go home soon, you're not enough to pay the debt, " cried Lize uneasily, she was agitated. "Calm down, this is all that pays my wife," Lucas answered honestly.Liza glared at Lucas' strange answer. "Did you start fantasizing after the breakup? Or do you go b
"Patric he is a greedy man. When your father Harrelson pioneered the LH Tower and Patric was the one who had been wrongly trusted by your father to take care of his business," Lize said starting to open the story. He continued with a strong feeling."Patric corrupts and makes problems that begin to arise in the business that your father has until it is almost on the verge of collapse, because of his actions. Your father didn't know who the rat was in his office. After your father's efforts repaired the company and began to rise again. Patric even repeated throwing tantrums and again lied to your father. Your father must have almost been fooled again by Patric. Because he finally finds out who Patric is, a selfless man."Lucas listened to his mother's story with bated breath. I think he was involved in the tension faced by his late father and mother at that time."After that, your father just found out that his adoptive sister, whom he had worked hard to consider family, also believed
The car door opened slowly, and a man came out of it. The man is dressed in a neat black suit with a white shirt and a dark blue tie. The black leather shoes looked clean and well-groomed. His face showed calmness and confidence as if he was used to this kind of situation. Going to an event under the guise of a family meeting is just a mode of covert business meetings and show-offs, making him lazy in fact. One of the mandatory guests is none other than Luna and the important figure this time—by bringing Lucas along with him—will be the first debut for Lucas to show Luna that she has not chosen the wrong partner. Their hands interlocked after they got out of the vehicle and let the valet parking their car into place. "Are you ready?" Luna whispered next to her eyebrows. Makeup blood with maroon lipstick, her eyebrows are styled in such a way as an arrow bow. Further strengthening the character of Luna's beautiful face so that it looks like a female alpha. No less charming whe
08 GMHe looked at Hugo with a strained expression. He knew Hugo, was in the vicinity. Lucas doesn't want to see her, especially for now."What is it, Lucas? You look worried, " he said with a caring tone. Luna is unaware of Hugo's presence there but notices Lucas looking agitated.Lucas took a deep breath before replying, "Hugo is here, and I don't want to see him."Luna sensed her new husband's uneasiness with an attentive look.The initiative from Luna immediately grabbed Lucas ' large body hugging him tightly. As they embrace, Luna whispers in Lucas ' ear, "We can do it, Lucas. We are strong together."Sounds sweet for Lucas as he welcomes Luna's warm embrace.They silently smiled through the tension just now. Luna couldn't help but smile behind Lucas ' body.Hugo just passed a cursory look towards the couple Luna and Lucas.Lucas's face looks tense having to cross paths with Hudo. The man who almost knew Lucas's whereabouts probably didn't, because they hadn't seen each other fo
“I agree with you sir, if I were you I would also be unsure of a stranger claiming to be me," Lucas said he agreed with the principles of this man, it was not wrong for the man to be trusted by his late father.Lucas took out a simple ring from his pocket. A flat ring with a hexagon-shaped gem in the middle as decoration.There is nothing special about cheap jewelry if it is not observed more closely. But the lawyer's Haggard eyes saw the details inside the ring.Familiar writing. “LH-Cadd."Muttered Odde.His fingers tightly grasped Lucas's father's Ring of remembrance.“You're right, that boy... "Okay," said Ode, looking at the two of them.“Are you ready to take the risk, son?”Odde already predicts in any way, if one day he will face the child of his acquaintance."Harrelson Capriccho," muttered the name of his old comrade then looked at the fellow youth in front of him.“Can I get my rights as the rightful heir?” Not a question but a statement from Lucas Steady.Odde also smiled a
Lucas and Odde walked out of the LH Tower building with their heads held high, filled with different thoughts in their heads.Everything has been planned by Odde, even Lucas's arrival today is one of the milk of the middle-aged man's plans. Although the younger ith to come to the surface at first.Odde himself is a figure who has had a brilliant career as a lawyer, where he handled various large and complex cases until Odde decided to retire before meeting Lucas. He felt that he had contributed enough in the world of law and one incident involving Lucas's father made Odde decide to take a break from the world he had almost half his life. Although he has long been inactive in the court daily, his knowledge of the law remains sharp, and he is still a respected figure in the legal community. When they reach the lobby, Lucas feels a little scared, this is the first time he's faced with Patric—the man who caused his father's death—tense and a little fear inherent in his feelings.Amid hi
Hudo sped through the bustling city in his car.That day, he decided to visit his father's office, Patric, who was an important person there. Upon arriving at the skyscraper where his father's office was located, Hudo felt something was amiss."What's going on?" he asked the person on his right. Hudo's assistant glanced at the crowd but didn’t know either."Sorry, sir, I also don't know what's happening. It's better we go inside immediately." His assistant suggested, allowing his superior to go ahead first.Many reporters were gathered in front of the building, their cameras and microphones ready to capture every moment.He stepped out of his car and was immediately surrounded by journalists shouting questions about "rights usurpation.""What do they mean?" Hudo thought uncomfortably about the questions being thrown at him.Hudo, confused, tried to find a way into the building. "What do you mean? What rights are you talking about?" Hudo asked, trying to push through the crowd.A jour
