Heir to the throne : Revenge

8 - Key figure

08 GM

He 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 for a dozen years.

 The atmosphere in the car is just here silent since earlier.

“Where are your thoughts!"Luna's screams brought Lucas to his senses, he almost hit the car in front of them. Lucas stared at what he was doing.

“Come on, let's change places.” Luna came out from behind the steering wheel to replace Lucas.

Lucas was silent and obeyed Luna's words obediently he almost killed them. "You want to kill us," Luna said angrily.

“You haven't been well since you met Hugo.” Luna decided not to take any chances. Seeing Lucas ' regretful face was enough for him to melt immediately.

“I'm just afraid that if you fail to take over your shares. You're gonna get bad business, I hear LH Tower has connections everywhere."Lucas' reply sounded drowned out.

Luna nodded. “You're right, we could have lost badly if we wanted to defeat the owner of LH Tower. I'm trying to find a way to get out while making you an excuse for stalling Hugo's job to disrupt my company.”

Luna's gaze is sharp and firm. The woman has a strong determination to reorganize his company may

be destroyed by his own family.

 ” We can fight them soon, " Lucas added sounding confident.

“How?"Luna asked raising one eyebrow and glancing at Lucas who was sitting next to the steering wheel seat.

"You just need to find Odde Ace he is the real key, I

make sure I will reverse your position and avenge your father's actions who arbitrarily sold your shares and company without your knowledge.”

"Odde Ace?"muttered Luna. The man who managed to make Lucas beg her to find that figure, Luna only knew if the man was a fairly influential person when he was still active as a lawyer.

“I don't promise that I will get the information you want soon, it might take a long time to find out where he is. But I'll do my best if what you're saying can help me regain ownership of the company."Luna finally wanted to promise something that made Lucas hear her smile.

There's a slight awkwardness about Lucas ' unusual request. Of course, Luna's question will soon be answered if she manages to find Odde's figure.

***

It's not easy for Luna to find Odde's figure. He only got information on Odde's whereabouts after waiting almost a month more.

When her cell phone rang loudly, even though her body had just touched the mattress in the early hours of the morning Luna had just gotten a bright spot for Odde's existence.

Luna clutched a letter tightly in her hand, her eyes full of hope. Next to him, Lucas sat in tension, looking far ahead, as if looking for answers to the questions that haunted his mind and where would they go?

The car they were both driving was on its way to the outskirts of the city. 

Odde, a lawyer is sought after by Lucas in his quest to unravel a Lucas family mystery.

It's been a month since Luna attempted to investigate Odde's whereabouts. 

Of course, with the help of Luna, women who have unexpected connections manage to get information that is quite difficult to penetrate by the LH Tower, especially Patric Bullo.

As their car drove through the increasingly narrow streets, Lucas felt his heart pounding hard. He could not contain his feelings even during the confusion.

"Luna," he called, trying to ease his nervousness, " we will find her, won't we?"

Luna turned her head, a slight smile engraved on her face. "Of course, you think I have no trouble fulfilling this request of yours,” Luna replies amid their nervousness.

A moment later, their car stopped in front of a small house with a lush garden in front of it. 

The house looks quiet, but it is clear from the outside that it has a garden that looks well maintained, the owner is a person who likes to enjoy the calm atmosphere and matches Odde who chose to retire from the realm of law.

The two of them got out of the car, and with cautious steps, they approached the door of the House. A light knock on the door made them wait in suspense.

The door opened, and there stood a middle-aged man with a warm smile on his face.

 "Hello," said the man kindly. But his face was confused to find lovers in a remote area.

“Did your car break down?” asked the old figure looking for an answer to why these two couples knocked on his house.

"Hello," Luna replied, drawing Lucas closer.

"Are you Odde Ace?"Lucas asked enthusiastically, his voice trembling somewhat.

The man who allegedly was Odde turned to look at them sarcastically.

The man nodded, “Yes, what is it?” the question is thorough.

“I'm Lucas, I have something to tell you about my father's company. LH tower."Lucas said making Luna who heard him glare to the side.

His eyes were as if throwing a question that had to be answered immediately by Lucas. Luna is surprised to hear Lucas ' courage to admit that he is the son of the owner of LH Tower, while she only knows Hugo is the successor of the giant company.

“What is this, you mean?” Luna muttered, unable to catch Lucas.

It took a few minutes for Odde to observe his guests and then give way to them to enter his modest home. 

They sit in a cozy living room, surrounded by well-kept furniture. It seems that Odde became a man who enjoyed his retirement during a career as a famous lawyer of his time.

"My name is Odde," the man said, greeting them again. "Can I help you?" he didn't look away from Lucas and didn't sound friendly either.

Lucas gulped, preparing himself to reveal the truth that had been hidden for so long. "I am... I am Lucas, "he said slowly," Lucas Capriccho, son of the late Harrelson Capriccho."He continued in a calm tone.

Odde looked at her with an expression mixed between surprise and bewilderment at the recognition from his guest.

Luna has been silent since listening to the interaction of the two men there, tense to feel the atmosphere in a closed room.

“What can you be sure of, if you are the son of Harrelson Capriccio? If you were his son, you should know that he never saw his family again.” his gaze grew sharp like a dagger ready to stab Lucas.
