Karina's family and Grayson's family were shocked to hear that. Even everyone who was there looked at Dustin in disbelief. The reporters were silent momentarily in shock, then they took pictures of Dustin and Yosan. Various questions from the reporters could be heard filling the room."Is that man really your son? Why has his identity been unknown all this time and why are you introducing him to the world today?" One journalist from a private television station asked the loudest question of all.More questions followed, making the atmosphere noisy and chaotic. Yosan glanced at Albert and the organizers. The organizers immediately raised their hands as a sign to tell them to be quiet. "Please calm down everyone. We will answer some of your questions. Please be orderly and don't take many pictures."The journalists slowly became silent. They all stopped taking pictures. The organizer respectfully raised his hand to Yosan to answer some crucial questions that needed to be answered, while
Karina left the house, going to the park near her apartment to calm down. She leaned her back against the back of a park chair. She couldn't believe that Dustin had been behind her all this time. Karina thought she was lucky to be able to work at Kenderick's subsidiary because of her abilities, but it turned out that it was because of Dustin's help. She also remembered why Dustin could buy a luxury car, spend on his parents, take luxurious vacations, and even have a black card that had been used so many times that he could buy a private luxury yacht.Karina lowered her head while grabbing her hair roughly. "I should have known and guessed that. No wonder he also seems to be close to Mr. Albert and Mr. Lewis, it turns out that Dustin is a person of honor and respect to them."Karina became even more upset that Dustin was keeping such a big secret. She felt like Dustin had tricked her. However, Karina also wondered why Dustin would keep this secret. Murder? Karina didn't believe in that
Karina reflected on what she had done to Dustin. The talk about her husband kept coming up, making her feel even more guilty. Karina thought it wouldn't hurt to hear why Dustin hid everything. Karina knew that Dustin was not a bad man. She nodded her head, reassuring herself. "Yes, there must be a reason. I have to know." Karina got up from her chair and left the ice cream shop after making the payment.***Karina returned to the apartment. She looked away when she met Dustin's gaze, then went to the kitchen. Dustin only watched Karina from the living room because he thought that Karina was still angry and didn't want to talk to him.Karina came home with something for Dustin. It was food that she had bought on the way home. Karina unwrapped the food and prepared it alone in the kitchen for dinner with Dustin. Karina brought the two plates containing her and Dustin's dinner to the dining room, placed the food on the plates, and then brought them to the dining table. "Dinner."Dustin t
Now that everyone knew Dustin's identity, he thought it was time to introduce Karina as his wife to the Kenderick family. "You said you've never met a Kenderick family member, do you want to meet them now?"Karina's brow furrowed. She chuckled at Dustin's question. "I've already met you. Directly with the heir."Dustin smiled slightly. "It's not like that." He took Karina's hand. "I want to introduce you to my extended family. Do you want to?"Karina was stunned to hear that. Of course, she was thrilled. She was going to meet her father-in-law. Karina could only answer with a nod of her head. Dustin was happy with Karina's answer. "Then, tomorrow we'll go to the Kenderick family's house."***The day Karina was looking forward to finally arrived. Karina and Dustin were dressed neatly. They had been ready since this morning. Eri and Jake, who saw their appearance, looked different from usual. Eri examined Karina's clothes. "Where are you two going? Why do you look so neat?"Karina and
Dustin and Karina went into the room. There, Dustin was quite stunned because the state of his room was still the same as before. Nothing had changed in his room, in fact, everything was still very neat and clean. Karina sat on the edge of the bed, then was distracted by a picture frame of a middle-aged woman on the bedside table. "Is this your mother, Dustin?"Dustin turned his head in the direction Karina was pointing and sat on the edge of the bed. He grabbed the picture frame and stared at it intently. "Yes, she's my mom."Karina gently stroked Dustin's arm. Dustin put the picture frame back on the nightstand. Sadly, he didn't want to ruin the moment between them by remembering his mother. Dustin smiled as he stroked Karina's cheek. "Are you happy to be here?"Karina nodded her head quickly. "Yes, of course. I'm very happy to meet your father. Although at first I was afraid that your father wouldn't accept me."Dustin nodded his head. He was also actually afraid that his father wo
Because Dustin had returned to the Kenderick family. Yosan immediately prepared a party to welcome the return of the heir. All the servants were busy preparing for the party. Starting from the decorations and party arrangements, it was specially designed by famous designers and building designers. Not half-heartedly, Yosan brought in experts in their fields. Yosan wanted to give the best welcome party for Dustin.The other members of the Kenderick family were annoyed because they thought Yosan was too much. They didn't even participate in helping prepare the party. They just watched with annoyance. Merry, Yosan's sister, who was none other than Thomas's mother, was even haughty and snappy to the servants, showing her dislike clearly."How annoying. My son should be the heir to the Kenderick family. Yosan is indeed unfair. His son, who has left the family, is made the heir instead." Merry cursed in annoyance. She left the party room, pulling herself together to go to the mall.One day
Dustin led Karina out of the building where the party was being held. Karina threw Dustin's hand out of hers. Karina looked at Dustin with an annoyed look on her face. "Can you explain what exactly happened here? Who is that woman? Is she really your fiancée that you're supposed to marry? Explain it to me, Dustin."Dustin looked intently at Karina's face, then explained about the woman who claimed to be his ex-fiancée. "Yes, the woman with the short hair is my fiancée. Her name is Zeya, but we're not that close. I just thought of her as a friend. She once tried to betray me and I even saw her kissing another man." Dustin smiled slightly as he recalled the incident. "The thing I remember the most and can't forget, is that he didn't sympathize when I lost my mother. That's why I distanced myself from Zeya. After that, I had a conflict with my father."Karina nodded her head, listening to everything Dustin said. "But it seems like she's still expecting you, Dustin. She claims to be your
Dustin's facial expression remained unchanged even though he heard the shouting voice of Karina, who immediately ran towards him. "Dustin!"Karina, looking worried with teary eyes, immediately checked Dustin's condition. She held Dustin's head and felt his body to ensure nothing was hurt. "Are you okay? Nothing got hurt, right?"Dustin only replied with a nod, then looked at Thomas, who seemed to smile while raising his hands casually. "I'm sorry, I accidentally shot at you. My hands were slippery with sweat."Oscar and Julian laughed at Karina, who seemed to overreact to Thomas' stray shot at Dustin. Julian grinned at Dustin, who was now also looking at him coldly. "Why, things like that often happen at the shooting range."The servants who were there became tense. They felt a different atmosphere and could only look at each other. Albert, who had been in the place watching them from afar, approached Dustin but at a great distance from the battlefield. "Are you alright, sir?"Dustin
