“You're asking if I know the whereabouts and condition of Iris‘ child?” Mr Jack asked, “Yes, I know where the child is. He's fine as of now,” he continued.“Oh, yes? Thank goodness. So I can tell my grandfather everything later.” Rose said happily.“And you also know who that child is, Rose.” this time Mr Jack's words confused and shocked Rose even more, “Yes, you actually know who that child is. Because all this time-’ her Dad's words were interrupted by a knock on the door.“Excuse me, Boss. We have a visitor looking for Boss Rose, " a servant reported to Black Jack.“Who's there?” Lion asked the servant.“I don't know but they mentioned that they were from Eagle Murphy's group.” the maid replied again.Rose, whose mind was still confused by what her Dad had said to her, was distracted by the report of the visitors as the maid said, “Why are they looking for me again? My problem with them is over with Alfred's death,” Rose said to the maid.“Let them come in and wait in the parlor.”
While William and Jesslyn examined the contents of the flash drive Lion had given them by lending them Lion's men's laptop, Rose and Lion resumed their argument. "So, you've been hiding all this from me, Lion?!" asked Rose angrily. "Yes, I've kept it all from the beginning. But I did all this for you. So that you can think more clearly in making the decision to retaliate against that person, Rose." Lion explained. "You are crazy. Why didn't you just tell me so I could kill that bad guy before I went home?" Rose urged angrily again. "To what end, to deliver more trouble? Don't you realize what you did to slaughter so many people in that country was dangerous?" "After you're caught, can you tell them that you only wanted to save the life of a child?! It's not that easy, Rose." it was Lion's turn to yell at Rose. Regardless of whether William and Jesslyn understood what they were saying or not. Rose was silent. She felt that what Lion said to her was the right thing. It could have
"I've been watching the family myself, without you all-knowing, and right now, my men are always standing guard near them, keeping them away from mafia threats like us.""Only when you were there, I pulled my men back because I believed you could protect them," Mr Jack told the truth."What? Didn't I hear wrong? Lion, I think I have a problem with my ears too," asked Rose who was getting more and more clueless about the situation."Dad, Rose, that's enough. Don't say anything more. And you, Rose. You should rest now." said Lion who interrupted their conversation."No, Lion. Please be quiet for now. I want to hear Dad's reasons for hiding so much from me. I just found out today that we're related to Aunt Melati, and now, Dad has been looking after them without saying anything to me. What does that mean, Dad?" Rose asked for an explanation."Because Shine is my grandson, Rose. Shine is Iris' son," Dad replied softly without being able to hold back his tears this time.Rose's body became
[Bugh!] Right into Lion's handsome face, Rose threw a pillow at him."You silly bastard! If you want to tempt me with food then you've got the wrong person. Never mind, I'm already full, and I feel even more nauseous," Rose said after feeling her stomach start acting up again."See? You don't believe a word I say, do you? You're still sick, Rose. Just obey and be a good girl," Lion didn't get angry instead he smiled and said softly to Rose."Hmm, I guess you're right, Lion. My stomach is hurting," Rose finally relented and admitted her situation.Lion left Rose after finishing feeding her. He gave Rose a gentle peck on the forehead as a sign of affection, 'You need to rest completely for three months, Rose. Your womb is too weak, even to hold back your raging anger,' Lion said softly.Everyone knew that Rose was pregnant. Only Rose and her men did not know about this.***The hot sun woke Rose's sleep through the cracks in the window. She recalled going to see Mr Jack in his room. Ros
"You, Rose. I had to laugh at your anger just now. Are you blaming me for being jealous? Yes, you're right. I was jealous and afraid that you would go back to that bastard. But, what I'm more afraid of is yourself. I'm afraid that something bad will happen to you and I won't see you again," Lion told Rose."Oh, I knew it. It turns out that my condition is not as simple as I thought. I'm always suspicious of your excessive attention to me, even though I feel my body is fine, and when I ask, you always say that my stomach and digestion problems, when in fact, you are hiding something else important from me." said Rose who felt played."Tell me, Lion. What's going on with me? Why do you keep hiding my health problems?!" raged Rose who could no longer contain her anger, "Akh..." squealed Rose in pain while holding her stomach."Rose?!" called Lion in panic, "I told you not to overreact. You need to calm down," he said again."Lion, do you still want to hide this from me when I'm already i
Since the news of Rose's pregnancy was revealed, Lion has increasingly showered Rose with his full attention, especially after Rose no longer rejected Lion's feelings for her even though they were unrequited. Lion is like a standby husband looking after his wife who is pregnant with their baby. For this reason, Lion lowered his ego for Rose's happiness, including by facilitating Rose who wanted to communicate with Shine and her family in Indonesia. Like right now, Lion was beside Rose who was talking to Troy and Shine through a secret network that could not be tracked by outsiders, it was needed for Garendra's family to always be safe and not become the target of Black Dragon's enemies. "Is it enough, what do you feel now?" Lion wanted to know how Rose would express her happiness after the small gifts Lion would continue to give her. "Thank you, you're the best, Lion. I feel so much better that I was able to contact those who turned out to be fine. It was only longing that made us
[Brother Sky, they seem to be few, and I don't see any man who is more dominant as the leader of Eagle Murphy's troops. They all look like subordinates who scattered without orders!] Lily reported the situation he was monitoring from his position guarding the barricade in front of Death Rose's headquarters.[Yes, I think Brother Lily is right. There aren't that many of them. Not more than five hundred people!] Lion's voice was also heard commenting on where he was hiding for reconnaissance.[Alright. If you gather with Dad first! Make sure none of the enemies are still moving. Don't let anyone escape or just pretend to be dead!] this time, Sky answered and gave directions to his younger siblings.[Roger!] Not only Lion and Lily answered, but all the Black Dragon members who were currently lurking, also answered the leader of their mission this time.At the end of the twilight, all the Black Dragons who had participated in the enemy battle were now gathered together near the ruins of t
The conversation continued on a five-way basis as Mr Jack also joined their communication channel.Everyone calmed Rose down by telling her how they were doing when she wasn't with them. So, Rose wouldn't feel anxious about her family being at war.However, the familiarity was broken when Mr Jack asked how Shine was doing and Rose responded with many excited sentences. It made Lion feel lazy to listen, even though he missed Rose so much."I'm out!" [Beep!]Lion's communication channel was cut off, making Rose feel guilty. But Mr Jack changed the subject again until their communication was over.Lion didn't want to hear Rose mention any man other than him, even though Lion realized Sean couldn't be kept away from the fact that he was the biological father of Rose's baby.Lion diverted his frustration by walking for fresh air behind the Black Rose headquarters, which contains his laboratory.There, there was an artificial lake that he had created in the middle of a garden of rare animal
"How can a head blow be considered a form of affection? Luckily my head is strong. So, no matter how much you hit me, I won't be stupid," Lion replied with a weak laugh. "Come on, Lion. You should just rest. After you wake up later, you can continue your silliness again," Sky said calmly to Lion. "Yeah, you're right, Bro. I was really tired and sleepy. But, I'm afraid when I sleep, I won't see you guys again later. Let my eyes stay awake like this to see my family's face, Bro..." answered Lion. Everyone touched his heart after hearing each of Lion's weak words with sadness. The daddy, Sky, Lily, and Rose continued to respond to every word Lion said until it was clear in their eyes, the look on Lion's face that was already very pale with his breathing slowly blowing. "Where's my Sunny? Let me hug him," Lion asked again. Sean walked Sunny closer to Lion. Little Sunny immediately hugged Lion's limp body with non-stop sobs. "Sunny, do you remember my message that time, son?" asked
"I didn't think my steps would stop like this. Looks weak in front of you. Makes Daddy and all my brothers sad. Makes Rose and Sunny cry. I'm useless," continued Lion, sadly."No one knows how God plays out His will. And I don't think I need to advise you on destiny. Our fates have been this complicated for a long time," Sean retorted."You're right. If I had known a day like this would come, I might have been more greedy to snatch Rose from you. Make her love me, and get you out of her mind!" said Lion, laughing weakly."Unfortunately Alice was created by God just for me, Lion. Don't dream!" Sean joked replying to Lion's arrogance, "But, so far I'm aware. There's nothing I can force from her. Her heart and decisions are indeed her. As of now, even though she loves me, her love for you is so great. Even Alice is willing to leave me cunningly. Are you satisfied, huh?" he continued."Feel it! I told you, Rose would choose me!" replied Lion proudly. They both laughed at each other's sadn
Everyone's busy life immediately stopped and all attention turned to Lion's deteriorating condition. The situation was quiet even though dozens of people gathered around Rose's house area.Everyone's feelings were shrouded in sadness. Not only Mr. Jack and his children. All of Lion's men had gathered waiting for the good news from their leader, but what they also knew, was it was impossible to expect Lion's recovery at this time.In Lion's room, Mr. Jack and his three children along with Sunny were still crying, calling their daddy's name.They watched some of Lion's men inspect and care for Lion in silence and sadness.With his weak eyes closed, Lion still faintly listened to Sunny's cry for him."Sunny," Lion called weakly.The little one who listened to his father's call immediately slid down from Sky's arms towards Lion's bed."Dad, what happened to you? Was it so painful that you could faint? Tell me, which part hurts? I'll treat you, Dad!" Sunny whined at Lion who was smiling we
Riverside, California…The Black Dragon family arrived at Rose's private residence. Instead of wanting to go back to his own home or base, Lion chose to go back to Rose and Sunny's house.And Lion's current state was weak and immediately lay down on the bed in the room Lion usually occupied when he was there."Rest and sleep your body first, Lion. You're tired. Don't force yourself to keep playing with Sunny. We still have many days to spend together!" Rose advised Lion not to push himself again."I told you, Rose. Don't treat me like a sick person. I want our life to go on as usual, even though it's not like that. Don't remind me that I'm going to die, Rose. That's sad," answered Lion sadly."I don't want your death either. Neither of us wants you to leave. Don't be silly, Lion. Your body can't keep up with you. Get some more rest, and once you're refreshed, you can continue playing with Sunny. He's not going anywhere. We will all stay here with you!"Rose finished advising Lion whic
"Everything will be fine, Rose. Trust your decision. I know you are a strong woman!" said Mr. Jack encouragingly. Rose nodded and smirked."Mommy, why is Daddy sick? It must be because you hit Daddy too hard, right?" Sunny asked her what was on his mind."Not because of your Mommy, Sunny. Daddy Lion did have to rest for a while. You know best, how crazy is Lion in his research, right?" Lily came from behind and explained to Sunny."I don't believe what you say, Uncle Lily. You and Mommy are the same. Always makes my dad sick while playing. Can't you guys just stop practicing war games like that? It's not fun at all!" the smart Sunny complained."You are indeed Lion's son. Even your attitude and nature are the same as your daddy! I stopped talking to you. I will not win against your words!" Lily sneered at Sunny with a funny face."Violence is not a good thing, Uncle. Pain and bleeding. I do not like it! Winning through mind games and tactics is more exciting. That's the real game!" Su
Sean smiled cutely. He got off the sofa and was now kneeling in front of Alice."I don't know how stupid I was for ignoring your feelings. Sorry, because I don't understand at all what your current wish is. I guess all this weirdness of yours is yet another trick to leave me after you disappeared again for half a day!" said Sean."You idiot! Why would I trick you again? Can't you see I was so scared all night because I saw you die for such a stupid reason? I don't want to see you like that again, Sean!" Alice scolded him."Thank God I thought wrong. I'm too scared to lose you again, Alice! Don't ever leave me again!" Sean said happily as he rested his head on Alice's lap.'Sorry? I'm the one apologizing, Sean. Because I tricked you again this time!' she said quietly in her heart."Then where have you been all afternoon? When I was confused when you disappeared suddenly. Of course, I panicked. I thought you were going with that jerk again!" Sean said honestly telling his panic."Thunde
'Sean, can we meet and talk? Come to where I show you!'That's the content of the short message that Alice sent to Sean."What are you going to do again this time, Alice? I won't let you do anything stupid again!" Sean muttered as he rushed out of the hospital.The whole way Sean kept muttering. He was very worried about Alice's decision that would change again and might leave him.It was getting dark when Sean's car pulled up in front of the lobby of the Garendra Conventions Hall. One of the five-star hotels is a hotel owned by the Garendra family.Sean again confirmed the address Alice had sent on his cell phone. Sean was very surprised at what Alice would do now.'Why did Alice tell me to come here? After leaving suddenly, and now want to meet at this place,' said Sean in his heart.Sean headed straight for the room Alice directed. And when Sean was right in front of the designated room, the door suddenly opened with the figure of Alice welcoming him.Sean's eyes didn't even blink
"Since when did you experience this, Lion? Tell us!" Lily told Lion to explain to all of them. The meeting of the 5 mafias was heavy with the silence of each person there. "It's been three months since I had this disease. I got this disease when I finished researching animal deaths near my laboratory. Many animals died mysteriously. And I was suspicious of the artificial lake water around there," "And my guess is right. This type of amoeba is the cause of the death of these animals. When I did intense research, I was exposed to," "As much as possible I made an antidote to destroy this type of amoeba in the lake and finally I succeeded," "I knew I was going to die, just like those animals. But I kept trying to stick with the potions I made until I lasted long enough." "Then, I tried it into the lake and the results were satisfactory. The animals survived and no longer died without cause. But I," "This is my bet with God. I also don't understand why I haven't died yet. But, as mu
"Dad, the spy Ramos Eagle Murphy who was caught yesterday, has opened his voice and admitted that Ramos is traveling to peaceful countries to create a new army." Sky reports regarding Ramos. Ramos is the leader of the raid on the Black Dragon headquarters years ago who is still being searched. Ramos is known to have run away with his adopted brother, Damian. They are the founders of the second-generation Eagle Murphy mafia group. The Eagle Murphy mafia group left only the two of them after all the leaders of their branch groups were exterminated to their roots along with other rebellious mafia groups. "I suspect, they will visit this country too, Dad!" Lily also expressed his thoughts. "I didn't think that the two of them were thinking of coming to this country. Damn! I won't let those bastards spread the seeds of evil in this country!" Ramos and Damian may look to the peaceful country of Indonesia to develop their criminal group again. After all, if they started to enter throug
