The Heir of the Family 047 - Biting Your Own Tail
When the taxi almost reaches the neighborhood where Victor lives, only then does that car stop following. The taxi takes a turn, and that car just keeps going. In the end, they don’t know for sure whether that car was really following them or not. But Victor feels so grateful for that old taxi driver’s concern regarding his safety. And so, Victor pays the taxi, not only double, but triple. However, Mr. Jameson looks reluctant to accept the extra pay Victor gives to him. “If you pay me this much only for what I just did, then forget it. I did it for what I thought was the right thing to do,” he declines. “No, that’s not it. Let’s say I just hit a jackpot. The item I put into the auction found a generous buyer. He bade my ring for double the initial price,” explains Victor. “Is that so? Well, I accept your generosity then. Just call me again whenever you need,” says that old man as he waits for Victor to leave the car. After that car leaves, Victor glances at his surroundings with
The Heir of the Family 048 - Not Another Gold Digger
Meanwhile, Lucas has to find a way to persuade Lucy, who has been sulking since what happened at the parking area before. He takes her to Johnson’s Pleasantry, even though Lucy has been declining his proposal so far. “I still have dreams that I want to achieve. I'm not ready to get married yet. If you want to get married that bad, just ask that Emma,” Lucy insists on declining. “I admit it that I have an issue with another girl, but it’s all in the past, before you were back to this town,” replies Lucas. “Heh? So, it’s that so easy for you to just leave a woman, huh?” Lucy replies with a contorted face. “For you? Well, yeah! It's a no-brainer. Any man would be more than happy to leave his girl if it’s to get you. So please, come with me. It’s just a gift before you go back to New York. You can pick whatever you want,” Lucas persuades her to visit Johnson’s Pleasantry. “Whatever I want? Are you serious?” asks Lucy with squinted eyes. “Yeah! But you can only pick one!” Lucas is so
The Heir of the Family 049 - The Anxiety Of A Driver
Mr. Bermer gets out of his office. Immediately, he finds another couple who have a quarrel in his shop. Now he is busy trying to calm those two down, not wanting their quarrel to affect his business. Lucas has also noticed that all the eyes are on them at the moment. He forces his beautiful mind, who is always good at flattering a girl, to find a way to calm Lucy down. “Come on, Honey! Of course, I know! When did I call you a gold digger? After all, you’ve always denied my gift so far, right? How a Hollywood star like you could be a gold digger?” explains Lucas by holding his voice, trying to win Lucy’s trust. It manages to change Lucy’s mind. In the end, she is calmed down by how sweet Lucas’s words are in flattering her. “You mean it?” she asks with a bit of a sulking face. “Yeah! Well, not about that 2 Million dollar ring that you asked back at the auction,” says Lucas. “That one ring is a different story,” Lucy interrupts immediately. “Don’t blame me for asking you to buy it
The Heir of the Family 050 - The Devil Is Coming
Martin backs to his house, still with the 2 Million dollar lingering around in his head. Before getting inside his house, he averts his attention back to Victor and Viona. “Please!” Both Victor and Viona ask him at the same time. “Oh? Yeah, yeah! I’ll get inside now!” After Martin gets inside his house, only then Viona starts expressing her objection, for receiving 2 Million dollars through her mobile banking. Well, it’s only around 1.8 Million dollars, after the tax and a few cuts for several parties involved in the auction. “What’s the meaning of this?” she asks. “Sorry, I forgot to tell you before. I asked them to transfer the money to your bank account,” says Victor. “Why?” “You see, I don’t want the money to be disputed by Emma later. That’s the only money I have since my dad has put the ban on using the other bank account,” says Victor. “Oh, why don’t you just transfer all the money from your second bank account to me then?” asks Viona with a taunting smile. “I don’t thin
The Heir of the Family 051 - Returning The Favor
Lucy is a bit confused about what her friend just said. She looks behind, seeming so curious who the devil she just mentioned. “Who?” she mumbles with a confused face. The same with Lucas, averting his attention to where Emma went. But Lucy’s friend just takes their attention again, trying to invite them back to the conversation. “Nah, just forget about it!” she says, putting on an uninterested look on her face regarding Emma’s coming. And so, Lucy also ignores it. The same with Lucas, who is looking so ignorant with Emma’s existence inside the bar. The truth is, Lucas was actually looking at Emma just now. It’s just that he only saw her back, with Emma having already put on her uniform and a hat for a drive thru operator. Right now, without so much care, Emma greets Robert who is just coming out of the kitchen. She then keeps walking toward her post like how she usually did in the past few days. Since working at “Peccato Legale”, she has always looked out of place. She is ofte
The Heir of the Family 052 - The Angle
Every desire does require sacrifice. It seems to be a standard formula, where one needs to sacrifice happiness to get happiness. Sacrifice money to get money. Or maybe, those who don’t want to take the risk of losing anything, might find the need to sacrifice others’ for their own gains. Squeezing other’s sweat and blood for their own pleasure. Countless people have thrown away most of their lives, only to feel the thrill of victory and the satisfaction of momentary success. It’s almost like the climax in sex. Three minutes, five minutes, or maybe you have to sweat for a matter of hours. But in the end, the pleasure of the climax is only momentary. After that, you will be exhausted, then sleep and find peace. The same anxiety is currently haunting Victor. The fact that he now has already had a lot of money makes him uneasy. It can be said that he had lost his family life and other kinds of effort to get that 2 Million dollars. And that’s what he feels now, that people might do more
