The Heir of the Family 076 - He Hasn't Changed
Victor puts on his dumb and ignorant face to hear such a question from her. “The size? Did I mention the size? No!” Victor denies. “Eeeh, if you talk about what suits you according to your taste, then you can go around saying everything does not suit your taste. That’s not fair,” says the lady. It’s effective to invite chuckles from Victor. He shakes his head, tidying up all the clothes and puts them all back in the bag. “What do you mean not fair? I don't just carelessly make judgments here. I judge based on your own assessment standards. “My assessment standards?” mumbles the lady. “Previously, the first time I came here, you said that one of the clothes which cost over $1,000 suits someone like me. Isn’t that the standard you put for me? As someone who drives a Rolls-royce?” says Victor rhetorically. It shuts the lady silent. She begins to realize where Victor’s explanation would end. Meanwhile, Victor just keeps his nonchalant smile. “But today, none of the clothes you have
The Heir of the Family 077 - La Marca's Birthing Place
Emma abandons the suitcase and heads back into the room. She stops there by the door, observing the situation in the bedroom. It’s not clear if she really has a talent as a detective, or just a hunch as a woman. She realizes that it’s unlikely the ones who had entered the house were just thieves. One thing is certain, she is not their target. Because she herself was drunk all night and no one touched her. “It's obvious they're after Victor. But who? Why?” She finds it hard for someone as good and naive as Victor would have an enemy that would after his life. Until suddenly, she thinks about herself, and then Lucas. That’s the only thing that comes to her mind, for people that have enough motive to come after Victor’s life. She feels like she has created an enemy for someone good as naive as a kid like her ex-husband. She turns her head back toward the suitcase. She begins to doubt herself, whether she has the right to just leave after all the trouble she has created for him. “No
The Heir of the Family 078 - The Best Advice
It invites Victor’s interest to hear Jimmy’s story. Somehow, he has a kind of unique interest with any story regarding mafia, or something that has a link to Italo-america people. It’s like some kind of a myth has just unfold. “About this La Marca. Who were they? Some kind of mafia?” asks Victor. “They were just some thugs who had big dreams. But they did want to be considered as an influence like The South Bend Mob or Labella Family.” And then, Jimmy is silent for a moment, as if he is thinking about something in the distant past. Not long, and he then shakes his attention back. “That’s it about the past. How about you? Don't tell me you came all the way here just for that cup of coffee.” “Indeed I came here for this cup of coffee,” Victor replies nonchalantly. “By the way, I did win the legal dispute with my ex-wife. Just like what you said. Right after the arbitrator read my documents, he didn’t give my ex-wife any penny,” says Victor. “Told you,” replies Jimmy. “Well, I felt
The Heir of the Family 079 - I Took It Personally
After leaving Jimmy, Gambino immediately calls his friend, Willie. Even though he didn't get much information from Jimmy, Gambino knows very well that Victor is not just nobody. “Make sure no one touches that man! No need to find out who he is anymore. Whatever it is, don't touch that man!” [What about Albert? I'm not sure if I can stop Albert if he intends to do something to him.] “I’ll tell this to the other three leaders. If necessary, I will tell this to Eusebio himself.” [Is it that serious?] “Yes! He is not someone we should meddle with.” Meanwhile, Victor is almost reaching his house in the Geist area. When entering the residence area, only then does Victor notice a Cadillac following him from behind. Even until Victor parks his car in front of the house, the Cadillac also par
The Heir of the Family 080 - Call My Dad
Victor glances around, and finds the apartment room looks more like a secret service headquarters, with two monitors still busy monitoring whatever they are monitoring. Meanwhile, one blonde guy with a pigtail is busy playing a video game with his computer. “Judeo!” calls Mike. “Sorry, I’m busy raiding the boss’ dungeon here. Just serve yourself,” that man named Judeo replies. “Dude, we were under attack just now!” says Mike. “I know. And I'm also under attack at the moment,” replies Judeo, still busy with the online game on the computer. “See! Did you hear what he said?” “What? He is playing an online game,” replies Victor. “That’s it. We work for your dad, not for you. If you insist on living here, just make yourself comfortable. Don’t expect anyone to serve you here. And one thing else, you can’t just get in and out, like this is a playground. We have a protocol here, to make sure no one follow us to this place,” says Mike coldly. “Oh, okaay!” replies Victor with an awkward
The Heir of the Family 081 - Emma's Prejudices
Meanwhile, Emma is still stalking Lucas at the moment. She has been sitting in a café for several minutes, observing Lucas who is currently across the street. What Emma finds at the moment begins to strengthen her suspicions that it is Lucas who was trying to do something bad to Victor before. Because at this time, Lucas is seen serving two strangers talking with him. The two of them looked so different unlike people in general. The heads of the two are slightly barren in the front, with narrow eyes so much like those of an Asian. And Emma, with all her prejudices, begins to assume that the two men are criminals, who make contact with Lucas as mercenary villains like she often sees in the movies. In fact, both of them are just Lucas' business partners who are originally from Asia. They could be from Korea, China, or maybe some countries in the oriental region. But fo
The Heir of the Family 082 - Confession
While in the taxi, Emma is in a dilemma over her decision whether to use the money left by Victor for flight tickets to Canada. Or maybe she can use that money to survive until she can find a new job. What is clear, now she feels like she no longer has any obligation to protect Victor from anyone. Although she still thinks that Lucas has a grudge over Victor. When Emma just gets out of the taxi, she is a little surprised to find Judy in front of her house. It looks like Judy has been waiting there for a while. “Judy? Have you been waiting here?” asks Emma. “Yeah, quite a while,” Judy replies. Judy looks a little confused. She thought the house was empty because Emma and Victor were probably out together. But now, she finds Emma is home by herself. “Where's Victor?” Judy asks. “I came here because there’s something I want to discuss with him.” “Why don't you just call his number?” asks Emma. “Well, I'd love to tell him in person if possible,” Judy replies. Now Emma is confused
The Heir of the Family 083 - The Made Man
Victor is silent there for a moment, looking at the gun in front of him. It’s a Glock 19, a semi-automatic pistol. It’s a handgun so commonly used by armed and police forces in almost 50 countries.Not that he hesitates to accept it, and this is not the first time he holds that kind of gun. In fact, he has already used the same gun when he was attacked before.It's just that he's starting to feel like he really can't keep taking lightly every problem that comes his way. If possible, he just wants to be able to live a quiet life like before, living life as a nobody.“What?” asks Mike, snapping Victor from his reverie. “Don’t tell me you are afraid to use a gun? You showed absolutely no hesitation the last time you snatched a gun from me. Or perhaps, should I teach you how to use it?” says Mike taunting Victor.Victor glances a bit at Mi

“So, we are going to live here now?” asks Judy, just as she gets out of the car right in front of a humble two-story house. “All of us? Together?” Victor averts his attention to Judy, and immediately, Judy changes her facial expression to her childish one. “Ah, never mind! Come Emma, we need to secure the best room for us.” Emma is still looking so unsure whether to stay living together with them. But Judy insists on taking her. Victor just lets Chappy take all his stuff inside. He just leaves, heading to one shop right next to his new house. There are several people doing some renovation for that shop. And the first thing that catches his interest is the two guys who are now installing a banner with colorful lamps, mentioning La Marca. “So you're really going to revive La Marca, huh?” Victor turns behind, and sees Jimmy coming to him. Yes, this one shop is exactly the same spot where La Marca started, and it is right across the street, in front of Jimmy’s office. “Are you inte

360 - The Good and the Bad (The End)
So, Victor stays there for a while, waiting for Lucas to come. Meanwhile, Fazio and Gambino are looking confused by him. “So, you have footage of all his vaccine projects all this time, yet you let him scheme all these bad things on you?” asks Fazio. Victor turns his face to Vincenzo with a stupid look for a moment before giving a reply. “Um, I don’t clearly remember about this footage before. After listening to that old man’s story, only then did I think about it.” “Well, he was just a naive kid that time. He didn’t have the heart to do bad things on others,” says Vincenzo. “Heey!” Victor voices his objection. “No, it’s not about naivety,” Chappy interferes. “I know my bro is a good man. You see, I once tried to rob him, yet he treated me like a brother now.” Gambino just shakes his head with a silly face. “It’s good you want to do something good for others. But you need to understand, you can’t be too good to anyone. Especially in this kind of thing.” “I know!” replies Victor

359 - The Price Of A Trust
On the other hand, the one who hired Lt. Schneider to kill Victor as a fugitive is now having a restless night. Not because he is worried, but simply because he is confused, who killed that fat cop.He is none other than Elijah Miller, the lawyer that Lucas hires, who also has a grudge on Victor.“Could it be that man? No way!”He thinks this might be Lucas’ doing. But he never told Lucas who the police he hired for that scheme. Can’t get enough of his thoughts, he just leaves his house and visits Lucas in the middle of the night.And to add more salt to his bitterness, he finds Lucas seeming to have a peaceful night. That man opens the door for him with sleepy eyes.“What? Can’t you just come later in the morning?”“Damn! Was it really you?” asks Elijah.“What is this?” asks Lucas with a confused face.Elijah pushes the door, and then checks on the situation inside just to make sure there’s no one else beside them. He then asks Lucas to follow him to his car.“Haven't you heard the n

358 - Zip His Mouth
Jimmy immediately whispers to Victor that they don’t need to do anything to defend Emma’s testimonies. Because Emma already finishes her role in clarifying about his memory loss. “Don’t mind them. They are just trying to create a ruckus. It’s clear they have nothing to use against us.” Meanwhile, the judge also tells Elijah to stop bringing that issue, because he sees almost no correlation between that matter with the current case. “Maybe she does this to redeem her past mistake, or maybe not,” says the judge. “Whatever her intention is, all you need to do is to focus on the evidence she brings, and the credibility in her story. Is there anything else you want to ask the witness?” “No, Your Honor!” replies Elijah. Soon after this, the judge adjourned the trial for a while. He asks both Jimmy and Elijah to come to his office. The judge delivers his sermons, advising Jimmy and Elijah not to send the trial into obscurity in order to avoid unnecessary public attention. But sadly, th

357 - Questioning Her Intention
After all, he has made an agreement with Frank for this one, and he doesn’t want to screw Frank’s scenario in attacking Adam. Besides that, Jimmy himself already prepared his own arguments to protect Victor from all the accusations.When it is time for him to bring his witness, he asks Vincenzo first, as someone who was hired as Victor’s bodyguard and accompanied Victor to Canada.“I believe it was the same day they found Atkinson’s body. My boss was invited to attend the funeral of his ex-wife. It was shocking news for him. So, without thinking much about that message, we headed to Canada the same day.”“And there was this cab driver, welcoming us by telling us he was sent by the Mayor of the Town of the Blue Mountains, the father of my boss’ ex-wife.”He tells everything about how this mischievous cab driver left them in the nowhere, and how some people came to kill Victor. But of course, Vincenzo didn’t tell the part when he killed them all by himself.“We got separated, so I told

356 - Weak Testimonies
The next two days, Emma receives a package from her sister in Canada. It’s the document about Victor’s medical condition including the CT scan report of his head. At the same time, Mandy also receives a package from Eusebio, containing Victor’s phone that is already busted after he fell to the river. But of course, Jimmy is confident he can still fix the phone, and secures the odd message that Victor received from Emma’s phone number. “How did you get this?” asks Jimmy. “Someone sent it to me from Canada,” replies Mandy. “Who? He must know that I might need this to defend Victor’s case. Who sent it to you?” Before this, Jimmy already learned about some people talking about Eusebio coming back to Indiana. In the end, he only learned that the one being talked about was actually Victor. “Mandy! Are you hiding something from me? Did Eusebio meet with Victor in Canada?” Mandy nods twice with an uninterested face. “He was the one who helped him. He already called me right when he foun

355 - I'm Out
Even Frank isn’t getting a peaceful night either. There are so many things that don't click with his beautiful mind. He has learned quite far about the background behind that serial murder case. He knows that Victor has something to do with this, and has already had a theory that this led to the death of Atkinson. “So, Adam got Victor and this Johann guy at the same time. Does that mean all your theories are true?” asks Morgan. Frank doesn’t answer him. He just sits there with a flat face, while busy rubbing his ring finger which no longer has any ring on it. His mind keeps working on the narration to conclude all the theory and deduction that he has made so far. “But this man, Cooper! He said he came to Lucas to warn him about this serial killer,” he says. “But Lucas said that it was Cooper who tried to kill him in the toilet,” argues David. “That’s the problem,” Frank refutes. “We have an eyewitness that this man, Cooper, had a fight with someone wearing Arabian outfits in the

354 - When Being Innocent Is Not Enough
He hits Victor again, while he is still pinned down on the ground. That hit only looks like a joking tap, as if he is agitating Victor to release his rage. And indeed, it’s effective to make Victor even more infuriated and mad. But then, just as Victor raises his left hand intending to continue his assault, someone just shoots him with a gun. Fortunately, it only hit his left shoulder from behind. But because of this shot, he is no longer in a mount position pinning Johann down. Weirdly, that shot only makes Johann infuriated. He gets up, and shows how annoyed he is with the one man who just shot Victor. “Yoou!!!” He grumbles with a low voice, before shouting out his anger. “You’ve screwed everything! That’s his moment, how dare you screw it!!!” Still within his madness, Johann recklessly rushes toward that man who is still holding his gun. And then… “Bang! Bang!!” Two shots in the chest put Johann down. That man approaches Victor who is now trying to get back up by holding his

353 - Release That Beast!
Weirdly, for whatever reason, Johann didn’t kill Lucas. Cooper finds Lucas still breathing albeit no longer conscious. He immediately takes out a phone, and informs Victor and Vincenzo about that situation. However, as he just intends to leave that restroom, one security guard and two cops appear. Yes, there are already several cops around this building, because Lucas had shared to the police about the possibility of Victor would attack him. There are also Officer Frank and a few of his team among them in the outside. As those two cops notice Lucas’s condition in the restroom, they immediately put Cooper down on the floor. They then cuff Cooper’s hand behind his back. Of course, Cooper tries to break free, looking so impatient to not let his target away. “You stupid! You got the wrong person. He is out there, a man with an Arabian outfit!” “Silence! Whatever you want to say, you can explain it later in the office. You have the right to call an attorney. If you are unable to do so,
