The Heir of the Family 202 - Responsibility
And somehow, Adam has also realized the suspicion in Hudson’s face. He just stares at him with a cold look with so many things in his mind.At that moment, Hudson has already had the big picture of that incident, and understands what Adam has been trying to set up in that place.“What are you trying to hide here? Who ordered you?” asks Hudson as he puts his hand on his gun.But Adam makes a quick decision. Without second thoughts, he picks that illegal gun from that dead body. He then shoots Hudson in the chest twice, even before Hudson manages to open fire.Hudson falls down, only manages to shoot somewhere on the wall. He isn’t dead yet, but he can no longer pull the trigger anymore.In fact, the commotion in that place has attracted the attention of a few people. But that last shot turns them back. None of them has the courage to get close to that house, nor to that police car.One of them is seen holding a phone, seeming to call the police. But of course, the police have been head
The Heir of the Family 203 - The News
Officer Frank believes that it was that fat boss who sent Hudson out with Adam. But it seems like he is going to be the one who has to take responsibility for Hudson’s death. Because he is the leader of the team who investigates that cement-shoes case. He turns his face to Morgan, and Morgan just forces his smile at him and pats him on the shoulder. “I know you’ve tried your best. Don’t blame yourself too much. This is not your fault.” “I know this is not my fault. But what can I do now?!” replies Frank rhetorically, before getting out of that room. Meanwhile, Victor is still waiting for Officer Frank to come back to him with an arrest warrant. He hasn’t left his office until 3 p.m. But of course, Officer Frank will never get back to him anymore. “So, he really isn’t coming back, huh?” says Victor. “Huh? Are you really waiting for Officer Frank to come back here with an arrest warrant?” asks Judy. “Well, I’ve promised him that I’ll wait. But it’s already past 3 p.m now. Let’s le
The Heir of the Family 204 - The Bad Apple
Since leaving the scene of the crime, only now does Frank's blank expression begin to show a hint of emotion. He grips the steering wheel with both hands in annoyance, as he keeps his eyes on Lt. Schneider from inside the car.He indeed never liked that fat man. And now, his hatred has only grown even worse. The same to Adam, the one rookie who always acts so arrogant in front of him this whole time.“I don’t think he was deliberately trying to solve this case only to gain promotion,” he says before starting his car.“Are you talking about Adam?” asks Morgan.“Yeah, that Rookie! He wasn’t trying to solve this case alone only to secure all the credit for himself. He tried to close it, to hide something that I believe is much more sinister than the ones who killed Diego,” explains Officer Frank.“What the? That’s a serious accusation you have there! You are telling me that he is…”“Well, I only said it to you. Don’t you ever tell anyone that I’ve told you about this,” Frank interrupts h
The Heir of the Family 205 - Insecurity
Before going back to the headquarters, he stops by at a pizza shop first. It is the pizza shop that belongs to that fat Italian man, Benigno. It’s no longer a secret that he and his friends often order the pizza from this shop, even since Victor was still working there as a pizza delivery man.It just so happens that there are also Gambino, Willie, and Jimmy at that shop at the moment. And in fact, those gentlemen are currently waiting for Victor to come, because they are having something that they need to discuss with Victor there.But somehow, there’s no Mia there. It seems like she is no longer working for Benigno anymore.Frank and Morgan enter the shop, without paying too much care about them. They just sit near the counter desk, hoping the waiter will immediately serve them. After all, they don’t plan to stay there for too long.But then, Frank notices Judy among the other employees in a photo hanging on the wall behind the Counter Desk. And there is also Victor there with his d
The Heir of the Family 206 - Defamation Issue
After all, Judy is not so sure about her feelings. While in fact, she hasn’t fully moved on from Diego’s death. She just acknowledges that Victor is a good man, just as what she already knows so far. And she believes there's nothing wrong in admiring someone. Meanwhile, Mrs. Emilia just secretly takes a glance, acting like she doesn’t notice anything odd between them. She just hopes there will be someone else to get into that elevator, so that she can be free from that awkward atmosphere. And then, the elevator stops on the 17th floor. A few other employees get in. And there is also Nancy there who is intending to go back to her office downstairs. “Oh, Victor! Going back home now?” she greets. “Yeah, what about you? Are you planning to work overtime again?” asks Victor as he finds Nancy still bringing some documents with her. “Well, I plan to.” “Why don’t you just ask someone else?” asks Victor. “It’s okay. I love my job,” she replies. And then, she gets closer to Victor as sh
The Heir of the Family 207 - We're Closed!
It’s clear that Jimmy doesn’t know about Albert Wilson’s role in La Marca yet. And naively, he just shows his excitement in front of Gambino.He shows how interested he is with that issue. At last, he gets something serious and someone with great stature like Victor as a client to defend.“No way, did that kid do something to you at his wedding party?” he asks.“Well, he accused me of scamming in an auction. I believe Mr. Gambino also knows about this,” replies Victor.Suddenly, Officer Frank and Morgan leave their seats. Officer Frank puts his hand into his pocket intending to pay. But Victor immediately halts him.“Are you leaving? Why so hurry?”“Unlike you, lackeys like us are so busy, to make sure people like you can live with comfort in this town,” replies Frank coldly.“Then, allow me to treat you for your meals,” Victor offers as he starts rummaging through his trouser pocket.“Naah, we are good!” denies Frank and immediately pays the bill.Victor just smiles and puts his othe
The Heir of the Family 208 - Move On?
Benigno’s face looks so pale, to hear that some people had tried to kill Victor with machine guns. It’s clear that he has seen Victor as part of his family, no matter how harsh his words when talking to him this whole time.“Um, hey! Gambino, brother! What’s all this about?” asks Benigno with an awry tone.But Gambino doesn’t say a word yet, and Victor gives an explanation to his ex-boss instead, knowing that fat Benigno is still showing his concern about him.“That Albert Wilson, the one who runs that big laundry company. His son embarrassed me in public with defamation. Because of that, I lost a few clients and business partners. And his dad wants me dead. For what? Is it for that 1 Million dollars that he lost because of his own son’s stupidity?”Meanwhile, Mike keeps observing Gambino intently while rocking his left leg with rigid movement. But he is not nervous. His face shows confidence, like he is so convinced with what Victor has said just now.After all, all of those words t
The Heir of the Family 209 - Avoiding The Calamity
He even hits the wooden fence on the terrace once, and makes all the glass walls of that pizza shop shaken for a moment. On the other hand, Gambino tries to tolerate Willie’s impatience. He knows that Willie hasn’t learned the exact situation yet, because he hasn’t shared anything about Victor’s background to him. He himself has been trying his hardest to hold his composure in that meeting. “Please, reconsider this again. We are not in the position to meddle in your issue with that nightclub,” says Gambino. “Victor! I’m telling you! Gambino here has been trying all he can do to make sure everyone can live in peace,” Jimmy adds. Even Benigno also takes his part in trying to convince Victor, telling that Gambino has done so much to keep danger away from Judy this whole time. By bringing Judy’s name, he believes that he can persuade Victor somehow. “If Judy were here, I believe she would also ask the same thing to you,” Benigno closes his words. And indeed, it’s effective to change

“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

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

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

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,
