The Heir of the Family 333 - Show Some Gratitude
Sometimes, It’s not that difficult to handle rejection from a stranger. You can ignore it, and move on with your life. But it's different if you have to be faced with a situation where you have to live side by side with that stranger. You can't just ignore this kind of rejection easily. Even worse, if the stranger is the father of someone you love. Yes, it's not hard to understand that the current Victor loves Emma so dearly and honestly. Likewise with Emma, who of course is burdened by regret and guilt, still has deep feelings for Victor. It’s just that Victor doesn’t know about this regret and guilt because of his memory loss. He still isn’t so sure that he has really married Emma, except for the glimpse of memory that he has during the wedding day. And now, he is alone with Emma, in a room that looks like a room for a princess in a Disney World. “It’s so… pink? Are we going to spend the night together in this room?” asks Victor with an awkward face. Emma only puts on a sour exp
The Heir of the Family 334 - A Man's Pride
Olivia tries to reason with her husband to defend Victor. “He has gone missing for more than a month. I don’t think the company where he worked is still going to accept him after this. They could have already had a replacement for his position in the company.”“Well, he can simply tell them his story,” argues Henry. “If he was really a CEO of a big company, he should have something in him that he can use to persuade them. That’s only if he was really a CEO.”“Too bad, he only started working for them last June,” Emma interrupts. “I don’t think that’s going to be…”“Still have the dignity to talk to me?” Henry interrupts Emma with sarcasm. “After all the things you said to us before leaving this house? After having no shame asking your mom to use my money to buy him some clothes? And you still have the nerve to argue with me now?”It’s effective to make Emma choke a bit. She can no longer put any words to argue with her dad after that one. She knows that his dad is bringing up the stor
The Heir of the Family 335 - You Know How I Love You
However, Olivia keeps telling Emma to go to see Victor. She even gives her some wisdom about being a good wife.“It’s not about doubting your husband’s ability in dealing with problems in life. It’s our duty as a wife to show some support. It may not help that much. But you need to make sure that he is not feeling like he is fighting alone by himself.”It manages to make Emma fall to her deep thoughts. Indeed, this kind of wisdom is something she never thought of before. She also realizes that maybe this is one of the many things that could have saved her marriage and prevented her from asking Victor for a divorce six months ago.I shouldn't have let him fight for our marriage only by himself. I shouldn't have let Victor be the only fighter in the family. These kinds of thoughts begin to haunt her mind.However, everything is already in the past. There’s nothing she can do now, except to continue the charade as a wife while Victor hasn't regained his memory.“Emma!” Olivia shakes her
The Heir of the Family 336 - Stop Avoiding Me
Emma just pulls her blanket and covers her head. “Just leave already, like how you’d always been!”And it’s not like Henry is expecting any answer from Emma. Because he only conveys that question while turning away from her.“I’m going to take the car with me,” he says.“Whatever!” replies Emma.Henry puts back the coffee cup on the table, and then leaves without saying anything to Victor.Unbeknownst to Henry, Victor has witnessed how much he really cares about his daughter. And as a man, Victor understands why Henry deliberately hides it from Emma.Because of this too, he reconsiders his options to accept Emma’s choice to stay there for a bit longer. He thinks that maybe Henry is not that bad at all as a man, even if he can’t force Henry to accept him either.And indeed, Henry deliberately stays outside longer than usual. Previously, he would be already at home on Friday late afternoon. But now, he stays in the official residence provided for him even on the weekend.And that's when
The Heir of the Family 337 - Innocence and Guilty
Victor’s face looks so lifeless. Despite the fact he has his own reasons, he can’t just ignore Emma’s feelings now. “Is this why you left Indiana? Please, Emma! I can explain it to you. It’s not like I wanted to hide it. The money in that bank account, it’s not mine, and I was banned from using it. I didn’t want to tell you, because it’d only lead to a false hope for knowing I had that much money but couldn’t use it. And the reason I have to stay working with…” “No, please!” Emma denies him. “We’d gone through this. It was long and tiresome. You don’t need to explain it anymore.” Emma turns away and ends that argument. And of course, it only makes Victor even more confused with her. “Emma! Come on, please! If I had explained everything, then what else?” Victor catches up to her and holds her hand. “Hey, if it is true I had become a CEO for Counterbrand, it only means that my dad must have lifted the ban for me using that money. We can just forget the past and continue our life.” E
The Heir of the Family 338 - Misunderstanding
Vincenzo immediately raises both of his hands even before Victor manages to say something to cast him off.“Man, this is just a misunderstanding. I’ll leave now. But you better reconsider again after this, cause I’ll be sure to come back again. I was hired by your father to protect you,” explains.“Yeah, right! I don’t have a father!” Victor denies. “I was raised in an orphanage.”“Right! It was the Children of the Sun Orphanage. I know about it. See you later.”Vincenzo just takes his leave as he puts back his beanie hat.The thing that Vincenzo said manages to make Victor reconsider it again. Even though Victor still doesn’t remember about Vincenzo, he can’t just ignore the fact Vincenzo knows about his past.Until Emma asks him something and shakes his attention. “Did something happen between the two of you?”“What?” asks Victor with a confused face.“I thought he was your friend.”“You know him?”“Not really. But I’ve seen the two of you together before while I was still in Indian

The sound of knocking on the door continues disrupting their quarrels. Emma ignores her father, and chooses to open the door herself to get rid of the police.However, as soon as she opens the door, it turns out that it is only Vincenzo who comes back to see Victor.“You?”“Where is he?” asks Vincenzo. He then averts his attention to the others who are all looking at him with curiosity, and then finds Victor there still with his confused face. “Victor! Our situation is quite complicated. You can't stay here. We have to get you back to San Francisco.”“San Francisco?” Victor mumbles, starting to feel convinced that Vincenzo must really be someone hired by his dad.Victor leaves the dining table with an unsure feeling. But Henry immediately rushes to pick an antique two barrels break-action shotgun which is hanging on the wall, and immediately points it at Victor right before Victor reaches the door.“Stay there! Now it’s clear that you are really the man named Victor William.”Vincenzo
The Heir of the Family 340 - Vincenzo's Dilemma
That girl named Leona approaches them. Her facial expression looks a bit cringed to find that silly quarrels between them.“Vincenzo! What’s wrong?” she asks.Vincenzo just sighs and turns his attention back to Victor. And Victor is still looking so objected to his suggestion to take Emma with them to San Francisco.“I don’t even know you? Why would I trust you?” He then averts his attention to Emma with an impatient expression writing on his face. “And I don’t even know for sure if we were really married before!”“No, you did marry her,” says Vincenzo.“Yeah, and she said she also cheated on me,” argues Victor.Vincenzo just raises one of his shoulders, tilting his head a bit with an uninterested face, as a gesture that he affirmed for the fact that they did divorce six months ago.“Yeah, that's the reason you both divorced and had a dispute about marrtal settlement,” Vincenzo affirms. Victor turns his face to Emma without hiding his disappointment, to learn that she even refuted wi
