At the Delvino family residence, Lista paced back and forth in front of her uncle’s work house. He was still thinking about how to tell his uncle about this incident because he couldn’t possibly cover up this big incident.“Lista?” Reina called, successfully making the woman flinch.“Auntie ... shocked me!” said Lista with a tense face.“Why is it?” Reina asked with a frown. “You’ve been pacing up and down in front of your uncle’s study, what’s wrong?”Lista looked at her aunt in doubt.“I want to see uncle, Auntie. There’s something important I want to talk to him about ...”“Then why don’t you just come in?” Reina asked with a frown. “In fact, the pacing is not clear like this, come in.”Lista still stood doubtful. Before he could form the right words, Reina had opened the door and pushed him into Herman’s room.“Excuse me!” Reina said in a deliberately loud voice, making Herman look up from his work.“Reina? What are you doing here?” Herman asked in surprise.“Your nephew
Meanwhile, at the Delvino family’s main house ....“Where is my husband?” asked Shirley, who had just returned from a trip out of town. “Could it be that Brother Ronnie did something wrong with him?”Alvon looked around here and there, but the house looked deserted and no one could be seen there.“Maybe Marcel went to have fun with Venya,” answered Alvon. “We’d better have fun straight away, I have a meeting early tomorrow ...”“In that case, okay.” Shirley just nodded and assumed that Marcel was indeed with Venya.Almost midnight, Shirley and Alvon arrived home in a daze.Both of them laughed and babbled incoherently with red faces.“Marcel! Marcel!” called Shirley with half sleepy eyes. “Marcel! Where the hell is that guy?”“He’s not at home!” said Alvon, who was just as drunk. “Your husband ... ran away again!”“Ha ha, yeah?” said Shirley while scratching her hair. “Huh ... why do you have a husband who runs away like this, how cool is that ...”Alvon threw himself on the sofa and
Marcel immediately followed the two people’s steps to leave the room. They walked like medics, passing through long, quiet hallways and sometimes only meeting one or two people who happened to be passing by.As soon as he arrived near the security post, Marcel saw one of the figures giving money to the officer on guard.“Could you please buy some bandages, Sir? I’m tired after practicing surgery!”“Yes, Doctor! I’ll buy it ...”“Here is the money!”Marcel remained silent when the officer simply went to buy them bandages.“Take the car now!”“Okay!”One figure went towards the parking lot while Marcel remained standing where he was.Not long after, the sound of screeching car tires was heard behind them.“Hurry up everyone!”Marcel felt his shoulder being pulled hard and the next moment he was in the car which then immediately stepped on the gas and left the hospital area.When the car they were in was far enough from the hospital, Marcel took off his mask and looked at the two figures
Shirley’s voice was so loud, Nana even jumped in surprise.“Patience, Madam ... Mr. Marcelino has had an accident ...” said Nana stammeringly.Shirley snorted, her eyes scanned Marcel from head to toe with a probing gaze.“Why are you wearing those clothes?” Shirley asked curtly.“These are clothes from the hospital,” Marcel answered flatly. “I was in care for more than one night, that’s why I didn’t go home ...”“Whose fault is it that you ran away?” Shirley said fiercely.“I didn’t run away, don’t make accusations without evidence!” Marcel replied. “I went to work, then ....”“So what? Have you had a disaster? Robbed? Mugged?” Shirley actually got even crazier. “Old song, Cel! You pretend to be sick, so that I feel sorry for you. Isn’t it? Having a husband like this is such a showman!”Marcel sighed. Timidly, Nana placed a cup of hot tea on the table.“Please drink it first, Sir.”“Thank you, Nana.” Marcel nodded, but Shirley immediately pushed the cup aside until the contents spill
“Oh, the people have arrived! “You just ask him directly,” said Shirley, pointing at Marcel with her chin.“What is it?” Marcel asked, embarrassed.“When are you going to pay all your parents’ debts?” Dito asked back in a style like collecting a debt.“My in-laws and I have agreed that I will pay off the debt as soon as I get more money,” Marcel answered flatly. “What’s the matter with you anyway and why should I explain it to you?”Dito suddenly became silent.“Even if my in-laws’ family objected, they should have contacted me directly to discuss this matter further.” Marcel added.“That can’t be the case,” shook Dito’s head. “I am one of Mr. Herman’s office employees, so I have the right to know when your payment will be completed.”Marcel shrugged and replied, “I will contact my in-laws directly if I want to make the payment.”“Why don’t you finish things now, Cel?” asked Shirley interrupting. “You’re so embarrassed that you owe us money.”Marcel threw a warning glance at Shirley.
Dito could no longer refuse, he still had to be aware of his position in front of Shirley’s father.“Excuse me, Sir.” Dito said goodbye, Shirley immediately held his hand.Marcel looked away, disgusted.“But, yeah. “Don’t believe what Marcel said earlier,” asked Shirley pitifully.“How will father believe when your hands say otherwise?” Herman asked firmly. “Come here, let’s talk nicely.”Dito turned to Shirley and nodded his head, then they were forced to separate when Herman told him to.“I have a work permit, Dad.” Marcel said goodbye because he was not interested in participating in the conversation between father and son.“No, Marcel. You have to come too,” said Herman, shaking his head. “You just sit down first, Mrs. Delvino said you were discharged from the hospital?”Herman joined in the act, although in his heart he was quite amazed that Marcel had managed to escape from the supervision of Lista and his family.“Okay, Dad.” Marcel just nodded, he didn’t want to prolong the pr
“What’s wrong, Bro?” Marcel asked as he walked down the stairs. He turned his gaze straight towards the sounds he heard.“Mr Marcelino! Sir ...!” call Nana again, she’s not usually like that when she calls members of the Delvino family.“What’s going on, screaming?”“Auntie Nana just made my virtual meeting a mess!”Shirley and Alvon’s voices shouted at each other, making the atmosphere at the Delvino family’s house even more lively.“Why is that Nana?” Reina asked in surprise at Herman who was turning off the laptop.“You just go down and check whether the food is ready.” Herman ordered. “We have to treat Marcel well, so that he can use his energy again.”Reina nodded and quickly came down from the room. He passed Marcel who had already reached the bottom of the stairs.“Marcel!” call Reina.“Yes ma’am?” Marcel stopped in his tracks and turned to his mother-in-law.“What’s all the fuss about like that?” Reina asked as she continued her steps until she arrived in front of Marcel. “Are
Herman looked at Marcel who did not immediately answer his question.“I—they were looking for me, Dad.” Marcel explained because the facts were like that.He never knew about the pharmacist or the Delvino family’s relatives before they appeared after Aldi managed to find them first.“Did you know about this beforehand?” Herman asked again.Marcel shook his head and answered, “The problem is that they recognized me as the medicine expert they were looking for, so I didn’t dare to take any further interest in my past.”Herman then looked at Reina.“But Marcel is our son-in-law,” said Reina, pretending to be understanding. “It’s impossible for you to just take her away, what about our daughter?”Stefi glanced at Marcel and said, “It’s up to Marcel, our business is just coming to take him home.”Marcel knew what Stefi’s gaze meant, he was implicitly telling her to choose.“Is it true that these two are relatives of our family, Dad?” whispered Shirley in a voice they could still hear.“A p
