Naomi's scream and the sound of the bullet made everyone pause for a moment and then join in the hysterical screaming. Everyone was too crowded to leave the place. Meanwhile, at this time, the confused Naomi immediately tried to see the wound on Kenric's back, but suddenly there were four men pulling Kenric's body after jostling with the invited guests."Who are you?" asked Naomi, who was naturally worried; after all, she couldn't trust anyone at this party."Come with us," said one of the four.Immediately, Naomi got up from her chair and immediately followed the four people out of the room.A few minutes passed; at this time, Kenric, Naomi, and the four people entered one of the rooms there. But the sound of shouting and excitement was still heard outside the room."How is he?" asked White as he stepped out of the bathroom.Naomi was dumbfounded for a moment, until she finally understood what had happened. "He fell after being shot in the back," replied Naomi while looking back at K
"Why are you asking him that? She saved Kenric," said Mr. Dipo. "And this Naomi has come to the house several times to deliver my medicine that Kenric bought specially, so it's only natural that I know her."That answer silenced Mr. Brayen. Meanwhile, the reporters glanced at each other as they continued to film the incident.'Thank goodness this grandfather defended me,' Naomi thought with a smile of relief. Then she glanced at the reporters, who continued to record the incident. 'I'll go crazy if I stay here,' she thought.After more than 15 minutes of chatting and answering a few questions from the reporters, Naomi finally managed to get out of that place and immediately went to the room where Kenric would be hospitalized. After knocking on the door, Naomi immediately entered the room. However, her steps stopped near the door when she saw Mrs. Reya there."Madam, what are you doing here?" Naomi asked while stepping calmly towards Mrs. Reya, who was currently standing right next to
"Wait," Kenric said to Naomi, who was still in the doorway of the room.Naomi then turned around. "What's wrong?" Naomi asked with a calm expression on her face."Didn't you ask about your grandfather yesterday? Don't you want to know about this matter again?" Asked Kenric while putting the cell phone in his hand on the table.'It's true that I forgot about this,' Naomi thought as she stepped back towards the sofa and then sat near Kenric as before."Tell me, what really happened to my grandfather?""Mr. Harvey is sick; that's why he went to La-Badroz," Kenric replied with a serious expression on his face.Naomi's eyes rounded when she heard Kenric's words. "Are you serious? Then why did he go to La-Badroz if he was sick? Is there a hidden hospital or something?""No, there's no such thing. He really lives there and has fun with people his own age," Kenric replied, then let out a long sigh."Why would he do that? Is he desperate with his illness?" asked Naomi, who was getting curious
After a few minutes, Kenric and Baka finally arrived at the meeting room. Everyone looked surprised at Kenric when he opened the meeting room door."Sorry, I thought the meeting hadn't started yet," Kenric said while smiling warmly at everyone in the room.The people in the room looked at each other, except for Harold and Mr. Brayen, who were currently staring at Kenric."Harold, why didn't you tell me that the meeting would start earlier?" asked Kenric as he stepped towards one of the empty chairs in the room. After that, he sat down casually on the chair like a proper company employee.At that moment, Mr. Brayen glanced at Harold with his sharp gaze.Yes, Kenric knew that Mr. Brayen had actually instructed Naomi to tell Kenric that the meeting would be held earlier. But Harold suddenly came to Naomi and threatened her not to tell Kenric about this meeting."I don't think you're well enough for a company meeting, so I'm not telling you because after this there will be more important
After waiting for more than five minutes, the people finally wrote their choices on a paper and then gave it to Naomi. And after Naomi collected them all, the counting was finally done."The result is Mr. Harold got five votes and Mr. Kenric also got five votes," Naomi said after finishing counting everything.Mr. Brayen then looked at Harold and Kenric in turn. "Well, since the results are evenly matched, then I will give both of their names to the shareholders. Let them decide everything," said Mr. Brayen who tried to decide fairly.The employees in the room stared at each other at this. Yes, there was certainly a bit of disappointment in their hearts because it turned out that the person they chose could not pass at this meeting. Three days passed quickly, at this time Kenric, Harold, and Mr. Brayen were already in the meeting room. They were silent and kept waiting for the arrival of the shareholders, including Mr. Dipo and Mr. Jeromi."Well we won't be long, let's start
Today Kenric left work early because he wanted to pick up Mr. Dipo to go together to Mr. Brayen's house, the venue for tonight's party. Yes, the person who was determined to organize tonight's party was Mr. Brayen. He told Kenric to put aside his anger at Harold and Mrs. Reya for the sake of the good name of the Osbert family.And Kenric agreed because, after all, he was already the main leader, and it was clear that this was his father's good intention.'Maybe he's afraid that I'll expose everything and bring his good name down. And it's also more advantageous to side with me than with the defeated Harold,' was Kenric's thought when he saw his father's sudden friendliness."Grandpa, we're leaving together; I'll change my clothes right away," Kenric said when he had just met Mr. Dipo, who was currently in the living room with Alex.Mr. Dipo replied, "Why don't you take the girl with you?""Why should I take her?" Kenric asked back."Didn't I tell you that I want to have a great-grands
Two hours passed. In the end, Kenric now came to his parents' mansion along with Mr. Dipo, Alex, and White. Kenric pushed Mr. Dipo's wheelchair to the garden where the event was held. While Alex and White followed them from a distance.At first, everything went well. Kenric shook hands with the invited guests, who also immediately welcomed the arrival of Mr. Dipo, who was a role model for businessmen in his time."Thank you all for taking the time to be here tonight. I am very happy that you all welcome my presence as the new leader of the SIA company; it is an honor for me," said Kenric politely.The middle-aged guests smiled at Kenric's words. He seemed very respectful to everyone and certainly not arrogant. Because those with experience know that arrogance is the beginning of carelessness in the business world.Kenric was silent when he saw Naomi, who had just entered the place and immediately smiled at him."Ken," Mr. Brayen said as he nudged Kenric's arm, which had suddenly gone
One week passed, and now Kenric had been transferred to prison even though his status was still not set as a suspect because the trial schedule had not yet been determined. It's just that since the day he was arrested, no one has come to see him or keep him updated on what's going on out there."Never mind; just stop hoping. People will always be with you when you're free and rich, but after you're here, no one will want to see you because people like us are considered trash," said an old man who has been one of his cellmates since he was transferred to the prison."I'm still sure they won't leave me," said Kenric, who continued to be nervous."Ah, you stupid and stubborn young man. Time will surely make you realize that what I say is the truth," said the old man who was imprisoned for killing a rich man who had raped his daughter.Kenric was silent. He didn't have much to say after being transferred to that place.'What happened to them,' Kenric thought as he continued to stare at th
After a few minutes of walking, Kenric finally arrived at the courtyard of the Rodriguez family mansion. There was Naomi, who was currently standing near a car, guarded by White and Baka on her right and left. Kenric also accelerated his pace to get to Naomi's place immediately."What's wrong?" I asked Kenric, whose happy expression on his face immediately faded when he saw the tense expression on White and Baka's faces."Nothing; don't mind them; let's go home," said Naomi while grabbing Kenric's face and then smiling warmly.Then White said, "Your wife is bleeding again, but she insisted on waiting for you here instead of getting into the car."Kenric's eyes widened at that. "Is it from running or something?" he asked with a worried look on his face."It's okay; there's no stomach pain, I think." Naomi's sentence was stopped when suddenly Kenric picked her up."Open the door! Let's go back to the palace!" Kenric ordered.After that, White immediately opened the car door, while Baka
Three days passed. This afternoon, as planned by Prince Evan, a party to welcome Kenric as a new member of the Pelso Royal family was held lavishly. All members of the royal family, relatives, and important people in the country of Pelso were invited and attended today's event."Are you ready?" asked Prince Daniel, who was currently approaching Kenric in your room, where Kenric was staying for a few days in the palace."Yes, everything is ready," replied Kenric as he stood up from the sofa where he had been sitting.Then he looked at his watch. "They should be there by now," he said."If you're worried, then I can send more people to help there," Prince Daniel said, offering to help."No need; the fewer people involved, the better. I don't want to make a big fuss; as long as Naomi is safe, that's enough," Kenric refused while needing the earphones in his ears."Well, then let's go immediately to meet the guests; after that, you can leave this place," said Prince Daniel.Kenric nodded
A few minutes passed as Kenric returned to the waiting room. And at the same time, Doctor Uno was seen talking to Prince Daniel."Are the results out yet?" Kenric asked with a cold expression on his face."Already," replied Prince Daniel.Then Kenric turned to Doctor Uno."As expected, the results of your DNA examination say that 99 percent of your DNA matches. So it is confirmed that you two are related as father and son," Doctor Uno said calmly."It's good that there were no mistakes in the DNA test," Kenric said, then sighed."Once again, the public announcement of this DNA test will be left to you; are you willing?" asked Prince Daniel while looking at Doctor Uno with a cold gaze.Doctor Uno immediately nodded his head. "I am willing," he replied seriously."Good, then get ready to announce this," said Prince Daniel calmly.After that, Doctor Uno left the waiting room with the DNA test documents, while Kenric now walked up to Prince Daniel."Then what do we do next?" Kenric asked.
Ten minutes passed, and finally Kenric and Prince Ares came out of the maze together."What took you guys so long?" Prince Falcon asked in a cold tone."If I walk faster, then you will pay the fine," replied Prince Ares as he walked casually toward Andreas."Clean up the four corpses in the maze carefully," Prince Ares said as he passed Andreas.Andreas' eyes widened when he heard Prince Ares' words, but a moment later he changed his expression back to calm.After that, Prince Ares walked over to Leticia. "Look at me coming out of the labyrinth with Kenric, the person you've been worried about."Princess Leticia immediately rolled her eyes, showing a lazy expression, when she heard Prince Ares' words."Thank you for worrying about me," said Kenric, who was now in front of Princess Leticia, and then returned the key that Princess Leticia had given him."Of course, I know my brother's nosy nature, so I was worried about you," said Princess Leticia, who then smiled warmly at Kenric, who
After a few minutes of discussion, Princess Leticia felt that it was dangerous, especially now that it was nighttime, and Prince Ares seemed to deliberately challenge Kenric, who certainly did not know the way in the maze."With this map, you'll be able to get out of the maze, whether you win or not," said Prince Ares as he handed Kenric a paper. "Besides, there is security here; if you don't get out of the maze in two hours, then we will all be looking for you."Kenric finally opened the map and then looked at the image on the map for a few seconds, then rolled the map in his hand again. "Alright, I'll play this game," Kenric replied as he stood up and then gave the map back to Prince Ares, who was in front of him.Prince Ares smiled sarcastically. "What can you do without this map? Just bring this map so as not to embarrass yourself; even if you get lost, we will still look for you," he said."No need; I've memorized the path on the map you showed me," said Kenric.Prince Ares showe
Meanwhile, in the reading room at Prince Evan's place. Prince Ares and Prince Falcon were currently sitting on chairs opposite Prince Evan. Yes, Prince Ares and Prince Falcon were listening to the story about Prince Daniel's youth, so Prince Daniel decided not to marry until now."I understand, but it's obvious that Uncle Daniel's son is eyeing an important position in the kingdom," Prince Ares said after hearing all the stories."I don't think so," Prince Evan replied."No?" Prince Falcon frowned at his father's seemingly confident words."He gave signs that he wouldn't be here long, and our people say that your cousin refused to come to this kingdom before," Prince Evan replied."But it could just be an act, maybe it was done so that we wouldn't suspect him. Especially now that the king's condition is getting weaker, I'm sure he came in this way and made a public scene to attract their attention and sympathy so that he could bring down our position," said Prince Ares while clenching
The reporters were eager to take photos of the paper shown by Andreas, until a moment later, Doctor Uno appeared and made some reporters change to interview Doctor Uno. Meanwhile, Kenric and Prince Daniel were currently walking together with Baka, White, and several royal guards to leave the area and return to the car they used to come to the hospital."Ken, I heard one of your father's men trying to put poison in the food you'll be eating this afternoon," White whispered as he opened the car door for Kenric."Is it deadly?" asked Kenric as he walked past White."I don't know yet," White replied because earlier, when he was on guard around the hospital with Baka and accidentally overheard the conversation of two of Prince Daniel's men, he could only hear it at a glance, so he didn't know whether the poison that would be given this afternoon was a deadly poison or not."Did you bring the antidote?" Kenric asked."Yes, I brought it," White replied in a soft tone.Kenric, who was now sit
"Doctor, what are you doing here?" asked Doctor Uno as he looked at White. White was surprised and immediately cleared his throat. "Sorry, you must be mistaken," he replied calmly. Of course, this immediately made Andreas and Prince Daniel turn to White. "There's no way I'm mistaken, your appearance is very distinctive, I-" Doctor Uno immediately stopped talking when he saw that White blinked his eyes several times. Then Doctor Uno cleared his throat and regained his composure and looked at Andreas and Prince Daniel. "Please forgive me, I think I did recognize the wrong person," he said then turned to Kenric. "Alright then let's go in to do the tests and also other examinations," Doctor Uno said calmly and then turned around to step into the hospital first. Meanwhile, the reporters continued to photograph the incident with excitement. Ten minutes later, Kenric was sitting with Prince Daniel on a waiting chair in front of the examination room after taking blood samples. Se
After arriving in a guest room on one side of the palace, Kenric chose to stand in the center of the room and stare around the room. Meanwhile, Baka and White were currently examining the objects in the room and picking up several hidden surveillance cameras installed in several wall hangings and cracks in the room."Check the glass," Kenric ordered as he walked towards the sofa quietly.Baka and White immediately left the table where they had collected the cameras and walked over to the vanity glass in the room and the glass in the bathroom."Right, the glass in the bathroom has a problem," Baka shouted from inside the bathroom.White, who was examining the vanity glass, replied, "The glass here seems to be safe.""Maybe it's because they've installed eight surveillance cameras around this room," said Kenric while looking at the CCTV cameras on one side of the room.Yes, he deliberately left one CCTV so that the people who were watching him could see that he was not doing anything wr
