Chapter 5
The opposing viewpoint.
"Mr. Sheik, we have crucial news from the Mexican gang boss," Ken, Musa Sheik's secretary, remarked. Musa cast him a glance and extended a gesture. As a result, Ken moved closer to him and murmured something in his ear. A maid was pouring his glass with juice. Musa Sheik gave the woman a sidelong glance but said nothing.
"Are you sure?" "Musa said, after a moment of silence. "I'm sure, boss," Ken said. The maid was ready to go when Musa interrupted and said, "Hey, you stop there." She jerked as soon as she heard him. She nodded and stood quietly in a nearby corner. Ken asked, "Boss, do you have any problems?" But Musa changed the subject and said, "Did Farru call you?"
Ken said, "No, boss, he didn't."
"What exactly is he doing there? If his graduation is over, why didn't he come to me today? "Musa said. "I know how you're feeling, boss. I also miss Liam, "Ken said. After taking a long breath, Musa sat up from his chair. He grabbed the glass of juice and moved closer to the window. Through the window, he gazed out. He was enjoying the moment watching the waves at the shore.
Musa's Aside.
I took a glance at the sea. I could see the sea vista from my mansion. The waves slammed at the crest with such force.
Olivia, your son, is now an adult. It's something you've always wished for. You've always wished for him as if he were a free bird. However, I apologize. I didn't listen to you. I lost you because of my mistake.
You never wanted him to interact with my terrible world. I didn't either, my love. But I did everything I could to keep him away from this. Your son, on the other hand, does not choose your path. I'm aware he couldn't forget about his mother's death. I closed my eyes and took a long breath.
"Boss," Ken said. I shifted my gaze to them after opening my eyes. "Come here," I said to the maid. She fixed her gaze on me. Her eyes were filled with terror. "Come here," I urged again, raising my voice.
Ken was ready to haul her away, but I signaled for him to stop. That maid lowered her head and approached me. I said, "Drink this juice." She gave me a startled expression.
"What is your name?" I asked. "I -I," she stammered. "What's your name?" I asked once again. "My name is Mariam," she said. "So Mariam, please have this juice, "I asked after a moment of looking at her. "What are you saying, boss?" she replied. "How can I do this?" she said. I said, "Are you disobeying me?" She dropped her gaze and took hold of her dress. "If you don't want to drink, I can help you in a number of ways," I said.
But she remained silent. I gestured to Ken to hold her. Ken was going to take her hand in his, when she abruptly knelt and began crying. "Please don't be so cruel, my lord. It's not my fault at all. I didn't want to poison your drink, "she stated.
"Tell me your real name?" I asked, looking at her. She stammered, "It's Mariam." "I asked about your true name," I added quietly. "My name is Astelia," she swallowed and replied.
I asked, "Why did you do this?" "Actually, I'm quite poor, and some people hired me to work here. So when the caretaker picked me up for an interview, they gave me the order to kill you, "Astelia explained. Well, that's interesting. Astelia, who are they? ", I asked. "I have no idea who they were. Please believe me what I say, "she stated. "OK, Ken," I replied as I stared at him, "take her to our guest house."
"Please, no, no, no. I don't know anything. "She screamed. I answered with a smile, "You do not need to be concerned. Simply follow him. "
"Come with me," Ken urged, holding her arms. "Please, my lord. Please be merciful, "she stated. Ken was the one who took her out. I set the glass down on the table and picked up the phone to dial Farru's number.
However, he did not answer the phone. I sighed and said, "You still can't forgive your father, right?"
On the other hand,
I grabbed my phone and dialed Mom's number, but she didn't answer. "Mom, you're always this way." I turned my attention back to Daniel and Henna. They were both busy. I took a deep breath and began gazing around. It's a massive mansion. This Farru is a very wealthy man.
I began roaming around to see what was going on.
