105 You’re not alone

When Asher just entered his room, his cell phone suddenly rang. Asher postponed his intention to take a shower in order to pick up a phone call from Johan the personal assistant who couldn’t attend Suri’s birthday party tonight because he was going with his lover’s family.

“Hello...

“Why didn’t you tell me right away that Suri had been found, Asher?” Johan’s voice sounded so loud in Asher’s ear. “You really are, what do you think of me that you forgot this, huh?!”

Asher laughed. “Ok ok... I was wrong, I’m sorry. Oh yeah how do you do? Are you proposing to Veronika today?”

“Yes and she accepted my proposal,” Johan answered briefly.

“Good, I’m happy to hear that,” Asher said sincerely, although he’s only known Johan for five years, Asher already knows a lot about the personal life of his personal assistant.

“I heard you met Christian again?” Johan suddenly shifted the subject to discussing Christian, his voice sounded so serious like never before.

Asher pursed his lips. “Of course I met him, Christian is Suri’s older brother. He should have come to her birthday party, especially since Christian was the one who managed to find and bring back the afternoon to Geneva.”

“W-what? You’re not joking, are you?”

.....

“No, Uncle Jack told me himself about Christian bringing Suri home,” Asher replied in a calm voice.

“You can’t relax now, Asher. You have to show how hard you’ve worked so far to Mr. Jack, don’t let Christian take your place. You are the one who has struggled to bring Muller Finance International to this point, Asher,” said Johan fiery.

Asher took a deep breath. “If indeed Uncle Jack returns everything I currently hold to Christian I can’t do anything, because basically Cristian is the person most entitled to take care of Muller Finance internationally’ as Uncle Jack’s only son. I’m just an adopted child who was given the opportunity to study.”

“Asher!!!”

“Never mind, it’s getting late and I’m very tired. I want to rest as well as you, tomorrow morning you have to accompany me to a meeting, so don’t be late to the office.”

After saying that Asher then ended the conversation unilaterally, what Asher wanted to do tonight was rest in peace without thinking about work or business. Being able to see Suri again is the happiest thing in his life after three years and Asher doesn’t want to spoil his happy day right now by thinking about things that can give him a headache.

Asher’s goal right now is to finish his cold war with Christian, even if after all Christian is a role model for Asher. That’s why Asher feels guilty when he sees Christian and Jack arguing over him.

Prank...

“You idiot, doesn’t he want to be above that arrogant Christian Clarke? You idiot, Asher.”

With emotion, Johan let out his feelings after Asher ended the call unilaterally.

“No, I can’t fail. I’ve fought so far..I have to destroy the family through their adopted son and take all his property, the property that should belong to my father, Edmund.”

Luxembourg. 02.00 AM.

“Tomorrow morning I will pick you up again,” Christian said softly to Elena who was already standing in front of her door.

Elena nodded slowly. “Be careful.”

“Of course, you go to sleep and don’t forget to dream of me.”

Elena pursed her lips.

After Christian gave Elena one more kiss, Christian then walked into his car and left Elena. Christian’s desire to have Elena completely disappeared after all the chaos that happened in his house, what Christian wants to do right now is drink at Mouren’s bar. Even though Christian could have asked Elena to go with him but he didn’t do that, Christian didn’t want to if he lost control while drunk and touched Elena right then.

During the way to Mouren’s belongings, Christian remembered Elena’s statement saying that there was something strange about the dispute between him and Asher. Elena felt that someone else was playing against the two of them.

“Are you still thinking about what Elena said earlier, sir?” Cainer asked carefully.

“I don’t know, I just feel what Elena said doesn’t make sense. I don’t believe anyone has arranged this, I’ve been investigating Asher for years and haven’t found anything suspicious. All evidence of the leak of funds is clearly flowing to Asher’s account, it’s impossible for anyone else to be involved in this matter,” Christian replies hoarsely, Elena’s words really give him a headache and that’s why he wants to vent it all out with a drink.

“If you want I will investigate this matter, sir,” Kainer said quietly. “I can put a few people in Muller Finance International to keep a closer eye on Asher’s movements.”

Christian shakes his head. “No need, I don’t want you to be distracted by taking care of the child. At Muller Finance International there is Daddy and his two assistants, I’m sure they will know soon enough if the leak of funds occurs again in a larger amount, unlike what has happened in the last four years.”

So far, Christian has not carried out further investigations into his findings, Christian has deliberately allowed the funds to continue to enter Asher’s account and hopes that his father will find him first. But it still hasn’t happened until now, the relationship between his father and Asher is still good. It seems that Asher’s theft of money is unknown to anyone.

“Well if that’s what you want, sir. I won’t do it,” said Kainer again.

Christian is silent again and begins to close his eyes. The corners of his lips that were cracked from his mother’s slap still hurt when he talked too much. Luckily at times like this, Elena is there, someone who can hug and comfort her unlike three years ago when he left the house with blood dripping from her forehead.

****

Without removing the expensive clothes that wrapped her body perfectly, Elena lay on the bed staring at the ceiling of her room which was filled with small stars made of paper, made by herself. Elena is still thinking about Christian, hearing Christian and his family’s little secret makes Elena feel sorry for Christian. Elena is absolutely sure that someone else is deliberately playing Christian against his adopted brother.

This afternoon, while she was cleaning the blood from the man’s lips, Elena could feel a great sadness coming from him. Elena knows that if Christian takes her to bed because she wants to hold back her tears, Christian still wants to look strong in front of her.

When she almost fell into dreamland, Elena then grabbed her cellphone and wrote a message for Christian.

‘You’re not alone, I’m still by your side
