"It just so happens that you're here, Papa gets an invitation from Mr. Carlos. You come on behalf, I think your father will also ask you to represent" Arka told Nathan, handing over an invitation to his son-in-law.
"Mr Carlos? Isn't that person very mysterious and rarely holds events like that Pa?" nathan asked to make sure.
"You're right. There's a rumor that says that tomorrow's party is to announce Carlos' heir. But Papa himself can't be sure." replied Arka.
"Is it okay if Amel and I come?" nathan asked worriedly.
Arka smiled and patted her daughter-in-law.
"You take it easy, there's nothing to worry about. After all, the event must have invited many officials and business people in this country who can be one of the opportunities for you young people to find relationships" replied Arka explained.
Amel and Nathan stared at each other and nodded their heads understanding Arka's intentions and goals.
"All right, tomorrow we'll be at the party." said Amel and Nathan compact.
"Goodoo. May you be successful." said Arka expectantly.
After enough talking and longing, Amel and Nathan decided to return to Johnson's residence. But in the middle of the trip the two decided to stop by a boutique to buy clothes that will be used tomorrow.
"Do not use high rights. You're pregnant now" Nathan warned.
"Good husband." said Amel.
The two are again busy choosing the clothes they will use tomorrow. Amel chose a long silver dress that was not too open and Nathan chose a matching color suit. After the two felt fit, they returned to Johnson's residence.
...****************...
The night of the feast was held in the great hall inside Carlos' mansion. All the guests who came were amazed by the vastness and luxury of the most mysterious person's residence. Not many felt frightened as the black-clothed guards guarded every corner of the residence.
"Have you heard that Mr Carlos has a child?" ask one of the middle-aged men.
"Yes I heard it too. But I heard a princess. Does Mr Carlos really want to hand over his power to women?" the other sahut.
"Well, then I'll have my son approach Mr. Carlos's son. It must have been very profitable if I could have joined Carlos" said the other man then they chuckled.
"Actually who is this guy? It seems so influential?" abuel asked his husband.
"Have you never heard of Mr Carlos?" ask Nathan.
"I have no time to think of such things." replied Amel honestly.
"Mr Carlos is the most ruthless mafia leader in the country" Nathan said, making Amel close his eyes.
"Then why are our parents asking us to attend this event? Isn't this the same as us coming to deliver our lives?" ask Amel scared.
Nathan smiled then gently stroked his wife's head.
"You just calm down. This event is not a war but to announce the heirs and descendants of Mr. Carlos who have been hidden." Nathan replied to make Amel breathe a sigh of relief.
"But we still have to be vigilant, this strong person must also be staked by many enemies. I don't want our future child in danger." Amel said cautiously.
"Just calm down, honey. I will take care of you." Nathan said.
Backstage, Carlos and Harris' family are preparing.
"You ready, son?" ask Adam.
Davina looked at Adam and smiled.
"I'm a little nervous, Dad." replied Davina.
Adam and Sera smiled then clasped her daughter's hand.
"Rilex, Baby. It's time the world knows who you are." said Sera softly.
"Yes, Mom. But I made sure everything was going to be okay, didn't I?" davina asked, looking worriedly at her parents.
"What are you thinking, son? Of course you have prepared the plan carefully." replied Adam confidently.
"There are your father, husband and bodyguards who will protect you" said Adam but still could not shake Davina's anxiety.
I don't know why his hunch tonight said something bad was going to happen.
On the other hand in the darkness, some men were ready to launch the action.
"The position is all set?" ask someone to some of his colleagues using an earpiece.
"Already, Boss." they said.
"We wait for the order and do it as planned" said the man watching the monitor.
Guests had already arrived and filled Carlos' hall. The atmosphere became silent as the host began to speak.
"Good night ladies and gentlemen. It's an honor we can all attend this magnificent event."
"Surprising news you've heard, haven't you? To make sure, let's welcome Mr. Adam Carlos, the owner of the show, to say a word."
A loud clap filled the room.
All eyes focused on the mysterious figure who had rarely appeared before the public. They only heard the name and power of a Carlos.
"Had to be feared" said one of the guests.
"Just looking at it gives me goosebumps" said another.
"Thank you for the time. Maybe a lot of people here just saw the figure of Adam Carlos. But that is not the purpose of this event" said Adam.
"My goal for tonight's party is to announce my descent. Although it had to be hidden for quite a while, today I am Adam Carlos, wanting to show the world that my daughter could not be bothered by anyone. If anyone dares to disturb him then I will not forgive." said Adam firmly immediately made the guts of everyone in the room shrivel.
"Son, come here." call Adam soft.
The figure of the young girl came out from backstage in a black dress that wrapped her body. The entire audience could feel the cold aura that Davina had was exactly the same as Adam.
"She's my only daughter, Davina Almira."
TRANGS!
The fork Amel was holding fell down instantly. Luckily his voice along with the applause of the people so as not to attract attention.
"A-WHAT? Davina's Mr Carlos's son?" ask Amel not to believe it.
His eyes were round and his mouth opened in shock at the reality he had just seen.
"Is he really Davina? It can't be!" muttered Amel disavowed.
"So Davina is Mr Carlos' daughter? Damnit damnit! It looks like I'm in trouble." Nathan muttered in fear.
"Well, Mr. Carlos' daughter is beautiful." praise one of the men.
"It would certainly be very lucky if I could match my son to Mr. Carlos' daughter." hope the others.
"In addition, I will also introduce my son-in-law, Marvin Harris" said Adam immediately made the entire audience more surprised.
The young men and parents who had originally intended to approach Davina immediately abandoned their intentions.
Hearing that made Amel's body tremble.
"It turns out all this time I've been offending the wrong people. Lusty!" muttered Amel scared.
The boisterous sound of applause reverberated in that hall. Marvin Harris was also the focus of the audience. Really a matching couple.
"Anyone who dares to offend Harris is sure to offend Carlos" Adam warned.
