Child Genius - Beyond Recollection
CHAPTER 60 ~ New Family ~

That morning, Mrs. Rowenna and Mr. Robby sat on the back porch, chatting casually looking at the beautiful garden behind the magnificent house.

"The lady is big, there are guests" said a waiter.

"This early in the morning ? who comes this early in the morning ?" ask Rowenna.

"Mr Edward Miller, ma'am, from New York" said the waiter.

"From New York ? honey, let's meet" said Rowenna asked her husband to meet the guests who came.

The guest room had been waiting for a handsome young man and a mixed descendant. The man immediately greeted Saltano's master and mistress and introduced himself.

"We already know you're the one who kidnapped our daughter-in-law. What do you mean you came to see us ?" ask Rowenna ketus.

Mr. Robby immediately touched his wife's hand asking her to calm down.

"We are very surprised by your arrival here and can hardly believe it, you dare come to see us" Robby said.

"Then forgive me sir, I don't mean to surprise you and your mistress" Edward said politely.

"What was your purpose in coming to see us ?" ask Robbie calmly.

"Before I want the master and the lady to read this document I brought, please sir" said Edward while giving the sheet of documents he brought.

"What is this ? proof of your relationship with our daughter-in-law ? you are Celina's half-sister ?" Robby.

Mrs. Rowenna immediately read the document proof of the family relationship. Attached to the results of DNA tests.

"Dad and Celina's mother are Helena and Robert Miller ?" ask Robby to convince himself.

"True sir, I am the eldest son of Helena Miller" Edward said.

"Oh my goodness, it turns out Celina has a family in America ?" ask Rowenna.

"My mother has been looking for him for years, ever since he lost her when Celina was a baby" Edward tells the story.

"Robert Miller ? is he a businessman in New York who died on Russia's Elbrus mountain ?" ask Robby.

"Right sir, he is Celina's real father do you know her very well ?" edward said glad to see that Mr. Robby knew Celina's father.

"I know him but I don't know him very well, he was a very successful businessman since he was young, talented in painting and a hobby of climbing. I heard all those stories from a fellow entrepreneur" Robby told me.

"Right sir, here are some pictures of Uncle Robert's painting" Edward said.

"Look baby, this painting is very similar to Celina" Rowenna said.

"It was a painting of my mother, painted by uncle Robert" Edward explained.

"Oh my goodness they look alike, I think this is Celina's painting. So, what's your relationship with Celina ? why is Celina's father your uncle ?" ask Rowenna.

"My mother married Albert Miller and gave birth to me, when my father was presumed dead while on duty my mother married my father's younger brother Robert Miller, at that time mother gave birth to Celina" brief story of Edward.

"Oh so, where's your mother now ?" ask Rowenna.

"Had passed away madam, right on Celina's wedding day" Edward's story then bowed sadly.

"How do you know about Celina's wedding ?" ask Rowenna.

"I've investigated Celina before, I was present at her wedding, I even sent her a video recording of her wedding. But shortly thereafter in critical condition, I flew to New York and met my mother, she advised to immediately hand over all property belonging to uncle Robert to his daughter. This is a list of assets belonging to uncle Robert" Edward said, handing over a piece of paper.

Mr. Robby grabbed the paper, with her. Rowenna read.

"All this belongs to Celina ? then what do you get, aren't you also your mother's son ?" ask Rowenna in surprise.

"I got a sister mistress, that was more than enough for me" Edward laughed.

"There are people who don't want treasure ?" ask Rowenna.

Edward laughs.

"All of it is the treasure of her father Celina, I also have a father who also bequeathed her property but the most important treasure in my life is my sister, Celina. Therefore I am very happy if Celina wants to settle in New York" Edward hopes.

"You want Celina to settle down in New York ? what about his family here ?" ask Rowenna.

"That's the problem, all of his father's legacy is in New York. Therefore I was forced to bring Celina, I cannot explain everything here.

It might seem easy to talk but it would be hard to believe, I'm afraid he'll refuse.

So I took him to New York to see for himself what his family life was like, how his mother loved him so much despite being separated from him" Edward said.

"Celina is hard to believe, we just find it hard to believe" Robby said.

"It's very difficult sir, Celina was shocked to hear my story. But luckily, with everything we had there showing that she wasn't a daughter who was accidentally dumped, all of our mother's relics show how Celina is someone we care about" Edward said.

Mr. Robby and Mrs. Rowenna nodded in understanding.

"Maybe until now Celina has not told me anything. That was because he himself did not know how to tell it. And moreover Celina was still not convinced to accept all of these inheritances. I promised to explain everything to the family here. Therefore after I took care of all the evidence of our family relationship I came here. I also have a Green Card license.

With that Celina can get a residence permit and settle in America" explained Edward.

"Permanent Resident license so that he can stay there without renouncing his citizenship" said Robby.

"True master with the signing of all ownership of this asset, Celina may soon be able to get a residence permit there" said Celina.

"You want to take our daughter-in-law to live with you in America and tell her to leave us ?" asked Rowenna in a high voice.

"It's all up to Celina madam, the most important thing for me is to give up her rights immediately" Edward said

While in the room, Celina tells Raffa about her pregnancy. But calmly the man questioned who the child Celina was carrying was.

Celina felt her chest ache, the girl gasped, her eyes glazed over, the news she thought Raffa was looking forward to. Precisely responded with words that pierced his heart, Raffa doubted the child that Celina conceived.

"What does it mean to ask like that ?" asked Celina with teary eyes.

"So often ask you if you've had any signs of pregnancy but we didn't get the desired answer. But after a long time with the man you declared yourself pregnant. Is it wrong to ask like that ?" ask Raffa.

Hearing that, Celina's tears could no longer be contained. Raffa said such words. Celina regrets notifying her pregnancy before Edward comes to explain their relationship.

Celina could not help herself when she saw the results of her pregnancy test because her husband and family had longed for the birth of their new offspring.

But Celina's impatience to tell her pregnancy was paid with a painful heart. It hurt, because her husband never believed her.

"Such like that how you got you pregnant ? kidnapped, held captive, in love and pregnant ?" raffa asked as she prepared to leave for the office.

Raffa came out of her room, Celina stood glued, crying. Test pack fell from her hands, Celina realized she should not be silent, despite the pain of hearing Raffa's words but she had to try to explain it.

Believe it or not, Celina had to state the truth. The girl ran after her husband who was walking down the stairs.

"Sister listen to my explanation, I never betrayed you, this is your son" Celina said as she accompanied her husband's steps.

"Oh yeah ? but I've heard your own talk. If the man wants you to leave this family, and worse, you yourself declare that your son is his son too" said Raffa who had reached the bottom floor.

"Sister, brother misunderstood that's not what he meant, he was..."

"C U K U P!!!, I don't want to hear your voice, I don't want to see your face, for me you are nothing more than a cheap woman" Raffa said walking fast and Celina chased after him.

Celina was surprised so was Raffa.

"Well, how dare you come here" said Raffa.

Edward who saw Celina crying immediately ran over and hugged her. Seeing that Raffa's riding a apogee.

"K A M U.." he said as he chased Edward.

"R A F F A" against Robby.

Raffa stopped looking at his father who he did not realize was also there.

"Edward is Celina's sister" Robby said loudly.

"He came here to explain it" Rowenna said.

Raffa turned to Edward and Celina.

"What ?"

"Since we listened to his explanation, Edward came with evidence of their relationship" Rowenna explained.

"This is how your husband treated you ? think you're a cheap girl ?" ask Edward to Celina.

Celina shook her head, she did not want Edward to think Raffa was a bad man. Although often gets bad words from Raffa but Celina knows all just because of misunderstanding.

"Let's get out of here" said Edward.

"Wait" said Raffa holding Celina's hand.

"For what ? to hurt her more ? why do words like that come out of your mouth ? Jealousy ? or from the beginning did look down on him" said Edward.

"Sister, Raffa is not like that. Brother Raffa just misunderstood, he did not mean it like that, Raffa was just jealous" said Celina.

"Celina, being jealous and looking down on it is different. Is it because of jealousy that he can demean you ? I am also a man, and I have been jealous but I have never looked down on women.

For me a woman is very valuable, for her family a woman is everything so there can be no degrading them no matter what the circumstances" explained Edward.

"I'm sorry" Raffa said softly.

"If Celina is indeed a kara, if there is no one to defend her would she accept humiliation from you for the rest of her life ? maybe not, in a short time you've dumped him. Let's go, baby" said Edward

Retracting Celina's hand, but the girl held back. Mrs. Rowenna stepped in the way.

"I'm sorry, I was wrong. I'm the one who used to look down on others. Raffa just went down my nature. I was wrong to teach him. But I know for sure Raffa loves Celina very much" Rowenna said.

Edward looked at her face. Old rowenna.

"You're lucky, there are two women defending you. There are two women who love you so try not to demean women" Edward said.

The man hugged his sister.

"Remember, you're not alone, I've brought all the documents you're entitled to. Whatever your decision, we are always ready to accept you. There, your wealth will not run out even though every day you have fun, so appreciate yourself, ok. I love you, I will often visit you" said Edward.

Then kissed his sister.

"Sir, my mistress excuse me, please take care of my beloved sister" Edward said and looked down at Raffa.

"Thank you for taking care of him and loving him all this time" Edward told Raffa.

"Sister, sister will have another niece, pray I'll be fine huh" Celina said.

"really ?" edward said surprised, not only Celina's sister but Mrs. Rowenna and Mr. Robby was surprised.

"Thank you Raffa, you're great, I salute you" said Edward patting Raffa on the shoulder.

Raffa smiled, in his heart feeling very embarrassed. The boy who had been in doubt was very much expected of his family and Celina's family.

Mrs. Rowenna went straight to Celina, hugging and kissing both of Celina's cheeks. Seeing that Edward was feeling calm, Celina loved her in-laws. The man decided to go back to New York. Saltano's family asked him to stay the night but were subtly rejected.

Celina escorts her brother to the porch, Edward asks Celina to consider accepting his inheritance.

"I can't take care of a company that big brother, who raised the company mommy and Edward's sister, I didn't do anything at all to the company" Celina said.

"Alright, I'm willing to keep running the company but on condition that you have to accept it immediately and make the company yours" said Edward.

"So you work for me ? that's not fair, I want to give the company to big brother but if big brother is not willing, I plan to split the shares. It also felt like it was still not fair," asked Celina.

"Thank you, one day Ozora will be able to run it" said Edward.

The mixed-blooded man hugged his old sister.

"If I find you sooner, oh, yes if there's anything you should call me right away. If I knew you were hiding something, I would have kidnapped you and I wouldn't have returned it here, you know !!!" edward's words were firm.

Celina nodded in doubt.

"Don't hesitate and don't even try, I still want to forgive Raffa because I also know that he loves you" Edward said.

"Do you know ? where did you know ?" ask Celina.

"I watched as he was willing to take a blow from Kevin for your sake" Edward said with a laugh.

"Sister Raffa was even willing to sacrifice his life to save me" Celina said.

"Oh yeah, great, so I didn't waste your return to her. He was shown to love you when I was just pretending to want to take you" Edward said.

"Oh yeah ? why is that ?" ask Celina.

"People will appreciate it more if he feels lost, then I want to make him feel lost, so that he knows you are very valuable to him" said Edward.

Then Edward hugged his sister again, asking Celina to take care of herself and the baby. Edward finally left home, not to be separated waved his hand at his beloved sister. So did Celina, until the car that brought her brother missing in the arms of Celina still looked at him.

Suddenly Raffa hugged her from behind and then kissed her cheek.

"How come I'm not jealous, your brother is handsome" Raffa said.

Celina caressed Raffa's face.

"Sister Raffa is more everything than anyone" Celina said.

"Oh yeah, I'm the one who fought this bad fight better than anyone ?" ask Raffa.

"Yes, even if I have a bad fight I still love you but I will not cover it from my brother, if Brother Raffa is being mean to me, I will report it to my brother" Celina threatened.

"Even the princess, I won't do that again" Raffa said.

"False promises, later Raffa will definitely repeat it again" said Celina.

"No, baby, I don't want that either. But if I'm caliph, please stay by my side and wake me up" Raffa said.

Raffa turned Celina's body in front of him and cupped the girl's face and then put their lips together. The man hugged his wife tightly, deepened his kiss and played his tongue. Raffa can't live without Celina, and vice versa.
