“Many enemies are after my wealth, let alone you are a stranger that I brought into my life.” Many threats would come from the outside if Jerricco was not careful, the enemy could have gone in to seize all the wealth in his hands.
“What enemies of master will be targeting me too?” Damara was a little afraid to hear Jerricco had enemies, he was afraid like in the movies that used all means to take his captives.
“If they knew, maybe you would be their main target.” This is why Jerricco did not publicize his marriage to Damara. Moreover, there is no love between them, it could be the enemy who is after him deliberately using Damara.
Damara's body went limp as soon as Jerricco said, it was not just Jerricco's past that threatened his happiness but the people out there.
Jerricco took Damara into his arms, “You'll be safe with me.”
Damara looked up at Jerricco's sad looking face. “Master was delirious back then, I heard the master ask him to endure was he wretched because of the enemy master?”
Jerricco clutched Damara's body tighter, “Do you want to hear it?”
“I want to hear it sir.” Damara answered with complete confidence, wanting to know what really happened to Jerricco and Mira.
Jerricco breathes in, he convinces himself to tell the dark story that took Mira's life.
_-Flashback-_
A quiet and lonely night, a car enters the luxurious home of one of the world's sixth wealthy men. The driver opened the door for his employer.
Jerricco got out of the car with Mira, he saw Mira's pale face. He tightly grasped Mira's hand, not forgetting the sweet smile he displayed so that Mira felt calm.
Mira was a little relieved, she was trying to win her pounding heart. Feelings of anxiety, as well as fear continue to envelop him.
The burly man dressed in all black lined up neatly at the main door.
“I want to meet Papa,” said Mira to the head of the guard who is now staring at her.
The head guard walked in, followed by Mira and Jerricco. They were taken to a special room belonging to Mr. Fernandez.
Jerricco felt Mira's hand getting tighter, he knew full well that they were in the tiger's cage.
“What did you come here for, miss Amira Rodrigze?” Fernandez grinned at the nervousness of her daughter.
Fernandez's sharp gaze he gave to the man beside his daughter. While Jerricco only gave his flat face, there was hatred in his heart if he saw Fernandez's face.
Fernandez got up from his seat and walked over to Jerricco and Mira. Fernandez standing right in front of Jerricco, “You defied death apparently.”
“I came here to ask for your blessing mr Fernandez.” A stern voice rang out clearly in Fernandez' ear.
“Get out all your weapons!”
Mira turned to Jerricco and shook her head, knowing who her father was.
The gun behind his tuxedo, Jerricco took it out. Fernandez smiled with satisfaction at Jerricco's firearm.
Fernandez walked towards the row of sword collections neatly arranged on the walls of his practice room.
“Papa don't mess around,” snapped Mira. He knew that Jerricco was not very good at using swords.
Fernandez ignored his daughter's remarks, throwing a katana sword at Jerricco. A grin was clearly imprinted as he watched Jerricco swiftly capture the sword of his gift which he threw.
The Katana sword was a sword used by the Samurai in medieval Japan.
Mira swallowed her saliva, her legs were trembling, her body felt limp. He pulled Jerricco's arm, “Do not,” please Mira while shaking her head.
Jerricco gives a smile to his girlfriend, “Keep, I'll be fine.”
