Imperfection
Chapter 40
"What if the marriage is accelerated and I'm going to the rector's office to request that my papers not be transferred to Nevada. It would be far from Victoria," murmured Albert himself without anyone hearing it.
He hurried to lay down his tired body and closed his eyes to sleep.
Good night, Girl...,

At the Herman house.
"We're going to make an arrest tomorrow morning, and I think Oscar planning this should be arrested" one of the officers said.
"But the evidence we have is not yet strong" said one of them.
Herman immediately refuted their conversation, "I don't think it's necessary. While we're going to gather evidence that what he's doing is unlicensed, I'm going to sacrifice my son to hasten his marriage to Albert Amborrse."
"Didn't that hurt her too much? Actually we have no right to interfere in your household affairs, if it is good for your family, then just do it. But if you need our help, we're ready to help" said one.
"alright. I think I need something to fix my front door. Thank you for your help tonight" Herman said,
They decided to go to rest after running around in the dark of the night to chase the target.
The next day, Roberto who had already been seen at the dinner table did a series of routines. Mary, who had woken up from her sleep because she was accompanying her daughter, came out of the room. He saw Roberto reading the newspaper and a cup of hot coffee still puffing his smoke up. The smell of the coffee was smelled to where he was standing. Soon, Max came out of his room. He saw his mother who was dumb for nothing.
"Mother? What are you doing standing here?"
Instantly the voice broke Mary's daydream. He recalled that Herman, who was still in their home, faced danger alone. He then turns his eyes right in front of Max.
The sound of stomping footsteps on the tile of the house, made Roberto take down a little newspaper covering his entire head and look at Maria and Max walking towards him.
"Good morning, Mr. Roberto," said Mary, while Max simply lowered his head in a sign of respect.
"Please. I've prepared breakfast for you. By the way where's the girl? Did he not wake up for breakfast?" ask Roberto.
"So soon he will be out of his room" said Maria, who pulled the seat in front of Roberto on the right.
Before long Mr. Roberto asked, The girl came out of her room. He took his foot to the table where his mother, Max, and Mr. Roberto were there. He didn't see Albert there, so he asked him where Albert was.
"Good morning, sir," he passed Roberto as he greeted him.
"Good morning. Oh yeah, please don't call me, sir. Just call me dad. I'm gonna be your father-in-law, right? And Maria, you can also call me names" Roberto said.
The girl nodded her head in a sign of assuring her mother and even Max himself.
"alright. I better get to the store. I had a delivery schedule this morning" Roberto folded his newspaper and sandwiched it between his arms and body.
"Dad, wait..," cried Albert just out of his room.
