Lucius narrowed behind the sunglasses he was wearing towards the plane that was waiting for him. So also the big bear who was his sister-in-law was showing off. A private plane was ready to take Lucius comfortably during the flight.
"Two of your guards are waiting. You just have to go up and go" said Lance.
Lucius turned his head and took off the sunglasses he was wearing, the lightning in his black eyes was brilliant like a diamond lightning in his left ear.
"What did he say when he told you about this plane?" ask Lucius.
Lance could not help his smile. Mr. Mike forces Lance to accept his offer to arrange Lucius' departure. Mike keeps Lance from using commercial flights.
"Mr Mike said, tell 'My best-looking brother-in-law' to enjoy a luxurious and comfortable flight, because this is only a small thing for the Eliazar family who are members of the Langton clan's extended family." said Lance, without reducing or adding the slightest words spoken by Miss Regina's husband. Lance still had an amused smile on the gray-eyed man's face when he asked Lance to deliver his message to Lord Lucius.
"Huh! ... He's showing off!" cetus Lucius.
"I think He was intentional, Sir," said Lance with an amused smile.
"Yes ..just enjoy the facilities of a rich sister-in-law. I go Lance ... arrange everything here well. Call me regularly ... tell me everything, including my family."
Lance nodded, then slightly bowed respectfully to Lucius who stepped towards the plane. The master turned his head briefly towards him before finally stepping back on the plane that was about to take him.

It was already afternoon when Lucius and his two man bodyguards, Brad and Santoz reached the hotel.
Reservations are arranged by Lance. The two men accompanying Lucius of course did not come together with him. Lucius did everything himself, the two men pretending to be two strangers Lucius didn't know, they were just guarding and watching Lucius from afar.
Lucius felt that something like this was actually unnecessary. But free he denies Lance, his loyal right hand only wants him to be safe. So Lucius just let this go.
After taking a bath and resting on his soft bed, Lucius looked at his cell phone and remembered Regina's words so he could call when he arrived.
Well ... he has not arrived at the plantation, just arrived at the nearest city that can be reached by flight. Lucius had to drive again by car to reach the location of their land.
Lucius picks up his phone and makes a video call with Regina. After a while, Reggie and his niece Marie appear on the screen. Marie's large eyes widened and looked at her uncle's face on the mobile screen.
Story: Marinna Eliazar or Marie
"Halo Uncle .. You have arrived apparently," said Reggie.
"Yes .. I had to drive another two hours to reach the plantation. So I'll be there tomorrow. Tonight I'll rest in the hotel first."
"Have you had dinner?"
"Not .. I just took a shower and took a break. I'm going down and out of the hotel, looking for a unique dinner typical of this town."
"Don't eat recklessly, Uncle. Your stomach can hurt." Reggie moved Marie's hand as if the baby was waving towards her Uncle.
"You're getting funny .. Your hair is getting thicker and shiny, Marie."
"It's more like your hair, Uncle Lucius,"
Lucius was very pleased to hear his brother's words.
"And my face looks more like Daddy's" Reggie said again in an amused tone.
Lucius laughed, "What would it be like if you grew up later, Marie ...."
Mike's voice calling Regina was loud, his sister looked back and smiled apologetically.
"Mike called me, brother. We'll talk later, okay ...."
"Yes .. go. I'll also go get dinner."
Lucius then turned off his phone. He got out of bed and took his wallet. Lucius stuffed his wallet into the bag of jeans he was wearing. Then he picked up the t-shirt in the suitcase that he accidentally did not unload because tomorrow he will soon come out and continue his journey back.
After wearing a black parka jacket without being draped into his body, Lucius took out a cell phone and put it in his jacket pocket. Then he got out of the room and went to get dinner.
I don't need to tell Brad and Santoz. Let them rest. After all, it does not feel free to be followed by the two people. Lucius decided inwardly to go alone without telling his guards.

Lucius stood among the crowd of people who were also watching. Up ahead, two pairs of dancers were jumping, clapping and spinning, dancing a folk dance that Lucius knew about Tarantella.
"Brava!" the scream echoed as the music grew more energetic and the male dancers played female dancers while continuing to jump. Lucius unconsciously clapped and laughed, carried away by the cheerful and carefree atmosphere presented by the dancers.
But when someone pulled something from the parka bag he was wearing, Lucius turned his head and found a teenage boy had run after reaching into something from his pocket.
Lucius realized the teenage boy had pickpocketed his cell phone. Reflexes he ran and chased, initially he had a little trouble among the crowd. But the longer the boy got closer, Lucius was sure he would be able to catch him any minute.
He chased up to an alley, after entering the narrow alley, the teenage boy stopped running. He turned and waited for Lucius.
"You! Little thief! Give me my phone!" lucius fierce.
The boy ruffled his waist and looked at Lucius with his dirty face cynically.
"Take it yourself if you can, you idiot!" then the boy was excited, had not had time to bluff again and moved to catch the boy, Lucius felt a hard object hit hard on his head. He staggered forward and held the back of his head before finally falling down. The impact of the hard beam made him lose consciousness instantly. Lucius was face down with his cheeks stuck to the ground and eyes closed. The torn wound on his head started to drain the blood flowing making red traces on his cheeks before finally falling to the ground.
"Check pockets. Take all that can be taken" said a man who was the leader of the gang.
Another man began to groan around Lucius' body. He pulled the purse out of the jeans Lucius was wearing and threw it at the leader.
"May I ask for the jacket he wears?" the teenage boy who was in charge of finding the target and taking him to a deserted place said to the man who had taken the wallet.
"Of course, take luiz .. your work is good. There's a lot of cash here" their leader replied. Then Lucius was stripped away, he was pulled on his back, his long hair strewn over the ground, partly covering his neck and jaw. The parka jacket and t-shirt he was wearing was opened and picked up. Afterwards the thieves began to step away, leaving his body flat on the ground in the narrow alley in a fainting state.
"Did he die?" luiz asked, the boy was already wearing a new oversized parka jacket on his body.
"No. .. she fainted. Let it go, let's get out of here" said the thief leader with a happy heart because he had obtained easy prey that night.

Alison holds her sleeping sister, repeatedly sagging, Alan is very tired, he is forced to follow Ally wherever Ally works. Ally had no place to leave her sister while she worked.
He was lucky because Madam Gavany allowed him to bring Alan. Madam's restaurant is always crowded and needs a dishwasher who wants to work all day like him.
The workers began to come to Madam's place from the morning to find breakfast, then the afternoon will be more crowded, the night is the peak. The rhythm of work will decrease after almost midnight.
Alison was able to work until night because the salary she received was very good. Could pay for the restroom in the shabby alley he currently lives in. He also gets three meals a day from restaurants so he no longer needs to buy.
Luckily again, Madam understood that she had to bring her sister while working. Even little Alan was very helpful, the boy was not naughty, he would wait for Alison to work in the corner of the kitchen without disturbing anyone. Only accompanied by a kitten owned by Madam who was in the corner of the kitchen. Alan even helped take care of the little cat by cleaning its cage and feeding it.
"You must be very tired, Alan," whispered Alison sadly.
Entering the narrow alley of his residence, Alison immediately rushed over, the situation outside the alley rather dark. Upon his arrival at the door of the shanty building where his room was in one of the small-sized rooms rented there, he saw a scene that made him retreat in surprise.
Alison squinted her eyes.The naked body of the man was lying just like that on the dusty dry ground not far from the door of the building. The man was wearing only Jeans pants. The dark atmosphere made Alison have trouble seeing clearly.
What stain looks blackened on the man's face? is that blood? he seems unconscious ... Alison moved quickly and approached. To his surprise he realized the entire body of the man was full of scarred scars that looked terrible.
"Sir ...." Alison called out, then slowly crouched down and shook the man's shoulder with one hand.
Alison checked and realized the man had fainted and his head seemed to be injured. He looked towards the door of the building, then towards Alan in his arms, lastly towards the long-haired man who had fainted. Think about the next action he will take.
