Two days later from the Jade Mansion. Sean really went home to his late father's house.
His arrival was greeted with an arch smile from Richard. Of course that smile was a smile full of hypocrisy, because Richard knew for sure the purpose of Sean returning to this Mansion. But, he also awaits Sean's arrival because if there is no Sean then Mark's will cannot be read.
"Welcome back my brother" greeted Richard with a sneer. He pretended to hug Sean, but of course Sean did not heed the treatment.
"You can bring all your team. I hope this residence will soon be cleared of your people because I have the absolute right to this place." Sean looked at Richard.
"Oh, why are you so confident? Is it because you're a legitimate child, making you arrogant?" richard to the Point.
"I think you understand that. You're pretty smart as it turns out." Sean patted Richard on the shoulder with a warm attitude. Though he was very sick of seeing the smile and look on the face of his stepbrother.
"Hahaha, stop dreaming! You are my father's legitimate son. But, we never know what will he leave for us!" richard said with his thoughts.
"Well, let's just wait for Uncle Sam to come, he'll tell me all about my late father's will!" said Sean. He went into his room which he had left long enough.
Sean opened his backpack, took a small vase of flowers there and placed it slowly on the nightstand next to his bed.
Sean looked at that, suddenly he remembered Gloria. He admitted that he missed Gloria. But, he knew for sure that Gloria wasn't his. He does not want to force things. In his mind, if one day Gloria came to him, he would definitely not waste the opportunity. But hope seems impossible.
"Alright, Sean! Focus on your plan to defend your rights in this Mansion. Forget Gloria!" sean's inner self-assured.
Sean got up from his seat and decided to take a shower.
Finished with the activity, the door of his room sounded knocked from outside.
Sean was shocked to find a figure similar to Owen in front of the door of his room when he had opened the door.
"Owen?" Sean looked up for a moment. "You're alive?" tanyanya.
"Sorry, Sir. I'm not the man you mean. I am Nico!"
"Nico?" Sean frowned for a moment, until he finally concluded something in his head.
"Ah, what's wrong with you visiting my room, Nico?" ask Sean. He had already guessed that Nico was Owen who had forgotten him, he knew quite broadly about his late father's and Richard's past plans regarding Owen.
"I just want to say that Mr. Richard and Mr. Mark's late lawyer have gathered in the living room and are waiting for you."
"Ah, alright." replied Sean who was watching Owen very closely. He wanted to judge the gesture and expression of this man. Is it true that Owen doesn't remember him at all?
"Hmm, Nico?!" sean exclaimed again, making Owen turn to look at him.
"Yes, Sir?"
"Didn't you feel like before today we actually met?" It seems Sean wants to test the truth about Owen's memory on him.
Owen shook his head slowly. "It looks like this is our first meeting" he replied calmly.
"Oh yeah? But your face is no stranger to me. Doesn't anyone in this mansion say the same thing as me?"
"Nothing" replied Owen.
Owen knew Sean was testing it now. He knew Sean couldn't just trust him.
"When I do, I have heard people call me by the name of Owen several times."
"Because you are Owen!" sean said directly.
Owen smiled faintly. "really? Can I trust you, Sir?" tanyakanya.
Sean chuckles. "If I knew you'd forgotten this memory, all my ways to get Gloria would be easy, Owen!" angled.
Owen knows and can judge if now Sean is testing and provoking his anger, especially Sean also carries the name Gloria, making his emotions quite ignited. But, Owen did not want to be caught red-handed at this time.
"I don't understand what you mean, Sir. Once again I say that you have been waiting in the living room."
"Yes, yeah.go!" Sean wagged his hand to drive Owen away. He still doubted if Owen had lost his memory by now?

"Absolute decision, Mr. Mark's legacy is split in two for his two sons, Mr. Sean and Mr. Richard." Uncle Sam as Markus' lawyer has delivered the decision point in accordance with the will stated.
"But, he's not my father's legitimate son, Uncle!" sean protest. He could not stop thinking, apparently his father had written a will to divide the treasure to Richard as well before the old man died.
"I only read the will written and written directly by Mr. Mark only" the lawyer said.
Sean looked at Richard's smiling face in satisfaction. He was so sick of seeing it.
"It can't, Uncle! All my father's possessions are entirely mine! My name is listed as his legitimate son, whereas Richard, no!" Sean stood up from his seat, he pointed at Richard's face which was still grinning across the street.
"Yes, you are indeed the legitimate son of Mr. Markus. But, he had written a will and this must be divided fairly," explained Uncle Sam insisted on obeying the will that had been entrusted to him.
Sean snorted loudly. He kicked the table before leaving Uncle Sam and Richard.
"No way! You're really outrageous Dad! Already having a child from an affair, it is still possible to give him a treasure! Breng sek's!" curse Sean while moving quickly towards the back of the Mansion.
Actually Sean did not bother about the treasure, just because Richard was the child of the result of his father's affair, he became unwilling if Richard also got a part. And the passage was also equally divided, making his pride as the lawfully acknowledged only son of Mark a trampling.
"You here, sir?" Owen approached Sean. This was the moment he was waiting for to slip in pitting Sean and Richard.
Sean glanced at Owen. "Do you want what?" ask him indifferently.
Owen lit a cigarette and exhaled the nicotine smoke casually next to Sean. "I think you have to accept your defeat, Mr. Sean." he said later.
"What do you mean, huh?" Sean emotions. Owen's arrival clearly wanted to ruin his mood. But this is what Owen wanted.
"I hear you don't want to inherit the throne of the late Mr. Mark." Owen starts his plan with Sean first.
"... This all sounds fair, sir! However, Mr. Mark must give Mr. Richard his due, even though he is not a legitimate child in the eyes of the state, but the fact is that Mr. Richard is willing to take his place." Owen smiled obliquely as Sean looked at him with a sharp look.
