Moving On
Honesty Emelie

Emelie nods her head slowly, “Quite successful.”

“I don't want to find any problems with you. You already let me go last night. Why should I arrest me again? you look a good man but in a moment you turn into a very scary man.” Emelie continued her words.

“Don't want to find a problem? Can you explain to me. Why does the Monaco Police want you to return to the city immediately?” Zeroun put the gun back on the table.

Emelie was stunned to hear Zeroun's words. The woman had already guessed in her heart. If Zeroun will indeed get into trouble when he brings himself out of Monaco.

“They want to sell me. I told you I was just a beggar. In that city, beggars would be sold into slavery. The police officer cooperated with several secret agents.”

Emelie lied about her identity. But the woman was telling the truth about the human trafficking that took place in Monaco. There are not many women in the city. The city was filled with male gender. Only about 15 percent of women in the city. For the most part, weak women in Monaco will be sold to secret agents to become slaves.

Zeroun believed Emelie's words. Previously the man had already known, not to mention some women in Monaco.

“They don't want me to tell the world their cunning deeds. That's why they wanted to arrest me. When it has managed to find me, they will kill me.” Emelie lowered her head. Put on a sad face. I hope Zeroun and Luke believe the story.

The mobile phone that was lying on the table rang. The man looked at his phone before picking up the phone. Zeroun frowned, as he saw a foreign number appear on his phone screen.

“Who is this?” asked Zeroun with a dislike face.

[Have you forgotten your new best friend, Zeroun Zein?] prince Damian from a distance.

“Prince Damian,” Zeroun continued with a slightly confused face.

[Yes, you are a great person. You can recognize a person only by voice.] There was the crisp laughter of Prince Damian from a distance.

Emelie just kept quiet to listen to the conversation of the two men. He was more and more convinced that Zeroun Zein already knew his true identity.

I guessed it from the beginning. This man is already working with Prince Damian. You guys, no one can be trusted. Looks like my vacation in Hong Kong is coming to an end.

Emelie complains in the heart with a resigned face. If Prince Damian had intervened directly, the woman would not have been able to run away again. He could only resign, following Prince Damian home.

“Is there something wrong with our business? to make Prince Damian must contact me directly.” Zeroun looked at Emelie's face that was still down.

[Tonight I will arrive in Hong Kong for a walk. Do you mind if I visit your home, Mr Zeroun Zein? I heard in your house there is something interesting.]

“Of course, I don't mind. You can come whenever you like. The door of this house is always open to welcome you, Prince Damian.”

[All right, I'll see you tonight. Mr. Zeroun Zein. I hope you take good care of him.] Call disconnected.

Zeroun stared at his phone screen with a serious face before putting the phone on the table.

“Will a Prince intervene directly to pick up a beggar?" Zeroun raised one eyebrow.

"Is that not too risky for his reputation?” Zeroun leaned against the sofa with both hands placed on the back of the sofa.

“I don't want to say anything to you. I'll be home with the guy later that night. Everyone in this world is the same!” Emelie moved from her seat.

“Jaga your greeting!” luke shouted not to accept.

“What? what should I take care of? there are thousands of people I have met and they are all the same. For the sake of money willingly dispel his conscience as a human being, even,”

“Stop your greeting!” Luke walks to punish Emelie.

Zeroun raised one hand to stop Luke. The man got up from his seat, looking at Emelie's face intently.

“Then, what should I do? Prince Damian asked me to help take care of you. As for you, do you have to ask me for help to protect you?” zeroun said so calmly.

Emelie was stunned to hear Zeroun's words. It never occurred to him that Zeroun would say such a thing.

Zeroun walked closer to Emelie's position.

“You're right. Almost everyone in the world lives with money. So naturally, if everyone is willing to do anything for money. But, to the conscience you just said it was.” Zeroun squinted both of his eyeballs.

“If you have no conscience, I have left you lying on the streets of Monaco. Or there's a second option, I hand you the Monaco police who really wants you.” Zeroun was very close to Emelie. The faces of the two of them stared at each other.

Emelie could no longer put out a word. The woman could only speak a thousand languages.

“Lukas, brackets this woman in the room. I'll hand it to Prince Damian tonight.” Zeroun moved away from his position. The man walked away towards the door without caring anymore about Emelie.

Emelie looked at Zeroun's back with a sad face.

“I'm Princess Emelie of the United Kingdom. I am the bride of Prince Damian who ran away during the wedding.” A single drop of dripping tears drenched Emelie's face.

Zeroun stopped his footsteps. But, his body had not turned around. The man preferred to listen to Emelie's story while turning his back on her.

“I don't want to get married this fast. I just want to have fun outside. Surround the world with complete freedom. Our marriage is an arranged marriage of the two kingdoms for the benefit of each. This marriage is hurting me. I just want to marry the man I love. But, it's all for nothing. If the King has already decided on a man who matches the Princess they have. So, in a short time the wedding will happen.” Emelie took a deep breath that felt heavy.removing a few drops of her tears.

“I never bothered about that matchmaking again. But, before marriage I just want to roam free. Because I knew, after I got married, I would be a bird in a golden cage. Life is a treasure but will never be able to feel happiness.”

Emelie again sat down on the sofa that she had sat on. Her legs felt very weak as the woman revealed her heart.

Zeroun no longer put out a lot of words. The man pulled the door to leave Emelie and Luke inside the spacious room. Luke stared at Zeroun's departure. Emelie's explanation was pretty clear by then.

“Nona, come with me.” Luke walked up to Emelia to bring the woman into the room.

Emelie looked up at Luke. With a tired face, he stood up. A smile full of bitterness he carved to cover his heart that was filled with wounds. Emelie followed Luke's steps leaving the room. The woman was already resigned to her current destiny.

One thing still lingers in his memory. Zeroun Zein is a good man. Not the same as other men.

Do I have to beg him right now so he can help me? Nevermind, forget. I don't want to linger in a creepy guy's house like this guy.
