Not the Successor to the Throne

Not the Successor to the Throne
Chapters 11. Look Rich


After experiencing a stressful event, everyone in the mansion was even more cautious. They've been asked to give more oversight to Jean. The woman should not be left alone.


Eiger felt sorry for her mother. The woman who had always been considered as a protector for him had to be like this. Eiger can't feel how longing a mother is for her biological child, but Eiger puts herself as a child who misses her parents. So heavy.


The night mood is getting late. After dinner, Balthis realized one thing. His two younger siblings were not in the mansion, even they did not inform him at all.


"Honey, where are you going?" jean asked as he watched Balthis get out of bed.


"I'm going to Eiger's room for a minute."


Jean's eyes showed dislike.


"Don't be a child! I just want to know about Blerim and David. I tried to contact him, but there was no news at all."


"Go!" Jean tried to understand. It was not unusual for the two to come home late.


Balthis tried to listen to Blerim. All this time he's been too close to the Eiger. So, what's wrong if tonight she needs the kid.


Arriving at his son's doorstep, Balthis hesitated a little. It was indeed impressed that he licked his own spit. Finally he knocked on the door of the room. Before long, Eiger came out still wearing his clothes at dinner last night.


"Papa. What's up?"


The Eiger and Balthis positions are currently on the doorstep. Eiger actually wanted to ask her papa to come in, but was afraid of getting a rejection.


"Papa wants to ask you. Do you know where Uncle Blerim went?"


That question is what Eiger is thinking too. He tried to contact Blerim's phone, but until now there was no answer. There was a bit of worry that Eiger couldn't express to Blerim.


"No, Pa. He just said there was business with Uncle David. I think Papa knows where it's going."


For a moment Balthis's memory fell on Blerim. Several times the man tried to pry information about his past. He also explained about Elov being brought by the mafia. Its existence is also difficult to detect.


Balthis's feelings were suddenly unpleasant. He tries to figure out Blerim's whereabouts from his other staff. Balthis seems to be contacting someone. After getting an answer, Balthis immediately terminated his phone connection.


"Pa, how?" ask Eiger. He also seemed to be unsettled thinking about his uncle.


"They're not the same as us, Eiger. Where did it go?"


During the Willard family, Blerim and David must have been limited to visiting the Nightclub. That's not too often either. According to his father's story, after a tragedy several decades ago, Blerim and David rarely return to the place.


"I'll find him, Pa. Better Papa in the mansion with mom. Mama needs Papa's support right now. I'm worried that Mama's gonna misunderstand us again, Pa."


"Thank you." That's all Balthis told the Eiger.


Eiger returned to his room. He changed his clothes with his shirt and jeans. Not to forget, he also took a jacket that was stored neatly in his wardrobe. He also took the car keys, wallet, and some other necessary equipment.


Eiger came out of his room. He no longer saw his father there. It doesn't matter anymore that he has to say goodbye to them. Most importantly right now he had to find his two uncles who had yet to return home.


Hurry up and get to the car garage. As usual, he will use a car that has been obtained from his extended family. If he had, he considered himself perfect. Has a full family, abundant wealth, and a beautiful lover. However, right now just assume he is repaying his debt to this family.


"Tonight I didn't come home. Tell papa or mama if they're looking for me." Eiger relayed the message to the mansion's gatekeeper.


The car came out of the courtyard of the mansion, splitting the increasingly crowded city streets at night. The Eiger has no purpose, but there must be a place where it is meant to be.


"Where did Uncle Blerim go? I've tried calling, but there's no answer. Did he go somewhere to find information about Elov? But, I don't know where to look, even Uncle Blerim didn't say goodbye to me. He's impressed to hide something."


The road leads the Eiger back to a lake he visited that night. It felt like this lake had become an opium for him.


"Why did I get here?" ask Eiger to himself. He decided to go down and sit on the hood of his car.


As far as the eye can see, the expanse of lake water at night is very calm. The atmosphere was peaceful as some people were already seen leaving the place.


The night breeze brought him a breath of perfume that was already lingering in his memory. The owner of the perfume she had met that morning.


Zoe, the owner of the beautiful name that got the Eiger slapped. He needs the girl at the right time.


"Zoe!" his yell. Eiger had to make sure the girl was there. Not just hallucinations alone because of confusion looking for the existence of Blerim and David.


The beautiful girl who felt called by her name then came to the source of the voice. Indeed, the existence of Zoe is not far from the Eiger car park.


"You? Why are they here again? Oh, or are you going to kill yourself here?"


Eiger remained calm getting the barrage of questions. He tried to communicate well with the girl. Who knows after chatting for a moment, Eiger gets a hint of his uncle's whereabouts.


"Eitherway. This car brought me here."


"Ck, you weird guy!"


"Listen to me for a moment! Do you think if someone leaves a child, it will usually be deposited where?"


"An orphanage. Why why?"


"It's okay. I'm just asking. Oh yeah, do you think that a guy over 40 would probably go anywhere other than a nightclub?"


Zoe shook her head. He doesn't know. Never mind the Nightclub, any place men come to almost never known to him.


"Where do I know. Am I a psychic?" ask Zoe.


The girl was right too. However, there was something that he wanted to share with her. Maybe this is why the Eiger came to this place.


"Oh, yeah. Actually I want to thank you."


"For what?"


"Because you've listened to me. In exchange, I want us to be friends. How's it?" ask Eiger.


Zoe turned her head for a moment towards the man who was estimated to be almost 30 years old. However, his gaze was not on that alone. From his appearance it seems that Eiger is the son of a rich man.


"It's not that easy, sir. I don't trust rich men very much. Yeah, you know for yourself the reason women like me."


Eiger smiled for a moment. It was a few days ago that Eiger was very rich, but after the incident at that time, he was like a child who tried to return the favor to his extended family.
