Not the Successor to the Throne

Not the Successor to the Throne
Chapters 20. Doubt


Eiger took a few steps back. He better not continue the conversation that he thinks is not important. However, before Eiger actually left his papa, he had slipped a message that was quite telling for the man.


"Not all deeds can be judged by money, Pa."


Eiger left the hotel ballroom to go home. Blerim who had just approached Balthis had no idea that Eiger had chosen to go home first. Blerim should focus on teaching her brother a lesson.


"Happy? Brother is indeed like a person who does not know in profit!" blerim Lips.


"Enough, Blerim! I'm gonna close this show. We continue at the mansion!"


Balthis was not satisfied to give a lesson to his sister. Blerim has the same feeling. He had to make Balthis regret all his deeds and words.


After the show, they decided to go home. Now, they're gathered in the living room, without the Eiger. Eiger somehow went home. There was no word of farewell that Eiger told all Willard's families. Then Balthis kicked down the table of the room.


"You!" Balthis pointed to Blerim. "You're the one who made this plan? You made sure that he would come to help me, didn't you? You made it look like this was a natural occurrence, but you had planned it pretty carefully, right?"


Blerim remained calm. He has done nothing wrong that he is accused of. So, why bother defending himself if in fact he is not the culprit.


"Jawab, Blerim!" a very rough clash was thrown at his sister.


From a long time ago, Blerim was a typical man who never left problems just like that. There is only one problem left with the excuse of a mistake. That one problem alone made Blerim run away from reality. Only he knew, not even the entire Willard family knew.


"The same with the Eiger. He and I did not come together to make any plans. If Eiger happens to be there, it means he still has the ethics and responsibility to help you, brother. Imagine if he didn't come? Who else are you going to blame? Me? David's? Or, who else?"


Sometimes what Blerim says is true. It depends on the situation for Balthis as well. Tonight, it's not a coincidence.


"Did you also want us to drive out like Eiger?" ask Jean. The woman could not bear to see her husband in a corner.


"Sister-in-law, please don't treat me like that! I'm not the Eiger and I'm still part of Willard's blood directly."


Jean's getting upset. Actually he should be a lot grateful for marrying the figure of Balthis who is quiet, rather than his sister-in-law who is increasingly here to talk a lot.


"You?" Jean's anger was also stirred.


"Enough!" scold David. "When will you fight? Can't you think of a plan for a few more months? There's only one choice. Eiger or Elov ascended the throne!"


For a moment Balthis and Jean softened. Blerim remains as usual. Calm and sometimes washed away.


"Darling, David was right. How's your man?"


Balthis. He has spent enough money to know Elov's whereabouts. However, none of his men gave definitive information. They all seemed to play around with his family to get a lot of benefits.


"You can't answer that, brother?" ask Blerim.


Had he been told to fight with Balthis, Blerim whenever ready. In fact, if you can choose better he took a gun and then shot a bullet into the head of his brother. So that the man realized that the existence of Elov no longer exists in this world. That's what Blerim believes right now.


Balthis' words were more heartbreaking when he found out that the middle-aged man accused him of conspiring with the Uncle. In addition, its sincerity is rewarded with sheets of paper that are not even needed at all. Even though he really needs.


The Eiger damaged the order of the tie that had been neatly attached to his neck. Maybe this is what to do, which is to change his appearance. Eiger must instill a mindset that he is no longer part of Willard.


"Why am I stuck in that family drama? I shouldn't have come!"


Regret does grieve him, but the memory of the family's kindness continues to deny that what he did was right. Just give back, nothing more!


Eiger tried to sit on a park bench before returning to the boarding house he rented. His appearance was chaotic, plus his stomach began to rumble because it did not eat properly. Just a small plate of sweet dessert would not be able to sustain his current hunger.


One of the right ways is to go home to the hostel, then look for the nearest supermarket. He had to buy some food to cook.


Eiger ran to feel his freedom. This was more than anything he felt while in the mansion with different rules and flying hours. However, this time he was free to do anything including running and shouting one sentence of freedom.


"I'm free!" The voice was quite loudly spoken by a man like Eiger who had a firm voice.


It seems that his freedom was stopped when he accidentally hit a girl to fall into a typical garden paving not far from the Eiger's seat.


"Ouch!" The girl was stirring as her knees clashed with the garden paving. His sense of unease was not over, coupled with the ridiculous actions of a man who suddenly bumped into him.


Eiger tried to help the girl. He cannot escape responsibility.


"Here I help!" Eiger extended her hand.


Actually the girl refused, but Eiger immediately pulled the girl's hand without asking for approval again.


"I'm sorry" said Eiger. He took the girl to a garden chair illuminated by night lights.


"You?" The girl seemed to realize something. More precisely he knew the man who hit him.


Eiger was originally centered on the injured girl's legs, but now has to look up sharply at the girl who recognized her.


"You?" Eiger just realized it. He recognized the girl. Although not too close, but certainly they can be friends well.


"Why are you here?" ask Eiger.


"I'm lost. I need lodging, but I didn't find it at all. I want to go home, but no vehicle will take me back."


Like thirst finding its oasis. Such was the shadow of the girl to the man she met. However, the girl's gaze looked different when she saw the Eiger was in a mess.


"Are you that man?"


Yes, the girl needed to make sure that the man she was meeting right now was the same person she was at the lake the other day. There are many doubts about him. Moreover, the men he met at the lake at that time always looked neat by carrying a luxury car.
