Revenge And Desire of The Mafia
106. Girl Full of Wounds

Sorena looked at her reflection in front of the mirror. The gift from Red immediately he tried and put it on his neckline. A very beautiful diamond necklace.

He who initially refused to accept Red was now destroyed just because of a diamond necklace. She smiled happily, looking at her necklace.

Selena's daughter was not wrong in choosing a man. Red has wealth and power that is not playful.

While Brian was silent after the dinner ended. His heart was worried about many things. He looked at his wife who was still sitting in front of his dresser.

Sorena looked at Brian who did not say much after Red told her about his personal and business stories. There was something strange about her husband.

"What's wrong with you, Brian? After dinner, you shut up more. Don't you like Red?" sorena asked while removing Red's given necklace.

"It's not. But don't you think there's anything weird?" said Brian.

"Any? What's so weird?" Sorena sat next to Brian on the edge of the bed.

"You heard that, didn't you? Red's real name is Noah Albana. Is it possible ...he is that Albana family?" asked Brian with an anxious face.

"You're! Does anyone with the surname Albana have just Red? In this country there must be many who have the same name."

"But, Sorena... If it's true that he's the son of the Albana family, shouldn't Selena be with him?"

Sorena looked at her husband with a fierce look. "What did you say?! Why should we sacrifice Selena's happiness just because of your mistake with that j4lang, huh?! My daughter has nothing to do with your past! You're the one who made a mistake! And the one who has eliminated those people is your j4lang woman! Why do you have to involve Selena in this?!" amuk Sorena with hunting breath.

"Sorena..."

"Enough! I don't want to hear anything from you anymore. You never cared about Selena, you only cared about Ilena!" Sorena chose to leave the room and head to the other room.

Since the incident in the past, this husband and wife relationship is not as harmonious as before. There's a stain on their wedding. And the stain was caused by Ilena's real mother.

The innocent girl heard all the quarrels of her father and stepmother. Ilena went into her father's room. He saw his father holding his chest.

"Dad..."

His intention came to want to check the condition of the father who usually takes the drug before going to bed. But he did not expect that Sorena was also in the room. They hadn't slept in one room in a long time, and he thought this was a good start. But in fact, everything remains the same. It ends with a fight that will not end.

"Ilene..."

Ilena approached her father. "Dad's been taking medicine?"

Brian shook his head.

"I'll get you some of Dad's medicine!" Ilena took the medicine in the nightstand drawer.

He painstakingly helped Brian take his medication. It has been five years that Brian is sickly and no longer leads the company. All the work was left to his right hand, Ralph. Even so, Brian kept an eye on Ralph's movements.

"Thank you, my daughter..."

"Now I'm just resting." Ilena laid her father's body on the bed.

"Son, please don't listen to what your mother says. He's just mad at me."

Ilena smiled then nodded. He came out of Brian's room after making sure the man was asleep.

Ilena went back to her room. He looked at the dark night sky. Somehow his memory was focused on the story of his past that he had buried.

Ilena started to get sleepy. His body is very tired. Living in this house he had to work hard, because his mother and brother would not let him relax.

Ilena slid her small body. He smiled before closing his eyes. He hoped that tomorrow he could look up at the clear sky.

BYURR!

Ilena jerked from her sleep because she felt that someone was flushing her body with water.

"Wake up! You slackers!" shout Selena.

Ilena immediately got up from her sleep.

"Why-sister? What's up, brother?" asked Ilena with a look down.

"Prepare and come with me!" tell Selena.

"Where are we going, brother?"

"Don't ask too many questions! In five minutes you should be ready. Understood?!"

"Yes, Brother."

Ilena rushed straight to the bathroom. Her clothes were wet from being doused by Selena earlier.

And sure enough, in five minutes, Ilena was ready and waiting for Selena to come out of her room.

Selena stared at Ilena's appearance which remained shabby. "Good! Keep looking like a fool! Because this fits you perfectly. Come with me!"

Ilena nodded then followed Selena's steps. The girl said goodbye to her father and mother who were sitting relaxing in the living room.

"Dad, Mom, I'll go shopping for stuff for my engagement later. I'm going to get this rascal to help me" Selena said.

"Yes, Son. Buy something nice for Red. He's already bought me a very beautiful necklace for Mom."

"Yes, Mom. Just calm down!"

"Buy some new clothes for your sister, Selena."

Brian's words made Selena angry.

"Why buy clothes for him? Once ugly is always ugly! He won't fit in any clothes! He was only fit to wear an apron in the kitchen. Yes, I'm going first!"

Selena breezed away followed by Ilena. All of Selena's harsh words were commonly heard by Ilena's ears. It was like everyday food for him. He was not angry or protesting. His heart has been frozen since he returned home. And he had to do it to survive.

Selena went to some of her boutique subscriptions. He bought a lot of clothes for himself. Not to forget, she also chose the dress she will wear at the engagement party which will be held in three days.

Red himself wanted to speed up the engagement. Selena and her family certainly don't mind. The Adams family got the perfect son-in-law. Everyone must be jealous of him.

The little girl staggered because she could not carry many things that Selena bought. Luckily Tom, the speedy driver helped him.

"Thank you, Tom," said Ilena kindly. Yes, Ilena is known as a friendly girl. He also did not choose friends.

"Together, Miss. Let me take him. I'll take this to the car. Miss, just follow Miss." Tom blinked one eye. This young man is the son of Monica and Raff.

Ilena nodded and followed her sister back. Tom looks at Ilena who never complains with all her brother's attitude.

"What is your heart made of, miss? You've been seriously injured but you can still smile," said Tom.

Ilena stared at the row of clothes that were so beautiful in the eyes. Such a lovely party dress. Ilena gawked in disbelief if something like this was very real.

Ilena's hand stretched out to touch the silk dress.

"That's good," muttered Ilena.

"Ehem! You should know yourself! Girls like you don't deserve to wear a dress like this!" ejek Selena's.

Ilena immediately lowered her face.

"Hmm, okay. Since you've been with me all day, then I'll buy you a dress as a gift."

Ilena's eyes sparkled with pleasure. "Thank you, Brother."

"Yes, no need to thank me. You deserve it. Please find the cheapest dress here for my servant!" selena orders one of the boutique employees.

Ilena who was smiling happily suddenly kept silent. She thought she'd get that nice silk dress. But Ilena remained grateful. That means Selena still considers him to exist even if only as her servant.

Tired of shopping, they returned home. Selena again ordered Ilena to prepare bath water for her. The girl obediently stepped into Selena's room.

Ilena went straight to the bathroom and filled the bathtub with warm water. Once felt enough, Ilena sprinkled the typical vanilla fragrance Selena likes.

Ilena washed her hands then came out of the bathroom. Suddenly Ilena's eyes were fixed on a photo that was on top of Selena's nightstand. It was a picture of her brother with a man.

"So, this is the man who came yesterday? How handsome. Why does his face look so familiar?"

For a moment Ilena looked at the handsome face of Red who was beside Selena. Yesterday he could not see clearly Red because Selena told him to keep his head down.

Not wanting Selena to know what she was doing, Ilena immediately put back the photo and immediately came out of her sister's room.

At her residence, Red tells her engagement plans with Selena that will be held in two days to her two younger siblings. Both Blue and Yoona are shocked by her brother's decision. They think Red is in too much of a hurry to make a decision.

But then again, no one dared to argue against a Red. He is the brother and leader of this house. He made this family what it is today. Full of power and wealth. Red's already taken them away from the crash. And Red himself thinks Selen is the hero of his life.

Yoona looks at each other with Blue. They wanted to protest but one word could not even get out of their lips.

"Thank you for giving me and Selena your blessing. I'm going to see Daddy. You guys continue your dinner!" Red got up from his chair and walked towards his father's room.

Yoona and Blue looked at each other again. "Sister! Who gave him his blessing?!" yoona Sulu.

"Then you want to protest him?" ask Blue back.

"Ish, brother!" Yoona scowls.

"You think anyone can change that stubborn man's decision? I can't, Pinky Pie! Never mind, we'll take Red's decision. Let's just hope Selena's the girl from Red's past."

Blue moves out of the dining table and leaves Yoona who is still upset by her brother's decision.

On the other hand, Red arrived at Eldric's room and sat down beside the old man's bed. The man who used to be dashing and feared by many now lay helpless. It's rare that Red can talk normally with Eldric.

This man holds a deep sorrow when the loss of his wife to make him depressed. The inability to control emotions makes it still often raging until now.

The lives of these three brothers were very difficult a few years ago. Losing a lot of possessions and loved ones makes them have to strengthen their hearts in order to face the world. And of the three, Red must be the strongest to sustain the lives of his father and two younger siblings.

"Daddy.." - Red shrewdly grasped his father's hand.

"I found it, Dad. The girl I've been looking for all this time. The girl who made me rise from the brink. I'm getting engaged to him. After that we will get married, and live happily. I'm asking for your blessing, Dad..."

Red exits Eldric's room and heads to the mini bar in the mansion. There he meets Blue who is sipping wine alone.

"You here?" tanya Red patted Blue on the shoulder.

"yeah. How's Daddy doing?" ask Blue back.

"Still the same. Without response and just closing my eyes."

Red poured the wine into the small glass available there.

"So, you're gonna be part of the Adams family, huh?!" asked Blue with a smile.

"Hmm, that's how it is" Red answered and sipped his drink.

"You sure, Red? Are you sure Selena is that girl? The little girl who helped you and scolded you? He's mad at you for trying to disappear and he doesn't accept. Life is hard, but what good is it to die? Will dying solve your problems? I remember you always telling me about him. Just hearing it I know that the girl's life is just as miserable as yours! He is also full of wounds just like you! But he strengthened you and asked you to continue living. Are you sure that girl is Selena? A famous model, the daughter of wealthy businessman Brian Adams. Is that him, Red?!" Blue slightly raised her tone.

"What do you mean by that question, Blue? That's really him! He is Purple!" firmly Red.

"Isn't it weird why he could be in that abandoned old building? She's the daughter of a rich family, Red. What is he doing in a place like that? Think about it, Red!" Blue patted Red on the shoulder and then passed.

After the conversation was with Blue in his new mini home, now Red who had laid down his tired body can only be silent looking at the ceiling of his room. Her eyes were reluctant to get shut at the thought of all of Blue's words.

"If Selena wasn't Purple, where could she get that diary?" lirih Red's.

His eyes were heavy and now he was closed. In his sleep, as if it were real, Red met the little girl. The little girl who gave him the courage to face this cruel life.

"His life is full of wounds. Yes, the girl was also injured. Same like me! The girl was carrying a heavy burden. I read it, I read the diary... I remember who he was..."

" Hosh, hosh, hosh!" Red caught his hunting breath. He wiped the sweat that soaked his temple.

Red closed his eyes remembering the dream he had just experienced. The dream felt very real. He met the little girl. Girl with shady yet sharp eyes. There were many wounds embedded in the look of his eyes.

"Is that really you, Selena?" red Mumbles.
