The Dead CINDERELLA's
EPS. 100. What's again?

The news of Arthur and Sierra's marriage exploded directly into the public. Be it newspapers, television stations and online media, all talk about their wedding in Bali.

And arriving, photos of their wedding photos also circulated. Who else did it, of course, Arthur who commissioned Malvin to spread the wedding photos. And the news even reached the ears of Carine who was in prison.

" Good, in this way.. The world will know, Sierra is mine. She's Arthur Edward's wife." Arthur was pleased.

Daniel also saw the wedding photo, where apparently Sierra looks so beautiful and happy. He realized that he could never make Sierra smile.

"OH!! UHUK!! UHUK!! Hemm... Will I not even get an apology from her until I die?" Mumbled Daniel.

The more days, somehow Daniel's condition is getting worse. He who was originally healthy only, suddenly attacked with a cough. Even now his vision is myopic. Though Daniel never had a history of pain before, he only experienced high blood. He also controls his food.

" Sir, you better go to the hospital to check yourself out." Tio, who is now Daniel's assistant.

" I don't have any history, it's just a regular cough." Said Daniel.

" Mister, if it's just an ordinary cough where it might come out blood. Please sir, see yourself to the doctor." Tio said, worried.

" Yes.. I'll see the doctor." Said Daniel.

" Mister, are you not suspicious of Lord Vian? I remember, since you often drink his tea, you become weak like this." Tio.

" Dare to blame him! He was my brother's son, which he probably did. Go, I want to rest." Daniel said, angry.

" Sorry, sir. Then rest, I say." Tio said, looking down.

' I will investigate the man, I'm sure his arrival has hidden intent.' Inner Tio.

Daniel took the medicine in his drawer, and then he swallowed it. Then when he was about to get up, somehow his legs became very weak, he fell down.

BRUK! BRACKET!

Hearing a loud noise from the direction of his master's room, Tio entered again, and was surprised to find Daniel unconscious.

" MASTER!" Shouted Tio, panicked.

" Call the doctor, hurry!!" Shouts again.

With great difficulty, Tio lifted Daniel up on his bed. Apparently Daniel's temple is bleeding, it looks like he's stuck on the sharp end of the table.

The doctor came and checked on Daniel. The doctor was even surprised, because Daniel looked sick. But not long ago Daniel checked his blood pressure, and looks fine.

" Why is Mr Daniel so apprehensive about this?" Ask Doctor.

" I don't know, Doc. Arriving in this week's time, his condition is getting worse." Tio.

The doctor just shook his head, the doctor thought maybe Daniel smoked because of stress, and made himself cough cough.

" I'm sorry, then." Said the doctor, and Tio nodded.

Tio came out shortly after the doctor left. Tio becomes Daniel's assistant, because Daniel does not easily trust new people. Ever since his assistant was killed by Arthur, he made Tio his assistant.

Tio enters his room, he picks up his old cell phone and contacts Sierra.

" lloo.. Miss, can we meet?" Tio.

"...."

" No, miss. Just me, I promise." Tio.

" ... ...."

" Okay, thank you, miss." Tio. And the call ends.

" After all, the lady should know the condition of the master." Tio.

_______________________

The next day, Sierra and Arthur check out the building that will be the venue for the wedding reception. The building was a luxury hotel owned by the Edward family.

" How's madam? Is everything appropriate?" Wo Say.

" It's good.. " Sierras say.

" Well, if the madam likes it then we'll carry it all on so that tomorrow it's over." WO said, extending a hand.

" Okay, thanks." Sierra said shaking WO's hand.

Sierra went from there and approached Arthur who was sitting and struggling with his laptop.

" It's over, baby? " Task Arthur, while closing his laptop.

" It's.. Oiya, I have an appointment with Uncle Tio, do you mind if I meet him here?" Ask Sierra.

" Not at all, just call him." Said Arthur.

" But you don't show up, if there's you, he's definitely not going to dare say much." Sierra Say.

" Hmmm.well, I'll wait for you not far from you." Said Arthur, after weighing.

"Okay, I'll call him." Say Sierra, while sending Tio a message.

They also went downstairs in the elevator. And when he got downstairs, Arthur waited on the sofa not far from his wife. Because the sofa there is big and high, so it does not look that there is Arthur there.

Sierra was waiting, and before long Tio actually came with a formal suit. A new department for Sierra saw Tio so neat, because Tio was just a guarding cage and gardener at Leon's residence.

" Uncle, you look cool in that suit." Sierra Say.

" Ah, really? Thanks miss. " Say Tio bumbling himself.

" What's the matter uncle?" Sierra Say.

" Miss.. Mr. is very ill." Tio said by gathering his courage.

DEG.

Sierra was surprised, but hid his surprise.

" then? He can go to uncle's own doctor, why would uncle come to me." Sierra Say.

" but.. "

" He had nothing to do with me uncle. Doesn't uncle know for himself?" Sierra's flat speech, cutting Tio's speech.

" What a miss, I don't understand her final condition. He's so different from the usual healthy Mr. Daniel." Tio.

" Uncle, doesn't age affect a person's health? Maybe because he's old so he's sick. Just take him to the doctor." Sierra Say.

Tio lowered his head, he no longer knew how to persuade Sierra to look at Daniel's condition. Tio was in a dilemma at the moment.

" Miss.. If he's gone. won't the lady be sad?" Tio.

Sierra is silent, the fact that Daniel is his real father is undeniable. As far as he goes, Daniel's name must always be embedded in his life, because Daniel is his father.

" No." Sierra Say.

" He has hurt me too long, and taken away too much of my happiness. If he dies then that's his destiny." Sierra Say.

" For God's sake, Sierra.. As evil as he is, he's your father. Aren't you suspicious of all this? He has given up on you and lives in the city of K, but upon the arrival of Mr. Bernard, he returns ambitious towards you. Uncle believes this is a conspiracy.." Tio's words are not formal.

" Please uncle Sierra, if you don't care about your father, then let uncle take care of him later. But please reveal the truth about Bernard and his son, Vian. To make your father aware, Bernard's not a good man. Sierra It's.." Tio said he gave two small plastics containing a grain of medicine and tea.

" Please investigate this, uncle is very sure it contains something. Mr. Daniel became a sick man after consuming it." Tio.

" Uncle excuse Sierra, uncle's time is only short, because your father is also currently in a wheelchair." Tio said, then left from there in a hurry.

Sierra was stunned to hear it, he also stared at the two small plastics that Tio gave him with an indecipherable look.

" You're okay, baby." Arthur touched Sierra's shoulder.

" What else is this, Arthur?" Sierra Say.

" Let me handle this.. Don't think about it too much. " Arthur rubbed Sierra's cold hands.
