The Destiny
Truth and Lies

"There was someone who sent me an anonymous email. When I opened it, it contained a video for an older person featuring Alex and Rachel, Ana's half-sister." Ray.

Hearing that, Yohan widened her eyes in surprise.

The video? Did someone film them both? That means someone else has known about it all along. But, on what basis did he record it? What's that guy thinking? Why did he leak that video now? And again, why did he leak it to Mr. Ray rather than to the media, if indeed he wanted to destroy the good name of the company. What exactly is the hidden motive of that person?

"Have you thought about who sent it, sir?" Ask Yohan.

Ray sighed, then shook his head.

"The guy used random letters and numbers to create his email id, he looks like he's been preparing for this a long time." Said Ray.

"We can try to trace his IP address sir."

"You're right, bring my laptop and have the ITE team track down his IP address, I hope he doesn't disguise his IP address and make us even more confused about his purpose."

"Okay sir, I'll take him to headquarters."

"Do it now." Said Ray.

"Yes sir. But, what are you going to do with director Alex?"

Ray was silent for a moment, again remembered by the content of the video, where Alex is a male actor in the video.

"You sound so concerned about Alex."

"Ah that's me just—"

"I'll ask him a few things." Sela Ray's.

The man again sighed, though,

"I wish he'd be honest before I act." Sluggishly.

At the same time, Alex entered the room.

He looked at the two older men with the usual smile.

"Ah you're here also assistant Yohan, what a coincidence. Here, she left her bag in my car yesterday." Alex said, he handed over Miya's bag to Yohan.

Without replying to Alex, Yohan immediately took the bag that Alex offered to her, without protesting or saying anything.

Different sister Ray's mother frowned in wonder,

"That's it?" Ask Alex.

"Thank you."

"Waaah it's totally unexpected for me, I thought you'd be prejudiced against me and ask me to fight." Alex told Yohan.

"There's something else worth fussing about with you, but I'm not going to fuss about it." Whisper Yohan with her sharp tone. At first glance he said that while glancing at Ray who was not far from him and Alex.

"Yohan, take that laptop and go." Ray's orders, mediate a feud between Alex and Yohan.

Yohan nodded, she walked up to pick up the laptop that was still lying helplessly on the floor, then passed towards the exit of the room.

"Inwardly you bury a large carcass in the ground, and in the end the maggots will find it." Whisper Yohan as she crosses paths with Alex who is still standing at the door.

"What do you mean?!" Reply Alex.

"Let go of your hand, I have to take care of what you've done." Whisper Yohan again.

Alex walked closer to Ray's desk, his brother was still sitting there staring at him in silence. If it wasn't an Alex, then such a stared person would feel awkward and confused.

"Sister, did you call me for personal or corporate reasons? At least I should know, so that I don't call you wrong, Chairman Ray." Joke Alex.

Ray was still silent with his expressionless gaze.

"Nalika Lotusa." Ray.

It was the name of Rachel's child, hearing the name being called by her brother, Alex seemed frozen.

"Rachel." Ray said again, increasingly making Alex still frozen like exposed to ice magic.

"What do you feel when you hear those two names?" Ask Ray.

Alex was still silent, he did not understand, why his brother suddenly discussed the names that made him feel chaotic if he thought about it.

"Nothing." Alex is lying.

"Really?"

"Yes." Yeah." Alex replied with a trembling tone. Ray smiled in anguish at his sister's answer.

"But why did you ask me that?" Ask Alex.

Ray exhaled for a moment, before then slowly throwing his phone on the table, towards Alex who was standing opposite to him.

"The role of the man in the video, is that you?" Ray asked, deliberately emphasizing the male lead as a satire because Alex became the main figure in the video recording from the hidden camera.

Alex is seen widening his eyes, then his hand moves quickly to pick up Ray's phone, he opens a video file that Ray has copied to his phone.

"This.I can explain. Brother this is all—"

"You can explain later. For now, I need your honesty." Said Ray.

"Is he the result of the seed you sowed?" Ask Ray.

Right now, what Ray knows, is that Rachel's having a relationship like that with a lot of guys. Ray doesn't yet know the truth if Rachel is just having a relationship like that, with only one man always changing his identity so Rachel doesn't recognize the man.

Alex seemed to bow his head, he thought hard, honest or lying, it all determines the path of life that will be taken forward.

"She— he is— yes, he's my biological son." Alex replied, in the end he chose to be honest for some reason.

"That's how soon you confessed? You don't intend to give an excuse or say no?"

Alex smiled smirkily,

"If I lied, it would make you distrust my words later on. And also, if I lie, in the end the truth will be revealed. Now I understand what Yohan's assistant said, no matter how deep I dig a hole to bury a carcass this big, eventually the maggots will find it, and make the carcass rot even more."

"I don't know what's going on between you and Rachel, but Rachel says she doesn't know Nana's biological father because she's not the one guy she's sleeping with. But, on this side, you said confidently that Nana was your son." Said Ray.

"He doesn't know that I'm the real father of his son, it's because I'm a coward." Alex said with a face down.

"Forget your explanation, because you're being honest, I'll try to believe in all your reasons behind this problem you've done. Now, you must atone for your sins, take responsibility for Rachel and your son."

"I can't."

"You— why not?"
