The Devil JOVE's
95. The Strange Attitude
Tok tok tok tok
"Cadenza, are you done getting dressed?"
Elzavat gawked into the changing room after knocking on the door. He then showed a small smile to find the husband buttoning his clothes. "Can I come in?"
"Just go in, baby. And why do you have to ask me first. Forgot if I was your husband?" sahut Cadenza felt strange about his wife's attitude. And after being close, he immediately looked at her fixedly. "What's up, hem? Did something mess with your mind?"
Over the years living with this beautiful woman named Elzavat, making Cadenza memorized all her traits. If his wife suddenly acts like a condescension and keeps her distance, there is likely something that is disturbing his mind. And this is what Cadenza is trying to figure out right now. He was sure that his wife was thinking about something.
"May I know what happened?" ask Cadenza gently.
Before replying, Elzavat took the black-striped tie and draped it around Cadenza's neck. After that he helped tie her up while talking.
"I dreamed of our daughter. In the dream I saw Casandra who was crying sobbing with a body drenched in blood. My heart hurts, but I can't help it. Because I was not calm, I decided to contact him directly. But there is no answer" said Elzavat lirih. He then looked up while displaying such an anxious expression. "Jove ... she couldn't have hurt our daughter, right? Casandra's gonna be okay, right?"
"Darling, please don't think a no-no about our daughter. Be sure and believe that the dream you see is only a sleeping flower. Okay?" sahut Cadenza tried to respond to the story of the wife calmly.
Oh my God, please protect my daughter. Elzavat is the one who has given birth to Casandra, they are bound to a very strong inner relationship. Hopefully what he saw in the dream did not come true. Casandra must be fine in Jove's hands. I hope that.
"Although I tried to convince myself that Jove would not be able to hurt Casandra, my heart was still uneasy. Because of his bike and no matter how good Jove is in doing his responsibilities, he is still a human who has a na*su air. I'm so afraid Jove will be happy and then take advantage of what's inside our daughter. This could happen, right?"
"Yes, I think so too. But what can we do now. Only Jove is the safest place for Casandra to take shelter. Please believe this. Or if not how about after breakfast later we go to visit Casandra only. Who knows that way you can feel a little calm!"
"Why should I visit him? Can't we just meet at the office? It will be easier for us to chat there. Can you?" asked Elzavat objected to having to visit the mafia residence.
Cadenza was silent for a long time. He was less sure whether today his daughter would come to the company or not. Because Franklin told him yesterday that Casandra had a fever. Actually it is not the intention of Cadenza to keep this matter from Elzavat, he just does not want this woman to be sad if they know that their daughter is in poor health. However, back again to one fact about a child's bond with his mother. Trying to cover up, Elzavat instead gets a premonition through a dream. Hihh.
"Cadenza, may?" ask Elzavat again.
"Darling, actually ....
Tok tok tok tok
"Mr Cadenza, Mrs Elzavat. Outside is Mr. Eriko. He said he wanted to meet you. It matters!" report a waiter from behind the door.
Cadenza's forehead immediately shriveled to know that her half-brother had come to visit. After that he stared for a long time at Elzavat, astonished by the sudden visit.
"Tell Eriko we'll be out soon to see her!" elzavat's orders.
"Good, Mistress. Excuse me."
Elzavat sighed. "It's not usual for Eriko to come without telling us first. Could something have happened to Regent's health?"
"Okay, I don't know either" said Cadenza. "We're out now?"
"All right."
After tidying up the tie, Elzavat and Cadenza finally came out of the dressing room. They walked hand in hand, climbing one by one stairs while occasionally throwing smiles at each other. Very harmonious.
Meanwhile, in the living room, Eriko was seen sitting with a strange expression. His goal in coming to this house was to ascertain the truth about the rare blood that was in his nephew's body. Yesterday after Regent told me about this problem, Eriko suddenly went to sleep so unsettled. He then contacted one of his acquaintances to ask about the privilege of the blood. And do you know the answer Eriko got? Justjust wonderful. Only by selling that single drop of rare blood could he obtain an incredible amount of wealth. Just imagine if if he could sell all the rare blood belonging to his nephew, Eriko would definitely become the richest person in the world. That's why now he's coming to this house. Eriko wants to make sure that Casandra is the real money mine.
"Eriko, what's wrong with you this early in the morning has come to see you. Regent's fine, right?" ask Cadenza as soon as she gets to the living room. He then asked Elzavat to sit down first. After that he sat down next to her.
"What's that?"
"It's about Casandra!"
Cadenza's breath held for a moment. He then stroked Elzavat's back as he felt a strong r*masan on his waist. Worry, that's for sure. They both guessed that the thing Eriko wanted to ask was about Casandra's privilege. If they are, then they are finished. Years of being brothers, not even Cadenza had the intention to tell Eriko about this. He knows exactly what his war is like.
"What's wrong with my daughter, Eriko? Did he make a mistake?" elzavat asked trying to calm down. Whoever is sitting before him now, Elzavat will consider him an enemy. Of course the enemy. Because the one who mentioned his daughter's name, it certainly has its own purpose.
"No, sister-in-law. Casandra made no mistakes at all. It's just ....
Eriko's words paused. And his sharp eyes continued to notice the change in expression on the faces of these two people. However, the truth is still fifty. Because both Cadenza and his wife, they both look calm without showing a panic or tense reaction.
"What is it?" Elzavat blinked his eyes. She desperately held herself back from crying. Elzavat was scared.
"Just someone came to see Regent at the hospital and told him that Casandra had been taken hostage by Jove. Is that true?"
Eriko accidentally changed the topic of the question after accidentally seeing sweaty circles start popping up on her sister-in-law's forehead. As an observer, it is certain that this is enough to give him the answer that it is true that Casandra is the owner of rare blood. Unwilling to invite suspicion, Eriko immediately thought of another question. Then it occurred to him to talk about Jove.
Hahaha, now that wealth is in sight. I just have to think about how to run Casandra and drain her blood. After that, then everyone will know me as Eriko Lin, the richest person in the world. Hahh, I can't wait for that success. Hmmmm.
"If you may know who's been telling Regent about this, Er?" ask Cadenza to feel weird. His heart screamed suspiciously, unwilling to believe this question of his brother.
"Regent refused to give his friend's name. And because of this problem I became very uneasy. My niece is being held hostage by someone as dangerous as Jove, is it possible that I will just keep quiet? It's an insult, Cadenza. Your daughter is a respectable woman. It's not like he's treated like this!" eriko replies trying to convince Cadenza that she has no covert intentions. "How about we report this matter to the authorities. Jove is dangerous. I'm afraid he'll use Casandra as his business tool. You can't possibly not know what mafia one looks like?"
"Casandra's not in the hostages, but she's willing to stay with Jove!" refute Elzavat out loud. Her instinct as a mother says that the man in front of her is playing a show. And that made Elzavat so provoked emotions.
"What's? Casandra lives with Jove on her own?" Eriko frowned. He felt something strange behind Elzavat's words just now.
"Yes. Casandra and Jove are in love, they are in a relationship. But Eriko, I'm curious about the person who told Regent that my daughter was in custody. Know where he's from?"
Capturing the existence of a suspicious cynical signal, Eriko lightning-fast instantly normalized her expression. His brother must not know that he wants to kidnap Casandra and then sell her rare blood. It could be a long matter of business later if these two people find out.
"Sister-in-law, because now that I know the truth, I don't think this issue needs to be discussed anymore. And I hope you don't have any thoughts towards me. My arrival here was purely because I was worried about Casandra. Not more!"
"It's better that way, Eriko. Because if I find out you're planning something against my daughter, then I'll be the one to make the calculations with you!" sahut Elzavat with courage. He then turned his head as Cadenza stroked his hand, giving the code to be calm. "Sorry, Cadenza. Lately my heart has been restless. So I'm a little sensitive whenever anyone talks about Casandra. And for you, Eriko. I'm sorry if any of my words offended you. I am a mother who loves her child too much. Hope you understand!"
"It's okay, sister-in-law. I'm very aware of that. Don'worry. You have the right to do so because Casandra is your daughter!"
Elzavat biting lips. He then bailed to get into the room, leaving Eriko and Cadenza in silence.
"Yes, then I'll just go home. And for you, Cadenza. If there's anything, don't hesitate to ask me for help. We are brothers, we should have shared our joys and sorrows together. Aye, right?" eriko then stood up. "I'll go first. Goodbye bye!"
Eriko stepped out from there with a very relaxed expression. But when he got near his car, a sly smirk immediately adorned his lips. A shadow of a pile of money filled his eye sockets, along with the whispers of a demon that kept urging to immediately hunt down his own nephew.
Wait for Uncle Casandra's arrival. Uncle promised Uncle would treat you very well. Hahaahahaha.
After the death of Eriko, Cadenza did not immediately flinch from his seat. I don't know why he felt something was wrong. His brother could not have come just because of this kind of triviality. Not wanting anything to happen, Cadenza decided to contact Jove instead. He needs to inform about Eriko's arrival to the mafia.
