The Only Heir
78. Vincent's Death
"It's nothing young master, we would be very grateful once, if you want to develop the area." Tiger replied hesitantly, like there was something he had hidden from Dion
"There are indeed some very good prospects to develop, to become a large-scale tourist destination." Welcome again
"The local government has always said that it wants to bring in investors who want to develop the area, but until now, there has not been a single investor who wants to invest money there." Tiger said at length
"Then it's very good. I'll send my people later, to observe whatever needs to be developed there." Dion was happy
"Then for you Rudolf, I hope you can help your father, to develop the area." Welcome again
"I'm sorry young master if I'm presumptuous, I'm not unwilling to help my father develop the area, but..."
"But what?" Dion was impatient
"I'm more interested in becoming a subordinate of master here." Rudolf was afraid
"You mean, being one of my bodyguards, right?" Ask Dion firmly
"True young master, even if the young master permits, and entrusts that to me." Rudolf replied
"It depends on your strong will, and you need to know, you won't be taken for granted, before being tested by my people, to find out, do you really have a pretty good ability to be a bodyguard." Dion explained to Rudolf
"Thank you young master, I will try my hardest, in order to pass the test." Replied Rudolf steadily
"Good then." Dion was pleased
"What do you think uncle, do you not mind?" Ask Dion casually
"I left all those decisions to Rudolf, and of course with the young master's approval as well." Tiger replied happily while smiling
"Well then, a week after this, you'll be tested." Said Dion quite clearly, then turned his attention to Maya with a face full of question marks, as if to know, how the wishes of the Maya
"Thank you young master!" Rudolf was really pleased
Maya who was noticed as such became understandably aware, and understood what Dion's view meant, then she said." I will accompany my father, to develop the area sir." Mayan's steady but shy
"Good then, I'm glad to hear it said Dion with a sweet smile towards Maya
The deg! maya's heart sounds arrived. For some reason, upon seeing Dion's very sweet smile, his heart became more and more flowery, and he did not know, why such a thing could happen to him
"Good afternoon young master! sorry if my arrival interfered." Said someone who arrived just came and immediately approached them
"What's the Ivo?" Ask Dion astonishment
Ivory is asked, instead of answering Dion's question, but instead turns his attention to Maya, and continues to watch her from top to bottom
In his heart he said." Come again my arch-rival, to get young master Dion." Her inner heart while looking at Maya with a sharp gaze and dislike, but Maya was still calm
Realizing Ivory's unusual sight, Dion hurriedly mediated the awkward atmosphere, then said." Introduce, this is Tiger's uncle, our future partner, and this is Rudolf and Maya's son." Dion was not happy
"Oh yes introduce! I'm Ivory Sanders, chief secretary of the Birawa Group, and assistant to young master Dion." Said Ivory introduced himself and impressed proud of his position
"I'm Tiger, the new young master's subordinate, and this is my son's son." Tiger replied modestly, as he replied to Ivory's introduction
"Uncle is not my subordinate, but my partner." Dion's words arrived, chiming in on their conversation
"Although later we are partners, but anyway, I remain subordinate to the young master." Tiger replied, staying strong
"Just as for uncle!" Said Dion
"Oh yes Ivo!. What's the most important need, so you're in a hurry to come here?" Ask Dion firmly
"Sorry young master, if I forget. Do you still remember Vincent, the former cousin-in-law of the master?" Ivory asked, surprising Tiger and his two children
All this time they thought, that Dion was still not married, but it turns out their estimates are wrong, even though it is not tied anymore
"Yes, I remember. What's with Vincent, is he still as disabled as he used to be?" Dion was impressed
"No longer sir, the wound he had sustained was healed." Answer Ivory
"What's wrong with her?" Ask Dion again
"Vincent was killed last night, sir, by being gang-raped by some delinquents in town B."
"Dead?. Why is that so ?" Dion asked a little curiously
"What does this have to do with me?" Dion asked coldly
"Some time before he was killed, his grandmother, uncle, aunt and cousin, and Brian came to him."
"They were walking towards an empty house not far from the scene, but they did not expect, in that place, they found Vincent lying helpless on the ground
"Of course they panicked and asked how Vincent lay helpless like that."
"By brick, he recounted all the events that had befallen him, from the beginning to the end to the present, where he was ganged up by some delinquent in that place."
"Keep!"
"Before he breathed his last, his grandmother also told him everything they knew about the young master. After hearing that, Vincent felt very sorry, for all this time having insulted master."
"At that very moment, some of the authorities came to see him, and then they asked, who has done such a heinous thing to Vincent."
"Vincent explained in a brick who the man who had persecuted him was, but before long, he called out the name of the young master, and his breathing stopped at that moment."
"The authorities were astonished and asked, about the identity of the young master, why before Vincent breathed his last breath, he mentioned the name of young master Dion."
"What was the purpose of saying my name at that time?" Ask Dion to be angry
"I don't know either, sir." Ivory replied in confusion
"Sorry sir until I forget, outside there are some investigating officers who want to meet with the master. Did you allow them to enter?" Tanya Ivory hesitated
"Investigator?. What do they want to see me for?" Dion answered with astonishment
"I also don't know the master, maybe just ask, and confirm to the master, about Vincent's remark" Ivory replied surmising
"Then tell them to come in!" Dion said firmly
"Okay young master!" Answer Ivory briefly, then walk away from the living room
Shortly after, 4 plainclothes investigators came to meet Dion, who was sitting quietly on his luxurious sofa
But as soon as the officer met Dion, their bodies shivered in fear, with their bricks stammered." It..tu.young master!" They said in unison while slightly bowing their bodies towards Dion
"Oh it turns out you, if you may know, what need are you meeting me for?" Dion asked coldly
"It's nothing what young master." One of them hesitated
"Just say don't hesitate!" Dion was full of authority
"It's not like you think, we really didn't think, that the person that Vincent was referring to and mentioning before he died was the young master."
"What is my connection to Vincent's death?"
"Before he died, he had mentioned the name of the young master." One of the officers said he was afraid
"Then?"
"We're just making sure young master, who was the one who called before he died."
"So the point is, the four of you, accusing me of having something to do with Vincent's death?" Ask Dion wrathfully
"We don't dare young master." Answer them in unison
"Then why did you come here?, didn't you want to interrogate me?" Dion was still angry
"It's not so young master, we came just to report, that according to the young master's grandmother-in-law, the master is Vincent's former cousin-in-law"
"Yes you're right!. They used to be my family, but before me and my daughter divorced. But now, there's no connection between me and them." Dion said coldly, crossing his right leg over his left leg
"Then we apologize sir, and we retreat." They hurriedly wanted to leave, fearing Dion's anger
"Please! Dion answered coldly
"Thank you young master!" Say them in unison, then rush away from the living room, while settling in the heart." Good thing young master is not angry, if he is angry, do not us, maybe our supreme leader will be hit by a big problem, if it makes it difficult for the young master. It's really terrible." Their minds in the heart
"All right!. Since there's nothing else we're going to talk about, then welcome Tiger's uncle, and you Rudolf and Maya to rest here."
"Thank you young master, we chose to just go home to the hotel we were staying at." Answer them in unison
