Turning My Brother's Destiny into My Husband
CHAPTER 24 ~ Missing ~

Ezra takes Radian to lunch and drinks at night. A very curious radian asked the cause of the man being annoyed at his parents. The man also told about a girl he had to stay away from until his parents decided to send him to school abroad. Radian remembered Mr. Adam told him once.

"Then why don't you look for him now? If you were separated because you are still immature and still under the power of parents. When you're as independent as you are today, shouldn't you be able to do what you want?" ask Radian.

Ezra thought for a moment, the desire to find the girl he likes had appeared when the first sent to New York. Secretly the man wants to return to the homeland, but because of the escort of Mr. Adam makes Ezra's efforts unsuccessful and desperate.

Until finally accustomed to living his life alone in the land of people. Accompanied only by a few bodyguards, Ezra drowns in his solitude. Feeling a grudge against his parents, Ezra is determined not to return to his homeland.

"My father left me no chance to be with him. I felt a little more that I could reach his heart. That's what pisses me off. A little more .. Just a little more I will declare love to her. I think I managed to melt his heart. She's a hard girl to approach because of her difficult life. I begged her parents to ask for a little time so I could tie her heart. After that if I have to go then I will go. But my parents didn't care, the more I begged the more they wanted me to leave. I finally realized my parents' wishes, didn't I? I'm leaving like they want?" obviously Ezra.

"I think Mr. Adam felt sorry for his past attitude. I met Mr. Adam when he was walking while daydreaming until he could not avoid a child who was cycling. I'm afraid, sir, Mr. regret. Adam could have had a bad impact on him. Sorry Mr. Ezra, we don't know what's going to happen. I don't mean to scare you but I'm afraid that one day Mr. Ezra will regret it" Radian explained.

Ezra pensively heard Radian's words, the man's words peppered in the recesses of his heart. Radian did not mean to frighten but when he thought of the bad, the only son of Adam's family began to feel fear.

"Master is lucky to have a father who cares about Mister. Some people can't get that kind of attention. Because it is no longer on the side, if in such circumstances let alone the attention we long for, the anger is sometimes we expect to overcome the longing. I have three fathers …"

"Three fathers?" ezra asked directly and laughed in disbelief.

"My mother married three times, one separated without clarity, one parted well and the last died. Each of them is something I miss, as I said earlier, let alone the affection, the anger of them I miss," Radian explained.

"Do they have different characters?" ask Ezra curiously.

"Of course, sir, some are grumpy, some like to advise, some are gentle and affectionate" replied Radian.

"You miss the last one the most?" ask Ezra.

"Basically miss all the Master, his name is also old man, sometimes in certain situations I am reminded of this one. In another moment, remember another one, another one, I miss another one. All because they are no longer on our side. If it has been like that it feels sorry why not be as satisfied as before with them. Maximizing the moment together with them," explained Radian with teary eyes.

Ezra was stunned to hear the story of Radian. After a late day, the man decided to return home from the Night Club.

"Where are you staying?" ask Ezra.

"I was given the facilities of fare, meals and hotel to stay by Mr. Adam," Radian explained.

"Then it's time for a break. Tomorrow we meet again at the hotel" said Ezra.

"Okay sir" said Radian.

Radian follows Ezra out of the Night Club. Arriving on the terrace of the building they wait for valet parking to bring Ezra's car. A guest protested over the long wait, Valet Parking was maki-maki by guests for making it a long wait. The bowed radian recalled the incident as he and Leana waited for Valet Parking who was arguing with a guest.

Radian wiped away the tears in his eyes.

Leana would definitely not stay silent, she would definitely curse the guest who made the commotion, Leana ... Leana dear .. I miss you so much, inner Radian.

"Why are you Radian?" ask Ezra.

"It's okay, sir, just thinking about the wife" replied Radian.

"Do you have a wife? Wow you are full of surprises" said Ezra with a laugh.

"I've been 29 years Sir, it's only natural to have a wife" Radian replied with a shy smile.

"My age is two years younger than you. Then don't call me sir, just call me my name. But can I still call you Radian? I don't like the frills of calls, it just makes the distance between us, that's if you don't mind" Ezra explained.

"It doesn't matter Mr. eh .. Ezra, it doesn't matter to call my name, I feel younger" Radian explained. Ezra laughs.

"Ok, thank you Radian, you have made my day so impressive" explained Ezra.

Radian nodded, smiling. Ezra also took the initiative to drive Radian home to the hotel because of the feeling of Ezra who felt closer to Radian.

"Sorry Miss Leana, it's been a long wait" Adam said.

"Oh it's okay, sir, I've been among the lucky ones to meet with Mister" said Leana.

"You're overreacting, your company is so big but still hoping for my little company?" ask Adam.

"Because of the company of Mr. Adam who is an expert in his field. I take my hat off for that" Leana explained.

The old man laughed. They met to enter into a contract of cooperation. Mr. Adam was not easy to find. The father who no longer asked to rule in the business world was just sorting out the people he wanted to meet. If he thinks the person he wants to meet has a trait he does not like then Mr. Adam will refuse without further ado.

But if according to his observations someone has a good nature then Mr. Adam is willing to take the time to meet because Leana feels lucky to be met by a father who no longer cares about pursuing success in the business world. For him, connecting with good people is more important than just looking for profit in the business world. They also managed to enter into a cooperation contract.

"I hope this cooperation goes very smoothly" said Adam while shaking Leana's hand.

"Thank you, Mr. Adam," said Leana with her trademark smile.

"I thank you" Adam smiled back at Leana.

"Then you're both sir" Leana replied again. Mr. Adam laughing.

"Oh yeah, that was .. I made you wait, isn't it time for lunch now? How about I buy you lunch?" ask Adam.

"Oh don't bother Sir, I'm not hungry" replied Leana.

But just as Leana subtly refused the offer of lunch, the sound of her stomach rumbling actually sounded. Leana laughs shyly while touching her stomach, making Mr. Adam kontan laughing.

"Then eat alone with an old man?" ask Adam.

"Well, it's not so, sir, I feel bad about being treated. I'm willing to have lunch with you, but let me buy you?" ask Leana.

Mr. Adam laughed, then nodded. Mr. Adam took Leana to eat in their office cafeteria. In addition to the affordable price, it also tastes very delicious.

"What's the objection to eating instead at a fancy restaurant?" adam asked as Leana's vision circled the company's office cafeteria.

"Oh no problem, sir, my husband and I used to love eating street food" Leana explained, then suddenly bowed.

Easily tell the memory to Mr. Adam had forgotten the harsh reality they were living in now. Leana seems to forget that her relationship with her husband is not like it used to be.

"Have you been married?" ask Adam.

"Already sir, and also have a child," continued Leana.

"If your life is complete, take care of it all because when you are free, your heart will feel empty" explained Adam.

Leana bowed, the woman perfectly understood that feeling. Not only does it feel empty but it feels like it is losing everything. But Leana did not show it to the surface, all just stored in her heart. Leana remained like someone cheerful from the outside.

"I said like that not to patronize but to just share experiences. I've lost most of my time with my son because of an ego. Right now someone is trying to persuade him to come back. If successful, my son will continue to lead the company" Adam said.

"Oh ... You're going to hand over the position of president director to your son?" ask Leana.

"Yes, I'll rest, enjoy my old age. For the next time you will be in touch with my son, Ezra," explained Adam.

"Ezra?" leana said unintentionally.

The woman's heart rippled a little to hear a name that was quite familiar in her ears. But Leana thinks it is just a coincidence because she feels maybe just her name is similar to the name of someone she used to know.
