Wealth Punishment System
The real Aredo Maverick

.

.

The door of the room had been closed, Fano walked slowly closer to the figure who was only wearing the bathrobe.

He was a tall man with blond hair, almost similar in posture and also Fano's current hair. The man sat back to Fano, it seemed like he was having lunch while staring at the scene outside the glass wall.

The food in front of him was steak, there was also a bottle of high quality wine and also two empty wine glasses.

“Sit”

For some reason, Fano has a strange feeling, between curious, worried, happy and also confused. Fano knows he's not Gio because Gio himself has dark brown hair.

Fano sat in front of the man.

Fano can see his face.

He was a handsome young man, with a sharp nose and a firm jaw. Her eyes are blue with white skin, she looks perfect. Almost similar to Albert when he was young, only this man had whiter skin and blond hair.

Fano didn't expect to be able to recognize him right away, he couldn't possibly be wrong. Although Fano is a nobody, but Albert's soul is still his father.

No doubt, this must be Alfred.

The original Alfredo Maverick.

How he got here while Fano and Raynold's family desperately try to find him.

He had finished his meal then stared at the empty wine glass, then looked at Fano.

Those round, big blue eyes... Fano couldn't have mistaken him.

“You like wine?”

The question just made Fano aware from his daydream, then Fano nodded slowly “sittle.

“If cola?”

Fano nods again “I love cola”

The young man stood up, even though he was wearing a bathrobe, but he was still wearing pajamas. He opened the fridge there and pulled out a bottle of cola.

When he returned, he poured the cola into a wine glass, then sat down.

“Minum”

Fano who still did not understand chose to reach for one of the glasses and drink it slowly, the cola could not be poisonous or anything like that, because when taken it was still sealed tightly.

“So..is your real name Alfredo Maverick, or are you just undercover? But what are you disguising yourself as me for? I mean, I was hiding, and then suddenly there was someone similar to me with a similar name. I'll be caught if I'm here” said the young man, Alfred.

“Why are you hiding?” instead of answering, Fano asked back.

Alfred let out a heavy sigh, then sawn the wine glass containing the cola, sipping it for a while before speaking.

“I was chased a lot, my father forbade to go to Indonesia, but I who was curious secretly went to Indonesia. The man you met at the bar was one of my father's accomplices, it seems he thought you were me, so he asked you to meet here. So I don't want to be caught by my father's men, other than that there are others who are after me. That's why I was asked to hide in Bangkok, I can't speak Thai, so I gave up and chose Indonesia, because I can speak a little Indonesian”

Fano massaged his temple during Alfred's rant until he interrupted “Wait! Wait a minute.”

Alfred fell silent and looked at Fano, waiting for Fano's next speech.

Fano looked at Alfred in disbelief, how could he tell all that to a stranger he had just met? Is it because there are a lot of big men outside the room so he is not afraid?

“Begini..your father was.Hasn't he died?”

Alfred looked surprised to hear that “how did you know – I mean, I just found out yesterday. Are you not my dopelgangger? Like cloning or distant twin?”

Fano shook her head “No. This hair is fake, my eye color is also fake. We don't look alike, I used your name to find you”

Alfred was again surprised, this time more surprised than before “So.. You want to hurt me?”

Fano again shook his head “No.. not like that, me. i..”

“Are you the man who's looking for me? But why did you buy my father's company stock?”

“Stop”

“Iya?”

“Stop calling him dad, he's not your dad!”

“Why are you angry?”

Fano went back to silence, hearing Alfred call the jerk father made Fano ignited with emotion. Damn this juvenile hormone, it's very explosive.

“Until I was seventeen I was locked up in a big house, not going anywhere. He said he was my father, he also said my mother had died. I get a lot of teachers every day. There were only two butlers and two maids who were following me, I was lucky they were kind and willing to play with me. But when I was seventeen years old, five years ago, I began to be taught to do business, also introduced to the group. They're all very nice people to me.

But three years later an old man came to see me, he said my father lied to me, he was not my real father, then one of my accomplices came and killed the man before my eyes. I was so scared, when I almost called the police, my father's accomplices said it should not be done, because it turns out they included my father and I was a mobster, an enemy of the police. I was getting scared to hear it. Then I locked myself back in. A year later some members said they were on my side and would help me regain control of my father's estate and seize power.

That's so ridiculous. Many of them said crazy things like my father betraying my father and putting my father to death, they also said my mother died because of my father. My father's wealth and power were taken over. I was very frustrated, but then my father suddenly came to tell me to go to hide in other countries besides Indonesia, America, Australia, Japan, China and Korea. Especially Indonesia, that's why I came here. And as it turns out, I found you!”

Fano was unable to speak anymore hearing all that.

Alfred was locked up in the mansion all his life, which Fano thought was Albert's mansion. He only interacts with servants, does not relate to peers, is not good at interacting. He must have been very surprised to learn that Gio is a mobster and the people around him are also mafia.

Fano could imagine Alfred being extremely depressed and perhaps also traumatized to see an old man being killed in front of him.

It's actually not strange that Alfred became such a naive man.

Fano felt very guilty.

It looks like Gio used Alfred to gain the trust of Albert's mafia members, because by taking care of Alfred, then he could also freely take Albert's property and gain the trust of other mafia members.

So devious.

“Sorry to tell you all this, you must be surprised too right? I can be here with the help of some rebellious members, the number is almost half now, but the Simon you met is not on my side. What if you're on my side too? That way I will let you outwit my father's men by using my name, how?”

Fano breathed a heavy sigh.

He was still in shock to see Albert's son grow up to be this innocent and naive man. But Fano knew he couldn't let Alfred be alone in this world, he had to meet family

Raynold, they're gonna take care of Alfred. After all, Raynold's family was Alfred's only relative.

“What's your goal after this Alfred?” ask Fano.

“I? Oh yeah, what's your name? Real name”

“Fano, just call Fano”

Alfred nodded “A good name, if you agree to be on my side, I will tell you”

“Alright, I agree, I will help you, so now tell me”

Alfred smiled satisfied “My goal is to capture my father and put him in prison, after that I can live freely, eum. maybe I will share my father's property with his real son, he said in this country, he said, if not in London”

“I agree with arresting your father, but... What if you meet your relatives next? My purpose in finding you was to bring you to your family”

Alfred surprised “I... still have family?”

“Grandfather, uncle, aunt, cousin.you have it”.

“You didn't lie?”

Fano smiled then nodded slowly “I also know all the secrets and genealogy of your family, I know everything”

“Then, can you tell me?”

Fano nods “Sure”
