Chapter 202
202 Karma
Just as Suri and Asher left the room, Areez emerged from the front of the elevator alone. The person that Asher was looking for to be held accountable had actually come himself without having to bother looking for him.
Suri, who was nervous because of Asher’s words, smiled widely when she saw the criminal who was wanted by all her family. With a smile that didn’t leave her face, Suri stopped her steps when she was close to Areez who was also walking towards her.
“Want to meet my Daddy?” Suri asked curiously, her focus immediately on the briefcase Areez was carrying.
Arees smiled. “Yes, I’d like to pass some files to Mr. Clarke.”
“But Daddy is still in a meeting with the tax man at this time,” said Suri quietly.
“Meeting with the tax man?” simultaneously Areez and Asher repeated Suri’s words.
“Yeah, there are three tax people coming and so far they haven’t...”
“Mr. Clarke.” Areez greeted Jack who had just come out of his office with the three tax men that Suri had previously mentioned.
Suri, who had her back to her father, immediately turned around and greeted her father and the three guests as Areez had just done.
.....
Knowing that Areez came because he wanted to meet him, Jack then asked Nicholas to take the three tax men who had said goodbye to him since they were still in his office. After the three guests left with Nicholas who went straight to the elevator that Areez had just left, Jack then stepped closer to Areez who was standing next to Suri and Asher.
“Sorry to keep you waiting, Mr. Floyen,” Jack said quietly as he extended his hand towards Areez.
Immediately Areez grabbed Jack’s hand and gripped it tightly. “No sir, I just arrived a few minutes ago.”
Jack laughed. “You’re always so modest, well then come on into my room.”
Areez nodded slowly, then without looking at Suri again Areez followed Jack to his study where Erick was still standing guard at the door. Suri stomped her feet when she saw the door to her father’s room was closed.
“Irritating!”
Asher smiled. “Master Floyen won’t be in for long, Suri.”
“Ah, it won’t take long? If they met like that they would definitely be talking for hours, like they always have.”
“Well, let’s just go to the canteen then, I’m sure you’ll like the new menu in our canteen,” Asher said quietly, trying to calm Suri’s anger.
“What’s on the menu?” Suri asked quickly without taking her eyes off her father’s closed office.
Asher brought his face closer to Suri’s and whispered. “Sushi made by a real chef from Japan.”
Suri almost screamed loudly when she heard Asher’s words, as someone who really likes one of the Japanese foods, Suri looks so happy. All her anger vanished in an instant replaced with a feeling of happiness.
“So how?”
Instead of answering Asher’s teasing words, Suri immediately grabbed her adoptive brother’s arm and pulled him into a special elevator that couldn’t be used by just anyone to the canteen on the eighth floor. Jack, who didn’t want to create a distance between himself and his employees, didn’t make a special canteen, that’s why if Suri wanted to eat she had to go down to the canteen to join the other staff. However, because it was not lunch time yet, the canteen was still very quiet.
The chef from Japan, who already knew that the daughter of the owner of the company really likes sushi, immediately prepared the best sushi, using the chef’s fresh choice of meat to make the best sushi for Suri. Suri’s eyes opened wide when she enjoyed sushi with fresh salmon slices that were so delicious.
“How?” asked Asher, quietly teasing Suri.
Suri nodded excitedly. “It’s delicious... it’s the most delicious sushi I’ve eaten after eating sushi seven months ago with Christian, Asher.”
“Thank goodness if you like it Uncle Jack will be happy to hear that,” Asher said again.
“The best daddy!!” Suri’s screams loudly broke the silence in the cafeteria which was still empty of the staff who had not yet arrived.
Asher chuckled hearing Suri’s words, because he didn’t want the sushi to be cold, Asher then went back to eating the sushi in front of him voraciously following what Suri had done earlier. Suri, who really likes sushi, didn’t waste her favorite delicious food at all.
From his study Jack smiled a little when he saw what Suri and Asher were doing in the cafeteria, having access to monitor important places let Jack know what his favorite daughter was doing. He looks happy because his decision to call the chef from Japan managed to make Suri so happy, having lost a girl who was so beautiful decades ago made Jack very selfish now. For the sake of Suri’s happiness and Suri’s mental healing, he is willing to do anything, including directly accusing Elena of being the one to blame for Suri’s kidnapping three years ago. Because Suri’s condition has improved, Jack then forgets his original intention to find out other people who are considered to be working with Elena in the incident three years ago. Jack has no interest in looking for other criminals after he gets one villain called Suri many times.
Clarke Enterprise, Luxembourg.
After the incident two weeks ago, Romaria was communicating more with Kainer. Even though Kainer didn’t get orders from Christian but Kainer tried to provide whatever Elena wanted, Kainer couldn’t bear to hear Romaria’s report explaining Elena’s condition.
Although at this time Christian has decided to soften his heart to Elena, but he still doesn’t want to visit the woman who is pregnant with his child. Christian reasons that he is managing his heart, even though he has accepted the fact that he is currently going to have children, but on the other hand Christian still regrets why Elena has to be the mother of his child.
Just like the last few weeks, at lunchtime, Kainer always found time to reply to Romaria’s messages.
“I will send people to the villa to buy some of the food you mentioned earlier, Romaria. After that person arrives I hope you will immediately carry out the procedure I taught you yesterday,” Kainer said quietly in a half-whisper to Romaria, even though he was in a quiet place, but Kainer chose to speak in a less loud voice.
“Okay, I’ll take your word for it, Kainer. Miss Elena must be happy to see all the food she wants coming this afternoon.”
Kainer immediately closed his eyes, although Romaria’s tone was normal but those words sounded so sad to Kainer’s ears. During the two weeks of constant communication with Romaria who told about Elena’s condition, Kainer had a great sense of guilt towards Elena.
“Thank you, Romaria. I’m glad to hear that,” Kainer said quietly. “Then I...”
“Wait...” Romaria screamed loudly to hold back Kainer who wanted to end their conversation. “Have you done what I said yesterday, Kainer?”
Kainer clenched her fists. “Romaria...”
“Come on Kainer, you’re the only one who can help Miss Elena,” said Romaria hoarsely. “Miss Elena is innocent, Kainer. Miss Elena has even started delirious in her sleep because of the accusation.”
“Delirious, delirious what?” asked Kainer in surprise.
Romaria swallowed her saliva. “Miss Elena said that she dared to swear on her own life, Kainer. Miss Elena dared not live long if she was involved in that incident...”
Hearing those words Kainer immediately closed his eyes, his chest tightened again.
“And she always has tears in her eyes when she has those nightmares, Kainer,” added Romaria. “Come on Kainer, you’re the only hope that can save Miss Elena from her suffering. Please protect the young master and the Clarke family from God’s wrath, Kainer.”
“God’s wrath...”
“Hurting an innocent orphan will bring so much karma, Kainer. Especially now that the child is pregnant. Even though I’m not a saint, I know about it. And one more thing you need. You know, Kainer, all this time Miss Elena has always given the best prayers for the young master and his family. Please find out the truth.. a woman who dared to give her life to be taken by God sooner cannot lie, Kainer.”
Kainer’s chest hurt so much, even though Elena was someone else but Kainer felt pain too when Romaria talked about what Elena was going through right now.
“Kainer...”
“Ok, Romaria. I’ll try to find out again, I’ll try to find out what really happened to Miss Suri in that hotel...just pray that I get the truth so that Elena and her baby don’t have to suffer like this,” he said. Hoarse cloth.
