Marcel didn’t answer immediately, his mind so full that it was difficult for him to decide immediately.

“What else would you like to consider, Sir?” said Fandi again.

“Actually, I have nothing to consider,” said Marcel.

“Then?” asked Fandi, not understanding. “About the cooperation with Mr Aldi, didn’t you agree to it?”

Marcel turned to look at Fandi.

“I can’t just agree to Mr Aldi’s visit to my lab,” said Marcel. “I also don’t want people to find out about this collaboration too soon, especially my wife’s family.”

Fandi nodded his head, while Marcel chose not to go too far.

“I don’t know what you’re planning to do with your wife’s family, but you should immediately respond to Mr Aldi’s request to come visit your lab.”

“Please tell Mr Aldi to be patient for a while,” Marcel said calmly. “I’m not sure when, but it’s in my best interest to protect the lab from the curiosity of my wife’s family.”

Fandi smiled briefly when he heard Marcel’s explanation.

“I understand,” he agreed. “I’m jus

    A few hours after that, Marcel came back to his father-in-law's core house. Predictably, Herman was furious with the decision Marcel had made."You intend to destroy our agreement, huh?" Herman asked angrily."Our agreement is already broken, that's why I can no longer bear to stay with Shirley." Marcel commented calmly."So why did you leave this house, why?" Herman asked."Shirley is cheating on me," Marcel replied briefly.Herman frowned in disbelief."Come back now, this agreement can still be fixed." He said firmly. "Don't complicate your life anymore.""I'm just here to tell you that I'm going to find the funds to pay the debt," Marcel said simply. "So you don't have to force me and Shirley's marriage anymore."Herman exhaled loudly."You think it's that easy?" he snapped. "Never mind, you'd better go to Shirley and apologize now."Marcel shook his head firmly."I'll prove it to Dad," he said flatly, after which he excused himself to leave Herman's core house.Once in the lab, M

    Ronnie’s face turned bright red when Marcel reminded her of the challenge.“You doubt this company’s ability?” asked Ciko angrily. “Who do you think you are!”As he said that, Ciko observed Marcel and realised that his brother-in-law’s appearance had changed considerably.Marcel, who used to wear a collared shirt typical of the uniform of the shop where he worked, was now wearing a formal suit like himself, with a silver watch around his wrist.Ciko, who likes to collect watches, clearly knew that the watch Marcel was wearing wasn’t cheap.“You’ve been promoted,” Ciko commented sarcastically. “Director of the shop?”Ronnie snorted with suppressed laughter.“I see,” Marcel said calmly. “So what do you say, are you brave enough?”“I’m not willing to bow down at your feet, unclean.” Ciko scoffed, and Ronnie was astonished that Marcel could still take the insult in stride.“Well, you have a fear of your parents’ company failing, don’t you?” Marcel said flatly, but it struck a chord with C

    “You have to hide!” Venya exclaimed under her breath as she stood up.“Why would I hide?” asked Marcel in surprise. “The door is locked by the system.”Venya didn’t answer immediately, but her eyes were alert and worried.“What’s wrong, Venya?” asked Marcel curiously.“I can’t explain right now, Marcel ...” Venya replied apologetically. “Just hide first ....”Marcel was silent and no longer pressed Venya, despite wanting to know what was going on.The focus of the two of them was now completely distracted by the conversation heard outside.“Open the door!”“Call Marcel!”“Why, we should have the right to enter here!”“Whoever opens the door!”Marcel and Venya looked at each other.“How about this?”“Don’t open the door.”“Then what are you going to do?”“I don’t know, they won’t back down.” Venya tried to calm down. “Or I should meet them ....”“What for?”A moment later, Marcel heard the sound of a hard object being slammed.“Do we need to get out now?” whispered Marcel, the lab abou

    Upon arriving at the lab, Venya successfully piqued Marcel’s curiosity by looking at Venya’s muddy face.“What’s wrong, Venya?”Venya immediately explained the chronology of events that she had experienced when facing Delvino’s family, who insisted on entering the lab. Marcel shook his head in response to the behavior of his wife’s family.“How arrogant of them,” Marcel commented.“I’m fine ...” Venya said quietly.“If you get verbally or physically abused, tell me.” Marcel gave Venya a stern look. “That’s you looking shocked, do we need to teach them a lesson?”Venya didn’t answer immediately. She suddenly felt her head dizzy and her body weak, so she just obeyed when Marcel asked her to lie down on the bed, while Meru sat pensively as usual.“You must be exhausted, you also regularly consume the formula you made yourself, right?” asked Marcel.“No, I don’t have time ....”“... at least take the time to keep yourself fit, I know you’re tired of working all this time, Venya.”Venya cl

    “I can’t promise, sorry.”Marcel cut off their conversation without giving Shirley a chance to speak further.“Argh!”At her place on holiday with friends, Shirley threw her mobile phone onto the bed in annoyance. She let out a long sigh, then called her mum instead.“Mum, I don’t want to go through with this marriage!” Shirley sat on one of the chairs with a frown on her face. “I’m not in love with Marcel at all!”Reina sighed and replied.“We’ll lose a lot if we let Marcel go,” Reina said logically. “We won’t be able to squeeze his energy anymore, and we’ll have less income. Think about it, darling.”Shirley didn’t answer immediately, as she poured some tea into her own cup and continued.“I’m not sure if Marcel got the money for free,” Shirley said knowingly. “He could have borrowed it from a friend or even a loan shark ....”“Don’t be silly,” Reina scolded fiercely. “How can a loan shark lend a hundred million using a check?”Shirley shrugged indifferently, she wouldn’t just belie

    Marcel was then asked to show his identity card by several people."Marcelino? Are you from here?""I am," Marcel nodded."Come with us now," said one of the men who had thrown Marcel into the room.Marcel calmly let himself be led to a two-story house not too far from the office.Aldi was already there waiting for him with a happy look on his face. Without much preamble, one of them immediately engaged Marcel in conversation."Can I help you, Mr Marcelino? Just say the word."Marcel looked up from his seated position, flanked by two of Aldi's burly security guards."I think I'd like to move the lab in stages," Marcel said flatly, his eyes looking straight at the mature man in the vest who sat facing him with an air of charisma. "I don't think the Delvino family home is safe anymore."The tall man with wise eyes looked at Marcel with narrowed eyes until they were just a line."I understand how you feel," Aldi said calmly as he stood up and faced straight at Marcel, who was still sitti

    As dinner progressed, Herman occasionally asked Marcel questions.“Where do you work now, Marcel?”“Still at the small shop, Dad.” Marcel replied simply. “If it’s just this house, I won’t make any money.”Across the table, Ronnie shared a look with Shirley. It was the first time Marcel had been allowed to eat at the same table with their family.“Oh yeah?” responded Herman incredulously. “Didn’t you decide to resume the lab? I thought you were busy there, but maybe you forgot your obligation to help with the housekeeping work here ....”Herman stopped his speech when Shirley looked at him with a sulking gaze.“Marcel still wants a divorce.” Shirley told him.Marcel only smiled briefly. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw how Shirley sneered at her own plate.That night, as usual, Marcel took his pillow and blanket as he intended to sleep in the maid’s room.“Just sleep in my room,” Shirley invited Marcel hesitantly and reluctantly together.Marcel was initially unsure if Shirley mean

    Upon arrival at the in-laws’ office, Marcel went downstairs with Aldi to meet Herman together.Marcel, who was wearing a plain blue shirt and slick black trousers, walked beside Aldi, who told him to act like a conglomerate businessman.Marcel, who didn’t know anything, just complied with what Aldi suggested to him.“I’d like to see Mr Delvino,” Marcel said to the clerk at the desk. “I’m his son-in-law, soon to be ex.”The female employee reacted with difficulty as she tried to digest Marcel’s words, but she went inside Herman’s room to inform him of her son-in-law’s arrival.“How could he not know that you’re the son-in-law of his boss?” Aldi whispered in surprise.“You shouldn’t be surprised,” Marcel said in a low whisper. “My parents were hoping I would get a good career path.”Aldi glanced around.“It doesn’t matter if it’s a small company, you have dozens of companies ....”“We’re not talking about that here.” Marcel warned. “I’m your employee, right?”“Fine!” Aldi cleared his th

    Diko supports Ivan, whose stamina is completely drained after his fight with Lokan.“Mr. Marcel... how is it?” Diko asked while guiding Ivan who was stumbling along. “Also Mrs. Venya who delivered the tubes earlier...”“Safe,” answered Ivan quietly. “Our injured members…?”“It’s still being handled,” said Diko.Ivan nodded in relief, the two of them continued walking towards the crowded room.“We have to help them,” said Ivan as his eyes stared at the unconscious bodies of his members. “Where are the others?”“We are doing it in stages,” said Diko. “They’re all still alive, don’t worry...”Diko’s words were cut short when he and Ivan were staggered by a hard kick on their shoulders.When Diko turned around, Lokan had just landed smoothly on the ground. He grinned, clearly visible from his half-torn mask—he had the exact same face as Ivan.“He ....”“Impossible,” muttered Ivan with a pale face. “I used all my strength earlier...”“You traitors, repent!” said Lokan as he spread several

    Moments before ….Diko, who was under pressure, was forced to step back for a moment.“Just give up, leave this lab before we destroy it!”“This lab will forever belong to the Delvino family.”Ivan and his partner moved closer to Diko’s right and left to protect each other.“Where’s Suni?” asked Diko quietly.“Still in the car,” answered Ivan.“He followed Mr Marcelino who saved Mrs Venya,” added another colleague, making Diko stunned.“Wretched!” he thought to himself.The situation in the new lab was starting to get more and more out of control. People fought each other using wood, stone and even iron.“Don’t use firearms!” Ronnie was busy screaming in the middle of the field, as if he were a warlord targeting his prey. “I don’t want any corpses! It could be a hassle with the government!”Aldi employees who didn’t know anything had been running for their lives earlier, helped by several team members who had started to arrive.“Boss, the situation is starting to corner us!” reported

    Marcel was now riding in the car that would take him to where the Delvino family was, Aldi had warned him that caution was very important while dealing with the Delvino family.Unbeknownst to anyone, Aldi had apparently mobilized an additional special team to follow them because the Delvino family residence also had many trained bodyguards.And Aldi deliberately chose a route that no one else would have thought of.“We can’t say a word without being asked, understand?” Marcel asked his teammates sharply. “Instead of arguing, it’s better to prepare your energies to face the worst risks in case of a fistfight.”“We understand, Sir.” Diko nodded his head, while Ivan chose to remain silent.Their journey continued for half an hour until they finally entered a large and imposing gate with a gold gilded plaque that read Herman Corporation.“After this, the guard will be tighter,” Marcel murmured in a low whisper. “Make sure we watch what we say, because there’s a chance our conversations co

    Marcel looked at the rest of his colleagues in turn after they had painstakingly managed to get permission from Aldi to go forward to look for Ronnie’s whereabouts.“We can’t take all the guys with us,” he told Ivan. “Some have to stay here to keep an eye on Ronnie’s men that we’re holding hostage.”Diko and Ivan listened to Marcel’s words with serious faces.“What kind of person is Ronnie, anyway?” asked Diko curiously. “Do we really have to bring in special guards?”“Ronnie is Herman Delvino’s son,” Marcel replied slowly. “Our initial goal is just to find out what the Delvino family wants. We also need to find Ronnie’s whereabouts to make him accountable to us.”Marcel deliberately tucked a small firearm into his waistband.“The wiretaps won’t work there,” Marcel said again. “We’ll be searched several times, even our mobile phones will be detained according to their security procedures.”Diko paused in thought.“What should we do, Sir?” asked Ivan. “I want to carry a weapon that is

    “We’re already a team here,” Marcel said firmly. “What happens in the lab, it’s the same as disrupting this team.”Diko didn’t know what else to say.Several weeks passed ....The arrival of Ronnie’s men who had just returned from hospital was greeted with a tight escort from Aldi’s men.The boy himself has been prepared a special room with super tight supervision so that he cannot escape or establish communication with the people around him.“You have to stay conscious, Gio.” Aldi sat in front of Ronnie’s bed. “I’m sorry about what happened to you ...”“Thank you, but I don’t think that’s necessary!” said Gio while looking at Aldi with a hostile gaze. “My boss is going to get back at you for having the audacity to lock me up in this place ...”“I saved your life, don’t you remember?” asked Aldi flatly, looking at one of Ronnie’s men calculatingly.Gio didn’t answer and just looked away because he was locked up like a prisoner who had to submit at all times to the words of the warders

    Furthermore, the man whose name Ronnie did not know was busy mixing something not far from where he was.“Patience, Delvino? I’m making a formula that can fully restore your stamina,” the man joked to himself.Somebody save me, Ronnie thought to himself.“I’ve always hated young men who like to ruin their own bodies, whether it’s smoking, taking certain drugs ...” The man vented his frustration while pouring something into a pipette. “Ah yes, you must not know who I am ... Just call me Professor Rudolf.”Of course, Ronnie did not welcome this extraordinary introduction.Marcel’s brother-in-law could only resign himself, he hoped that the old man would let him go after making the formula for his body’s recovery unconditionally.Although it seemed impossible, as Professor Rudolf seemed obsessed with Ronnie’s physique.“So that’s it,” muttered Professor Rudolf while facing Ronnie. “I’m sorry, but you’ll have to stay here for the time being until the formula is perfect.”Ronnie didn’t und

    Aldi split the team into two parts after Marcel received a call from the lab.“Sir, I’ll just go to the family’s house.” Marcel volunteered as Aldi put him on the second team as the search team.“Hold on,” Aldi interrupted, looking at Marcel very sternly. “We don’t know if this is a trap from Delvino’s family or not, Mr Marcelino. So let me send someone to visit there.”Marcel didn’t have time to argue because at that moment Diko came into their midst.“Sir, all the teams are ready.” Diko reported.“We’re leaving now,” Aldi said, then turned to look at Venya. “You should stay in the lab ...”“But ... I owe you and Mr Marcelino a lot, I want to help too,” Venya insisted as she looked at Aldi, making it impossible for him to deny her request.“Let me drive,” Diko said as he grabbed Aldi’s car keys. “You still look sleepy, take a nap while I drive ...”“How can you?” said Aldi as he got into his own car and let Diko drive. “I’m not sure that Mr Herman Delvino would go out of his way, tha

    “How is your husband’s divorce going?” Miko asked Shirley, who was sitting next to her.The two of them were in the car and occasionally made out without regard to place and status.“I don’t know, he said he wants to keep divorcing me.” Shirley replied lightly. “Who cares, Marcel never existed-except with my housemaid.”Miko chuckled.“How could you want to marry a man who doesn’t have a good job,” she commented mockingly. “Marry a well-established man, at least one who can satisfy you in every way ....”Shirley tingled when the tip of Miko’s nose touched her ear.“It’s just a debt-redemption marriage,” Shirley argued as Miko moved away. “We’ll see, I’m not sure if Marcel has enough money to organize our divorce ... He thinks divorce doesn’t cost money?”Miko grasped Shirley’s hand as she said, “Until now, he hasn’t moved forward because of what? Because there’s no money!”“Indeed,” Shirley nodded in agreement.“Well, let your husband do what he wants.” Miko said. “With or without him

He bumped into one or two people who were intent on blocking his way.“Venya, I need your help!” Marcel exclaimed loudly.“Are you sure, Marcel?” Venya called back. “I can’t fight, Marcel!”“You just need to listen to my instructions!” Marcel said. “And do it without asking too many questions!”Venya couldn’t help but nod her head.“The important thing is that I can go home and see my father!” Venya exclaimed almost desperately. “I came here to continue my research, but why is it like this!”Marcel nodded his head, he stopped his running and lifted Venya up by her waist until both of her long legs were lifted off the ground.“Oh my, Marcel!” Venya exclaimed in surprise.“I’m sorry if I’m being rude!
