Not the Substitute Girl
Dark Side

Elsewhere, a middle-aged man is seen walking into Beni Athaya's study. One file the man put on the table. Beni asks if his confidant can get what he wants. The man nodded slowly.

"Orion's identity is very suspicious. But I see he's very attentive to Sera." Beni nodded his head, agreeing with the opinion of Adnan, the butler of the Athaya family, the confidant of Beni, the father of Vano. Decades of service to the rich family, making Adnan memorized and know the ins and outs of the Athaya family.

"That's all that matters. I don't care about someone's background. As long as they're good to my grandchildren, I won't bother them."

A moment of silence said hello. The two people who were no longer young stared out the window. Where a green house is located there. It used to be his three grandchildren. Felix, Sera, Darrel plus Vano really like to play there. Planting flowers, and other plants. Makes the atmosphere of the house feel so happy.

"I miss those days, Ad," Beni's gaze glared far away. In the past while working from his study, he could hear the cry of little Sera crying from being bullied by her brother and cousin. With reason because Sera is a woman herself. At such a time there would be one child defending Sera. Valdy, Vano's friend. Neighboring son Vano who often played in the big house.

Beni exhaled his breath rough. Everything changed when Felix was 17. An accident leaves Felix and Valdy dead. The Athaya family is in mourning and in great loss. With the Valdy family. Although not a wealthy family like the Athaya family, but the loss of their only son, made the family shaken. In the end, the family moved, out of nowhere. There's no word on Valdy's parents.

"Why do I remember Valdy" Beni murmured.

"Is something wrong?" Adnan asked, and Beni shook her head slowly. In the end Beni only gave the order, to keep an eye on the two Sera parents. Felix's death made Sera's father and mother hate the girl. They continue to blame Sera for the brother's death.

"You see when they tortured Sera. Wouldn't it be enough to punish the boy by throwing him to Milan for ten years. Living alone there without family."

Beni sighed, because of that, the old man always kept warm to Sera. Beni is trying to show that she loves Sera. Amidst the hatred shown by her two parents as well as her own aunt and cousin.

Darrel himself changes traits after the man grows up, with the mother's sedition filling Darrel's head. Influence Darrel to take SJ from Felix and Sera. After Felix's death, Darrel's chances are wide open. Sera was later transferred abroad. For the reason of studying there.

Beni knew something was going on in her family. Treasure made his son and grandson attack each other, though still subtly. The most regrettable is Felix, the eldest grandson who became a victim of the greed of his own family. Plus Valdy who is a nobody, but also dragged Athaya family problems.

Beni knows that Felix's accident was no ordinary accident. There was an element of intent in that incident. But until now, all of Beni's investigations have been deadlocked. All the evidence shows that it was an accident with no elements of sabotage.

"Grandfather just hopes to see you again. Apologizing for all of Grandpa's mistakes. I thought I was being fair to you, but I haven't. They still do not accept what Grandpa has given. They are very greedy, wanting to master all by themselves. Forgive Grandpa Felix, Valdy."

Without anyone knowing, anyone heard Beni's monologue. The man then turned around, leaving Sera's grandfather's office. The entrance to Alea's room she knew was empty, and the safest place in the house was.

"How is he doing?"

The man fell silent, hearing someone's answer from the other end. There was hope on the man's face. He breathed in after the call was interrupted. "This time you'll be ready to avenge those who caused Sera to die." The man's hands were clenched tightly. Ten years he waited, soon the day would come.

"Ouch......"

"Look off to sleep!" one voice made Alea straighten up her body. Surprised by Orion who was already standing looming before him. The man stared dislikefully at Alea.

"What's? I'm human..aihhh....."

"I still haven't kissed you this afternoon for arguing a lot. Will I repeat again?"

Alea glared at the threat of Orion. "You're threatening me for your own benefit. If you like to play girls, find one there. Play until morning. But don't think I'm as cheap as they are."

Alea brushed off Orion's hand clamping down on her chin. "You're getting brave, aren't you?" challenge Orion.

"I will fight those who oppress me!" firmly Alea. The two get back into the view. Until Orion turns his face away, reluctantly prolongs his debate with Alea. The man was convinced that Alea was not the type who would give up easily.

"really? I don't seem to believe it," Orion brought his face closer to Alea. The girl reflexively retreated. Avoiding physical contact with Orion was the best option for Alea. What else after the incident that man dared to kiss her.

"really? But I can't believe your feelings for Sera. She just died a month ago and you've dared to touch another girl." Alea raised her face, giving Orion a challenging look.

Orion smiled faintly. Alea was momentarily stunned, seeing Orion smile for the first time. "Do you think our relationship is what you imagined it to be?"

Alea's eyes grew sharper. What does Orion mean? Is that guy saying that he and Sera don't love each other.

"What do you mean? Don't you love Sera?"

This time Orion clearly smiled widely. "Love? Do you think love is there for us? We upper class do not know the word love. We only know marriage, which is mutually beneficial....."

Platkkkk....

Somehow Alea felt pain with Orion's words. Not accept if Sera is only used. The man clearly implied that he did not love Sera. Orion's face turned dark. The next second, the man blocked Alea's two hands. Dropped Alea's body onto the carpet. Then he covered the girl's body.

"You dare slap me?! I'm telling you, no one has ever dared to touch my face without my permission! But you, sassy slapped me!"

Orion again displayed his dark side, which again frightened Alea. Orion is terrible.
