At 09:35, Neo and Logan arrive at Rihan's mansion. The two were then invited in by Alen who was already waiting for their arrival.
Entering the living room, there was Rihan sitting relaxed while staring at the iPad in his hand. Next to Rihan there is Max who is cool with the game on his phone.
Sensing the arrival of Neo and Logan, Rihan immediately stopped his activities and placed his iPad on the table then looked towards the two men who had just taken a sitting position on the sofa in front of Rihan.
Without further ado, Rihan gives Neo a DNA test paper to read. Neo happily picked it up and read it. A thin smile etched on his lips read the results on the paper. Neo then gives the paper to Logan.
"Because she is obviously my sister, now I want to hear her condition from your first meeting to now. I want the details." Neo looked at Rihan and replied with a nod.
Without waiting for orders, Alen immediately explained the beginning of their meeting with Phiranita. Starting from those who almost hit Phiranita and took her to the hospital to the mansion accompanied by preliminary examination results to trauma and the final results of Phiranita examination after therapy. Not to forget also Alen explained who had done all this to Phiranita.
Neo who heard him clench his hand held back the emotions, as well as Logan. Both of them did not expect that Brand could do that. Neo thinks his sister is just locked up and is fine because Brand threatens Neo not to try to find Phiranita, otherwise Brand wants to do bad things to her.
Because of the threat, Neo can only monitor Brand's movements without knowing how his sister is doing. Now, after learning what had happened, Neo wanted to kill Brand.
"I didn't expect Brand to do that. God, I don't know what to say." Logan glanced at Neo who was holding back his emotions.
"Thank you for taking care of my sister. I'll reimburse you for all your expenses for Ira. Just tell me the number and I'll replace it." Neo spoke after calming himself down.
"He was like a brother to me. Everything I do for him is nothing. You can take him after talking to him." Rihan then glanced at Alen giving the code to pick up Phiranita in her room.
"alright. I owe you a lot. If you need anything, just tell me." Neo now stared intensely at Rihan.
"Hm."
"You're getting me interested in making friends with you" Inner Neo, who was still staring at Rihan.
Max, who is also in the living room, does not care much about the conversation of Rihan and Neo because he himself is cool with his cellphone. Sometimes he would steal their conversation.
Not waiting for long, Alen returned to the living room with Phiranita with him. The still frightened Phiranita quickly sat down next to Rihan.
Before Neo arrived, Phiranita had already explained by Rihan who Neo was with the results of DNA tests, so she wanted to see Neo's older brother. When looking at Neo's face, Phiranita did not recognize Neo at all. Understandably, because the two were raised separately since the age of 5 years.
Although it has been explained who Neo is, the body reaction of Phiranita is still the same that vibrates when Neo wants to hug her. Not to mention there's Max there too.
Max who saw Phiranita was still afraid of her immediately shifted to get a little away from Phiranita. Rihan could only sigh and calm Phiranita.
"He's your brother. From now on you will be his responsibility. But don't be afraid because our friendship will remain the same." Rihan whispers to Phiranita who looks down scared and tightly grasps Rihan's hand.
"Can't I just stay here? Honestly, I'm afraid of him." Phiranita also whispered.
"Try once you look at her as your sister. Eliminate those bad thoughts. Come on. I want to see it." Rihan whispered and stroked Phiranita's head.
Nodding softly, Phiranita immediately raised her head and stared fixedly at the face of Neo who was also looking at her and smiling gently. At first she was scared, but inwardly told herself that Neo was her brother so slowly the fear disappeared and was replaced with a thin smile.
"Didn't you really want to meet your family?" Said Rihan who was happy in his heart because Phiranita was not afraid anymore. Phiranita simply replied with a nod.
Neo who saw his sister's reaction was very happy. Neo then stood up and spread out his hands asking to be hugged.
"Give your brother a hug. Mm?"
"Don..."
"Go!"
Phiranita with a slow step approached Neo after she was completely sure and no longer felt afraid.
"Sister..."
GREPS
"Son misses you very much" Neo told the younger brother in his close arms.
"Act...I miss you too,"
"From now on come with brother, yes. We're going to go abroad and meet with Mami and Papi."
"Mommy... Papi?" Phiranita looked up at Neo.
"Hm. Mami and Papi must be happy to see you. You should know, if they miss you so much."
"Hindu? Then why have I been cared for since childhood by my uncle and aunt?"
"So I'll explain later. Come with brother, yeah."
"But..." Phiranita took off her embrace and turned to look at Rihan.
"Once I'll visit you. Get well soon because I've prepared a gift for you." Rihan was still with a flat expression but his eyes were looking gently at the friend.
"Is he numb? He's not expressing at all." Logan's comments inwardly astonished Rihan.
"I'll go with brother. I want to get well soon so I can walk around with Ehan." Phiranita nodded with determination.
"Ira doesn't want to go out with sister?"
"Later. After leaving with Ehan,"
"Originally you're happy brother's okay."
"Yes." Yeah."
"Eum."
Alen then escorted Phiranita to her room while keeping her to sleep. Seeing the departure of Alen and Phiranita, Neo sat back in his place and looked at Rihan seriously.
"Did Brand know Ira was with you?" Ask Neo.
"Yes." Yeah."
"He's met Ira here?"
"No."
"Good! Since Ira is safe with us, then cancel the contract with Miara Group." Neo's strict on Logan.
"But the contract cancellation fund is huge, almost equaling 1% of the company's shares."
"I don't care!"
"alright. After this, I'll send you a contract cancellation letter."
"After I take Ira overseas, maybe we won't see each other again." Neo's tone sounded softly at Rihan. I don't know why he's a little unwilling.
"Hm."
"That's better." Rihan continues in the heart.
After that it was quiet, until Neo again opened the conversation.
"Can you accept the contract of cooperation that we propose to RS Setia? I just want to repay your kindness by investing there." Neo suddenly gets the idea to always meet with Rihan.
"The proposal that Chi Corporation offered did not catch my attention. To me, it's normal. If brother was in my position, it would have been the same mind."
"All right, I get it. Tomorrow Logan will send you a more interesting proposal."
"Whatever."
"Slow again. Hish..." Inner Logan put on a pitiful smile.
***
Rihan is currently relaxing on the balcony of his room accompanied by Alen sitting next to him. After the return of Neo and Logan, Rihan returns to his room and just relaxes as there is no class today.
Max himself had gone to campus to take afternoon classes with a heavy heart because he had to go alone. As for Phiranita, she had already returned to resting.
"Sister Alex and Doctor Lio will arrive at 5pm." Alen broke the silence.
"Tell Alex to stay there and help with daddy and mommy's wedding anniversary. Just get Doctor Lio. Tell Alex not to forget what we've planned."
"Good, Miss."
After that it returned to silence, until the sound of a notification on Rihan's phone shifted his attention from the mansion garden.
Picking it up, Rihan then unlocks his phone and finds a challenge notification from the king of the game to play. Being lazy, Rihan simply ignored her and put the phone back on his side table.
***
Across the street from Brand's workspace, the man after sending a challenge message to Rihan, his phone is not placed and is always held for waiting for a reply from Rihan. Unfortunately it's been 20 minutes waiting, there's no reply. Out of curiosity, Brand re-opened the message to ascertain whether the message was sent or not. After checking, it was sent and even read.
"Dam... He ignored me." Brand put his phone rough. He was upset about being ignored.
"To my room now!" Brand talks through the intercom on his desk to Dom, his confidant.
"What's up, Boss?" Dom asked after standing before Brand.
"Bring my phone and wait for a reply from The Devil."
"You really challenged him?" Shocked Dom.
"Yes. Why why?"
"Nothing, Boss. You're not afraid to lose?" Said Dom carefully fearing the Boss being offended.
"You underestimated me? You obviously know my position in the game. Don't piss me off, Dom."
"I'm sorry, Boss."
"Go back to my place and don't forget to bring my phone."
"Good, Boss. I'm saying goodbye."
