THE ETERNAL DRAGON
CHAPTER 19 | Milena

After leaving Selena's house, the three of them went around visiting various historical places in Turkey. Sara has only come to Turkey for the first time, in contrast to Cindy who has been here several times.

Sara made a list of historical places she wanted to visit in Turkey such as Ephesus, Gobekli Tepe, Aphrodisias, Nemrut Dagi, Aspendos, Hattusa. Besides that, there are also other tourist attractions such as Hagia Sohpia, Basilica Cistern, Topkapi palace, Rumeli Castle and many other names.

Sara really enjoyed her vacation while studying archaeologists in Turkey. At each location they visited, Cindy gave a brief account of its history. John just silently watched them enjoy every place that even John was the perpetrator who was there when the history was told.

Not feeling the time almost dusk, they also returned to Selena's house happily enjoying the historical tour. Arriving at home, they see Selena is already wearing a graceful dress showing her sexy body shape for a middle-aged woman.

“Where are the aunts? ask Sara to Selena.

“You guys get ready, I've prepared a beautiful evening dress outfit in your room. We'll go to dinner in a romantic place tonight” continued Selena

Sara and Cindy happily heard that and immediately rushed to their rooms. Unlike John, he then asked Selena something.

“What's Selena” ask John.

“Then someone named Milena called me, saying that she knew your identity sir. Then he asked me to invite you to meet him at the dinner we're coming to tonight” Selena said.

“Then why take them both?” ask John

“He said it, that we should take them with us” Selena said back.

“Alright then. Let's see what this guy wants” said John as he headed to his room to prepare.

While cleaning up, John thought this must have something to do with Violet. So he prepared when the possibility of Khaga also came with them.

After a few minutes, John and Selena were already waiting in the living room.

John was wearing his usual simple clothes, Selena was wearing a luxurious long black dress and expensive jewelry adorned her neck.

“You're pretty good with pampering yourself like this Selena. You look beautiful” said John commenting on her beautiful appearance.

“Sure sir, my life is only once. Different from you sir.” continued Selena while smiling sweetly.

Soon, Cindy appeared in a long dark blue dress that was also very elegant showing her beautiful curves. Cindy's face reddened as her eyes met John's face.

“Wah, you look so beautiful Cindy” Selena said.

Then came Sara who was wearing a long red dress which also showed her beautiful young curves. John's heart thumped at Sara's presence, but he tried to calm himself down. The Sara he saw at this moment was very different from the one he saw everyday.

John's eyes were fixed on the necklace around Sara's neck with a dark green gem that he had just seen this time. John saw an extremely strong green aura emanating from the gem. It was beautiful, John. Very compatible with Sara's beauty.

“Beautiful necklace Sara. I've never seen you wear it?” ask John

“I found this gem that was attached to the rocks by accident while cleaning the grave of my grandparents. Then I made a necklace, which I wanted to show you John” said Sara who looked blushed by John's praise.

“That's kind of jade” Selena said. “You're very lucky to find Sara. It is very suitable for you”

Sara was happy to see the people who were near her at this time. When he mentioned his grandfather earlier he felt lost, but once he saw them, the loss was lost by their mutual happiness.

Then they set out together to a place near the port of Istanbul which is in a tall building that has a beautiful view of the city and port at night.

The four of them also sit in a place that has been reserved in the name of Milena, which is a luxury vip room that is separate from other public visitor rooms. They sat there waiting for the order to be served by the waiter.

Selena and John looked around them, watching everyone who was there. John carefully sharpens his sense of hearing to listen to every movement.

“I don't feel any strange movement around here” whispered John

In contrast to Sara and Cindy who did not pay too much attention to the surrounding, they were cool to talk about visits to historical places that were then recorded by Sara as the final task material.

“They came” whispered John to Selena when he heard different footsteps approaching their place.

“Goodnight” said a woman who came to the vip room accompanied by two well-bodied men like her bodyguards who then stood outside the door guarding the room.

“Nona Selena, how are you?” the man said as he approached Selena and extended his hand.

“Both Miss Milena” said Selena while returning Milena's handshake

“Please sit miss” Selena said again.

“This must be Mr. Araga” said Milena who immediately called the identity of John without a stale base.

Right, he knew my identity without asking, thought John who then added his vigilance. Is Khaga coming too? think John is next.

“Oh, they are of course Cindy and Sara” continued Milena who was returned by their hands.

“Well, Miss Milena, what is the need to invite us to meet here?” ask Selena directly.

“I brought a message from my superiors that you must have known to ask for help.” Milena said

“Who is your boss. What help?” ask Selena back

“Who is my boss, I think Mr. Araga must have expected” Milena replied as she glanced at John.

“Violet kan” replied John after reading Milena's mind.

“True. Mr. Araga is indeed amazing” said Milena back

“I came here to ask for help from you sir, please give permission to Cindy and Sara to join our expedition team”.

Cindy and Sara who were listening to the conversation became stunned. Why did they have to ask John for permission to join him?

“Then to Miss Cindy and Sara, we beg your help next” pinta Milena while lowering her body.

John was silent thinking about what steps were taken by Khaga, why they insisted they want to invite people near him to join their expedition.

“It seems that I underestimated your boss miss” John told Milena, smiling at Milena.

“Tell Violet, it's up to Cindy and Sara to join or not”.

“Nona Milena, I have signed up to join your expedition team” Cindy said.

“If I have not registered because I am still a student, so I have not dared to join” said Sara while bowing her head.

“It's okay miss Sara. For this expedition we also include students to intern in the expedition, as well as provide experience for them to jump directly into a research. If miss deigns, please join signup” continued Milena

“Alright then, tomorrow I will register” Sara said back

“After, I have delivered a message from my superiors. Please go back to your dinner” said Milena who then left the four of them in the room.
