EPISODE 90
They were all sitting opposite each other, ready to hear the lawyer out.
Before Rio invited the lawyer at his house, they all have read the content of the docu-ment. It’s clear that Silver left an amount of money and some of his properties to Miracle. The other establishments that he has were transferred to Demetrius. As for the others, he donated it to charities.
” I didn’t know Silver is this rich!” Cherry exclaimed. ” I don’t have any idea about his properties!” She added.
”Indeed.” Stacy replied. ” But if you think about it, he actually did a great job donating some of his a-ssets to some charities…and that Island….” she stared at Miracle.
” Yes, he especifically ordered to hand it over to Miracle.” The lawyer completed her statement.
Aside from the money he transferred at Miracle’s name, he also gave her some of his properties, especially the Island and some of his rest house outside the country.
”Dang! I bet she’s now the youngest billionaire all over the country!” Stacy exclaimed in awe.
After the discussion about Silver’s properties, the lawyer contacted another person to let him know that Silver left a good fortune for him. Of course, the Mikasa have the right to see who the person is. It’s not because they hate the idea of sharing Silver’s wealth to an unknown person. But they just wanted to see who that person is.
He must be a very close and trusted friend to Silver for him to give him some of his wealth.
After a few more minutes, everyone heard a sound of a car that was parked at the garage. The guess have arrived.
” Oh! It’s you!” Eli exclaimed when he accidentally bumped the big man who just came in. The man only smiled.
”You know him sweetheart?” Aisha curiously asked. And when Miracle came from the comfort room, she got surprise to see the man who saved them!
” Mister Zebedee?” The little girl yelped.
The others’ gazes fell on the man. They must have been wondering who could this person be and how did the kids knew each other?
Perhaps… is he…
” Mom, dad… look, he is here. He is the one who saved us!” Eli introduced him.
” Good day everyone. It was Mr. Gray’s request so I’ve been watching over the kids since they came here.” Zebedee kowtowed.
” Mister Zebedee, please come and join us here.” Cherry stood up gracefully to welcome him. Then the others followed to shake his hand as well.
” Thank you for saving the kids.” Rio sincerely thanked the man. ” Please, tell us how we can repay you.” He further.
” Please don’t bother. It was my job to protect them under Silver’s orders.” He replied.
” Well, what a pleasant surprise!” The lawyer smiled seeing that everyone is in one accord. All throu-ghout his life serving as a lawyer, this must be the first time he witnessed a family not quarelling over the dead’s man possession. And they were even willing to share it!.
Ah, what a very disciplined family! They definitely deserves to be acknowledge. And Society must learn from their examples. Not greedy and just living simply.
” Mr. Zebedee sorry to bother you at this time but you actually have the right to know that Mr. Silver gray left you with some of his wealth.” Then he handed him a copy of the old man’s last will and testament.
The big guy can’t contain his tears– tears of joy. Who would even care to trust this mercenary a portion of his wealth? And it was actually more than enough to give his family a comfortable life!
He cried. He couldn’t believe the blessings he had just received today. That old man really.
” B-but… But I am not a part of Silver’s bloodline. How could I receive such wealth from him!” He bellowed and laid the papers on the small table in front of him.
” Mr. Zebedee—-” the lawyer was about to say something but Rio bu-tted in.
” Zeb, we understand your hesitations but none of us here also deserves all the things he left for each of us. But to question why he gave you such is an insult to a dead man, that I believe.”’ He uttered.
” We don’t have anything against his last will and testament. It was him who decided and we receiving a portion of it was also a blow. We did not expect him to consider us. So if there is someone more worthy to receive his wealth, I think that was you.” Rio continued.
The other family members that were present nodded in agreement as well. So Zebedee teared up even more. This people… is it really okay for them? All throu-ghout his life, he had seen family destroyed because of the love of money. But they are a bit different from the wealthy people he knew!
The lawyer seems to have sense what he was thinking so he smiled a-ssuringly as well. He himself were amazed at this family’s ideals.
” Let’s respect Silver’s last wish, can we?” Cherry added.
” and If you need more then please feel free to approach us anytime. We are more than happy to help you.” Ethan voiced is gratefullness as well.
They were all smiling wide. Therefore, Zebedee coulld not help but kneel on the floor before them and kowtowed sincerely.
” Thank you!” He cried. ” This is definitely a great help to sustain my family until the fourth generation.”
Indeed it will, since aside from giving him 1 billion, Silver also entrusted his three barns in the Central state to him. Moreover, he made him the CEO of his pharmaceutical company! who wouldn’t die in gratefullness because of that?
” Mr. Zebedee, please… stand up.” Aisha admonish the man but still, he kept his stance.
” I don’t know what I did to gain his favor. But this I promise. Me and my family until the fourth generation promise to serve you and your children in the future!” His head is touching the floor.
”Do as you please then, Mr. Zebedee.” Rio replied. ” and let us thank you in advance.”
He doesn’t want to accept his promise but the man won’t definitely stand up to his feet once his pledge isn’t acnowledge.
” Mister Zeb…” they heard a tiny voice from behind. It’s definitely mira. ” Thank you for saving me and my big brother that day. You were so cool back then.” She grinned and taps his shoulder.
” Thank you.” Eli walk near him as well.
” I made a promise to my good friend to protect you no matter what. And now, I can see why he changed so much… for the better, since he found you.” He told the sweet girl.
No wonder Silver adores her so much. She definitely possess a natural ability to melt people’s heart.

EPISODE 91 (FINALE)
It had been two weeks since everything went back to normal. No more wars, no more tears… and no more big time dramas. And since Ethan and Aisha moved back to their old house, Ethan had been sugggesting a week vacation for their honeymoon.
They were supposed to resume their honeymoon that was postponed because of the unexpected abduction. But unexpected things kept coming in between their plans.
The last thing they handled was Zoren’s case. At last, he was finally captured while trying to escape the country.
” Hey, are you mad?” Aisha was teasing him. The man have been taming the beast within him since the woman is trying to finish her final presentation tomorrow.
” Am I?” The man snorted while covering himself with the blanket. Then the woman’s mocking laugh echoed in the room.
” Yah!” The man couldn’t help but start to complain. ” Are we really married? Why don’t we go to our honeymoon already? Are you really going to torture this handsome man until he die?” He scowled.
But the woman was just laughing in her seat.
He twitched his li-ps in annoyance so he stood up and strides towards the woman and scoop her with his arms.
” Hey, what are you doing?! I’m not yet done with my presentation for tomorrow!” The woman wiggled but Ethan laid her on their king-sized bed. Now he’s on top her.
Aisha raised her brow. ” Ethan, not now… I really need to fini—–” she didn’t finish her statement since Ethan had captured her li-ps. she unknowingly because of his fiery ki-sses. And his other hand is now all over her body.
” I really hate waiting…” he seductively whispered in her ears. ” Don’t worry, I’ll help you with your presentation tomorrow.” The man grinned—- naughtily!
She suddenly stop the man from his further advances and raised her brow as she meets his eyes.
” Ethan.. whatever you’re thinking right now, I’m telling you… don’t even think of executing any of that!” She scowled.
The man suddenly chuckled. ” Hey, what’s with that accusing gaze? I won’t kill anybody!” He bellowed.
” Yah! Ethan. I’m telling you, stop doing nau-ghty things already. Remember the last time you offered help? You almost gave the director a heart attack!” She scolded him.
” But it was a smart move after all!’ He chuckled. ” I did save your .”
” Yah!” She pinched his side. ” Just don’t do anything to help me from now on. And please, don’t just show up unannounced in my cla-ss. You’re causing so much trouble.”
” Is it wrong to mark my territory?” He uttered then bend down to bite her shoulder. She jerked.
” But everybody knew it already. You really did a great-grand announcement during my first day.” She sighed.
”I don’t think that was enough.” The man was breaking since he slowly showers her body with his hot, pa-ssionate ki-sses. And his making his way… down!.
” B-but….”
Ethan had already raised the woman’s skirt and was on his way of removing the woman’s when they suddenly heard loud knocks on the door, followed by some loud voices calling out.
”Mom… dad….! We’re coming in!” They heard the little kids cried in unison.
Ethan really wanted to consume his woman tonight since they didn’t have the chance to be alone the past few days due to their busy schedules. But here comes another disturbance. Ethan cursed. It was loud enough that Aisha chuckled when she heard him.
”Hey, stop it. I don’t think the door was locked!” She leered.
And true enough, after a minute, they saw two little kids running towards them. They jumped on the bed and came in between them.
” Can we sleep here?” Eli and Miracle were grinning playfully.
” Sure.” Aisha smiled but Ethan rolled his eyes silently.
” Yehey!” They both exclaimed in unison. Then Eli laid beside his mother while Miracle inch closer to her father..
********
And Finally! After another week, Ethan and Aisha were able to get a ticket to travel. They’ve asked for one month vacation and it was granted automatically.
” Don’t worry, just enjoy your vacation. Make sure to come back with another grandchild, okay?” Cherry winked at the two couples.
” Yeah, enjoy!” Rio smiled as they bid goodbye to Aisha and Ethan who was about to go on their way to the airport.
Yeah, Asia! They will definitely have so much fun!
**TWO YEARS LATER**
Aisha was throwing tantrums again. Ah! What a complicated pregnancy. Was she this demanding and emotional when she conceived Miracle?
Now Ethan is worrying about the twins at Aisha’s .
” No, you don’t love me anymore! Is it because I became ugly? That I don’t have a good body figure? So what, you’re leaving me now?” Aisha was sobbing pathetically.
” What?! How did you even think about such crappy ideas? Hey! Who will leave who?” Ethan yelped.
” You!” She teared up. ” Now you have a reason to leave me and the kids for another woman.”
” Aisha! How could you think that way? I will never do that… and I never did it before either.”
”Tsk!” Aisha snorted. ”But you did it before.”
” to who?” Ethan raised his brow.
” Alex! Alex Miran! You courted her, right? You fell in love with her instantly. You even told me that before.” She sobs as she glares at the shocked man.
Eh? Seriously? She took his joke seriously? Ah, he wanted to get angry but he laughed mockingly instead.
” Aisha? Seriously? You’re jealous of your own self?!” He was still laughing hard. ” have you realized that you’ve been mad at your ownself?”
” I hate you!” She suddenly felt embara-ss. She was actually not a cry baby but why is she acting strange right now? Is it her hormones? Not sure either, so she turned his back on him but Ethan cupped her with his arms.
” Aisha.. I love you. I have love you before and I love you now and I will always love you tomorrow.” The man whispered and embraced the woman tight.
Aisha smiled. ” I love you more.” Then she faced the man and embrace him back.
After some months, Aisha gave birth to twins, two bouncing baby boys.

*EPILOGUE:*
” Eli! Where are you going? Wait for me!” Sahaya was chasing the grown-up guy who seems to be avoiding her.
” Will you stop following me! You’re becoming a nuisance already.” Eli faced the pan-ting lady.
They were already in first year high school but Sahaya is still acting like a child.
” A nuisance?!” She bellowed. ” Whatever! But you should get used to it since I will be your shadow forever.”
” tsk!” The guy rolled his eyes unbelievingly. He couldn’t even stand her for a day,so how could she conclude that forever things?
” And I won’t allow that to happen, ever!” Eli growled. Then finally, he saw his best friend Yohann running to where they are.
” Hey guys! How’s vacation?” The handsome dude ask. Then his eyes landed towards Sahaya. ” Hi Aya, it’s nice to see you early in the morning.” His eyes twinkled in delight.
But Sahaya only snorted and ignored the man. And Eli was able to catch the quick pain in his buddy’s face.
” Hey, why waste your time with this little kid?” Eli interjected. ”Come on let’s go.” He tapped his shoulder.
”Go! Insult me all you want WILLIAMS! but you can never run away from me. Your fate and mine has been carved a long time ago.!” Sahaya shamelessly yelled while looking at their retreating figures.
” That will never happen! I rather die as a bachelor!” Eli replied. Too bad, he could’t see how upset the lady was upon hearing his response.
” Don’t you think you’re a little bit harsh on her?” Yohann’s words was actually a statement not a question. He totally cares for Sahaya and Eli knew that full well.
” It’s best to shatter an impossible dream before it becomes a delusion.” Eli nonchalantly replied.
Upon hearing his bestfriend, Yohann suddenly glowed. Looks like Eli, his bestfriend don’t love Sahaya as a lady….he only cares about her just like a brother.
