9 HENRY'S STORY (2)

"Who is that Grandma Janet and uncle Marcos, Henry? "Bubu asked, curious because the two people had made a small child like Bian scared.

"Aunt Janet's sister, her father Adelina. And Marcos was the first child of Aunt Janet." Henry said that he couldn't do anything about power in the company, because everything belonged to his wife.

And as the daughter of Edward, Adelina who continues her business Edward by becoming the main owner there.

Unfortunately Adelina prefers freedom and gives Aunt Janet the right to take care of all matters in the company.

"Indeed, how big your company and wealth are in Europe?" Bubu asked, more and more curious, is he richer than Ardham's grandfather.

"Adelina's father, Mr. Edward, can be said to be among the five richest people in European countries with several companies that have spread throughout the world. Including this hotel, this hotel actually belongs to Adelina too." said Henry without meaning to boast.

"Wow, what luck for you?" Bubu said with a laugh which immediately got a hard pinch from Haruka.

"What the heck, honey, I just asked Henry only. I've known Henry for a long time. He won't be offended by my question." Said Bubu while rubbing his stomach which Haruka pinched.

Henry laughed softly seeing Bubu who never changed remained relaxed in his attitude

"What Bubu said was true, it became my fortune when I was able to marry a beautiful and kind woman like Adelina. Not to mention the presence of our daughter Bian, what a fortune. And I know Bubu very well, especially Ardham's grandfather and uncle Ryu's father Bubu who is very famous for companies that are everywhere too. Unfortunately from the time Bubu High School never wanted to be tied down with it, Bubu was indeed different from his other siblings." Henry said at length talking about a Bubu in his eyes.

"Hear that Haruka, even Henry knows about Grandpa Ardham and Dad." Bubu said as he looked at his wife who still looked annoyed with Bubu's attitude that never made small talk to people.

"Yes my dear husband." said Haruka with an exasperated look seeing the impressive Bubu who remained ignorant in front of Henry and Adelina.

"We continue to tell my story about my wife's family okay?" Henry said he wanted Bubu to know the whole story with his wife's tense family.

"Just carry on, I'll hear about it." Bubu said seriously.

"Haruka, we better take a walk to the park with Bian okay." said Adelina a little sad when remembering about her extended family.

"Come on, beautiful girl, follow beautiful Momy and Momy to the park." Said Haruka carrying Bian from Bubu's lap.

"Mom is beautiful, can you put me down? Mommy will be tired if carry me all the time." Said Bian with her innocent eyes.

"Okay honey, let's go." Said Haruka holding Bian's tiny hand.

After Adelina and Haruka left the place, Bubu looked at Henry seriously.

"Now you can continue your story calmly." Said Bubu, leaning his back against the chair.

"Actually, I got married to Adelina with lots of obstacles. Even though Adelina's parents agreed, the other extended family disagreed. Especially Aunt Janet and Uncle Greg, they wanted Adelina to marry Aunt Janet's first son named Marcos. Marcos is actually not Aunt Janet's biological child but the son of a deceased ex-Aunt Janet. Apart from Marcos, Aunt Janet has a daughter named Lily. Lily used to love me but I'm grateful that Lily is married to Aunt Janet's choice. Until this story, did you have anything to ask?" Henry asked with a sad face and very serious.

Bubu is silent thinking about a question that will be asked of Henry.

"Until now, has Marcos been married?" Bubu asked, curious about Marcos, the son of her ex until Janet took care of him.

"After I married Adelina, Marcos also married Aunt Janet's choice. Marcos also has a son the same age as Bian named Morgan. Aunt Janet wanted to match Bian with Morgan but Adelina refused, because for Adelina Bian's happiness was very important." Henry said increasingly saddened by the problems in his extended family just because of Daddy Edward's inheritance.

"How about Uncle Greg? Why doesn't he agree with you?" Bubu asked a little thinking hard about Adelina's extended family.

"Uncle Greg's father is Edward's youngest brother, to be exact, a half-brother who has yet to be married. And it looks like Uncle Greg loves Adelina too." said Henry, drinking his cold tea.

"Your extended family is also complicated? Then apart from your problems that they don't agree with, your in-laws are kind to you, aren't you?" Tanya Bubu began to know the background of Henry and Adelina.

"My in-laws are very kind, even want me to be his successor. But I refused, because the one who deserves more is my wife. Until one day, my two in-laws were found dead in their private home. And the results of their autopsy were pronounced dead from poison. And strangely, until now we don't know who poisoned Adelina's parents. Even though Adelina has hired many services to investigate it." Henry said, pressing his temples.

"It's strange, why did your in-laws die unnaturally? And now what do you conclude by knowing your in-laws died unnaturally? but in people's poison?" Bubu asked staring at Henry's face, which looked nervous.

"It seems like there is someone who intends to spend my family. Because after the incident my father-in-law died, Adelina was often terrorized with a message to leave the European country if she wanted to survive. And Adelina did not respond until one day Adelina drove a car and an accident occurred which caused Adelina to not have any more children." Henry replied while taking out his cellphone and showing some photos of his extended family.

While showing the photo, Henry gave his name and explained who they were in his extended family.

"You can send it to my cell. because I'm sometimes lazy to remember and think." Said Bubu, who did not know why he was very interested in Henry's story.

After listening to everything from the beginning to the end of the story, Bubu can only be silent and a little starts to think that the life of Henry's family is in danger.
