Watching the sunset while eating delicious food made Riki feel very relaxed at that moment.
The sky was filled with orange hues, it was very beautiful.
When the view was complete, Riki turned to the others. They were also eating while enjoying the evening. Accompanied by brightly lit lamps.
The atmosphere was so relaxed, with the sound of waves crashing on the beach.
Riki's thoughts returned to Sandra, and he was sure that woman would not give up so easily. She would definitely approach Riki again, trying to find a way to get what she wanted. She really had no shame.
However, Riki would not let them go; he would make sure they suffered just like his family had.
"What are you thinking about, bro?" Evan came and sat next to Riki.
Riki turned to him and shook his head slowly, "No, just enjoying the food."
Evan chuckled at Riki's answer, "Oh gosh, you think I can't see that you're clearly thinking about something. Are you thinking about your family again?"
Riki snorted, "You're right, of course I'm still thinking about them. Because this is unfair to me. When I was little, I always heard people say that good will always triumph over evil. But look at my family. We were wronged, and the people who wronged us are living comfortably with lots of money."
Evan nodded. He could understand how Riki felt. If Evan were Riki, he would never forget anything. He would always remember, no matter how long it took.
"So, what are you going to do, buddy?" asked Evan.
Riki smiled mysteriously, "Just wait and see. One thing's for sure, I won't let them live comfortably. I'll come up with a good plan soon."
"Oh, can I help you?"
Riki nodded, "Yes, of course."
Riki was happy to have a friend like Evan, who was always there for him, who had been a sincere friend from the start. Evan's only flaw was... he was a bit of a coward. But Riki was also a coward, so he could understand that.
A few hours later, the mansion became very quiet.
Riki was still there because he also wanted to enjoy the luxury. There were about three servants in the mansion who took care of the house. However, they were resting at the moment. Only Riki was awake that night.
It was midnight, and Riki was still playing with his smartphone. He was looking at the promotional advertisement that Jake had created. The ad had been distributed everywhere, requiring a large amount of money.
About five hours had passed since the ad, which only showed the product, was distributed, but the sales figures in various marketplaces had increased dramatically.
Riki handled the online sales himself. He used a delivery service set up by his system. Once each buyer transferred the money, the system automatically sent the goods. Riki did this not only because it was very practical, but also to reduce the burden on his employees.
Riki could hire several people to manage the delivery of goods, but he would need a lot of preparation for that. Such as a warehouse to store the goods, and so on.
Riki might do that if sales figures increased significantly and stabilized. After all, hiring several people for that would reduce the unemployment rate in his country.
That would be a good thing.
Angeline agreed to model the beauty products, on the condition that Liz would do it too.
Riki agreed, but Liz didn't. Riki didn't understand why Liz was so insecure, even though she was so beautiful, regardless of whether she was thin or chubby.
But in the end, Liz agreed to do it with Angeline, only because Angeline was stubborn and said she would refuse if Liz didn't want to.
The issue was finally resolved, and Angeline even promoted the products on her personal social media account.
"The online business problem is now solved. Next..." Riki fell silent when suddenly, several gold envelopes containing clues about his father's death appeared in front of him.
Of course, it was the system that brought those objects there. They were lying on the bed where Riki was sitting comfortably, leaning back on soft pillows.
Reluctantly, Riki reached for the envelopes.
He mustered the courage to open one of them.
It turned out that the envelope contained clues about how his father had suffered a heart attack and died suddenly.
The clues were on a piece of paper, with a link and a barcode written on it.
After Riki scanned the barcode, he was directed to a website.
It was a website containing a collection of CCTV footage.
Riki opened the first CCTV video and watched it anxiously.
In the video, which had been converted to HD, he saw his father being approached by a woman.
Riki knew the woman was Sandra, even though only her back was visible. Although the sound in the video was quite low, Riki could still hear their conversation clearly.
It turned out that Sandra told Edwin, Riki's father, that Anton was actually her son. Sandra threatened Edwin to tell all the facts to Edwin's wife, Riki's mother. After that, Sandra left. However, Edwin, who was still in his office, looked very strange. He was having difficulty breathing.
Riki couldn't continue watching the video because he knew what happened next.
His father died an hour later.
Riki tried to calm himself by taking a deep breath and then exhaling slowly.
Even though he felt calm, his anger had not subsided. With his emotions running high, Riki copied the video and sent it to someone.
It was Sandra's husband, using a new number that no one could trace. A few moments later, he sent the video to Sandra, using his own number. Riki also sent a message to Sandra.
"Auntie, is this you? Someone sent me this video."
Riki bit his lower lip, feeling nervous at that moment. But, he was feeling better and he also felt very relieved.
He may have destroyed that family, but he didn't care at all.
Not long after, Sandra replied to Riki.
"Where did you get that video?"
And Riki just left the message, not replying at all. Let Sandra be uneasy at home.
"You're not asleep yet, Riki?"
Riki jumped, he immediately turned to his bedroom door. He didn't even hear the door open, suddenly Zeno was there.
Indeed, only Zeno was still staying at the mansion. Meanwhile, Evan, Kaivan, Liz, and Angeline had gone home around nine o'clock that night.
Riki reflexively moved his smartphone away.
"What's wrong? Why are you panicking? What are you looking at on your smartphone?" asked Zeno. He yawned briefly before approaching Riki.
"You surprised me, Zeno... I thought you were someone else."
Zeno chuckled, then sat down next to Riki.
"I just came to tell you that my mother has arrived from Australia. You said you wanted to meet her and ask about your father's past, right? My mother also really wants to meet you, Riki," said Zeno.
Riki became enthusiastic upon hearing this, "Oh, really? Then tomorrow morning—"
"My mother will be here, along with my twin brother, Aslan," Zeno interrupted Riki, just as enthusiastic.
Riki's brow furrowed in surprise, "You... since when did you have a twin brother?"
Zeno laughed, "Haha, he's rarely in this country, and he's always skipped grades. So, he graduated from high school when I was only in the second year of junior high school. After that, he went to college in Australia and lived there with our grandmother. My family also often visited him there, especially during my school holidays. And now, Aslan has started his own business in Australia. Since the business is stable now, he has returned to this country with my mother. Aslan just called me and said it would be better if he and my mother came here in the morning."
Riki nodded, but then he frowned when he heard the last sentence.
"Why are he and your mother coming here? Won't that be inconvenient? It would be better if we went there instead."
Zeno laughed again, then replied, "Actually, he's very upset that you bought this mansion. Aslan really wanted this mansion, so he wanted to come here right away. Besides, it's no trouble, because my mother and Aslan want to taste your cooking."
Riki slapped his forehead, "gosh, what did you tell them about me?"
Zeno smiled broadly and replied, "Almost everything! Because I'm proud to have a friend like you." He said with a proud smile.
"You're very unique, Zeno..."
"Really?"
"Yeah, you make it impossible for me to be mad at you."
"Hey, that's just you who can't get angry. I see you as too good a person. Once in a while, being mean to people, especially those who have been mean to you, is okay and normal, Riki."
"What do you mean?"
Zeno smiled, then patted Riki on the shoulder and said.
"You're not harsh enough on people who have hurt your family. Do you still have fear inside you... repay them with a fitting response, if possible, even greater than what they did."
Hearing Zeno's words, Riki realized it. Riki was too soft on them.
"I think you're right... then, can you help me? Give me some advice, what should I do now?" asked Riki.
Zeno grinned, "I can suggest cruel things."
"Don't be too cruel."
Zeno flicked Riki's head, "You idiot! We have to be cruel to bad people! Ugh, you're annoying me, Riki. Now listen to me."
