Revenge: Reborn
Chapter 68 There.s no such thing as a free lunch
Seeing the reaction of his grandfather who fell because he held back anger, Thomas immediately ran to hold his grandfather. Thomas was really very surprised and like having a heart sport. As an outsider who never knew about the problems in the Iswara family, Jack was only confused to stare at the commotion that happened to this family. He wanted to come talk, but was worried about offending one of the parties in this family.
"Grandpa is calm, drink first!" Thomas took the mineral water on the table and gave it to Grandpa.
Grandfather drank two sips of water that Thomas drank directly in his mouth, as soon as his chest felt a little relieved.
"Grandfather.., now take a deep breath first. Then get kicked out again!" Thomas drives grandfather to take a deep breath and exhale him again.
After his grandfather stabilized his breathing, Thomas approached Mr and Lady Iswara, and immediately rebuked him.
"Please pa.., ma..., stop this pointless debate! Grandfather today just came from the hospital, and also we have only two guests. It's not appropriate if we constantly fuss over this matter." Thomas told his parents.
"Perhaps if grandfather dies, they'll stop fussing about this Thomas. Only one request if Grandpa dies, take care of Ivona. He has suffered for too long" said the grandfather who seemed to have begun to resign to his condition.
"It's cake.., Thomas is sure nothing will happen with grandfather. Next week Ivona's grandfather has arranged to immediately run the operation in Jakarta, and will be directly handled by Doctor Tantowi himself. Thomas also trusted Ivona very much kek." hearing Thomas' last words, grandfather looked satisfied and slowly his heart began to calm and steady again.
*************
For a moment there was only silence in that central room, Lord and Lady Iswara no longer dared to speak. Suddenly, Alexander's voice came from the doorway.
"Jack. I still have business with this family. You go home first, I'll catch up with you as soon as my business is done!" Alexander asks Jack to go home first.
"But would it be okay if I left you first." Jack stared in disbelief at Alexander.
"Don't worry about me, I'll be able to take care of myself." Alexander assured Jack.
Jack then goes inside and bids farewell with his grandfather, Thomas, Lord and Lady Iswara.
"Grandfather.., Master and Mistress are also Thomas.. Please tell me I will come back first! There's still business I need to get done." Jack said goodbye to Iswara's family.
"Okay Jack.., forgive us for giving a bad impression on your visit this time! Please come back to this house next time, we'll be very happy to receive you" he told Jack.
"It's okay, grandpa, I go home first." Jack then set foot leaving the Iswara family home.
"Bro.., I go home first!" patting Alexander on the back, Jack walked out of the house.
"Yupz, be careful." Alexander said quickly. Upon seeing Jack enter the car, Alexander walked towards the grandfather's presence.
"May I want Alex. What do you want to talk to me about?" ask grandpa with a smile.
"Alex wants to offer a cooperation agreement between Kavindra Group and the grandfather company, this Alex gave as a gift for grandfather's birthday." Alexander held out two sheets of paper containing a draft cooperation agreement. In the agreement, it is stated that they will do business together in a way that each party will get 50% profit sharing%.
Unbelieving the content contained in the agreement, grandfather read it once more. After feeling confident in what he read....,
"Son Alex.., did grandfather not misread the contents of the cooperation agreement you offered. My company is not comparable to the Kavindra Group, but you easily offer this agreement. Even the profit sharing you offered exceeded my reasonable expectations." Grandpa asked Alexander directly.
Alexander smiled, then drew closer to grandfather.
"There.s no such thing as a free lunch." said an idiom from Alexander's mouth which means there is no gartist in this world.
"What do you mean?? What contribution do we have to make to this agreement?" feeling puzzled, grandfather again asked the young man.
"I only want Ivona, nothing else." in a steady but slow voice, Alexander replied while giving a smile to grandfather. The seriousness of his eyes, when he mentioned Ivona's name.
Everyone sitting in the living room was shocked to hear the young man from the CEO of Kavindra Group answer. Seemed an envious and unaccepting look on the faces of Lord and Lady Iswara. From the beginning they arranged an alliance between Vaya and the CEO, but the man always wanted Ivona.
"I'm sorry son Alex.., I'm not going to sell Ivona just to be able to get that cooperation agreement, my grandson is much more valuable than all the assets of the company I have, he said, even my life was not comparable to exchange for my granddaughter Ivona." Grandfather vehemently rejected Alexander's proposal.
"Please don't misunderstand me first" Alexander said with a smile.
"Mr Alex..., why did I observe Mr. Alex so much about Ivona?? Can't it be if Mr Alex likes the girl?" Mrs Iswara asked the young CEO. In his heart, he really would not be willing, if Ivona to be chosen by Alexander, why not his daughter Vaya.
"Why is everyone doubting my feelings for that girl?? Do all those who sit here, know and realize if their biological daughter or granddaughter does not come home for a few days?? Or can you really not care where the girl is going, so for her she came home or no longer has meaning?" with a dismissive smile, Alexander instead gave a question that cornered the people who were in the living room.
"Is it true what Alex's son said?? My granddaughter while I was in the hospital, didn't know where she was and where she slept?" hearing Alexander's words, grandfather felt his blood rise again.
"Relax grandfather.., nothing happened to Ivona all this time. He is in the right place, and all his needs will be met. Trust me!" with a smile, Alexander again calmed grandfather.
Grandfather was silent for a while, but then a smile appeared on his old lips.
"Has Alex been holding my granddaughter Ivona?" said grandfather who immediately surprised the people who were there.
