The man faintly pursed his lips and sighed. "Sotis you are too smart, and it gives a headache."
"This is better than being just a sweet and spoiled woman." Lilia raised her eyebrows and muttered.
Hearing that, the man laughed.
In about twenty minutes, they arrived at the Lakeside Villa.
As the vehicle approaches, Lilia accidentally sees a long lost figure through the car window.
Her lips unknowingly muttered, "Daniel..."
It has been a long ti since Lilia had seen her brother, especially after the sick jokes that Sylvia made about her.
When they clashed online, she deleted all evidence that could lead to Daniel's whereabouts.
When the car ca to a complete stop, Lilia got off and saw the teenager standing in front of the fence while screaming, "Daniel!"
At this ti, Daniel's bowed head rose as he raised his eyes. With a loud voice, he returned Lilia's greeting while grinning. "Sister!"
Lilia walked over to him, and her eyes were carefully observing the big boy in front of her.
After the change in their family, he looked more mature.
"Why did you co here and not call first? You must have been waiting a long ti!"
Lilia pushed open the gate, and was about to invite him in, but Daniel just smiled and scratched his hair. "Sis, I will not enter. I ca here today to say goodbye to you!"
"Goodbye?" Lilia stopped in her step.
When Daniel nodded, he heard the sound of a car's door getting opened, he turned his head, t the man's gaze. He then politely greeted him, "Brother-in-law."
"Son, if you have ti, co in and talk about it!" The man walked quietly and passed.
Seeing this, Daniel didn't dare to refuse any more, so he followed them and entered the house.
...
In the living room , Jean went to the study and gave the two siblings the space to have a heart-to-heart conversation.
Daniel was sitting on the sofa, seemingly reluctant.
Lilia poured a glass of water for him. "You want to say goodbye, huh? What's wrong?"
Daniel took the glass of water and held it in the palm of his hand, his voice was dull. "I'm going to Mojokerto."
"Mojokerto?" Lilia is familiar with this place, but has no special impression.
Daniel sighed, then opened his eyes and looked at Lilia for a mont. "Sister, I'm sorry! I also want to apologize to you for the things my parents did!"
"You don't need to apologize, it's all over anyway so let's not talk about it. After all, what they did had nothing to do with you!"
Daniel saw that his sister didn't look at him with the slightest bit of wariness nor suspicion, so he was feeling a bit uncomfortable.
His eyes were red as his hoarse voice ca out, "Sister, I saw the press conference that mother was holding at the ti, but I didn't co out to help you. I… I'm no longer worthy to be your brother!"
That ti was a difficult choice for Daniel.
He knew that what that woman was doing was too disgusting, but after all, she was his mother.
He knew Sylvia had made many mistakes, but even so, she was still the woman who gave birth to him.
At that ti, he locked himself in his room, afraid to open his cell phone, or even to leave his room; he was very afraid of being recognized as Sylvia's son.
She embarrassed him, but he was completely helpless.
At this mont, Lilia understood her brother's regret and smiled a little. "What are you saying, you stupid! What's there to bla? Besides, even if you were going to help then, I would definitely stop you. Daniel, it's all over, if you still think of as your sister, then you should forget the past."
Daniel suddenly raised his eyes, his nose trembled and his voice choked. "Sis, I'm sorry..."
"Yeah! I know! Co on, don't overdo it," Lilia couldn't see his painful expression, and inadvertently softened her tone as she cald him down. "Daniel, don't ntion this matter anymore, okay! Now, try to explain to , what are you going to do in Mojokerto?"
Lilia forcefully changed the subject, she didn't want her little brother to bla himself.
Life is so short, why should we be so hard on ourselves if we can live this life in full harmony?
Daniel's heart could feel the aura of affection from his sister, he lowered his head and began to sort out his emotions.
After a while, he explained in a low voice. "I temporarily suspended my school. I want to accompany my father to perform the surgery there and take care of him! After our family's property in Surabaya has fallen into the hands of others, at least I want to be devoted to my parents! After all, I am still young, but… yeah, you know, I still can't find a proper job."
Lilia listened to his explanation then thought of one thing.
Daniel is all grown up!
After going through so many changes and adversities, this big boy was definitely the most affected.
Lilia didn't force him to leave her, but she just said, "In that case, if you need anything in the future or if you want to return to Surabaya, please tell at any ti!"
"I will always be waiting for you in this house. If you want to co back, you are always welco in this house! Don't worry," she added.
Her younger brother decided to put everything aside and take care of his father in Mojokerto. Lilia is truly proud of Daniel's developnt. But she didn't want to see Robert and Sylvia do unforgivable things to her little brother anymore.
Daniel didn't stay long. Before leaving, he stood at the entrance to the hallway, hesitated and took out a note from his pocket. "Sis, this… I don't know if this will be of use to you or not. This is the account number that I copied from my mother's bank account. I checked her bank account. Looks like it's not a dostic bank account. Maybe you need this as a clue."
Lilia stared at him as Daniel handed out the notes. She imdiately received it and said in a comforting voice. "Thank you!"
"You're welco sis, then... I'll go first!"
Staring at her brother's back, Lilia saw the figure of a lonely man. And her heart was mixed.
He left his hotown just because of his parents' reckless actions. In fact, her brother was a victim of all of these events.
After Daniel left, Lilia took out her cell phone and sent seventy-five million to the gold card that was given to him.
She only hoped that this money would help her brother's life to be better.
If the opportunity arises, she might want to go to Mojokerto to see him.
...
A few minutes later, the man walked downstairs.
He saw Lilia sitting in the living room with a daze while continuing to rub her hand on the surface of what looked like a note.
He walked forward and sat beside her. "Is he gone?"
"He said he's going to Mojokerto. I just rembered that Mojokerto seems to be the old hotown of the Pangestu family!"
She's never been there. She had only heard the na of this place when she was a child.
Ti passed, and Lilia finally cald down. Rembering the past, she passed the note in her hand to Jean. "Look at this. Daniel handed it to earlier.. He said it was a foreign bank account that gave the money to Sylvia."
