Christian nodded slowly, after which he guided Suri to get into a van that was ready to take them to the airport. As soon as Christian and Suri got into the car, the two bellboys who had been helping to take care of Christian’s and Kainer’s luggage immediately put the suitcases into the car carefully. After the bellboys had done their job, from the reception desk, Kainer ran towards the exit and immediately joined Suri and Christian.
“Everything is safe, Master,” Kainer said excitedly, succeeding in his mission this time to make Kainer so happy.
“Thanks, Kainer,” Christian answered quietly as he squeezed Suri’s slender fingers again gently.
Suri, who understood her brother’s body language, then landed her head on his shoulder, her lips immediately covered with a happy smile. The smile that had disappeared from her face for three years. “Thank you for picking me up, brother. Thank you for looking for me.”

After the plane started to fly away from Auckland, Christian took a deep breath. Feel relieved.
Even though he hasn’t asked what happened to Suri three years ago, Christian knows that Suri was with the person who had detained her for years when he found her at the mall. Seeing from the way Suri covered her mouth and led him to keep running from the crowd made Christian feel very sure of what was on his mind right now.
“Sleep, we still have a long way to go, Suri,” Christian says softly.
Suri who was already sitting in her best position shook her head slowly. “I don’t want to sleep.”
.....
“Why?”
“I’m afraid that this is all just a dream, I’m afraid that if I wake up from my sleep all these beautiful dreams will disappear,” replied Suri hoarsely, unable to hide her fear.
Christian smiles warmly. “You’re not dreaming, Suri. Right now we really are going home soon, to see Mommy and Daddy.”
“You’re not lying, are you?”
Christian’s heart seems to be squeezing right now, even though Suri doesn’t speak but he can read the fear that is still so big inside Suri.
Christian gently squeezes Suri’s hand. “I will never lie to you, Suri.”
“Is that true?”
“Yeah, I’ll always be honest with you.”
Suri immediately pulled her hand from Christian’s grip quickly. “Promise.”
Christian smiled when he saw Suri’s pinky finger which was already in the air, by reviewing Christian’s smile then linking his little finger to Suri’s little finger.
“Promise, I Christian Clarke will always speak the truth to Suri Mireya Clarke no matter what.”
Suri’s eyes filled with tears again, hearing her name being correctly called again made Suri so moved. Realizing that Suri was almost crying, Christian then brought Suri’s hand to his lips and gave it a warm kiss there..
“I’m sorry, sorry it took so long to find you, Suri.”
Suri immediately shook her head. “No, it’s not your fault. It’s not your fault sob...”
Suri, who was too happy, couldn’t finish her words, her voice caught in her throat. Seeing Suri crying, Christian finally grabbed Suri’s body and hugged her tightly, Christian won Suri not to cry by whispering pleasant soft words until Suri finally fell asleep. The deepest sleep that Suri felt after three years of sleeping in anxiety because she had a deep longing for her family.
After making sure that Suri really sleeps, Christian then releases his arms on Suri and lets his sister sleep alone in a chair that has been arranged in such a way that it can be used to sleep two people at once.
“Miss Suri seems to have calmed down already,” Kainer said in a low, half-whispered voice.
Christian smiles. “Yeah, she looks a lot calmer. Three years without seeing Suri looks very different, she looks so beautiful at her mature age.”
“Miss Suri has always been beautiful, sir,” said Kainer quickly. “You’re the only one who often calls Miss Suri ugly.”
Christian chuckles amused as he is reminded of his good past. “I didn’t really say Suri was ugly at the time, I was just teasing her. Seeing her angry was a pleasure for me before Suri finally disappeared.”
“But now Miss Suri has been found again, sir. I don’t think we should discuss this matter any further.”
Christian who was looking at Suri’s peaceful face immediately turned his face to look at Kainer sharply. “What do you mean by not bringing this matter up again, Kainer? I still have to find out who the person that has kept Suri apart from us all these years, how can I stay silent, let the culprit roam free out there while he’s made my sister have lost so much of her precious time during these three years. And not only that, my parents are also filled with deep sadness thinking of Suri who suddenly disappeared without a word.”
Christian’s emotions were provoked by the remark of this totally unexpected performance.
“I know you must be angry and want to make revenge with that person, I also understand how much you want to make the person who stole Miss Suri get revenge. But do you have the heart and are ready to see Miss Suri again, sad when you have to remember the bad events that have happened to her during these three years, young master? Would you like to see Miss Suri again mourn her sorrow?”
The fire that was already burning inside Christian was immediately extinguished, Kainer’s words slapped him sharply.
“I’m pretty sure that if the Miss Suri was so devastated by this incident, she must have been very hurt by what had happened to her, so I feel that if we go back to having to make her remember those sad times, Miss Suri will definitely come back sad and to be honest I’m not ready for see her sad again, young master,” said Kainer sofly. “Our focus right now is on bringing Miss Suri’s spirit back to life, sir.”
Christian clenched his jaw. “Yeah you’re right, right now I have to think about Suri. She must recover from all this trauma.”
“That’s right, sir. We’ll just have to wait for Miss Suri to tell the story, I’m sure sooner or later she will tell us everything.” Kainer spoke again, expressing her opinion to Christian.
“Okay, I will follow your advice. Now call Jorge, ask him to call the family doctor to the house. After we land, Suri immediately gets a thorough examination. I want to know if there is a tracking device on her body or not, we don’t know a psychopath like what has kidnapped Suri all these years.”
Kainer nodded quickly. “Yes sir.”
Kainer then left Christian and Suri to do the task she had just received.
After Kainer leaves, Christian sits down next to Suri again. Christian slowly smoothed the hair that covered Suri’s beautiful face. “You’re safe now, honey. I swear I’ll take care of you even harder from now on, I won’t let anything like this happen again... I’ll wait patiently for you to reveal the identity of that crazy psychopath and if that time comes I’ll make him pay all this crazy thing to you.”

Clarke Enterprise, Luksemburg.
Christian’s trip makes Elena have to work even harder, today she even chose not to eat lunch because she wanted to finish the job faster.
Neither Kainer nor Christian have been contacted at this time, which is a very rare custom. Even though she had only known the two of them for three weeks, Elena could already read the characters of the two well, that’s why Elena couldn’t believe it when she saw that the two people didn’t enter the office without this kind of information.
Gossip began to spread among the female staff who had been adoring their young CEO.
Don’t know who started it, but now rumors that Christian is getting married to the girl of his parents’ choice have spread. Elena, who was just about to go to the cafeteria to buy coffee, finally heard the news. Elana’s steps were immediately stopped when several female staff mentioned how influential the Clarke family was in Geneva.
“I heard that Mr. Jackson Clarke has a special relationship with the government, it’s no wonder that Mr. Christian was set up like this.”
“Yeah you’re right, political marriages are the marriages that most often happen to rich families. They seem to keep their property in the right place if they do such political marriages.”
“I’m curious as to what that lucky girl looks like. She must be very beautiful and comes from a rich family like the Clarkes.”
“For sure she must be prettier than all of us and much smarter than the pretentious new secretary,” said Siena, one of the finance staff curtly.
Several female staff who were talking about Christian immediately turned towards the source of the voice, where Siena and her friends were sitting enjoying their coffee. Siena was one of the staff who received an award from Christian last year for her dedication to the company because so many people know Siena.
“Do you know the secretary, Siena?”
“Me? Of course not, we’re not on the same level. I’m the best on the staff at Clarke Enterprise, a far cry from the secretary who was chosen under such circumstances as that girl. That woman named Elana isn’t that pretty to be the CEO’s secretary.”
“I work to be a secretary not to be a model, Miss....”
