ANOTHER SECRET?

"Where did your husband go, Adelle?"

Kania suddenly asked her eldest daughter when she didn't see Michael around.

"It seems like he has to work, Mom."

The atmosphere in the Aldebaran house turned quiet now. Everyone was thinking about Alexander and his company's situation.

Alexa was seen crying in Alexander's arms, thinking about her husband's wealth that would be seized by the police. Meanwhile, Kania and Aldebaran looked panicked and worried about their second son-in-law's situation.

Kania sat next to Adelle and looked at her daughter gently.

"Adelle, I still love you, just as I love Alexa. Now, listen to me, divorce Michael as soon as possible and marry Kevin who is wealthy, Adelle."

It turned out she was talking about her desire for Adelle to divorce Michael again. It seems she has hope if her eldest daughter is willing to follow her words.

However, Adelle immediately shook her head and firmly rejected her mother's words.

"This is not the time to talk about that, Mom. We have to focus on Alexander's problem instead of discussing my relationship with Michael.

Again, my answer remains the same, Mom. I will never want to divorce or leave Michael."

Upon hearing the answer, Kania looked disappointed. After that, she said another sentence, which aimed to degrade Michael in front of Adelle.

"Wait, that's Michael, right?"

Suddenly, Alexa pointed towards the TV that was on and broadcasting news.

"Mrs. Gracia finally revealed the whereabouts of her grandson. Now, she has appointed her grandson, Rafael Zyailendra, as the sole heir to her wealth. From the news we obtained, it turns out that Mrs. Gracia has prepared her heir for a long time, but she only announced his name now."

Everyone there was immediately surprised after hearing the news brought by the reporter.

Even Aldebaran, Kania, Alexa, and Alexander immediately looked at Adelle after hearing the news.

After that, the screen changed and showed the figures of Gracia and Michael sitting side by side, in front of many journalists and reporters.

In the live broadcast, Gracia and Michael talked to each other about the oil and coal companies they owned. And there, Michael also signed an official heir letter, then showed it to the camera.

"Michael is Rafael Zyailendra, Gracia's grandson?"

Aldebaran asked Adelle that question. With his facial expression still showing surprise.

Meanwhile, Adelle was also thinking the same thing. She didn't expect that her husband, Michael, would appear on television and look completely different now.

"Adelle, what have you and Michael been hiding all this time? Why is Michael there now?" Kania also asked Adelle. She didn't expect that her son-in-law was the sole heir to the largest oil and coal company in the country.

Adelle shook her head, then looked at Kania and Aldebaran's faces in turn.

"I don't know, Mom, Dad. I was also surprised by this news. Michael didn't tell me anything."

Aldebaran looked frustrated with his in-laws' situation. One of his in-laws was in a big problem and the other gave him a huge surprise.

"What is Michael planning, actually? Why does everything look so surprising like this?"

Meanwhile, at Gracia's house, Michael was celebrating his new identity.

"How is the situation at Aldebaran's house? Did you see Alexander crying there?" Gracia handed Michael a glass of wine and asked him that question.

Michael took the drink and sipped it.

"It seems like my father-in-law will ask for his friends' help to manage Alexander's company. I'm sure he will do whatever he can to save his second son-in-law's company."

Gracia nodded her head in understanding after hearing her grandson's answer.

"But I'm sure, no matter how much Aldebaran helps him, Alexander will still lose. Unless he asks for your help, Rafael."

The sentence that Gracia said sounded full of puzzles and it clearly confused Michael.

"What do you mean? Please explain clearly."

"Aldebaran's family must have known about your news now, and I'm sure Aldebaran will suggest that Alexander ask for your help. The news that you are my sole heir, who owns the largest oil and coal company in this country."

"And if what I'm saying is true, you can help Alexander, Rafael. By legalizing his company, then making a deal with the government, using the law."

Gracia explained at length the help that Rafael could give to Alexander to save his company.

"What will I get if I help Alexander? His company is already ruined and his name is on the police blacklist, Grandma."

However, Michael also thought about the state of Alexander's company. A company that is now on the brink of collapse.

"I want him to kneel before you and praise you. All this time, Alexander has been arrogant and often disrespects you. And now, use this opportunity to conquer his arrogance.

If he comes to you for help, negotiate with him. If you can assist him, ask for half of his company's shares and make them yours, Rafael."

Gracia had asked Michael to carry out a new plan: to make Alexander kneel before him.

Michael appeared to consider Gracia's words, then agreed to her suggestion.

"Oh, there's one more secret that I haven't told you."

"Another secret?"

"Yes, a secret about the Aldebaran family. Actually, the property company he runs belongs to Adelle.

Adelle's deceased grandfather was my friend and specifically gave the property company to her. So, all this time, Aldebaran has been running the company under Adelle's name and hiding it from you and your wife."

Michael was truly surprised by the secret revealed by Gracia. Apparently, the company run by his father-in-law belonged to his own wife, Adelle. However, due to Aldebaran's greed, he hid this fact and didn't let Adelle know.

"I never thought that Adelle's father could do such a sneaky thing."

Gracia had known about this for a long time. However, she wanted Michael to know at the right time.

"Aldebaran is that sneaky, even his wife too. So, if you can do it, take Adelle's company from her own father, Rafael."

Michael felt a sense of revenge in his heart now. He would make Alexander kneel before him and take Adelle's company from Aldebaran.

"Okay, I will take everything that should belong to my wife, Grandma."
