In the end, Lucia didn't care about her parents and Kyung Joon's anger. She walked out into the living room carrying two suitcases, followed by Bertha from behind.
At that time, it was dark but Kyung Joon still hadn't come home. His heart was filled with extreme anger, as well as mounting curiosity towards Lucia.
Slowly, Lucia approached them without the slightest fear, she was so sure that the decision she made was the right one. Staying away from her family and boss for a while, so that there would be no more misunderstandings between them, even though Kyung Joon would never understand Lucia's real reason.
Lucia and Bertha then approached Ronald and Vanya, where they were having a conversation with Kyung Joon.
"Mom, Dad ... forgive me for disturbing Mom and Dad's meeting with Mr. Kyung Joon. Tonight, I will stay at the hotel to calm my heart and mind. I hope you will allow me this time," said Lucia firmly.
Then, her father turned towards Lucia with a sharp gaze. Likewise Kyung Joon, his face immediately turned more angry than before.
"Luci! How dare you leave the house, while everyone is talking about important matters and your relationship with Mr. Kyung Joon! You can't just run away from everything!" rebuked Ronald, glaring at Luci.
"Yes, that's right Lucia Weng. You are my future wife, you should stay in your house and reflect on everything you have done to me! Instead of running away to a hotel!" Kyung Joon was furious, his face was as red as fire.
"Hmm ... didn't I say before that I was going on vacation to Greece?! What's wrong if I stay in a hotel for a while until I go there??! I just want freedom, not being forced like that!" Luci's gaze is full of hatred towards her boss.
"I know, it's all just an excuse that comes out of the lips of a woman like you! From the first time we met, your words were so sweet and deceiving! Your appearance, your face, caught my attention that I fell in love with you in an instant, but now what happen? I got from our relationship at that time?!" asked Kyung Joon emotionally.
"Honestly, I never really loved you, Sir! I was forced to marry you because of what Fela, Trina and my own family always tell me to get married! Now, what do you want from me?!" Luci asked back, she was barely able to control himself.
"I made it clear that I only want to marry you, not another woman! You have to stay at home and you can't go anywhere!" Kyung Joon insisted.
"Oh, of course not, Sir. You can't force your will on me because you're not my lover, understand?!" Luci snapped, she was so brave.
"What Mr. Kyung Joon said earlier is true, Lucia! I I I will not allow you to go anywhere, whether to a hotel or on vacation to Greece! If you dare to leave this house, I will think you are no longer there and remember, We will also cross your name from the Wiraatmadja family list!" threatened Ronald.
"It's up to you Dad, I don't care about that name. I don't want to be an unfilial daughter, but matters of heart and love can't just be forced. Especially, when you marry someone who is already married, you never knows, right?" Lucia tried to convince her father that her dream about Kyung Joon a few days ago was true.
"Nonsense! Don't you dare say that if I already have a wife, on what basis do you say that?!" asked Kyung Joon as he stood up, his right hand ready to slap Lucia's sweet face.
"I don't have proof that you already have a wife, but my dream at that time was very real. Sooner or later, we will all find out your true identity! Have you been married before in Korea, and you want to marry me as a mistress? Right?? Just wait, everything that's been kept tightly under wraps, will be revealed in due time! Excuse me, Mr. Kyung Joon!" Lucia challenged Kyung Joon, her gaze razor sharp.
Without waiting for them to stop Lucia from temporarily leaving her house, she immediately ran with one suitcase, while Bertha brought Lucia's other one.
I am sorry, Dad, Mom. I had to do this because I didn't want to be restrained by you. Lucia thought, her heart was very sad.
"Luci, wait! You don't go, Lucia!" Her mother shouted.
"Vanya! Let Luci go, you don't stop the child! If she wants to go and vacation in Greece, fine! But I will never consider her as our daughter again, remember that!" said Ronald to his wife.
Vanya turned to Ronald, looked at him then slowly tears came out of Vanya's beautiful eyes. A respected woman of German-Chinese descent, she did not expect that things would turn out like this. Another girl left the house, because she refused to marry a man she never loved.
Several years ago, Lucia's second sister, Irene, also left the house due to an arranged marriage she didn't want at all. Only Steve and Arnold were still part of the Wiraatmadja family.
"Bertha, get out of here quickly. I'm sick of everything going on in this house," Lucia said.
Bertha nodded, then she immediately opened the trunk of the car and they together put two suitcases into the trunk.
