Chap 4 Rich Man

In different parts of the world, a country located on the E continent, one of the beautiful landscapes due to the mountains and the amazing ocean. Surrounded by the scenery is an old castle that is elegant, beautiful and has an antique feel that has been passed down through several generations of the castle's family.The large and spacious residence is one of the symbols of wealth owned by the White family, a wealthy businessman family who currently only has a single heir. In this quiet and beautiful place there is a young man who continues to observe the development of incidents that shocked all international media some time ago without stopping and feeling bored with the news. That person is the only heir to the White family, a young Caucasian-Asian descendant named Nathaniel White.

It has been several days since the disturbing news about the theft of precious and rare gemstones happened, Nathaniel has been busy making clippings from reports in all print papers that can be obtained since first appearing in the media. Since he was a kid until he was 27 years old; this beautiful-looking young man, not sociable with anyone but very fond of collecting news about unique events that interest him.

The event that was reported on a large scale some time ago seemed to have attracted a great curiosity inside this young man's heart and made him immediately sink into conducting personal research because of hearing the news that was already widespread. When he had done something like this, Nathaniel would have worried his employees, especially his butler; Alfred, who has taken care of all kinds of needs of the White family members since a long time ago.

Knowing the nature of their master (all servants have hereditary serving the White family), no one dared to disturb his busy life, despite worrying about the health of their master. They are all only able to let it go until the time when their master needs their help in conducting his long and tiring research.

"AHH !! Found it!” Shouted Nathaniel from behind the door of a large workspace in the large White castle.

"Master... What's happening? Why are you screaming so loudly?"

“Ah...Alfred!” Nathaniel exclaimed, looking delighted to see his butler appear before him. "What a coincidence, you came before I called. I want you to do something for me. Something important and urgent!” He continued while removing the stack of paper that covered the surface of the work table.

"What do you want me to do, Master?" Alfred replied, the butler asked further.

"Wait... wait, wait! Let me write down the details of the assignment, so you can do it more easily." While speaking, Nathaniel took a piece of high-quality paper from the drawer of a long, old wooden desk in the room. 

The young man wrote something on it using a slim pen and looked very expensive with White's insignia on the body. With nimbleness, Nathaniel wrote some beautiful writing and was neatly woven on a piece of paper. After writing for a long time he gave the full letter to the butler who had been patiently waiting for instructions from him.

After taking the paper containing the details given to him, the butler immediately read the writing on the paper attentively. When he finished reading a few sentences there, the expression on Alfred's face changed so drastically that he looked at his employer in shock.

"Master... these..."

"Why? Can't you do it?" asked Nathaniel, innocently.

"No, it's not that I can't. But, this won't be easy..."

"Heem-good if you can, I want you to finish it as soon as possible."

Quickly and gracefully, Nathaniel stood up from where he was sitting and walked to the door of the study where the butler had opened. This young man wanted to leave the room where he had confined himself for some time without leaving the place even if only for a moment.

"Master..." Alfred called quietly, making Nathaniel stop and turn to face him with a questioning look on his face. "Where do you want to go?"

Covering his yawning mouth, Nathaniel answered; "I'm sleepy right now, so I want to sleep in my bed. I have only been able to sleep on these benches for a few days."

Nathaniel pointed at a large, comfortable brown work sofa that was matching the size of a long, large table that was a couple. 

"Even though the sofa is big, expensive and quite comfortable, still my body wants a bed that is much more comfortable. So, I don't want you to bother me with any problems, ok? I want you to quickly take care of all the details that I gave you. Without it done, I would not be able to complete the research that I have now collected in a small part. Alright, I want to sleep first now!"

After the departure of his master, Alfred reread the paper containing the details of the assignments given to him. Sighing hard, he said; "This is really going to be hard to do and certainly takes a long time." 

Rereading the details of the assignment written by his employer, the well-built butler said quietly; "Well, I have to try hard because Master Nathaniel certainly doesn't want to hear complaints. He certainly would not accept if I could not fulfill his request, after all, he never gave me work that was impossible to do. It will really be very troublesome!” 

Sighing again, this reliable butler moved with sturdy steps that did not produce any sound due to the smoothness of his movements.
