Wonder Island is an island in the Atlantic Ocean. Small uninhabited island. The island belongs to the Don Pablo family. It was on this island that Nina was raised. The Don Pablo family is a family with fantastic wealth assets. They built this island business empire.

The young Don Pablo was once just a big poor man on an estate owned by a big landowner on Pontianus Island. There he worked in a marijuana plantation.

Pontianus Island is an island with a small population. Only a few family members live on this island. Little Pablo was an orphan brought in by his master. There marijuana is like a regular plant, which is used as one of the nerve tranquilizers or therapeutics. On this island they do not know doctors, except healers or shamans to give birth as healers.

Over time, little Pablo grew up to be a handsome, hardworking teenager. He married Angelo, a girl from a poor family on the island of Pontianus. Pablo, armed only with the courage and intelligence and capital that mediocre results of his hard work as a laborer in the marijuana field owned by Mr. Carmenito, he went sailing south to the Atlantic Ocean. There a simple wooden boat made with his own hands stranded on an uninhabited island. Wonder Island is what he called it. There his wife, Angelo, gave birth to a beautiful baby girl, who was none other than Nina.

There Pablo had to survive with all his abilities for the sake of his family. Young Pablo tried his luck first with Morphine. He knew this substance when he helped the healers concoct medicine for people in Pontianus who were stricken with the disease.

Looking around Wonder Island, young Pablo found many plants Papaver Somniverum or commonly known as opium. This is what makes young Pablo began to mix with the skills and abilities of chemistry pasasasan he had into a substance Morphine which he then circulated to the Pontianus area and slowly to several countries around Wonder Island, where he was born, slowly over time, young Pablo could eventually become a Morphine supplier in all countries of the world.

A very hard life made young Pablo live independently, persistently, and hard work. He began his career by doing everything himself. Until he succeeded as he is today, he has become a "Don".

Not only among pharmacies legally, Morphine that he had also circulated in the dark in the black world. A world where small drug dealers and drug dealers know the name Don Pablo.

Don Pablo is not only a businessman in the Morphine class, he is also a supplier of liquor from beer, wine, to Fenucaria, which is a liquor that is usually formulated at home by the people of Pontianus, little Pablo was no exception at the time. Fenucaria drink is a drink derived from fruits and vegetables that are fermented to change shape into an alcoholic drink. They used to drink it when the cold wind arrived to warm the body.

Young Pablo was finally successful and earned the title "Don" just when he was 30 years old. The title he got because of his greatness in building a business that he played.

Little Nina who grew up estranged on Wonder Island felt the results of her father's success into a girl who is strong, smart, and always filled with all her wishes. By the time she turned 12, little Nina was celebrating her birthday with her father and mother in Italy. He was in a luxurious hotel room with his mother. His father, who was out of the hotel, met his business partner. Until a hotel bellboy pressed the bell button in front of his room door and brought a package containing a tart cake intended for him. Little Nina was so happy to receive it. He thought his father had sent the parcel. Until without any suspicion, he celebrated his birthday in a hotel room with his mother to enjoy the delivery of the tart. Lucky as well as misfortune for Nina at once. When the first piece of cake was given to his mother and she bit him, without taking long, his mother fell. Nina, who was not expecting at the time, spontaneously she pulled the cake in her own hands and the rest of the pieces of cake held by her mother. Nina even tried to pull out the cake in her mouth. Honey, little Nina is late. The poison had reacted through the saliva the mother swallowed and had flowed throughout her body. In just a matter of seconds Angelo, Nina's little biological mother died right then and there.

The hysterical little Nina saw firsthand the death of her biological mother was experiencing acute traumatic syndrome. She grows up to be a girl who is always vigilant and suspicious of the outside world. Especially when he slowly began to know the business empire built by his father, Don Pablo, is a world that has many friends but not a few business opponents, especially those from the dark world, very thirsty for the wealth and reputation possessed by the father.

Nina loves her father very much. Especially after the death of her mother, Miss Angelo. His father was the only one he had in his life. And Don Pablo, after the death of the woman he loved so much, the only woman who was always by his side from being just a poor man to being a Don, Angelo was a loyal and loving woman to him. Since his departure, Nina to Don Pablo is the most beautiful gift his wife has ever given him and his only legacy. This is what makes Don Pablo so pamper Nina and be much more protective of his favorite girl. He did not want to lose the woman he loved.

Little Nina grew up in her house that resembles a magnificent castle for her with very strict guard and several bodyguards hired by her father. He never once left the house. Don Pablo always facilitated whatever he wanted in his magnificent castle. Even Nina spent her teenage years with a private teacher who had undergone a selection process by Don Pablo himself with the help of Carlo, her father's confidant.

Carlo for Nina was like a sister. He who trained Nina became a strong person. Carlo taught Nina to shoot and shoot. It was even Carlo who taught him various martial arts for Nina as self-protection in case she was in a strange situation.

"Carlo, where's my dad ?" asked Nina who was still wearing her burgundy wig with Lucy's face standing before Carlo.

"He's in his office. You change your clothes first. It's not worth dressing like that in front of your father." Said Carlo in a firm tone to her. Carlo was everything to Nina. He was a teacher, brother, bodyguard, friend and everything to Nina. Only he and his father had Nina since her mother's death.

"Oh...Carlo darling.Do not be too rigid with me.but, thank you for your advice.." replied Nina while kissing Carlo's cheek spontaneously and just passed towards his room. He always obeyed Carlo's advice because he knew Carlo who understood his father's nature. He also changed clothes at home.

Carlo was already used to Nina's attitude. But not at the moment. As she grew into a beautiful girl in front of him. For Carlo this was more than enough for the love he had in his heart for this girl. He smiled flatly but his heart was blossoming.

"Papa, you're still busy struggling with your work ? relax a little papa.enjoy your hard work." said Nina while embracing her father's neck and kissed his cheek. Don Pablo was very pampering for Nina. He is the only descendant of his beloved wife, Angelo. The woman who had married him and was willing to build his household life since he was still a poor man to billionaires with the title Don.

"Nina.you know.dad's job is full of risks.dad should always supervise and make sure everything runs smoothly...How's your show outside ? Is there a problem, baby ?" his father replied in a loud voice.

"No Daddy.everything is good. You know Daddy.after watching the movie...I remembered you.and I don't know how's my life without you.you are my everything...I love you so much, Daddy.." Nina said back to her father. His father smiled at the words of his only daughter.

"I love you, too sweet heart." replied his father briefly.

"Daddy, you should call Carlo to help your work.. Just give the task that must be done to Carlo, Daddy.take a few days to relax your mind" said Nina reminded her father.

"I know sweetheart...Carlo is indeed the father gave the task but not fully run this business." replied his father while looking at Nina who was in front of him.

"That's what Nina meant by dad...Carlo is like a family member to us. He also loved Dad very much. Just give it to Carlo...I don't think he's gonna betray you, Dad...Sometimes you need to take the time to relax...Look at the wrinkles on your forehead and the gray hair that has filled your hair.it might be time for me to learn to give your full trust in Carlo.." Nina said with her sweet knot smile.

Nina is a smart girl. He used to see a lot of people in his father's work environment. They are used to judging their character. According to him Carlo is the only person who could not have betrayed his father.Don Pablo actually agreed with his son's opinion. Nina was right in some ways. For him he was like a replacement for Angelo, his wife who always gave advice and advice to him.

Without them noticing, Carlo, who was passing by and standing in front of Don Pablo's study, overheard the conversation. His heart was growing more and more flowery listening to him. Knowing the girl he loved put so much trust in him.
