Chapter 12 : Reaction (1)"Terry, what does the code written on my necklace mean? Why does your face look so pale?" asked Steve, following Ben's question, in an urgent tone.Terry shook his head. He laughed awkwardly at Steve and Ben while scratching the back of his head, which didn't itch. The laugh sounded so strange to hear, as if it were forced to cover up something."Hahaha, forget what I said before. I was just talking out of my ass." Terry argued and returned the necklace in his hand to Steve's hand.Both Ben and Steve certainly didn't believe what Terry said. Both of them knew that Terry was lying. The uncomfortable body movement with eyes that didn't want to look at the other person was more than enough proof. Ben narrowed his eyes, trying to intimidate his younger brother."Terry, stop lying and tell us both the truth." Ben snapped at Terry until the man's laughter stopped. "Tell the truth, Terry. What's with the necklace code Steve has? What's with the number 0512?" Ben

Chapter 14 : Interrogation (2)"Sir, we have something you requested." The blond-haired man with brown eyes took his eyes off the document he was reading. His eyes spotted two people standing in the doorway. The man seemed to squint his eyes as he felt his vision was unclear. The objects in front of him seemed so blurry and vague. He rubbed his eyes with his hands and refocused his gaze on the people who came into his room."Ah, are you Terry and Ben?""Yes, sir,""Then come in."Ben and Terry entered the light blue room. After entering, Terry did not forget to close the door so that no one could eavesdrop on their confidential conversation."Sit down." The blond-haired man ordered in a stern tone of voice. His eyes looked tired, with dark circles clearly visible on his face, indicating that he lacked rest. The man's appearance looked disheveled, as if he hadn't changed his clothes since morning."I'm sorry, I didn't recognize you before because my vision is not clear.""It's alri

Chapter 16 : DenialBarbara could only chuckle at the words that came out of Icarus' mouth. He clutched his solar plexus and looked at the Brazilian with an intense gaze. "Sir, why are you laughing?" Asked Icarus, who was surprised by his boss's attitude. "Is there something funny about what I said?""Yes, of course there is." Barbara tried to quell the laughter coming out of his mouth. He had to pinch his own cheeks to make it stop. "What you said sounded funny to my ears. There is no way this shabby-looking man is my son, Icarus," Barbara added with a sardonic smile printed on his handsome 60-year-old face. "You better not make jokes like that, Icarus. Because this joke is not funny."Icarus let out a long sigh as he closed his eyes. He tried to patiently give understanding to Barbara, who seemed to not accept the fact that he had just said."Unfortunately, I am not joking, sir." Icarus put on a serious face while standing behind the chair that Terry and Steve were sitting on. H

Chapter 18 : DNA Test (1)The next morning, Ben, Terry, and the protagonist, Steve, were already at the hospital. The two men were sitting in one of the chairs in the hallway, waiting for Aleena and Barbara. Meanwhile, Terry himself chose to stand not far from them.Terry clucked in annoyance while occasionally glancing at the watch on his right hand. His feet kept stepping back and forth with a strong foot stomp. His lips were folded, and his hands were clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white."Where are they?" Terry asked with his eyes closed for a few seconds. His tone of voice sounded both annoyed and irritated. Another harsh sigh came out of his mouth. "Why aren't they here at this hour?"Ben, who was playing online games on his cell phone, was naturally annoyed. Terry's incessant grumbling made his ears ring. His eyes also felt tired as he kept looking at Terry, who was pacing in front of him like an iron. Ben wanted to reprimand his brother for being quiet and sitt

Chapter 20 : Searching for evidence (1)There was a loud knock on the door from outside. Barbara, who was reading a document about cooperation with another company, looked a little distracted. His focus was immediately broken. His deep blue eyes stared at the door standing in front of him with raised eyebrows without saying anything. Barbara took off the glasses that had been perched neatly on his nose, placing them on the table. He also loosened the tie around his neck. After that, Barbara began to speak in a fairly loud tone.“Come in.”The door opened, revealing a man in a black suit that clung to his athletic body. He was about 183 cm tall, with blond hair and amber-colored eyes. But the most striking thing about his appearance was the shoulder-length earrings, like an idol. The long earrings were only on the right side, with black arrow-shaped tips.The man entered the room with wide strides. The sound of his loafers scraping against the floor echoed throughout the room, fillin
