"Are you okay, Prince?" Mirabel asked as she approached Bryan, who was standing on the balcony, gazing up at the night sky with an unknown sadness within him.Bryan smiled at her as soon as he saw her coming to him, "Yeah, I’m fine. Why aren’t you asleep yet?" He gently brushed a strand of hair from her face, "didn't you get sleep because of this place being new to you?" Mirabel stood beside him enjoying the gentle breeze and beauty of the night, " there's nothing like a new or unfamiliar place, I wasn't able to sleep normally, so I came looking for you thinking you would be there to talk with me until I fall asleep."After dinner, Arthur had left saying it's getting late and his aunt might be worried about him, coming to Ronald, being tired, he had fallen asleep on the couch itself. Mirabel had been given a room to rest in since it's already late and he can't take her to the dorm back, though she initially went to the room to sleep, still she couldn't shake the concern she'd felt du

"She hasn't done anything," Bryan mumbled, clearly worried about her as he continued dialling her number again and again, "Her phone's been off for the last two days, no replies to my messages or emails, at first I thought she is busy but being off for two days, I don't feel good, do you think she's really okay?"Ronald smiled at Bryan's concern for his sister despite him acting cold towards her. "You act like you don't care about her and always complain that she annoys you, but look at you now, worried just because she hasn't talked to you just for two days, what exactly am I supposed to call this concern?" Bryan sighed at Ronald's lecture at times like this when he is worried. "That's not the point here Ron." "Then what's the point? Unless you say I'll not understand anything right?" Ronald asked staring at Bryan for his answer, while Bryan took a deep breath before he could start speaking, "She hasn't even gone to work for the last two days, and her phone's off. She doesn't have

Bryan grabbed Josephine's hand before it could reach his cheek, "I dare you," he provoked her openly and his behavior caught Josephine off guard. She looked at him, being shocked as she couldn't believe he is the same child who once scared to even look into her eyes shivering in fear though he craved for her love all the time but now without any traces of fear he is standing against her, he pushed her hand aside rashly before she could realise what's happening. "Do you think I'll just stand by if you try to slap me?" Bryan challenged her with a mocking tone, "Let me remind you once again I'm not the same Bryan you knew before, I won’t let anyone harm me anymore, not even you, my so-called mother."The room fell silent in disbelief, everyone stunned by Bryan's boldness, except for Ronald, who was already familiar with this side of him. The others who knew Bryan as a docile and obedient child can't help but to be startled by his sudden change in his behaviour as if he is possessed by s

"You called me sister. I never thought this day would come, right?" Stacy smiled giving her answer, while Bryan rolled his eyes at her foolish answer after going through such torture, and Stacy chuckled after looking at his expression. "Well, I'm half-serious, half-joking. But this whole situation showed how much you care about me and it made clear to you regarding how unfair, things are in this house. Even Mia and Nancy realised too. All these might help you."Bryan closed his eyes, trying to get some sleep not paying attention to her words. "I didn't want any of this. I just wanted to help you, and I did, I don't need anyone's support or sympathy since I didn't expect anything for helping you." Stacy responded gently turning to face Bryan, "I know you don't need it, but you also learned that you're not the only one who has been treated badly, right?"Bryan expressed how he was surprised when he got to know about that. "I never imagined you three went through the same thing. I alway

"Nothing," Bryan tried to hide, but Stacy cut him off with a sigh. "Bryan, I heard everything clearly, so stop trying to hide it from me," she said, wincing as she walked. Bryan gently took her hand and guided her to the couch, helping her sit down. "Just look at what happened to you because of taking my side. Are you sure you want to keep going through this by being involved with me?" he asked being baffled by her stubbornness to take his side.Stacy nodded firmly not at all worrying about the consequences. "Not just once, but as many times as it takes. I'm not going to leave you alone my dear little brother," she replied with a bright smile. Seeing how determined she was, Bryan gave in and told her everything. Stacy frowned expressing her thoughts. "It sounds like they’re planning something, just like you suspected. If not, Mom would definitely be worried.""Worried?" Ronald mumbled being confused, Stacy explained the things that were going on in her mind, "Dad is on Bryan’s side ri
