"Three days passed like three hours, isn't it?" Stacy mentioned with Ronald about the days how quickly passed.

Ronald nodded agreeing with her, "before we aren't much experienced in staying at hospital but after spending few times in the hospital for Mira, it became routine for both of us, so days felt literally like hours," Stacy chuckled at his words, but her eyes shifting to Bryan, who was sleeping peacefully on Nancy's lap on the couch.

"I never imagined there'll be a day I'll be having a bond with him like this. When I decided to create a bond with him, I never thought we would come this far," Stacy smiled softly remembering how stubborn and defensive Bryan used to be in the beginning. "Look at him now, sleeping on her lap, as if nothing ever happened, even though we hurt him so badly to the extent of him leaving the house by cutting off all the ties with us."

Ronald sighed pointing out the things he noticed in Bryan. "He’s actually too naive. He doesn’t hold grudges for long,

    "A new CEO? Are you kidding? Why do we even need a new CEO when I'm perfectly fine?" Neil shouted, with extreme anger in his voice after hearing to Calix's words.His words were stopped in the middle by a sudden cough, and Stacy rushed to hand him a glass of water, "dad, please calm down, it's not good for you to be serious like this in a situation." "Mr. Calix, I think it's better if you take leave now," Nancy said in a stern tone wanting him to leave so that her father can take rest with peace rather than getting hyper or excited.After taking a sip of water, Neil signalled to let Calix to stay, "let him, no need for him to leave, I need to speak with him," his voice was calmer than before, "I don’t think it’s necessary to appoint a new CEO, I'm perfectly fine, I'll resume my duties soon." "Sir, actually it’s not my decision," Calix clearly looked nervous as he gave a reply while wiping his sweat, "This is the decision taken by the board, and they sent me here to inform you." "Ev

    "Yeah, everyone heard it well, I'm suggesting about you only," Bryan said while looking at Nancy confirming that he spoke with a right mind but not brought a random name.Bryan's suggestion was like a bombshell, leaving the room in extreme silence and confusion. Nancy and Stacy both stared at him with a clueless face, no matter how hard they tried to think, they couldn't understand what exactly Bryan was trying to do.However, Nancy broke the silence by saying, "Me? But Bryan, I’ve never been involved in the company, I don't have any experience about the company and the dealings of our company like Dad, how can you suggest me?" Stacy also nodded her head agreeing with Nancy. "Yeah, Bryan, Nancy was totally busy with her own things, she never showed any interest in such things." Bryan knew both of them are scared, and as far as Bryan remembered in his previous life, Nancy has a degree in business administration but she hid it from everyone saying she is interested in acting, and conc

    "Of course I'm sure," Bryan said with extreme confidence in his words, "if you can't believe in me, wait and watch, everything will come in to the screen in a few minutes." His words truly made them confused, as they can't figure out why Josephine who didn't contact them till now would call them out of a sudden, but after seeing Bryan’s confidence, they decided to wait just as he said.Meanwhile, Calix, who had just left the hospital, quickly made a call to Josephine in order to inform everything that happened in the hospital room. Coming to Josephine, she has been already waiting in her room for this call, as she perfectly managed her family and other board members to keep pressure on Neil to get everything, as this is the perfect chance she is waiting for so long."Finally you called, I've been waiting for your call, did Neil finally agreed with the board members decision? Did he agree to appoint a new CEO?" Josephine asked as soon as she answered the call, with full of anticipati

    "It's not like you don't know what she'll be saying," Bryan smiled teasing Stacy, while she sighed, "Bryan, you're seriously holding grudges against me, don't you?" Bryan laughed leaning back against the couch, with his arms crossed, "fine, don't answer her call, by not answering her call, do you think you can escape?" "No," Stacy shook her head with a frown, Bryan chuckled, "she’ll keep calling until you answer, there's no way she'll give up, who knows, she might even show up here if you don't pick up two more times, do you want it to happen?" Stacy shivered at the thought of facing Josephine in a situation like this, as Stacy is well aware about her mother's anger, since everything went out of her plans, there's no way Josephine would show any kind of mercy at her."Don’t even joke about that, Bryan, I'm seriously scared already," just as she was speaking about her fear, mobile buzzed once again with Josephine's call, Bryan signalled to lift it, "she is more stubborn than you."

    "Stop daydreaming, if you keep on walking without thinking, you'll get hit to the wall and there'll be a bump in your head, then none will think of dating you," Bryan teased her with his hand placed in between the wall and Stacy's head, as Stacy's head was about to be bumped into wall.Stacy laughed awkwardly pulling Bryan's hand down, "thank you." "Are you daydreaming about a man?" Bryan narrowed his eyes looking into Stacy's face, she simply rolled her eyes in response but couldn't help smiling, "no man nothing." Bryan chuckled, "if so are you interested in women?" Stacy sighed at his fun making nature all the time, "this guy and his jokes." Finally after completing all the check-ups and completing the entire procedures, along with meet ups with doctors, they made their way to home.Alicia and Mia greeted them warmly, happiness lighting up their faces, "finally you're home, come inside...come," Alicia said with a great happiness in her heart looking at her son returning home safe

    "Yeah, a small research on rebirth and reincarnation," Stacy said with a smile, making Bryan to frown, "which idiot would do research on something like that? Are you crazy or what?" Stacy, unaware of his inner turmoil of emotions, shrugged her shoulders casually looking at him, "I just got curious while reading a book. You might've also heard these stories about people getting a second chance at life. I wondered if there was more to it than just myths and legends," she noticed the expression of Bryan changing differently, "Why are you being hyper? And why are you getting so freaked out? It’s just some harmless research, it's not like I'm killing people to do research." Bryan forced a smile, trying to shake off his nervous reaction while calming himself down, "I'm not freaking out, in things like this no one is interested, I'm just confused that you're being involved in research something like that which is totally unrelated to you or your study, that's it." "Well, you never know wh

    "It has to be dangerous," Josephine said in a cold tone, with narrowed eyes as she glanced at the maid who was literally shivering in fear. "Only then my plan will succeed, the more dangerous it is, the more success I get in my plan." The maid nodded, visibly scared by Josephine's sinister tone but too nervous as she can't decline, because Josephine wouldn't hesitate to kill her if she dares to get against with Josephine.The next morning, the kitchen was busy with cooking activities being extremely lively. Bryan was busy preparing lunch after a peaceful breakfast, while Mia teased him and filmed everyone in the camera, "Bryan, you look like a professional chef, why don't you go into a cooking show?" "Rather than helping us you're recording a video, why don't you become a cameraman?" Bryan teased back, and Mia threw a tomato on him, "crazy guy!" Stacy and Nancy were helping him, and the playful banter between the siblings filled the air with laughter, as they are so busy with teas

    "Mom what are you trying to say now?" Nancy asked staring at her mother with a confused expression as she couldn't understand why her mother was blaming Bryan at this moment. Josephine took a deep breath and replied carefully before losing her consciousness, "It’s poison. Call the police, he tried to poison me," even at that moment, she is pointing at Bryan as a culprit.Stacy sighed not understanding her mother's move. "Call the doctor first and get the nurse here immediately." Mia quickly nodded, and rushed to bring the nurse, while John made a call to the doctor calling him immediately to come.Meanwhile, a maid loyal to Josephine secretly dialed the police from an unknown number and reported the situation, just as Josephine had ordered her previous night.Mia returned with the nurse, who hurried to Josephine’s side.

    "Why is this mystery never ending?" Bryan sat in his study, surrounded by stacks of old documents and family records. Unaware of what Josephine is plotting behind his back, he is so busy in getting the truth that was buried in the past.The faint glow of the desk lamp made him feel uneasy to stare at the papers, however he is so busy and involved in flipping the pages.He had been checking through the Winterwood archives for hours, determined to find any trace of evidence to support his suspicions regarding the mysteries.As he reached the bottom of an old wooden chest, a red envelope caught his attention.The paper looked too old, the edges were torn, and the handwriting on the front unmistakably belonged to his late grandfather, Edward Winterwood, "grandfather? This handwriting is similiar to grandfather's, I still remember the handwriting of grandfather from my previous life while helping my father, if so why is grandfather's handwritten paper is here?"

    "Sure, I can," Stacy said and took the file, as she checked the details, apart from very minimalistic nothing else found, "Bryan, if you don't mind, can I ask who is this man? If you don't want to say it's okay." Bryan took a deep breath and said the conversation he had before with officer Hobbes."What the!" Stacy was beyond surprised, "how can this be?" Bryan replied, "I don't know either, but the maid is already dead too, I don't believe our mom is doing all the things alone, I'm sure someone must be helping her," Stacy looked curious, "so, did you figure out anything more about these things?" Bryan sighed, leaning back to the bedframe, "Not yet, but I have a feeling this man from mom's past holds the key to everything. If I can figure out who he is, I might be able to predict her next move, until then I'm not sure of anything because things are different from my previous life at this moment, so I can't take a blind step believing in intuition." Stacy frowned in deep thought. "

    "These are the files you're supposed to look at and take care of," Josephine sat at her desk in the office, glaring daggers as everyone who was looking down on her, whereas Nancy, had been firm but fair in her leadership. To Josephine, it felt like a constant reminder of her fall from grace. Once the madam of the Winterwood household, but she was now reduced to a subordinate, a reality she bitterly hatred.Just then, her phone buzzed on the desk. It was a text from Bryan, "I think you love your new life, Mrs. Winterwood." Josephine slammed her phone down, with an angry look, "The audacity of that bastard to treat me this way! I don't know what got into him out of a sudden, all these years, I've tamed him perfectly, but he became a fox out of a sudden pulling strings to annoy me." When Nancy walked into the room, holding another set of reports, Josephine couldn’t contain her anger."Just because your father made you a CEO, do you think you're superior to me?" she hissed, with a ton

You brought nothing but shame, don't forget how you became the daughter-in-law of this family, from that day till now, there's nothing but humiliation and insults surrounding this family." Josephine opened her mouth to respond, but before she could, Bryan finally stepped forward, "Grandma, right now, I don't think it's important for us to discuss the past." Everyone turned to him, with a curious and surprised expression trying to know what he is trying to do, as they're not sure why Bryan is helping Josephine who treats him nothing but as an enemy."Bryan, this is none of your concern," Neil said sharply.

Bryan asked making Ronald to smile, "not once but thrice, because you'll be one's husband and forever brother to two sisters, I think sister Stacy is also one of them, so not even thrice but four times I pity on you." Bryan rolled his eyes, Mia who glanced at Ronald and Bryan speaking to eachother just frowned, when Ronald looked at her, she immediately turned her face away."Why is she angry with you?" Bryan who observed the fierce reaction of Mia, asked Ronald, but he just lied, "I don't know." At the sametime, Stacy came with a smile, "everything is done, we can go home now." Bryan held Mirabel's hand, "I want to take you home, but this isn't the right time Mira, so...." "Come on prince, did I ever blame you for anything?" Mirabel gently hugged him, "I'll go back to dorm, don't forget to give a call when you reach home."

    'If you ever tarnish this family’s name again," Mr. Wilson continued, with a cold voice, "I will cut you off entirely from this family, no more money, no more support, no more anything. You’ll be on your own, do you understand me?"Tracy nodded slowly, her lower lip trembling. "I understand," she whispered .Her mother folded her arms, her expression still harsh but slightly softened, as after all Tracy is their only daughter whom they loved and cherished a lot."Good, and as for the Winterwoods, we’ll be distancing ourselves from them for a while. After what you’ve done, I don’t want to see or hear their name in this house," those words from her mother left Tracy to be heartbroken.Tracy’s head shot up, panic flashing in her eyes. "No, please! Don’t do that! I—I’ll fix this! I’ll apologize to Bryan, to everyone, and I'm sure Bryan will believe in me, he'll forgive me, I'm the only friend he had, so give me a chance to apologize to Bryan."

    The tension in the Wilson household was quite evident, the air thick with anger and disappointment. Tracy sat on the velvet couch in the grand living room, her head bowed, tears streaming down her face. Her parents stood nearby, their expressions a mix of fury and humiliation. The scenes of the disgraceful behaviour of Tracy at the Winterwood party were still fresh in their minds."Do you have any idea what you’ve done, Tracy?" Mr. Wilson, roared, his voice resounding through the room. "You’ve humiliated not only yourself but this entire family! Thanks to you, I can't raise my head and go out in public anymore." Tracy flinched, her hands gripping the edges of her dress tightly. "I didn’t mean to," she began, with a shaking voice, as she isn't sure how things changed from what she originally planned, she wanted to drug Bryan and force him into a relationship with her, but things changed in a different way leaving her as a laughing stock in front of everyone."Didn’t mean to?"

    "This is so exhausting, I don't prefer any kind of parties, from now onwards," Nancy said stretching her arms, looking at the guests leaving.Bryan smiled at her, "I thought you're the one who enjoyed it mostly," Nancy glanced at Bryan, ruffling his hair, "I did just as you said, nothing as enjoyment is here, what about you, did you enjoy the party?""I'm totally blown out, my head is heating up," Bryan said, making her chuckle, as all the guests left, Bryan said to John, "Mr. John, I'm tired, can you manage all these, I'll go to my room to get some rest." John nodded his head, "sure young master." With that, all of them returned to their rooms, Bryan closed the door and collapsed on the bed with a sigh.The night was eerily quiet within the Winterwood estate. Bryan laying on the bed, with his thoughts consumed by his earlier conversation with Mr. Hobbes. The revelation about Josephine and her past truly thrilled him, yet his determination to uncover the truth burned brighter than
