Bryan’s words puzzled Ronald, as he couldn't understand what was making Bryan to be excited about a normal day, "What’s so special about tomorrow?" Ronald asked out of curiosity to know the reason.

"It’s my parents' wedding anniversary," Bryan replied with a faint smile on his face, Ronald finally remembered the deal Bryan had made with Mr. Felix, "So, you're still planning to send that guy to your parents' anniversary party?"

Bryan nodded with a smirk on his face, "As an unworthy son to those wonderful parents', I should at least give them a suitable gift, right?"

"Think twice before you go through with this plan," Ronald cautioned Bryan out of fear, "If that guy messes up and the truth about you sending him intentionally gets out, your parents will hate you even more, are you sure about taking such a risk?"

"Did they ever love me to fear now for hatred from them?" Bryan said with a painful smile expressing the pain he is going through deep within him while speaking those words, "To

    Josephine was the first one to react to that statement, "What do you mean by that?" she asked being frustrated by the insulting statement regarding Jake.Mrs. Weasley responded to Josephine's reaction, "I think the statement is true, Mrs. Winterwood, three of your daughters are brilliant, and your son Bryan is a genius, excelling in everything. However, the son you adopted, Jake, isn't even in a beginner level to compete with any of them."Mr. Dylan also joined the conversation, "Exactly, my youngest son is Jake's classmate, and I heard he even failed his exams, there are many rumours that every teacher complains regarding his academic results, the difference is quite obvious in between the real son and adopted son."Mr. Shervian agreed with both of them, "I'm sure if he were my real nephew, he would be as bright and brilliant just like my brother, but he's just an adopted son brought home by my sister-in-law, how can he replace my nephew? Not even in his dreams he can be like my neph

Mr. Louis sneered, "No one here can see that in your wife's uninterested behavior towards him, I don't think anyone would disagree with me, am I wrong?"Neil sighed, realizing the conversation was taking a bad turn and making people to get into their own conclusions, "My wife is just upset with our son for not attending the party, you should understand a mother's pain at missing her son.""Is that so?" Mr. Shervian asked while raising his eyebrows, "Why doesn't it seem that way, brother? It looks like my sister-in-law loves Jake more than Bryan, Are you sure she's just concerned? Or are you misunderstanding things too?"Neil shook his head as their assumptions creating a huge headache for him, "I don't understand why you're also talking like this, Sherv

    Mr. Wilson's words took Neil by surprise, leaving him confused and lost in thinking for a way to convince him, just as Neil was growing more anxious and nervous, Mr. Wilson suggested with a smile, "Let's discuss this further when Bryan is here."For a moment, Neil felt his heart would stop working out of tension, though he was somewhat relieved it wasn't as bad as he was scared since Mr. Wilson has a smile on his face rather than a furious expression.Mrs. Wilson came forward speaking while holding her husband's hand, "We know you love Bryan a lot and trying to keep him out of the spotlight to protect him from danger, people often don't understand a parent's heart unless they're in our position, as a doting parents to our daughter, we understand your affection for your son, even if others misunderstand it, so please don't take their words to your heart.""Exactly," Neil said, finally took a breath in relief, since nothing happened as he was scared of and everything was well and fine a

Still, he didn't want to reveal anything until he was sure, so he decided to play innocent unless Stacy reveal regarding, what she truly desires to know, "What do you mean by 'purpose,' my lady?" He asked glancing at Stacy."It's exactly what I asked," Stacy replied, with a smile, "What brought you to attend this party?"Felix responded just as the plan he stick to before coming to the party, "Your parents are well-known to me, and I'm one of their well wishers, my lady, moreover as the principal who noticed your brother from closer, I wanted to meet them in person."Stacy crossed her arms questioning him further, "So, you came all the way here because of my brother?"

    Mia's words momentarily stopped Stacy from moving forward, making her focus entirely on Mia and her words, "What do you mean by suspect? What should I suspect?" Stacy asked raising her eyebrow trying to know more about what Mia is talking about."Ever since that guy left, nothing has gone right," Mia said with a frown, "Dad raised his voice at Jake for the first time, Mom and Dad argued which we didn't notice before, the only time I've seen our parents is when they lost that guy years back, and the parties in our home, which were never ruined and always magnificent, was a disaster today, directly or indirectly, our family got humiliated infront of everyone. Does any of this seem natural to you?"Stacy sighed at Mia's words, "First of all, that guy has a name, it's Bryan, whether you accept it or not, he's our younger brother, now, if things seem unnatural, do you want to blame him for everything?""No, that's not what I mean," Mia tried to explain, but Stacy cut her off before she wou

Alicia demanded, her authority as the head of the house can't be ignored, Josephine, obliged to answer, so gave her response, "He is the son of someone to whom we owe a lot but forgot to repay."Neil, who overheard everything Josephine spoke stepped forward inquiring her with a hopeful look, "Son of Benjamin?" Josephine nodded with a faint smile, "Yes, he died saving you, and his wife became emotionally unstable and went overseas by hiding the truth of her pregnancy from everyone, then I found out through a common friend that he was abandoned by her relatives after she died, I couldn’t leave him just like everyone, so I brought him home."Neil looked at Jake sympathetically, holding him in his arms without further questions, knowing he was the son of h

Bryan felt inwardly, but not wasting anytime, he left the room, and as he was on his way to leave the floor, he was caught by Jake.Without letting him to notice, Bryan hid the piece in his pocket, Jake frowned, "what are you doing here?" "Why should I answer to you?" Bryan crossed his arms, clenching his fist, Jake sighed, "Bryan, don't push your luck too much." Just then Mia who heard the commotion came there, "What's happening here?""Sister," Jake rushed to Mia, but Mia, ignoring Jake went to Bryan, "What happened?"Bryan shrugged his shoulders, "nothing, I was casually walking here, he came and started this commotion." "Jake, aren't you supposed to be in your room? What are you doing here?" Mia sighed, making Jake to shout at her, "Why are you believing him instead of me? You should believe in me, not him."

    "Grandma?" Bryan said with a small smile getting up from the chair, "I’m just going through these, nothing important, why are you here anyway grandma? Do you want anything?" "No dear," Alicia tilted her head slightly, her eyes twinkling with affection, as she looked at Bryan who resembles her late husband, "You’re just like your grandfather, always diving into work. Too much, if you ask me, unlike your father, who is so lazy to work." Bryan chuckled softly, "Working keeps me focused grandma! I don't like being lazy." "I can understand," she walked over close to him and looked around only to the find many records on the table, "You must've been so busy while looking into these, aren't you?" Bryan scratched his head with a forced smile, "Well, you can say that grandma!" "My dear, you shouldn't push yourself more than necessary," Alicia's expression turned serious for a moment. "I don’t know what’s been happening in this house lately, Bryan, but all I want is for you to stay safe,

    SOMETHING CONSPIRACY

    "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?" With a curiosity, he

    "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

    "Mother," Josephine spoke in a low tone, "you know whatever I do, it is for this family, I've been in this house for so long serving as his wife and your daughter-in-law, I built the reputation of this family along with my husband, how can you say this to me when I was also a part of the glory now winterwood family enjoying?"Alicia snapped at her, "glory? 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. "I advise you to stay out

    "So, are you pitying me?" 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."
