"What?" Stacy exclaimed, surprised by his words, for a minute she didn't even notice her loud voice, hearing her voice, Bryan and Ronald turned around to see her, understanding her louder voice, she smiled at them assuring, "I'm okay, you guys go on, I'll catch up with you both."

Bryan and Ronald nodded as they walked inside trying not to bother her more, noticing that they left Stacy sighed and continued her phone conversation with a frown, "Do you even know what you're trying to say, Leveron? I asked you to find out an important matter while you're speaking foolishly and wasting my time, is this what your agency found out? While all of us know about Jake's birth parents, now you're telling me that Jake isn't uncle Benjamin's son, do you want me to believe in it?"

"I'm telling the truth, madam, I've thoroughly investigated it twice with the same doubt as yours, young master Jake isn't Mr. Benjamin's son, I don't have any reason to lie about it, till today, our agency never lie or giv

    "What do you mean by Bryan's name being in Uncle Benjamin's will?" Stacy's voice trembled as her mind was still trying to rewind his words.Leveron once again said the same thing but in more detail over one sentence, "It's true, madam, young Master Bryan's name is in the will of Mr. Benjamin, he has the authority to claim Mr. Benjamin's business and assets."Stacy swallowed hard before asking a question, "When did my mother find out about this? I mean when did she get to know about the will of uncle Benjamin?"Leveron gave a response which can give an answer to Bryan's all questions, "According to the lawyer, your mother knew about this years ago, I mean right after Mr. Benjamin's death, she got to know about this, even a few years back, the lawyer informed her when young master Bryan was finally found and got back home, but your mother told him it wasn't the right time since young master Bryan wasn't prepared for all this."Stacy was momentarily silent as neither words nor a suitable

    "Why are you bringing that up all of a sudden? What do you want to know?" Bryan asked, confused by his sister's words, since the girl who was never interested in him or his life in the orphanage before, now wanting to know something related to those memories, just then, the waiter came to take their order. After placing their orders, Stacy continued the conversation which was paused because of the waiter, "Bryan, there's a reason why I'm asking you about the matter that happened years ago, so please do you remember anything or not?"While Bryan was lost in thought trying to remember the day about which Stacy is talking about, while Ronald spoke up on behalf of Bryan, "We were too young at that time, but I do remember Bryan was unconscious and brought to the orphanage by someone," Stacy looked to Bryan for confirmation, while Bryan was only confused, "I can't remember anything about that, the only memories I have are from the orphanage, nothing else, I don't remember anything that hap

    Stacy's words surprised Ronald, while Bryan laughed sarcastically after listening to her words, "So, did your father told you to provoke me to find out what my intentions are, after leaving that house? Do you want to drag me back to that hell and get me engaged to Mr. Wilson's daughter for your own benefit? What's your purpose in talking like this? Why are you acting so good to me while wanting something from me in return?""Bryan, calm down," Ronald tried to calm him, Ronald had seen sincerity in Stacy's earlier conversation and didn't want Bryan to be rude to her unnecessarily until they find out what exactly she means by those words, Bryan sighed and pulled his hand away from Ronald's grip, "Didn't you hear what she said, Ron? I gave up on everything, I cut ties with them using my blood as ink to prove I don't want to be part of them, now she comes here, talking nonsense to provoke me."Stacy leaned back in her chair with a peaceful expression, "I'm not speaking nonsense, Bryan, I'

    "Are you drunk?" Bryan asked bluntly as he heard Stacy's words, because according to him none with sane mine or in consciousness would speak something crazy as that, while she responded to his blunt comment, "Not so funny." Bryan continued with a sigh, "Then what do you mean by my name being in the Will over Jake's, when he is their biological son? Does that make any sense to you, Ron?"Ronald nodded in agreement with Bryan's words, "Yeah, you're right dude, it doesn't make sense, sister." Realizing his slip of tongue, he quickly corrected himself, "I'm sorry, I mean, Lady Stacy." Stacy smiled understanding his fear, "You can call me sister, Ron, I don't mind at all, at least if you call me sister, I'll feel happy.""Don't change the subject," Bryan said, clearing his throat awkwardly knowing that she is speaking about him only, Stacy chuckled taking a sip of water, "Okay, I'm not drunk, and I'm not talking nonsense, Bryan, I just found out about this a few minutes back, and I trust

    Bryan shrugged his shoulders not being bothered by anything, "How could I know unless I go there?" Ronald scratched his head, not understanding Bryan's calmness and careless behaviour even in a serious situation like this, "This guy, I have no clue what's going on in his head, sometimes, I wish I could just open it up to see all his thoughts."Both Bryan and Ronald reached their dorm, Ronald hesitated, pulling Bryan back, "Bryan, maybe we should run away? That man will not leave us alone.""Why?" Bryan sighed at Ronald who is scared of everything, "Don't be a coward, let's go," he dragged Ronald along. When they reached their room, the door was open, just as Bryan had expected, "Didn't I tell you some pigs would raid our room once we left? Look at them now," Bryan pointed at the opened doors.Ronald wasn't as confident as Bryan to go straight inside but decided to follow Bryan, they walked in to find Felix and Nolan searching every corner of the room Bryan leaned against the door leis

    Bryan's warning made both Felix and Nolan understand their situation, because it's not so easy to deal with Bryan using their foolish brains, while he is a mastermind who is aware of every single step taken by others, without saying much, they both left the room lowering their heads, leaving the room both of them decided that it was better not to mess with Bryan since it would only bring them trouble as Bryan is prepared for everything.The night passed quickly before they even realised, the dark night welcomed a warm light quickly.In the morning, like always, Bryan and Ronald parted ways to go to their own classes, Bryan even skipped his breakfast as he is in a hurry to reach the class when he finally entered in his class, he noticed Mirabel sitting quietly, staring at the wall being lost in her own thoughts, he sat beside her, but she didn't even notice his presence which made Bryan to be worried, "Mira? Are you okay?""Prince," Mirabel mumbled as she glanced at him, hearing his vo

    Mirabel's serious face and pout made Bryan chuckle, because sometimes her actions make him to forget that she is the same age as him, since her behaviour is more like a child, she sighed and repeated her question, "So, is it your girlfriend? Did you break up with your girlfriend?"Bryan tried so hard not to react but chuckled once again, "Girlfriend? What girlfriend? Whose girlfriend?""The one Ron mentioned," Mirabel clarified pointing at Ronald."I don't have any girlfriend, I'm single, not in any kind of relationship, the only girl who is by my side 24/7 is only you, my dear little devil," Bryan said with a smile trying to ease her mind.Mirabel's heart fluttered with happiness at Bryan's words, she wasn't sure why she was furious thinking of Bryan having a girlfriend, more surprisingly happy to know that Bryan has no girlfriend and the only girl around him is her.Bryan moving close to her face keeping his face just an inch away from her's asked, "Even if I had a girlfriend, why a

    Bryan and Ronald both were surprised to see Mirabel being displeased with Ronald's choice, Bryan managed to ask, "Why don't you like it? It sounds good, doesn't it?" Mirabel turned to Ronald without responding to Bryan, "Why did you suggest only my name?""Because you played a big role in his investment, and also you always support him, don't you?" Ronald responded though he isn't sure why Mirabel is furious over something so simple."So what? I just played a small part but you've always been there for him, aren't you more important? I'm so disappointed with your choice of not including yourself but including only me, when the three of us are friends," Mirabel countered pointing out Ronald's mistake of ignoring himself.Ronald felt emotional listening to Mirabel's words, he used to worry back in the past that if anyone new comes in Bryan's life would push him aside to be Bryan's favourite but Mirabel was different, strengthening their bond instead of thinking to break it like everyone

    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.

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." Bryan nodded, she gave a kiss on his forehead, "take medicine well, you need good rest too, don't stress and don't overwork, it's no

    '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
