"I didn't say she isn't." The director said, but shrugged. “Friedrich is the one who calls the shots, boy.” He spoke, making a pitying face at Brandon.“Help me out of here.” Brandon asked.The director put his hand to his chest."Are you trying to buy me off, Lord Ashford?"“I pay whatever you ask for. You know very well that I am innocent. You know I didn't do this!" Brandon was desperate. His brother… was alive."Do I, now?" Bismark asked, smoothing his chin. “I don't know if I even know, Bran. It's complicated. I hope you understand my side.”"How much? Whatever that fucker paid, I pay double, triple!”"Hmmm... I'm enjoying how stubborn you are, Mr Ashford."“He did not act alone. Who's with him? The gang?"Bismark smiled even more widely, if that was possible.“Smart boy! You must be the pride to your father!” Bismarck spoke.“I mean it, Bismark!” Brandon said. “I need to save my woman!”“So romantic! The gallant knight saving the damsel in despair.” He said, dramatically. “Ah… b
“Please… with the lights off.” She asked, embarrassed. . That way, she could think about Brandon more freely."But I want to look at your face." Gideon spoke and kissed her. "Lucy..." She turned her head slightly to the side“Gideon…why?” She asked and he, who was about to close the bedroom door behind her, looked up. Those blue eyes of Brandon."Why what, my goddess?"She bit her lip and that caught his attention. He loved the form of her lips. He wanted to have her all the way. "Why do you want me?" She asked.He sighed deeply and caressed her face.“Because I fell in love from the first moment I saw you.”"Perhaps you are mistaken."“No…” He shook his head. “I saw you with Brandon, and then I knew you and I would be great together. A perfect couple."She wanted to say he wasn't Brandon, but she wouldn't make that mistake again."Turn off the lights..." She asked and kissed his cheek.Gideon nodded and pressed his mouth to her ear."Call me Brandon, I'll let you do it, tonight." He
Gideon didn't ask questions, he didn't interrupt Dr. Krasner at any time. He had learned all too well what happened to anyone who interrupted one of the adults. And as much as Dr. Krasner was good enough to take care of him and beat him up, still, Gideon had to hold to the rules. He was already playing with his luck. “Are you understanding so far, Gideon?”"Yes sir." He replied and Krasner smiled. The light reflected off his round glasses, making Gideon unable to see the man's eyes. Such a creepy image. "Very good. After insemination, they discovered that they would not have one, but two children. To the family’s discomfort, they would have two boys.”“In a family like this, having two boys, twins, was a very big problem. And do you know why, Gideon?”"No sir." The boy asked, calmly, his head down. "Well, I'll tell you: the problem is that just that could cause a fight between the brothers." Krasner said. “There can only be one heir. Therefore, they would need to get rid of each ot
Gideon became obsessed more and more with Lucy. When Brandon died, he wanted to take her for himself, but Krasner said it wasn't time yet. The Gang was getting stronger and they needed Gideon's help more than ever.As such, Gideon kept the Gang running smoothly. Then Friedrich appeared. According to Krasner, that was the name that would have been given to him, but when they decided not to keep the second child, all that was left was the baby's certificate. Once again, Gideon felt betrayed, used, discarded. "They used my identity so that Brandon would, once again, have another chance. Have a chance of a good life, with a family. With Lucy!" And this time, Brandon has returned to be the true Ashford heir, with all honors. Gideon might not have cared so much if it weren't for the fact that Brandon went after Lucy again."He lied to her!" He raged, letting his anger show to Krasner, as he broke some items in the house. Krasner never scolded him. “He abandoned her, he left her in depressi
For Gideon, that was the best night of his life, without a doubt! He felt Lucy's mouth on him, in a way he had no idea it was possible to go to heights.'Is that what she did to him?' he couldn't help but wonder, a little sadly. He didn't want to imagine that Lucy had things built up with Brandon."Lucy..." He stroked her hair.She, in turn, had to think only of Brandon. She knew how he reacted to her every touch and all she wanted most was to be with him.Lucy asked Gideon to lie down and she turned on the light. Every time she appeared to his face, Brandon's she visualized."Hmm?" She asked, lying on his chest."I can't live without you anymore." He said, stroking Lucy's back. She could feel his affection, but like Damon, she couldn't love him.With Gideon it was a little more complex, after all, it was complicated, being with the man she wanted.“I wish I had known you before he did. I wish you were just mine.”“I can't just be yours. I love Brandon.” She felt Gideon tugging on her
A few days passed and it was visiting day again. Chung-hee accompanied the lawyer this time. Ellie wanted to go, but Rindley asked her to go next time, as he wanted to go too."Any news?" Brandon asked. Chung-hee shook his head.“The Gang stopped the attacks. They will probably stay low profile for a while.”"The Doctor Andrew said that Lucy was most likely taken to Asia. If the Gang is with her…”"It's possible. "Brandon looked around and sighed heavily."I have a brother who is alive." He said and Chung-hee widened his eyes as he looked at him.“What do you mean by you have a brother who is alive?”“Apparently his name is Gideon. The director here and I kind of have an agreement. He will help me out of here.”“Careful, Bran. I heard bad things about this man.” Chung-hee said and Brandon knew he couldn't completely trust Bismark."I don’t doubt you. But I need to risk it.” He said, shaking his head from one side to the other. “I’m stuck in this shit hole, Master.” “And talk me mor
After talking to Hartley, Chung-hee had an idea of what had happened. Krasner was a doctor who treated the Ashfords."And how did you guys never find out that he was a dangerous man?" He asked William, in his office."I don't know. My father said he knew him, so I trusted him.”“Gareth knew Dr. Krasner?” Chung-hee asked, confused."Yes, he said they were good friends."Chung-hee knew he had something very wrong there. Gareth and Chung-hee were supposedly best friends. How could Gareth have any involvement with Krasner? He never even mentioned that man's name. And to think he was the official family doctor!"I don't understand. Gareth never told me anything about this man.”William frowned. His father only trusted Dr. Krasner, and indeed it was very strange that the old man had not mentioned this to his supposed best friend.A bad feeling filled Chung-hee's heart. He had a bad feeling too when he met Gareth, but the man had saved him and so Chung-hee ended up trusting him and warding
Ellie felt William wanting her to approach him, and for the first time, Rindley's words popped into her head."William, I..."“I think it was almost worth dying for.” He said and she looked at him in horror.“My goodness, how can you say such a thing??”“What did you expect, Ellie?” He asked. "I almost had to die to see you're perfect.""OK enough. I will call the nurse.”He tried to ask her not to, but she did it anyway.Ellie took a deep breath. Her life felt like it was going downhill from there.….Brandon had been showering in the 'borrowed' bathroom, and when this information reached the other inmates, it was explained to them that Friedrich was feeling uncomfortable with certain attentions paid to him.To some, it showed that Friedrich was nothing more than a spoiled brat, a rich kid who didn't want to mingle with the riffraff. For others, it was a demonstration of Friedrich's power. Only the headmaster could give that order, and everyone knew that Bismarck was not a kind man.
