Brian turned around and faced the two people who had just arrived, his gaze flat as he welcomed their arrival."What are you doing here?" asked Kiara, the person who had just arrived with Al."Are you home yet?" Said Brian, ignoring the little girl's question."Yeah. I wasn't planning on going out to dinner at first. Is there a problem? Why is your tone so flat, Uncle?" Kiara answered as she walked over to Brian."That's none of your business," said Brian.Al nodded his head at Brian like his typical greeting.“Don't look at him too hard, Uncle. He's still little," Kiara whispered in front of Brian.There was no response from Brian other than a sharp glance at the girl."Welcome," Brian greeted Al.A smile appeared on the boy's face, and he nodded his head.Kiara chuckled at the stiff interaction between Brian and Al.“So, what are you guys doing here? I thought you were home, Uncle?" Kiara spoke again.It seemed like the girl couldn't stop talking when she was with Brian, she liked b
After making sure Brian was calm and no one had heard their conversation in Arnold's room, Liam asked Brian if he was ready to hear the story they still had."If I have to know, just tell me," Brian answered.Liam nodded his head.“Just get on with it, okay? The commissioner has to sleep, so I'll just keep it short,” Liam said.Brian nodded his head this time,- and was ready to listen to what Liam might have to say. If the man is talking, it might be related to Miles' accident."Not long ago we found out who was behind Miles' accident," said Liam.Brian was silent for a moment,- but didn't say anything other than waiting for further explanation.“After the police closed the Miles case, we tried to forget about it, but that doesn't mean we were silent, just waiting for the right time. We recently found out who this person was open because spies were watching," explained Liam.“Why don't you take any action against the spy?” Brian asked.“That's because we have a plan. If we catch them
"Sit down," Liam said to Brian who was still watching the room.Following the man's words, Brian didn't say anything else, letting Liam continue what he probably wanted to continue earlier."You don't mind if I continue talking?" Liam asked."Of course. There's something I still want to know too," answered Brian.Liam nodded.For a few moments, there was only silence.“After you know who the mastermind is, I will continue telling the story of why we were slow to act. Apart from collecting evidence, we must be careful. It's been a long time since Mlies died. It's possible that we didn't involve you, which is why we were only able to find you after a lot of evidence was collected. Because if they find out who Miles' child is, it will endanger your life," Liam continued."So you guys are deliberately stalling for time looking for me?"Liam didn't respond."Maybe it could be said like that," he said.But Brian's attention returned to the room.“You don't need to worry. This room is safe f
After saying a few more sentences and telling Brian to be careful, Liam excused himself from Miles' room, which Brian would occupy from now on.“The recording we were referring to earlier was in the cupboard, there was a sign in the cupboard, behind the clothes that were hanging up. If you want to hear, or just want to know, look there," Liam said before leaving the room.Brian just nodded his head."Good night." After saying that, Liam left the room and left Brian there alone.After a few moments of silence, Brian got up from his seat,- but didn't go straight to where the wardrobe was, just circled the room, taking a closer look, with a gaze that missed every object that was there. The same aroma wafted into the room, but this time the aroma was more distinctive and masculine. Brian's steps moved from one corner to another, checking everything there. Brian didn't see many strange objects or items, everything looked normal and always in its place. Maybe the housekeeper cleans it almos
A dark, starry night with a crescent moon shining in the sky, became an indescribable romance for the two people who were still silent on the back balcony.Brian was silent, staring blankly at the lamp-lit garden. Meanwhile, Alessia stared blankly at Brian's back. If only they hadn't met in those few months, let alone been under the same roof, maybe nothing would have happened that could hurt Brian's feelings.The man was hesitant to return to the relationship. Clarissa now has to be happy with a man who can give her everything, while Brian is trapped in a problem that involves him. Brian is not perfect, in fact in his mind this time there is no romance at all. However, she made a request and made it an exception condition, because Brian wanted to always be with her,- because Brian could no longer trust girls other than Alessia.Their meeting was natural, but was it also part of Arnold's plan, or even Alessia herself? Brian didn't know, but it was quite annoying. Unfortunately, curren
Morning turned into night, Brian woke up first and gave his blanket to Alessia who was asleep on the sofa. After showering and changing clothes, Brian left the room, walked around the house, and watched the bricklayers busy opening the window curtains and cleaning other places. Nature wasn't so bright yet, it was still dimly lit out there, but Brian looked ready to go to the office, not exercise.“Why did you get up so early?”Brian turned to the source of the voice behind him.Manda had just woken up and was still wearing her sleeping clothes. His gaze was surprised to see Brian."Habit," Brian answered briefly."So. Don't you exercise?” Manda asked again as she approached him."Already," Brian answered briefly.Of course, is just a short practice. It was already six in the morning, the sun had not yet shown its rays, and nature still looked dim.Manda took Brian to the kitchen and offered him a cup of warm drink. Brian didn't refuse and chose to sit on a bar stool in the dining room
Recently, Brian has been busy completing his assignments to end his internship period, and after that, he will return to campus, living life as a student. Soon Brian will get a bachelor's degree. Apart from that, Brian was also busy preparing his thesis, and then his trial, and after that he was free from campus duties.However, there are still other tasks waiting for Brian.It turned out that making the final decision to accept Arnold's offer to make Brian his heir took quite a long time, even when Brian's apprenticeship ended, the man was still thinking about it. Brian was busy with campus work, so he didn't pay much attention to his surroundings. Interaction with Alessia is limited due to her busy schedule.Apart from doing his job, Brian also regularly visits Arnold's house,- and discusses several things with Arnold, as well as Liam and Sean, who occasionally spend time there. Even though he is nearly forty years old, Sean is still not free from romantic relationships, even though
Getting away from Collin and the others, Brian grabbed Kiara as quickly as possible. If only he could, Brian would have carried the little girl to speed up his steps and escape from Collin before the man realized, and took revenge.Arriving at the front of the parking lot, Brian looked around looking for a black car with the Eagle logo. Brian had contacted Alessia earlier, and the girl said she was near campus.Brian's hand rose high when he saw the car, and grabbed Kiara's hand again, not caring if the girl protested."Enter," Brian told Kiara to get into the car.The girl was annoyed because Brian told her to, but still came in and sat behind them. Alessia was surprised to see them."Let's go," Brian ordered again to Alessia who immediately obeyed and left the campus area."You shouldn't have run away, Brother Brian," said Kiara in protest."Don't interfere with them," replied Brian, glancing briefly at Alessia.Kiara folded her arms in front of her chest. It was clear the girl was
