The Mission of the Lost Heir 90. On What Basis?
They fell silent again when the waiter came to serve the dessert that Manda had ordered earlier. The elegant woman thanked her in a friendly and polite manner, very different from most rich people.As soon as the waiter came out, Arnold looked back at Brian.“And Sean is right, you look like him. Very similar," said Arnold.Brian raised his face which had been bowed to the table."That's not the first time you've heard, that you look like Miles," the old man continued.On what basis? Brian asked curiously because no matter how far Brian searched, no one could answer him except Secret.But because Secret is here now, it can provide answers for Brian. Moreover, Arnold and Manda said that Brian looked like his mother, even mentioning the name of the woman who gave birth to Brian. So the answer lies with Arnold, not with Secret, namely Sean.“No matter how far and how hard I try, I never get a definite answer. Often I'm confused, what is the similarity with him? I never thought I would ge
The Mission of the Lost Heir 91. Evidence and Facts
Brian's hand crept towards the document envelope and took it slowly, opened the cover, and took out a piece of paper from inside."That's proof that you are Miles' son," said Arnold, breaking Brian's concentration.His hand movement stopped when he was about to take out the paper. Brian was silent, his gaze fixed on the white paper showing the writing in front of him. Brian's chest rumbled, and Brian's heart beat twice as fast. Is that proof that Brian is Miles' son? However, how could this happen?“I won't force you if you're not ready to see it. However, this is just the beginning for you, Brian," said Arnold again, this time drawing Brian's attention to look at the old man.“The beginning? That is, I am a pawn in this game?” Brian answered sarcastically.“I don't care what you want to think or how. For now, I just want you to know who you are," said Arnold.Brian chuckled sarcastically. But then he returned to the paper in his hand, took it out, and read what was written on it.Tha
The Mission of the Lost Heir 92. Crying on Silence
Brian seemed to have lost concentration and just sat in his chair. Alessia was driving the car. Brian's blank gaze was fixed on the envelope in his lap.Is it true that Brian is Miles' son? However, how is that possible? For twenty years, Brian knew nothing about his father. However, suddenly someone appeared who revealed who Brian's father was. What a funny life. Brian couldn't even say anything or even throw a tantrum.Should Brian believe it? But, the evidence in his hands was irrefutable. Based on the test results, Brian is indeed the son of Miles, who is Arnold's son. Technically Brian is the old man's descendant, right?Closed his eyes and tried to calm down. There's no point throwing a tantrum, right? So Brian chose another way to accept the situation. The meeting was completely beyond Brian's expectations. It turns out that Kiara is Brian's younger cousin.“I wonder how Mother met him?” Brian thought silently.Alessia didn't say anything and remained focused on the road. Occas
The Mission of the Lost Heir 93. Brian's Decision
Brian finally calmed down after a while. The man remained where he was, only now he changed his legs to cross-legged on the carpet. Brian's surroundings looked messy but he didn't care and started to lose himself in thought.“I have to know the truth. I will believe the evidence. However, I need a reasonable reason for the blood flowing in my veins," Brian said to himself.His cold and sharp gaze focused forward, on the photo frame showing his mother's beautiful face illuminated by moonlight from the window with the curtains closed. That woman was his mother who had secretly brought Brian into the world. Throughout Brian's life until now, he never thought that maybe his father would still be around, Brian never hoped again. Brian's small heart decided to bury that hope,- and confirmed that his father had died.But apparently, the whisper in his heart at that time was a prayer. His father was no longer in the world, but there were still people who could tell Brian about this man, and t
The Mission of the Lost Heir 94. Not Excited
After everything that happened, Brian seemed to have lost his enthusiasm. His gaze was still blank even though he woke up in the afternoon and took a shower, completely different from usual. Brian seemed to live in another world.After showering, Brian felt fresher, but his head remained empty. There's nothing Brian can think about right now other than the picture of the test results in the file stored on the table not far from Brian's bed. It looks like Alessia put the brown envelope there. But Brian only glanced briefly then walked out of the room.Slowly descending the stairs, Brian's enthusiasm for life seemed to disappear. Although his footsteps were slow, he almost tripped. Was that fact so surprising that it changed his every expression and even his steps?"You're here," said Alessia who met Brian at the bottom of the stairs.Brian's gaze fell on the girl's hand which was holding something.“Oh, here. I did a little shopping and delivered Kiara's things, like the ones you said
The Mission of the Lost Heir 95. Hopeless
As soon as he finished telling what happened when he met Kiara's family and revealed the test results that Brian got to Alessia. Brian was surprised to see the girl's expression."How is that possible? You… is that –" Alessia stuttered.Brian observed the girl's surprised expression. His expression was so natural, like when Brian found out the test results.“That's what they said, and from the test results,” said Brian.Even so, Brian still kept an eye on Alessia. Something made Brian believe in the girl, that Alessia had another boss, in other words, Alessia had a job but who knows what it was. Brian didn't know for sure, but to some extent Brian was sure.Alessia really couldn't believe that fact. He even looked more surprised than Brian.“So that's why you shut yourself away and changed a little? This news has shaken you up,” said Alessia.Brian nodded his head, confirming what the girl said. That's why Brian is like that, but that hasn't changed completely. However, it is still di
The Mission of the Lost Heir 96. Alessia's Creations
Curious about what happened and who was looking for Brian, the man got up from his seat and walked over to Alessia who was still receiving a call from the guard in front of the entrance gate to the housing complex where Brian was now.Standing next to the girl, Brian paid close attention to what they were talking about."I see. I'll say it first. Wait a moment," said the girl, and took the telephone receiver away from her ear and turned to Brian.Brian's gaze turned to Alessia, asking who was looking for him.“Someone is looking for you, but the guards can't let him in without your permission. Here they are waiting for confirmation from you," explained Alessia as she handed Brian the telephone receiver."Who is looking for me?" Brian asked again.“Hm. Who knows. But the doorman said the person said it was your uncle," answered Alessia.Brian's eyes widened when he heard someone coming who claimed to be his uncle. Did Uncle Brian come? How could that be?Receiving a call from Alessia,
The Mission of the Lost Heir 97. Repaying Suffering with Happiness
"I've come back and brought him," said Alessia, reporting to Brian, whom she met in the yard.Brian nodded his head and directed his gaze to the three people behind Alessia.The first person Brian saw was a middle-aged man whose skin was blackish brown due to being exposed to the sun for too long and the result of his hard work earning a living for his family. The face that was once brightly smiling and the calm eyes that Brian had always missed were now present in front of him, soothing Brian's heart, who was not feeling well, his heart seemed to be doused with morning dew."Uncle," said Brian to the man who was quite tall like Brian."My son," answered the man, smiling broadly.Even though his smile and gaze were still the same, the man's body was no longer the same, he looked frail and thin as if he had not been taken care of.Unable to resist the growing longing, Brian approached the man and threw himself into his uncle's warm embrace.Brian would only be spoiled by his uncle, but

For a long time, he was silent in the room with his reflection in the mirror. The big event finally took place tonight, at one of the five-star hotels owned by the Kent Group. Brian looked at his reflection in the mirror. Everything was ready, and he looked perfect in a navy suit, Brian let his hair a little messy to make an impression, after all, that was his style. His watch was on, and so were his shoes."Let's go, Young Master," said Kiara, peeking at Brian from behind his bedroom door. The girl's smile always seduced him.Brian turned around,- and nodded.Kiara welcomed Brian, hugged the man's arm affectionately, and even laughed happily as she walked down the stairs in a long-sleeved, knee-length navy dress, just like Brian. Manda didn't want her daughter to show off her curves so she designed a dress that was closed but elegant. Kiara looked like a princess with her black hair neatly styled and decorated with beautiful hairpins.Everyone was waiting for him in the living room.
163. The Effect of Sorry
Is everything finished now? I don't think so. There were still disturbing feelings in Brian's heart.“Even so, I remained by his side. Because honestly, I liked Miles the first time I saw him. But, he was cold,- and didn't care about the meeting at all. I know that he has someone he loves. Jealousy got the best of me, making me think of crazy things to separate them."Brian's heart ached when he heard Miles' confession. How bad is jealousy if it gets out of control? Is it that difficult to endure, and get rid of that feeling of jealousy? Brian didn't know, but it was something everyone had.“Miles didn't know anything, neither did Chintia, and I was the one who separated them. For some reason, I wanted to meet you,- and say this. To be honest, the feeling of guilt after Miles died in an accident because of my uncle made me unable to calm down. Then, I heard a rumor that Miles had a child. Of course, the child wasn't with me, because Miles never touched me.”A feeling of relief envelop
162. Jennifer's Confession
Seeing that the girl was busy, Brian's thoughts began to wander, and his heartbeat increased even more. For the first time, Brian felt such a strong urge within himself."Is that okay?" Brian asked in his heart.Occasionally the man glanced at Alessia's smiling face. He still seemed happy because Sean already had a girlfriend, which meant Alessia would have a sister-in-law. Brian doesn't understand, but Brian seems to have to admit that Sean is great,- and unexpected. Even though they had often been together, they had never seen a man with a woman."They're not dressed." Brian blinked his eyelids even more.What is the meaning of that thought?"I am done. Would you like a snack tonight?” Alessia offered while drying her hands and looking at Brian who remained silent.For some reason, the lighting behind the girl became dazzling, making Alessia even more charming. Are the hormones in Brian's body active? Oh, wherever Brian is, he doesn't seem to feel any hormonal fluctuations.“Bryan?”
161. Other Things from Sean
After Azil conveyed this to Brian, Brian's doubts about his father shook his heart, but he couldn't change his decision. For several days, Brian decided to stay in the house that Miles gave him. Arnold didn't mind it either because Brian needed to calm down.That question filled Brian's mind and heart again. What was his father's reason for sleeping with another woman? Is it still appropriate for Brian to call Miles his father? I don't know, Brian doubts it.The house is still the same because someone always comes to clean. Brian also comes occasionally. Brian won't be able to leave that house, maybe one day he will decide there, rather than Arnold's big house.“I will prepare for tonight. Do you want something?" Alessia asked as usual. The girl also accompanied Brian."Whatever you cook," Brian answered.Alessia just nodded and went to the kitchen to make dinner.For several days together at home, Brian was just silent, occasionally reviewing material for his campus trial which would
160. Shaken Heart
"I don't believe it. Brother Miles can't do something embarrassing like that. He must have been framed. That's right, he must have been framed," said Manda hysterically, not believing what she saw.Brian couldn't say anything, neither did Azil, even Liam who tried to calm Manda."Who's he?" Brian finally asked.But Azil was silent and shook his head."Jenifer, you may have heard of it," Liam said in response to Brian's question.Brian's eyes moved, the woman who had an arranged marriage with Miles but was rejected,- was close to Brian's father,- and was involved in Miles' accident.Brian didn't say anything now,- and cupped his face with his palms. Closed his eyes, let the clear and salty liquid fall from his eyelids, and cried silently. Brian's heart ached, why could this happen? His poor mother.Manda is still crying regretting her ignorance in the past. What happened, whether true or otherwise? Brian doesn't know, but now the question is why his mother left after trying to survive

“You can continue, don't mind Manda. We will still listen even if it hurts,” Liam said to Azil.Even though he was a little hesitant, seeing Brian waiting made Azil nod his head.“I insisted not to ask what the reason was. But, I secretly went back to town to find out,- and also told Miles. However, what do I get? Just hate and hurt when I see Miles with a woman, even though he looks so happy," said Azil.Azil's facial expression changed to anger, but that was only for a moment. After taking a deep breath, we continued the story.“I came back,- but didn't say anything to Sis Chintia. However, I understand the reason for making a sudden decision, and not even explaining anything. The heartache of being betrayed by a woman is like the end of everything. I understood Sis Chintia's decision,- and decided to leave, even hide. Sis Chintia probably thought that by disappearing, Miles would be happy.""That's not true," muttered Manda. “We have never been happier since then,” he continued, so
158. Chintia's Secret Decision
"So, I think it's time for you to find out what happened to your mother," said Azil.Brian automatically straightened up when he heard Azil involve his mother in the story he was going to tell."Mother?" Brian assured Azil that he had heard correctly."Yes, your mother, Chintia," repeated Azil, looking at Brian. "I came to tell you the reason why Sis Chintia chose to leave your father and hide herself," continued the man.Brian's eyelids moved slowly. When Brian started to no longer want to know about the past, and the reasons why his mother chose to give up after maintaining the relationship with all her might. But when Brian tried not to care, and decided not to know, someone came, claiming to know the reason."What has happened?" Brian asked in a weak voice.Brian's chest was now rumbling, there was a feeling of tightness touching his chest. What might Brian have heard from Azil about his mother making secret decisions?Azil sighed, focusing his gaze on Brian who was waiting to hea
157. Azil's Arrival
Brian's busy life is always the same, studying, practicing, and working. Spending time doing many things doesn't make him feel bored, the man is enthusiastic about continuing. If no one reminded him to rest, Brian would drown in his busy life.Alessia is like a living alarm for Brian, the girl reminds Brian when it's time to rest, have lunch or dinner, and when he should go to bed early and wake up. Even though the distance between them has now widened, attention and affection have never diminished, on the contrary.That afternoon Brian had just come out of Arnold's study which he usually used for studying. A text message came to Brian's cell phone.[I came to visit, are you free?]Ask for a text message from Azil.Brian immediately responded with a telephone call,- and asked if Uncle Azil would come.“Yes, I came to visit,” answered Azil.“Where is Uncle now? I'll pick you up," said Brian."No need. "I've arrived," said Azil."Here?" Brian turned around and looked for his uncle."Yes
156. Honestly, Avoiding it is Pointless
Brian threw himself on the living room sofa, there was no one there. Brian was tired even though he didn't do much work."Being the center of attention is tiring," Brian muttered with a sigh."Why?"Brian turned to where the voice came from. Manda appeared out of nowhere with a jar of snacks in her hand,- and a cup of drink that was still steaming. The afternoon is perfect for spending time with a cup of warm drink.Straightened his body and sat down. Brian watched his aunt put cups and jars on the table and then looked at Brian.“What are you mumbling about, Brian?” Manda asked curiously.However, Brian was silent and Manda did not demand that Brian say it."You have to be able to handle it," said Manda after taking the television remote and changing the channel. "When it's finished, you'll get used to it, and after that maybe you won't care," continued Manda as if he knew what Brian was muttering.If Manda knows, why ask? Brian thought his aunt's attitude was a little strange.“I'm
