The Mission of the Lost Heir 99. Heart to Heart
There was silence for a long time, lost in thought and Azil watched Brian. The newly revealed facts seemed to encourage Brian to find out what happened. However, who knows what Brian might do."Brian," called Azil.The man turned around with a sad look.“I know this is not easy to accept. Because I needed time to accept it, there were lots of questions lodged in my head. However, you have to find out for yourself, that way you can make a decision. That may or may not be true. But, only one person can explain the truth to you,” Arnold said.Brian looked at him."Yes. That's your grandfather, Arnold Kentinx. But as far as I know, the man is sick," said Azil.Brian's brow furrowed.“You should hear it directly from him, not from me. So, meet him as soon as possible when you have the chance. If the opportunity is lost, you will only regret it.”Azil's words made Brian even more silent."Should?" Brian muttered.“Yes, of course you should. You have to listen first to what happened in the p
The Mission of the Lost Heir 100. Old story
After dinner and chatting again with his uncle, Brian said goodbye and went to bed early and because Azil was still taking medicine, Brian told him to rest. The journey from village to city takes quite a long time.I don't know how, but Brian handed over the supervision of his aunt and Dion to Alessia. The girl agreed without protest. Brian himself lay on a soft mattress. But his eyes didn't immediately close, he just lay on his back on the bed and stared at the ceiling of his room with his hands under his head."Should I leave tomorrow without telling my arrival plans first?" Brian thought.Brian had made the decision to go see Arnold tomorrow after dropping off his uncle. Azil still insisted on going and going with him wherever his wife went tomorrow to shop and have fun. Even though he admitted that he would be fine, Brian was worried about Azil because after all his uncle was still undergoing treatment.The clock showed ten o'clock in the evening. Brian squinted and sighed, then g
The Mission of the Lost Heir 101. Level-headed
Wake up from sleep when morning slowly turns into night. Brian felt like he had just had a good night's sleep and his body felt refreshed. The clock showed nine in the morning, for a moment Brian frowned."Nothing wakes me up anymore," thought Brian.Throwing back the blanket and getting out of bed, Brian walked to the bathroom to clean himself first before going downstairs where everyone was.Brian's morning felt better now. After he showered and got dressed, Brian left the room to join the others at the dining table. Azil was there with Alessia."You're awake," Alessia said as usual.Azil just showed a small smile as a good morning greeting to Brian.Taking the chair that Brian usually sat in, the man returned his uncle's smile. Alessia went to make a warm drink so Brian could have breakfast."Where's Auntie?" Brian asked his uncle."In the room. Dion went out to have a look. Sorry to bother you, Brian," said Azil.“Come on Uncle, stop saying that. I already said it's okay. Don't wo
The Mission of the Lost Heir 102. Afraid of Being Disappointed
At the same time as his uncle and family left, Brian also went with Alessia to Arnold's house. The girl drove the car while Brian remained where he was."You are okay?" Alessia asked, occasionally glancing at Brian."Yes," said Brian briefly, but his voice couldn't lie and made Alessia laugh a little."You're nervous, aren't you?" guessed the girl.Brian just nodded his head, agreeing with the girl's words. Of course, Brian was nervous because somehow he would hear the story behind all the secrets of his presence."I was afraid of being disappointed," Brian admitted later.Alessia no longer responded, maybe the girl could feel what Brian was experiencing.“I'm afraid that the story I heard doesn't match my expectations. What if it turns out that Mother was the one who kept my secret all this time, and it turns out that all of that happened because—" Brian couldn't explain it in words.However, it is natural that Brian is not afraid of the stories that Brian might hear from Arnold."I
The Mission of the Lost Heir 103. A Bodyguard
"We have arrived," Alesia said.Brian's attention was diverted to the front. They were in front of a fairly high gate."Here?" Brian asked, a little hesitant."Yes. You should inform the Commissioner because security here is also quite tight. Without confirmation from insiders, we won't be able to enter," explained Alessia.“Oh, that's how it turns out. Pretty tight, too," said Brian."That's normal for a conglomerate like Commissioner Arnold."Brian just nodded, took out the cell phone he kept in his jacket, and dialed the landline number that Brian happened to get from Sean. In his heart, Brian asked why Sean didn't just give his identification to pass through the high gate."Hello? Is the Commissioner there? I'm Brian," said the man as soon as the line was connected and someone on the other end of the line answered formally.From his speaking style, it seemed like the waiter was the one who received the call.“Bryan?” This time the one who said Brian's name was Manda. Brian quite r
The Mission of the Lost Heir 104. A Familiar Scent
As soon as he saw Kiara leaving with Al in the man's car. Manda took Brian deeper into the big house.“Dad wanted us to have lunch first, so we already prepared it. Hope you like it, Brian," said Manda as she walked in front of Brian."Thank you," said the man.Manda looks happy today as if the longing that the woman has been harboring for so long has paid off. In the dining room, Manda didn't say anything apart from a smile, which for Brian was better than hearing a lot of words.The furniture that decorates every place in the house is always classy-, and arranged neatly, and the furniture remains clean, there is almost no fine dust. A fresh aroma greeted Brian, even when he walked through each room he smelled the same aroma. Manda did not explain anything about the long-lasting fragrance.According to Brian, it is like a natural scent like wood or pine and flowers, the smell is calming. And the big house wasn't as quiet as Brian thought, even though what was more visible were the bo
The Mission of the Lost Heir 105. The Feelings Conveyed from Old Stories
After seeing Arnold calmer, Brian sighed. The discussion they were going to have was indeed sensitive, whether it was for Brian himself or Arnold, but what was certain was that Brian had to listen to the man's explanation, and then after that, Brian would think before making a decision."So, my mother did come here?" Brian asked starting the conversation again.Liam and Manda weren't back yet so they were just the two of them on the back balcony.Arnold nodded his head confirming Brian's question.“I came this time to hear the story that happened. So, I beg you, tell me everything. What happened between them that you don't even know I exist," said Brian without looking at Arnold.The old man took a deep breath, nodded, and seemed ready to tell what happened between his son and Brian's mother.“Your mother has indeed come here,- and knows my wife, who is also your grandmother, well. What happened was all my fault, who separated them by force, whatever the consequences. Because I want m
The Mission of the Lost Heir 106. Eternal Pain in the Heart
"I know you want to know why your mother suddenly made that decision, even though I haven't seen her at all for a month. Her relationship with Miles is fine. Unfortunately, Chintia didn't say anything about it, only apologized. Because she felt like didn't belong there."Arnold stopped and returned Brian's gaze to him.“I'm sorry, but Chintia refuses to be defended. I felt something strange about his decision. Chintia's departure was a heavy blow for my wife and Miles, they even blamed me for her leaving. I'm not defending myself because it was like that in the beginning. However, I would be lying if I didn't feel pain when Chintia left. I also consider her like my daughter, whatever the relationship. Chintia is good at everything, elegant, intelligent, likes to tell stories, kind, even fun."Even though he was full of praise for his mother, Brian felt uneasy.What caused his mother to leave?"It was very painful. I decided to bring Chintia back, but for some reason, one night the gir

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
