A man squats in front of Floyd. He stared at him like he was scanning his face. Then he winced and shook his head.
“You look like a mess. Are you sure you’re my brother?”
“W-Who are you?”
The man sighed. He stood up. “We don’t have time for this.” He suddenly pointed a gun at Raquel. Floyd’s eyes widened, and he forced himself to cover Raquel. Raquel screamed and hugged Floyd.
“What are you doing?!”
“She knows him, right? I need to kill her too.”
“No! Fuck! She is my friend!”
The man frowned. “Oh, okay. I’m sorry, Miss.” He looke

He woke up again that Johan was already in his room and telling him to get up.“Here. Wear this.” Johan put a long white sleeve polo and trousers on his bed. “It’s in your size.”“Are we here?”“Yes. You can come out anytime if you’re ready.”Johan left the room. Floyd looked at the clothes that were on his bed. He doesn’t know why he suddenly felt nervous because he was finally here at Ryeso. And based on what Johan told him, his life will not be easy here. He still can’t believe that it was not Dwayne who did it.Floyd decided to go to the bathroom and clean himself.

The Secret Life of Him 113. The Family
All members of the Lim clan family were gathered at the main mansion. Johnson couldn’t hide his excitement because his son was finally going home. Jude was helping in preparing Floyd’s room, while Aby was getting ready. She was still worried about Floyd’s safety. Johnson was not telling anyone about Floyd. He was just excited that his son was going back. But how? Floyd was kidnapped. She didn’t even know if he was still alive.“I hope that you’re really okay, Floyd.” She sighed. Then her phone suddenly rang. “Hello?”“Abigail, why did you tell me that you are already here?”“Mom?” Aby stood up. “Ahm. Sorry. There was an emergency. Who told you?”“I am invited to the dinner party.”“Really? I didn’t know there was an invitation.”“Lim’s residence called.”Aby took a deep breath. Johnson was really unexpected. “Okay. Are you and dad coming?”“Of course. Meet us there. We are preparing already.”“Okay.”The call ended. Aby was confused. She felt that her chest would explode anytime the l
The Secret Life of Him 114. Them
Floyd entering the Lim clan’s residence turned out differently from what he expected. His relatives, especially his cousins, don’t stop talking with him. He was both nervous and happy talking with them. Some of them were kind, especially his aunt Amethyst and her children. They were in the living room. Johnson was sitting in the front seat and staring at his family with a smile on his lips. Next to him was Floyd, sitting beside Aby. The two of them haven’t talked with each other because Floyd was taken by his cousin immediately to the living room. Aby couldn’t wait to ask him what happened to him. She was worried seeing the healed bruises on his face.On the other seat were Arnel, Carlo, and Carla facing Floyd and Aby. Amethyst was next with Aby. In front of her was Benedict. All of their cousins were then scattered around the room. Floyd couldn’t help but feel little being surrounded by them. One look at them, anyone could notice immediately what kind of family they were.“We are gla

“Nothing to worry about now. You just need to rest a lot more and wait for your bruises to heal,” said Johnson's personal doctor. He was called immediately by Johan to check on Floyd.“Thank you, doctor.”“It’s nice meeting you, young master.” The doctor bowed. “I will go to your father now.”Floyd nodded. He got up from bed and wore his clothes. He was in his room in the mansion because Johnson asked him to rest again after their brief meeting. Floyd was still confused about what his father had said earlier. Everything won’t be easy for him. But he didn’t want this, right?Floyd looked at the door when he heard a knock. It opened and Aby came in.“Floyd, we need—” Aby’s eyes widened when he saw Floyd was half naked. She immediately turned around. “I-I’m sorry! I didn’t know that you were changing.”“It’s okay.” Floyd took his new polo shirt and wore it. “Okay now.”Aby took a deep breath and turned around again. “Ahm. I just want to check on you. How are you?” she asked. She never go
The Secret Life of Him 116. Dinner time
“Do we really have to do this? We’re just having dinner?” Floyd asked. He had just finished showering when he learned Jude was inside his room already. He was with some maids that were preparing a tuxedo for him.“Yes, young master. This is how it should be. So, if you may?”Jude pointed to the chair in front of the mirror. Floyd was surprised that there was a mirror and a reclining chair already. His room in this mansion was bigger than his room at his mansion. It was like another house inside a house. Floyd sat down in the chair. Jude immediately put a cloth on his body as his cover. It was tied to his neck but was not hurting him. He watched him put out a small box, and he was more surprised when he saw that it was a shaving tool.“You know I don’t have any hair on my face, right?”Jude continued preparing. “You have, young master.”Floyd sighed. He was still not used to his new life. He thought having a mansion back to his home was already extreme. He didn’t realize this place was
The Secret Life of Him 117. The new master
The room was filled with silence. The music had stopped and no one dared to make another sound. Even the kids were looking in Johnson’s direction, wanting to hear what his announcement was.“I have finally decided to retire now. I’m old and I need to pay more attention to my health. I am now appointing my son, Johnson Floyd Lim, to be the next master of this family and chairman of our business. I trust him to make our businesses grow more, and I am hoping that you will all support him in everything. I will also continue helping him while I’m still here.”The room was filled with more silence. They all had mixed emotions about learning that the family would have a new master. Arnel’s eyes narrowed and he tightened his fists. He looked away and tried to control himself. They all expected that Johnson would appoint him. But not this fast.Amethyst smiled. She stood up with her husband. Their children followed them and faced Floyd.“My family is glad and willing to serve you, Johnson Floy
The Secret Life of Him 118. Deal
Their night continued. Johnson rested early because he suddenly felt that he was tired. Amethyst helped him to his room. The rest except for Arnel Lim’s family stayed in the dining area. They were drinking wine. The kids were dancing and playing. Others remained to talk about business-related matters.“Mom, do I really need to be married to Floyd again?” Aby asked her mother. They were on the other side of the room. She had been thinking about the marriage they’d talked about earlier. She agreed to it, but she was worried about Floyd.“Why? Is there something you wanted to tell me, Abigail?”Aby’s eyes widened a bit. “Ahh, no. Of course, none. I’m just worried. You saw what happened earlier, right?”“It’s normal. You have the same uncle as your husband. What we need to do is to ensure our family's position in this clan. Being with them will make us prosper more. Since you are back here, you will work at our company again.”“Huh? But I need to go back to Croatia soon.”“What will you
The Secret Life of Him 119. The new Chairman
The next day, Floyd went to Lim’s company. Everyone was preparing for the board meeting. The family will be present and all of their business partners. Everyone was waiting to meet the next chairman. Words had passed so fast.“I will announce to everyone now that you will be the chairman of the company,” Johnson said. The three of them were in his office, getting ready to go to the company. “For sure, there would be some board members who would not agree. But I have already made sure of your position. You need to be strong now, Floyd. I believe in you.”Floyd took a deep breath. “I don’t know, Father. I’m nervous.”“That’s okay, brother. It’s normal. But we are here for you. We will guide you and make sure that you are in that position,” Johan answered.“Yes. As long as your brother handles our security company. No one will dare touch you. I trust you with it, Johan.”“Of course, Father.”Floyd nodded. He fisted her arms and took a deep breath again. He couldn’t explain how nervous he
