“What topic, Mom?” Samuel asked. “There’s nothing, Samuel! Eat your food,” Liah said, trying to ignore the topic. “Mom, you just said something can’t be shared in front of me, and why can’t I know if it’s related to me?” Samuel pressed. “Sam! When something is related to you, I’ll tell you. If I'm not telling you, then it's not necessary! So stop talking between elders.” Liah snapped. Samuel fell silent, but he thought, “I’m sure something’s brewing in both Mom and Sarah Aunt’s minds.” “Mom, I need something to do, so I'm taking my food to the room,” Samuel said and carried his plate upstairs while Liah finally turned to Sarah. “Did you see how interested he was in knowing about his father? But you kept dodging it,” Sarah said. “Enough of this topic, Sarah! I don’t want to hear about it. I know what I did, and I won’t regret this choice. But if I ever see him again, I’m sure I'll regret it deeply. And I’m not lying about it,” Liah declared. “Liah, you’re making a mistake. What

"I know!!!!" "But the deal's a deal. I recorded your message. Even if nobody finds you yet, if I report you, you'll become the number one suspect in this country. So the answer depends on you too," Aaron messaged through the computer again. "Okay, I agree. I'm giving you some slack, Uncle," Samuel replied and released the website from his hold. "Aaron, did we get it? Did we get the site back?" Aeron Hermes asked, panicked. "Yes, he's released it. You can start fixing things up," Aaron said and walked out of the room. "Who could it be? Why did this person ask me about Sarah and Liah?" Aaron pondered as he left the room. He soon received a message: "Sir, we have a patient waiting for you. Hurry to the hospital." Seeing the message, Aaron put his thoughts aside and drove to the hospital. Meanwhile, Samuel removed his headphones and said, "This time, I gave up your website, but it won't always happen. I'm not always that generous, old uncle." "I just need confirmation from Aunt S

"Did you find the information I told you to?" Samuel spoke into his headset, a smile playing on his lips as the connection established. "Got it all," the voice on the other end chirped, a matching smile audible in the tone. "Prepare to be surprised." Samuel chuckled. "Surprised? I doubt it." "Alright, then. Let me email you the intel and prove me wrong." A mail pinged into Samuel's inbox, and he eagerly opened it, finding a truth that sent tremors through him. "Shocking, isn't it?" the voice teased. A smirk crept across Samuel's face. "I didn't realize I already had him in my grasp. Even though the site I snagged belongs to his brother, Aeron Hermes, he's half-owner of the company, making it his too. This game just got interesting." Curiosity replaced amusement in the voice. "What's your next move?" "Oh, I'll let him try to pry the site from my clutches," Samuel drawled, savoring the anticipation. "As you wish," the voice conceded before disconnecting. Samuel devoured the det

“Nothing happened, Liah! You're worrying for nothing.” "Don't you know about Sam? With him by my side, do you think the worry will go away?" Sarah chuckled, hiding the truth. "Yes, that's true," Liah answered while playfully pulling Samuel's cheeks. "This little rascal! Never leaves me in peace, nor you! I'll take all your tech gadgets," Liah threatened Samuel. "I'll lock myself in my room before you do that!" Samuel said with laughter, running and locking himself in. "This kid will never change," Liah sighed, rubbing his head with a hint of worry. "It's okay. He's a child. Kids his age behave like this, but he truly takes after his father," Sarah said, making Liah glare at her. "How many times have I said this? No one speaks his name in front of me. I didn't return here after all these years to hear about him, but to expand my business, which is going smoothly now. Once I've set up the branch here, I'll move on again." Liah's voice held a steely resolve. "But Liah, you should

"Ma'am, two parents are here to enroll their child," the receptionist said."Yes, I already have information about Mr. Aaron Hermes and Miss L—" the principal started, but Sarah interrupted."Yes, ma'am, I'm here regarding my nephew's admission. You must have spoken to his mother already, so I think we can speed up the process," Sarah said, a bead of sweat trickling down her cheek in panic."Yes, Miss Sarah! I received information from the mother that you'd be here regarding the admission of her son, Samuel Williamson. I'm sure we can handle it quickly.""Please, don't just stand there. Sit down, and I'll expedite the process." The principal gestured for them to sit in front of her."So, Mr. Aaron, why isn't the father present? Is there an issue?" the principal inquired."He has some important work, so I'm here on his behalf," Aaron answered."Ha! I see how responsible your 'so-called brother' is," Sarah quipped, glancing at Aaron."Okay, Mr. Aaron, please fill out the information for

"So Samuel, how's your stay been? Did you miss your Aunt Sarah while you were away?" Sarah asked, kneeling down to meet the six-year-old eye-to-eye."Of course I did, Aunt Sarah! But Mom always changed the topic whenever I mentioned coming to see you, and you were busy too," Samuel said with a pout."Do you know why?" he tilted his head, curious.Sarah chuckled. "It's best if we focus on getting you settled in for your school admission process, okay? That's going to take all your brain cells!" she said, giving his hair a playful ruffle.Samuel giggled. "Fine, fine! But let's go find out about it soon, okay?"Sarah helped him into the car, her face momentarily clouding over. She quickly masked it though, focusing on driving to the school.As they arrived, the school entrance buzzed with activity. "Samuel, why don't you wait for me near the gate while I park the car? Don't run off, alright?" Sarah instructed."Okay, Aunt Sarah! Take your time. I'll be fine," he replied, clutching his iPa
