Brian heart races when he sees the boy in front of him, who exactly looks like him. His eyes resemble Anna’s and his appearance just like Brian when he was kid. He squatted and said, “What is your name?”“Ben. Benjamin Berg”“Why are you asking?” Benjamin looked confused“Who are you with in here?” Brian ignored Ben’s question“Uncle Damian!” Benjamin answered Brian shortly with a confused faceBrian suddenly smiles widely. He is 100% sure the boy in front of him is his son. He picked up Benjamin, made Benjamin even more confused.“Uncle what are you doing?” Benjamin shouted, the staff
Anna went back to London with Katie, while Fai and Jack have an urgent meeting and need to stay another day. Fai wanted her to stay with him, as he wanted to spend more time with Anna, but Anna pleaded to go back to London, she missed her son and didn’t want to leave him too long. Fortunately, Fai understood and let her go back.Anna arrived in London around 5 pm and quickly called Damian. Brian asked Damian to go to the dinner, but Damian decided to not go, he wants to give Brian family time with Anna and Ben. Anna took a taxi to the restaurant. She entered the restaurant, Clos Maggiore, and was surprised. It is a high end French restaurant with romantic decoration. ‘Why does Damian want to eat dinner here?’In the front, a staff member asked her name and helped her to sit.

Both of them arrived at the apartment. Anna went to her room, but Ben followed her.
Brian left the apartment that night without a word. In the morning, Daniel opened the door and found Smith stands there, ready to take Benjamin to school. After saying goodbye to Ben, Daniel went back to Anna’s room, checking her. Anna felt better and her fever is already gone, however she decided to stay at home, applying for leave. Daniel was busy at the kitchen, cooking breakfast for Anna, meanwhile Damian left the apartment in a hurry for the meeting, without having breakfast. It was around 9.30 am when Daniel finished cooking when the front door bell rings. Daniel went to open it and saw a man who looked exactly like Chris standing there. The man smiled and said, “Is Arianna at home?”Daniel, who was still shocked, nodded.“I am Fai, by the way!” Fai told him and walked inside.
Anna turned around and her eyes met Brian’s. He kissed her lips, and released it. He caressed her face when Anna said, “I love you Brian. It's always you. You only!”He smiled hearing what she had said.“I love you more than anything. More than my past, you’re my present and future. You and Ben” He continued kissing her and both of them shared passionate kisses before it turned into a romantic making love.Anna was awake in the early morning and found Brian sleep soundly next to her. She smiled, it was real, she thought it was a dream. She spent minutes staring at him. Ben, suddenly pushed her door and walked in.“Mommy….” He was half-sleepy when he climbed her bed but then when he saw his daddy was there

Thank you for taking care of me, Fai!”Fai smiled at her, his eyes glanced at her new diamond ring in her left hand.“I saw Brian dropped you in. You two are back together?”“Oh, yes! He proposed to me last night. For the first time” Anna laughed“What?” Fai is little bit surprised“Previously when he knew I was pregnant Ben, he decided the mar
Anna ran toward him, she hugged him. She cried in a happy way. Brian didn’t say anything but tightened his arms around her.“I’ll ask Smith to get you a doctor later,” He said to her“Where is Ben? I want to tell him this!” Anna asked him“Go to his room, honey!” Brian told herAnna released her arms from him and walked out from the bedroom, heading to Ben’s. Brian took his phone and dialed Smith’s number.“Smith, get Anna an Obstetrician appointment tomorrow.”“Smith, one more,” Brian hesitated in the beginning but he finally said it, “Ask the doctor to take a blood sample
At Boisdale BarDamian sits alone, waiting for Fai to come over. It was Friday night, they planned to spend time together in a bar, catching up for a while after not having time to meet yet due to busy schedules. Since Anna and Damian didn’t live together, Fai rarely sees Damian like it used to when he went back and forth spending time with Anna.“Hey, sorry I was late!” Fai came and sit next to Damian“How's it going?” He added“Not much! Just working,” Damian answered him“Brother, I know we need time to get to know each other, but I am here if you want to tell me anything,” Fai informed him“Why I never see you w
Anna just changed her clothes into night dress when Brian entered the bedroom. He walked toward her and he smiled as he smelled her wife's fresh shower. He landed a kiss on her lips and said, “You smell good! Mmm make me want…..”“Honey” Anna rolled her eyes“How’s Ben? I checked him and he already slept,” Brian change the topic“He is better. How about we stay for another day until he feels better to fly again?” Anna suggested“Fine with me,” Brian agreed with herSomeone knocked on the door, then it opened from outside. It was Brenda.“Brian, mom wants to talk with you!”
Brian, Anna and Ben arrived in SoHo after lunch time.“Anna….it’s been a while!” Brenda walked toward her and gave her a hug“Oh my God…..my lovely nephew,” She said as she saw Brian hold Ben’s hand walking to the house. Brenda, who saw Ben for the first time, was so happy seeing her nephew.“Where is my boy?” Cecilia walked toward them“Grandma….” Ben runs toward her and gives her a hug“Have you eaten your lunch?” She asked Ben, ignoring Brian and Anna“Not yet! I am hungry actually,” Ben told her“Oh, my baby, l
Cecilia went back to the dining table after the call ended and they had a quiet lunch together. When they finished the lunch, Brian turned to Anna, “Honey, could you bring Ben to his room?”Anna understands quickly, her husband wants to have time with his mother. “Baby, let’s study in your room, okay?” Anna took Ben’s hand and both of them went upstairs.Brian and Cecilia walked to the garden and sat there.“What do you want, mom?” Brian asked her“So, you remarried her again?” She asked him with a deep tone“Yes!

Fai drove Anna and Ben back to the apartment. When he got back to his penthouse, he contacted Smith after he got his details from Damian.“Smith?” Fai spoke to him“Who is this?” Smith asked“Fai! Please don’t tell Brian about this!”“Smith, tell me where are you both?”“Mr Davis, I am sorry, Mr Bolton prohibits me from telling anyone. He just want to spend time alone this time,” Smith explained“Smith! Come on! This is for Anna and Ben. She forgives him and Ben misses his daddy. I just tried to help them. Brian will be happy too.”
The kiss…….Anna and Fai ended it quickly. Both of them went silent, busy with their own thoughts. Fai noticed Anna looking conflicted. He quickly said, “It's already late, I think it is better for me to leave!”Anna was taken aback, but she responded to him shortly, “I see!” She got up and walked him to the door.Fai smiled at her and quickly left. Both of them felt awkward after the kiss they shared a while ago.The next day, Fai didn’t visit them. Anna spent the whole day with Ben at home, helping him with his drawing. The weekend is right in the corner, Anna was a little bit worried about how she will face Fai. It was just right before lunch, Fai came to the apartment. He acted like normal, which is making
Anna was awakened in the morning by Ben’s kisses. When she opened her eyes, she saw a bright smile from her son.“Good morning mommy”“Morning my baby!” Anna pulled him closer to her as her hand laid to his forehead, checking his fever. She noticed that his fever had gone.“How do you feel?” She asked“I feel better mommy!”“But……”“Tell me!” Anna asked again“I am hungry mommy!”Anna smiled, hearing about it. “Tell mommy, what do you want to eat?”
A month has passed since Anna returned to London.Damian wasn’t feeling well today and he decided to work from home. He has a meeting with the SF and NY offices and it surprised him that Brian and Smith were there. Damian noticed that Brian looked colder than before. During the meeting, suddenly Ben came to his room, interrupting.“Uncle Damian, could you help me with my iPad?” Ben said it loudly as he walked toward Damian who was on a web meeting.Brian who was speaking at the meeting, suddenly went silent. It has been a while, he hasn’t seen his son and suddenly he saw Ben through the webcam. His eyes stared blankly to the camera as he saw his son around Damian embrace. It was only the last seconds before Anna quickly went into Damian’s room.
