At Boisdale Bar

“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

Brian’s sleep is interrupted when he hears noises from the downstairs, it is a familiar voice.He lazily opens his bedroom door and takes a look to the first floor. It was Brenda, she just arrived with no luggage, just a small bag with her.

When Mark disappeared and Brian about to enter his car, he glanced at the Red McLaren X2020, ‘Dude, I will take your car and your girlfriend’ He smirked.----

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

Thank you mommy!” He said it as he hugged Anna tightly“What do you want to eat for lunch?” Anna asked him“Mommy, will you cook for me?”“Sure, what do
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.
