Chapter 419 - 169: Long time no see (3)

Brando gave his brother an advise as he is worried that he may find himself in trouble and didn't know how to get out of it just like what happened with Jessica, his brother, keeps on entangling himself with different women just to please their father and hide the fact that he was gay but whatever he does his father will still be able to tell, Benjamin was their father anyway and he could somehow sense it.

Bernard turned to face Brando, frowning. Brandon is right, but the problem is, even if Benjamin already knows or guesses that he is not straight just like the way he wanted him to believe it is still hard for him to find the courage to admit it because he knew that even if his father guess that he was gay like Brando, the truth that it is easy to guess but hard to accept is the reason why Bernard hesitates to tell his father. His father was a decisive man when it comes to business but when it comes to family and his sons, he always takes pride in them and if he finds out that he is also gay, he will surely feel devastated.

Sigh, do you really think that it was easy??? You and I know Dad very well, he may have guessed but do you think that he is willing to accept??? How about you? Dad hasn't accepted you as gay until now, he only asked you to find a surrogate mother so that you still could still have a child of your own.

Brandon: " Yeah, you're right, he hasn't accepted me yet, and he asked both of us to find a surrogate because he knows that it is the only way for us to have kids of our own. I have been thinking about it too even Dad told us to, and if it is possible Irene and I could also get married and live together as a family, but how about you??? Even if you find a surrogate mother unless you know that person very well and she will not be another Jessica, then it would be good for you. But if you don't find a good surrogate mother and continue what you are doing now do you think that you could still keep your secret for long without arousing suspicions? It is highly possible that you would make another mistake that would make Dad feel disappointed. It is best for you to talk to Dad now, and promise him that you are willing to do anything to give him a grandson. Maybe that way he wouldn't be too disheartened.

"... Okay, I understand. I will think about it carefully, for now, we have to get ready to go to Brooklyn. Let's go, I will ask my secretary to book us the earliest flight to Brooklyn. Bernard said after listening to his brother, after that they both leave the hotel through the bas.e.m.e.nt parking lot using Brando's car, they both failed to note that Jessica is still there, standing to wait for Bernard at the hotel's entrance.

While Bernard and Brando were talking, Morgana arrived in Myanmar and met with her sister and Armando at their safehouse.

Armando: " Morgana, you have arrived.... I'm glad that you are back. I was trying to contact you earlier but your phone is unreachable, so I just waited and told your sister that we will just wait for you until tonight if we didn't receive any news from you, then we will go ahead and go back to Brooklyn, we will just call you after we arrived in Brooklyn. Armando said as he approached Morgana

"... Ah??? Why??? Is there any problem in Brooklyn??? Did Dad and mom contacted you??? Morgana asks feeling a little bit worried about her parents and the others.

" just a few problems have occurred, a few workers working in the pharmaceutical have gone missing including one of the scientists, Marcus just called me and informed me about it. Recently, they have been receiving threats from an anonymous person, Marcus has posted additional security officials to look after them. Unfortunately, they found them dead in the corner of the street near our pharmaceutical building and our workers are missing. We still don't know if those behind it are terrorists or people who are jealous of our company since our company prosper and earn a fortune because of the medicine that the scientists on the island are formulating.

What worried me most is Eric, we all know that that kid is a genius, and he could also be the target of those people. Marcus has seen people who are watching the house and the boy that is why Marcus stop sending the kids to school for the time being, as it was dangerous for them to go out. I already send our people over there to protect them we are just waiting for you to come back. Armando explained to Morgana in detail as Morgana listened to him and furrowed her brows contemplating the situation that Eric and the people working at the pharmaceutical company are in.

" Where is my sister? If you are ready, then let's leave now so that we will arrive there early and think of a plan to find and rescue our people. Morgana said after a while, as she looks for her sister.

"... Oh, she upstairs with the others. Luigi and the others are coming with us to lend a hand. They are good at sniffing out information so they would be a big help to us. They will be here in a minute, Jewel is just working on her computer to find a clue as to where those people take our workers and holding them captives. That girl, Jewel is really good at hacking she can help us find them. Armando answered as she looks up at the third floor of their safehouse.

Morgana: ah, okay I will just go upstairs and see if I could help. Maybe I could help her upgrade her computer to a new much reliable one or give her a new computer from the system store. That way it will be much easier for her to work on it and find a clue.
