Bryan felt dizzy. He couldn't accept that his fiancee had cheated on his brother. He turned around and ran out of the hospital. He needed to calm down now.
"Bryan, stop!" Tracy shouted. She was a little scared. If this scandal was made public, her and Jake's reputation would be ruined.
Jake's face was gloomy. He didn't expect that his secret would be overheard by Bryan. However, he had another way to let Bryan keep the secret.
Dead men don't reveal any secrets.
--
Seeing Bryan rushing out of the hospital, Josephine frowned.
"Bryan, have you properly apologized to your brother?" she shouted, but Bryan didn't answer her at all.
Bryan ran out of the hospital. He was walking like a zombie on the street, and he didn't know where he was.
However, a van suddenly appeared in front of Bryan. Before he could react and call for help, several strong men rushed up, knocked him unconscious and pulled him into the truck.
In the hospital, Josephine still didn't know what was happening outside. She walked into Jake's ward angrily and asked, "Jake, what’s wrong with Bryan now? I asked him to apologize to you, did he do it?"
Jake looked aggrieved and said, "I don't know, brother had a poker face after he came in. When he saw Tracy here, he seemed to be jealous and ran out without saying a word."
"I must teach this beast a lesson!" Josephine said viciously after hearing what Jake said.
"Don't blame Bryan, mom. His wedding was postponed all because of me. I should be the one to find my brother and apologize to him." Jake said hypocritically.
Josephine smiled and said, "It would be great if Bryan could be half as sensible as you. He always blames us for treating him badly, but he never thinks about whether his personality is extreme."
Jake got off the bed and said, "I'm going to go find Bryan and apologize to him now."
Josephine quickly stopped him and said, "Your illness is not cured yet, that little beast will come back on its own."
Jake smiled and refused his mother's obstruction. He said, "I must sincerely apologize to my brother!"
Josephine was touched by Jake's words. She hugged her son and said, "You are so kind, Jake."
Josephine left the hospital with Tracy and Jake. However, a small truck suddenly stopped in front of Jake. Several big men rushed out of the vehicle and forced Jake into the vehicle.
"Help!" Josephine screamed, but the minivan drove away in the blink of an eye, leaving Josephine screaming in fear on the road.
"Someone has been kidnapped! Call dad!" Tracy quickly reminded Josephine that in fact all this was Jake's plan. She had to stop Josephine from calling the police, otherwise the police would definitely find out Jake's conspiracy.
Only then did Josephine call Neil with trembling hands. The moment she heard Neil's voice, she cried uncontrollably.
"Neil, our child has been kidnapped!"

In a dark warehouse, Bryan slowly opened his eyes and found that he was tied to a chair.
However, to his surprise, the person sitting opposite him was actually Jake.
"Jake, what do you want to do?" he asked angrily.
"What do I want to do? Bryan, wake up, you are the one who ruined everything." Jake said with a sneer.
"Obviously, my parents, sisters, and I are a family. If you hadn't been found suddenly, we would still be living happily together! I should be the one asking you what you want to do, right?"
Bryan was shocked by Jake's words. He knew Jake was not a good person, but he didn't expect him to be so shameless.
"In this family, you are the redundant one! If you behave better, we will reward you with some care, but why you must find the secret between me and Tracy?" Jake's smile made Bryan feel cold, and he continued, "Do you think you are important in this family?"
He waved his hand, and a strong man respectfully handed a mobile phone to Jake. He looked into Bryan's eyes, dialed Neil's phone with a sneer, and turned on the speakerphone.
"Who are you! Did you kidnap Jake? We will give you whatever you want!"
Neil's voice was anxious, and Jake sneered and spoke.
"Mr. Neil, I do have your kid. Give me 5 million dollars and I will let him go."
Obviously, Jake used a voice changer, and Neil didn't even recognize that it was Jake's voice.
5 million dollars, this is the most amount Neil can come up with.
Neil was silent for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "No problem, let him go immediately and I will pay you."
Jake laughed and said, "Don't be so hurry, Neil. I mean, a son costs 5 million, and both of your sons are here."
"Two sons? You also have Bryan?" Neil's voice changed.
"Yeah, two sons, 10 million dollars." Jake looked at Bryan with a smile, his eyes full of viciousness.
"I...I don't have that much money." Neil said frustratedly.
"It's okay Neil, I didn't say you have to take both children away." Bryan's mouth was gagged. He tried to speak, but there was no way.
"Five million, you can just take one child away. I'll give you time to raise the other five million." Jake said.
Bryan's eyes were full of despair. He didn't want to hear his father's answer because he knew what the answer would be.
But he didn't want to hear this answer coming from his father's mouth.
"Let Jake go first, don't hurt him!" Neil didn't hesitate at all.
Bryan felt that all the strength in his body was drained. Jake laughed and said, "Wise choice, Neil. I will send you the address to pay the money. In an hour, when we get the money, we will release your son."
"Okay, don't hurt him, otherwise we won't pay!" Neil said.
"Of course, but your other son..." Jake deliberately brought the topic to Bryan.
Neil said impatiently on the phone: "Bryan? This is all his fault. I will raise money to save him, but he really needs to reflect on it."
Bryan listened to Neil's words and thought everything was so funny. He tried his best to please his family, but he was never truly loved.
Jake hung up the phone. He patted Bryan's face gently and said, "Look, blood relationship is nothing. People who are not loved are redundant."
He waved his hand, and several big men pulled Bryan up from the chair. The door of the warehouse opened, and there was a cliff outside, and below it was the sea.
"Bye, Bryan. Redundant guy."
Bryan didn't put up any resistance and allowed the two big men to take him to the edge of the cliff.
Faced with death, he smiled instead.
Yes, in such a family, what's the point of living?
Jake is a bad person, but are his parents and sister good people?
Before the two big men could push him, he walked to the edge of the cliff, closed his eyes, and fell back.
If he could choose, he would rather never return to this family.

WE ARE ALL SET TO LEAVE THIS COUNTRY
"How should I begin it?" Bryan thought to himself as the next morning, he arrived at the office early to set the plan in motion. He carefully created a fake financial report detailing nonexistent transactions, ensuring it looked as authentic as possible.Once the file was complete, he placed it in a safe place where Nancy usually hides the things, so that they'll not suspect it as fake.As the file was hidden safely, he placed four tiny cameras to cover angles of the room, so that he can capture every movement in the office."Now this is perfect to trap a rat," Bryan smirked, and left the room immediately, he asked Nancy also not to go into the room for a whole day and lie about having work outside.He also went to college to complete his tasks there, after finishing all, by the end of the day, Bryan returned to the office and checked the original CCTV footage of Nancy's office, as he suspected the cameras didn't work.To make it more dramatic Bryan called for a few security staff wh
I'M NOT AN EASY TARGET EITHER!
"What the meaning of this?" Bryan felt inwardly, but not wasting anytime, he left the room, and as he was on his way to leave the floor, he was caught by Jake.Without letting him to notice, Bryan hid the piece in his pocket, Jake frowned, "what are you doing here?" "Why should I answer to you?" Bryan crossed his arms, clenching his fist, Jake sighed, "Bryan, don't push your luck too much." Just then Mia who heard the commotion came there, "What's happening here?""Sister," Jake rushed to Mia, but Mia, ignoring Jake went to Bryan, "What happened?"Bryan shrugged his shoulders, "nothing, I was casually walking here, he came and started this commotion." "Jake, aren't you supposed to be in your room? What are you doing here?" Mia sighed, making Jake to shout at her, "Why are you believing him instead of me? You should believe in me, not him." Mia pinched her brows, "Bryan is my brother, ofcourse I'll believe in him over a liar like you, go back to your room before I call grandma, if
IT'S ALREADY TOO LATE!
"Grandma?" Bryan said with a small smile getting up from the chair, "I’m just going through these, nothing important, why are you here anyway grandma? Do you want anything?" "No dear," Alicia tilted her head slightly, her eyes twinkling with affection, as she looked at Bryan who resembles her late husband, "You’re just like your grandfather, always diving into work. Too much, if you ask me, unlike your father, who is so lazy to work." Bryan chuckled softly, "Working keeps me focused grandma! I don't like being lazy." "I can understand," she walked over close to him and looked around only to the find many records on the table, "You must've been so busy while looking into these, aren't you?" Bryan scratched his head with a forced smile, "Well, you can say that grandma!" "My dear, you shouldn't push yourself more than necessary," Alicia's expression turned serious for a moment. "I don’t know what’s been happening in this house lately, Bryan, but all I want is for you to stay safe,
SOMETHING CONSPIRACY
"Why is this mystery never ending?" Bryan sat in his study, surrounded by stacks of old documents and family records. Unaware of what Josephine is plotting behind his back, he is so busy in getting the truth that was buried in the past. The faint glow of the desk lamp made him feel uneasy to stare at the papers, however he is so busy and involved in flipping the pages. He had been checking through the Winterwood archives for hours, determined to find any trace of evidence to support his suspicions regarding the mysteries. As he reached the bottom of an old wooden chest, a red envelope caught his attention. The paper looked too old, the edges were torn, and the handwriting on the front unmistakably belonged to his late grandfather, Edward Winterwood, "grandfather? This handwriting is similiar to grandfather's, I still remember the handwriting of grandfather from my previous life while helping my father, if so why is grandfather's handwritten paper is here?" With a curiosity, he
BRING AN END TO EVERYTHING
"Sure, I can," Stacy said and took the file, as she checked the details, apart from very minimalistic nothing else found, "Bryan, if you don't mind, can I ask who is this man? If you don't want to say it's okay." Bryan took a deep breath and said the conversation he had before with officer Hobbes."What the!" Stacy was beyond surprised, "how can this be?" Bryan replied, "I don't know either, but the maid is already dead too, I don't believe our mom is doing all the things alone, I'm sure someone must be helping her," Stacy looked curious, "so, did you figure out anything more about these things?" Bryan sighed, leaning back to the bedframe, "Not yet, but I have a feeling this man from mom's past holds the key to everything. If I can figure out who he is, I might be able to predict her next move, until then I'm not sure of anything because things are different from my previous life at this moment, so I can't take a blind step believing in intuition." Stacy frowned in deep thought. "
CAN YOU HELP ME FIND A PERSON?
"These are the files you're supposed to look at and take care of," Josephine sat at her desk in the office, glaring daggers as everyone who was looking down on her, whereas Nancy, had been firm but fair in her leadership. To Josephine, it felt like a constant reminder of her fall from grace. Once the madam of the Winterwood household, but she was now reduced to a subordinate, a reality she bitterly hatred.Just then, her phone buzzed on the desk. It was a text from Bryan, "I think you love your new life, Mrs. Winterwood." Josephine slammed her phone down, with an angry look, "The audacity of that bastard to treat me this way! I don't know what got into him out of a sudden, all these years, I've tamed him perfectly, but he became a fox out of a sudden pulling strings to annoy me." When Nancy walked into the room, holding another set of reports, Josephine couldn’t contain her anger."Just because your father made you a CEO, do you think you're superior to me?" she hissed, with a ton
