Part 6: Feeling His Old New Life

"I am delighted to have served Mr Aland, a member of the Hamilton family, on your flight."

Teo Albert, an airport executive general manager, told Aland.

To be honest, Aland was a bit awkward in responding to Teo. After the incident that divided the Hamilton family, somehow Aland lost his trust in people.

Since Aland didn't know who was behind the major assault incident, he felt he had to be wary of people. As a result, the smile that Teo Albert gave to Aland did not necessarily make him believe it.

"Ah, you don't need to say thank you, Mr. Teo," Aland replied. "I should be thanking you."

Theo arched a sweet smile. "I was just too moved after seeing where you were, Mr. Aland. Everyone was looking for you."

Barvel gave Aland instructions, telling him to answer. Having cleared his throat for a moment, Barvel fixed his collar, and lowered his head briefly.

"Please cooperate not to reveal Aland's whereabouts," Barvel said as he bowed.

Theo chuckled. "Oh, it's impossible for me to tell anyone that Mr. Aland is here and will be returning to London. I've been entrusted with keeping this secret, it's an honor for me."

Aland watched the interactions between Barvel and Teo in turn. But at that time, Aland was interested in watching Teo's body gestures. From the way Teo smiled awkwardly, occasionally lowered his head like he was awkward, and the way he spoke a few times was a bit stuttering.

'Can someone really be trusted with what he says?' Aland thought while assessing Teo's body gestures.

Of course not.

It was hard for Aland to trust Teo, just like he didn't trust anyone else. Even Madam Ellene who said she would help her, ended up treating her like a lowly person.

The experience that Aland had throughout his life as a Hamilton family who trusted too much business partners, led to an accident. Aland doesn't know who destroyed the Hamilton family.

"You know Mr. Teo what you will get if we find out you leaked the secret of Mr. Aland's whereabouts," Barvel said warningly.

Teo stared right into Barvel's eyes, smiling confidently. "I will not reveal the secret of Mr. Aland's whereabouts," Teo replied. "Take it easy. I know the risk I get."

Barvel nodded. "Very well then," he said, then turned to look at Aland. "Mr. Aland, it doesn't feel like the time of departure is coming. Come on, let's get ready to go to your private plane now."

Alan just nodded. He then gave Teo a goodbye gesture, only a faint smile. While Barvel let Aland go first so he could guard behind.

The longer Aland and Barvel's steps were, they entered the waiting area deeper and had time to go through the security check area.

They are completely unaware. Someone, from quite a distance away, was watching with a glare. He secretly watched over Aland and Barvel's movements. Until finally he put the earpiece in the right ear.

Before long he connected with someone through a phone call.

"Yes, they have started to leave now."

London Stansted Airport, 17 Hours Later.

"Master Aland, welcome back to your country of birth."

Aland's eyes paid attention to the figure of a man in a formal suit and a gold pin bearing the eagle on the left chest. Aland did not answer the greeting given to him. But secretly, as he watched, his mind tried to guess who the man in front of him was.

Who exactly is this man? Why did Alan forget?

"I know that maybe Mr. Aland forgot about me," said the man, his name was Teddy Kamburgh, Aland saw from the small nameplate on the right chest. "Allow me to introduce myself again..." Pause. Teddy held out his hand. "I'm Teddy Kamburgh, chief bodyguard for the Hamilton family."

"Head bodyguard?" asked Aland, answered with a nod of the head.

Teddy just smiled formally. "I served as overseer for the safety of the Hamilton family in the London country area. Since Mr. Aland was small, I have kept the enemies of the Hamilton family from attacking. Now, Mr. Aland has grown up."
