Travis was in his house watching the news when he received a call from CEO Douglass. He picked it up. “Hello.”

“We’re at your gate.”

“How did you know I’ve left Mrs. Morrison’s house?” Travis asked, surprised.

CEO Douglass was silent and only sighed.

Travis thought it was CEO Moore who followed CEO Douglass, so he dropped the TV remote and said, “I’m coming.”

He went out, thinking they were here to ask him if he had gotten a wife from the Morrisons’ family, and he was thinking whether he should lie or tell them the truth. But since they’re his friends, he had no choice but to tell them the truth.

Once Travis opened the gate, Uncle Warren and CEO Douglass, along with hundreds of bodyguards in black suits, puzzled him.

How did CEO Douglass recognize Uncle Warren, the uncle who took care of him after he was told his parents had had an accident?

Uncle Warren refused to pay his university fees, which made him lose the chance to study well. Travis took two steps back inside and held the

    Travis quickly struggled into the kitchen to eat rice and struggled to open the fridge. Looking for something for strength. His arms and legs shook, and so did his lips. He quickly held fridge as the room bent in his eyes. With force, he went back to the sitting room and picked up his phone. He clicked it, but the phone was faulty and didn't work, no matter how hard he tried. Is he going to die for real? He could only think, but he couldn’t talk. This moment demands he use remaining vigor, open exit so guards provide saving. He made it to the gate, but opening it became another problem. And the worst was that he couldn’t shout.If the Grand System were a person, and if Travis could survive this suffering, he would forever retaliate. “Travis, can you hear me? It is Donna, your lovely sister. Travis!!!”Travis didn’t know where the loud voice was coming from, but he was sure it was coming from heaven since he knew his sister had died with his parents.“Travis!! I miss you. Please,

    Travis showered and wore his old clothes before moving out. As he opened the gate, he saw many bodyguards standing at his gate. “Young master,” one said. And everyone bowed down to him.Travis looked around. CEO Douglass and Uncle Warren weren’t there. Then why are they here? It baffled him because he doesn’t hire a security guard. So he asked them, “Why are you here?”“It is a command from the old Mr. Hernandez, sir. He wants you to be under excellent protection,” one said.“I want you all to leave here. I don’t need any protection.”The bodyguard knelt, and the rest did the same. “It is a command we cannot disobey. Please, we need to follow you anywhere you are going, too.”Travis became worried. What sort of nonsense is this? If they followed him, Stella would know who he was. He stepped back in and closed the gate, heading towards the room. He sat in the sitting room, praying that the old Mr. Morrison to catch Stella before she sneaked out. After thirty minutes, he received a c

    Travis laid down that night and couldn't sleep. He was worried. Worried if Stella was feeling better.He didn't want to worry, but if only he knew how. He forgot he was on a soft blanket and that the room was cool enough. He had forgotten there was coffee on the table and that he was becoming handsome day by day.Suddenly, he remembered Stella had a phone. He swiftly switched on his phone and couldn't wait for it to load. He tapped his head. How could he forget Stella had a phone?He scrolled through his contacts several times but couldn't see Stella's number. Then he remembered he had forgotten to save her phone number.He tapped his head several times, feeling pain tingling in his belly. How dumped he was. He has Chloe's but not Stella's number.[What is going wrong? I couldn't read your thoughts to know since you had already hindered me. I would like to help if you wish anyway.]Grand System makes a smiling symbol in the air before Travis."Can you help me search for Stella's phone

    Travis locked the door and walked to the kitchen to eat something. Something sweet to distract himself from what Uncle Warren told him.When he returned to the sitting room, he saw ten missed calls from CEO Douglass, and another call came from him, but Travis ignored it like a wrong number and then switched off his phone.The thought that his parents and his sister had died because of his grandfather kept repeating itself in his head. He focused on the news showing on his TV to distract himself from those thoughts finally so that he wouldn’t shed tears again. At the Hernandez family mansion, Uncle Warren stood reporting what Travis said to the old Mr. Hernandez. “I made a mistake. If I had known this is how it’s going to be, I wouldn’t have made you guys go through the hardship. But anyway, it is for the best. Travis didn’t know that many of my bodyguards were always monitoring him to keep him safe from all our enemies. This is the time to let him know the news about his parents an

    “Stop crying. They must not catch me with you,” Travis said. “Be strong. Okay?”Stella nodded and cleaned her tears from her heavy eyes.Travis put back the fake moustache and made Stella look at his eyes. “Promise me you will eat and take these drugs.”“Do you want to leave me now?” Worry lingered on her face.“I will make sure we meet again. Please make sure you eat and take the drugs I gave you. Promise me so that my heart would find peace.”Stella cleaned another dripping tear. “Alright, I promise.”“I love you.” Travis made her drop her hands off him. “I love you too,” Stella said, and was about to hug him again, but he stopped her, and glanced at himself in the big mirror near Stella’s bed.Travis redressed himself so that the Morrisons’ family won’t identify him. He unlocked the door, pulled the door open, and hurried his steps to the main door.He met another doctor with the confused Morrison family in the sitting room, but he didn’t stop.
