Berick's discovery.

"Babe, what do you mean?" Bryan cupped Mae's face in his hands as he asked worriedly. They had just ended the burial ceremony, he knew this was a bad time in her life but she spoke of something else. Mae looked into the eyes of her lover and fell back with regret. 'Sorry.' She wanted to say but withheld it back.

"Are you all ok?" Xie Yu who was approaching asked with a voice of concern. For them both, this was the worst moment. Miss Old Gindi rushed behind Xie Yu not forgetting Prince Ge who had grown an attachment to Mae close behind.

"What is wrong? Huh!" Miss Old Gindi was sorry for them but again felt embarrassed. Did they have to bring along their love issue here?

"Let's get to the car." Miss Old Gindi tagged them as she lifted Bryan. 'Let's get back first, this not a good impression of you two.' She pushed them to sit in one of the cars that had been parked, of course, the car was from Prince Ge's place.

"So, what is the problem with you two?"

Xie Yu was worried sick of her niece, and so was Old Gindi of her grandson.

"Is better we solve this now." Prince Ge chipped in. He had just followed behind and felt a responsibility to help them through.

"Don't even talk! ... You!" Bryan who had been forcing back his anger from erupting suddenly yelled. His finger trembled as he pointed it at the shocked Prince.

"Hey, calm down. What's the problem?" Xie Yu tried to calm him down as she held his hand down, and Miss Old Gindi did too.

"Get away from us!" Bryan got loose from Xie's grasp as he stood up to face William Ge. Mae was still lost in despair, not bothering the bulls.

"Bryan, hey! Bryan." Miss Old Gindi tried to warn her grandson but he had already provoked the prince.

"What is wrong with you!" Prince Ge angrily asked as Hao came running to them, with security behind.

"What is wrong?" Prince Ge questioned again but Bryan kept his silence, this was bad.

"Bryan,? Man is to error. We can solve this." Miss Old Gindi tried talking sense into him as Xie Yu couldn't hold his hand back anymore.

'BAP!' The sound of a fist crushing on William Ge's chest soared through the air as Prince Ge almost fell back clutching his chest with a groan. "Stay away!" Bryan yelled in his face ready to deliver another blow to destroy his appearance but Hao caught his arm twisting it behind his back instead.

"What's the wrong dude!" Hao angrily asked. The security now steps away after Prince Ge's command.

"Let go of him." Prince Ge commanded his cousin Hao Ge. "I don't hold any grudges with you." He added as he looked at Bryan's red face. "Let's not make this an issue, I will let go of you today." This was a clear warning in front of everyone.

With this all, prince Ge saw no need to hang around and headed back to the manor.

"Why did you do that?" Both Miss Old Gindi and Xie asked confused. "What did Prince Ge do to you?"

"You should ask her." Bryan pulled himself out. He did listen to Mae's confession earlier which was why he did been rash with the Prince.

"Mae, please talk to me." Xie Yu begged her." please."

"Aunt, I'm ok now," Mae said as she wiped her eyes with the back of her palm. She was pretending.

"What about Prince Ge?" Xie Yu insisted but Old Gindi shook her head, let it just end there.

She was right, there was no need to force her to say anything, after all, they were not alone.

Bryan looked around as he saw the field being departed, Mae will be leaving this afternoon too!

"Hey Brian, are you alright?" Miss Old Gindi shook him as he turned to face her irritated.

He had just spotted a woman among the crowd. Even from the distance, he could make out her well build body, I'm going to know who she is.

All thoughts about Mae now aside. He had learnt that Mae had given out her body just to get new information. This he told no one, but it was the end between him and Mae.

The truth Mae had told him he won't be able to handle was more than stupid.

Bryan ran after the crowd, if he had to move on, then he will move on immediately. "Hello," he greeted the woman in front of him. He knew he had left the rest behind, and Mae was watching this but he didn't care anymore.

"Are you talking to me?" The woman turned round to ask but both exclaimed silently once their eyes met.

"Abi?" ... "Bryan."...

The world now stopped rotating and everything happened in slow motion, only the two of them were not affected.

*****

"Are you guys alright?" Xie Yu asked once again. This same afternoon they had to be at the airport, they were running out of time. Bryan too had decided not to respond to them.

"Bryan?" Miss Old Gindi suddenly remembered something. "Bryan!" She shook him hard as she cried out for him to respond.

This was the one thing she had feared ever since. Who would inherit after her if Bryan gets lost completely?

"Wake up Bryan!" She shook him harder each time but Bryan just started laughing instead.

"Call the doctor!" Miss Old Gindi screamed at anyone who would hear and act.

Even Mae now had shaken out of her state and was now all but touched, she loved him madly. Even if he did cheat on her, she would rather die fighting to get him back.

'Prince Ge wanted to use me!' Mae remembered what had happened late last night. She broke down after seeing Bryan with someone else, but she now realized Bryan must have been telling her the truth. A tear ran down her cheek as she saw Hao Ge and one of the security try to guide him to the car, leaving for the capital.

"Please, save my grandson." Miss Old Gindi begged the driver who under the permission of his employer accepted to ride Bryan to St. Jude Hospital.

The car vanished under her gaze as she turned round to see Xie Yu sad. "We not going to be late. We have to hurry back to fetch our pieces of luggage."

"But I want to see him tonight." Mae cried.

"There is no time! First, we have to get back to Ge Manor! You will see him before we leave.!"

'Do I have to leave?' Mae weighed the benefits of living in the US but just the thought of life without Bryan made her decide to stay.

"I'm not going to US.!" She declared as Jake came along. Ever since he did learn of his real family, he had been busy getting introduced to his cousins and uncles.

"Please little rabbit, I know he will be ok. There is no more time left." Jake sounded caring but to Mae, his voice was wicked. 'Even you don't care about him but your welfare?!'

She knew Jake now had a business under his control, a manor and a large piece of land not to mention the hidden treasures.

"I'm not leaving. Not until I see him." Mae ignored them as she ran off to Hao Ge.

"Sela! Get back here!" Jake shouted back effortlessly.

"Aunt. What do we do now?" Xie Yu sighed as she had no appropriate answer to that.

"We are not leaving her behind." She said as they rushed to Hao Ge.

"Mae, think about your life. You can save him once you return from the US." Xie Yu tried to reason with Mae but realized this girl was one of those stubborn ones

"I don't want to leave him, aunt." Mae cried. Last night she had gone to Prince Ge's room only to be deceived. She had to use her brain to get Prince Ge off her, offering to be his woman after breaking up with Bryan. The maniac had been crazy all night and morning, full of joy and enthusiasm. At least he had listened to her and postponed his greed to feed on her.

'I need the money now. where is Prince Ge!' Mae looked around as she remembered Bryan had got into a fight with him.

"Let's get back to Ge manor, I need to change." Mae requested. Hao Ge was just the serviceman, waiting for Xie Yu to nod.

"Aunt? If we go to the US today? Will I still be able to come back after a week?" Mae suddenly asked Berick who appeared after his hide-driving Joe Ken's Toyota Fielder.

"Let's go, young mistress." He called out to Mae as he slammed the horn.

"I'm coming." Mae gladly rushed to set herself on the back seat as Berick without wanting to know of the rest rode away.

"Aren't you waiting for Jake and aunt?" Mae asked as she doubted Berick's action.

"They are right behind us," Berick answered as he accelerated.

"Uhm, can I ask you just one question?" Berick suddenly asked. It was only the two of them, no fear of the third party.

"Yes," Mae answered.

"Hope you will answer me truly." Berick not in a rush made her promise first.

"I will answer honestly, I promise."

"Ok. I just want to know exactly what's going on between you and that mouthy prince." Berick asked directly showing his opinion of Ge.
