Led away.

"What is wrong?t" Bryan shouted as he demanded to know. Right there, Mae stood with a knife in hand while Abi had a pan ready in the air.

'They shouldn't fight!' Bryan had thought this was never to happen but it now seemed wrong.

"Mae?" This was the first person Bryan flipped over as he snatched the knife away. Xie Yu just stood a meter away, displeased with Bryan. 'Mae should just stab Bryan!'

Xie Yu was about to force Maeia into action but Mrs Yumaa walked in.

"Abi?" She who was facing the door saw the angered face. "What is wrong?" Her question just like Bryan's made her sob.

The day had just launched yet this was the situation and mood. Even after Bryan realised, that someone was still going to do the same dangerous act.

"You both should relax!" Mrs Yumaa raged as she felt Abi trembling with anger.

"What is the matter." Mrs Yumaa finally asked as Bryan too succeeded in getting Mae under control.

This was an odd hour in the mansion, and a need for quick attention was essential. Xie Yu had just stood by, entertaining the two to fight.

'Did Xie Yu force them into this?' Mrs Yumaa looked back at Xie Yu who was visibly annoyed by their interruption.

"Xie Yu!" Mrs Yumaa couldn't take it longer as she shouted, blaming the pretentious lady. "How can you entice them to kill each other!"

Her accusation of Xie Yu was vile.

"What are you talking about? How can you say such a thing!" Xie Yu was good at pretending.

The anger on her face was growing as she realised Bryan had a spirit protecting him. If not, how was Bryan this lucky to be well and good at this hour?

"You should have tried to stop them!" Mrs Yumaa corrected Xie Yu who just turned round showing her bare back.

"I couldn't stand between them, both had weapons"

Xie Yu left. It was true, she had no chance of stopping the two furious girls, and she might have accidentally gotten harmed too.

"What's the matter with you two!" Bryan heard the question he did want to ask.

Mrs Yumaa was now standing next to Abi. The furiousness had long come to an end and now Abi was weak in tears.

"She pulled my hair from behind!" .l

Mae heard that and immediately responded. "You are the one who called me a kid!"

Hehe see so these two are fighting over Bryan; it must be. Mrs Yumaa had now long understood the situation.

"This is not how you should solve the issue!" Mrs Yumaa was not willing to listen to anything more from these two. She had enough of them, the mere sight of the fight was enough to get her annoyed.

"I'm going back outside, Bryan... Look after them. " Mrs Yumaa decided to leave.

Something about Xie Yu was not right. Before Old Missus's death, Xie Yu was a good lady, obedient and kind. What happened after was a mystery.

Outside the mansion, three men whom Mrs Yumaa knew from previous encounters were quietly enjoying a bottle of whisky.

'Xie Yu also let them in!'. Mrs Yumaa now had no choice but to again inform Joe Ken of what had happened here.

Something any time might happen here, Mrs Yumaa felt the hairs on the back of her head erect as Inspector Joe Ken's number failed to receive the message.

After making a call, the server responded with a sorry tone saying the number dialled was out of service.

Looking back at the three dudes, she saw them stand up to Xie Yu's call and walk into the mansion. This was not good! Those guys had an evil presence all over them.

Mrs Yumaa had no choice but to hurry back inside the mansion now with a guard beside her.

If anything was to go wrong, the guards outside would surely know and now surround the place.

And so, the suspicion against Xie Yu doubled as Mrs Yumaa saw the thick mist of wickedness inside the room. Xie Yu sat across the chairs facing the three who still had the whisky to share in no hurry.

"Feel at home " Xie Yu gladly said as she rose to leave, she was going to change to go out. Something she also said to the three men so they are patient, a virtue they already had.

Upstairs, Bryan sat between the two girls. They had calmed down under his touch and agree to obey him.

"I don't want to see such a thing again!" Bryan was being strict for the first time. He saw the urgent need to be so, and show them who was the head. He had to let them know that he was the one to decide who got to remain too.

"Do you two understand?" Bryan asked. He was now standing, towering over the two girls who sat on the bed beside each other.

"For me, I won't accept to be looked down upon!" Mae retorted even after agreeing to Bryan's coalition. Her nature was always stubborn.

"I have no issue with you!" Abi quickly stood her stance as she added, "I'm sorry."

Bryan who had least expected Abi to be the first to beg forgiveness ran out of words.

"Is ok." He sighed as Mae angrily stood up saying that Abi was pretentious.

"She is just pretending! I know her better!"

This made Bryan angry as he found the lost words and yakked back at Mae.

"Don't repeat that! If you ever just forget about me, !." Bryan warned as Mae who had always been their beloved got shocked.

For the first time, Bryan did threaten to leave her alone.

"Fine, is good I know now!" Mae did cool down but created a hullabaloo as she paced out in search of her Aunty.

"Mae! Babe!" Bryan wanted to run after Mae but Abi held him back.

"Let her go." Abi menacingly soothed.

If Bryan would just regain some more memory, he would have remembered what Abi had done to him ago.

Leaving him alone along the highway for an older wealthy man. The same phrase of letting her go had been used then, by the group of sympathisers back in those days.

"Ok." Bryan stood his ground as Abi hugged him close tightly.

"I love you so much," Abi repeated as Bryan now accepted her and hugged her back.

"I love you too darling." He responded as he let Abi relax on his chest. The thought of just having Abi alone was tormenting.

Bryan felt heavy as the second grasp was missing. He had realised he loved Mae more than Abi. But he just couldn't say such a thing but relax his mind with Abi.

"Babe. What's wrong?" Abi asked as Bryan got reluctant to her spell. They were just hugging and cuddling nothing more.

"Is nothing." Bryan denied the thought of speaking out his thoughts. He had already begun missing Mae. The reason why Abi was not so affected by him might be because of her previous action against his love.

This Bryan didn't know of but Abi just kept praying for Bryan never to remember her old errors.

"Ok. You must be tired." Abi pushed him to the bed as she offered to keep him company.

"Abi?" Bryan finally couldn't hold back.

This shocked Abi who didn't expect to be called by name.

"I have to look after Mae." Bryan sat upright on the bed as he made Abi understand.

"I can't just sleep, what if she harms herself?" Bryan wondered as Abi gave up on the thought of keeping him to herself.

"Then go and search for her." Abi let Bryan out. He didn't even look back at Abi as he began the search right after stepping through the door.

*****

"Mae! Where are you? Mae!"

Bryan searched for his love all over the house, calling out for her without minding others.

Mae angrily walked her way to Xie Yu. By a good chance, Xie Yu had not left her room and was still trying on some new pair of German dresses she had purchased a day before.

"Hey, what happened Mae!" Xie Yu turned round in fear as she saw it was only Mae who had burst in without a knock. Her face was ashed and her voice was stuck in her throat.

"Mae, did they harm you?" Xie Yu immediately left her post before the mirror to hug Mae as she led her to the couch in her room. "Please calm down my dear. What happened?"

After a short narrative from Mae, Xie Yu lightened up even after getting to know that Mae had failed to drug Bryan.

"Let me help you like my daughter." Xie Yu offered as a nasty thought occurred in her mind.

"Pretend to be sorry and lead Bryan out of the mansion, I will be waiting at the back." Xie Yu combed the girl as she spoke.

"If you want to know the truth, bring Bryan to me, I need to show him something, you too should be there."

Mae thought over it as placed her hand in her pocket. Gosh, she had dropped the last part of the potion somewhere.

"Ok, aunty." Mae agreed as she tried to think of where she might have dropped the potion.

"Good girl. " Xie Yu praised as she made Mae happy. "Bryan will love you completely after this."

Girls needed just a little twist for the strings to take control.

"Mae! Where are you? Mae!" Bryan's frequent search came to a stop as Xie Yu now pushed Mae to secretly lead her mate away.
