Chapter 104 - Identity Unknown

"What did you say is his name?",Yoo Shiro asked with his narrowed eyes.

"Sir,his name is Yu Seok. He seems to be a senior student at the university. He is good in his studies but seems to be a little introvert and is known to not talk to many people.His major is business and minor is photography and that is how he seems to have become friends with Miss Xie..We are not focusing on him because the other two people are more important to find out who this man is and how is he related to Miss Xie. We believe the person that resembles you is Miss Xie Eun's husband since he had been with her at night.The CEO who is her mentor is known to be unsociable and arrogant so naturally the husband is mostly the target.."

As the guard continued to talk,he realized that the young master had zoned out..This was the first time something like this had happened so the guard was at a loss whether to continue..

It was only after a few minutes that Yoo Shiro ordered,"Leave the husband and the mentor aside for now.I want more information on Yu Seok."

The guard was a little confused at this order so he dared to say,"But sir,that person seems to be the simplest of all the people related to Miss Xie.."

Yoo Shiro narrowed his eyes at the guard and said,"Really?Is he that simple?Then I want all his information from his place of birth to his last many years.In an hour.Understood?And if it is not on my desk then you better be prepared for a severe punishment."

The guard gulped and realized that he had indeed crossed his boundaries and offended the young master.So he bowed and escaped.However,not once did he wonder that he would fail in this mission..

Yoo Shiro walked to the window and he looked out at the wide rolling green plains outside the mansion. "Yu Seok." It had been so long since he had heard this name. They had assumed him to be dead for so long.The crushing weight he had carried for so long,for the loss of his brother suddenly felt as if it would ease.Would he really get redemption if Seok-a returned? Would he forgive him?

A far away look entered his eyes as he thought back to those horrible days when they had been kidnapped. He had failed as an elder brother to protect his younger one..He wondered if Seok hated him for it..But even if he was lost,why did he not return?He remembered his name so he should have remembered his identity...But the coincidence was too great..A man appeared that he closely resembled him and who also had the same name as his assumed to be dead brother.."

Yoo Shiro walked to the bar,poured himself a drink and pondered the move that the fates had thrown at him.He tried to imagine what it would be like meeting his brother.Did he have a good life after being away from them? Was he able to have a normal childhood that he had always craved? But if that was the case why was the once extrovert and outgoing Seok perceived as shy and unwelcoming in university. 

A little while later, a sweating guard stood at the door as he prayed for himself. He gave a timid knock on the door and entered on the orders from inside.

"Sir?"

Yoo Shiro turned back from his musing and looked at the guard.A wry smile graced his face when he saw the usual posture of the guard broken.."So what have you found out about Yu Seok?"

The guard cursed his big mouth,his sad fate and breathed deeply before answering,"Nothing,sir.."

Yoo Shiro who had just gained hope was even more intrigued at this. So someone had the power to stop his people from getting any details? Ironically,he wondered if it was his own brother who would dare to put a wrench in his plans.."Tell me.."

"Sir, this person came to the University about two years ago.Withbhos perfect credentials,he was considered a transfer student and given special preference.This resulted in his name being touted about and he is said to be good looking , this became instantly popular among the female students.However,after many beauties were rejected, he was named unsociable and some even wondered over his sexual preferences.But soon he was seen befriending Miss Xie so it was assumed that the two were a couple who had yet to announce their relationship. Everything matches on the surface but when we checked into the University database, we were not able to find the person.His previous records are all sealed by the Army and he seems to be related to someone from within. We checked his picture but that happens to be the same as the student after him in enrollment number.So naturally his form has been tampered with so that it would look like a simple mistake. So though the person seems simple, his past is deep and hidden.Whoever he is, he is concealed deep in the shadows.But we think we have found a side profile of his and he does look remarkably like you.."

With that he put forward a photo. There behind a couple posing happily for the camera was a man with high cheekbones and a straight nose. It was a matter of chance that the picture had bee found by them because Miss Xie had been in the news recently.

Yoo Shiro picked up the second and latest picture he had of his brother and without giving a reaction muttered,"Hmm..Show me Miss Xie Eun.."

The guard pulled out his phone and brought out the picture of the girl that could now be considered his only lead to his brother. He took the phone and his heart skipped a beat when he saw the beauty on the screen .The picture was from the night when I'd run had dressed up for the grand ball and her beauty had been highlighted the most..Yoo Shiro almost felt an urge to check if such a beauty really existed.

Controlling his expression with difficulty,he ordered, get someone to keep an eye on this girl and I want every move reported. Tell me more about her."

"Sir, Miss Xie is the current heiress of Lu Enterprises.She was a major in photography but she would be sitting for her exams this week to change majors from photography to business.This seems to be her requirement to inherit Lu Enterprises. It is rumored that Lady Lu has targetted her because the girl had had a country upbringing and also cannot be controlled by the chairwoman like her other grand daughter."

"Tell me about the husband."

The guard once again hesitated before beginning,"Sir, here is the thing.Nobody knows who Miss Xie married and when. Not even anyone in her own hometown is aware of this.Most people seemed to believe that Miss Xie was engaged to Mr Si Jing but he was a spy planted by Old woman Lu.After, Miss Xie applied to become the heiress, she discarded Mr Si Jing so harshly that everyone believes that she too had toyed with the man, biding her time. But only one person can make everything clear and that is miss Xie herself.We are waiting for your orders before we approach the girl and question her.We also need to handle the old woman as she had been pestering her with questions."

Yoo Shiro thought carefully and answered,"Tell the old woman that a life has been lost to pay her debt. So if she still wants to claim the favour,she better have the patience to let us handle everything or if she is in such a hurry, she can do it herself. Regarding Miss Xie, he looked down at the picture again,"do you think it will be easy to approach her?She will be surrounded by body guards.There is only one way we can see her and that is me..Make arrangements to distract her mentor and Yu Seok.I will take his place and then everything will be clear.Alpha Industries has a big project lined up in Country D,don't they? Contact our people there as tell them to create some obstacles for the time being. Tell the to not cooperate until the CEO himself appears. And keep a few ofournspies there to photograph the CEO when he gets there.You may go for now."

Yoo Shiro felt a thrill pass through him and he was barely able to stand still. He had a hunch..that he the CEO and his brother Yu Seok were the same person..It was going to be a good ride...
