While Ethan and Lucas were talking inside the room, Mikel was waiting for his brother to let him in. As he was waiting, someone approaches him and when he look who it is he saw Leo, the personal assistant of Ethan. Mikel notice the small paper bag that the omega was carrying, it was the same bag that was being used by their jewelry stores Seeing that he then guess what is inside it is most probably the ring that Ethan had asked to be made.
"Good Afternoon Sir Mikel" greeted Leo who just arrived.
"Oh! Leo, you're here! When did you arrive here in country J?" asked Mikel. He knew that Ethan had instructed his assistant to do some business in-country J. The omega wanted to make sure that he would be able to have some connection with a few known businessmen in the country. He had instructed Leo to investigate those businessmen if they are eligible for them to become business partners in the future.
"Three days ago, Mr. Louis asked me to do a few more things before I leave the country. He also asked me to give this to you Sir Mikel, it is for CEO Ethan."
"for Ethan? OH! right, I must have forgotten to bring it with me. Thanks, I'll give it to him later but for now, how are things going on the company?"
"The company is doing great and we are set for the auction that will happen next month. Mr. Louis is done with all the designs of all the jewelry that will be sold during the auction."
"right, the fundraising auction, so Louis is done coming up with new designs, great! Ethan wanted that auction to be like a stroke of good luck for the next few years of the business as well as to be able to help with the orphanage and hospitals that were chosen by him."
"Yes, I have already given him a list of hospitals and orphanages but it looks like he didn't choose the hospital from that list. However, for the orphanage, he had chosen one of the few that was being helped by your family sir Mikel."
"oh! actually I suggested it since that was the orphanage that was assigned to me ever since I reach the age of 20. In our family, we are tasked to help one orphanage of our choice when we reach 20, so I asked Ethan to place that orphanage for our fundraising."
"I see…by the way, where is CEO Ethan?"
"He's inside the room with my brother, he got a bit of bad news so my brother is comforting him now. Anyway, I still got to tell them something so I'll check if we can go in now" Mikel was about to knock at the door when the door suddenly opened and his brother was right there in front of him.
"Brother…are you done comforting Ethan?" asked Mikel to Lucas who did not answer him instead turned his back and just went back to his seat. That act made Mikel somewhat annoyed but he is used to it so he just went inside the room together with Leo and Dr. Inoue who was still outside with Mikel.
"I'm sorry for my actions a while ago, I'm calm now so Mikel, I heard from Lucas that you got something to say about the current situation at our neighbor's house," said Ethan. The omega no longer sees his family as a family since they have caused him so much suffering plus they took his children.
"well, our neighbors are now aware that you are missing they are now in an uproar. I heard from one of our bodyguards outside that someone asked if they have seen you pass by with a maid." Answered Mikel.
"and what did they your guard say?"
"*smirk* they will never know that you are inside this house and we have already instructed our guards to tell other people that they never saw you or Tia. They will also tell other people that we are all new to the area and we are not familiar with anyone around. This is true since we all just arrived here a week ago and no one was here not until two weeks ago. Only a few maids and guards were assigned here to clean up the whole house since we will be arriving."
"I see, Lucas, you said that we will meet someone in three days, is that person going here?"
"No, we will go to the hotel that I stayed at before coming here and there he will meet us together with our common friend. Thus, Dr. Inoue here will make sure that you are well enough to leave this house. After we settle our business here in your country together we will leave and go to country A" Lucas had planned everything that he needed to do in-country J. He already asked Daniel to line up all the meetings that he will be attending along with Mikel and Ethan, however, seeing that Ethan is known to the country they will not let him attend with them. That is only to hide his identity, Mikel will face their future clients while Ethan can just focus on his recovery. The two alphas would just inform him about all of it but if worst comes to worst they will introduce Ethan under a condition of not letting anyone know about him.
"country A…does that mean that I won't be able to see my children?"
"*sigh* Dr. Aoki, As far as I know, you are a doctor in the hospital that both I and Dr. Kimura works at which is in country A. View it as a new start in that country, you will one day be together with your children. Trust Lucas and try to live your life as you wait for the arrival of your twins, what do you think?" asked Dr. Inoue who wanted to give courage to Ethan who seems to be so lost as his twins were not by his side. He was anxious that his children will grow up together with Elise and worst won't even recognize him as their biological mother. He does trust Lucas who will do as he promises but will he be able to wait for that time and just live his life?
"Ethan…my promise stands as long as your twins aren't by your side. So just do what Dr. Inoue says and remember what I told you a while ago. Once you are at the top even your family won't be able to do anything to you." Lucas places his hand above the hand of omega as he says what is in his mind. He can see that Ethan was having second thoughts thinking that going to another country would make him lose his twins more.. Thus, Lucas made sure that he assures the omega that his promise will not be broken.
