16 Chapter 16: Help me get my fiancee back (1/2)

After ken parked the car in front of Ander's house, he got down to open the door for Novie but the girl was too fast, she already ran to her house.

Ken sighed, Novie has been avoiding him since last night. He walks to his home when he realized that Novie was not ready to talk about their relationship.

He pinned the key to the keyhole when suddenly, he noticed a shadow from behind; he turned around and saw Brent

His lips were tightly closed while clenching his fist.

”what is it?” he asked.

There was a moment of silence before Brent unclenched his fist.

”Yesterday, I was thinking why you looked so familiar, I thought it was because of the news but no, I've seen you somewhere before.” Ken eyebrow rose and opened the door.

”come in” he widened the door and let him enter.

”you can sit. I will need to change my clothes” he went to the room and changes his clothes.

While drying his hair, he remembered what his sister said. Something about Novie's brother and as far as he knows. Novie only has one brother, and that's Brent

He twitched his lips thinking that today might be a good time to ask him what happened to him five years ago

He opened the door and saw Brent sitting on the couch.

”Hey you all right,” he asked and went to the refrigerator. He grabbed two cans of beer and handed him one.

”yes” Brent answered while opening the beer

”what were you saying earlier?” he asked, he crossed his legs while his back slouched on the couch.

”do you know the blue dragon organization?” Ken narrowed his eyes.

”Yes. I was the boss before my sister dismantled it” he was about to drink his beer when Brent suddenly leaned forward and hug him

His eyes widened, (wait. I want your sister, not you) his mind screamed inside.

”boss, finally I see you in person” it shocked ken. He was not expecting for anyone from the organization to meet especially not Novie's brother

Ken's heart jerked, thinking that Brent might not like him to be around Novie, he had made thousands if enemy waiting for revenge, and if Novie chooses to be with him, she can be in danger

”ahm... Brent” he pushed his body. The man sat back on the chair and stared at him with teary eyes.

(What the hell) it surprised him to see a huge man with wet eyes

”you're a legend boss, a ruthless and clever. A true boss” Brent proudly said but those words shivered his skin.

He hadn't told Novie about him being the boss of a syndicate, but he knows she has an idea since Anders sent her signals.

”I was... but I have changed” he gave him an awkward smile.

”that's a shame boss,” Brent replied with disappointment.

”So what happened after that?” ken asked pertaining about the member.

Brent strengthened and smile.

”we formed a small group by ourselves. But after some months all the evidence of the corruption and killing spreads out. A lot of members got sent to jail, and some were killed.”

Ken gulped. He was not expecting that small members suffered because of his decision. Blue Dragon was the most powerful among the three and it's all because of him. He knows who and when to kill the enemy.

”I didn't know the aftermath of my decision. I am sorry if you lose your brother” Ken apologized to him. All the members in the organization called each other brothers and treated one.

”that's fine. But can I ask why did you leave the organization?” Brent asked with curiosity

Sadness clouded Ken's face, thinking how many years he had wasted waiting for Novie when she actually left for a reason.

He sighed. ”My sister wanted to cut all of our underground business, so I moved to Paris, I was supposed to leave with my fiancee but she left me” he replied. He looked at Brent who had a shock painted on his face.

”That woman must be crazy to leave you, boss, who is she? She must have lost some screw in her brain to leave such a perfectly fine man like you” Ken wanted to laugh by his words. (He's your sister) he thought.

The phone suddenly rings, when Ken checked it, it was his sister. He ignored it and turned his attention to Brent but the phone rang once again.

with a crinkled nose, he pressed the decline button.

Minutes later, his phone buzzed, and it was a message from his sister.
