Day Fifty-Five…

~~*****~~

Ethan locked himself up inside his room, ignoring everyone. He had no appetite so he didn't even touch his food.

"Young Master, please open the door. You have class today. Are you not going to school?" Butler Li kept knocking on his door.

"Your Dad is already waiting for you downstairs," he added.

Butler Li was worried about Ethan. Since yesterday, the young master was moody. He didn't go to the dining area for his dinner. He locked the door, not allowing anyone to disturb him. When Nathan entered the room using his spare key, the poor child already drifted off to sleep. His face had marks of dry tears.

'Sigh. What made my young master sad? If he continues like this, he might get sick.'

"Young Master? Are you awake?" Butler Li was still standing outside Ethan's room when Nathan arrived.

"Is he not responding to you?" Nathan asked Butler Li.

Butler Li shook his head. There was a look of dismay on his face. "Master, what happened to young master, Ethan? He cried a lot last night. He hadn't eaten his meal since last night."

Nathan crumpled his face while pursing his lips. He didn't answer Butler Li's question. He decided to threaten his son to get a reaction from him.

"Ethan. Open the door. Now. If you won't this door in five seconds, I will reprogram Riemc, Powy and Star_S."

It did not take long before Ethan opened the door and faced his father with his glaring eyes. "Don't you dare touch them!"

Nathan sized his son up from top to bottom. The young child was still wearing his clothes yesterday. "Take a bath now. I'll send you to school."

"No! I don't want to leave the house today," Ethan stubbornly said. He was showing his father his rebellious side.

"Okay. I will not force you to go to school. Why don't you come with me and visit your Miss Abi. There is an improvement in her health condition. She passed the critical stage and she might wake up soon." Nathan used Abigail, thinking that Ethan would be happy to hear the good news.

But to his surprise, Ethan's mood didn't change. He was acting differently as compared to before. "I don't want to go."

Nathan was taken aback for a moment. He didn't expect that Ethan would reject his invitation. This young boy was so fond of Abigail before. So why did he suddenly change?

"Although Jane is her sister, Abigail has nothing to do with your mother's death. Why are you treating her differently now? I thought you considered her as your second mother?" Nathan asked Ethan.

Butler Li didn't know what was going on. 'Who is Jane? Miss Abi's Sister? She has a sister?'

Meanwhile, Ethan remained tight-lipped. He had conflicting thoughts. He was still shaken by the fact Jane was the one who killed her biological mother. Of course he was hurt. But he also felt guilty. He was sorry for his biological mother because even though he learned the truth, he couldn't hate Jane completely. He was confused with his feelings.

"Is she going to be there in the facility?" Ethan asked his father. He was referring to Jane. He wondered if he would see Jane in the facility today.

"If you don't want to see her then I will forbid her from going to the facility. Don't worry, I will not allow her to see you and cross path with you… again." Nathan reassured him.

Ethan wanted to object. That's not what he meant. "No need to do that," Ethan promptly said. "I'm coming with you. Just wait for me. I'll just take a quick bath."

The young boy turned around and headed to his bathroom. Butler Li grabbed this opportunity to ask Nathan about Abigail and Jane.

"Master, how is Miss Abi? And who is Jane? I've never heard that she has a sister." 

Nathan glanced at Butler Li. He was aware that Butler Li and Abigail got closer for the past few months. So he understood why Butler Li was asking things related to Abigail.

"Abigail's condition is now stable. And Jane is Abigail's biological sister. We already found her father." Nathan shared this information with him.

Butler Li was so happy to hear that. "I'm glad to know that Miss Abi can be reunited with her family once she wakes up. Take good care of her, Master. Bring her to our mansion. I miss her already."

Nathan just nodded his head. 

Ten minutes later, Ethan was done changing into his clothes. He joined his father. Both of them proceeded to the facility. Ethan was quiet during the entire duration of the travel. He was assessing himself whether he was ready to face Jane again. He had to admit that he acted rudely. But he couldn't help it.

After he calmed down, Ethan regretted running away that day. He didn't know what Jane was thinking right now. 'Was she just acting kind because she felt guilty and sorry for me? She didn't want me to be her child… I guess, she just allowed me to call her Mom because of the guilt.' Ethan began to doubt Jane's sincerity toward him.

When the father and son duo reached the facility, they met Mr. Hiroshi and Dave. The two men never left the facility because they were waiting for Abigail to wake up.

Mr. Hiroshi's eyes brightened up when he saw Ethan again. "Ethan!" Mr. Hiroshi approached the young boy who was standing next to Nathan.

"Hello, Gramps!" Ethan politely greeted him.

Mr. Hiroshi couldn't take his eyes off the boy. He could see the resemblance between Ethan and Jane's younger self. "Ethan, you look similar to my daughter when she was still a child."

Nathan and Ethan just exchanged glances with one another. They didn't know how they would respond to Mr. Hiroshi's statement. They felt so awkward after Jane's name was mentioned. Then Ethan looked around, searching for Jane. For some unknown reason, he felt a little bit disappointed when he didn't see her.

  'Ethan, why are still looking for her. Stop doing that,' Ethan scolded himself inwardly.

With his amusement, Mr. Hiroshi picked up his old photo of Jane from his wallet and showed it to Ethan. "Look… this is how my daughter look like when she was still a child. What a coincidence. The two of you has a strong resemblance as if you are twins."

Both Nathan and Ethan were surprised when they saw Jane's photo when she was just four years old. Indeed, Ethan's features looked similar to her.

"If my daughter bears a son, I guess he will look like your twin brother. What a great coincidence right?" Mr. Hiroshi talked spontaneously. He became hyper when he saw Ethan. He was very fond of him.

Ethan subconsciously crumpled his face when he heard that. He felt a sudden pang of jealousy. If Jane would have a son then she would no longer care about him. She would love her biological son more than him.

They were still talking when Kazuki butted in. "Master! Are you excited to have a grandchild? Why don't we arrange a marriage between Jane and my son? He is arriving here today."

After Kazuki said those words, he was greeted by a cold sharp glare coming from a young boy.
