When Ryan arrived at work, his assistant, Lawrence Scott, came to him and reported, "Sir, there's an emergency meeting. The shareholders were summoned and they are waiting for you."

Ryan furrowed his eyebrows as he asked, "What's the meeting about?"

"I'm not sure... no one is saying anything," Lawrence replied.

Ryan wondered why the shareholders were suddenly creating trouble after being quiet for many years. It had been a while since they called for an emergency meeting. Usually, this occurs when some of the members are unhappy about something. Unease crept into Ryan and settled in his stomach. He had a bad feeling about this but he walked confidently to the conference room.

However, he stilled when he saw someone he wasn't expecting to see there.

Jason. His half-brother.

Jason Anderson Kingsley was seated at the far end of the long mahogany table, looking smug. He was dressed in a tailored navy suit, leaning back in his chair with a smirk playing on his lips.

The man looked like he had come to create trouble and he was enjoying it.

Ryan narrowed his eyes at the young man. Now that he knew who he was, he could finally recall why he felt Jason looked familiar. Unlike Ryan who took after Charles and Miles, Jason took after his mother, Celeste Anderson.

In Ryan's mind, Jason had been planning this with his mother for some time. Perhaps dating Lora was part of the plan too, luckily that never went far.

After taking a seat at the head of the table, Ryan's jaw tightened as he glanced at Jason.
