After the heartful laugh they try to calm down when they notice the annoyance on Mirage's still pale face. Don Augustus cleared his throat to make it known that they needed to get serious. It's been a while since they started to talk to each other but they still haven't introduced themselves. Nicolo then speaks in a very professional and charismatic way." Anyway, I'm Nicolo Esquibel. The current CEO of Esquibel Group of Companies. I'm your eldest and the most handsome cousin you'll ever have. "" Okay. "Travis tried not to laugh again from the uninterested look and response Mirage gave Nicolo." I'm Dr. Travis Esquibel Williams. A resident neurosurgeon in this hospital.

Manila, PhilippinesIt's been a month already. But Elven's still can't accept the reality. His family is gone. Forever. He's alone now. And with that thought, tears pour down again. He thought there were already none. But it seems he still has a lot more tears to cry.He didn't know how much would be left for him until he cry his heart out. Maybe he should call someone but he doesn't want to bother them because he knows they are all busy with their lives. Besides, they wouldn't want to listen to him anyway. They wouldn't understand him.

Does everyone need to tell you again and again before you can understand? No one in your family can live here and that's final! "Angelique can't really stop herself even when Elven's already present. Her patience has dried up a long time
