[Meeting An Old Friend]
Jayson's parents including Jayson, Ian and Julia stormed out of the house.
Ellie, Elsa and the rest all waved their goodbyes at them since it was a family issue and it is none of their business. Although, Jayson promised them that he would give them some feedback.
They drove to Ian's house with Ian driving before them, leading them. He was thinking about what happened all of a sudden. It seemed like a shock to him. Just a day, he saw his look alike that is most likely his twin. As he got to his house, he honked the car towards the gate. The gate was pushed open by a man and they all drove in. Before Ian could get down from the car, Jayson's dad already did.
“How dare him?!” He seethed as he marched towards the entrance. Jayson's mother was worried.
“Stanley!!” Cole yelled out as Stanley climbed down the stairs with a glass of wine in his hands.
“Long time, no see.” Stanley said with a smirk, playing on his lips. He looked just how he was years ago. Just the little grey hairs that was making him look even more manly. Cole scowled at him in rage.
“I was informed that the my mole I planted in your company already confessed that it was me. And am ready!” Stanley said and walked towards them.
“Oh, hi, Isabella.” He greeted, waving at Jayson's mom. She frowned her face and looked away.
“How dare you?” Cole sneered as he tried to hit Stanley.
“How dare I?” Stanley asked, letting out a dry laugh.
“Wait, is it the part of taking your son or the part of embezzling your funds to take care of him?” He asked.
“Tsk, Tsk, tsk. Have you ever fulfilled your part of the deal?!” He yelled at him. Cole was shaking in anger.
“I only thought of a way to make you realize it.” He stated and took a sip out of his wine. Jayson and the rest all stared at what was happening.
“By taking my child away from me?” Isabella asked. Stanley smiled at her and nodded.
“You have not changed, Isa.” He said and sent a wink in her direction. Cole lunged at him but Stanley quickly shove him away.
“Dad! Stop this!” Jayson yelled at the both of them. They all stopped and looked at the boys.
“We are brothers?” Ian questioned as he looked at his dad, Stanley.
“Yes.” Stanley answered and looked away.
“You took me away from them?” Ian queried again. Stanley breathed out.
Cole Smith and Stanley Meyers have been good friends and also business partners. But then there was this deal which required both of them approval and they gave it. But things did not go as planned and they lost a huge profit. Cole tried explaining things to Stanley but he was not getting it. Stanley decided to take revenge and he took his child. Isabella had just delivered a twins at the time. Stanley paid one of the nurse to get the child and that was how Ian was separated from his parents. Stanley ran off to Korea with his wife and they lived there. Cole tried his best in trying to reach him but it was not reachable.
“I knew I had two boys that day.” Isabella cried out, Cole turned to look at his wife and pulled her into an hug.
“Now take back your mole and give me back my funds.” Cole fumed at him. Stanley scoffed at him.

“So, I guess we are brothers.” Jayson said, facing Ian who only stared at him. Like he was wondering, how he could have someone that looked exactly like him.
“Yes.” Ian answered.
“Wow, so I have got two Jaysons, right?” Helen chimed in. They turned to look at her with an amused smile on their lips.
“Yes.” Jason responded.
“Then do well to tell him to watch his back.” She joked menacingly and ran off to her room. Ian turned to look at Jayson.
“And what does she mean by that?” He asked with skepticism.
“She is one hell of a trouble. Good luck in relating with her.” Jayson said with a smirk.
“Hmm, yeah, those twins…”
“What happened to them?” Jayson cut him off.
“What are their names?” He asked. Jayson raised an eyebrow at his question.
“Elsa and Ellie.” He replied.
“Ohh, okay. Thanks.” Ian said.
“Why did you ask for their names?” Jayson asked.
“And why do you sound jealous?” Ian asked as he stared at him with scrutiny. Jayson looked away and snorted.
“Nothing.” He replied while Ian chuckled.
“Ian darling.” Yeon Hwa's voice came through.
“Fvck! I have to go to my room. See you tomorrow morning and also tell her to go to bed.” He rushed the words and hurried up the stairs. He definitely cannot deal with her trouble this night. Jayson chuckled.
“Where is Ian?” She asked.
“He told me to tell you to go to bed.” Jayson answered dismissively and went to his room also. Yeon Hwa released a snort and grumbled incoherently.
**Next Morning**
Jake felt something beside him. He slowly opened his eyes and was surprised to see that it was his mom that was sitting so close to him. He closed his eyes for a few seconds, thinking it was his imagination or he was dreaming.
“You are not dreaming, Jake.” She said. Jake opened his eyes and slowly sat up. He rubber his eyes and stared at her.
“And why are you here?” He asked.
She smiled a little and said. “Change your clothes and come downstairs.” She exited his room. He pulled himself up with a groan and got into some baggy trousers and singlet before moving out.
He walked down the stairs with his hands dipped in his pockets and his hair slightly disoriented.
“Why do you want to see me?” He asked with a gruff voice. She released a deep breath turning towards him.
“I know I should not have done it but I need to get the out of me.” She said as if she was frustrated and haunted by the thoughts.
“I now have another family and when I say that, I mean I have another kids and husband.” She announced, expecting him to blow hot at her. But he did not. He only blinked his eyes and gazed at her.
“Y-You…” She trailed off. Not getting what his silence meant.
“Wondering why I am not fazed?” He asked and walked towards her.
“Mom, I grew up alone, lived alone, taught myself principles alone, did everything concerning my life alone. What do you think? That I did not know you already have a family?” He chuckled and scoffed.
“You have always been a bad mother to me. You ignored, abandon and did not care about me, even one bit.” He yelled at her. “When you know you will not take care of me as a mother, why have me?” He shouted at her, throwing the glass jug close to him on the floor. He was angry. At himself. At her. And at His dad.
“I hate to tell you this but I hate you. Sometimes, I wonder if you were my mother. And dad, I hate him too. Just leave me and go be with your family. I have been doing good without you.” With that said, he hurried up the staircase and slam the door of his room shut. She flinched a little bit and tears rolled down her face.
She lost him already.

Everyone darted their gaze between Jayson and Ian.
“Gosh, I actually thought that Jasper was joking when he said that Jayson had a twin.” Jace spoke up.
“Anyways, I am Jace and this is Jeremy.” He said, pointing to Jeremy who only had his eyes on one thing or rather one person. Everyone traced his gaze and they saw Yeon Hwa standing their, typing away on her phone.
“What is her name?” Jeremy asked, bewildered. Ian cleared his throat noisily. Jeremy looker at him. Ian walked towards him and brought his face close to his ear.
“Stare at her again and you will eat your balls.” He threatened and Jeremy gulped. He looked away. Jace started laughing. Jasper only chuckled.
“And Ian, this is Jasper. He is dating your stepsister. You can hit, kick, punch him.” Jace joked. Julia blushed as she heard this.
“Nice to meet you.” He extended his hand and they shook hands.
“Ian, I will love to do some shopping.” Yeon Hwa said, trying to gain his attention. He groaned and walked towards her.
“See you guys later.” He waved at them.
“Must you always be so troublesome.” He muttered.
She giggled. “For as long as I get time to spend with you and besides you love me like that.” She replied. He scoffed.
