Outskirts of the city.
"How could you be so careless?" Kareem yelled at his eldest son, Karl.
Balling his hand into a fist, Karl gritted his teeth, "I don't know what happened but give me some time and I—"
Cutting him off, Kareem fumed, "Time? You want me to give you time? You were the one who took this reckless move and kidnapped that Darwin guy out of nowhere even though you knew how stubborn and strong tongued that guy is. You sent that stupid message to that Mo Yihong and forced him to come back to the country once again. And now after doing so many stupid things, you couldn't even keep that Darwin in a proper guraded place?"
"That wasn't my fault, I just wanted to help and—"
"I think you have ruined everything enough." Ignoring Karl, he turned towards the guard and inquired, "Did you look for him everywhere?"
"Yes boss we did, we looked for him everywhere but it's like he is lost," the guard hesitantly answered.
Gritting his teeth, Kareem snapped at Karl again, "Do you have any idea what will happen if your grandpa finds out about this new problem that you have created?"
"But I was just trying to help, how long are we just going to stay back and do nothing that will actually affect their lives?" Without waiting for his reply, Karl added, "For all these years, we have been suffering and the people who are involved are just roaming around freely like nothing happened. We have to take a bigger step dad, staying in the dark is not helping."
"How many times do I have to tell you that your grandpa already has a plan and we are working on that. There are too many people involved Karl, we need to take each and every step very carefully. There was a reason why we wanted Mo Yihong to leave the country that time. We cannot let Yang Weilong and Mo Yihong reunite again, it is dangerous for our plan. That girl marrying Mo Yichan was a big problem already and now your stupid move just fucked up things even more."
Massaging his forehead, Kareem sighed, "I just don't know what to do with you, I am so sick of your rebellious behaviour."
"What did you say? You are sick of me?" Letting out a mocking scoff, Karl snarled, "Lucas has been against you for years and Roger, he is good for nothing and you have been toying him for years now. Both of them do not care for you, I am the only one who does and I really wanted to help you and grandpa—"
Cupping his face, Kareem took a deep breath, "Son, I know that you just wanted to help but your father doesn't need any help. Things are moving according to my plan and if you really wanna help them you can do so by not doing anything at all."
"But—"
"You and Angella are the only people I care about the most, I don't want to lose your because of your stupid ideas. Things are much more complicated than you think it is because let's face it, killing Mo Yichan's wife is not going to be that easy. They are this huge group of people who are almost impossible to touch, we need to target the people around them and make them weak. Even your grandpa wants everything to be done fast but that is not possible, a thorough plan is required and I am working on that."
Keeping quiet for quite some time, Karl inquired, "Why are you so scared of them? And why don't you just kill Lucas and Roger? They share the same blood as us but yet they are supporting the other side, especially that Lucas."
"They are your brother's Karl, stop talking about them that way. And don't underestimate Roger, he may seem like the one who is least interested and doesn't know anything but he has better connections and brains than you do." Straightening his suit, he added, "I don't want Roger to get involved in all of this because if he gets a sniff of anything, that guy is not gonna let it go until he gets to the bottom of it."
Glancing at the watch, Kareem continued, "It's time for me to leave now but while I am away, I don't want you to anything stupid."

Ning and Yichan's place.
Inside the room.
Looking at her awfully handsome husband who was peacefully sitting on the bed with a huge grin on his face, Ning chuckled, "Well, someone seems very happy today."
"Uh huh, I am very happy. In fact, there is no limit to my happiness today," Yichan beamed.
Snuggling beside him, she smiled, "Is it because you reunited with an old friend of yours?"
Pulling her closer, he sighed, "Not exactly but I am happy for that too, everyone is happy for Roger."
"Then what is it?" Before Yichan could say anything, she added, "You know what nevermind, you don't have to tell me and before I forget, I am going shopping with sister Suyan this weekend."
"Hmm that is great honey, you should go out more. You still remember that we have to go to the Zhang mansion tomorrow," he recalled.
Widening her eyes in shock, she gasped, "Oh shit, isn't it Meili's welcome party?" When he nodded his head, she sighed, "I don't even have a gift for her yet."
"Don't worry about that, I'll manage everything. Just come home early and get dressed," he smiled.
"Are we taking Yitian with us too?" Without waiting for his reply, she added, "I think we should take him too, what will he do home alone? And it will be a bit refreshing for him too. What do you say?"
Kissing the top of her head, he smiled, "Whatever you say goes honey."
"Now go and tell him about it." Pushing him off the bed, she chuckled, "Don't be lazy Mr Mo."
"Can't I go tomorrow morning? It's cuddle time for me," he retorted.
