Qiara frowned then asked. "Why does that have to be? Is Zio going to get mad or yell at us if he finds out what we've been hiding?".

Julian finished his drink, after which he turned to Qiara with a complicated expression.

"Honey... Zio is not a child that we can easily handle, he is too smart and more mature than his age. It would be better if he got angry or shouted, but he will never do that when his heart is hurt. He prefers to be silent and hurt himself if we are not careful in speaking!". Said Julian sadly because he had seen Zio like that many times. 

Qiara's expression began to change, she knew that Julian was the one who knew his son best. Therefore she believed everything Julian said.

"Then can I handle it?" Qara asked. 

Julian smiled. "Zio is more like you, he's an active kid and sometimes stubborn. However, he turned into this because of some circumstances. So, if you try harder, Zio might be able to go back to how he used to be".

"I will try!". Qiara feels challenged so she is excited to bring Zio back to his true self. 

Zio is like this because of her, therefore Qiara is determined to return her son to how he used to be.

"I've finished breakfast, can we go now? I can't wait to see my son!". Qiara said after wiping her mouth.

"Okay". Julian smiled broadly when he saw Qiara getting excited again, he felt that the heavy burden in his life had disappeared. 

Not long after, they left the house together.

On the way, Qiara suddenly remembered her plan with Julian.

"Julian... I almost forgot about our plan". Qiara said after she turned to Julian who was focused on driving.

"What is that?". Julian asked without glancing at Qiara.

"It's about Reina, aren't we planning to marry Reina and Demian off?". Qiara replied with a perfectly rounded gaze.

Julian finally glanced at Qiara for a while frowning. "Marry Reina and Demian? You mean we unite them to destroy Virsen?".

"Yeah, didn't you say that Virsen's key weakness is Reina? If Reina is owned by someone else, then Virsen will be frustrated. Isn't that right?". Qiara smiled slyly because she felt happy if what she and Julian had expected could come true.

"But, didn't you say that Demian doesn't like Reina? I don't want that poor girl to get hurt!". Julian said.

Qiara was a little jealous when she heard Julian's words that he didn't want to see Reina hurt.

"Why...".

"Reina is my sister, but a different mother". Julian could already guess what Qiara was thinking so he immediately clarified why he was talking like that. 

Qiara was surprised, for the umpteenth time Julian surprised her. 

"How did Reina become your sister?". Qiara asked after she woke up from her shock.

"It's a long story, I promise to tell you later after our business with Zio is over". Julian replied emotionlessly.

Julian was embarrassed to bring up his father's other mistakes. However, he didn't want to keep anything from Qiara. 

"Okay, I'll wait! Now I will rethink our plan again until I find out that Demian likes Reina. However, if Demian doesn't like her either, then I will change my plans". Qiara said in a soft voice. 

"Thank you!".

Qiara nodded with a smile. After that, there was no more talking between them because Qiara was busy thinking about what to say to Zio. Meanwhile, Julian returned to focus on driving.

Kevin's house.

At the same time, Kevin was enjoying his breakfast. Today he didn't work because Maxwell asked him to do that. 

Initially, Kevin chose to take a day off, but Maxwell said that he had a surprise so Kevin finally obeyed even though he was still confused.

Just then, Kevin stopped his breakfast when he suddenly heard the sound of small footsteps running from the entrance.

Not long after that, Kevin was surprised to see a cute little figure standing beside his seat.

"Dad...". Said the little boy while looking up and blinking his eyes repeatedly.

Although confused, Kevin still gave Gavin a very gentle look because he was really happy to see him.

To be honest he missed Gavin. But he couldn't go to London to see him yet.

After that, Kevin took Gavin into his lap and greedily kissed the little boy as if he hadn't seen him in a long time.

"Gavin... Who are you here with? Did you leave Aunt Agatha?". Kevin asked in surprise.

"Aunt Agatha didn't come. But she said she would come here. I'm here with Uncle Max. I miss you, Papa!". Gavin replied.

Kevin smiled. "I miss you too!"

Kevin hugged Gavin tightly because, for Kevin, Gavin was more than his biological child. He had loved the little boy ever since he first came to his house. 

Gavin is very happy. 

"I love you, Papa!" Gavin said after he released himself from Kevin's arms. 

After that, his sparkling little eyes stared at Kevin without blinking then kissed Kevin on the cheek affectionately. 

Kevin couldn't help but smile happily seeing Gavin's cute behavior when he kissed him after expressing his feelings. 

Unbeknownst to Kevin, Maxwell was standing not far from the dining table.

Max looked at Kevin and Gavin meaningfully, at that moment Maxwell thought it would be difficult to separate Gavin and Kevin. However, he had to use Gavin to get Nathan and Mr. Joseph into a fight. Revenge will start from Gavin.

"I'm sorry Kevin!". Maxell thought.

After that, Maxwell walked over to Kevin and Gavin.

"Gavin... Why are you running so fast? This old uncle has a hard time catching up to you". Maxwell said as he sat down in the chair next to Kevin's.

Kevin was surprised to see Maxwell who was suddenly beside him. 

"So you brought him here?" Kevin asked sarcastically. 

"Hahaha... Don't put on a horrible face like that! I just wanted to tell you how much Gavin misses you. Because I know you miss him too, that's why I asked my subordinates to bring him here". Maxwell answered without guilt.

"Uncle... Didn't uncle call me saying that Papa asked me to come?". Gavin said as he looked at Maxwell in confusion.

Maxwell immediately fell silent, he scratched his head because he had just been caught lying. Of course, Kevin immediately gave him a horrible look.

"Do you have a new habit? That is lying to small children?". Kevin asked again in a voice that was deeper and more terrifying.

"Only once! So don't be angry! Now, may I have breakfast here? Because I forgot to have breakfast at home!". Maxwell said with a frown. 

"No breakfast for you! But, we need to talk! So, you better wait for me in my study!". Kevin said.

Maxwell took a deep breath, he was indeed the boss at YM Group. But, Kevin is the only friend he has. That's why he lets Kevin do whatever he wants. 

Maxwell likes Kevin for who he is. He is not a hypocrite and is always honest with himself and others. In addition, Kevin is a very decisive and competent person.

After that, Maxwell left the dining room for Kevin's study.

"Gavin ... Papa will talk to Uncle Max for a while. So, you play in your room for a while! Papa will follow you soon!". Kevin said in a soft voice. 

"Yes, Papa!" After that, Gavin got off Kevin's lap slowly.

Not long after that, Gavin ran to his room. 

"Maxwell tested my patience! How dare he bring Gavin here without telling me!". Kevin thought.

Kevin wiped his mouth with a napkin, after which he quickly followed Maxwell into his study. 

Kevin's office.

"What do you mean to bring Gavin here?". Kevin asked after he stood in front of Maxwell who was sitting in his chair. 

Maxwell immediately turned and looked at Kevin "Like I said yesterday!".

Kevin immediately hit the table in anger, he did not expect that Maxwell would still do according to his original plan.

"You are crazy ...". Kevin said while giving Maxwell an angry look.

Hearing Kevin's words, Maxwell stood up with a complicated expression. After that, he stood by the window.

"Don't you know how much I love Vania? Since her death, I can't calm down and my suspicions for Joseph continue to grow so I keep an eye on everyone related to her. Until in the end, I found Gavin as my weapon to destroy him. But, I left it to you until the time has come. And now is the time!". Maxwell said in a deep voice and serious expression.
