"Hayden! Why are you back so late?! Where is Malissa? She was supposed to meet me here to check the decoration and everything else. I called her but she didn’t turn up. I called her again and again…" Auntie wailed in panic.

Hayden watched with furrowed brows as the old woman wrung her hands around like she was about to burst out crying. He quickly realized that she had not replied to his question at all and had asked him many more questions in return.

"Answer my question first," Hayden demanded curtly.

"Malissa called me earlier. She said she wanted to have a special dinner with you, so I helped her prepare it. But when I called her to come here, she didn’t turn up. I’ve been waiting all this time. Was she with you? Where is she now?" Auntie asked anxiously.

Hayden glanced over at the overly elaborate effort to set up a special dinner. If Malissa hadn’t wandered into Harvey’s wing and met Harvey, they would probably be having a joyous dinner together right around now. However, he knew well that that wasn’t possible anymore.

"Malissa already left the mansion," Hayden replied flatly.

Auntie gasped in shock and her hands flew to cover her mouth.

"What? That’s impossible. What happened? Why did she leave so suddenly?" Auntie said in shock.

"She’s gone and that is all that you need to know. Please arrange to pack up her things from her room," Hayden said passively.

"You can’t be serious…" Auntie whispered.

"Do as I say," Hayden said firmly before walking away towards his bedroom.

"Hayden! Wait!" Auntie called after him.

Hayden didn’t reply and didn’t look back. The door to his bedroom opened and he disappeared through it before the door closed firmly behind him. Auntie’s sorrowful eyes glanced from the closed door of Hayden’s bedroom to the decorated dining table full of food and flowers.

"Malissa…where did you go?" Auntie whispered regretfully.

…

Harvey watched from his seat on the sofa as his younger brother approached him. His eyes tried to read his brother’s emotionless face before he sighed in resignation. His attention wandered to the dog sleeping peacefully on his lap as his hand continued stroking its head gently. His eyes flickered toward his brother once again when Hayden sat down on the sofa opposite from where he was seated.

"So, where did you dump her body?" Harvey asked mockingly.

Hayden’s eyes narrowed at his brother and Harvey faked a mocking look of fear as he placed a hand over his chest.

"She’s underground and that’s all that you need to know," Hayden replied curtly.

"Oh…so she’s still breathing…" Harvey said, clearly amused.

"She won’t meet or talk to anyone. You don’t have to worry," Hayden said monotonously.

"Hmm…so you couldn’t bring yourself to kill her…interesting…" Harvey said before smiling.

"You shouldn’t have touched her…you took your sick jokes too far," Hayden said with an edge to his voice.

Harvey laughed a little and the dog on his lap stirred. Noticing that he was perhaps too loud, he began stroking the dog again to put it to sleep.

"Don’t act like it’s such a big deal. I only touched her neck a little. I promise, I didn’t touch her breast…I was close, though…" Harvey said, still in the mood for jokes.

"Harvey…" Hayden muttered darkly.

"I’m joking. Although you almost slept with Amelia once or twice, right? Let’s just say that we’re even for now," Harvey said with a shrug.

"I never got close to sleeping with Amelia. She did ask very often that it got annoying, though…" Hayden replied with annoyance.

"That was before she discovered that I existed and then she didn’t want you anymore," Harvey teased.

"Thankfully so…" Hayden murmured as he relaxed into the sofa.

Harvey thought that his brother looked tired. He’s been looking tired for a while now so the work outside must be getting to him. Harvey understood very well how tough the work was and he was thankful to his brother for temporarily filling up his shoes.

"Well, as long as that girl is kept isolated from the world, I guess it’s not a problem…" Harvey said with a firm nod of his head.

"Don’t act like you’re not to blame at all for this, Harvey…" Hayden snapped.

"I didn’t do anything. What did I do?" Harvey asked with wide innocent eyes.

Hayden shook his head at his brother before sitting himself down on the sofa opposite from him. Harvey followed his brother’s movement with his eyes as his hand continued to pet Little Hayden. Hayden’s eyes immediately went to the troublesome puppy that had bonded too well with his elder brother.

"Why did that dog run in here?" Hayden asked.

"How am I supposed to know that?" Harvey replied with a careless shrug.

"That dog ran in here to see you. Why? Because you’ve been secretly playing with it every single day for a while now, haven’t you?" Hayden openly accused his brother.

"Not quite every day. Well, most days…" Harvey admitted hesitantly.

Hayden looked at his brother with a look of pure annoyance before clicking his tongue.

"I told you not to cause any trouble…" Hayden growled.

"I didn’t cause any trouble. I was just playing with a dog," Harvey said in his own defense.

"That dog isn’t your dog. It’s Malissa’s dog…" Hayden reminded his brother coldly.

"So what? He likes me more…" Harvey argued.

"You sound like a six-year-old…I can’t believe this…" Hayden snapped at his brother again.

"I mean it. I didn’t do anything…" Harvey continued.

"Really? Then, answer me. How did you first meet that dog?" Hayden asked.

"Hmm…he was wandering around in front of my hallway and so I called out to it. Of course, he came running obediently," Harvey said with a smile.
