Bryson, with his typical indifference, asked, Hasnt he reacted yet?
Knowing Bryson was referring to his own grandfather, Yosef responded, No. Franco hopes you will return to the mansion. Though Tyshawn currently leads the Mitchell Group, Franco doesnt plan to let him stay in charge.
Franco was always clever and strategic, which was why Bryson wasnt surprised he opposed Tyshawns leadership.
Well, I see. You can take paid leave and return after things settle,

Bryson told Yosef.
Yes, sir. There is another thing. Franco wants you back. What do you Yosef paused, giving Bryson a moment to think.
Bryson simply nodded and replied, I see.
After leaving the company, Bryson called Franco.
The phone rang for a long while before Franco answered with a mix of irritation and affection, You brat! You still remember to call me!
Bryson and his family in Cadilind werent very close, so losing touch while he was abroad seemed normal. Surprisingly, Franco sounded annoyed this time.
Bryson mentioned casually, Ill go back to the mansion to see you tonight.
Franco snorted in response. Youd better. And bring Miss Moore with you tonight.
Bryson paused before replying, Ill come alone. Shes busy.
Franco pressed further, Is she really busy or does she just not want to see me? I didnt like her initially, but Ive accepted your relationship. I wont make it hard for her.

Worried that Hannah might refuse to accompany him, Bryson pinched the bridge of his nose and explained, She cant come tonight. I need to discuss something else with you, so its not the right time to bring her.
I have something important to tell you, so make sure she comes tonight, no matter what! Franco demanded. Before Bryson could object, he hung up.
Listening to the dial tone, Bryson rubbed his forehead and dialed Hannahs number. The line connected amidst background noise.
Are you free now? he asked.
As the noise around her subsided, Hannah, who was at the police station, responded, Its too noisy here. What did you say?
Bryson repeated. Do you have time now?
No, but if its important, I can make some time, Hannah replied.
Bryson informed her that Franco wanted to see her. Where are you now? Ill come to pick you up, he offered.
I didnt agree to go to the Mitchell Mansion with you, Hannah clarified. She glanced at the clock in the police station and added, Besides, Im still dealing with yesterdays incident, so I cant come with you.
It seemed like a clear refusal, yet Bryson, undeterred, continued, Ive sorted out the contract. The deal with those fake researchers that Tyshawn signed is off, and it wont hit the market.
