He lost a brother

For two days 3 teams worked on the rescue mission, Oliver himself went down the cliff to find her. The cliff was very slippery and dangerous, it was difficult for anyone to survive here. Oliver still didn't give up he went a few times with the rescue team but unfortunately didn't find anything. Finally, Uncle Joe build up the courage and came to Oliver.

"CEO Knight, I think it's time to stop. The whole area has already been searched more than four times, if she was here we would have found her by now."

Oliver got angry, he grabbed Uncle Joe's collar and said. "So am I supposed to just accept that she is dead?"

Uncle Joe shook his head and asked, "Do you believe that she is alive?"

"Yes," Oliver said firmly without any hesitation. He believed wholeheartedly that wherever Ava was she was safe and well.

"Then, believe me, she will come back."

Oliver moved his hands from Uncle Joe's collar but didn't say anything. He kept staring at the cliff for a while when his phone started to ring. Oliver saw it was Ella, he picked it up.

"Oliver…Oliver where are you? Your uncle's family….They are all dead." Oliver heard his mother's heartbreaking cries over the phone.

Oliver stood there holding the phone in his hand puzzled. His uncle's family was dead? That means Michael and Liam were dead? But how? Oliver quickly gave orders to Uncle Joe to stop the search. Then he got into the car to drive back to the city. He took out his phone to call his father when he noticed there was a text message notification from Liam. He sent it last night. Oliver quickly opened the message. '

The message said: 'Oliver, I'm sorry. I could finally gather up the courage to confess to you about everything today. I knew about my father's high ambition and the desire to take over Knight International since I was in college. He could go to any extent to have what he wanted. In fact, 6 years ago Melody's accident was arranged by my father, only because you refused one of his cooperation cases to carry on. I knew that day something was about to happen but I didn't know what. I wanted to warn you but I never had the courage to go against my father so I stayed quiet. I know you won't forgive me. I don't expect you to but I had to tell you everything today.

My father lived a hard life when he was young so he was afraid of going back to that life again and did every possible thing to earn more money. Unfortunately, he didn't realize to achieve that goal what he was loosing and how vicious he had become. As his son, I couldn't do anything but watch. Regardless of how cruel he was, he was a good father to me so I couldn't let him down, and I also started to walk in his footsteps.

Oliver do you know, I often missed the time when we were young. When you were little you would always follow me around and ask me to play with you. When you grew up little we used to fight a lot and compete with each other for everything but our relationship was always pure like true brothers. You always used to call me brother that time. But my brother I am not worthy of being your brother.

Today I decided to take my life because I couldn't live in a world where she was not. I am not brave like you. I really loved Ava. I fell in love with her at first sight. Since I heard the news of her death, I have been struggling to even breathe. Don't worry brother, I'll take good care of her up in there. You need to live a good life, ok! I know my family owns you three lives, Melody, Ava, and your unborn child, I promise you in the next life I will pay off this debt.

One more thing, I know I'm guilty of many things and I don't deserve to ask you for anything but if you can, please let Emily go. She is a poor woman, I dragged her into this mess. Just let her go. Consider this as my last wish.

Goodbye my brother, Please forgive me for everything and saying goodbye to you in this way. In the next life, we must born from the same mother and always have each other's back. It's my biggest regret in this life that as your big brother I didn't protect you well. I am really sorry.

I wish you all the best.

Oliver read the text and threw the phone on the passenger's seat and stared at the road in front of him. He felt sad at that moment. Why is it that the choices we make define our whole life? If Liam could come clean to him earlier then he wouldn't probably have to leave like this today. It was all Michael's fault that things turned like this today. Because of his own insecurity, he pushed his own son to this abyss. Oliver started the car and drove to Knight Mansion with a heavy heart.

When Oliver came to the mansion Ella's condition was very bad, she had already fainted twice and now resting on the bed. Uncle Joe came to Oliver and said in a low voice, "CEO Knight, it was Liam who poisoned his parents first and then drank it himself. He did it last night and when the maids came to wake them up in the morning they found them all dead."

Oliver was stunned, he didn't expect Liam to poison his own parents. Oliver never thought Liam would repay for his sins in this way. His last did mark Oliver's heart in a severe way and his eyes got wet for his brother. He lost a brother today.
