DUO J: GENIUS
Reexamined

The morning sunlight goes into the cracks of the room when Gail wakes up. The effects of the drug make him wake up longer if he sleeps normally.

When Gail was about to walk out of the bedroom, a brown box caught her eye. That's what Nigel gave her last night.

Gail's heartbeat became not as calm as it was because it remembered the husband. Two mornings lately, there was always Nigel who seemed to welcome him when passing through the dining room to get to the bathroom.

Without Gail realizing it, she approached the mirror and improved her waking appearance to make it quite pleasing to the eye. After enough, the woman continued her steps outside the room.

Not as Gail predicted. The dining room is empty. The atmosphere of the house is also quiet. It seems like everyone is already in their own activities.

Jemma and Jarret at The Twins' house and Landon and Ellie in The Brown kitchen. Gail knew that because she was always informed about everyone's agenda on the night before bedtime.

The goal was like this morning, Gail did not become confused because she was left alone at home. After all this was not the first time he had woken up after Duo J and The Brown had started activities.

Returning to the room after cleaning up, Gail is again made curious by the box from Nigel. The husband has a lot to say but he doesn't.

Gail immediately opened the lid hook while weighing what the contents of the box that brown color it like. The woman's heart beat went too far.

There are papers filling the box coupled with photo albums and either other items that are not of concern to Gail. His eyes were more focused on the envelope.

The top one is Gail's first choice for her to open. Nothing was written on the outside of the envelope. The letter paper inside is a concern.

There was a handwriting filling two sheets of paper. Gail directly checked the end of the letter. The format of the place is usually as a notice of who wrote the letter.

It says: Nig-Nigel Irey. Gail recalled the time when her husband said he liked being called Nig, because it was the affectionate call of his beloved woman.

Gail went back to the beginning page of the letter. He also read Nigel's neat and nice-to-see handwriting. But the paper looked a bit wavy, like it was hit by drops of water.

Line by line that Gail read like Nigel was saying directly to her. It was like my husband was near her.

Gail again found Nigel's apology, which repeatedly passed the line. In two full sheets contain sentences that make Gail's tears drip.

The woman did not understand why her tears were still flowing even though she had finished reading Nigel's first letter. Then Gail returns it to the box and saves.

The mood became sad and Gail did not like herself to feel it in the morning. He plans to reopen the Nigel box later.

Gail packed up to go to The Brown Kitchen. He did not have hours of work but coming during the day was also not the thing he wanted to do.

After all the door locks and windows were repeated checks, Gail walked away from The Brown house. A few meters ahead of him is The Twins' house, which a few days ago still belonged to a neighbor.

Gail stepped towards the door of the house and then knocked on it. He wanted to see Duo J for a moment to say goodbye. Just like he did yesterday.

A few minutes passed, there was no sign of anyone there even though Gail knocked repeatedly. There should be Nigel or Duo J who opened the door immediately.

But apparently there was no one. That made Gail's mood repeatedly disturbed. Sendu again, just like before when there was no Nigel at the dinner table and did not know what tears related to Nigel's letter.

Gail decides to go to The Brown Kitchen. He can find out the answer to the host and his two children to Landon or Ellie.

Whatever happens to Duo J is always under the supervision of his adoptive parents. Gail moved in quick steps and repeatedly set her breath to stay calm.

“Dad,” call Gail when you see Landon coming out of the office. He ran so that he could talk faster in a polite distance with his father.

“Gail, why is your face so worried?” soft words Landon. He observed the unusual look on the face of the adopted child.

“Duo J and Nigel are not at The Twins' house, Dad. Is there something?”

“Home The Twins?”

“They are-there only.”

“They weren't there, Dad. The atmosphere of the house was also quiet. Do you know?”

Landon rubs darling Gail's head. It is impossible for him as the head of the family to ignore the news of all his family members.

“Duo J is in Addison's villa office, son. No need to worry anymore, yes.”

“Thank God. All I know is last night, they were planning on playing all day at The Twins house. I've calmed down, thanks Dad.”

“Good. Your calmness is important, son.”

“Thanks Dad, right,” said Gail chuckled. His mood improved again, starting to brighten.

“Who's father?” landon said jokingly.

“He's Gail,” greet the child and they both laugh. A taste for humor.

“First already. I have to go back to cooking, Gail,”, Landon said, wiping his slightly watery eyes with a laugh.

“Please Father Gail,” said the interlocutor. But before parting ways, Gail said, “So why did Dad enter the office?”

“Daddy receive phone from Nigel.”

“What's up, Dad?”

“Nigel let me know, he has already boarded the ship after dropping off Duo J to villa.”

“Nigel go?”

“Iya, go to Hicity.”

Instantly Gail's mood was almost bright, turning bad. His feelings were disturbed again because of Nigel.

‘Why it repeats like this,’ asked Gail inwardly.

***

It was a day of torment for Nigel. The business that was expected to be completed in a day turned out to be not according to his plan.

The impromptu decision that Nigel made had indeed received the approval of all the Irey families. But that didn't make it as resolveable as turning the palm of the hand.

Moreover, the repetition of the division of power to which companies and what business lines to be able to control Nigel from the island of Delan. He won't work in the office as he already does.

So it took a short time for Nigel, Miles, Avery and the Iking Group officials to get a new composition that fits. Adjustment to the presence of the main CEO through virtual.

If Nigel is urgently needed to be present in person, that too must be strictly regulated. Agenda only all day, he wanted to go early in the morning and come home late in the afternoon, balking to long leave the island of Delan.

So publicly, who appears as the leader of the Iking Group is Miles Irey. For the brain of turnover and the progress of the corporate group is still Nigel Irey, behind it.

“El, it will be very difficult.”
