Luigi looked at his secretary furiously.

"What do you mean canceled?"

"That's the information from the personnel section, Doctor. A man came in and canceled the employment contract on behalf of Miss Seymor. He even paid the compensation laid out in the contract that if the contract was canceled unilaterally, then the concerned would pay a certain amount."

"It's not a small amount." Luigi frowned.

Who is that guy? Catalina will not have that much money to pay for the cancellation compensation. Even if he had, the girl would have preferred to use it for the parlour. Not to pay for something like this.

"Are they asking who that person is?"

"That guy didn't introduce himself, Doc. Just saying she sent Miss Seymor to cancel her contract."

Luigi growled and then shouted loudly.

"Aarrrrhhhh!" Luigi's fist hit the desk in front of him. Make his secretary jump and start stepping back.

"How is that guy!?"

Secretary Luigi seemed to gulp before answering the doctor's question.

"A man with a cold face, there was a transverse scar on his face. Tall-bodied with short-cut hair, brown eyes with black hair." Secretary Luigi described the man's figure according to the words of the personnel section.

Luigi. No friends or anyone in Catalina's past fit that description when they were working at the clinic just yet. Luigi took a deep breath.

"alright. You can go."

The secretary quickly left Luigi's room and closed the door.

"Where are you going, Catalina?" Doctor Luigi closed his eyes tightly while leaning tiredly in his chair.

"I think we should introduce Leonard to all the relationships and people who work for us." Yoana looked at her sister who was looking down at a file with Vincent beside her.

"What?" Claude raised his head.

"Baby Leon is almost 9 months old. We should introduce him as a member of the Bernard family."

Claude just frowned.

"But people will wonder, Yoan. Who Leon's parents are. The three of us are not married."

"Tell me the truth. That Simon was his father."

"Then those people will start gossiping about Simon. The boy's scandal was already too much! No need to add any more."

"Then just tell me he's your son."

Claude frowned, then his laughter exploded. He's snapping. Joanna looked at him in annoyance, while Vincent was still as usual, expressionless.

"You want to make my title as the most desirable bachelor abdicate, huh Yoan?"

Joanna snorted at the nickname made by some famous magazines for her sister.

"Those women will come after you even more when they find out you have a son. But there is not a woman who is a mother to your son. They're gonna be vying for your attention and make Leon a shortcut to get close to you." Yoana grinned when she saw that Claude's face turned horrified.

"And your predicate will grow into one more, from the most desired bachelor as well as the new predicate *t*he most targeted Daddy ...."

Now your face is pale, Claude.

Joanna laughed in her heart. Vincent laughed behind Claude. Making the brothers look at him.

"Don't laugh, Vincent!" Claude grumbled and turned to face Joanna.

"Or you just tell me he's your son" Claude grinned. Joanna raised her eyebrows.

Joanna never left Vincent's face as she spoke. Claude giggled amusedly, he held his stomach when he turned his head and looked at Vincent's face.

"We're having a party. Meet Leonard as a member of the Bernard family. As my son and Vincent! Hows it? You want to marry me, right!?"

Claude was stunned to hear his older brother shoot his cold, flat right hand back. Vincent is seen trying to hold back so that his face does not show anything. But the small twitch on her forehead showed her horror at Joanna's suggestion.

"Don't tease her anymore, Yoan! You don't see he's gonna run away from here."

Joanna grunts loudly. It did not look feminine at all, contrary to its beautiful and graceful appearance.

"He's like polar ice! You think I can tease him!"

Dehaman from Vincent made the brothers look again.

"Miss Yoon's right, Claude. Let's introduce Leonard as the newest member of the Bernard family. About whom his parents told him he was the son of the Bernard family. There is no need to mention anyone's name between the three of you. Let those people guess. That's none of our business. But Leon's position in this family must be known to all the people who work for Bernard Corp."

The two brothers quietly listened. Vincent is always heard.

May you also listen to my words this time. I would love to see something exciting happen. You all Bernard family are so stiff!

"Simon must also be present. So you three took him to the center of the podium and introduced him. Tell Leonard Bernard is the son of the Bernard family."

Claude and Joanna looked at me.

"There will be someone who thinks that he is an adopted child, or the result of an illicit relationship. I don't know which one of you three will be convicted as the perpetrator of the affair." Vincent is amused by that possibility.

"It certainly wasn't me. I did not give birth to her" said Joanna .

"Indeed the media didn't see you giving birth to her, miss. But your life that is always closed can make them think. Besides, Leonard's black hair indicates that he's the son of one of you."

Yoana pouting. He often hides himself from the media. He moves in the world of entertainment. Having top models and rulers in the famous cosmetics business. But his personal life is closed. The media will grind Leonard's news into a very intense and major topic for weeks. He's sure of it.

"I'm very curious. Who among the three of us will be guessed by the media as the parents of Leonard." Claude smiled in anguish.

Vincent appreciates. You're hooked by Claude.

"Make a very big party. Let the media be present. Relationships and important people in our company. Those top models might also be invited." Vincent looked at Joanna .

Joanna stood up from her seat. "Want to bet Claude?"

Claude grinned widely. "of course. What do you want when you win?"

"You're married! You're looking for the candidate yourself, or I'll find him for you! Make the next heir for the Bernard family!" Yoana grinning. Very happy with the bet.

"That's fascinating. Then I also made the same bet for you, my dear brother. If I win, you get married. You find it yourself, or I'll find it, I'll give it to you." Claude grinned back.

Yoana's eyes glanced at Vincent.

"Married, Yoan! Whoever that guy is. Although not a Vincent Nueva Machado!" claude said firmly.
