"Hey Jaden,e with us. Are you not curious about my eldest brother?" Scarlet suddenly called him over after she arrived at the entrance of the basement gym.


    Jaden was surprised by the offer that Scarlet made. Still, he shook his head as he responded, "Don''t worry about me. You go ahead. I will meet with himter on. It''s time for the family reunion, it''s better for me not to interrupt."


    "What interruption can you cause? You have already been here for quite a while, and you are considered as part of our family. So, let''s get going." Sylvia suddenly interjected. At the same time, she winked at Scarlet.


    Scarletpletely ignored Sylvia''s actions. Instead, she gazed at Jaden, waiting for him to respond. Of course, she hoped for the positive one.


    Jaden simply shook his head without saying anything. From this, it could be easily seen that he was not willing to go. It was not that Jaden was not interested or curious about the eldest young master of the Johnson family. It was just that he thought that he could meet with himter on.


    Upon noticing that Jaden did not seem to want toe with them, Scarlet and Sylvia had no choice but to leave on their own. They could not continue staying here, as they were looking forward to meeting with the eldest young master of the family.


    That was especially so for Scarlet, as she was so close with her eldest brother. In fact, her eldest brother was the one that dotted on her the most. It was just that he usually dotted on her when she was young, but when they grew up, he left home. So, she missed him so much.


    ….


    In the living room of the Johnson mansion, there was a joyous mood in the air. Smiles could be seen on the faces of Clifford and Lte as they looked at the young man that was seated in front of them.

    This young man possessed short red hair, with blue eyes, and a muscr build. His appearance resembled that of Clifford, it was just that he looked like a younger version of him.


    His eyes were filled with stubbornness, together with his stern expression, even when in the face of his parents that he had not seen for quite a while.


    "What is up with that expression of yours? Don''t you know how to smile? Or should I teach you how to do that?" Lte asked jokingly as she looked at her son.


    It had been quite a long time now, and they were meeting finally. Even though she was always focused on the family businesses, that did not imply that she did not care about her daughter and sons.


    So of course, she missed her eldest son, considering that most of the time, he was away. It had already been a few years since they had seen him, and now that he was here, it was a call for a joyous asion.


    Alexander could only force a smile on his face. The expression on his face, was simply due to how he had gotten used to after all those years that he had been away.


    "So, how are you doing now? Have you already finished the training program?" Clifford asked. Even though his expression looked stern, there was a sense of joy and easiness in his voice,pletely different from the usual times.


    "Yes. I recentlypleted the training program. Now, we are simply in the finalizing stage, where we are expected toplete a few missions, before we can finally graduate." Alexander responded.


    "That''s good. I do wonder what those missions are." Lte questioned.


    At the mention of this, Alexander scratched his head a little awkwardly. "Well, you see, one of the missions that we were given was to make sure that the crackdown of the criminal activities within the city are dealt with…"


    Alex did not finish what he was saying, as he could only look at his parents'' expressions as they changed. That was to be expected.


    "Are you serious? You want to tell me that you have been here all this time, and it is only today that you areing to see us?" Lte asked with an incredulous expression on her face.


    Even though Clifford did not say anything, still, from his expression, it was clear that he was not happy with this. After all, they were within the same city, but Alex had not made any effort in order toe and see them.


    "It is not that I did not want toe and see you. It is just that I am holding the position of the captain of the team that was sent over. Since the crackdown was still in action, I had to make sure that nothing went wrong.


    So, I could not take any break in between, considering that we had to monitor the actions of the gangsters all time round. Otherwise, if anything went wrong, we would have ended up failing the test that we were given." Alexander responded.


    "You are the captain? That is to be expected of my son." Lte stated with a proud expression, as if she was not the one that was unhappy with Alex noting to see them.


    "Congrattions then. It seems that your future is getting even brighter. So, do you think that after this mission, there is going to be another mission?" Clifford asked.


    "I don''t think so. This should be the final mission that we will be taking. We have alreadypleted a few missions, and we all got good results. In this one, even though the results are not the best, still, it is simply because of the  inadequate preparations. Still, we are about toplete the mission, before we go back to the capital." Alex responded.


    "You will be leaving so soon?" Lte could not help but get a little sad up on hearing that. Her son had just returned, but now, he was already nning on leaving?


    She was quite sentimental. It was just that most of the time, she suppressed that, making people think that she did not really care about her family. But away from strangers, she was quite free, especially with her children.


    "I will be able toe back after I graduate. We should be given an entire month, before we finally join the force officially." Alexander responded, trying tofort his mother.


    It was only after she had heard that he was going to have one month to his spend with them that she was relieved. Still, it was a little ufortable, considering that she could only be with her son for one month.


    But she had no other choice, but to allow her son to go and pursue his dreams. Previously, they had always been preventing him from doing that, as they wanted him to take over the family businesses.


    But, even though Alex was doing that, doing what they wanted him to, he did not like it. In the end, they decided to allow him to pursue what he wanted, especially considering that Anthony was there.


    Additionally,pletely different from Alexander, Anthony was a person that was not against taking over the family business. So, it would be better to leave everything to Anthony to take care of.


    Least to say, Alexander was a person with a stubborn and fiery personality. Even though he could control his anger quite well, but if he really got angry, it would be difficult to rein in his temper.


    It could be said that his personality was simr to that of Scarlet. It was due to this that they were not that much strict on Scarlet, but they had to control her. After all,pletely different from Alexander, Scarlet was ady. So, she had to behave as ady, at least as much as possible.


    At this moment, the sound of footsteps could be hearding in. And a little whileter, twodies came in. They were none other than Scarlet and Sylvia.


    Scarlet immediately rushed towards Alexander. And upon seeing her, Alexander stood up. He opened his arms wide, and Scarlet jumped into his embrace.


    Due to his sturdy frame, other than shifting his body backwards slightly due to how roughly Scarlet had jumped into his embrace, Alexander was able to prevent himself from falling back on the couch.


    Sylvia on the other hand was more reserved. She approached Alexander, and after the two siblings stopped hugging, she stretched her hand and shook hands with Alexander.


    "How have you two girls been doing? I hope you haven''t been causing trouble, especially you Scarlet." Alexander asked with a smile on his face.


    Scarlet pouted. She said, "Why do you point at me? It''s not as if I cause trouble, do I?"


    As she asked that question, she looked around. But it seemed that everybody was avoiding her gaze, as nobody wanted to respond to her. In any case, there was nothing for them to respond, considering that the answer was obvious.


    Scarlet pursed her lips when she saw that. Then, she snorted but did not say anything.


    When they saw her expression, everyone in the room could not help butugh out loud. It was quite rare to be able to see such an expression on Scarlet''s face. After all, most of the time, she was acting strong, and never showed such a side of hers that easily.


    Alexander ruffled her hair slightly as he said, "Don''t worry sis, I was just joking around. Anyway, how have you been doing recently."
