After the party, Gerald, Kester and Oscar gathered on the mansion's balcony overlooking the beautiful garden.
It was Gerald who called them to have a conversation.
" Oh, you are here! I have been waiting for you." Gerald welcomes the two people.
" Father, I-" Kester was reluctant. It was he who banished his father all those years ago. He may have been a different person now, but some things are hard to forget.
" I know. You don't have to do it. You should visit sometimes, I know your mother will be happy." It was the first time in years they talked to one another.
" But, How can I face her after what I have done to her?"
" You know we both feel the same. I also hid some secrets from you." Gerald said as he looked over Kester's shoulder toward Oscar. It was he who sent Oscar away without informing his father.
The atmosphere was gloomy for a few seconds before Oscar changed the conversation.
" Grandfather, do you have something to talk about?"
" Ah, Yes. Now that everything is sorted. What have you decided? Will you comeback?"
" Thats, I have to think about it."
" What do you think?" Gerald asked his son.
" I think that I am getting old. We have many issues within the family and we need someone capable to help us." Kester replied. Everyone knew what he was implying.
Oscar stayed silent. He was still conflicted; although the Hanson family was his birthplace, he felt like accepting their proposal would be a betrayal of the Rothschild family.
" You should think about your mother. She needs you. Same with your sister. Isn't it time for you to come home?" Kester asked, but Oscar was still silent.
" I know you are feeling conflicted but I had talked with Kenneth about it. He doesn't mind. You must know them better than me." Gerald mentioned.
" Yeah, also I noticed that blonde girl. Have you already rescued her family?"
" Ah, yes, we infiltrated their mansion before the party. Her family is safe."
" When are you formally introducing her? It is obvious that something is going in between you two." Kester asked next, which made Oscar flustered. He began to grasp for words to form his reply.
" Brat! Why are you getting worked up? Don't tell me, you are not serious about her." Gerald asked.
" What, No! I plan to marry her!"
" Huh, really? I was just joking," Gerald exclaimed, he was trying to lighten the situation, but unexpectedly it led to a new discovery.
" Yes, I love her," Oscar said thoughtfully as both elders shook their heads. It might have become a big issue in the past. The eldest son of the head would always marry for connections but seeing how serious he was about it, they could not say anything to oppose him.
" What about her? Have you two talked about it yet?"
" No, I will tell her in few days. It was a hectic week. You know how busy we were with planning."
" Ok but bring her around sometime, It is not a bad idea to know my future daughter-in-law."
Hearing his father utter those words made him embarrassed a little. But at least they didn't outright deny the idea.
But suddenly Oscar remembered something; he suddenly became serious and began to speak.
" Grandfather, Father, I have to report something first."
" Go ahead; you can speak freely," Gerald asked; he was confused by his change in mood.
"It is about our operation, Eric's family was involved in something far worse than what we previously thought."
[A few hours ago]
In front of an enormous mansion, several people dressed in black could be seen. Oscar, Karoline, David, and a couple of people took point in front of the large gate, waiting for their opportunity.
There were a total of ten such teams surrounding the mansion in different directions; they were waiting for further orders.
" Here, take this and remember the plan." David handed out earpieces for remote communication. Everyone nodded; they had already gone over the plan countless times.
" Other teams have already checked. As predicted the security is laxed due to todays ceremony." David explained. It was expected as most of the influential members had left for the party.
" Karoline and me can take the ones on the left."
" Okay, you must know your movements as you spend SO much time together. Cain and Steve with me. You know what to do. Everyone else acts accordingly; try to keep them alive if possible." David smirked at the couple and also radioed the other groups.
" Move out!"

It took half an hour to locate the 'package.' They moved like ghosts, decimating everything in their path with precision.
Karoline opened the target door; she was dressed in a tight black suit covering everything except her blue eyes. Oscar followed behind her while checking her blind spots.
She looked around the room to find a middle age woman and a teenage boy hiding inside the closet. They must have heard the commotion outside and hid to avoid detection. The woman looked like an older version of Karoline, while the boy had brown hair and with same eyes as Karoline.
Both of them looked at Karoline suspiciously but noticing her eyes, the boy shouted while running toward her.
" Mother, It's sister! Sister, why are you here?" He jumped toward Karoline, but Oscar blocked him, thinking of him as a threat.
" What are you doing? Let go of me!"
" Russian? You know him?" asked Oscar.
" Yeah, He is my brother, Alek. You can let go of him." Hearing this, Oscar quickly released the boy.
Seeing Oscar follow his sister's orders made Alek believe he was her subordinate.
" Humph, that's right! How dare you attack me? Sister, you should teach him a lesson." He asked Karoline. Oscar was surprised to see his childish action but decided to go along.
" I am sorry that I didn't know about your identity but I am responsible for the 'queen's' safety. "
" Wow, Sister, You became a Queen? Why didn't you tell me?"
" Darl-, Oscar, What are you saying?"
" Darling? Did I hear it right?" Karoline's mother looked at them suspiciously. They feared for their life a few moments ago but seeing her daughter made her relax.
" What? It is not! Daren, yes, his name is Daren."
" But didn't you call him Oscar a moment ago? I feel like you are hiding something."
" You are mistaken. His name is Daren Oscar, yes, thats what I was saying earlier."
" Daren Oscar? Are you sure? Its a weird name even by our standards."
" Yes, yes. Right, Oscar! She is my mother Vera, whom I told you about. You should introduce yourself." Karoline introduced Oscar to her family, who, on the other hand, was sweating bullets.
He was anxious about Karoline's blunder, but fortunately, he wore a face mask that hid his expressions. He also introduced himself respectfully, albeit as Daren Oscar. He was not ready to face her family yet.
" We better move; we are on a timer." Oscar changed the subject and led the group out. Several unconscious guards were lying on the ground in the hallway, groaning.
They met up with David, who was already outside the mansion. Their whole squad was present here, while a few were on the lookout for unexpected situations.
" You are here. This must be your family." David introduced himself to Alek and Vera. They had completed their mission, but there was one more place they had to visit.
" Leave them here and follow me." He asked. Oscar and Karoline were intrigued by his sudden request.
Karoline left her family with others and joined Oscar and David toward their target.
" Others have already cleared the place, but I think you should see this." David briefed others about it. He believed as it was Oscar's family, he should personally witness this scene.
The three of them entered a separate section of the mansion, and what they found inside were several young girls. Their ages varied, but the youngest of them was only fourteen. From their appearance, they looked like mindless zombies hurdled in a corner. There were visible signs of abuse, and they looked terrified, finding strangers entering the room.
" That psycho, How can he do this to them?" Karoline exclaimed. She had witnessed Eric's debauchery a few times but never knew it was much worse than she thought.
" Right, I looked earlier. Some of them are just kids, they were definately into some shady business." David gave his opinion.
" I agree, it is not easy to sneak in this amount of people with alarming the authorities. We must find some documentations to round up their whole supply chain." Oscar asked as he punched the wall in frustration.
He decided to give Eric and his people a fate worse than death. They have sullied the Hanson family's name for far too long.
On the other hand, Karoline began explaining the current situation to them. Some of them who had lost all hope finally had some in their eyes. They had been abused for several years, and freedom was the last of their worries.
It was only the beginning; they had to exterminate the whole operation to dismantle such a large organization. Oscar promised to write about his family's wrongs.
