Mend My Broken Heart 129 Like Nothing Happened

Rodora looked at him with so much emotion to tell in her but she did not know where to start.

Kyler approached them in a calm and confident manner yet it was a direct opposite of what he truly felt.

He was glad to see his mother well and she's still as beautiful as he remembered. She's quite aged now but time only refined her more. The black dress she's wearing was another thing as she carried it well.

"What? Happy not to see me?" Kyler asked once again and he couldn't hide the amus.e.m.e.nt in his voice after seeing that they were stunned.

"Leo..." Rodora uttered softly but it contained a lot of emotions.

"No... I'm not Leo... He has been long dead... I'm Kyler..." he interrupted his mother. He could not help but feel pained after seeing her disappointed expression.

Lyndon on the side, did not talk as he wanted to diminish his presence in front of them. But Kyler had long noticed him in fact, he noticed him first upon entering this place. He just acted as he did not saw him and did not exist.

For a very long time, they felt awkward with each other's presence but Lyndon speaks.

"Shall we have dinner first.. I want to talk about you something..." He then looked at Kyler which seated in the middle of him and Rodora.

Kyler just nodded and picked up the menu which is on the table already. As expecting, the food here is quite sumptuous and of the best of the best.

"I'll have Grilled Duck Curry, Vegetable Fritters... Hmmm... I don't know what kind of drinks I should I have..." he muttered softly like he nothing happened. He stood no grace upon ordering for himself.

Lyndon is quite shaken by his nonchalance and his light mood. He thought that the man will directly confront him of what really happened back then but the man seems to be in the mood of eating than talking about serious matters so, he did not probe further and let the man do as e pleases. Anyway, now that he's here, he could talk him about it and the fact that he showed up shows that he wanted some kind of explanation.

This thought satisfied Lyndon so he ordered his usual meal.

"I'll have the usual... lamb cutlets and a bottle of red wine to be served after dinner. What about you Mom?" he turned his sight to Rodor who just kept staring at the man who sat beside her.

"I... I'll have what you're having... I'm quite famished.. add some fruits. I don't want to drink.." she said hastily recovering her composure.

"Mm..." he shortly replied. He looked at his older brother which he found no semblance of him at all. His face is altered by science but it did him great justice. His whole persona screams of wealth and mystery.

Kyler King is a rich businessman from country X and other than that, the public did not know anything. His whole profile is restricted and even protected by the government of country X but why?

The man himself did not know that his files and records were sealed off strictly by the government until today. He did not care about it.

As his plans were not that simple and bringing Lyndon down isn't possible now because his benefactor was missing and he knew that his younger brother knew about it.

While waiting for the dishes to be served, the kitchen served them appetizers.

Thus, they busied themselves digging and soon after, their dinner is served and the waiters gave the privacy they needed as they not linger around and went back to the kitchen until further instructions.

So, they ate inside the restaurant with silence, enveloping them.

Rodora did not have much appet.i.te and hardly ate the food she ordered. She excused herself from the two.

"I'll just go to the powder room."

The two men were left alone on the table but then, they remained silent and there was no single sound coming from them.

Lyndon wanted to say something but the words were stuck on his throat and overwhelmed by the fear that his brother misunderstand him more.

He sneaked a peek in Kyler's face but the man did not show much as if he suffered facial paralysis. Unlike him that his uneasiness could not be hidden. It even showed and reflected on his eyes which was known to Kyler but he did not care.

After a long time of mustering courage, Lyndon nervously spoke and grabbing the opportunity that their mother was not yet back.

"So, how are you?"
