At the dining table, everyone was seated, quietly having breakfast.
While they were still eating, Silas decided to inform them of his trip.
"I will be flying to Venezuela today for business and I'm not sure when I will be returning," Silas said and continued eating his food.
Kim heard this and only nodded in response. She wanted to ask what type of business he was going for but she felt that it wasn't her place to do that, and Silas has been becoming more suspicious lately.
Hearing what Silas said, Alex became saddened at the thought of not being able to see his brother for an unknown period of time.
"Brother, must you really go?," Alex asked, while lightly tugging on Silas' shirt, showing his unwillingness.
"I'm sorry, Alex but I really have to go. I promise to make it up to you after I come back, okay?," Silas said, caressing his hair lovingly, as he tried to soothe him.
Alex could only reluctantly accept his brother's promise.
