Cedric and Ian were shocked to see Mien standing and in tears as Dave tried to hold him back.
Max too seemed quite distressed as Leon hovered nearby.
"Mien, please, calm down." Mae begged as she placed a hand on her friend's shoulder.
Mien shook it off, earning him a scolding from Dave.
"Don't you dare treat my girlfriend that way!" Dave warned in an intimidating tone, catching everyone by surprise.
"Thank god you're back." Katerina called out as she noticed Ian and Cedric walking back.
"What is going on here?" Cedric asked in a stern tone, making everyone back down. "I leave for five minutes and all hell breaks loose. Someone better explain things to me now." Cedric demanded.
"He said- he said-" Mien said as he tried to get the words out but he was at a loss for words.
"Mae?" Cedric asked his assistant.
"Max said that Mien was most likely Fernando's son." Mae explained to Cedric and Ian.
