Chapter 5 Saviour

"I didn’t do it deliberately, but I did it because I had a choice. After my company announced a partnership to upgrade the research and development section with much more sophisticated and advanced technology. Many tech companies showed their interest by inviting me to their business and private parties, and I happened to get an invitation from Grey’s too. I agreed to go so I can see her acting." Scott winked at David. Grey’s are Jean’s paternal family... who hate her to their core... "Why didn’t you take me with you, brother? Did you forget that you have a little sister? Wait till I complain to mother and grandfather about you," Daisy yelled from the kitchen. Daisy is Scott’s cousin on his maternal side....he always treats her like his own sister. "Yeah, Scotty, it had been long since we saw her cry and act weak." Aria pouted as she passed cupcakes to everyone. Jean rolled her eyes, but soon her face became pale after seeing the cupcakes made by them. However, other expressions were not any different from hers. They were afraid that they wouldn’t enjoy the weekend because Nathan was nowhere to be seen. They can all hear the sound of puking from the adjacent room. But they can’t hurt the feelings of the girls, so each one of them took one cupcake. Daisy is about to pass more dishes, but the delicious aroma from the foyer stops her. Two butlers are carrying a handful of pizza boxes, smoothies, and desserts for them. Aria, who was jumping in joy, forgot about the food she prepared and sprinted toward the waiter. No one is surprised by her actions; she is the worst foodie they have crossed paths with.. "Uncle, who bought these?" she asked excitedly while her mouth almost watered and saliva drooled down. "I bought them from your favorite restaurant," Scott said proudly as if he had prevented doomsday. Everyone looked at him gratefully, like he was a descended saviour from the heavens. All mouthed thanked him quietly, while Aria and Daisy were busy enjoying their food and devouring it like hungry cavemen. No one cared about manners, etiquette, and other bullshit. When they are with each other, they let their inner heart take the lead. But after they go out of this dreamland, they will be the best gentlemen, well-mannered young ladies. After some hours of chatting and making fun of each other. All came back to their serious versions as Scott looked at all of them and rested his eyes on Jean, who lay on his lap. "Let’s talk about business now. What is your further plan to eliminate your uncle's family?" Scott said as everyone straightened their bodies before listening to Jean’s plan raptly.
