Chapter 338 - Three Hundred And Thirty-nine: Bring The Old People Together

The third point of view :

Contrary to Reina\'s expectation, Nadia and Sakuzi didn\'t even say a word to each other. The workaholic woman was as usual busy with some stuff on her laptop while Sakuzi was helping Neon set his new toy.

Though the man was one of the busiest mafias in the world, he had taken everything off his schedule for the week just so he could chill with his grandchildren; he trusted Emerald and his sons could handle the business well.

Allen and Ailee stared at each other, they were puzzled by this kind of atmosphere. What\'s with these old couples? How were they going to get rid of this tension that was even choking them?

A bright thought came into Allen\'s head, "I have an idea," He told his sister.

"What is it?" Ailee was eager to hear her brother\'s wonderful plan of getting their grandparents together.

"We need sister\'s help,"

"What?" Allen almost shouted, yet lowered her voice on time so as not to attract their grandparent\'s attention, this was supposed to be a secret mission.

"Are you crazy? Sister would kill you or have you forgotten what we did to her?" Ailee talked sense into him.

"That\'s in the past plus she\'s our sister," He said but the girl gave him an unbelieving look with her arms folded.

"Fine," He sighed, "We\'ll propose a truce,"

"It\'s okay by me as far as you\'re the one leading," Ailee shrugged. She would not be the first one to receive their sister\'s wrath.

Allen saw through his sister\'s plan yet didn\'t say anything. Well, he was the first son and he had to carry on a lot of responsibility in the future?- he\'d start his training at this young age.

So with everyone distracted, both kids slipped and headed to the room of their sister who finally returned home not too long ago.

Isabella was lying on her bed with an anxious expression as she stared at her phone. Pedro had promised to call her right after he got home, but so far there was nothing. She then decided to call him and yet there was no answer, it couldn\'t be that he was avoiding her?

But then, why would he avoid her? He looked alright when they were returning and not as uptight as when he woke up and realizing what they did.

Could it be he used her? That thought didn\'t sit well with Isabella. She knew it was stupid to think that but she couldn\'t help it. She just gave Pedro her body and bared her soul to him - something she has never done - he\'d be dead meat if he tried anything funny with her.

With that thought in her head, she was contemplating her next course of action when a knock sounded on her door. A tired sigh left her lips and Isabella swiped something on her phone before shouting, "Come in!"

The door was opened but surprisingly, both kids looked left and right carefully and saw that the robot was disabled, walking in with caution.

A week before the wedding when?Isabelle couldn\'t take their "bullying"?aka "pranks" anymore, she purchased a robot that shoots a laser from its eyes upon one intruding into her room.

The robot makes use of thermal heat to detect human movements hence prepares to attack unless Isabella disables it with the password or voice command specifically modified for her alone; the laser was set at a healthy temperature - unable to cause severe injury or pain - but which can also be modified. It kinda feels like someone pinching you or something level of pain.

Thanks to that, the pranks ended instantly as the kids feared her robot greatly - but that doesn\'t mean they have given up since they were working on a counterattack for the robot.

"Hi our wonderful sister," both said in chorus and a sweet tone that would have left any other people in awww\'s, however, Isabella\'s brow furrowed in suspicion instead. What were those devils up to now?

"What do you want?" She said in a tone that wasn\'t welcoming nor cold either. Isabella loved them, but she was not in the mood for their jokes, she had things to think about.

"Why are you so taut sister? We didn\'t even do anything wrong?" Ailee attempted to use her charm all to no avail.

"Five minutes," Isabella gave them a time limit. She knew they needed her help, she could see it in their eyes; that puppy dog face doesn\'t work on her.

"Alright," Allen decided to come clean, "You got us there. We indeed need your help and it\'s related to the future and progress of this great family," He exaggerated.

Isabella\'s brows raised," Not interested," a mission this overstated couldn\'t be something good.

"Idiot," Ailee facepalmed. She then faced Isabella, "Mom wants us to get grandpa and ma together," she added,

"There\'s a reward for that,"

At the mention of reward, a smile etched on Isabella\'s once taut face, if she could help out and get a reward, that would be good. She\'d convert her reward to a wish, hehe.

"Fine, we would do it my way - the old-fashioned way," Isabella stretched and got up from the bed. This activity was enough to get her distracted about Pedro.

"What do you suggest we do?" Allen was anxious to hear her great plan.

"Just follow my lead," Isabella gestured to them to come closer and they both huddled around as they began their secret meeting.

After about five minutes, they all withdrew, a sleazy smile on their faces and they nodded in acknowledgment of the plan. Then they dispersed; it was time to matchmake.

Sakuzi stared at this woman with a puzzled look, why couldn\'t she acknowledge his presence? He has been throwing hints that he wanted a conversation with her but she ignored him. He guessed it was impossible to befriend an ex.

"Grandpa,"

"Huh?" Sakuzi was startled. He had been lost in thought and where had the twins come from? One moment, they weren\'t here and the next they\'re here.

"Grandma,"

Nadia took her eyes off her laptop screen to give the kid attention. As a mother, she was good with kids, however, she\'s a driven career woman as well.

"What is it, Ailee?" she asked

"How did you and grandfather meet?" The girl asked with an innocent face so sincere that there was no way on earth Nadia could have suspected it was an act.

"What do you mean dear?" her eyes connected with Sakuzi\'s simultaneously. There was a sudden strange awkwardness in the air.

"How did you and grandpa fall in love with each other?" The girl was persistent.

"Well," Sakuzi cleared his throat, choosing to answer after his wife, scratch that, ex-wife, took her eyes off, "We fell in love as every other normal?couple do,"

"I need details," Allen pointed out

"Why do you kids even need that?" Nadia asked, seeing no reason why they should be interested in their past marriage life.

"There\'s a competition online," Isabella came into the room and occupied one of the sofas across from them,

"\'Remember the old love,\' it encourages young people to tell the tale of their grandparent\'s everlasting love since it\'s impossible to get that nowadays," she added," There\'s mother watering prizes for each wins,"

This time Nadia knew she couldn\'t escape it. Though she could ask the kids to pull out of the competition and buy them the rewards it would be no fun and they had to learn how to compete and win - that\'s life.

"If that\'s the case, you should ask your grandfather," She dumped the whole work on Sakuzi, "He\'s an expert at information and memories and women," heavy sarcasm dripped from her words.

Sakuzi gave up, seeing the woman was ready to argue with him. Why was she even angry at him? He hadn\'t even said anything bad.

"Alright," He started, the kids turning to him with rapt attention, "Your grandmother was a very beautiful, beautiful, woman -"

"I bet you said those words to those other women," she cut him off with a sass.

Neon looked up with sheer curiosity, "Who are the other women?"

"Irrelevant to our story," Sakuzi dismissed his question.

Isabella stared at the drama going on. As expected, she was right; their breakup was a result of a misunderstanding. It was almost like watching version 2.0 of her father\'s and Maya\'s initial love story except this one was deep-rooted in misconception.

Sakuzi continued, "All it took was a night for us to fall for each other and to be Frank, she was the one who fell for me first," he joked - only if he knew the person listening to it didn\'t take it lightly.

A snapping sound was heard as Nadia closed the lid of the laptop forcefully. She hissed out, "You\'re such a doormat, why didn\'t you begin the story by telling them you\'re a thief,"

"Huh?" The kids were now intrigued by the drama. Where were the drinks and popcorn?

"This keeps getting better," Isabella said in her head and crossed her leg over the other. Bringing these couples together doesn\'t seem to be as simple as it looks.
