Ellen reached the tray as she cleaned it up. She glanced at the running five years old Carter. Andel approached and caught Carter. He squealed and then Andel put him on his shoulders. He approached his wife and wrapped his left arm on her big bump and kissed her cheeks.

"I think I need to check on Aria."

​​

"It's only been to two days." Andel murmured.

"I am just worried. What if she wouldn't like the food in the canteen?"

"There is a café and they serve lunch and—it's all of your recipes in that café." He kissed her neck. "Stop that work. You need to sit down and relax your feed. I'll just put Carter into sleep—so we could shake the bed."

 She laughed and nudged his hard abdominal. Andel called for the crew to take over Ellen's work. She held his arm as they walked to the parking lot of her main restaurant.

"I am not letting do that work anymore, baby girl." He opened the door for her, and she slid in. He closed the door and he opened the door for the passenger seat and put Carter on the baby carrier.

 He drove back to their penthouse and Ellen told him to stop. He stopped on the corner and he peeked at the store.

"Is that Kathleen?" Ellen asked.

"Yes. I think. Why isn't she at grandpa's funeral? A year ago. I am sure that Andrew had called her many times." Andel is pissed but Kathleen is still his sister, so he's concerned about her. He hopped out of the car and approach Kathleen holding a boy's hand. "Kath," he called. Kathleen turned around.

"A-Andel."

"Yes. It's me. Your oozing hot brother." Andel crossed his arms. "When did you arrive?" He asked.

"Yesterday," Kathleen bit her lip and felt suddenly shy. Andel put down his hand and then spread it for her. She ran to his arms and hugged him. Andel patted her head.

"There, you need to visit the house. Dad is worried about you."

"I'm sorry."

"I know, you don't need to run away." He kept patting her head and then she pushed herself and wiped her tears.

"This is—my son."

"Oh, he's so handsome." Andel put a hand over the head of the boy.

"His name is Liam."

"So, you get married?" Andel asked. Kathleen shook her head.

"I think Love wasn't for me anymore." She chuckled.

"Where are you staying?" He asked.

"Hotel."

"I think you should stay with us first."

"It's fine."

"How about tomorrow? You can't say no. And," He gently pulled her. "You need to meet my son."

 Kathleen gently pulled her son and Andel opened the back door and from the seat.

"You see, Ellen here is my baby girl and then this is Carter." Andel introduce. "Say, hi Carter."

"Hi!" Carter waved at them.

"This is your cousin Liam."

"Hi, Liam!" Carter waved at him.

"Adorable. And you are having your second baby?" She asked. Ellen smiled at her.

"This is our third. Our firstborn is already in middle school." He told.

"I'll make dinner tonight," Ellen said. "Our penthouse is just nearby."

"Uhh—I don't want to…"

"Andel will pick you up," Ellen told.

"Okay." Kathleen nodded.

"Good."

 Dmitri checked Christian Lebedov's credentials. He's going to train to be one of the agents in the Phoenix Empire and to be on that training. Dmitri gave him a school for study, and he made sure that the nanny that is taking care of her would discipline him and not teaching him some revenge.

"You are aware that our empire executes your family."

"Yes, sir."

"So, if you plan for revenge, and destroying our empire, I think you need to think twice."

"It's not in my vocabulary, sir," Christian said.

"You are eighteen years old," Dmitri noted.

"I wanted to train more and serve your empire to pay for my family's debts."

"From whom you heard about this?" Dmitri observed Christian and he seemed to be sincere.

"I research about it." He told. "The news and the data that has been proved that our family did massacre yours. It's written in the history book."

"They did massacre my family. I saw it with my own eyes. But I'll let you enter the school again for your training. Your main goal is to protect the heirs and heiresses."

"Yes, sir."

 Demi thought that Zendaya's mood would go back but it seemed like she's more annoyed. Her father visited her many times even though she told him not to. It's just funny that she's a papa's girl and she tried hard to be independent without her father's backing.

"You should just tell him to stay away," Demi told her.

"I think that won't even work." Zendaya groaned and then she looked at her father with her mother who is flirting on the garden of the school. "Mom could occupy his mind." She snapped her fingers.

"Why are you spying on them?" Demi asked.

"It's just an accident, Dem."

"Oh." Demi took a photo of them secretly.

"They look gross whenever they do that," Zendaya mumbled. Demi pulled her away before her parents saw them.

"Thanks."

 Moira exhaled and groan because of contractions. She's pregnant for the last time and she doesn't know how it happened. She's nearly forty and yeah—she looked young and fit and like she's 29. But Alanis just impregnate her for every-night lovemaking on their world-tour honeymoon.

"Alanis!" She screamed. Alanis run toward her and reached her hand.

"Baby, what's wrong?"

"It hurts." She groaned.

 Alanis called the maid to ready the car and her bag. She wiped her tears and then she smacked his chest hard.

"I know…"

"It's your fucking fault!" She screamed at him as he carried her.

"Levi!" He called out his ten years old son who ran toward them. "I'm taking your mom to the hospital. Stay here, okay?"

"Can I go?" He asked. Alanis looked at his wife.

"Okay, let's go!"

 Alanis carried her his wife and bodyguards gather around.

 Kade's phone is ringing and his professor stopped teaching.

"Whose phone is that?" The professor roared in the class. Kade stood.

"Sir, may I excuse myself? I got an emergency." Kade asked in a rush. The professor waved him off.

 He answered the call and rushed outside the class.

"Levi, what's going on?"

"We are on our way to the hospital. Mom is giving birth."

"Okay! I'll be there."

"I'll ask a driver to pick you up."

"Now?"

"Yes. I think they are on their way to the Academy." Levi told.

"Thank you." Kade hung up and he leaned on the wall. His phone chimes and it's Aria his first cousin.

Aria: What's up?

Kade: Mom is giving birth.

Aria: Wow!

Kade: I'll be leaving the academy.

Aria: Have a safe trip.

 Moira's water broke on their way to the hospital and she pulled Alanis's hair.

"Ow! Darling…" Alanis felt like it's déjà vu. "I love you." He kissed her lips, but she smacked his face. It pains more.

 Levi is taking footage of how her mother is struggling and hitting her father.

"This is your fucking fault!" Moira growled at him.

"I'm sorry."

 They soon reached the hospital and direct to the VIP delivery room.

 Moira is struggling as she was positioned, and the doctor is telling her to breathe. She did breathe.

"I am not going to give you anymore!" Moira growled at him.

"I'm sorry."

 It was indeed like the first time that she gave birth to their son Kade. She screamed in pain and finally, she heard the baby's cry.

"Congratulation is a girl." The Doctor said. They haven't had an ultra-sound to check the baby's gender.

 Alanis's smile grows bigger and he kissed his wife's forehead.

"You did it, my love." He kissed her lips.

 It's already late at night and Demi kept searching for the picture of polaroid after Zendaya grabbed her while spying on Zendaya's parents. She went back to the garden, using the flashlight of her phone and she got it. She stood and froze when she heard voices.

"What we got here?" A boy's voice. He might be a senior from the height and the matured looks.

"Hey, it's a kid." The boy with him stopped it.

"Little girl, do you want to play with us?"

 Demi stared at the boy and checking him. She turned back from them and walked. She heard the man's footsteps get faster and from the shadow, he reached her arm and she quickly twists his arm and with her hand, she sliced his neck and he fell on the ground struggling.

"What am I? An infant? You better watch yourself, boy." She said fiercely.

 The boy stood again and was about to grab her collar but a strong hand twisted his wrist.

"Do you want to get kicked out of this school?" His voice is deep and shivering.
