Rhys helped her take her things and drive her to her penthouse. She is squealing as she sat on the sofa and then run to the room and jumped on her Queen bed. He never saw her happy like this. She already paid all of her balances and she said that she will never take credit card ever again.

"This is mine?" She asked. He nodded at her and she jumped into him, wrapping her legs and arms around him and kissed him. He kissed her back passionately.

​​

He takes her to the bedroom that he already set up. Clothes started flying and he made love to her. After that lovemaking, he went to the living room naked and took out the paper bag. He approached her and gave it to her.

"What is this?"

"Open it."

She opened it and looked at the phone and a bank book. The bank book has 1.2 million in it. She opened the phone.

"Your bank is connected to it. You only have the access to it. So, the bank won't withdraw big or transfer money if it isn't you."

"What should I do with this phone?" She asked and checked the apps and other good stuff.

"That phone is for our Empire only. Have the own access to a satellite." Rhys said and he showed her the number. "That's your number."

"It's different from our numbers."

"Yes, it's an international number."

"Rhys, you are giving me too much stuff. I may not be able to repay you."

"You already did." Rhys patted her head. "You repay it by being my friend and listening to me. I don't have so many friends, but family."

"Alright, I'm going to cook dinner." She stood and reached for her dress and put it on. "Put some clothes on and cover that little man."

"You don't like my man down there? He's amazing, isn't it?" He said.

"He's amazing, but I want you to put your clothes on."

She left the room and he put his boxers on and followed her.

"But you aren't even wearing anything under." He said. He grabbed her and take her to the sofa. He overshadows her with him between her legs. "Let's just order food and have a champagne."

"Okay, I feel lazy about cooking since you are on top of me."

Rhys smirked and kissed her forehead. He reached the tablet that has access to the whole house. He already explained to her about it. Then, he ordered food from the app. She straddled him and there, they make love until the food came up.

Rhys just loves the setup. No worry about break up or something. Just two young people who love sex.

When Rhys chimes indicating that they landed in the Philippines, he immediately left her penthouse after kissing her lips and called bodyguards to lined up in the airport. He used his motorbike and drove to the airport. Then, when he spotted him, he immediately ran, knelt in front of him and hugged his legs dramatically.

"Raiden!" He cried. "Don't shut me out, okay?" He said.

"Hey, stand up!" Raiden pulled him and Rhys jumped into him. Raiden dropped everything on his hand and hold his butt and pat it.

Rhys's eyes landed on the goddess-like girl beside Raiden. He jumped off immediately.

"Dios Mio!" Rhys covered his mouth. "You are~~my sister-in-law?" He exclaimed. She smiled.

"Nice to meet you, Rhys. I'm Charlotte." She extended her hand. Rhys hugged her tightly. Raiden watched them. Rhys seemed excited and it's not a guy who would betray him. So, maybe the whole Bianca thing is a lie and they just kicked Bianca out.

Raiden hugged Cyra and Zavannah and they leave the airport. 

When they reached home, Raiden got more hugs from his parents. Her mother smacked him and nearly crying from making them worry. His mother wouldn't act so emotional, but now she seemed to be so worried. 

He was pulled to the sofa leaving Charlotte.

But Rhys escorted her and then, their father Steven greets Charlotte, hugging her.

"Welcome to the family." He said. Freya glanced at Charlotte and then, she started scolding Raiden for running off.

"Now, that you are married, you better take responsibility for what you and Charlotte did."

Raiden scratched his head. He didn't remember marrying Charlotte at all. Charlotte didn't say anything as she held her cold hands. It's the first time she's meeting his family and her mother is very intimidating also her sister Casey.

"So, how's the flight?" Casey asked.

"It's good," Charlotte said. "Not much hassle."

Casey nodded and Raiden looked at Casey. She looked at Raiden.

"Even though you don't remember a few things, you are still banned from my treehouse."

"What?" Raiden exclaimed. "How is that even possible?"

"Then, try to remember why you get banned from my treehouse." She said and smile forcibly which might look very creepy. Raiden rubbed his arm.

"Okay, the room is set up. I change a few things since you are married." Freya approached Charlotte and hold her hands. "Welcome to the family."

"Thank you." Charlotte smiled. Raiden looked at Charlotte and he still doesn't know how to act around her. He cuddled with her when she's crying.

"I'll prepare the food and get ready and take a shower or whatnot," Freya said. "Raiden, take your wife upstairs." Freya glared at Raiden. Raiden nodded and submissively, take Charlotte upstairs.

Once that the two are upstairs. Rhys sat down and crossed his arms.

"She looked sad," Rhys said.

"Indeed. Raiden might still think of that Bianca." Casey shrugged.

"Why?" Chelsea asked.

"Well, the last thing he remembers is that he's with Bianca and he loves her," Casey said bitterly.

"She looked like a good girl." Freya shrugged.

"Indeed." Steven agreed.

"I also heard that she turned back from her family for Raiden," Casey said. "She left her things behind."

"What?" Freya crossed her arms. "And Raiden haven't bought anything for her?"

"I guess," Casey answered.

"And how did you know all of these?" Chelsea asked.

"Cyra," Casey answered.

Freya called the maids.

"Prepare slippers and other stuff for Charlotte."

The maids bowed. Freya pointed Chelsea.

"Help your sister in law to buy a dress and other stuff that she needed."

"I can do that," Chelsea smirked.

Rhys looked upstairs. Charlotte doesn't seem happy. He needed to talk to his twin. He went upstairs to his room to change clothes into something casual since he's going to stay home than going to the office.

After his bath and looked good, he went downstairs and Charlotte came out from Raiden's room.

"Where's Raiden?" He asked.

"He went down first." She said. She's wearing Raiden's shirt and a pair of denim shorts.

"Okay," Rhys followed her.

"By the way, sorry that I couldn't reach you after the accident happen." She said as they walked to the stairs. "His phone breaks and I couldn't open to call you. Raiden is supposed to call you that day, but his phone died and there's no electricity at the moment. And lots of things happened, for him to unable to call you."

Rhys stopped.

"Really?"

Charlotte faced him.

"Yes, I told him to hear you out. Since Bianca is claiming that she got harassed by you and Raiden said that you can't do it. It takes time for him to contact you. So, I'm sorry."

"It's nothing." Rhys shook his head. "I'm glad that there's someone like you beside Raiden."

She nodded and crossed her arms.

"But he kept forgetting me." She shrugged. "What can I do? I already love him. I marry him and turned back from my family."

"Don't worry." Rhys pat her head. "He will eventually remember you. You have to seduce him well, that's all." Rhys winked. She chuckled and nodded. "Let's go downstairs. Mom made a very special lasagna and dad is also a good cook."

They went to the kitchen and Raiden is laughing with Chelsea and Casey. She approached the main painting in the family room. It's their family. She gaped at it. It looks so realistic like each character is alive. She stared at it thinking that it might blink or something.

Casey approached her. She looked at Casey.

"This is perfect. So, realistic." Charlotte said.

"Yes," Casey nodded. Charlotte smiled at her.

"You must be a great artist of this painting," Charlotte said. "You amazed me. I mean, Raiden showed me a few of your work with him and Rhys, half-naked, it looks so real." She said excitedly. Casey laughed.

"Yes, some say so. I just paint what I have pictured in my head. The real details."

Charlotte covered her mouth with eyes wide.

"My god, you have a photographic memory!" Charlotte said. "Looking at the painting, it seemed like you didn't miss any details. Charlotte said and she looked at the photograph under it. She took it and lifted it checking every detail of their clothes, every pore… "Wow," She mumbled. "You didn't miss a thing. How many months did you do it?" She asked.

"Just a few days." Casey shrugged. Charlotte put it carefully the photo back on the wooden long table.

"You amazed me more. I'm an artist too and I guess painting such a thing like this would take me months."

Casey extends her hand and Charlotte is puzzled but she accepts it.

"I like it. You are officially welcomed to my gallery and my treehouse."
