"Mrs. Herren, it is such a kind surprise to have your son and daughter in law here. Thanks for coming." Though he tried to control his thoughts others can still find his anxiousness to know why this couple visited them.
"Mr. Grey, of course my daughter in law must be present here. After all she will be the one to look after the company now. And she is the head of our new project together" Mrs. Herren explained with smirk on her face.
Meanwhile Nathan and Aria hugged Jean and chatted with her. Aria gave Jean other packet. It is her tonic for instant relief from migraine. "Brother, gave it to give you. Eat something and have it, he will be here soon" Aria whispered and giggled before both of them shared a sweet kiss on cheek.
"He is worried Jean, but has some important things to do. Don't make us worry about you and be good" Nathan caressed his sister's head but got pulled back by his mother.
"Honey, how is your migraine now. Did you drink the herbal soup I sent to you yesterday? How is mango cheese cake did you like it?" Mrs. Herren asked excitedly as soon as she hugged Jean to her chest tenderly.
No one has seen this side of her. They know her only as polite and meticulous woman and as successful businesswoman with ruthless methods to her enemies. They have not seen her caring and protective side.
Jean giggled like a little child and hugged the woman back with same warmth. "Mom, these selfish people forced me to drink all the soup but shamelessly ate all of my favorite cake and only left one piece for me" Jean pouted cutely and complained to her motherly figure.
"Stupid brats. I warned that four boys not to do that yet they dared. Don't worry darling, your mother will make plenty of cakes only for you, they will not even have small share of it" Mrs. Herren patted Jean's head lovingly.
"Mom, I am innocent. Yesterday night I stayed with you, it is Nathan who visited them. What about my share" Aria childishly sulked.
Mrs. Herren laughed heartily. "Yes, yes.. The cakes are only for my three daughters here. Not to others" she cheekily smiled and indicated Seline to join the hug.
Raymond and Nathan frowned and pouted as if complaining silently. Seline chuckled and looked teasingly at them and hugged the mother Herren. Nathan and Raymond sulked unhappily at the sight of their lovers being
snatched away...
Others are rooted in their places. This is so lively and happy chat they have listened. Most of the upper families have many rifts between each other but these people are different. Moreover the mother and daughter bond between Jean and Mrs. Herren is so cute and they craved for more to witness.
Nathan's mother just want all of them to acknowledge that Jean is not alone. Though her own mother died, Jean will always have a mother figure and always will be the loving child for Herren's and Black's.
This two conversations with Black's and Herren's alerted others to never offend Jean. They are stupefied by this affection they have for her. It is like a silent warning to them
not to look down on her.
Jean is shocked but became emotional by this. She has Black's, Herren's and Summer's pampering her to no end. All the mothers of these families have always treated her like their own child. Only if her mother was alive...
After that some of other celebrities came. All of them politely greeted Jean and tried to mingle with her and curry the favors, this made Adam and Vanessa so envious. It is like this banquet is for celebrating Jean's glory rather than their success.
The next most awaited moment came when the silver Audi of Samuel halted at the entry. It is such a awesome car that caught all the attention at the first look. Same like Ray and Nathan, his entry is as Royal as ever.
This gentleman also treasured his partner in same way. They both are wearing same type of outfits like couple, and they looked so gorgeous. How can she not be beautiful when she is the former queen of modellings field.
After seeing who the woman in Samuel arms is, there are shocking gasps from all the people there. It is Ria, who never showed up to any of the events that too with a male partner.
Adam's foul mood quickly got replaced with happy grin and he excitedly greeted them again to get humiliated.
"Miss. Ria, I am big fan of yours. If you don't mind could I have a selfie with you" Cassandra squealed and sprinted to Ria side. Ria just ignored her like a fly and followed Samuel to Jean.
Next is the biggest shock to all of them. Samuel directly hugged Jean and pecked her forehead tenderly. Ria gave her the warm hug and sweet kiss on cheek. It is only when they realized that both the women dresses are of same model but different colors.
It is obvious that they shopped together and this is enough to show how close this former model is with Jean.
"You became pale Jean. These four friends of mine are not taking care of you properly huh.." Sam frowned upon seeing her deadly pale face. It is a lot different from the day he saw her in Nathan's marriage.
"Bro, you know how feisty this little devil is. Four of us are not enough and we will appreciate your help after you move to this city. Till then don't complain" Nathan scoffed at his friend.
"You will get to know when you face her. Then you can blame us if she listens to you obediently " Raymond glared at him. It took solid three hours for him and Scott to make Jean finish her dinner the previous day.
"I am not that rebellious, why are you blaming me. From now I will show hell to you four people. Oh.. no, five including you if you help them" Jean pointed. Samuel who gulped his saliva because of her cold glare.
Other people are stunned to see how dominative Jean is, she even have audacity to talk against these three people.
They made her eat every disgusting food and forced her to consume all the herbal medicines yet they call her disobedient. She was very good girl still....how could they say like this in front of everyone.
"See, isn't she defiant" Raymond asked Samuel.
Sam stared at his other friends who intentionally ignored him and all in sudden they started talking with each other. As if they are so busy to listen to their tantrums.
Who would dare to interfere in between this two devils.
Ria shook her head. "Hmm.. Guys, how about we debate about this later at night. Jean is already exhausted and do you want her protective boyfriend to lash out his anger on all of you and peel you alive" She skillfully saved her boyfriend from two devils who are having eye war with each other.
"Yes, Ria is right" other girls nodded. And atmosphere eased between the three brothers and stubborn sister.
Jean smirked as three of them retreated from the words fight. Scott will torture them alive if Jean get stressed because of their tantrums.
'He should be the only one to make me exhausted. Huh.. too possessive now a days. He even stopped considering my feelings.' Jean though but she knows very well how much he care for her and respects her..
Mean while Others are bewildered and beyond shocked by this. It is like a dream for them. Not only Ray and Nathan but other legendary tycoon Samuel is also a brother figure for Jean.
By now they got to know who her three brothers are but actually there should be four persons according to their conversation. Who is that fourth person?
Is he Scott.. they can't be lovers because each of them have fiancée. Might be..
These three mighty and haughty persons are actually afraid of Jean's boyfriend then who is he….
Then the other classic Benz halted at the entry way. They know whose car is this....how came this legend come to this mere banquet. He actually accepted invitation of Grey's and came over here, it is like a dream to see him....
As cameras flashed endlessly the middle aged man disembarked from the car while his bodyguards stood in their positions. He is a sight to see and very very rare to attend this events.
To their further more astonishment he is not alone. Then he opened the door for his wife, she is so beautiful despite of her age and looked out of ordinary with her elegance and powerful aura.
They both are enough to take this event to next level. Even at least one of them is powerful to shake this city to its core....
Everyone are beyond shocked to see. Actually there are no words to describe how they felt..no one believed that this is real.
