Chapter 124 - 124 The Su's and friends Greatest Nightmare

December 23rd; Mystic Hotel 

A day before the gala, the family of three was at the front desk with their family friends; the Xu and the Lenrue were invited too. They all check-in at deluxe rooms that Rica Xi was very furious about, she does not use it in having a room like that and it makes her very irritable. ​​

They are busy arguing with the Receptionist on duty when the Cheung family arrives. Luke is already there on standby to accompany them to the Penthouse 2 of the hotel. "Good morning, we are here for the gala, I received an invitation stating that we already check-in" Lucas informed the front desk that makes James Su turned his head to the familiar voice he knew for a very long time. But what gave him and Suzy a very big surprise was when they both saw the woman they never have seen for 8 …..9 years; they can't remember but still it was like a ghost of their past. 

James and Suzy: "Lily!"

The Cheung's heard their voice but they never paid any attention to it. "Elder Lucas! Grandma Eva! Aunt Lily!" the voice of the very excited Wu triplets was heard, the three rush to the Elders and Cassie make it a point to hardly bump to Sofia" side to hurt her. The Wu triplets embrace the Cheung's as they exchange pleasantries, and they never paid attention to the other guest that are looking at them. 

Beads of sweat are forming at Suzy's forehead as her face turned pale, James stared at the woman he didn't saw for how many years; the woman he thought was already dead, the woman who loves him very much but he never appreciates her efforts when they are still together. 

Cassie: "Aunt Lily, you look so stunning."

Lily: "Thank you, Cassie, you too….you look so lovely. Are you in love?"

Jessica: "I hope so Aunt Lily…. I'll treat the man who can tame her."

Lucas: "Aren't the man we met before is your boyfriend?"

Cassie: "Elder Lucas, I think the three of you are very tired, we will accompany you to your room at Penthouse 2."

Samantha: "We have a big surprise for the three of you there. Aunt Lily, we will make you more lovely a little while…..we want you to meet someone."

Eva Cheung: "Oh my the three of you ladies are trying to sell my daughter to someone?"

The Wu triplets nod their heads, "Don't worry Grandma we already got the permission of the higher-ups" Cassie replied as she winks to them. Then they all walk away from the front desk area, "James…..James….That's Lily?" Suzy whispered. 

James: "I know….but why she can't recognize me? She can recognize the Wu triplets but not me?"

Rica: "Aren't she dead just like her daughter?"

Andrew: "How come Lily Su is alive?"

James: "I don't know. What I know is, Lily died in a car accident 8 years ago."

They just watch the silhouette of the Cheung's and the Wu triplets walking away from them. Rica is still arguing at the front desk about their assigned rooms when a cold voice was heard from their behind. "Ms. Receptionist, are the guest for the Penthouse 2 has arrived?" Scarlet asks; "Ms. Receptionists, if there are any problems just contact us at Penthouse 1" a familiar voice to James Su was heard. As they all look to where the voice came from, they felt like; a full bucket of cold water was poured unto them, especially Suzy, Rica, Sofia, and Aira.

The group was very confused about the woman they've just seen; especially Suzy and Rica, for 5 years they thought that Luna is already dead but who is this woman in front of them. Why does she resembles Luna from head to foot, the only difference they have is….. Luna is very timid, naïve, doesn't know fashion and most of all a useless and worthless lady of Su family while the woman who is in front of them right now is refined, smart, s.e.xy, stylish, and most of all strikingly gorgeous…. Just like Aphrodite the goddess of beauty in Greek Mythology. 

Receptionist 1: "Lady Scarlet, Lady Autumn Good Morning., The guests who are here right now are asking why their rooms are assigned at the deluxe."

Scarlet and Luna look to them in unison. "There are no more other rooms. If you don't like it then leave" Scarlet's cold and stern voice was heard. Luna giggled upon hearing it and shook her head. "Scar's 

Luna: "I'm so sorry Mrs. Sofia Chen, the other rooms are assigned to my family and friends. And the others are assigned to upcoming business associates, I intended to list your name under your husband's room assignment but there is a rumor circulating that you two are already divorce. Is that true? And because of that, we omit your name and your family's name to the presidential suites."

Rita & Aira: "Louie divorce you? Why? When?"

James and Suzy were both stunned on how Lady Autumn knew about the divorce. Sofia is on the verge of crying, "How did you know? It is only him, and Atty. Alberts knew about it" she replied is a very low tone but still can be heard by everyone near her.

Scarlet: "Even walls have eyes and ears Mrs. Sofia Chen."

Autumn: "But still, we won't believe it not unless the two of you confirm it to us. Remember my family has a deal with your father."

James: "Yes Lady Autumn, I don't forget our deal. Maybe later we can discuss some details about it if you have time."

Autumn: "No, I don't have time for the whole day. You have already ruined some of my time right now. Tomorrow, we can talk about that after the gala."

Then just like that, Scarlet and Autumn left. The Su, Xu, and Lenrue were just silent. "We will just take the rooms, and since we are 3 families and with 3 separate rooms we can manage," Andrew Lenrue told the receptionist. 

Receptionist 1: "Don't worry Sir, your rooms are all connected so you can still have the bonding that you want."

As they all settled the commotion that Aira's mother has caused, the receptionist gave a loud sighed. Then suddenly Ares came in front of her and giving her a gift in a very expensive paper bag, Ares just told her that it was Lady Autumn's gift to her for keeping calm when talking to the stubborn guests. The receptionist just gave her thanks to Ares and Lady Autumn.

Su Deluxe Room

When the family of James Su entered their room, Aira and Rita's parents followed. They want to clarify some things. First, they've seen Lily Su the ex-wife/dead wife of James, and the second one was Luna…. Louie's ex-wife/dead wife also; Rica and her daughter Aira are nervous to meet them in flesh.

Rica: "Tell me the truth, James! Is Lily Cheung Su alive?! Is she the one that we have just saw with the Wu triplets?!"

James: "I don't know, but I'm sure that she is Lily. But how did it happen? I buried Lily 8 years ago."

Suzy: "Aren't the Elder Cheung��s giving us a nightmare by using someone who looks like Lily to frighten us?"

Andrew: "Why would they do that Suzy? Didn't you see, the Wu triplets are very fond of the lady a while ago. It only means that….your nightmare is following you now."

Rita: "Dad! Don't frighten Aunt Suzy, look she is trembling in fear already."

Sofia: "Dad, how did that Lady Autumn and Lady Scarlet knew about my divorce? I told Atty. Alberts to keep it a secret until tomorrow."

Aira: "So it's true, you are divorced from Louie. Why? Didn't you two love each other?"

Sofia: 'From the day Louie saw that Lady Autumn in front of our house at Pearl Plaza. He got a hunch that she was Luna, at first I was not bothered but as days goes by…..his feelings is very deep that Luna comes back. There are strange things that happened, like the black rose, the songs that are played at the PA system in Louie's office, the Old Lee couple living at Villa 8, and the worst is what you have witnessed at the anniversary party of the Chen Corporation."

Atty. Theo: "So Luna is alive? If that will be the case, we are all dead meat. This will be the start of our nightmare."

"I won't allow it" Suzy whispered to herself. James is at daze at Suzy, "Suzy, my dear…..if that is Lily and Lady Autumn is Luna; how did they come up alive? Why they waited so many years to show themselves to us."

Then suddenly a piece of music was played and heard inside the Su's room. James remembers the song…. (youtube.com/watch?v=pkk0m_giB50) his song for Lily, their song to each other; Suzy also knew it and now that they are all hears it inside the room they all feel goosebumps. 

"Where that came from?!" Suzy shouted hysterically, James tried to push some buttons inside their room but the music goes louder and louder. Rica, Theo and Andrew saw how Suzy change from a very finesse woman to a crazy mad woman just because of a song.
