Palace, City of Wise

As everyone disperses from the I.T. Department, they immediately went to the conference hall of equality. Dimitri sends a message to his father to the other great bosses, Scarlet sends a message to Yuan and asks him to put Isabele to sleep so that he could join them to the meeting and Francois sends a message to Wu triplets parents, Edward, Allen, and the Cheung Elders.​​

Yuan informs Isabele about the meeting and asks her to take a rest for they don't want her to be stress out about the problems. Isabele understands and she immediately allows Yuan to take part. Yuan didn't forget to kiss his wife and left her for a while as he went to the room where the table of equality is, he was ushered by one of the shadow guards of the Isabele. 

As everyone gathers and settles down at the table of equality (just like knights of the round table), they all took their seats according to rank, and besides them are their wives and/or their fiancées'. Before the great bosses went to the equality room, Dimitri ordered January to send the full coverage that they gathered at the Villa 7 of Louie and he also ordered him to send some copies to the Cheung Elders, Yuan, and Harry so that they will have an idea of what their agenda will be.

Lucas is very furious as he watches the footage, Harry and Yuan's face darkened and both Marcus and Leah Wu clench their fists. "How could they ask for custody right? How could they have an idea like these?" Eva Cheung blurted out. Edward closes his eyes for he didn't know why his parents are doing such things like this, for they all knew that it was Louie's fault why the marriage has been broken. Allen pats his best friends' shoulder while Lily bowed her head as she closes her eyes. 

"The Chen Elders can't do anything about the twins' surname, for they are registered as a Vallini and in few days come they will be a Vendari for Francois will adopt them because my daughter and the Viscount is already married" Duke Lawrence informs everyone.

"Lily, Elder Old Master Lucas, and Madam Eva, I am sorry for these inconveniences that my parents are planning. I have no idea that they knew about the existence of the twins' and I don't know either about those schemes that they have in their mind as of the moment" Edward tells Lily and the Cheung Elders. He can't figure out why do his parents still want to use their family ties with the Cheung, "I knew that the family ties has been cut off between us from the moment Louie divorce Luna and it is also my fault that I didn't protect Luna from the evil plans of Louie and Mia. If only I paid attention to Luna's well-being while they are at Villa 7, maybe these things didn't happen." Edward added.

"Edward!" Lily called him. "Edward! listen, it is not your fault, there are certain decisions that Louie had made in the past and even if you oppose that divorce, he can still leave my daughter for he was blinded and fooled by Sofia. It's just that, he didn't open his eyes and listen to his heart to see what is a true gem and what is fake. I know that you don't have any idea about this for they also cut ties to you and Louie for what happened to Luna" says Lily. 

Duke Lawrence and the rest of the Great Bosses are looking at him, and Edward could feel their gazes that burrow right through his skin and to his bones. "Don't worry Mr. Edward, our people already investigated these and they already told us that you are clean" Dimitri informs him and Edward already felt relieved. 

"Does Louie already informed about the Chen Elder's plans?" Harry asks them as his eyes look at the people around him. "I think we need to inform Louie about the plans of his grandparents, but the adoption of the twins' may take a big blow of pain on him. But he can't do anything about it as he already knew that it will happen anytime. Maybe, if we can tell him about the plans and keep the adoption secret for a while to him" Yuan butts in. 

Duke Lawrence and Viscount Christian stared at both Yuan and Harry, Viscount Christian knew that the two is right about what they have said and they also have an idea of how Louie will feel about the adoption. 

Harry: "We can inform Louie and show him these videos, then we can talk to him on how the Chen Elders got the news about the twins' existence that's one. Second on how the Chen Elders could still plot something about Luna by using the Cheung Elders, and lastly and why do the Elders are so badly in need of an heir to the family."

Countess Helen Rose: What do we plan about this schemes Lawrence?"

Duchess Anastasia: "Francois, when you will be adopting the twins?"

Luna: "Mom, Francois, and I are planning to talk to the twins tonight and we will inform them that they will be adopted by Francois a day after tomorrow."

Old Master Lucas: "Why wait for that Moon? Francois, son…adopt the twins tomorrow and make it live on national and international television so that Rafael and Clara will know that the twins' has a father like Francois."

Lily: "Dad! Don't pressure the kids"

Old Master Lucas: "I am not pressuring them. I just want to make it fast, so that Rafael and Clara can't do anything about these custody rights and whatsoever you call it. I also want to show them that our Moon has already found and married to a man who could love her with all his heart and soul and also become a wife slave for the rest of his life."

Francois and Luna blushed upon hearing Old Lucas's words especially when the old man mentioned being a wife slave, and almost all the men inside the equality room coughed. The great Bosses wives laugh at the old mans' words for he was right and it seems it runs to the blood of the royals. 

"I actually plan to do it tomorrow grandpa, Luna and I just want to talk to the kids tonight so that they will know about it. We will be needing them once we have signed the doc.u.ments of adoption for we need to have a family picture after that and it will be published here at the City of Wise," Francois informs Old Lucas. 

"Uncle Lucas, I think we must ask first Samantha about the legalities on this case. We all knew that Louie and Luna got easily married when they encourage both of you about the scheme of having an illness way back then" Marcus Wu's voice was heard. Marcus is just like a brother to Lily and a father/uncle to Luna. 

Samantha: "Dad, I will just write a draft first about the adoption, all I need is to go to the Registry of name, and asks the people there what are the requirements in this case. Duke Lawrence…Uncle, I will be needing some of you people who are working as your lawyers so that we can process it immediately." 

"Okay we will do that, I will call my team of lawyers and I will order them unto this case. Lawrence you and Lily must also file your marriage license for I have this hunch that it's either Lily or Luna that they will demand to became Edward or Louie's wife. As I can see on the video, they still didn't have any idea about Luna getting married to Francois" Prince Timothy Voronov informs them all. 

"Audrey, please call Judge Gabrielle Sandoval and ask her to come here tonight for dinner. Please tell her it's code orange, she will know what we mean by that and please tell her that she doesn't need to be in formal attire and tell her that Luna is already married and carrying her godsons' genes" says Duchess Anastasia to Audrey that she immediately work on it. 

"But we also need to plan for Lawrence Civil wedding tomorrow… and Lily…Lawrence …No But's and What if's for you are old enough to be shy on this kind of matter. And you two already consummated your marriage" Duchess Clarisse Marie di Lucchesi informs everyone. And because of that Lily blush and Lawrence shook his head as he lets out a bashful laugh. 

"And we will not argue on that idea. For we also want another Luna or a male heir that we can called grandson coming from Lily's genes" Eva Cheung proudly informs everyone. And for what she had said, it earned a laughter from everyone but for Lily she already wants to dig a hole and hide from it. 

"I would love to be the godfather of your child Lily and Duke Lawrence. Allen is Luna's godfather and this time it's my turn," says Edward in a teasingly manner.
