Chapter 346 - 346 That Should Be Me (6)

Ethan handed back Luna's letter to Louie, as soon as Louie received it, he carefully folded it and went immediately to his room to hide it in his luggage. He will keep it, he will keep it even though it gives him a heartbreaking feeling. "I'll call a spade a spade when I speak to Luna later. I'll explain everything to her," Louie said to himself as he secures Luna's letter in the secret pocket of his luggage that is provided by the HADES. For Louie, he needs to jump at the opportunity that is given to him by Luna's husband, brothers and friends, and most especially his kids. 

-----LET'S FAST FORWARD----  ​​

At the venue, music can be heard even on the outside of the ballroom. Everyone wears their best suits and gowns.  Luna wears a blue and white vintage dress with some floral design, round neckline, and the length is until the ankle and it has a fit and flare. It has a white belt and long blue sleeves. Even though she is pregnant, she still glows, while Viscount wears a three-piece white suite and an out coat of black with the emblem of the HADES. All HADES men and women who are in relationsh.i.p.s, wear a matching outfit. The right-hand guys who are not committed yet wear a three-piece blue suit that makes them very enigmatic to the women of the Phantom's. 

Luna and Francois walk toward Louie and his friends, they have someone with them who is very beautiful and with a very curvy body. "Good Evening, Louie" Luna greeted her ex-husband who is now staring at her with his mouth open. "Close your mouth, Mr. Louie Chen. You might catch a fly on it if you don't close it" Viscount Francois said in a teasing tone. Francois knew that his Queen will look gorgeous in her dress, he was the one who picks that dress for tonight's event. 

"Louie got conscious and immediately close it. "I'm sorry, Good Evening Luna" Louie replied even though he wants to embrace and kiss Luna he can't do that anymore, he controls his emotions and he felt a pang in his c.h.e.s.t upon seeing how sweet and loving Luna towards Francois. Then both Ethan and Kim also greeted the two royalties as per their companion they just smiled for they didn't know her identity. 

Luna smiled at both Kim and Ethan, "Ethan I want you to meet, Lady Emerald Dawson. She is Princess Rosela's first cousin and she will be your date for tonight" says Luna. Emerald smiled at Ethan and bow as a courtesy to a newfound acquaintance. Ethan also bowed as a gesture of a Knight to a Princess. "Kim, your date. Pearl will be coming any moment now. You two will join us in the first dance, and all you need to do is be yourself. Confess whatever feelings that you had in yourself about her. This will be one chance that we HADES will give to you, for if you will not grasp this moment, then the men around him will not give you an opportunity again" Francois informs Kim. Kim was surprised by the Viscounts' words, he didn't expect that he will be given a chance of a lifetime for him to express his feelings to the woman who had to change his mindset about relationsh.i.p.s towards the opposite gender.

I.T. Room

"Let's make sure that the event will be a live telecast and can only be shown through Sofia and Suzy's television channel, their friends, and even to James and Mia Chen. They need to see how happy our Mom and so-called father is while they celebrate New Year's Day. And also make sure to send our family picture to Sofia, the picture of Uncle Peaches pictures with Pretty Isa to the woman who had the heart to seduce him and most especially to the woman who tried to snatch Uncle Harry towards our Gorgeous Amber" Winter order his people at the I.T. Room. January and his people shook their heads as they know what the little prince wants to do. He wants to torture those people in the most sadistic way. For them, mental torture is the worst punishment that the people of HADES could do to their captives.

VENUE

The party started in bliss, the twins wear prince and princess outfits just like what their grandparents would like to wear for them. A pink gown for Dawn and a three-piece sky blue suit for Winter. Louie is very proud upon seeing his children, he also had a chance to dance with his daughter and he asks Ethan to take a video of it. Ethan gladly accepts the job as he can see the excitement of his friend. Kim on the other hand felt so uneasy for he still can't see Pearl, although he already saw the five right-hand guys together with the Saunders twins. Emerald chuckled upon seeing him, "Don't worry, your date will be here any moment now. Lady Luna wants Pearls' makeover to be perfect, and don't worry the big bosses already agreed on this so all you need to do is to wait. Remember, patience is a virtue" says Emerald in a very soft voice. Ethan suddenly snaps his head towards Emerald, he didn't expect that his date has a lovely voice. Emerald already senses Ethan's stare, "Mr. Ethan, you are capturing Mr. Louie Chen's dance with our little bun Dawn. You must have a perfect angle of it, for it is once in a lifetime moment. We all don't know if he will be given a chance like this in the future" Emerald blurted out and Ethan instantly got back on what he is doing. 

Then the emcee announces about the family photoshoot that will take place on the stage, as the emcee called family by family, one by one, and partners by partners; everyone who is present there clapped their hands. But when it comes to Louie, when this named was called together with Luna and the kids there is complete silence. As if they will rip and snapped his head anytime if he did something wrong or his moves will hurt Luna. Kim and Ethan could sense that all the eyes of the people at the venue were on Louie, especially the Knights, the right-hand guys, and the big bosses. Louie's father, Edward Chen is just observing, and it seems he is calculating every single movement of his son as he walks on the stage where Luna and the kids are waiting for him. The family photoshoot took five pictures of them, the first and second one was a picture of Louie and Luna as a couple, the third and fourth one was Louie and the kids, and the last one was the four of them. 

"Francois, don't you think the photoshoot has something to do with the kids' plans? The smile of Winter is very evil and Dawn's eyes sparkle with an evil glint" says Dimitri as he observes the movements of the twins, especially when they ask for the two couples-like pictures of Louie and Luna. "That's what I am afraid of Dimitri. I think the twins' are plotting or shall I ay planning mind torture towards someone. I think they want someone to suffer on this special day" Francois remark as they both observe the kids smirking faces and eye-to-eye communication. Francois breathes deeply as the photo shoot comes to an end and he immediately strides towards Luna as his Queen stands up from the couch. 

Then the right moment that Louie has come, it is time for the dance that he asks for. He was just surprised knowing that he will have the first dance before the couples' dance that the HADES always had at their events. 

Louie held Luna's hand and guide her into the dance floor, he made sure that Luna will not trip for his Luna is pregnant with twins again, it may not be his child but still, it was his Luna's child. Everyone stared at them as they want to see if he will do any harm to their Moon, as the song Hold me in your arms again (youtube.com/watch?v=mmRv7TuNKtc) started to play, Louie and Luna start to dance, and they are the only ones at the center of the dance floor. Viscount Francois is just watching them together with the rest of the royalties, they are like a hawk as they gave special treatment towards the two people who are dancing. The twins already gave the rest of the guards to become alert at all costs since they don't trust Louie after the family photoshoot… they still don't trust him that much. 

Louie swayed at a very slow pace, for he didn't want Luna to feel dizzy. "Luna, this is one of my unspoken words for you. I thought I could hold you once again in my arms just like before. I also want to tell you that I made a vow that I will win your heart once again, that was before you got married to the Viscount." Louie expresses his words to Luna while they are dancing as he stared at Luna's eyes. 

Before Luna could speak, Louie interrupted her. Luna, I'm sorry it didn't work out between us. I'm sorry I pushed you away. But after knowing that I have finally learned that you are the one I love, all these feelings I have in you, I regretted it. I am devastated, especially when the news broke up to us that you die at the train station gang war. I'm sorry for ending before we have even begun. I'm a terrible person….a very terrible husband and a very terrible father. I wish I could make it up to and most especially to the kids...."
