Chapter 353 - 354 Elder Chen’s Bitter Taste of Medicine (2)

Rafael remembered the image of the sixth portrait, he was the one who chooses a particular image from the camera to be printed and make one of a memorable couple's portraits of Louie and Luna. 

"Rafael saw how hopeful his wife was as of the moment. She is expecting to have some moments alone with their grandchildren. "I know someone is playing schemes with us, Clara. But I don't want to burst the bubble, this is the only time you let out a smile and sparkle in your eyes once again" Rafael said to himself.  ​​

Palace, City Wise; I.T. Department

"Items are already delivered at the Villa 7 little Dawn. The Elders are very happy to see the six paintings, they are already expecting your arrival, I suppose" January the head of the I.T Team reported to Dawn through their earpiece. 

Winter and Dawn smiled and said their thanks to January. Francois caught the exchanging glances of the twins and he already knows that they are up to something. "The Hawks are striking back Dimitri, they are exchanging communication looks," Francois told Dimitri as he tilts his head towards the twins who are sitting beside Duke Lawrence and Lily. Dimitri immediately stared at the twins' when he heard Francois's words. "I think the twins' are giving the taste of someone's own bitter medicine once again. Let's just pray that those people who had tasted it and don't have a faint heart, " says Dimitri the two men look at each other and breathe deeply. 

On the side of the twins. "Good-looking January, send the file video to the Villa 7, make it sure that the delayed telecast will also be shown, as we will make some announcement later" Winter ordered January who is the head of the I.T Team. January and his team already had plans to show the video of Luna's wedding to Viscount Francois up to the current situation at the Palace. It was already planned by them, the twins Scarlet, and Ryder. The Great Bosses also gave their blessings to their said plans. The twins want to send a message to the grandparents of their so-called father that they will and they don't want to become a Chen.

City A; Villa 7

"Rafael, I know, Luna gave Louie so many chances and forgave him many times until the Chen Annual Party that she couldn't do it and hold on anymore. She still wanted to believe, tried to believe, and still ended up getting hurt by our grandson" Clara speaks again as she stood up and walks in front of the family portrait of Louie and the kids. 

Before Rafael could answer there is a ping sound on his Ipad, he took it and opened a link, a video that was sent to him by an unknown sender, he called him so that they both could watch it. The sender messages them that they need to see it since it was a gift to them by Macaria and Zagreus. Clara sat beside her husband and they were both confused about the names of the sender, Rafael clicks the file and they were astonished at the content of the file. The video started by showing pictures of Luna's journey to pregnancy, and how Viscount Francois turned ballistic when she gave birth to the hospital. The brows on Rafael's face furrow while Clara's face turned ashen. "Who is this man Rafael? Why is he acting up like he was Luna's husband? And where the hell is that place!" Clara's voice roared up around the living room of the Villa. 

"Clara, I don't know. Let's watch first the video so that we will know their relationship. But I think this has something to do about the gifts that we received today" Rafael reasoned out to his wife. 

Clara's tears flow like a river, her heartaches as she could see the sweet smile of Luna of the man named Viscount Francois Andrei Vendari. "Why is she marrying someone and yet she had a portrait with our Louie?! Is Luna playing our grandson's heart this time? IS she taking revenge?!" Clara's voice is now trembling. Rafael didn't know what to say, as a matter of fact, it is Louie who started first. If Louie didn't cheat and betrayed Luna in the first place, things will not have turned out to be like this----a messed and f*c**d up life especially for their children.

Then, they also saw the video of what happened at the Chen Annual Party, the Gala Party of the Vendari, and Vallini wherein Autumn was already introduced as Luna. The twins' are introduced, Clara felt she can't breathe about the sudden news. But she still wants to watch so that she will know what plans she needs to do to win Luna back to Louie's arms. For Clara, by hook or by crook the twins need to be a Chen no matter what the outcome will be and no matter what she needs Luna to be with Louie in his life. Rafael closed his eyes, especially when he saw Edward's face when his son saw his grandchildren. 

Then the video also showcased the picnic of Louie and the twins together with Kim and Ethan. "So they are all together, Ethan and Kim will definitely help Louie. They will help our grandson to have the twins" Clara once again speaks up like a crazy mother hen.

What they didn't expect was the next episode were in, they saw the signing of some other people. The adoption states that the twins are now a Vendari and Francois is their legal father. And it also shows the authenticity of it as the lawyers and judges of the high court approve it. It has also shown the doc.u.ments that Louie once signed five years ago that he is waiving his rights, all of his rights to whatever Luna has --- it's either a living or non-living thing and it includes the twins.

Clara shook her head, she becomes hysterical as her body trembles. Rafael immediately puts down his iPad and embraces his wife. "No!!! No!!! It can't be! Rafael! Rafael, I will not accept this kind of situation. The twins are Chen's! They will bear the surname of Louie!" Clara shouted as she wants to throw the iPad.  Rafael consoles his wife, his heart also aches for what he had just watched. He also had so many questions, questions that need an answer, but yet it can only be answered once Louie and his friends come back from where ever place they are now. 

"Hush...Hush.... Clara, please don't cry. We will resolve the problems that we have. All we need to do is be open-minded to whatever explanations of both Louie and Luna. We must be very lenient to whatever decision we will do because we don't know our enemies. We don't know the background of the people who are helping Luna, the person whom she got married with and lastly, who are the people who decided and help that Vendari guy to adopt our great-grandchildren" Rafael whispered to Clara's ears as he still hugs Clara and consoles her.
