Chapter 68 The Older Brother

Hearing Alexa's name changed Ramon's demeanor in a flash. The one person that he had been longing to see, even just for a moment, he would be satisfied.The same person that had been haunting his thoughts day in and day out for the past weeks. It took him more than a decade to have the guts to express his feelings finally, only for her to vanish into thin air.

Alexa's group arrived at the Naval yards without delay, and as soon as Daniel saw the car, he quickly got out of his car and rushed to scold her for being late. Prince Alex had just left, but he wanted to introduce the two of them to each other.

"What took you so long? I had someone with me that I wanted you to meet badly.Nevertheless, we need to go back to the White House now. Father is arriving and wants to have a meeting with the whole family. Grandma would be there, too, and you would love her for sure." Daniel was speaking without taking a breather as he was very excited.

"I'm sorry! The traffic was ridiculous. We drove here as fast as we could, didn't we?" She turned her attention to Ria for backup.

"Yes, Sir! We only needed to be careful while driving. We are not above the law, you know!I don't want to get a speeding ticket." Logan speaks up in Alexa's defense.

"Nevermind that, we need to get going ASAP.Father is probably already at the White House now and waiting for us."Daniel helped Alexa out of the car to ride with him in his.

Alexa was disappointed that she needed to go back to the White House already; she didn't even have a chance to get to know her new found friend."Let me just say goodbye to them, alright?"She told Daniel with sadness in her voice, which started cracking like she was about to cry.

Lea and Eva were already out of their car and waiting for Alexa to go up to the yacht.When they saw Alexa having a conversation with a good looking young man, they couldn't help but wonder who he was.

"Lea, Eva, I'm sorry, but my relative just came to fetch me.It seems that there's an essential matter we need to attend to and we have to go back to the White House.How about we exchange our contact details and keep in touch?When I go back to the Philippines, can I... like, give you guys a call?"

Alexa was disheartened that she didn't get the chance to get to know them at all and the disappointment showed on her face.

"Sure!Why not? You don't even have to wait until you go back. You can call us anytime. How about adding us to your social media and we could chat there? What do you say?"Eva happily informed Alexa.

Lea also liked Alexa and did not mind having her as a friend.She took out one of her business cards and handed it to Alexa.

"Here!This is my business card. If you ever decide to go to showbiz, or need a manager, give me a call.I could use a talent like you.Right now, I'm only managing Eva here, and she still has a long way to go..."She gave Eva a meaningful look before she started laughing out loud.

"You are so mean!I hate you!"Eva pouted her lips and glared at Lea before lightly smacking her arm.

"Ouch!I was only playing with you, alright? But you are a newbie and still need a lot of coaching to get to the level of my number one talent, Ann Wen!Hahaha!"

"Hmph! I know that!You don't need to remind me of Cousin Ann's qualifications.She's the best at everything she does, that's why she was so lucky to snatch the number 1 bachelor in the Philippines.Hahaha!"Eva shyly commented.

"Well, she did snatch the number, but you also snatched the number 2.So, what are you complaining about?"Lea pinched Eva's side playfully.

Alexa was in awe, watching the two banter with each other.It reminded her of her cousin Andrea back in the Philippines.She needed to get this thing straightened out. Once she knew for sure that President Grant was and is her biological father, she would ask him to bring Grandma Santos and her Cousin Andrea to America.

"Ladies, I'm sorry to interrupt, but we need to get going. Can you please wrap it up?"Daniel jokingly told them, coming from behind Alexa and putting his arms around her protectively.

Alexa wasn't sure how she would introduce Daniel to Eva and Lea; she looked at Daniel for guidance.However, she had worried for naught as Daniel had already introduced himself to the two girls.

"Hello!I'm sorry for being so rude to interrupt you ladies. My name is Daniel Grant, and I'm her older brother."He informed them without hesitation that he was Alexa's dearest older brother.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Grant!"Both ladies greeted him in unison with half a smile plastered on their faces.

Lea, being thick-skinned, took the opportunity and asked Daniel if he could arrange for them to tour the White House."My two brothers told me that to get a tour at the White House we need to arrange it with some higher up politicians like a Senator of our State or something. "

"I figured that you are as high as it could get; second to the President of the Country, right?Since you live at the White House."Lea finished it up by battering Daniel like a turkey ready to be put inside the oven for Thanksgiving.

Daniel thought that Lea was cute and funny. And she was the little sister of the twins."It shouldn't be a problem. Just let Logan or Lucas know when you want to come, and Alexa and I would personally give you a tour."He happily informed them before taking Alexa back to the White House...
