Chapter 578 - Shopping with Big Brother Part 1

Zendaya received from Laurence that he had a new sister and then an upcoming baby brother. She smiled and send her greetings. Probably gift for his sister.

Zendaya: What's her name?

Laurence: Esme.

Zendaya: Age?

Laurence: 12 years old.

Zendaya: Sis she going to enter in the Empire Academy?

Laurence: Not sure about that.

Zendaya: Spoil your sister.

Laurence: What are you talking about?

Zendaya: Nothing.

Zendaya hummed and smiled as Timothy massaged her legs. Timothy is a good boyfriend. She just wished that he is, and he won't turn back from her. She's too young to fall in love so much like this. Maybe it is what it should be.       

"Thank you." Zendaya bent down and kissed Timothy's lips. Timothy sat beside her and hugged her tightly and give her lots of kisses on her face. "Let's do it." She whispered.

"Nope. I am playing hard to get at this moment." He grinned at her. She pouted at him. That adorable pout is one thing that he couldn't resist.

"Come on." She whispered.

"Zendaya, stop harassing, Timothy for God's sake!"

Zendaya frowned at her father. Timothy only laughed and patted Zendaya's head.

"Stop harassing me, babe." Timothy put away her hands as she grinned.

"Damn you!" Zendaya smacked his chest and stood and left him.

"Zen-Zen!" Timothy called.

"Tim, let's see the designs," Zach said and Timothy nodded and followed him to the bas.e.m.e.nt where the triplets are working over something.

His eyes wander around, and his eyes darted to the suits.

"I need a new suit design. And these triplets are going to install more devices in the suit. But it should be lightweight, flexible, and very comfortable.���

"Sure."

"Your salary will depend on the design you will give," Zach told.

"Oh, wow." He admired the suits, made for men and women and then girls and boys.

"Each of them should wear suits whenever they will be exposed to some crowds. So, the girls wouldn't just wear dresses at a specific event. Each of their gowns will be installed body bulletproof."

"Wow." That's all he could say.

"So, stop flirting with my daughter and more on working. You should wait for ten years more before you got to marry her."

"Yes, sir." Timothy nodded. He needed to work double.

The girl that he's going to marry isn't just a simple girl that would buy every jewelry and expensive things in the world. She's someone that would lead their Empire, the Next Generation that would continue their family legacy.

"You can work here at the weekend. I'll give you a room in the west wing."

"I can't work this out in my penthouse?" He asked.

"No. This is highly classified and there will be a possibility that our enemy could steal this. There will a possibility that you will steal this and sell it." He told him. "I don't fully trust you, Timothy. I only trust my triplets." He said looking over at triplets who are busy.

Cyra is busy on the microscope experimenting on mice and Luke and Logan are testing few things from the inventions. Timothy smiled just seeing them.

"They are your genius team," Tim said.

"Thank you," Zachary said. "It's a good thing that we have been given a triplet besides of Zendaya and Wynter."

Laurence took a bath, groom himself as usual and put his shirt on, and then walking shorts. He brushed his hair to dry it and then mess it like he always wears. And then, he took one of his baseball caps, put his phone, sliding it to the phone case.

He got out and creased his brows when Emma come out wearing the same thing from a while ago.

"Is that you are going to wear outside?" He asked.

"Y-yes." She mumbled.

"Yup. Mom is right, you need to change your wardrobe."

"Its—fine."

"It's not fine. Your room has lacked decorations. Mom didn't want to buy it herself because she wanted you to choose what you wanted." He approached her and patted her head and put his arm over her small shoulders. "Okay, baby sis. You stop acting so shy around. We are siblings right from this moment."

Esme stiffen and he told her to relax and she did relax as they walked downstairs. Her mother is smiling. He never saw her happy like this and excited.

"I am coming." Percy grinned. "We need to buy new clothes and stuff for baby Zayne."

"Baby Zayne?" Esme asked.

"Yup. We are also adopting a baby boy." She told. Esme nodded with a smile.

Their car is even more luxurious yet simple. It's heavily tinted and Percy is driving the car with another car tailing them said to be their bodyguards. She didn't expect them to have a bodyguard.

"What's your number?" Laurence asked Esme.

"Uh," Esme mumbled. Laurence stared at her for a while and nodded.

"We'll check out new phones from Pattinson Company. My Uncle rebuilt it and my dad design it. It will be a good use for you."

Esme only nodded.

"Don't worry," Percy said as he glanced at the rear mirror. "Your brother is very rich. He started making his own money at the age of fourteen."

"Twelve, dad." Laurence corrected.

"Oh, was it twelve?" Percy creased his brows.

Laurence listened as her mother talked about changes in her room and how she wanted it. Her mother is willing to give everything to this girl. He just wished that this girl won't break his mother's heart.

They soon reach the mall.

"Okay, stay close together, do not go solo," Percy said like it was a drill. "Laurence, protect your sister."

"Roger that," Laurence mumbled as he kept typing on his phone. "They set a dinner meeting tomorrow." He told.

"Great. We need a red dress for Esme."

Esme looked like it was a bad thing. And he guessed that she doesn't own any dress. He chuckled and he opened the door as he stepped out and his father immediately come out and open the car door for her mother as he usually does.

One of their bodyguards opened the car door for Esme. They first went to the girl's section and he only sat down on the sofa and chat his cousins, checking the usual torture of their siblings. He smiled seeing little Zavannah holding a bow and arrow as her mother teach her how to use it. Then, Kade and Levi played with their little sister in the playhouse or more like a little castle for Zavannah that their father spoiled her into.

Then, there are the triplets with their usual experiments. The twins, Rhys, and Raiden are their sister's nude model. Demi and Christian sparring and then others on their stuff.

During the weekend, he might be on their houses or in a family gathering and train a lot with them. His phone chimes as a notification and Natalia and Nathaniel posted a clip of them with their parents and siblings.

He slid his phone back in his pocket and watched as his mother pick dresses for Esme. He stood and looked around to help them. She's wearing a baggy t-shirt so he's unable to determine the dress that she should wear.

Esme looked down at the red dresses.

"Should it supposed to be red?" Esme asked.

"Yes. It's Empire gathering." She told her. "I'll explain it to you when we get back home."

He took the red dress with a short sleeve that is made in lace fabric and it's a little balloon and the top part will shape someone's body. He pointed it to her.

"This one." He told.

"Nice," Ash grinned. "Try this on and this." She gave a few other dresses and she called for the sales lady to attend her.

Laurence walked around the store and his father came.

"Rence, can you helped Esme buy a few of her clothes and gadgets or anything for her room?"

"Wait, hon, I need to help her choose for comfortable garnets." Ash winked at him and Percy nodded, and they wait. Ash entered the dressing room and her voice could be heard from outside of the dressing room.

"I think mom is happy with the outcome," Laurence told his father. Percy grinned and nodded.

"Your mom is super excited with a daughter."

"Yup. I can see that." Laurence nodded.

"You take care of our Esme while your mom and I shop for your baby brother."

"Sure." Laurence nodded.

"She won't be very comfortable for a short time. Make her feel at home and welcome."

"She is very welcome," Laurence told. "Dad, she'll be comfortable if time gets by. You don't need to worry about that. Besides, I'll be away from school."

"We need to discuss to her about Empire Academy."

"I think she's not ready for it," Laurence told. "She doesn't even have an idea about our family."

"Soon, she will." He patted his back. They sat down on the sofa and waited. Then, Ash gave it to the saleslady.

"She doesn't like that ruffle one," Ash told.

They waited as the girls shop for more dresses and whatever it is that is needed.
