Rose hung up the call and caught hold of her car keys, sprinting outside. She was dressed in her black monochrome leggings and black crop, tank top. She did not even bother to change and left the house as it is.
Rhehan was the first one to reach, his mother's house and he pressed the door bell, feeling like a lightening was about to fall on him. The house maid opened the door and smiled looking at Rhehan.
"Hello! Where is Lizie Aunty?"
"Hello! She is in the second living room, waiting for you!" The maid replied pleasantly.
"Thank you!"
He slowly walked towards the living room, as if approaching the danger slowly. Suddenly the bell rang again and Rhehan sprinted quickly ahead now, already guessing who is was. "Ohh! Darn!! Master is here!!"
He entered the living room, and saw Elizabeth sulking in one corner, looking at the newspaper.
Rhehan gulped walking towards her. "Go...Good morning m..mom!!!" Rhehan pursed his lips in nervouseness.
Elizabeth glared at the man and the man backed off a few steps instantly. She was simply glaring at the man, wanting to thrash him there and then.
Soon Xio Lee entered the living room, looking at Rhehan too. He was giving the same dreadful stare to him.
Rhehan's nervouseness was crossing leaps and bounds. "What's with the silent stares guys!! Altleast speak something!! Don't scare the shit out of me!!!"
"We are scaring the shit out of you. Or you scared the shit out of us!! Huh?" Elizabeth finally spoke up.
"Ohk! In my defence, I was drunk!!" Rhehan raised his hands, as if accepting his defeat and asking for a punishment.
"That is all you have to say??!!! You were drunk!!!" Xio Lee shouted at the boy.
Rhehan pursed his lips, not speaking a word further. Suddenly the door bell rang again and Rhehan heaved a sigh of relief. Finally Rose is here, to help me!!
But soon Lillian walked inside the living room, looking at the boy with the same dreadful eyes. Rhehan was standing near a couch, while the three adults were sitting and just starring at him.
Rhehan was waiting for Rose to come, but the girl had yet not reached. Suddenly a message popped in his phone's screen and he read it quietly.
Hubby: I am outside the gate. But not coming inside at all. I'll wait till you calm them down.
Nympho Wifey: What the hell!! Just come inside and help me!!
Hubby: No Rhehan! They will kill me. I can not.
Nympho Wifey: You traitor. Wait and watch now!!!
Hubby: Hah!! What will you do. Just tell me when coast is clear. Bye!!
Nympho wifey: How bad Rose!! You are a traitor, don't think i'll be the only one to get bashed. I'll make sure, you get it too now!!!
Rhehan switched off his screen and looked at the three adults again. "Ohk! Fine! I know it was a mistake, I am sorry. But honestly, I love Rose. At that time, when Rose proposed me with the idea, it was the only way out for me to have a family! How could I refuse? I was an orphan then, how would I let a chance like this? I could not let the opportunity slip from my hands!!" Rhehan made an exaggerated sad face, immediately melting the three adult's heart.
He then looked at them again, smiling internally micheviously. "And...As far as Rose is concerned, I have no idea, why she did not tell it to you guys. Had I been in her place, I would have asked you guys and probably waited for my family's approval. I don't know what made her take such a big step!!!"
Rhehan pursed his lips, trying to hide his smile. Rhehan had neatly slammed the ball in her court now!!!
