His wife is deadliest when compared to his friend’s wife’s. They never agreed to it when he use to tell it. Now he is facing her wrath…
“Then…. we will do one thing. As I couldn’t comprehend from where should I start, I will leave it for others who are idly waiting for you in your family mansion” Raymond said as he chuckled nervously.
Jean couldn’t help but raise her hands up in frustration. “Then drive fast. Why are you driving like a snail?” Jean shouted. Her mood swings clearly skyrocketed because of this boy.
“Hey…. you are acting like an old woman now. Always complaining” Jeff who is not at all experienced in handling pregnant women and their mood swings touched the most sensitive taboo that should be followed when pregnant woman is around…. their age.
“I am complaining…. When did I complain? I am just telling him to drive fast” Jean shouted and glared at her brother.
Raymond and Scott are already well habituated to this temper conditions of their pregnant wife’s. “yeah…she is just talking…when did she complain?” they both asked in unison.
This is one of the lessons they learned with experience.
Always nod your heads to whatever they tell….
Jeff looked at two of them who turned their backs at him. He couldn’t help but complain in his heart. “I think I am in fault here. Sorry sis” Jeff smiled sweetly.
He learned his first lesson…
Just don’t talk when these pregnant ladies are angry…
“Good.” Jean nodded her head and looked at Raymond. “You…drive fast. I can’t take in this suspense anymore. I want everything to be cleared today….no matter whatever it is…. I want to know” she glared at him.
If her father would have seen her now, he surely would have remembered his wife who use to cause as much as ruckus Jean is causing now.
“Baby, you are pregnant. It is better we maintain safe speed” Scott who mustered up all his energy softly said.
Jean’s eyes instantly turned soft and her hands involuntarily moved to her stomach. “Bro…drive slowly. Do you even remember that your sister is pregnant? I will ask Seline not to drive with you anymore” Jean complained again.
This time everyone remained silent as they followed her orders.
‘Uncle, you are done in your daughter’s hands today’ Raymond thought.
…..
Soon they entered the first big gate of the mansion. Just like how the other houses of council founders are designed, even this house has same level of security.
Guards with guns are seen everywhere while the tall trees shielded the road from either side of the road. After travelling for other five to ten minutes they entered the second gate of the mansion. As soon as they entered, six cars trailed them…. three at front and other three at back.
“Why so much of security?” Jeff asked. Jean and Scott are already well aware of this procedure because the head quarters of the council follow the same.
The outer segment and innermost segment are well protected from the enemies. If anyone want to invade, the only way to enter is from this middle segment that connects second gate with main gate of mansion. To avoid such things, we follow this” Raymond patiently explained.
“Who exactly is my father?” Jeff asked in wonder.
“You will find out. Little patience” Raymond answered as the car entered the last gate.
Jeff gaped in wonder as he saw the the dazzling mansion infront of him. Meanwhile Jean and Scott are not that affected because they have once been here. When they are still pursuing their studies, her mentor who is also her father brought them here once.
They never expected that they will come back here after many years.
The guards who are waiting for them swiftly opened the car doors politely and stepped back.
All together, four of them entered the mansion together.
But Jean realized that everything was changed and nothing resembled the same she saw few years back.
“Guys…why don’t you sit for five minutes. I will give heads up to those idle guys who are upstairs doing nothing but waiting for you” Raymond asked, particularly looking at Jean, waiting for her answer.
“All right” Jean nodded her head and sat down on the sofa. Mostly, she agreed because she wanted to sit.
Raymond smiled gratefully and hurried upstairs like a mouse escaping from a cat. Rick who ‘fortunately’ just returned from the headquarters saw Raymond. “How did it go? Did she…” he stopped in middle when Raymond shook his head, a big NO.
“I didn’t have enough courage to tell her. Just go and entertain the angry woman sitting downstairs. I will talk to our uncle and come” Raymond said.
Rick chuckled and nodded his head.
……
“Dad, this couldn’t be wrong…you are tricking me” Jasper complained.
“You little brat…. why will I trick you. You just underestimated me” Julian Braxton laughed as he ruffled his youngest son’s hair.
They are currently testing their hacking skills and no matter what, how much jasper tried he couldn’t even reach one percent of his father’s skill. Julian is still resting on the bed with IV still connected to his hand.
“Your knowledge should be outdated. You stayed in coma for more than four years” Jasper pouted.
“Little monkey, knowledge can never be outdated. The techniques are the one which can be outdated.” Julian chuckled at his son.
“Why are you calling me little monkey. If I am monkey, then you are also a monkey” he pouted.
As Jasper didn’t get motherly love, he is dearly loved by his father. His father has been everything to him…. father, mother, friend…. everything.
So, they are exceptionally close….
“I call you monkey because you resembled monkey when you are born” his father teased him.
“Brother, every baby will look like that when they are born. Don’t tease my little nephew much” A woman sitting on the chair beside him chuckled.
