A Joyous Day

After two weeks, they have decided to celebrate the recovery of Misha.

Everyone gathered at the small bungalow and happiness filled the place. The perfect harmony of wind, sun and sand was with the joyous atmosphere that the huge family celebrated. But, before they could fully celebrate, they secured the place first. They combed it entirely, after seeing that nothing was wrong and the security was more tight than the safe of US Federal Reserve, they started to relax.

Dr. Williams examined Misha carefully and when she finished the family thanked her one by one. Even the old man Lewis thanked her. She could only get flustered for getting such praise from them. To her, it was her duty as her doctor. She did not have done anything, it was Misha's will of living. She wanted to say it but she was overwhelmed by their treatment. She was showered with praised here and there. The important thing was Misha was already awake. All can fall in to place after.

They called over the priest who officiated their union to offer a mass of thanksgiving. They celebrated the holy Eucharist with reverend together with everyone present. The priest was delighted that the husband and wife were all okay.

After the mass, they all celebrated simply for her recovery.

Halfway during the celebration, Misha felt sleepy. She's getting tired.

"Little husband, I want to rest." Misha requested.

Lyndon seeing her building fatigue, immediately complied and carried her towards their room and tucked her into the bed.

Soon after, Misha is fast asleep. The usual loving face that he had when facing his wife was nowhere to be seen the moment he stepped out from the room.

The whole members of the family is currently present. Aside from celebrating this momentous event, they have gathered to discuss something important. Lyndon, automatically opened the conversation.

"Have you found out Belle Yang's whereabouts?" he asked as he faced the old man Lewis.

"Nope. But she will never pose any threat from you and Misha here on." the old man answered with gravity in his voice. They tracked her whereabouts but no one could tell him where she is currently now. Some of his informants told him that Belle was just in China, in the sub-urban area.

"It won't do. Knowing her, she could strike any moment." Lyndon said, afraid that what she will bring in the future.

"You already shot down her empire and her bank accounts were all frozen. Even though, her assistant took all the blame, she has still to face the charges filed against her. And no lawyer would take up her case. So, just let her go already. I know, she implicated you and Misha, but still, she's her sister and your mother's-in-law daughter. She had been living a life worse than death. And whenever she will come back. This time, I will handle her personally." the old man said. It's just that, he's not the type that have to kill people out of rage and anger but on the other hand, he could not blame Lyndon for such drastic measures.

Lyndon kept quiet after that. He had been thinking of how he will explain it all to Misha. He was about to talk again when Michele said something.

"I will tell Misha personally. It's my duty and she deserves to know the truth."

Lyndon just nodded after he thought things through. He should not be the one to tell Misha about Belle, its still different coming from her ma.

The meeting seemed like two to three people were talking. They had all the plans for the two company. The old man is currently on seat because of Misha's condition, Lyndon could not leave her and also, that was the old man wanted. He did not like that her granddaughter would be left alone.

They decided that after their public announcement, they will also inform the public about the two companies merging. It will be called as L&L Empire. Aside from changing the name, everything should be retained. From the departments to the outsourcing of the company but the key positions of the company has to be fought fairly by the people they would select.

With all that concluded, they turned back to Country A to prepare for the press conference. They have to do it because of Misha. Some of her contracts were forcefully terminated and she had penalized large sum of money for those contracts. Some of her workmates even tried to call her but it was all Duke's talking and eventually, he had used up all the excuses in the world. They could not possibly hide the truth forever, right?
