10 10. Night
Layla huffed, slumped onto her chair table inside the teacher room. Her head throbbed, feeling distressed over the day.
' Am I that old to actually can't control those little monsters called teenagers? Are they still kids?' So energetic and hyperactive, giving her a headache. Her first class, Evan's own class was filled with monsters.
She already feeling regret to be a teacher in this school. Even though she at the same time felt grateful that Evan was so cooperative and silence at most time, but it differs from the others.
" Feeling tired, Teacher Rose?" A soft voice of a middle-aged woman snapped Layla back to her present. She turned to her left side and saw the Classical Teacher, Teacher Wang smiling at her.
" Obviously, Teacher Wang. What a day..." She sighed, taking the drink that was offered to her from Teacher Wang. The woman laughed at her straightforward words. Well, at least this young teacher is not pretentious and fake.
" Ah, what a relief. Thanks, Teacher Wang." Layla smiled at the woman in a graceful manner. She put down the mug on the table and began to check her another teaching schedule. Another two classes, huh...
Looking at Layla's dejected expression, Teacher Wang laughed and shake her head in amusement. This young teacher is truly interesting. However, remembering this young teacher status as a married woman, Teacher Wang felt pity. She thought about her only son that busy with business and still unmarried, she felt troubled and worried.
' Ahh, such a pity...' Teacher Wang sighed in regret. Unknown to both Adrian and Layla, the former successfully fend off the very first rival of his.

Inside the sports car, Evan looked at Layla in amusement. He clearly saw how troubled Layla was in his class this morning. It looks like sister didn't have any patience towards the teenagers. He chuckled internally.
'Oh, Uncle. I tried to help you here.' He secretly sent a voice recording he got this morning to Adrian that still in his office room.
I pray for your success, Uncle...
" What are you happy about?" Layla asked. She saw a weird smile from Even. A slightly uncomfortable feeling emerged from her heart.
" Hm? Nothing much~" Even calmly put his phone into his bag and slowly humming a song he remembered. Layla raises her brows but didn't continue to ask again. A teenager like him should have more secret than an adult.

They arrived later from Adrian. When the two went inside the manor, they saw Adrian already sat comfortably at the sofa, reading the newspaper. He lifted his gaze towards the two, no, correctly to the tired beauty, his brows frowned in displeasure.
" Welcome back the both of you," He put down the newspaper at the tea table and rise in his feet.
" We're back. Uncle, you are early tonight." Evan blinked his eyes knowingly at Adrian. He knows why this man early tonight. He scoffed internally.
' Hmph! Don't forget about your promise, Uncle.' Evan sent an eyes message to Adrian. The later coughed and nodded.
' I know, brat.'
" Hungry?" He asked, ignoring Layla's blatant staring at his body.
" Yes!" The two answered at the same time but carried a different meaning in it.
Adrian chuckled at her boldness, but after thinking about their night, he let it go. ' No worries, baby girl. You're mine tonight...'
" Eat or take a shower first?" He asked, leading them to the dining room.
" Eat!" Layla.
" Shower!" Evan.
Adrian laughed internally at their different answers. It should be Layla answer to shower first, not eat.
" Really, sister? Eat?" Evan gazes sternly at Layla's. She huffed.
" Hey, I'm famished, alright? All of your classmates are truly troublesome. Not giving me a good time to teach one thing. Dare to prank me one thing. If not thinking those monsters are still kids, I'll teach them a world lesson." Layla walked towards the chair that prepared for her and sat down to wait to be served.
Looking at her ugly face, the two Uncle and Nephew laughed internally. Monsters, huh...nice nickname you gave us, sister. But, the biggest monster is inside this house, you know?
