"Who was that?" Camilla asked, "Well if you can guess by the annoying voice it's Father he wants us to go to the Mansion tonight and he also said that we should bring our families to dinner he has someone important he'd like to introduce." I replied then rolled my eyes "I guess we better call our significant others and tell them to bring the animals" Celina said making us all laugh " When he said he had someone important he wants us to meet I think he means someone below average." Camilla said crossing her arms making us laugh once more as we all part our ways to collect our partners and children to go to the repetitious meeting of our Fathers intolerable lover.

" I'm home! Get dressed quickly we are going to Gb's house!" I shouted while taking shoes off and go upstairs to change my clothes, I wore a black tube dress with a length above my lower thighs and had a slit on the side that showed off my curves perfectly with a golden belt for a more defined waistline, and my usual curled hair, dark red lipstick, and my Luis Vuitton heels and after getting ready I put my phone, lighter, pack, and gun in my clutch and sprayed a bit of perfume on before going outside to be greeted by Crystal and Mateo. Crystal is wearing a red floral dress with white sandals and a golden headband. Looking cute and elegant as always. While Mateo wore a black suit that is unbuttoned in the two top buttons with black ripped jeans and plain black shoes that he wears in the office with his hair pulled back with a little bit of gel, looking handsome as ever " Are you guys ready to go?" I asked while fixing Crystal's dress and Mateo's suit " Yes we're ready! " Crystal replies with a cute smile and with that we leave.

Cleodora P. O. V.

As we entered we were greeted by a man that looked like he was in his 60s he had Grey hair and was a little smaller than I was he had brown eyes and a pointed nose. " Good morning Cleo Darling long time no see." he said as he opened his arms for a hug "Uncle Joe!! I missed you so much how have you been?" I said as I immediately respond to his hug "Your father's looking for you his waiting in the Dining room, Good luck she's a pain." He said and winked before leaving. As I walk I saw something that I hated to see when I'm here it was our family portrait as I saw it I glided past it not wanting to see it more as I was about to enter the room I heard laughter until "You know Camilla you should really tell your son to have some manners and Cellina your husband is rude and so indigent, And Btw Cayson you wife is a total gold digger if you want I could set you up with someone better, and also Cayden is your tongue really that ill-mannered, and lastly Jace does your eldest always fails to be punctual I guess your Mother really raise you poorly. too bad. " She said with a disgusted and annoyed look on her face. As I burst in through the dining room doors "You have no right to insult how we were raised because you weren't the one who raised us! and who gave you the right to insult my family? Thirdly don't you dare mention that sick woman in front of me and lastly Father if you can't control your lap dog at least put a leash on her I won't let this slide easily. " I said turning my gaze to him before I left to go to my old room being followed by my siblings "Look she can insult me all she wants but there is no way I'm letting your names of her filthy mouth she's such a b*tch! When I told Mateo that I will behave and be nice and try to like her for Father. Well you can forget about that now! If Cayden is ill-mannered then what is she? a slap in the soil!?" They all burst out laughing at what I said "Rumor has it the daughter is worse and not to mention that the daughter's fiance is hot and the total opposite of them." Celina whispered but enough for us to hear "I'll believe it when I see it but I'm kinda curious how can the daughter manage to catch someone like that if she's like Julie-anne? Can you show me a picture? " I asked while sitting beside Celina on the settee then she took out her phone and showed me a picture of Julie-anne's daughter well honestly she's prettier than her mother and there is no doubt that she must look like her father because there is nothing similar between her and Julie-anne except for the hair their both blonde and Julie-anne's daughter has a round pointed nose, plump lips, defined jawline, a small chest, pale skin, and a thin waist but thinking of it now that I have seen her she kinda looks familiar awfully familiar it's like I've seen her somewhere or she looks like a specific someone that I just can't quite put my finger on it. "Hey, I also want to thank you for sticking up for all of us earlier." Cayden said while hugging me and I returned the hug but soon pushed him away not wanting them to think hugging me now is okay. " No worries I would never hesitate to protect you from anyone remember we're family and we'll always be together always and forever. " Now I think Uncle Joe left me a bottle here somewhere." And with that, we all chuckled cause we already knew where he put it as we were pouring our drinks we heard something break downstairs.

*SMASH*

As we heard the loud noise downstairs. we instantly sprinted downstairs as fast as we could, and as we reached downstairs we saw someone we never thought in a million years we'll ever see
