Mixed Feelings // Family

‹A fool›

It was the thought that all the members of the Genetic Council had upon hearing Alex's offers.

They never expected that the disobedience of that woman would give them so many benefits.

They are well aware of the great assets that Genosha possesses.

Especially in medicine and technology.

Due to medicine, the physical malformations of some of their inhabitants have been solved.

But what bothered them was that he had to deliver resources of the same value and those resources were limited.

Now, because of that offer, that could be reduced.

And for any other business in the future, they will have a 40% reduction.

Thinking of that, they no longer felt annoyed at Medusa's escape.

Although her son could be a threat, they were not sure if he could awaken a powerful ability. Besides, they could make Black Bolt take another wife and thus control him better this time.

Alex could see the change in attitude of the Genetic Council and internally scoffed.

He was sure these old geezers thought they had made a lot of profit, but Alex didn't think so.

With the unlimited resources mined from the Negative Zone, he had no lack of money and giving away those benefits does not affect the economy of Genosha.

Also, that way Medusa and Ahura will stay in Genosha.

Alex could say it was selfish but it was necessary.

Since Ahura came into contact with his children and Franklin Richards, his abilities have been amplified to terrifying levels and he will be a force to be reckoned with in the future.

If he turns him over to Attilan and this child is manipulated by the Genetic Council, Alex would have a pesky enemy.

And he didn't want that, because of his relationship with Crystalia.

But if Medusa decides to come back, he won't stop her.

But seeing how the Genetic Council collaborated to keep her away, Alex believed that it was impossible for her to decide to return.

And if she still does it, he will be very disappointed as she would prove to be a bad mother and he would do his best to keep Ahura with him.

"Since it is you, we will make an exception this time, but you must make sure that she is not a threat to us. We will speak with our king to complete her exile and then there will be no problem" the old leader said with a dignified look.

"Don't worry, she just wants to raise her son in peace, and she doesn't hold any grudge against you" Alex replied with a calm smile showing a lot of sincerity.

"That's good. Then let's continue to have good cooperation, take good care of yourselves" the old leader said, waving goodbye.

"Likewise" Alex replied, ending the video call.

Sighing, Alex looks at the only other person in the office besides Alexa, who had been holding back her anger.

It's Crystalia Amaquelin.

She had heard the entire conversation and was furious, but even more disappointed.

She never expected that their status would only be outdone by a few benefits.

At this time, she felt contempt for her position as a princess, as it really was worthless.

"So what will you do?" Alex asked when he saw her somber expression.

"What else? I'll tell my sister about this" Crystal answered expressionlessly.

"I really hope you don't, after all it would only make her sadder" Alex calmly advised her, after all he knew that with the exile, they wouldn't come looking for her and Medusa wouldn't think of returning anymore.

"No! She must know, and if that man still loves her, then he'll still come for her" Crystal said coldly when she mentioned Black Bolt.

Seeing Crystalia's mood, Alex no longer objected.

"I have to thank you Alex, it's really my luck to have met you" Crystalia said with a smile, as she looked at Alex trying not to think about that subject.

"Don't worry too much, you're my woman, Medusa and Ahura are also my family, so it's normal for me to do this" Alex replied casually.

Crystal nodded with a smile on her face and left Alex's office.

Seeing that, Alex continued his work, of course, accompanied by Alexa, who for some strange reason had not left his side since her creation.

That made Riri jealous, since even she, as her creator, didn't have that honor.

Looking at the calm and submissive Alexa, Alex had a wry smile on his face.

He decided to ignore it and continue his work.

What Alex did not know is that this girl would be the one who will accompany him eternally in his different adventures through different multiverses.

But that is a story for another time.

After a long day at work, Alex decided to spend time with his children.

But when playing with them, he also had to accompany Franklin and Ahura, since Sasha and Alejandro are very attached to these two little brats.

The two twins were already able to walk and were currently playing with two balls.

It would be really nice if they used their feet, but the two brats were using their psychic powers to make them float in the air.

What left Alex speechless is that those two children were chasing the balls with great curiosity, as if that phenomenon was not their fault.

Sighing, Alex looked at the two little ones in his arms who were also staring at the two floating balls.

It seemed that if Franklin and Ahura weren't a few months old, they would also be chasing those two balls.

Trying to get their attention, he thought about making faces at them.

Just as he thought that, the two babies looked at him, Alex smiled as he could now make faces and make them laugh.

But before he could do it, the two little ones did something that left Alex speechless.

"Hehehe" the two boys started laughing.

"…"

Alex's face darkened, those two brats were laughing at his beautiful face, as if it were funny.

Annoyed, Alex settled the two brats in the crib and began to gently prod their little hands, but instead of being uncomfortable, the two brats found this interesting and collaborated very well.

The twins were also attracted.

Helpless, Alex just played along.

Thus, while Alex and four children were having fun, Medusa and Susan, who had arrived, looked at them with a friendly smile on their faces.

They thought that Alex was really a good father.
