Kathleen is flipping new magazines while her people are doing their jobs on serving the customers. She took her tablet and shows the business tabloids. Paparazzi just took photos of Andromeda and Zachary and post it with captions on their reunion party.

She scoffed. How can her cousin be this popular? She's like Sabrina. Her cousin from her Uncle Grandfather Ezekiel. They both married a dreamy man. She hated her life at this moment. But mostly, she wanted to have Zachary, but he is so in love with her that he won't even take a glance at another woman better than Andromeda.

She received a message from their family manager about their Family dinner in the Country Club. She smirked and called one of her best workers and told her to make her beautiful for tonight's party dinner.

After her manicure, she went out to the boutique to buy something beautiful to wear. She was choosing her dress for the perfect event when she saw someone that she doesn't want to ever see. The woman named Moira clinging into a tall man's arm. The man is wearing a suit and insisting on her to buy something.

She envied the woman and she hated her. How can she look so good without any makeup and wear simple clothes but would still stand out? And the man with her looked so powerful and dangerous. She wanted to ignore them but the feeling of embarrassment at her father's birthday party is still fresh for her. She hated her so much because even her father was fond of her.

She finally inhaled and exhaled to release the tension. She needed to calm down.

"I don't want to attend any of it.

" The woman muttered to the man.

Alanis patted her head and kissed her forehead.

"Just buy some dresses. Do you want me to choose?

" Alanis asked.

"Let's go back. You will be leaving in three hours. You sure don't want to spend three hours here and dressing me up?

"

Alanis smiled and pointed the most beautiful dress he saw and then told the sales lady that he's going to take it. It will be perfect for her. He paid for it and then he glanced at the mirror where it reflects the woman watching them. He smirked and then, he kissed Moira on the temple.

They leave the boutique and Alanis opened the door of his vintage Roll Royce. He reached her hand and kisses it. Then Moira glanced at her new wrist watched.

"Seriously?

" She asked.

"Yeah. It's simple but elegant.

" He reached her face.

"Stay on my villa. You aren't safe in your penthouse.

"

"I am fine. I can take care of myself and you need to leave. Or else your company will go down all the into the deep ocean.

"

"Why won't you just go with me? There, I can take care of you although I am quite busy. I can make sure that you eat your mean at the right time.

"

"I have a life here. My responsibility is important.

"

"That your family can't even acknowledge you?

"

"I don't need their acknowledgment. It's enough for me that Andromeda, Andel, and grandpa are there for me.

" She told. Alanis exhaled and kissed her lips.

"Why are you so kissable?

" He sucked her lips and they make out in the car. Alanis drove a little fast back to her penthouse to make love to her before he left in three hours.

Andromeda looked at the dresses that she bought for her mother. It's her style. Simple but elegant. Her mother is excited and nervous at the same time as she fixed her hair and cover her half-distorted face.

"It will be fine.

" Zach cheered her up. He wrapped his arms around Andy from behind and kissed her naked shoulder.

"I'll just make a few calls to make sure that everything is settled.

"

"Sure.

" He kissed her cheek and left.

"So, tell me how did the two of you reunite as childhood friends?

" Fiona asked. Andy sighed it was a bitter-sweet story. Andy reached her stomach and told her mother everything for ten minutes including how she lost her baby. Fiona is tearing and she hugged her.

"I know it's hard to lose a baby. But you have to forgive yourself and go on with life.

" She caressed her hair.

"You have a loving husband and I am sure that you will be a perfect mother in the future.

"

That's it. Andromeda lied to Zach and how can she just stop getting shots and get pregnant? She can't get pregnant. She had a mission and she's afraid to lose another baby.

"I think we should go. James would be thrilled to see you.

"

Andromeda went to the bathroom, closed the door and hold in the sink. Anxiety almost took over her mind and body. She held her chest, thinking of Zachary and her lies. Then she thought, Zachary said that he will still love her even though she lied big to him.

She washed her face and masked her emotions. Then Zach opened the door and smiled at her. His smile was the most beautiful thing in this world. Andy smiled back though her heart is in pain.

"Let's go?

" Zach asked.

"Sure.

" She followed him while Zach had her purse as they went downstairs. She fixed her expression and followed Zach to their car. They are going to drop her mother to the hospital first and then they will proceed to the country club after a little family reunion.

Fiona's hands are cold, and Andy held it as they travel to the secret hospital where she will have her surgery. They use the VIP exit to the suite that they reserved and secured. James on the sofa didn't know what he's doing there and when they enter, Aaron who has been waiting for long stood in a very snappy way.

He immediately reached his wife and kissed her lips.

"What's going on?

" James asked and looked at Andy.

"It's a mom,

" Andy told. James looked at the woman who had a scarf on her face. Aaron let Fiona hold her baby boy.

She reached James's face and started weeping.

"My Prince.

" She said.

"You are so tall.

"

"Of course, it's because of genes.

" James winked and kissed her mom on the forehead. He pushed her a little so he could see her.

"What happened?

" James slowly peeked on her half face covered with the scarf and his heart sank. He was speechless for a while and he hugged her mother.

"Don't worry, my mom. I'll handle everything. Just cook me foods, okay?

"

"Of course, I haven't cooked for my children for long.

" Fiona hugged her son and sniffled.

"You also smell good. How many women are you pleasing?

"

James chuckled and squeeze her in a bear hug.

"Mom stop flattering me. I miss you so much.

" He kissed her top head again. He carefully touched her scars and he didn't show fierceness. He will be calm, and he will make sure that the woman to take his mother's throne will pay a thousand folds.

Soon, her doctor came and checked her burns. She will have her face again. The doctor announced. It will take a few months, from the surgery to the healing process.

They stayed for 3 hours in the comfortable room that Zach settled for Fiona. There is a guest area, kitchen, bathroom with jacuzzi. Zach is just efficient. James doesn't want to go to the dinner party, but Aaron told him that they must leave since Edmond have a big announcement. Also, it seemed that even Elder Mondragon have an announcement.

They drove their cars to the country clubhouse and they meet each member of the family. Aaron's siblings and their children

/child together with their wives

/husbands.

"Andy!

" The S-Twins called and pouted at her, asking for help.
