After the meeting with Dmitri, Christian checked Demi for a while and give her lots of kisses and shot a glare to those boys who eyed her since she's wearing shorts and a t-shirt that curves her body.

"You should go before our professor arrived,

" Demi told him. Christian pressed his lips.

"Why are you wearing so little?

" He hissed at her.

"This is our activity uniform. Don't tell me that you didn't enjoy girls wearing this when you are Senior?

" She smirked at him. He frowned at her.

"I don't focus on such things.

" He patted her head.

"I'll pick you up this Friday and make love to you.

" He whispered. She scoffed and pushed his chest.

"Roger that.

" She winked at him.

Christian kissed her lips and then he left.

"It's not the time for the two of you to make out in class,

" Zendaya said and crossed her arms. Demi raised her watch in front of Zendaya and take a photo of her outfit. Zendaya frowned at her.

"What?

"

Demi grinned and turned back as she sent it to Timothy.

"Okay,

" Zendaya turned back and exhaled. She started stretching and their professor arrived.

So, they are in a basic ninja workout and the person who has the highest grades can work to the Phoenix Empire under Fin. Well, Zendaya is the fastest among all of them. She's not going to work for any empire. She's the heiresses and somehow, their classmates didn't know about that.

Their parents don't want them to have a special treatment and even if they would eat to their family's restaurant they should pay. Even if they would go to their shop. They should pay every item that they wanted, and they didn't get a real special treatment.

Demi had to admit that Zendaya is the fastest among all of them. She had her specialty and for Athena? Athena has her specialty. She likes twisting things around.

So, it's Aria and Aria got ninety points. She trained a lot although she focused more on hacking and other technological stuff.

****

Bea got a hundred points just like Athena as they beat up the guys. Athena checked Bea's heartbeat. She's still in an adrenaline rush and maybe the americano shots. This is bad. She had two cups of americano, and she might not be able to fall asleep.

"I think you shouldn't drink any coffee from now on.

"

"Why?

" Bea asked.

"It's bad for your health.

"

Bea sighed and nodded. She should just agree with Athena from now own. Because Kale would also say the same.

****

Noah checked up the wirings in the café as Timothy showed him the plan and he's doing all of the paperwork. Jaxon and Mason are also helping them out for the decoration and installation of cameras and the internet system.

Christian arrived late and he checked their server that is located on the second-floor office. Timothy followed him. He looked around and sighed.

"Christian,

" Timothy called. Christian turned around.

"Yeah?

"

"How much is that latest camera that Pattinson Company created?

" He asked.

"It cost a hundred thousand for a single camera,

" Christian said.

"You don't have to worry about that. Zendaya is our investor and she invests the security system and she bought it from her father's company.

"

"What?

" Timothy creased his brows.

"Yeah. She invested in the Empire Café, my first opening. The security cameras, server, the accounting system is all her investment.

" Christian explained shortly.

"Accounting system?

" Timothy asked. They had their accounting system back when he was the CEO of their company.

And their accounting system might be different.

"Yup. The accounting system was built up by Laurence and he sold it to Zendaya.

"

Timothy felt dizzy so he sat down.

"Since when?

"

"That was three years ago.

"

"They were too young,

" Tim said.

"Yeah, they are investing in their own money through their 100K allowance per month. And, from their grandfather's inheritance.

"

"So, at that age—they are already investing, planning businesses?

" Timothy asked.

"They are allowed to the restaurant of Dmitri, but they have to pay. So, they are also allowed to this restaurant, but they have to pay.

" Christian explained shortly.

"It's a business plan that we should always do, and those heiresses and heirs are rich, so they have to pay for each meal that they order.

"

Timothy is silent for a while. So, those kids are richer than he was, back when he was a CEO. So, overall, their Empire is too little for them. If he calculates the overall net worth that they own, their family doesn't have much money. But, from what he knows, they donate every month to orphanages and poor hospitals around the world.

"Zendaya's dad, give 50 percent of his salary to Andromeda and Andy will send it out to the orphanages. So, each orphanage and hospital have an accountant to make sure that no one would steal it. Not even the director of each orphanage.

"

"Wow,

" Tim said.

"I don't remember our family doing the same without cameras around.

"

"Well, now you understand that they are far too different from our family?

" Christian finished closing the server to the wall.

"Yeah.

" Timothy nodded.

"Now, I think that I don't deserve Zendaya.

"

"Be a better person for Zendaya and work hard.

" He said and stood.

"I will.

"

****

Ellen checked the sales of their restaurants that kept expanding. So, since it's under Pattinson's corporation, it's easy for her to navigate it and with the help of her brothers.

"Mommy!

" Elizabeth called.

"Mommy, I can't find my ballerina costume!

" The little girl entered her office and she looks over her from her laptop monitor.

"Why do you need it?

"

"Zavannah and I plan to wear it when we go shopping!

" She crossed her arms and pouted.

Ellen creased her brows. Andel kept spoiling her with everything since their children are boarding in the Academy.

"We have a shopping appointment at three.

" She said and looked frustrated.

Ellen sighed and saved her work and she turned off her computer. She stood from her swivel chair and approached her.

"Since when did you have a shopping appointment?

" She asked as she took her hand and they went to her room.

"We always have that on Friday. Dad always takes me and Zavannah's daddy too.

"

"Why didn't I know about this?

" Ellen asked her again.

"Well, ask, daddy.

"

Ellen needed to remember that she's just six years old and she talked like fifteen years old.

"Andel!

" She called out as she went to her walk-in closet that is half-filled. She looked around to search for that pink tutu.

"I found it!

" Andel appeared in the door lifting the pink tutu that Elizabeth loves to wear.

"Wow, I didn't know that you have a shopping appointment.

" Ellen crossed her arms in front of him. Andel smiled at her nervously.

"Lizzi, you should check out your dad if he's meeting any woman,

" Ellen told her daughter.

"Okay.

" She ran to her father and took her tutu and gave it to her mom.

"Dress me up, please.

"

"Yes, I will make you beautiful,

" Ellen said and Lizzi ran to her dresser. Ellen frowned at Andel and he only smiled.

Ellen braided Elizabeth's hair into a crown and she put pins to make it pretty and then she put a lip moisturizer and her wristwatch that has a tracker and connected to her phone. She also put her earrings that only costs around five thousand. Then she also packed up an adorable pink leather backpack with water, cellphone, wet tissue, and little cash just in case she got lost.

"Make sure that she didn't get lost or else,

" Ellen glared at Andel.

"Yes, Ma'am.

"

Ellen faced Elizabeth and smack her little lips.

"Always stick with Daddy, okay?

"

"Yes, mommy.

" Lizzi hugged her and Ellen stood from her seat and let Elizabeth run to her father.

Ellen crossed her arms and shook her head as the father and daughter went downstairs. She followed them and see them until Andel took her to the backseat to the baby's car.

"Should I come?

" Ellen asked and went to the car to check on her baby.

"No. Baby girl, you stay.

" Andel reached her cheeks and kissed her lips.

"It's a father and daughter bonding. Got it?

"

Ellen sighed. Andel pulled her waist closer.

"We have Alanis and bodyguards so don't worry. Got it?

"

"You are taking my baby.

" She told as she gestures to her daughter's direction.

"Baby, we will have fun so you could relax and do whatever you want. I'll take care of Lizzi. Don't worry.

"

"How can I not worry when there's a big threat in our family?

"

"Hush, I'll protect our family.

" He kissed her one last time.

"What do you want me to buy for you? I'm going to pick up the twins. And send someone to pick up Carter.

"

"Nothing, just bring our kids safely back to me.

"

"I will. Now, it will be hours' drive to the city, and we are late for our appointment.

" He winked.

Ellen had no choice but to let them go. So, after they left, Ellen went back to her office to call Moira.

"Moira, do the girls have a shopping appointment?

"

"Yes, they do. Alanis just set it up three weeks ago. It's a father-daughter date.

"

"And what are you doing right now?

"

"I am relaxing. Pleasing myself why kids are done and Alanis.

"

"Hmm. I don't even know what to do.

"

"Baking?

"

"I like baking with Lizzi around.

"

"Masturbate?

"

"Damn it, I like Andel to do it.

"
