Chapter 13: MEETING THEM PT. 1

We are in the car and currently driving on the way to Isaac's family house.

He's been glancing in my direction every second it's starting to piss me off.

"What is it?"

I heard him clear his throat before replying, "We can still go back," my brow furrowed with his response.

Why is he so against going there? Is he hiding something? Then it makes me wanna meet his family more! Maybe he's hiding something top secret in there!

"Shut up and just drive Mr. Trazona." That was the end of our conversation until we stopped at a big gate.

I was a bit confused when we entered a forest but I didn't know there'd be a house here or could I even call it a house?

Upon entering the manor, the big gate opened and the guard houses greeted us. There was a humongous fountain in the middle, I specifically liked the lantern-like lights on every corner.

Anyway, moving on, Isaac had to park his car along with the others and we had to walk our way to the main mansion.

Security is topnotch, even a mere assassin like me wouldn't be able to get in without being noticed.

Isaac said we wouldn't get to go through a security check since we're one of the Trazonas. SIGH. Thank God, I kind of brought myself a few self-protection ammo.

Moving on! While walking to the path leading to their house, I saw a garden of violet flowers and Pine trees on the sides.

It was rather a long walk but we finally managed to enter the main house. The owner of the house must like fountains since I saw two mini fountains when we entered the quadrangle.

Anyway, how should I describe this? This looks more like a Duke's house than an ordinary citizen's.

Once we entered the house, I saw a huge flower chandelier in the middle, am I in the right place?

I thought that was the living room but the maids led us to a different room.

This must be where they greet guests since the ambiance looks a lot more refreshing than the other one. The walls are covered with an aquarium, white furniture and big circle-like lights in the middle.

Enough of that, I saw a woman in her thirties walking straight to us with a big smile on her face.

My face was starting to wince but Isaac nudged me so I had no choice but to fake a smile.

"Oh, my darlings! You're here! I'm not expecting you till later! I'm still cooking, " She greeted us after a big hug.

"Blame Amethyst," Isaac said rather pissed.

"Oh, ignore him," Isaac's Mom pushed him and pulled me off somewhere.

I looked back and communicated with Isaac through my eyes. But he didn't even respond. Clueless jerk! Help me!

But it was too late, I was dragged inside the kitchen. I saw multiple chefs cooking from further back but my attention was suddenly snatched by this woman in front of me.

She was looking at me with such delight. "Are you my son's wife?" she asked hopefully. I could only nod and smile awkwardly.

"Is he treating you right? He could be a bit cold sometimes but he's a good kid," Isaac? A good kid? Doesn't his mom know the nature of his son's business?

"He lost his mom when he was just a kid, I married his father after five years and I've been trying to get along with him since then. It took a long time before he finally opened up so I hope you understand him," And I should care because?

If you only knew how that precious son of yours is trying to kill me then you won't be able to say that.

" Anyway, do you know how to cook? "

" Oh, yes. Do you need help with anything? " I said looking at the ingredients at the island table.

"And Isaac eats whatever you cook?" What's wrong with that? I nodded my head in confusion.

And then she just suddenly smiled and cried a little, I think?

"I'm so glad you're the person he married. I knew he wouldn't marry anyone unless it was the kid he met when he was a kid but then we were really surprised when Amethysts called and announced that his dear cousin was already married."

That's a good question, why did he try and marry Kamila? Is she the kid he wanted to marry way back when he was a kid?

"We were all overjoyed when we heard the news. His siblings even tried to catch an early flight just to meet you today," So I'm meeting with basically everyone huh? I wonder what they're like. Are they affiliated with the Mafia? or are they innocent like this one?

I faked a smile and helped set up the table. After we were done, Emily Isaac's mom told me to fetch my HUSBAND from his room upstairs.

I didn't have any problem locating which way was his room since they have mini maps plastered on every corner of the wall.

I knocked three times before entering. What greeted me was a luxurious room with a dark color scheme.

"Cool room, this yours?" I asked but Isaac just stared at me blankly.

Ugh, I forgot he doesn't know how to do even a little pep talk. So, I stood up and looked at him, "They're already calling us outside we should go,"

I was planning to leave him there if he didn't say anything but Isaac's hand suddenly grabbed my wrist and pulled it causing me to fall on top of him.

W-What the bloody hell?!

I saw a smirk form on his lips little by little. Oh, he's enjoying this alright.

"Let go,"

"Bold of you to assume I would just approve of your command *gatita*," Gatita?! I don't even know what it is but I bet it's something to be pissed!

Isaac held my waist tighter, pulling me closer to him.

"I've been knocking outside why aren't you— OMO!" My eyes landed at Amethysts who looked shocked and excited at the same time. "I'll tell them to wait a little! Hihihi!" and she ran off.

She's spilling it on the rest of them, right? Of course, she will.
