He even felt that being against Rhiannon was way more difficult than dealing with the enemies.
“Just say it,” Gustavo said as he thought that Rhiannon had calmed down and stopped crying and he inwardly promised himself that he would do anything she asked him to do.
“Can you please take care of yourself when you go? However, you cannot go with Yadira. I have never enjoyed spending some quality time with my sister. The person I thought was a sister betrayed and even tried killing me. I want to experience what it is like having a big sister. Is that too much to ask for? In those three months, I can spend time with Yadira teaching her everything I know while she teaches me what she knows, We can also go shopping and everything. If you go with her, then who will I spend time with? Ernest is so boring as he doesn’t know girls' stuff. After all, he has grown up with boys,” Rhiannon said not even forgetting to include Ernest who was enjoying the show in the mess.
Ernest glared at her but she pretended not to see it as she thought that she was doing everyone present by her acting since they all didn’t want Yadira to follow Gustavo.
“Okay,” Gustavo agreed without hesitation as he didn’t see anything wrong with her request when all their baby child wanted was to spend quality time with her sister and not someone else’s sister. Yadira who had been quiet watching and listening to everything didn’t feel offended by Gustavo making the decision for her as she remembered Gustavo’s words and also how he used to behave when they were in the organization.
She remembered that Gustavo always gave him everything she wanted, even what he didn’t want to do, he would still do it blindly so as not to anger his little sister and flesh and blood. In the same way, she wondered why couldn't she make Rhiannon happy while she was her little sister. As her big sister, isn’t she supposed to make sure that Rhiannon is happy and give in to every demand? With that thought, she remained silent thinking that it wasn’t a bad thing to give in to her requests as they didn’t sound unreasonable.
Unlike her whose requests had always been unreasonable.
Also, she was aware that Gustavo now had a long of responsibility as he was the eldest of all and had three young siblings who he opted to treat equally and show love to. She wasn’t the only one who Gustavo could accommodate.
She promised herself that she would protect Rhiannon the same way Gustavo always did when they were in the organization, love her, and make sure that she had everything as that was the work of an older sibling.
When she remembered her little outburst that she wanted to go with Gustavo, she felt embarrassed as she wondered what her sister and other big brothers thought of her. She didn’t care about the elders as they weren’t related to her by blood and she felt like they were just some passerby although she knew that they weren’t. They were her mother’s apprentices thus they were like their family.
“Okay. Brother, when you go, please take care of yourself and know that we will be waiting for you to come back,” Yadira said with a smile on her face shocking everyone as they didn’t expect her to understand and give in to Rhiannon’s demands. Even Gustavo himself was stunned as he was used to her being unreasonable.
He gave her questioning eyes but she shrugged and he vowed to visit her so that he could see what was on her mind.
“Is there any other news that should be known?” Rhiannon asked as she looked at Mary since she had said that she had some other business news to inform her.
“Yes.,” Mary said as she nodded her head before taking a deep breath since he knew that what she was going to say next would affect the atmosphere present.
“Cecily Sanders, the daughter of the person who was impersonating your mother, and your grandparents picked her bringing her to the family is back," he said as he detailed afraid that they didn’t remember that there was such a woman.
“Back? What do you mean when you say she is back? Where was she and what does she want?” Ernest asked as he felt a wave of headache hitting him as the woman had left a great impression on him.
“The Rodrigues and the Sanders had an agreement that their children should get married when they grow up. That woman is after Octavius and she has been following him around and also claiming that she is his wife. She had also gone to the Snaders company claiming that as the only Sande, the company should belong to her. Thankfully, we had already sent someone to keep an eye on the company. Now, she requests to meet with the Dragons Organisation leader claiming that she has a proposal for her and wants them to work together.”
