The family of four had just finished their lunch when knocking was heard from the office door.
Secretary Ryan then enters politely. After seeing Veronica, he bowed towards her, so low that the woman could only raise her left brow.
After the bow, he turned towards Rawlf.
"President, the old master was currently landing on the rooftop", Secretary Ryan said in a calm voice although deep inside, he was very tense.
Rawlf on the other hand just looked towards his Secretary rather too intensely, not hiding his distaste from the news Secretary Ryan just gave.
After a moment, Rawlf removed his line of sight from his Secretary who was already trembling within,
"I believe you've already settled it."
"Yes, President. There are already men on stand by to guard the old master's safety landing."
Rawlf then stood up, walked to his table to take his suit's jacket and wore it then fixed himself while looking towards Veronica and their cubs the entire time. After ensuring his bearing is fine, he walked back towards his family on the office lounge.
"My father just arrived. Hope you don't mind if I'll introduce you and our cubs to him later?" He looked at Veronica, trying to gauge what she really thought based on her expression.
A passing shock was seen in Veronica's face yet it didn't last long as she stared at Rawlf directly in his eyes trying to convey that she's fine with it.
She also nodded her head and accidentally saw Rawlf's tightly closed fist.
Veronica does not fully understand the complicated relationship between Rawlf and his father although she also realized that despite the complicated and distant relationship, Rawlf still managed to be civil towards his father.
He obviously doesn't like the news that his father just arrived in the building yet he is still about to go up on the rooftop to welcome the old master Sy.
Veronica took Rawl's fist in her hands and stroked it gently. "We'll wait here. Go fetch your father."
Rawlf's mood lightens up after his woman's gentle and loving gesture.
He started to relax and opened the close fist and maneuver to take Veronica's hands near his lips then kissed it.
Veronica, who realized that their children were with them, instantly removed her hands from Rawlf's grasp and stared at him with silent words, 'Our children's with us and watching!'
However, Rawlf just smirked, wink at her and walked out of the office. After Rawlf and Secretary Ryan were out, Veronica faced the twins. "Alright babies, your grandpa is here."
Both Baelfire and Baelfair glance towards their mother as if trying to confirm the truth. "Grandpa? Father's daddy mommy?" Baelfire asked.
"Yes Fire. Your daddy's dad." Veronica ruffled her son's hair then right away fixed it.
"Gwampa?! Yeyyyy! Fey's othah (other) gwampah is heeh (here)!" Baelfair suddenly stood up and fixed her dress. "Mameeh!, Beyfey wooks (looks) pwetty (pretty) now?"
Veronica chuckled and pinched her daughter's left cheek. "My lovely Fair, you are always pretty."
Baelfire giggled and moved to dance around her father's office from the joy of her mother's praise.
"Enough now, your grandpa will be here shortly",'Veronica chuckled then fix Baelfair's hair. Meanwhile at the Sy International building rooftop.
The private chopper that carries the old master Sy had it's safe, strategic landing. Then descend first, the old master Sy's former secretary now turned an 'all purpose' butler Pito and the old master Sy himself being assisted by two personal assistants, obviously.
Rawlf walked near his father and greeted the old man.
"How are you father? I wasn't informed that you'll be coming over today, that's why no preparations were made for your arrival."
The old master "tsk".
"I never expected any grand welcome as long as my son always welcomes me. You've got a lot of things to tell this old man, son." The old master Sy said in a serious voice although deep inside, he's already hype.
Rawlf understanding his father's meaning prevented a smirk. "They're in my office. You'll meet them soon."
"Oh!"
The old master suddenly exclaimed in utter pleasure. However, after realizing it's out of his public character, he returned to his serious expression,
"That's good. But before that, I have yet to discuss something with you, which happened to be my top most priority. It's important that you see, I even descended from my safe haven."
Rawlf's mouth twitched. On the other hand, Butler Pito made a coughing voice. The old master Sy turned to his loyal subordinate then said,
"You see, the air from my safe haven is so fresh that Pito now isn't used to the polluted air of City I."
Secretary Ryan on the other hand was trying his best not to laugh over the old master Sy's antics and even started to question himself about the healing powers of nature and fresh air.
Who would have thought that the stoic and fearsome old master Sy would one day act like a tsundere father and grandfather.
