"My sister is pretty rich!" Leo commented as he finished his survey of the camping van and finally settled down on the empty seat beside Mark.

It was currently twelve minutes past nine o'clock in the early Saturday morning and they all were heading to the campsite which was located at the west end of the city near the mountains.

"She's the CEO of the AIL-Labels. She should be rich." Daniel responded as he smiled proudly at his little sister.

"It's true. I'm earning pretty well. Also, Nick and Danny still give me pocket money every month. So, I'm leaving a lavish life without any monetary problems." Emily told her youngest brother who suddenly appeared to be curious.

"Pocket money? How much?" Leo asked excitedly.

"Seven and five," Emily replied as she pointed first at Domenic and then at Daniel.

Leo was silent for a while as he tried to read his sister's expression and then looked at Dom and Danny to see if he could see something in their expressions.

It was not surprising for him that Domenic was giving their little sister the so-called pocket money. As far as he knew all his brothers had been receiving their shares of pocket money even though they all were too old for that.

But finding out that even Daniel had started providing pocket money was surprising because as far as he could tell, Emily was the only one receiving this privilege.

Another few moments of complete silence passed before he finally dared to speak, "Million?"

It sounded like a question but he already knew the answer. There was no question that those two filthy rich brothers of his would be giving anything less than a few million to her, and as he watched Emily nodding her head in response, a deep sigh escaped his lips.

He knew it! His brothers were trying to stock up her bank accounts but that was not a bad thing, at least, now he could rely on his little sister too since she was wealthier than him.

"But I'm still waiting..." Emily suddenly spoke in a little disappointed voice which made almost all of her brothers turn their attention towards her except for Mark who was pretending to be asleep.

"Waiting for what?" Leo asked as he looked at her with questioning eyes.

A beautiful smile bloomed on her lips as she replied in a low tone, "Waiting for the rest of you to start giving me pocket money too. After all, I'm your only little sister. You all need to provide for me."

Her eyes sparkled with mischief and happiness as she looked at her brothers who were either shaking their heads or sighing after hearing her words.

Leo stared at his sister with a surprised look on his face. According to him, he and Crist were supposed to be the most shameless ones in the family but looking at his sister, he finally realized that she was just as shameless and crafty as the two of them.

Did she learn these traits from him and Crist? That could not be possible, right?

"My dear sister, I'm poor. Don't raise your hopes with me. On the other hand, you better keep your credit cards safe from me cause my hands are suddenly itching to use them." He responded with an evil smile on his face while he showed her his hands.

They kept joking and teasing each other and the atmosphere inside the van became happy and cozy just like that.

Crist was in the middle of taking over the second tower in the game that he was playing on his phone when a message alert distracted him.

One look at the ID of the person who had sent the message and his eyes immediately moved to look in the direction where Emily was snuggled into Leo as they both giggled softly.

The good thing was that he was sitting all alone in the back of the van and there was no one around him. He tapped the message box and read the message that his sister had sent.

[How much you have put in the bet?]

His eyes once again landed on the duo of his two youngest siblings. He did not doubt that it was Leo who told her about the bet.

[Whoever will lose have to take on the household duties for half a year.]

Crist hurriedly typed back the reply with a crying emoji at the end of the message. If it had been only about the money, he would not have thought too much about breaking or not breaking the bet. But the mere thought of spending hours every week to help with the household works for not one, two, or three but full six months made him regret his impulse which made him place the bet in the first place.

He waited patiently for the next message from his sister as he looked over in her direction once again. The good thing was that neither she nor Leo turned their attention towards him for even a second, otherwise, there were chances that Mark would have ended up noticing them since they were sitting directly in front of him.

Another message alert on his phone made him open the message -

[I'll help you to win this bet]

Crist raised his eyebrows as he read the message and it took quite a bit of his self-control to not again look in her direction.

[How?]

He sent and waited for her reply.

[I'll make sure that Mark will be the one to speak to me first. Just make sure to help me with the plan. We are siblings, we should be helping each other.]

He could not stop the smile that made its way to his lips as he slightly shook his face. His sister had become way smarter than she used to be a few years ago.

He had a feeling that if she joined his and Leo's chaotic group then the three of them would keep the chaos sailing smoothly through the Alessandro mansion all the time.

With that beautiful and alluring thought in his mind, he typed the reply and sent it.

[Okay. I'll follow your lead.]
