Danger Zone Chapter 116
Advertisement
Drax drags Aiden outside of the wedding hall and brings him to one of the tents where Crystal is waiting with Arch on her arms.
Aiden yelps but stop when he notices Arch is sleeping while one of his hands is clenched in a fist.
Crystal puts her forefinger near her lips and looks directly at Drax who almost shrieks upon seeing the woman while cradling her son on her arms.
"Crystal? Wait, is that you?"
Crystal only smiles and shushes them as Arch begins to move from her arms. She hums a lullaby while Drax is standing awkwardly beside Aiden.
He doesn't know what to do. Drax had never thought of meeting Crystal after she runs away from the mansion after falling in love with a merchant.
Aiden clears his throat and slowly looks at Drax before lifting her eyebrows, asking him what does he needs to do and why did he drags him all the way from the wedding hall and to one of these tents.
Drax swallows the big lump in his throat before pushing Aiden into a small room and brings him the tailored suit that Cassie had told him to what Aiden will wear.
Aiden takes the tailored suit and looks at it before leaning back against the wall and smiles.
"I think they want me to get every single paparazzi available at this wedding and be the star of this night. Do I look like the one getting married?!"
Crystal closes her son's ears to prevent him from waking up when her husband enters the tent with a half smirking face and sparkling eyes.
"What happened? Why are so happy?"
Miko only kisses her lips and asks for Aiden's whereabouts. Crystal and Drax both point the small room that has only one white curtain to separate Aiden from the other people.

"Couz', are you done?"
Aiden only hums in response, swiftly opening the curtains to reveal his suit, Miko's smile grows larger and bolder.
He looks proud and excitement is overwhelming.
Aiden comes out with a white tailored tuxedo. His white coat has the family's heirloom pinned at the neck of the sleeves.
The buttons of his vest are gold and he is wearing and slim-fit under shirt. He is still wearing the wrist watch that Daime gave him for his birthday when they are still in the Philippines.
To finish the whole look off, Miko gives his a golden necktie and black leather shoes. Crystal smiles when she sees how handsome Aiden looks. His hair is styled to the back and he looks younger than his actual age is.
"Are you ready to meet the world, Keoni?"
Aiden shows a mysterious smile, somewhat similar to an evil smile but sweet. A perfect smile for those people who has been pushed him to the deep ends of the world.
A perfect smile that is dedicated only for Grandmama. Drax suddenly feels shivers up to his spine when he sees how devilish Aiden looks like.
Crystal goes over to him and whispers what she wants to tell him.
"Don't be scared. This is the truthfulness that we are all living. This is what Arylle had been through before."
Drax's attention suddenly shifts to Crystal's direction and almost stumbles away from her. He looks at her who is having a smile on her face as if she is happy as to what is happening.
"This the perfect revenge for everything. For ruining my life and ruining my brother's life."
Aiden looks at Crystal when he hears what she said. He doesn't know what happened to Daime after she got married to Miko but if he will believe her then, it is something bad or traumatic.

Crystal bows at Aiden to give her thanks in return. Aiden nods back and waits for the perfect timing before he goes out of the tent and walks down the aisle of surprises.
The cunning faces of everyone that enslaved him this past few months living inside the hell hole of the Santoro mansion, will now be forgotten.
To be honest, Aiden doesn't care at all. But his father hates the fact that they used Aiden for something like cleaning the horse stable on his own.
It is his father's personal pain but Aiden did feel something that Grandmama is not talking about him.
It's either she already knows who is the hidden gem of the Matautia family or she is planning to push one of the woman towards their family and connects the two family for more money.
Money.
That is always the issue when it comes to rich families like these. Aiden, himself, hates dealing with this kind of problems. He doesn't want to get involved but he likes to see the result after this.
Hence, he calls his father last night before he falls down asleep due to exhaustion. He accepts his plan under one condition. Master Evon says yes to him and now he is just waiting for him to finish his fake talks with the politicians.
Moments later, Master Evon enters the tent with a huge smile on his face. It is more likely because he finally confirms the reason why the Santoro family ransacks their mansion in order to find Aiden.
"Sit down. I need to be calm first before knowing what I am about to say."
Aiden nods at Master Evon and sits down carefully, trying not to ruin his beautiful tuxedo even before the big reveal. He folds his legs on top of the other while waiting for his father to speak up.
Cassie is right behind him and sees Master Evon showing signals that spells out "Alone." She nods in understanding and asks Crystal, Drax and Miko to go out of the tent while they are talking.
Once they are out, Master Evon finally told Aiden what is the reason behind the obsession of Grandmama to him and his identity.
"Eleanor Santoro wants to wed you to one of her grandsons. She doesn't really care if you are a man or a woman. She already promises that to the grandson so there is no turning back at all."
Aiden gawks at the revelation to him and stands up from his chair.
"Calm down. I am still not done."
Aiden grumpily sits down on his chair for the last time before he almost fainted when Master Evon told him, who the grandson is.
"Pinch me and tell me that I am just dreaming and this is not happening, Father! Tell me!"
