Camila never thought that her boss's boss' daughter would drive her to Rhys's residence. She didn't stay there for long yesterday. But it seemed like Rhys's mother was expecting her.

"I'm sorry that you got into this problem." Athena said.

​​

"I still don't understand."

"It's better that you know less."

It takes an hour to get to the house because of the traffic. But she's welcome in the house and there's Rhys's mother who greets her and his dad.

"Camila, welcome to our house." Freya said. "Feel at home." She said.

"Thank you." Camila mumbled. "But Mrs. Smith, I still don't understand why I'm here."

"Well, you almost got killed because of what Rhys sent to you."

She stopped and thought about that code.

"Oh, crap." She exclaimed.

"Yes," Freya nodded. She reached her chest.

"It's a good thing that Zendy and others didn't kill that delivery guy in front of me." She mumbled. Steven laughed.

"I like your expression. Casey, you can show her to her room." Steven said. "Don't worry, sweetheart. You are part of the family. Besides, Rhys likes you so much and talked about you a lot too. Casey and Chelsea set up a guest room for you. Don't be shy."

"Thank you, Mr. Smith."

"It's nothing, sweetheart." Steven put his arms around Freya. 

The butler took her bag. She followed Casey upstairs to the guest room. Her eyes widened when Casey opened it. It's like a princess-like bedroom. Purple and pink and white wallpaper and sheets and even the sofas. The bed is queen size, four posters with a pink mosquito net around it. There's also a snake plant on the side table and just wow.

"Do you like it?" Casey asked.

"Yeah. I love it."

"Chelsea and I arranged things in here."

"So, you really planned all of these?"

"Yes," Casey smiled. "Since Chelsea is busy with the renovations, I am left alone."

"I will take care of that." She told the butler and she took the bag. "Thank you, very much."

"You are welcome, Lady Camila." The butler bowed and she watched as the butler left.

"Wow, is everyone like that?"

"Yes. It's their etiquette."

Camila entered the walk-in closet and there were few clothes.

"You can use that. Those are clothes that Chelsea never wears perfect for your size. It's new though."

"Wow, thank you."

"Change your clothes, we will have our dinner in ten minutes."

Casey sat on the sofa and became busy with her tablet. She went to the bathroom with her clothes. She washed her face and then her hands. She changed her clothes and went outside.

"I don't want to know what Rhys sent me. But is he okay?" Camila asked. Casey stood.

"Yes, he's fine. You don't have to worry."

The dinner with Rhys's family is something that she never had. Although there's only Casey. But Rhys's parents are very loving. They pampered Casey even at the dining table. Although Casey is a pampered daughter of their family, she talks and speaks like an adult.

After dinner, they will go to the great room to drink wine and watch a movie together. Rhys's intimidating mother approached her.

"I don't know your real relationship with Rhys but I know that he stays in your house a lot."

She bit her lip and finished her wine.

"We do it." Camila said. "I mean, we are adults and you might've already found it out or investigated…" she mumbled. Freya chuckled.

"We know that." Freya lifted her wine and she signed the butler to give her another. "My twins are very responsible men. And if they aren't, then I have to cut them off."

"What do you mean by cut them off?"

"Their cards. They will be broke. I discipline my children, especially those two. I didn't mean to prey. I just want to know that they are safe. And they are aware of it."

She nodded.

"It's not much like that. Rhys and I are best friends."

"Hmm," Freya nodded and sipped on her wine. "If you are tired you can go up to your room." Freya said. "You can also stay here always. You are welcome."

"Thank you."

She went to her room and took a hot bubble bath that the maids set up. She stayed there and thought about how Rhys's family welcomed her. Yet, she didn't know on what's going on. She stood from the bath and went to the walk-in closet to take a vibrator.

She watched the videos that Rhys sent to her while they were doing it. She never thought that she's that loud but hearing his noise turned her on.

After her bath, she went to bed and used another toy until she had it. Then, she checked the social media while lying on the bed with that silk dress. There's a video from Chicago and a girl kissing a man while everyone is cheering. The girl has that veil's bride.

Then, she pulled out and rubbed herself to the man. She's shocked at the man. Rhys?

"We are married." The girl said to the video and lifted the ring.

Suddenly, everything shattered. She looked at the dancing dildo that Rhys is jealous about. She took it and put it back on her bag. She pulled the pillow and hugged it. Rhys got married in Chicago. And why is she staying at his parent's house? Is it because she's not safe anywhere? Is she going to stay as Rhys's best friend that he f-ck? And how about that girl? Rhys would never hurt the girl if he married her. Now, this is depressing.

Jaxon pulled Rhys to the corner as they hid from those men that were searching for them. Rhys just steal their code. He put the code to his small chip and deleted it from their system. He just hacked into the system and now, he's on the run with Jaxon. They don't have a back-up from any Empire since they are still finding out the traitors that the Eagle Empire planted.

"I don't want to starve ever again." Rhys mumbled. "It's a good thing that we bought chocolate."

"We'll have to leave Chicago, ASAP." Jaxon said.

Rhys nodded. They went to the tunnel. They heard something vibrating. Rhys followed and it took the phone with Phoenix marking on it. He answered it.

"Phoenix Triple Zero." Rhys said.

"Phoenix Triple Zero, this is Empire Centaur Double One. There's a bag on the ceiling. Passport and money are there. Also, your escape to Chicago. They closed everything and we have your identities in that bag."

"Thank you." Rhys mumbled. He knew that it's Andel.

"Triple Zero, is Four-Nine with you?" There's Aria's voice.

"Yes," Rhys smirked as Jaxon removed the bag that is taped on the top. "You want to tell something to him?"

"Yes," Aria sounds very serious. "The laser blade that cut his suit contains poison. We couldn't detect the poison but I think he will feel nausea in a few hours. We ready things to help him. We can't use the detox for that reason."

"So, the poison is still in his body?"

"Yes," Aria nodded. "His heartbeat is normal, but the poison is preparing a war to Four-Nine's body."

"Oh, shit." Rhys mumbled. "We need to go."

"This is an untraceable cell phone." Aria said. "Take it with you. We'll contact you again."

"Copy that."

They change their clothes and then put the new suit on. They walked past the homeless and threw their clothes on the trashcan. Rhys checked his new jacket where he kept his little card that contains everything.

They are also wearing someone's face from Luke and Logan's invention that would match their body and they walked around and even bought food. Both of them are starving. So, they eat on the way to the airport with their backpacks.

"I missed her." Rhys sighed dramatically. "Do you think that she will see that video?"

"Yeah," Jaxon nodded.

"By the way, I was talking to Aria a while ago." Rhys's grinned and he noticed familiar men walking toward them. They act normal. "I think she had a crush on you."

"Who?" he asked as he focused on those men who walked past them and kept looking around.

"Aria," Rhys whispered.

Jaxon is busy looking around.

"Aria doesn't like me. She's just doing her job and being nice." He said calmly and called for the taxi. They hopped in.

"Well, I think you guys will look together."

"How old is she?" Jaxon asked, Rhys's thought for a while. "She's just a girl." He said as he told the taxi driver at the airport.

"She's not a girl. She's a grown-up woman!"

"She's a girl." Jaxon insisted. They took out a wrapped food and drink and gave it to the driver.

"Thank you." The driver said. They eat in the car and make sure that they didn't mess around.

"I'm like going thirty…" Jaxon said.

"Pfft!" Rhys shook his head. "She is twenty-two."

"She's a kid." Jaxon said.

"Whatever." Rhys's waved off. "But you are old. You need to get married."

"I am not old." Jaxon mumbled and munched the shawarma that they bought.

"You are." Rhys said. And thinking about Christian and Demi. Christian is thirty and why isn't he marrying Demi?

He always reasoned that Demi had to agree to make babies first before the wedding, then, they would be the first couple that would give great-grandchildren to their grandparents.
