Aqua Castle,

Vanessa sat down in front of her gigantic monitors. She carefully placed her fingers over the screen keyboard and started typing fast like she's just playing the piano. She must finish the job that her son left. Starting with the reports. She forced Maverick's people to report to her right away, using Maverick's name. Her son already gave her permission. The job wasn't quick but they are still investigating with a few more of it. 

"Reinheart, how's the Welch Company?" 

"It's doing well, your highness." 

"Hmm, there's not a single line that goes down." Vanessa noticed that Welch was standing still without their ratings going down. They made it clear to the media that they have no idea about the bidding and it was said that they were set up as they put out scapegoats. 

"Do you think that we have to wait?" Vanessa asked Reinheart. "They have more crimes and just recently, photos of Jason Welch going into a Dominant Hotel was something else." 

"I think we have to wait." Butler Reinheart said. "There are a lot of crimes that we should unveil." 

"You are right. Besides, we will be busy in the upcoming days. That also includes the Royal Gala." 

"Right," Vanessa leaned on her seat. "I have to enjoy the party with my son and daughter-in-law." 

"Yes, you have to. I also appointed a doctor for her grace. I am sure that there will be a result of pregnancy after the wedding." 

She thought deeply. Currently, the problem with the Kennedy was still roaring in the social media although they covered it up. They will be sentenced in the right amount of days. But with how they torture the girls would put them in a life sentence. 

"Manslaughter," Vanessa mumbled. "If it's back in the old era. I am sure that they won't get away with it. They might even get hanged." 

"If that's possible," Butler Reinheart said. "Milady, there's currently a problem with Belmont." He kneels one knee beside her and reached for her hand. "Do you want me to handle it?" 

Vanessa smirked and looked down at him. 

"Yes, you should. After all, they did a terrible thing to my son." 

Butler Reinheart bowed his head. 

"As you wish," he kissed her hand and he stood to leave. 

Now isn't the time for revenge. She has lots of things to take care of. 

Vanessa finally went back to the foyer to greet the King and Prince Philip. 

"Uncles," She smiled at them and received warm hugs from them. 

"How are you dear?" The King asked. She stepped back and gracefully curtsied. 

"I am doing well, your majesty." 

Then, the Duke and Duchess of Westeria arrived together with Lady Harriet and Lord Hardin. The sibling's curtsy or bow to them. 

"Get in." The King waved as he laughed. He looked so much alive and so youthful these past few months. "Please take care of their things in their rooms," Vanessa told the maids and butler as they bowed. 

They went to the sunroom in the west wing. The two old men sat down gracefully as Butler Reinheart told the maids to distribute the hot tea and snacks. 

"It looks beautiful here," Victoria commented as Kenzo pulled a chair for her. 

"Yes, I redecorate the sunroom." Vanessa smiled. "I am glad that you like it, Duchess." 

"Do you like a sunroom too?" Kenzo asked and reached for his tea. Victoria was puzzled for a while. 

"Hey, I'm doing fine, my love." She chuckled. 

The old men grinned. It's in their family bloodline. They can give their wife's wishes in a snap. 

"You have lots of things to do. Don't worry about me." Victoria smiled widely at her husband. 

"You are doting as ever, Duke Kenzo." Harriet giggled. 

"It's in the blood." King Edgar and King Philip said at the same time. 

"What's bothering you, my dear?" King Philip asked Lady Vanessa. 

"Well, your highness. I had this hunch that something might have happened." Vanessa said. "We were currently busy with Duke Maverick's wedding. And although in the first hearing, everything went well. I am sure that there will be something unexpected that might come up." 

"With today's busy schedules, preparation for the Duke Maverick's wedding plus the upcoming Royal Gala. I am sure that they will take advantage of this busy time." Victoria agreed to Vanessa. 

"Then, what do you have in mind, Duchess?" The King asked since she spoke. She thought deeply. She already knows how to make twists in a story and as she also read other novels there were also times that she noticed some cliches. 

"They will probably make a plan to take out the Kennedys from the prison. I am sure that they have lots of connections after they've been committing a lot of crimes." 

"I agree with you, Duchess." Prince Philip smirked. 

"I will plan for any possible escape," Kenzo said. "Lord Hardin, what do you suggest?" 

Hardin thought deep as he tilted his head. 

"I think they already know that we are watching them. They are aware that it's an impossible escape. Increasing men is one thing that we should do, however, it might also affect the memories of the guards on duty. They might also plan on breaching the security by installing spies." Lord Hardin said. "I think we should think further on what we should monitor." 

"And maybe if they escape there would be another plan?" Victoria asked and shrugged. 

"Yeah," Kenzo smiled and patted her head. She frowned at him and he quickly put away his hand. 



After the tea gathering in the Sun Room, they finally retired to their room before the party. Victoria already prepared their clothes while Kenzo was currently relaxing on the sofa massager. She understands that the piles of work are something that would make him tired. This is why she doesn't always prepare sweets for him but also healthy foods. She also started joining him to exercise and prepare everything for him. 

"Love, aren't you tired?" Kenzo asked. 

"I'm not. I have had lots of energy these past few days." 

"Well, we haven't had~~" 

"You can have it tonight." She smirked at him. 

Kenzo grinned at her. 

"Love, you are great." 

"You are only saying that to make love to me twice." 

"Can we make it five times?" He teased her. 

Victoria scoffed and turned to him. 

"Your Grace, I thought you were tired?" 

"But my Duchess said that she has had a lot of energy these past few days. It's such a waste if we don't use that before we sleep? Isn't it right?" He smirked at her to tease her more. 

The Duchess groaned and reached the cushion and threw it to him. 

"I'm going to beat you up." 

"Riding on me like a cowgirl is enough." He teased further as he kept laughing. 

Victoria's face was bright red as she rushed to him and pinched his cheeks hard. 

"Ow!" Kenzo winched and held both of her wrists. "Alright, I'm sorry. Can we start now?" he grinned as he reached her small waist and rubbed it. "I want to have you right now." 

Victoria giggled and unbuttoned his shirt. He turned off the sofa massager as his mouth started working with her neck. 

"You smell good… so good." He reached her breasts and squeezed them gently. "You also feel great, babe." 

"Shut up, Kenzo." 

"Hey, I am just admiring you." He chuckled. "But let's remove this pretty dress first and you should undress." 

"Right, so you plan to be King and get lazy there?" She frowned at him. 

"Come on, baby. Just do this once and waste that energy of yours!" 

She groaned as she slipped off and stripped her clothes. Then, she helped him up and started with the foreplay. He only sat there, playing with her nipples, breasts, and between her legs. The couple made love before they planned to go to the game room. Kenzo was more than relaxed after that. 

Now, entering the game room, they waited for the groom and bride. Soon after they entered, Butler Reinheart and Butler Paul popped the party popper and they clapped their hands. 

"Congratulations!" 

"Hey, we aren't married yet." Maverick chuckled. "Save that word with more gifts after we are married." He joked. 

"Sure, I'll send play money." Kenzo joked back as they laughed. 

"We are here to play and eat," Maverick said and lifted his fiancee's hands. "Also to relax." Maverick already noticed the sofa massager. 

It should be a relaxing, beautiful party. They are indeed partying hard, playing while the old men receive a massage. The girls are drinking wine, except for Stacey. However, they still enjoy it. 

While they are enjoying themselves, somehow there's a man a few meters outside the Aqua Castle. The man was waiting inside the car like he's waiting for the time. Meanwhile, the cameras were doing well to monitor that person. Without any red light on, it should be far from being noticed. Lady Vanessa designed it herself as a hidden camera. She couldn't see the man's face because of the tinted car. But he has already captured the car and she's ready to follow it anywhere. 

"A spy," Vanessa mumbled as she stayed in the corner holding her tablet. She gracefully leaned her cheek over her hand. 

"Milady?" Butler Reinheart called, ready for any command. 

"Let it be. It's not a threat. He's trying to see if the Royals are here." 

"I see." Butler Reinheart said. "Would you like the strawberry cake?" 

"Yes, please." 

Butler Reinheart knew well that strawberry cake is what she liked most. This time, the strawberry cake had a twist. Since her daughter-in-law asked for an ice cream cake. She prepared one. Her butler gave it to her and he bent down. 

"Would you like the usual bath, milady?" 

"Yes, please." She nodded.. She glanced at the time and the old men already retired to their bed.
