Harriet was pouting while Kane was approaching her. She heard from her father that they are going to make Kane assist on the upcoming business trip of Duke Kenzo. She couldn't go with him and she hated it. They already kissed passionately that night and yet he still didn't confirm their relationship.
"What's wrong?" He asked.
"When you went on that Business Trip, you might find someone else better." She crossed her arms. He chuckled instead of coaxing her. He reached her cheeks and kissed her nose.
"That won't happen. And if I find someone better, then" He shrugged and she smacked his chest.
"I will tell my dad to arrange a marriage with you."
Kane was a little surprised by her sudden announcement. He doesn't mind at all but she's going to ruin all of the plans that he had in his mind.
"Hey," he squeezed her cheeks. "Don't do that. We still have to date normally and get engaged normally."
"Kiss me." She demanded and he kissed her nose. "Lips!" She demanded again. He gently pressed his lips to her lips.
They both didn't realize that Hardin was fifteen meters away from them, sitting on the bench. The post light was busted, that's why they couldn't see him there. This is not the first time that they went out to see each other in the garden. They were also all lovey-dovey every time that they saw each other. It's annoying for Hardin.
"Cut it out!" Hardin shouted at him. "Both of you are giving me a massive headache."
Kane and Harriet turned their heads to him but they seemed to ignore him and kissed each other. Harriet doesn't mind that Hardin knows about their relationship. But Kane seemed to have a big explanation toward Hardin.
"Let's have a midnight snack?" He asked and held her hand. "What movie should we watch?"
Hardin sprinted toward them and jumped on Kane's back and grappled his neck.
"Ow!" Kane frowned at him.
"How dare you leave me alone, you little bastard." Harding rumbled. She rolled her eyes and smacked Hardin's arm.
"You can join us if you want," Kane said and intertwined his arms to the back of his knees and pulled him up. Hardin smiled at the piggyback ride and showed his tongue to his sister.
Kane carried him to the theater room. He didn't notice that Harriet had been frowning a lot but after he put down Hardin, he sat down and let Harriet sit on his lap. He adjusted a little not to show that he was getting turned on with being closed like that. The couple ignored Hardin's frown toward them and he chose the movie to watch.
"Can I go?" She asked him.
"No." He caressed her hair. "But I will call you every break time." He kissed her cheeks and hugged her like a teddy bear."
"Don't forget that your big brother still exists here, Harriet," Hardin said aloud while munching on his Jalapeno flavor popcorn. "You and Kane aren't supposed to be lovers."
"But we are." She snorted and moved closer to Kane. Kane stopped himself from reacting.
Smelling her this close, touching her this close, and having her hand patting his crotch was something that he should not agree on having her close like this. Plus, there's her brother who was there as their third wheel. He carefully scooped her and put her on the seat on his right and he crossed his legs and stared at the monitor.
"I will sleep with you tonight."
"No!" Kane and Hardin said at the same time, scowling her.
Harriet pouted and sighed.
"Whatever. You two suck!"
She crossed her arms and reached the remote to change the movie. Kane noticed that she's being grumpy so he reached her left hand and intertwined it.
"Don't be grumpy. What do you want to drink?" He smiled at her and kissed her temple.
Renzel felt relieved after Victoria gave him an iron medicine. He fell asleep in a snap. But then, he woke up suddenly feeling a little thirsty. He took a bottle of water and drank all of it. He reached the door of his room and slowly opened the door. He stopped when he noticed someone kneeling in front of someone else's door.
He stayed hidden and watched as the woman peeked through the small hole. He heard a little sound of giggling and it might be Victoria and Kenzo. It was normal for a couple to make love all night but what he was suspicious about is that woman peeking at the door. He listened as she made a heavy breathing sound and touched herself.
Shortly, the woman stood and left quickly in the other direction without seeing him. He stared at Victoria and Kenzo's room. He came out and closed the door of his room. He needs to tell this to Victoria by tomorrow. He glanced at his fitness band and frowned. Two in the morning, he was surprised that the couple could have it until morning. Well, sex was something that could always spice up the relationship. Victoria and Kenzo are still in the honeymoon stage.
He went to the nearby balcony and inhaled the refreshing scent. It's his first time to be in Westeria Castle. It looked all stunning from each side.
"Renz?" A familiar voice suddenly called. He turned around to see Victoria holding a tray and wearing her long nightgown and robe. "Why are you awake?"
"I was thirsty." He lifted the bottle of water.
"Okay, do you want something to eat?"
"No. I'm fine."
"Where are you going?" He asked.
"To the nearby kitchen. My husband is hungry."
"Can I follow?" He asked.
"Sure." She smiled.
They went to the kitchen downstairs and he was surprised that it was along with the office of the Duke and her office. It was also locked and it needed her access before they could get in.
"Why does this have so much access?"
"I am afraid that Kenzo might get poisoned. Or I might get poisoned. I usually bake for Kenzo and prepare all of his snacks."
"Oh," He nodded and admired how organized she was.
"My husband loved cooking." She said,
"Can we close the door?" He asked. Renzel closed the door and he looked around.
"What's wrong?" She asked.
"Just ten minutes ago, a woman was outside your room, peeking through the keyhole."
Victoria froze from picking the fruits.
"Who is it?" She asked.
"I can describe her." He said. "But I didn't get to see her whole face. But from the side view, I think I know who it is."
"My husband had this stalker. A secret admirer and she always wrote lewd messages and death threats toward me."
"Why didn't you tell me?" Renzel frowned at her.
"I don't know." She shrugged. "I am used to not telling anyone in our family." She sighed and took the strawberries and washed them carefully with baking soda. She continued washing it.
"That woman is crazy." He said. "I hate to say this. But it's true."
"I know." Victoria nodded her head. "Don't worry, Kenzo was already doing everything to track that woman. Then, you gave me an idea that she's one of my people."
In the morning, Renzel has her usual breakfast with Victoria and Kenzo. His energy was replenished and he's not eating take-out from some restaurants. He's eating delicious healthy foods that the Duke prepared by himself. It's only the three of them that are eating. Victoria doesn't want anyone to dine with them this time. Maybe because of what he said earlier this morning.
"By the way, since we are done with breakfast, let's talk about business," Kenzo said. "We can invest like Victoria said and take you as one of our business partners. But we can only deal with it when it's you."
"I understand." Renzel nodded. "After pulling out those contracts, I have to find a bigger industry."
"I know just one. You can speak with Duchess Stacey." She smiled. "This is our recent project. Only girls."
"Alright," He nodded his head. "But I'm not a girl, Victoria." Renzel chuckled, which made Victoria giggled and Kenzo grinned.
He glanced at the woman who came and bowed. He stared at her for a while and looked at Victoria.
"Are you going to work now?"
"I was about to visit Mila. We can go together."
"Sure," Renzel said.
"Pauline," Victoria looked at her assistant. "Please check other things with Butler Grayson and Headmistress Rhianna. I want the details needed for the upcoming budget."
"Yes, your grace."
Then, she looked at her handmaiden named Arlene.
"Arlene, You should stay too."
"Yes, madam."
"Are you alright with your bodyguard only?" Kenzo asked.
"Yes, love. I will have to buy a lot of things for your upcoming trip."
"You can take your assistant."
"It's alright." She smiled at him.
Renzel dressed up first and groom himself. Then, he came out and went to the hall where Kenzo was waiting for his dear wife.
"Will you be alright?" Renzel asked.
"Yes," He told him. "Our recording in that hallway has been getting cut lately. Thank you for giving my wife a head's up."
"Sure. We are family after all." It's the first time that Renzel had said it with anyone. Victoria is indeed his family and everyone in the family treats her like an illegitimate, mostly the mother whom she grows old with. But the fact was, she's the real Parson. "It might be too late to help her but I never think of her as an outsider."
"I know." Kenzo smiled. "Victoria kept everything you gave to her as a birthday gift. Even Christmas gifts."
Renzel suddenly felt an odd warmth in his chest.
