"Why don't you tell me that Kevin and the others are coming?" Jason asked Laura when the two of them were painting the side house.

Laura shrugged. "Is there any need for me to tell you about that?"

Jason smiled wryly. If he knew that they were going to come here, he wouldn't come over because he didn't want to make things difficult for Kanae. If others knew that they have close relation, the two of them were going to be in a huge trouble.

"It's fine for them to come, right?" Laura arched her eyebrows. "Sis seems to be really happy when I say that we can invite them here."

Jason was certain that Kanae would be happy to meet Kevin again considering how the two of them have been interacting so far. The real problem lied in different place because he didn't want to let others knew about their real relationship. After all, he met Kanae in the first place because he roamed on the street at night.

"How do you know she's happy?"

"Her eyes are sparkling," Laura answered. "She rarely shows her emotion to me when it's about other people. Because it's rare for her to be excited when someone comes over, I think it'll be better for me to agree with her decision."

"You're right," Jason nodded his head in agreement. Kanae would not even excited if a high ranking official came over to meet with that lass, but it was different when the one who came was Kevin. After all, she has feeling for that man.

"Okay, it's finished," Laura said proudly as she looked towards the small house in front of her. It was painted in peach color.

Jason nodded his head. "Now, let's clean up."

"Not so fast," Laura grinned. She raised her brush. "Let's play a bit."

Jason's expression dropped when he saw the brush heading towards his body. Hey! He didn't come here because he wanted to be covered in paint all over his body! With no other choice, he ran across the place with Laura chasing behind him with her brush at the front.

"They're very energetic," Tommy was stunned to see the usually annoying and proud Jason would run like a child in front of a young woman.

Alice giggled. "It seems they're very excited with the decoration."

"More like, he's troubled with Laura's mischievousness," Tommy smiled wryly. He knew that Laura was quite mischievous, but he didn't know that it would be this bad. Little did he know that the little lass only held back if it was in front of other people.

"You have finished cooking?" Kanae came down with Kevin following behind her.

"Yes, I make some cookies and cold milk," Alice pointed to the table. "Have you finished moving the things?"

"All that's left is in the first floor for the items that Mike and Neo placed in the hall," Kanae pointed to the two busy boys by the side. "I'll ask the servant to place them in accordance."

"It'll be faster with my help," Kevin remarked.

"You're busy, Kevin," Kanae rolled her eyes. "You know how much of a workaholic you are, so please take care of yourself more."

Kevin nodded his head. "I know."

Kanae looked towards Kevin suspiciously. Previously, he was still up until it was late at night because of the work he had to do. She didn't really trust him in the matter of works because he would surely push himself to do more work as long as it was possible for him.

Placing his hand on top of her head, Kevin messed up her hair. "Do you not trust me?"

"Hey! Stop it!" Kanae grunted. She slapped Kevin's hand, pushing it away from her head. Unfortunately, he had caused her hair to be very messy. She released the tie that she used to tie her hair, letting her hair fall to the side, changing her appearance very much.

Seeing the different appearance of Kanae, the other there were stunned. Tommy already saw it before, but he still couldn't help himself but admire it. After all, she looked far more beautiful this way. For Alice, this was the first time she saw Kanae looked so different.

Kevin raised his hand and touched Kanae's cheek as Kanae tied her hair back. She frowned back to him. "Is there anything wrong?"

"Have we met in the past before we meet in Nolen School C?" Kevin asked. That appearance of hers with her hair flew freely made him felt that they have met with each other in the past. It felt rather familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it before.

Kanae tilted her head. "I don't think we meet with each other before. I can't remember meeting you."

Considering Kevin's status as the young master of Ryukalin Clan, there was no chance for the two of them to meet with each other in the past. Even if they did meet coincidentally as passerby, there was no way they would know each other.

"I guess so," Kevin nodded his head. That would be too impossible for the two of them to meet before like this. If he had met with her personally, he should have known about her name from a long time ago.

"Oh, the foods are ready!" Laura exclaimed when she saw the numerous snacks on the table. Beads of sweat filled her forehead as she has been spending her time chasing after Jason.

"Yup, let's eat together," Kanae grinned. "Have you caught him successfully?"

"No," Laura's face darkened. "He's too fast."

Jason walked in while laughed heartily. "Of course I have to be fast. I don't want to stain my clothes with paint."

"I'll try it again after eating."

Jason: "…" you haven't given up yet?

The other two boys quickly joined in with their simple snack together. It has been a long time since the last time they spent the time together like this.

As it was already afternoon, Kevin brought the others home. Jason also swiftly ran away from the house because he didn't want to be chased by Laura around the house again. It was already very tiring to run around so much.

"How many rooms is there in this mansion, Sis?" Laura asked Kanae as she moved to the kitchen to prepare for their dinner. The servants were now busy moving things around. Because Kanae had hired more people, there were already more than enough people to work here.

"Second and third floor each have 20 rooms, every rooms are very large," Kanae answered. "The fourth floor has 16 rooms with an open garden in the middle, while the first floor has eight rooms."

"It'll surely give us a lot of profits if we open up the mansion as a hotel," Laura's eyes sparkled in excitement.

Kanae nodded her head. "It'll surely be since each room can be priced at dozens of millions considering their size and the facility in this place. But I doubt the elders are going to be happy if they know about your plan."

Laura crossed her arm as she smiled deviously. "If they want to confront me, they're free to do so, but I won't back down so easily. I don't want to live here and leaving this place unattended will only be a hassle as the electricity is quite expensive."

Kanae chuckled. "Just do what you think is good. I'll support you."

"I know, Sis," Laura nodded her head. She turned to the servants. "Inform them that I'm going to open this place as a hotel to earn more profit. If they want to complain, they're free to do so."

"Yes, Miss."

Right now, the servants were all very obedient with Laura's order. After the incident in the first place, not a single one of them dared to fight back against this one woman.

Kanae watched as Laura gave her instruction to the servants. She shook her head lightly. Tomorrow was going to be very lively.
