Violette and Clara were staring at each other for two second before nodding, seeming to have a tacit
understanding.
They decided to let go of the matter, even though it was Selena's fault...
Now the girls were sitting on each of the sofa.
At the left sofa sat Selena, Kiara, and Catherine and on the opposite side or the right sofa sat Eva, Clara and Rose. While Alexia occupied the middle together with Zeth who was laying down.
Alex was not with them but is at the kitchen, getting some food because he wanted to celebrate together with them.
AlThough the living room was full of people yet strangely it was so silent.
After the fight no one dared to change the tense atmosphere inside the room.
Alexia seated just beside where Zeth's head is placed, planning to break the silence Alexia decide to ask.
"Hello what's your name miss?." Alexia asked
Alexia's voice sounded in the room, the other girl also being curious too looked at Zeth's direction. Wanting to know who this girl is since before, Alex was carrying her.
"Isn't it rude to ask someone's name before introducing yoursel?f." Zeth asked
"...Eh!?, ah! sorry how rude of me. My name is Alexia, I'm Alex's or guy who carried you before sister." Alexia said, while being startled at first. It was a bit awkward for her too because Zeth doesn't to show any emotion
"Mn, it's fine. He save me I think?." Zeth wondered
"Why does it seem like your not sure of it?." Rose joined and asked, she was happy when Alexia started talking and breaking the atmosphere before.
"Hmm...?" Zeth moved her head to turn to Rose
Thinking that she was rude Rose immediately introduced herself.
"S-sorry, my name is Rose, I-I'm A-Alex's g-g-girlf-f-riend." Rose didn't know was a bit timid when he introduced how she and Alex is related because almost everyone in the room is his girlfriend. With the tense atmosphere before she was afraid if someone got offended but after for a second it seems they weren't.
"It's fine, he just said to me that he will get me out of there and says he will take me to a place 100% times more better their." Zeth said
"I see." Rose nodded while Alexia also nodded. Alexia wanted to ask the same question too but since Rose already asked she just waited for the answer.
"Weird... why would Alex take someone away?, in case that place is really bad for you?." Violette asked, this time she was the one who speaks. She also looked at the corner of her eyes to see what Selena's reactions.
Selena just smiled, she didn't mean to cause a fight before. She also wanted to reconcile since she knows they will be sister soon, she was oblivious to what the two think of her as their mother in-law
Violette wanted to reconcile since you could say that she need to pay respects to Selena, her having a relationship with Alex.
"Right!...where did you live before?." Clara asked, she has the same intention as Violette, joining the conversation and somehow when Selena joined they would wait for an opportunity to reconcile
"Before I used to live with my mother, before getting kidnapped and sent to the Lab." Zeth said without emotion is as if she doesn't even care about it anymore.
"Oh!, sorry" Clara apologized
"Sorry"." Violette apologized
The others was shocked too that she was kidnapped in her childhood, they didn't want to ask what she experienced in the lab. Afraid of making her remember.
With that the atmosphere got dark.
No one said anything.
"What's wrong? why so silent? your not fighting anymore?." Alex voice sounded in room
Some sighed in relief since the air around the room will change since Alex is already here.
While some cursed him for asking about the fight.
"Where did you go anyway? Violette said with an annoyed to tone
'Tch! why did you even have to mention the fight, how can I face my soon to be mother in-law now?.' Violette thought
Clara glared at him fiercely
'What? how did both of them got angry of me' Alex thought while having a wry smile
"I wanted to celebrate and went to the kitchen to see if there were food, but there were not enough food." Alex said
"Why are we celebrating?" Rose asked
"I already finished my business here and for the hardwork at least I want to celebrate" Alex said
"Oh... the fight huh?." Selena said
"Yeah I was fighting really hard, if you could see you would see how hard I faced my enemies." Alex said, not knowing that they have seen half of his fight.
"Bah! Liar!...you work hard? look at yourself you don't even look tired, you even toyed with your enemies." Violette denied him, she was still angry at him
"Eh... did you watch me fight in the TV? but why did you know that it was me Violette? the only one who knows are the girls that was on this house." Alex asked, he knows that the girls in the house knew he was fighting when he leave Catherine in their care,
He was confused of why Violette know? thinking that the others told her, but denied that thought since the air before was dark and no one said anything. He was using [Phaseless Concealment] when he was fighting so he think that there is no way Violette could knew.
Although he could say the same for the girls in his house because when he left Catherine to their care, he is in his original appearance but with his urgent like tone when he left, the girls could knew that he will be going to fight. As for Violette there wasn't any hint so he think that how could she knew
'Eh wasn't Eva also so anxious when we met and she is at work, so maybe she also knew too and got worried?, but could that be' Alex is really confused right now
"I just know it, Clara also knows it." Violette said, breaking all the thoughts in Alex's mind
"Eh?.. you too?." Alex asked turning to Clara
"Mn..when we saw you at first,we felt it was familiar and thought it was you." Clara said
"Really?!...weird, if that's the case maybe we have a connection" Alex wondered
'Is it one of the perks in the System' Alex thought
"Nah! let's talk about that later, it's already 5:00 PM, it is also almost dinner, Both Violette and Selena go buy some ingredients to cook, remember to buy enough for everyone at least we will have a mini-party. Take this as an opportunity for you to reconcile, you can bring Clara and Kiara with you" Alex said and sat beside Alexia and leaned his head backward to the comfy sofa and close his eyes to rest, there were still some space in the sofa since it's big that can accommodate 4 people, and Zeth laying down is equal to two people sitting.
"....."
Kiara when she heard what he said screamed in her mind.
'Damn perverted cousin! at least try to hide it, do you even think how hard I try to remain as if I don't know anything all this time, with what you said right now. Of course everyone will at least have thought about it and that would include me, how can I still remain pretending as if I don't know anything!'
Selena didn't say anything...
While the other girls didn't say anything because they already knew about it last night, except for Violette, Clara, Zeth, and Catherine
Catherine just shake her head, thinking that maybe Alex has more authority in the house. It never crossed her mind that there could be an intimate relationship between the two.
Zeth stayed silent, she didn't understand.
Violette thought it was weird when Alex called his aunt by her name and ordered her as if he was the man of the house yet Selena didn't say anything it's as if it was normal.
It could also be said the same thing to Clara, like Violette she too felt that it was weird.
Both of them thought of something, but soon denied it thinking it was impossible.
"Aunt, you can lead Violette and Clara to the market since they are still new in this place." Alexia suggested
BOOOM!!!
Something exploded in Violette and Clara's mind, they remembered something when they heard Alexia talk.
Yes! that's right they remembered Alexia!. Alexia is Alex's sister if she is his woman, then his aunt becoming his woman isn't impossible!.
"Okay!, come with me you too, also sorry for before." Selena said, she apologized because she knew it was her fault, and she isn't some spoiled brat that would deny her mistake
"I'm sorry too." Kiara bowed slighly
"Ah!..no-no it's fine" Violette hurriedly shake her head.
"I'm also sorry." Clara also bowed, she was a princesses but she still bowed because they will be family
"Since things are okay now... let's go." Selena said and walk out of the living room
"Let's go!." Kiara came to Clara's side and grab her arm to follow Selena
"O-Okay, let's go Violette." Clara let Kiara lead her and said to Violette
"I'm coming" Violette stood up and followed
Soon the four already left the room...
"Okay girls while they are buying the ingredients for us, let's also prepare the things we need here." Alexia clapped her hands to gain their attention.
"Okay!" The remaining girls nodded and stand up
"Let's go to the kitchen first, to see if we can still make something from the leftover ingredients," Alexia said and went to the kitchen
The three remaining girls followed her mainly, Eva, Catherine, and Rose since Zeth still can't walk.
"Hello, I'm Catherine nice to meet you." Catherine striked a conversation to Eva
"That Catherine? from That organization?." Eva seemed to know Catherine, she then remembered that the organization's master just got killed by Alex while Catherine was here
"You know me? ah...miss?." Catherine asked
"Ah! sorry for not introducing myself, you can just call me Eva. About how I know you, well of course you are popular in our circle, you are a genius graduate from one of the best university too." Eva said
"Our circle?, which company did you work?" Catherine asked
"I-I'm a bit embarrassed to say since compare to yours our company is just 2nd rate, well I work for Imperial Corp." Eva said, a bit embarrassed
"No-no, actually I have heard of that company it has a good potential but because the way our organization works they have suppressed others." Catherine said, a bit sad
The two continued their conversation about business while helping the other two which is Alexia and Rose...
At the living room there were only Alex and Zeth while Alex was closing his eyes.
Zeth just stared at Alex who was closing his eyes
'Is he sleeping?' Zeth thought and stretched her arms to touch caress his face
After caressing him for a couple of seconds, Zeth stopped
'Eh? what am I doing?, but it seems he really is sleeping' Zeth thought, she tried to move her body and find out that she at least move a bit but she still cannot walk.
Knowing she can move her body a bit, Zeth slowly sit up from the couch, she looks at Alex's sleeping face and found that he was uncomfortable, she slowly hold his head and put it in her lap. naturally Alex face became comfortable
'It really is peaceful and comfortable here.' Zeth thought while caressing Alex's face and this time it is the second time her face formed a smile, sadly for Alex he didn't see it
Alex was now in the dream land but what he didn't while he was sleeping and dreaming something was currently happening with the systen
"What how could this happened!!!." Sistine was really anxious, she was managing the system to update Alex's mission and experiences when suddenly...

"How can I explain this to Alex?." Sistine was really worried
