Ross and Leen went to see Pryor, while Brad and Sonia stayed in the office until the doors opened.
-Come on Sony, we have 20 minutes until it open. They will go directly. Let me love you for a while, so, why I hurry with that witch if you're going to have me like this-
-Mmmm not enough for you, you are very intense and vigorous, so hurry up before I go-
When they were most animated, someone knock on the door insistently
-They would go to the compound, who the hell is it? -
-That smell ... disgusting. What the fuck do they want? We've been interrupted twice today! - Brad sniffed to find out the identity of the intruder
He adjusted his clothes and opened the door, to find his biological siblings standing outside.
-The directors are meeting with Pryor. They will go directly to the doors, if you want to tell them something go there but if it is due to time changes you should consult Quito- Brad was about to close the door when Laika put his foot to avoid it
-We didn't come for your bosses. We want to talk to you-
-...-
-Brother, why didn't you tell us that you grew up and got married- Yona was pretending to smile
-That, you... Long, I don't have much time-
-Stop wanting to close the door in my face, what's wrong with you-
-What's wrong with me ... since when do you want to know what's wrong with me? Get out of here or I'll report you to your supervisor-Brad looked angrily at his watch
-Since when you are so haughty. Just because you grew up late, and married that nobody Pinky without permission, do you think you're better. When dad finds out, you'll be in trouble ...-
Before he could finish his sentence a punch flew to Laika's face and threw him against the wall. Brad was furious and going for more. The rest of his siblings ran to one side of the fear that emanated.
-What did you say? I can't hear you, speak louder!- He stood on top and started hitting him.
-Enough, leave that idiot, it was enough. I have to go, there are five minutes until it open. See ya, then we continue- Sonia says goodbye annoyed with the unwanted visit
-Not! Why?! This is his fault ... damn- Brad kept hitting Laika
-I told you to stop. Don't kill anyone, take it out on something else. As for you guys go to work, I already notified Velir about your stupidity, fuck off and thank you that he didn't kill Laika ... shuu- Sonia got mad at the Trudys and kicked Laika's fallen in combat.
The Trudys dragged her brother away. He happened to come out in one piece and didn't end up like Jonathan.
-They will come back and continue fucking us-
-In your free time, go to work, call Mama and Aunt Maggie on the way. Tell them to move forward with the papers, hurry up before they get ahead.
Sonia left and left a Brad in need of her and very angry with the Trudys. He sat down and called her aunt to resolve the matter once and for all.
After an hour, Aunt Maggie was having breakfast with Victorious and a retinue of lawyers and notaries to prevent the news from reaching him.
-My nephew became friends with him and appreciates very much, that's why we want to adopt him. No problem right? -
- There you if you want that useless one among your people. In the same way, he is no longer our relative. He is not even listed in the records. Take it if you want-
-I can really do that? You won't regret it...will you Vic? -
-Why do you reiterate the question? You doubt my words-
-...-
-That sickly is not my relative. I doubt it carries our blood. His mother denied that my son was his father before she died-
-It's the problem with having so many concubines. But I still don't understand why you decided to keep it then-
-It was pity or maybe piety, I don't know. What I do know is that he grew up being a good-for-nothing useless. Just so you can see that it was frowned upon, neither we nor Felicity Charles's family wanted to do the ritual of formalizing the engagement-
-So you left the boy without a partner all this time and you didn't tell him. How cruel, but who am I to judge-
-Yes, just take it. I will never regret it-
-I see, there are no regrets, no claims. Shona pass the papers-
-Because there are so many. It's just an adoption-
-Actually I need a formal resignation from you first, being the patriarch, the decision of your son, his pseudo father is unnecessary. I also need you to place your seal to prohibit the dragon clan from approaching him and that whatever he does is our business and not yours. I explain?-
-A transfer of rights. But for other clans you will have to ask for their stamps.-
-I'll see how I get them. Don't worry Vic-
For a brief moment, Victorious felt doubt and looked at Maggie who was smiling very happy for something that no one had thought of. He was filled with guilt and a bad feeling as he signed the last document and put down the pen.
-Perfect, Shona urgently take this to court and tell them to pass it on now. Poppy delivers this to the registration area, have it sealed and posted this afternoon.
-Mag what the fuck are you doing? I didn't know that this would make you so happy-
-Oh Vic, you have no idea. I was almost half July trying to get your permission and now it is more than official. Thank you.-
-Half July? You said you came up with this week-
-I said that? How inconsiderate, we already adopted the boy a long time ago, he even has a new name and family. Call me heartless bitch for tricking you but you are more heartless by abandoning your grandson to die alone-
-What's going on? What did you do Maggie?! -
-You'll find out soon. Thank you for giving us this humble gift. By the way, Papa Rabbit sends you greetings, he was the one who signed part of the adoption-
Victorius fell silent when he heard the name of the wise rabbit. Maggie prepared to leave, not before dropping another bomb.
-Right, I almost forgot... Brad got married to Sonia Pinky on Saturday and they are both already using their new names. They are Mr and Mrs Fox. Perhaps at the rate they go, they will have children soon. But that shouldn't matter to you since you are no longer his relative. Have a good day Vic-
The shock for Victorius was enough. The grandson that he once had, had already married without even notifying him. He did not come to ask his family for help not once and instead dedicated himself to making his life and working for something else. He vaguely remembered Colin's words about his younger brother.
He said that he seemed happier and that he made several friends. He was having fun and even his scales looked brighter. He went from being a weak and sick dragon to someone who could handle himself.
The doubt he had while he signed was growing. There had something strange and he had to discover the reason for the abrupt change in his grandson. When he got home, his wife Fanny and Laura glared at him.
-Now what the fuck is wrong with you? Stop acting like fucking jealous-
-Vico, tell me why you turned off your cell phone, you didn't do anything stupid, right? -
-What?-
-Brad, you were able to talk about him. The hares will help you to return him home if you ask them-
-Brad ... heh, why would I want him to come back? The Lappyns and Foxes adopted him. They took a weight off us-
-I told you we should go with you. God you are an asshole! What the hell did you do!
Victorius learned of the news from his wives and the report delivered by his right hand Paul. His grandchildren notified their grandmothers, to ask permission to bring Brad back but they had to wait for the result of the meeting with the hares.
Maggie was clever in calling him urgently to discuss the matter, so much so that she even avoided outside contact until the papers were completed.
The shocking news that Brad was the first black dragon in centuries upset him. He had just made the biggest mistake of his life, one that he would regret for a lifetime.
