Kamer Spencer received Rigel and Sonia almost with joy. They sat down to chat for a few minutes. Suddenly the conversation was diverting to another direction.
-You see, Mr. Spencer, although there is a business that the draconian council has, the tender has already been awarded to other distributors. The reason for our visit is due to another matter.- Sonia rocked her egg without worrying
- Honestly I am not understanding-
- Your grandson Arthur, I want you to leave him alone with the Tenembaum matter. As head of the Foxes I will not tolerate touching one of my relatives-
-What?! What are you aiming for with that cheeky statement. The Spencer and Fox have no relationship and ...-
-Hehe of course, I forgot to mention it. It turns out that since Saturday, the rishis accepted him as part of my people that is, he won a place among the dragons and he is no longer a Spencer. Kamer translation; now it's Arthur Fox-
-What the fuck did you do ?! Without my consent or that of my family, you dared to go against the rules and took a relative. This you will pay dearly! -
-Do you think that,crazy old man? Let's see what you can do, I'll wait for you here- Rigel crossed his legs, raised his hand and in a mocking tone, he sent him to hell
-Don't think you'll get away with it. I do not care that you are the patriarch of the Fox and less that you are the infamous black dragon. I will not let you take my grandson !! - Enraged Kamer stood up to reprimand Rigel
-Old man, I think it's too late to complain. The boy is already my relative and there is nothing you can do about it- Rigel laughed disgustingly and threw Kamer the verdict of the draconian council in the face
Kamer picked up the papers, almost crumpling with rage, to read them. The next few pages brought him up to speed on who gave the permission and his fury flared. Vera and Florence Spencer were a stain that he believed extinct but apparently they refused to disappear and to thwart his plans they had approached Arthur at some point.
The transfer permits were ready with a date after 2014 and to top it off they had his signature and that of his son Rouben. He realized that such documents were prepared in advance to get rid of his family name but how they managed to obtain his signature for that purpose puzzled him.
There was room for three more members who wanted to flee if they wanted to, and the more endorsements, the worse the outlook. It fell like a bucket of ice water to see Arthur's name and those who came out as responsible were nothing more and nothing less than his sisters and his mother Jodie.
Suddenly they open the door and his daughter-in-law along with his grandchildren entered. Something was wrong and he knew it when Jodie greeted Sonia and Rigel as if they were lifelong acquaintances, but the worst was yet to be revealed when Yolandi uttered an unexpected name.
-Hi Florence, how have you been ... sorry, I wanted to say Sonia! -Yolandi thought it better to make a disgusted face before her grandfather while she acted before everyone
-It's not possible! Your piece of spawn, I should have sent you to Senegal when I had the chance. You brainwashed my grandson !!! - Kamer approached Sonia but was stopped by Rigel and Arthur
-You made a mistake Kamer. You will have to give me explanations why you were forcing my son to do something that could kill him if he refused to follow your orders- Jodie became terrifying
Looking away, he refused to answer. They knock on the door again and the maid gives notice of the surprise visit from the Mcain family. Jodie walked over to Kamer and whispered in her ear.
-In view of the fact that you refuse to open your mouth, you will have to explain to the patriarch of the Mcain why Rouben married me when he was already married to Vera and with a daughter-
Kamer paled and swallowed hard. The Mcains entered and saw him lying on the ground while he remained supported by his arms and legs. Tulio and Chantel Mcain received the package from Jodie and when they read it they were irritated just thinking how wicked Kamer turned out to be.
The Mcain were very protective of their family members and even if they married or were adopted by others they would always keep the doors open to preserve their friendly relationship.
Arthur was very dear to them because he was born sick and they were always pending sending him with his mother to the best specialists so that he would recover, unlike the Spencer who wanted to see him in an asylum.
Chantel could only shake her head as she realized the reason behind the rush to marry Rouben to Jodie while Tulio had to decide whether to continue the business relationship between the two families.
They released Kamer and pushed him onto the couch. The interrogation would begin and they would impose a severe punishment.
- Hey Tulio, do you need us to help you? - Rigel adjusted his suit
-No need, this matter concerns the Spencers and Mcains. You can leave in peace and thank you very much- the Mcains sat down while the couple left for home.
The next day, Arthur brought up the gossip and the details of the meeting. Kamer explained his decision to match his son and grandson in addition to littering against Sonia. He had no regrets for what he did and that alone was enough for the Mcains to get the Spencers out of the majority stake in the international logistics business.
They would continue to pretend that nothing happened in order to keep their children's and grandchildren's jobs. No one wanted Kamer's dirty laundry to affect the good relationship of the younger ones. Jodie for her part chose to keep her distance from the trickster husband who touched her by taking her children with her since it would take time for him to rebuild her relationship when Rouben returned from abroad.
Natalie came back from the supermarket and saw her grandchildren packing the bags to go with their mother and the Mcains who were very angry. She realized that the Rouben affair was discovered and although it hurt her to lose her grandchildren, she could not stop the inevitable. They said goodbye to her and promised to visit her again.
Sonia was surprised at the speed with which the Mcains came to an agreement but she was more shocked that Arthur quietly moved into the apartment of her sister and her brother-in-law until they returned from their trip.
He was looking for an apartment to live alone so as not to worry his mother and sister any more. Sonia passed him the telephone number of the neighborhood commission of the building where they resided to find a vendor.
They were in the middle of the week and they went to keep Arthur company. Jodie and Yolandi arrived with dinner to brighten the occasion and lots of gifts for Bethel. As they ate without worry, Arthur stood in the middle of the hall. Rigel and Sonia were on guard when they noticed that his eyes changed color to deliver a prophecy.
- The shepherd's star accompanies Vega and Betelgeuse to find the sheep. The wolf that hides among rabbits seeks to erase the brightness of them, hunter go to the Avalon and you will find your family- finishing the words, he clung trembling to his brother-in-law
Arthur collapsed into Rigel's arms and began to convulse until he stopped breathing.
Rigel lowered him to the ground for Morty to do CPR while Sonia and Agnes fetched ice and wet a towel.
Jodie and Yolandi were terrified. They never saw Arthur in such a condition and believed that he was dying when he began to breathe normally. They all seemed used to dealing with something like that and they didn't come out of shock. Agnes wet his forehead and Sonia massaged his arms.
-Shit! Whoever tries I will kill them !! - Rigel was furious
-Do you know what it means? - Morty waited for an answer like the others
-Someone wants to take my baby and the two oracles of our family- gritting his teeth with anger he stared at the Bethel egg that began to emanate black smoke from the concern and fear that he felt.
