Nathaniel relaxed his muscles as the corner of his eyes saw Alex's remote controller for activating and deactivating trap mechanisms. Also, based on the multiple button on it, he deduced that it was also use for other type of mechanisms.
Which it lead him the connection between he steel gate, door earlier and the remote controller.
'It's seems like it is a multifunctional remote controller' his lips curved and was amused of the young man's meticulous planning for self-convenience.
'Indeed. Just like the saying goes, lazy people made the world easy and convenient' he concluded as he carefully observed the young man's dishelleved appearance after waking up because of disturbances outside his room.
"So, what are you here for?" Alex asked lazily as he was rubbing his stomach.
'I feel so bloated~~' he thought and decided to walk for digestion later.
"Uhh... W-We were looking for a temporary shelter. There are many of us and a small sugar grainery couldn't accommodate us entirely. Also, our men already exhausted their energy---"
Wilson was explaining their situation to Alex like a loyal subordinate which made Nathaniel furrow his brows.
Although the young man looked so harmless, he's not a kind of man who let his guard down so easily despite feeling comfortable just by looking to the young man.
After all, they are in a new era which human morality is no longer given emphasis but power and strength.
A power of influencing human survivors by securing their food consumption, shelter, safety and other necessary needs and wants.
While, strength refers to the awakening of ability attribute and use it for protecting the mankind for future generations.
Otherwise, they will be annihilated without fighting back.
Alex made a stop hand sign to Wilson as he doesn't understand what he was saying at all!
Wilson was using military terminologies which he hated so much to hear before he was brought back to the Fernandez Family.
He didn't know the reason why he hate hearing such military terminologies while idolizing the prestige of military soldier.
Then, the Fernandez Family brought him back, his fifth brother was always using military terminologies which made him realize that his family has military, political and economical influence in the nation.
He was speechless!!
He concluded that the culprit was his father!!
Because he is his third son, he should be the one shouldering the military might of Fernandez Family but he was so lazy to do so!
This was also the reason why his fifth brother was displeased of him! His fifth brother is the youngest among siblings but he was pressured by their father instead of him - the third son!
This made their brotherly bond awkward.
"W-What's wrong?"
Wilson asked as he was stopped by Alex and he's not displeased of the young man's rudeness. He peeked onto the young man's face and was shocked to see his darkening and gloomy face.
Also... why was the young man's aura turned fierce like a waking tiger?!!
Wilson panicked and subconsciously turned his head to Nathaniel as if asking for a help.
Nathaniel shrugged as he doesn't know how to coax a child and a woman, let alone the young man in front of him.
Wilson and Nathaniel are the only child of their family.
They were both pampered and got everything they want and need back then.
However, Wilson's family was unlike Nathaniel's family.
Wilson's family was always siding with him despite being insensible and unreasonable...sometimes.
His family loves him dearly and will never any harm upon him.
While Nathaniel's family was filled with pack of wolves in human's clothing.
His uncles and aunties were fighting for family inheritance, although their father (his grandfather) is dead yet.
Which is why Nathaniel doesn't have an idea on how to pacify a child and a woman at all!
Alex came back to his senses after hearing Wilson's and Nathaniel's helpless faces while looking on his way.
He looked up at them with his harmless and innocent smile.
Wilson sighed a huge relief and patted his chest. He doesn't have a younger brother so, just like Nathaniel, he doesn't have an idea how to coax the young man in front of him, too!
"Fortunately... Fortunately.."
Wilson murmured to himself.
Alex was dumbfounded and immediately realized...
'Uhhh... Isn't this too much understanding?' he thought.
"Are you living alone?" Nathaniel decided to change topic, otherwise, their efforts for coming in this house will be for nothing.
Alex ignored Wilson and looked up at Nathaniel. His lips was twitching as he took a closer look on Nathaniel.
'Wasn't he my childhood nemesis?!!!' he exclaimed.
Before he was abducted, he became Nathaniel's little playmate.
The last time he went out of Nathaniel's family mansion, he took his pants and shirt while Nathaniel was taking a bath.
He hid it as his little prank.
But, who would have thought that the abduction will happen after going out of the Trinidad Family?
Alex was sweating, not because of Wilson's and Nathaniel's tremendous and fierce aura for intimidating enemies but because of his past with Nathaniel.
He panicked as he saw Nathaniel's frown.
'Pleaseeee!! Don't remember me!!' his heart shook when Nathaniel slowly walked towards his direction.
"Why are you sweating?" Nathaniel checked the young man's forehead. His eyes showed his bewilderment after doing so.
"You don't have fever but...why are you sweating?" Nathaniel asked.
Meanwhile, Wilson was shocked of Nathaniel's sudden gentleness.
If he didn't gift Nathaniel a women on his 20th birthday, he will doubtfully question Nathaniel's sexual orientation right here, right now!!
