"Why bro did not oust her out of the hotel? It's quite shocking." asked Jonah after he lost the bet to his grandmother who still wore the winning smirk on her face.
"Because of his weaknesses." replied Kathrine coolly.
"Wait a minute, Alec Bro come here." Jonah called out for his brother who just happened to pass by after the incident at gazebo which William, Jonah and Katherine doesn't know yet.
"What?" Alec asked to everyone curious.
"Bro, Mimi is saying that she knows our weaknesses. Does she have an x-ray machine in her eyes?" Jonah said trying to examine Kathrine's eyes.
"It's not x-ray, it's experience Jo." replied William slapping lightly on Jonah's head playfully.
"Faults within me, impossible." Alec declared too proud of himself but his grandmother proved him wrong with her next words.
"Dear every person has qualities, if it is positive then it is our strength other wise they are our weaknesses. Iron has great tensile strength so it does not break easily but it doesn't mean it can float on water too." said Kathrine to make her grandsons understand that no one is perfect.
"But Mimi bro is a very good swimmer." interrupted Jonah but in return he only got slapped by Alec and William both this time.
"Your biggest weakness is that you are too proud of your family name. You see person's nature by its family background and not by their work profiles." said Kathrine in a mocking way to Alec.
"Because of this bro has not forced that church girl out until now?" Jonah asked Mimi.
"Which girl?" Alec might know the answer but decided to play dumb.
"Don't play dumb. By the way we are talking about the church girl plus today's caterer." replied William to Alec to which he only groaned. Alec didn't want his family to find out about that incident but they did anyway.
"He didn't fight with that girl because hatred is also a relation and The Alec Casey Galitzine forms the alliances only with his status group. For him rivalry is also done by seeing the family background." continued Kathrine.
"Let's suppose Alec falls in love with a girl who belongs to low status then?" inquired Will.
"Like the church girl. Admit it they did have some hate chemistry between them." Jonah concluded but was again rewarded with a slap on head but this time it was only from Alec.
"Hey this will never happen my whole body is in my control even my heart." Alec proclaimed.
"Kiddo Love is all about loosing control. Peter, your grandad always said if Love's train once leaves the station it does not see the red signal." Kathrine said remembering his exact words.
"Wow Mimi, it's mine turn now. When Dada was so daring, his grandsons too are venture, he was Texas's lady killer we are NYC's lovers." Jonah said posing like a great poet and smiling like he said the most romantic poem ever.
"Okay stop it Jo, it was really bad. Now leave about me and tell about Will." Alec asked their grandmother curiously giving a knowing look to William.
"I am independent I don't believe in surnames nor in status, I accept the way others are. I believe in truth and it's reality, there is no power greater than truth. Right Mimi." said Will with utmost sincerity which made Katherine proud.
"But also there is no less weakness than truth. Gold can be turned into hard Jewellery when some impurities are mixed. But dear if we have to make our lives beautiful then we have to add little bit spice, a little lie and little dreams in them otherwise it seemed boring." replied Kathrine.
"But I can't add lie to my life Mimi." said Will.
"So your partner will mix it. Whatever faults are in you your opposite will fill the gaps." said Kathrine which made the young hunks thoughtful for a moment.
"But Mimi I am perfect, I have six pack abs, sports cars, mansions, girls and I even have my parents intact." said Jonah smiling from ear to ear.
"Your biggest weakness is that you don't want to see beyond the luxuries. Why do you run after girls, have flings, what do you even see in them?" asked Kathrine to her youngest grandson.
"Mimi I can't tell you what I see in them." replied Jonah with tongue in his cheek.
"Shameless." Alec, Will and Kathrine all muttered at the same time while giving him an impossible look.
"Kids you will never know when your love begins to blossom." Kathrine added but all of them just smiled thinking that it will not be possible.
OUTDOOR KITCHEN
"Hmm what a mouthwatering smell." Sierra said when she entered the cooking area after receiving the news that her BFF was the caterer for today's event.
"Oh my milkshakes, Sierra what are you doing here? Anyways I was getting bored to death, now you are here thank god. BTW these big people's big functions are so boring. I thought Dwayne Johnson or Chris Evans will be here but not even Johnny Depp is here. I am damm sure they lie about meeting celebs. BTW how do you know these deceivers?" asked Carolyn all in one breath.
"This liar's family is also mine and this big function is also organised by us." said Sierra calmly almost giving Carolyn a mini heart attack.
"Ohhhh....WHAT" shouted Carolyn and almost died of panic attack.
"Yup." Sierra said amused by her reaction.
"That means that arrogant prick was.... I mean is your brother." asked Carolyn still a little fazed.
"Yups but come on he is not that bad." Sierra tried to convince Carolyn but she was still in a denial.
"Cici who is she?" asked Kathrine when she looked Sierra talking to someone.
"Mimi she is Carolyn and Caro this is my Mimi, Mrs. Kathrine Eva Galitzine, my grandmother." Sierra introduced the two ladies to each other.
"Nice to meet you Carolyn." Kathrine said formally but inside she was jumping to finally meet the girl to tame his first grandchild, the most difficult person to tame. She is proud of Alec's success but his anger issue is a major issue for the family.
"Hi I am Carolyn Harper Kurt, the pleasure is all mine to meet the strongest lady." replied Carolyn after she overcame her nervousness.
"I am sorry Sierra, you never told me that you are the only sister of the three hot Galitzine brothers well make that two, because the eldest one is total a boastfullll... I mean he is too arrogant." said Carolyn just correcting herself on time but Katherine understood and had a smile plastered on her face to conceal her excitement.
"Oh Cici why didn't you tell her about us?" asked Kathrine the same thing.
"Mimi she would have never became my friend and mostly she would have never taken this job. She has a lot of self respect. You know Mimi she is the only one who became my real friend without knowing my status." said Sierra proud to be Carolyn's friend.
"Wow Carolyn you have received great manners from your parents." said Kathrine impressed but Carolyn doesn't have her parents but she didn't told that to anyone.
"Ya, Sierra is very lucky to have such an amazing and loving family." commented Carolyn only if she knew that this family is a total mess.
OUTDOOR KITCHEN (after Sierra and Katherine left)
"Will she is one tough girl and a great window breaker too. We should at least talk to her once. What's say?" asked Jonah. They both came to know that Caro is here in outdoor kitchen by Kathrine and it was Jonah's idea to meet her once. William was too excited, so they are here following their grandmother's advice.
"BTW you are very brave." commented Jonah to Carolyn who was confused to why she was praised for cooking on high flamed grill.
"It's no big deal. You can also do it." Carolyn said carefully putting the sticky grilled chicken aside. They were thinking about different things. The brothers about the car scene while Carolyn thought that they were praising her cooking skills.
"No, I can't even think about doing so." replied Jonah.
"How did you do it?" asked Will curiously.
"You will also get habitual. After all it's my profession." replied Carolyn while continue to grill the chicken.
"Profession??" said both brothers astonished.
"No one stops you from doing it?" asked Jonah bewildered.
"Why will anyone stop me? Instead they praise me." said Caro proudly. While the brothers stared at her shocked at her blunt reply. Jonah saw Alec nearby who was talking to some foreign delicates.
"Don't you fear anyone?" William asked perplexed.
"Why fear when I have talent?" Carolyn answered confused by the conversation.
"Do you do it alone?" Jonah asked again.
"You both are too funny. Why will I need a PA for it?" Carolyn commented.
"Seriously!!!" William and Jonah said at the same time.
"You should sometimes taste from my hand." Carolyn said signaling towards her hand.
"No it's okay, Will let's go. Big bro will be searching for us." Jonah said hurriedly taking William along leaving Carolyn confused.
"Yes we also have to get ready too." William also said following Jonah.
INAUGURATION PARTY
The party finally started and the guests were given their places. The one heir who will be proceed the ribbon cutting ceremony will became the next CEO of The Galitzine Empire. All of the people were impatient and curious to know about the new heir who will continue the legacy.
Carina wanted Alec to enter first while Alvaro was sure that William will be the next CEO. But their dreams were crushed when the three brothers entered the hall on the same time looking devilishly handsome making the girl population go crazy.
While on the other hand.....
"Sierra Galitzine, whom do you think will be the next CEO?" the media asked Sierra who was just walking across the hall towards the main podium. She was not used to this much attention and always stand behind the camera to avoid them because of her stammering disability.
"Please answer." Asked another one from the crowd.
"Sierra ma'am who is the best deserving of them?" They continued with their questions.
"Sierra answer us." All of them said at same time while Sierra was getting anxious.
"Sierra!!!" Caro shouted as soon as she saw her surrounded by media, Carolyn knew her best friend was afraid of all the attention.
While Carina came rushing towards Alec and said to do ribbon cutting ceremony while Alvaro pushed William forwards whispering harshly in William's ear.
"It's just ribbon cutting ceremony anyone of them can do it. Why does the media seems so desperate?" Carolyn said with a distastefulness in her voice.
"It's because we are Galitzine's and we are a live show to them. Who so ever does the ribbon cutting will lead grandfather's name ahead. He will be the sole head of all. My brothers, they all love each other and today one of them will be on high post, it will break them." Sierra said while sobbing at the thought of her brother hating each other.
"No shh nothing like that will happen. Please don't cry mi amor." Carolyn said while hugging and consoling her BFF.
"Cici, what happened?" Kathrine asked rushing towards them.
"Mrs. Galitzine nothing serious, now she is fine." Caro said to a very worried Kathrine.
"Cici come let's go to your suite." Kathrine said to Sierra and taking her along.
"It's okay Mrs. Galitzine, your presence here matters more, I will take her." Carolyn politely offered to take Sierra.
"Thank you child and call me Mimi from now." Kathrine said.
"Okay." Carolyn said but inside felt a warmth when she talks to Kathrine.
While in the main hall all were waiting for the next CEO to cut the ribbon of the new office. But got shocked when the three brothers cut the ribbon simultaneously and taking blessings from Kathrine who was happy that her grandsons will always stick together.
"They love each other so deeply, they blend with each other like water merges with milk, totally inseparable. Pease let them stick like that always, God." Kathrine taunts Alvaro and Carina smiling smugly to them.
Suddenly a man came from the entrance with a container from in his hand and burned himself with kerosene, the Galitzine brothers rushed towards him but couldn't save him and he died on the spot. Alec also burned his left hand badly while extinguishing fire.
