[A few weeks ago…]
WHEN Nikolai got home with his family after they visited his grandparents on Jeju Island, he had a serious conversation with his children.
But he didn't want them to think that he was scolding them.
Hence, instead of using the study, he invited Neoma and Nero to the garden. His children then squatted down in front of the pond while feeding the group of Koi fish there.
Yes, they had a huge and pretty Koi pond in their garden.
[It was Neoma's request to have a koi pond there.]
"Children, why did you do that?" Nikolai asked carefully. "You didn't have to give up your inheritance from your great-grandparents in exchange for the information you can use to blackmail my mother. I just need a little more time to find my mother's weakness."
