Music For My Unspoken Words…. Chase Me For Your Second Chance - Chapter 383
Cutting ties with people who consistently hurt you isn’t enough; you must also cut ties with the version of you who allowed that to continue for as long as it did. —- Cici B.
Louie and Kim look at each other and sigh, “Goodness gracious! Louie! Where have you been? We are calling you for many days and you are not answering. We need to talk and we need it right now!” Clara Chen said as she didn’t know if she was excited or angry. Louie and his friends sigh in unison, they knew that they will be on the hot seat today, especially Louie who is the main culprit of their problems. He already felt his grandmother’s anger and disappointments’ towards him. The Elders are already disappointed in him when he divorces Luna back then and now he let them down once again.
“Clara let them rest for a while, they just arrived from their journey and they still need to take a rest, just look at them. . . . They look haggard and tired. We can do the interrogation after their meal, maybe your grandson and his friends are very tired from their journey” Rafael’s cold. But the concerned voice was heard by the three men who didn’t know if they will be scared of the old lady or the very cold old man.
“Okay, let’s eat first and I am giving you three an hour to rest. The three of you must be honest with me later” Clara’s voice boomed once again in front of the house. Louie and his friends went to the dining table with Louie’s grandparents, he didn’t forget to call the driver who sends them home, he invited him to have a meal with them, but the guy declined and told him that he needs to go back to Villa 8 and he still needs to report to Duke Dimitri and Viscount Francois. “Duke Dimitri and Viscount Francois? Aren’t they owned the company that we want to have a collaboration with? Did you make friends with them Louie?” Louie’s grandfather asks. Louie smiled and nod his head, “I’ll tell you later grandfather how did we get so close for a very short time after we met. Ethan and Kim can also add some information about them” he replied.
The servants seem to know that they are coming because they’ve prepared some of their favorites like French toast, sunny side up eggs, waffles, bacon, ham, omelet, brewed coffee, and oatmeal. Louie could already sense that some of the servants are from HADES because they were talking through their eyes and their movements were just like the ones at City Wise.
The whole meal was very silent and only the sound of the cutleries was heard. Clara and Rafael are both observing the three especially their grandson, it seems that he had changed. Before he doesn’t care about his servants and only Driver Lu, Butler Lee, and his wife got his respect. When he married Sofia, those servants who are loyal to Luna resigned and didn’t even care to get their separation pay, the only thing that they would want that time was for Louie to repent his sins against their Young Madam Luna. Their sudden resignation gave a slap on Sofia’s face that time, it only means that, to the servants, no one can replace Luna as the young madam of Villa 7.
The Elder Chen couple knew that every relationship has ups and downs. The people that we love the most can also become the reason for our pain, in the case of their grandson and Luna’s relationship, it’s their grandson’s fault. And at times, when disagreements happen, the couple may feel like putting an end to their relationship. But little disagreements shouldn’t become reasons for breaking any relationship, but still, the disagreements between Louie and Luna are quite deep and there are already wounds, bruises, and scars that their grandson left in Luna’s heart, body, and soul. Their relationship is quite abusive and already affecting Luna’s well-being, little differences must be kept aside. This is also the reason why the Cheung Elders cut their ties with them as friends, they didn’t protect Luna from their grandson during the whole marriage.
When a relationship is going through a tough time and into a bumpy and rough road, the couple must try to think about the good moments that they have spent together, but in the case of Louie and Luna, they never had a good moment and it is because of Sofia. They can’t even ask them to try to remember the emotions they had for each other, for them as Louie’s grandparents, both Louie and Luna didn’t get along with each other.
As soon as they finished the meal, they all went to the study room, they even ask for water in case they be needing it. Rafael and Clara sat down together on a couch while the three men sat on separate three chairs. Clara notices the tattoo on Kim’s body. The old lady knew that Kim’s tolerance in pain is not that high and a simple pain could give him a heart attack.
“Louie, do you know that Luna is still alive? And we got some reports that the two of you had twins! Don’t you have plans of wooing Luna again or do you still need us to help you?!” Clara started questioning Louie. Louie bowed his head, for he didn’t know how to start his story.
“Old Master Chen, Madam Chen, where did you get the reports about Luna is alive?” Ethan asks the old couple as he tries to save Louie’s face in the meantime. Clara looks at Ethan in a very fierce manner. “We ask someone to look at St. Agnes Convent. St. Agnes Convent is very close to the heart of the Cheung family, they are the benefactors of that convent. When the news about Luna’s demise six years ago at the train station, we can’t and didn’t believe it, especially when the Wu sister got involved by not telling us, or the Cheung elders and even you, Louie, the place where they buried her ashes. When Samantha Wu got involved about it, we already had this hunch that she is hiding Luna and she disclosed her identity and about the twins” Rafael answered.
Ethan nods his head, “Grandpa, I met, actually, Ethan and I met Luna under the name Autumn Vallini. She is the owner of Villa 8 right now and she is different from the Luna that we knew before and she is already married and pregnant with their child. Her husband’s name was Viscount Francois Andrei Vendari and Duke Dimitri Dragomir is her adoptive brother. Luna was adopted by the Duke of City Wise that we are aiming to have collaborative work in our company. Viscount Francois has already adopted my children and they are now bearing the surname Vendari” Louie informed his grandparents in a very short but quite shocking word.
Rafael and Clara gasp as they heard the information, they can’t and will not accept it. They may accept the fact that Luna is married to some random guy, but they can’t and will not accept again the fact that the twins with Louie’s flesh and blood will not bear the surname Chen. They are the heir and heiress of their family. “NO! I will not accept it! Your children with Luna must bear our surname. They are your own flesh and blood Louie! You need to fight for it, and I will fight for our rights as their family. I don’t care if you already waive your rights, but still, we as your Elders have the rights to claim them!” Clara burst out and her voice is quite trembling. Rafael sighs deeply and closes his eyes, his sixth sense already felt that the people around Luna are very strong and they can’t offend them easily.
“Have you already talk about this to Luna? Did you try to make amends? Atty. Alberts already told us that you divorce Sofia before Christmas and you already knew everything about her schemes and dark secrets about Director Bernard and some movie producers. Louie, you know how important for us, your grandparents to see your future kids and now that we all know that you got not only one, but two to Luna, we want to see them and especially we want them to bear your name” Rafael Chen explained more about his thoughts as a great grandparent.
“Louie, you need to tell us everything, from the top, I need to know! Your grandfather and I need to know everything! We got messages and video clips about Luna, your children, you and Luna dancing. We also received five paintings, portraits of you and Luna as a couple and as a family. We need to know if the three of you went to City Wise. And where the hell is Yuan?!” Clara once again shouted for she can’t control her anger and anxiety anymore.
