Chapter 416 - A Surprise
Alicia gaped at Keira. She was beautiful as ever. Petite frame, beautiful long wavy hair with those beautiful curls at the end. She couldn't believe her eyes. She reached Keira's hands as she stared further into her eyes.
"Alicia," Keira hugged her. "I'm glad that you are fine. Let's go in." Keira pulled her gently and Alicia already noticed her small bump. "Yup. I'm pregnant too."
"But the funeral,"
"It's a long story," Keira said and Alicia also noticed Alessandro on the table as he spoke to someone over the phone while he's carrying Kal who just finished crying and hugging his neck.
"Mimi!" Kal exclaimed and quickly raised his head after seeing Violet.
Alicia was a little lightweight and she was greeted by everyone. Then, she smiled at Maxine who had that big round stomach. She sighed as she sat down. Terrence was busy bringing her things inside and the same as Connor. Currently, Maxine is holding baby Quinn who has that poker face, and staring at Kal with those—seemed to be sharp eyes.
"What happened?"
"Why is my baby crying?" Violet picked up Kal from Alessandro.
"Kin-Kin hates me," Kal said, crying dramatically and pointed at Quinn. Violet smiled weirdly after seeing Quinn's expression. She was so much like Johanna.
"No. She doesn't. She's adorable. Look at her."
"No. Not cute!" Kal crossed his arms and frowned at Quinn.
"Why are they fighting?" Violet asked as Maxine started laughing.
"It was hilarious," Keira said who was sitting beside Alicia. She reached the remote control and showed Violet what happened.
Kal and Quinn are just lying beside each other while watching a movie. The two seemed to be speaking at each other while Quinn was babbling some baby talks. Then, Quinn screamed in a high pitch which was unexpected and Kal argued and cried.
"Okay," Violet sighed and shook her head. "Why are you arguing with her?"
"Baddie! Baddie!" Kal shouted and Quinn frowned at him.
"Six months old baby glaring at Kal?" Connor laughed. "That's my girl."
"Baddie," Kal mumbled and hugged his mother's neck.
"Hey, hey. Quinn is just a baby. You are the big brother."
"No. No baby!" Kal furrowed at Quinn.
"This is the first time that they fight," Keira said. "I am so glad that it was filmed."
"Kal had grown so much. Quinn too." Alicia said as she admired the adorable baby. "I want to squeeze them both." She whispered.
Kal got down from his mother's arms and rushed to Alicia and hugged her.
"Okay, you are flirtatious. You want every woman to side with you." Connor rolled his eyes but Kal was just a sweet little boy. He likes everyone except specific people.
"Hey, don't say that to my baby boy." Violet scolded Connor. Then, she heads to the kitchen to eat.
"What?" Connor was very much confused about why Violet would scold him.
"Tata, pretty." Kal looked up at Alicia and smiled at her.
"Thank you, Kal."
"See that? He's charming to every girl. I swear. Victor wasn't like that." Connor said as Keira scoffed.
"You are just envious that Kal is so adorable and you are not."
Connor crossed his arms and cocked his head to his daughter.
"Look at my adorable daughter. There's no one adorable but her. Look at that adorable glare toward her big brother. Even Kal would cry."
Kal was pouting too much toward Alicia. Alicia and Keira were of course charmed by that.

Back in the Charles Empire facility. Johanna was bored to bones. But somehow, they let her do all of the sports that she wanted. That's all she could do every day. She's now practicing her fencing with Victor. But somehow, Victor's moves become a little slow because of his prosthetic leg. That is why the Charles Empire was eager to get her.
She pulled down her fencing mask and prepared.
"Prêts. Allez!"
Then, she quickly attacked Victor and pointed her epee to her brother's chest.
"This is getting boring." She told him.
"Why won't you try it with me?" Gray interrupted as she glared at him behind her mask.
Victor quickly faced Gray ready to hit him if ever he harassed Hannah Grace.
"Let's just play archery." She told Victor, completely ignoring Gray.
"Please stop ignoring me as if I am not here." Gray sighed.
"Fine," Hannah Grace groaned and looked at her brother. The two already read each other's minds. So, they take Gray with them.
They play counter-strike, using electrical guns and bodysuits. If they were hit by the fake bullets, it would bounce to their suit and send an electric shock to their body that was half as painful as the gunshot. The three of them are on different bases. Hannah Grace tied her hair and didn't bother putting on a helmet and mask.
The timer starts as they quickly change different blocks to counter each other. The first one who fired in her direction is Victor but she's fast to dodge it. But when he fired in Gray's direction the guy cursed and held his arm. That's Hannah's cue to jump off and fire Gray from above. The guy curses before Hannah could pull the trigger. She fired many times and the guy rolled in pain.
"I surrender!" He exclaimed.
"You have no fun at all." She sneered at him. "Don't play with us ever again."
"I'm sorry." He sat up and winced in pain. "Let's do it again."
"No." Hannah Grace glared at him.
"Hannah, how about we play. Just the two of us?" He smirked. "In bed? Don't you feel the same as I feel?"
"Oh, you mean sex?" She scoffed. "I am infertile. So, what's the use of sexual intercourse when I can't get pregnant? I know that you only meant that so I could conceive and let this nasty empire practice on my child like a lab rat."
Hannah Grace's dead glare was shivering enough. He looked away as he stood. He realized that she was right. The Charles Empire will use his attraction toward Hannah Grace as an opportunity to build a perfect natural killing machine.
"You still don't realize it." She scoffed and looked down at him. "They are also using you."
She jumped off and continued playing with her brother. They both enjoyed it while Grayson stayed in the corner rethinking whatever she said.
"I can use a condom," Gray shouted at Hannah Grace as the siblings didn't even get bothered by it. "We can use a condom." He shouted as the staff looked at him. He didn't even get embarrassed.
"Are you also interested in him?" Hannah Grace asked her brother.
"That doctor is feminine-looking enough." Victor shrugged.
Gray shuddered and glared at him.
"No way!"
"We can use a condom," Victor told Gray. Gray covered his chest, shuddering a little. "I like it hard."
Hannah Grace burst into laughter as the siblings went out to change their clothes.
"What are we having tonight?" She asked him. They've been spending Johanna's money for meals and didn't want to eat a single food served by the Charles Empire.
"I'm cooking," Victor told her. "What do you want to eat?" He patted her head and kissed it.
"I will eat anything you cook."
"Great."
Hannah Grace reached her room and looked around. There's not much change and she hopes that they didn't try to fix any bugs. The ventilators probably have bugs that have been interrupting her sleep. It wasn't just that. But she kept missing her baby girl and Connor. She's confident that Connor will always take care of Quinn. If she could see them just for a while, she could pay a lot for that.
She had a long bath, and when she came out, wearing her pajamas, Gray was already on the bed lifting a condom.
"Small size?" She asked.
"Large." He said proudly.
"I want XXL." She said, "You can't compare to my husband." She removed the towel around her head. "Seeing your face already ruined my date. Leave."
A soft knock on the door interrupted them, and then it opened. Alexa entered and stared at Gray.
"Doctor Gray, Victor said that you can't come in here."
"Why are you so loyal?" Gray sat up and left the condom over the bed. He walked to the door and left.
"Thanks, Alexa, dear." She smiled at the little girl. Then, Alexa left a note over the bed as she rushed out.
Hannah Grace picked it up and opened it. It wasn't well-written but it was clear enough.
They are planning to take Victor to the lab again to get an upgrade. She reached for the lighter and burned it. Then, she went to the bathroom while the paper was burning and put it on the sink. She stared at herself in the mirror. They are going to force her to do something nasty.
"You are trying to do me a favor?" She smirked. "Well," She turned on the faucet as the ashes washed away. "I will do my best."
Hannah Grace had decided. She will start working now and stop having fun. She needs to take her brother away from this.. He was used enough by them and they will pay.
