It was already Saturday morning. Tina Katz was already up from bed. She brushed her teeth and took her bath.She wore a light blue loose trouser with a pink shirt and went out from her bedroom, heading straight to her kitchen where she made herself scrambled eggs with pancakes."Mmm…. It looks so good!. I bet it'd taste really delicious in my mouth". She took the plates of food to the dining room, after which she placed them on the table. Before helping herself with one of the seats surrounding the table.Tina ate to her satisfaction until the three plates of food were empty. She took the plates straight to the dishwasher and washed them before returning to the living room."Ooo. Let's see what's going on today".Tina suddenly said. She switched on the tv and collected the remote from the sofa where she later settled down. As she was about to change the channel, the thought about Mateo, whom she left all by himself yesterday came to her mind. 'Wait. I wonder what happened to him. Did
'Why is she not answering the door!?. Is she toying with me or what now?!'. Bella wondered. Eventually, since Tina didn't answer the door, Bella had to stop what she was busy doing to face the reality in front of her. "I think something is up. Perhaps we should come again another time". After Bella had said to the bodyguards, she turned around immediately to leave when one of the bodyguards 'Thomas' with the most muscular body roughly grabbed her by her shirt. With widened and scared eyes, Bella exclaimed. "What do you think you're doing?. I'm not one of your enemies, so why disrespect me by treating me this way?!". "I won't have you waste my Boss's time like this. Whatever you must do, we three aren't leaving here unless we take our boss's bride to him". Thomas declared. His voice tone, including his facial expression, was harsh and serious."But but. Wait, you're not the Boss of me". Bella announced upon her realisation."So get out of my way!. How dare you speak to me like th
"A visitor you say?". Jake asked the guard. "Yes". The guard replied to Jake's question before leaving for outside. Because Jake was suspicious of the sudden visitor, he wasn't sure whether to let Tyler, Taylor and Tessa follow him outside to check. The reason he didn't want to let the kids go outside with him was because only those familiar with the Cassano family were recognised by the guards and allowed access into the Mansion. "Stay here". Jake said to Tyler, Taylor and Tessa. He walked out of the living room, heading outside. He turned behind him to shut the door but it almost hit Tyler. They didn't listen to him and still followed him outside. "Don't be stubborn you kids. Go back inside and wait for me. I said I'd be back soon. Just give me some minutes to confirm who the person is first". "Safety comes first". Jake added before leaving them. Seeing that Jake already left, Tyler came up with a suggestion and said to Taylor and Tessa. "We should follow after h
The distance from the front main gate to the main mansion was farther than Tina imagined. Though eventually, they arrived. Tessa took Tina inside. Straight to Mateo's room according to Tina's demand. "Is this his room?". Tina questioned Tessa as they halted in front of a door. "Uh-mmm. It is". Tessa replied and nodded her head in confirmation. 'Here goes nothing then'. Tina thought. She opened the door without bothering knocking at the door to alarm the person inside. It wasn't even up to 3 seconds that Tina and Tessa entered Mateo's room, he said. "Not now again Mom. I told you I have no appetite to eat anything". 'Huh. Did he just say Mom? This dude'. Tina thought. She walked towards the bed, where Mateo was lying front down. He didn't even have an idea that it wasn't his Mother that came in since he didn't mind staring at the door pathway. Tina was already standing beside Mateo's bed, waiting for him to finally stare at her, but he avoided staring at her like
Tessa finally explained the plan to Mateo since he was extremely curious about it and wouldn't let them leave for outside to meet up with Tina. "What?! How could you guys do this to me? She's the worst lady there is. Even if you guys planned to help me out with my problem, you could have thought of another lady other than Tina". Mateo was startled and exclaimed in disbelief after listening to the plan. He was pacing back and forth with his mind totally unsettled and troubled. "I guess you're right, big brother Mateo". Tyler supported Mateo because the angered face of Tina was no joke at all. Unlike Tyler, Tessa was still persistent to go ahead with the plan. She just had the feeling that Tina was the best lady needed to pull off the plan. "Less talking you kiddos. Aren't you guys supposed to follow the young lady and prevent her from leaving?". Jake questioned. He was tired of standing and listening to them talking as he was already used to actions instead of words. "You're
Tina became super stiff and quiet for a while after she heard what Tessa had announced. To be sure that she heard right, she said to Tessa. "Can you repeat what you just said?". "Of course, lady Tina. I said "could you please marry my big brother Mateo?". Tessa repeated what she said for the second time, and at this moment, Tina wished she could vanish from this awkward situation. "Stop kidding, Tessa. I know you're only joking with Tina". Mateo, who was sweating, said. Tessa raised her brows at Mateo and said to him, "I'm not kidding, big brother Mateo. And I'm sure you know that". "I think we all should go to my room before grandma Deborah hears our conversation. I mean, it's not only my room since it belongs to my brothers and I. Anyways, we should go there". Tessa added. Tina quickly raised her right hand up in the air and was staring at Tessa. "Quick question". Tina said. "Can I go home now?". "Of course not". Tessa replied. She giggled and grabbed onto Mateo and Tina'
It has been a minute since Tessa left the room. Tina was still squatting when she recollected herself. She stood up, wrapped her hands on her chest while tapping her feet continuously on the ground. She turned to face Mateo and was glaring at him angrily as if he was the one at fault. Technically, Tina believes that all that happened was Mateo's fault, even though it was mainly her fault for falling for Tessa's smart trick. "You! The things you've caused in my life ever since I first met you, are most likely disasters!". Tina snapped at Mateo. Mateo flinched suddenly, hearing Tina's loud voice speak. He hated to admit this, but he felt his legs weakened seeing this other side of Tina. He hasn't seen her this pissed off before. With the way Tina was still glaring at Mateo, he lost his cool and got angry at her. "Hey, you too! All you do is frustrate me so much ever since I met you!". Mateo's voice was cold and loud as he yelled at Tina. This side of Mateo came as a surprise to Ti
Tessa chuckled before she replied to Taylor, "Of course I'm serious, brother. I played a trick on lady Tina, and she actually fell for it". "What kind of trick did you play on Tina Katz that made her agree to the marriage?". Jake demanded to know from Tessa. He closed his laptop and put it aside on the three legged table close to him. "Let's just say, I cried and asked her to promise to do only one thing for me. And of course, who could decline a little kid's tears? So she agreed to the promise. But it turns out the promise was for her to agree to marry big brother Mateo temporarily". "So big Uncle Jake, will you help out and provide a contract marriage document? I want lady Tina to sign it. The sooner the better". Tessa added and was in a hurry to get things done quickly since she felt that a lot of time was wasted because of their conversation. Jake sighed heavily. He stood up and patted Tessa's head and said, "Fine. I'll have a lawyer bring the documents here in 15 minutes"
