Chapter 35: Mr. and Mrs. Lopez,
* * *
It's only been a couple of hours since the public statement was released by the Mo Empire and it has already become a widely talked issue in the country. This is because people were interested in these kinds of issues, furthermore, Mo Laotian is a very important figure in the business industry and even to the country's economy. His features were rather unknown to the public but his name was the talk in most newspapers, magazines and even TV. Many people, especially from wealthy families, are interested in his personal life that's why this news came out viral.
Moreover, people like gossips. The young woman from other socialites families made a huge uproar. The news would mean they still have the chance to pursue Mo Laotian, plus they would be eliminating one candidate who they thought had a bigger chance than them.
Meanwhile, in his apartment, Paul hugged Daniella as she cried.
" Babe, You know it wasn't me. I was framed. My account was hacked and I have nothing to do with it. " Daniella cried. Paul continued to listen while he calmed Daniella down. Yesterday when the scandal was released about Daniella and Mo Laotian, Daniella didn't explain anything and didn't even accept his calls but now, she's crying on his arms. Paul couldn't stop suspecting but he also couldn't resist Daniella. It hurt him seeing the love of his life is in such a mess.
" Why do you have that photo? " Paul asked. He also doesn't believe Daniella could do something so vulgar and shameless, she is the sweetest and most innocent girl he ever met.
" I-I don't know who sent it to me. Someone blackmailed me and wanted to break us... I already told you I don't love Mo Laotian. The person behind this wants us to break up. M-maybe that person wants you and wants to ruin me. " Daniella said between her sobs. Deep inside her mind, she couldn't stop cursing, Daniel's baby had died. If Laotian thought that that bastard was his he wouldn't have the energy to care about a small scandal. He would also have to consider the friendship between his father and her grandfather. Unless Mo Laotian doesn't care or it has something to do with Daniel again!? Daniella curses Daniel's name repeatedly on her mind, now that her plan didn't work she has to come up with another plan.
" That's... No one would want to compete with you unless the person is really confident that they can beat the Sullens. " Paul thought while comforting Daniella. The Sullen's have a great reputation and contributed a lot to the country's economy for the past hundred years. The Sullen's have a great foundation compare to other socialite families. In terms of status, only a few families could beat Daniella and even those families would still have to think twice before offending the Sullens but now, the Mo Empire directly denied the Sullens and their friendship just because of a simple misunderstanding that could have been solved privately.
" I-I don't know. I don't have enemies. The only person who has a grudge towards me is. . . " Daniella paused and acted like she was thinking. Paul frowned and waited for her to talk.
" D-Daniel. . . B-but I know he wouldn't do this to me even if he hated me. " Daniella mumbled acting confused at what she just thought. Paul was shocked after hearing Daniella's conclusion. He doesn't want to believe but when he broke up with Daniel that day, Daniel was indeed so angry. He knew Daniel's personality the most but maybe their break up changed him?
After seeing Daniella looking like a mess, Paul was filled with anger. He was furious. If it was truly Daniel who did this and caused the Mo Empire to humiliate Daniella then he would have to make him pay for it. Daniella is still Daniel's twin, related by blood. How can he do this to his sister!?
After calming Daniella and lull her to sleep, Paul took his phone and dialed Daniel's number.
At the same time. Daniel and Laotian just came back and now preparing in the room changing their clothes into formal casual attire. In the middle of changing Daniel's phone rang across the room. Afraid that it would wake Baby Minmin up after he just fed him his dinner, Daniel accepted the call without looking at the caller ID thinking that it might be his adoptive parents.
" Mommy, are you--" Daniel talked but his words were stopped when a familiar voice growl at him.
" Was it you? " Paul asked impatiently, he couldn't stop the boiling anger inside him. Just thinking how the Omega hurt Daniella made him mad. How could he do something like that!?
" Was it you who framed Daniella!? " Paul asked again. Although he was asking, he sounded like he was accusing Daniel already.
" Excuse me!? What are you talking about? " Daniel frowned and asked back? Who was framing who again? Was there even anyone who can frame Daniella?
" Daniella is a mess right now. She doesn't have enemies aside from you. If I discover it was you who did this to her. I will be going to make you pay for it. I know what you are planning, even if I break up with her, I won't get back to you. " Paul roared and immediately hang up. Daniel was so confused, he was clueless about the whole situation. He blinks a couple of times staring at his mobile phone in disbelief.
Finally, Daniel frowned thinking what might have happened causing Paul to be so angry. From the sounds of it, Daniella must have done something again and then failed so she blamed it to him. It was always like that since they were younger. Daniella would make Daniel take the blame and at the end of the day, he was the one who turns out bad.
After thinking, Daniel decided to google about Daniella Sullen and she was indeed in a big mess.
Daniel scanned through a whole article and he immediately understood what had happened. Putting his phone down, Daniel walked to the bathroom where Laotian was still preparing.
" Is there something you weren't telling me? " Daniel pouted hugging the Alpha from the side. Laotian thought for a second and then hugged Daniel back.
" I was afraid you'll be upset if you knew. " Laotian explained and now lifted Daniel to sit on the available space beside the sink.
" She's targeting you Laotian. " Daniel said with a gentle and worried voice. Daniella is beautiful and smart, she gets everything she wants easily. She is also very good with scheming and Laotian might fall for it. Daniel couldn't stop thinking that there might be a time when Laotian would leave him for Daniella as Paul did.
Seeing Daniel's saddened expression, Laotian lifted his chin and claimed those soft and red lips giving Daniel a passionate kiss that took his breath away.
" What are you thinking? You are my wife and the mother of my son. I won't do something that would break our family apart or else Elder Sullen would sell his soul just to avenge you. " Laotian slightly pinch Daniel's nose. He would be a fool if he exchanges a diamond with a piece of bronze.
" *chuckles* I'll make sure you'll regret it if you leave me. " Daniel pouted pinching Laotian side earning an ouch from the Alpha.
" I won't leave you. You're the love of my life. No one can replace you. " Laotian whispered giving Daniel soft kisses on his collar bone. Daniel closed his eyes as his hand slide through Laotian's soft hair while feeling the light feathery kisses against his skin.
" Do you think we have time? " Laotian asked after sucking on Daniel's skin leaving a huge red mark.
" hmmm, I don't think so. " Daniel replied with hazy eyes.
" Okay, later then. " Laotian said regretfully kissing Daniel on his forehead before lifting the Omega to get him down. Daniel chuckled again nodding subconsciously not really expecting they would continue later.
" How did you know? " Laotian asked leaning his back on the sink and then pulling Daniel close to him.
" Paul called me and accused me of framing Daniella. " Daniel explained after being silent for a couple of seconds. Hearing Daniel's reply, killing, and evil intent flashed into Laotian's eyes. It was only a couple of second but it was there.
" Are you okay? " Laotian asked in a slightly deeper voice.
" Yeah, I was just confused but it didn't affect me at all. " Daniel replied honestly. He then pulled away from the Alpha and grab the navy blue coat and gave it to Laotian.
" Hmm, Don't mind those people. " Laotian hummed while letting the Omega button his suit. While the two were talking, a knock on the door stopped them.
" Masters, Madam asked you to come down. The visitors have arrived. " A maid informed after knocking. Daniel immediately pulled away from Laotian excited to see his parents again after more than 4 years.
" Laotian, bring Minmin down okay!? I'll greet mommy and daddy. " Daniel excitedly and rushed out not even waiting for the Alpha to respond. Laotian shake his head helplessly before walking towards Baby Minmin who's now awake.
" Mommy ignored both of us. " Laotian complained to his son who's now awake after his short nap before slowly lifting the baby into his arms. They headed downstairs as well following Daniel who rushed out.
Daniel runs down to the stairs with teary eyes after seeing his parents again. Mr. And Mrs. Lopez were also very excited when they saw their son running towards them.
" Mommy! Daddy! " Daniel called already crying and immediately hugs those familiar arms.
" My baby! " Mrs. Lopez also cried hugging her son tightly. Mr. Lopez also joined the hug. Elder Mo and Mrs. Mo enjoyed watching the heartwarming scene happening in front of them.
" Mommy! Daddy! I missed you so much. I'm sorry. I'm really really sorry. " Daniel cried harder.
" shhh. It wasn't your fault baby. Mommy and Daddy forgive you. Don't cry, this is a happy event. " Mrs. Lopez lull Daniel.
" Mommy, Daddy, I have something to tell you. " After slightly calming down Daniel pulled away from the hug and wiped his tears. Hearing Laotian's footsteps, Daniel immediately turns around meeting the Alpha and his son. Daniel took Minmin into his arms before walking back to her parents.
Mr. And Mrs. Lopez when they arrived at the Mo's estate, they first thought it was the Sullen's. They have never been at the Sullens and although Elder Sullen invited them before, they didn't come because they were afraid they would only embarrass Daniel. They only owned a small furniture company. Although business was running smoothly, they also didn't have major projects. That's why for the past years, Mr. Lopez was working very hard to gain a contract with a big company. Hoping that maybe if he could get a huge contract, Daniel would come back to them. Earlier, he was supposed to have a proposal discussion with a huge company but it suddenly got canceled and reschedule next month. Although very disappointed, he was still very thankful that he still wasn't rejected as this project was very competitive. If he could somehow get this project, this would open a path for the company.
The couple's eyes followed Daniel and when they saw Mo Laotian they couldn't help but admire the Alpha. They were already quite amazed by Elder Mo and Mrs. Mo. After seeing Laotian and how Daniel was acting and the baby, Mrs. Lopez started to get worried.
" Mommy, Daddy, this is Laotian my husband and our son Luangmin. I'm sorry for not telling you this. " after Daniel introduce Laotian, the Alpha walked towards his mother-in-law and father-in-law.
" Good evening. I'm sorry for the late introduction and for not asking permission to marry your son. I am Mo Laotian, I love your son dearly I hope for your support. " Laotian said professionally as if talking to some clients and investors. He sounded so subtle.
After hearing what the Alpha had said, Mrs. Lopez suddenly blacked out causing a commotion. Mrs. Lopez didn't expect that after more than 4 years, he would see his son suddenly getting married and even had a son at the age of 19.
" Oh my God! Mommy! " Daniel screams, stunned. Thankfully Mr. Lopez caught his wife.
" Quickly to the living room. " Mrs. Mo suggested and asks one of the maids to get a glass of water. Daniel quickly lay Minmin on a crib before running to his mother. Laotian on the other hand was expressionless, he was already expecting this would happen. Unlike his parents who have been longing for a grandson, Mr. And Mrs. Lopez still see Daniel as a teenager. Daniel hasn't even turned 20 yet so this is to be expected of a reaction from a parent.
