Lucas loves all the gifts his parents have given him.
In the original story, Eugene has given the original Lucas technological stuff and as for Luna she didn't even know his birthday so don't even mention a gift.
From this, he could understand his action has already quite different effects and result.
So he just had to ensure that he would bring positive changes to their life and not make a mess like in the novel.
Only Olivia has given both original and him the same gift which was an heirloom.
Original Lucas kept it safely and adore it very much and up to where he read the novel it has some effect or something inside it but he don't know what so now Lucas had to figure it out himself.
Lucas asked his mom to pierce his ear and Olivia gladly pierce it with the help of a piercing machine kept at home.
Then Lucas put on the blue earpiece on his right ear.
It suited him quite a lot, it brings out the shine of the gold in his hazel eyes.
Lucas kept the books Eugene brought him, in his favourite corner of his study and as for Luna's gift he asked Butler Robin to frame it and put it in his family's photo special wall.
After sorting out his gift, Lucas had a family lunch with his parents.
After lunch, they would go to his grandparents home for a birthday party.
In the name, it is a party but you could say it is a kind of a family meeting to discuss the duties of a firstborn child of the Evans family.
Mostly it would be held between concerned parties, however, Maria and her family would also be present there as his grandparents have always included her in everything and provided her with equal opportunity as his dad except for the position of the head as she had married and have her own family to lead.
Marcus would have made her the head of the family if she was firstborn but since she was 2 years younger, it was impossible.
Nonetheless, she was given everything or even more when she was of the age and when she got married but even that couldn't satiate her and even made her more greedy.
She wants everything and erases the name, Evans.
Lucas just doesn't understand her need to destroy her own family.
Lucas sighs, thinking about his lunatic aunt is the last thing he wants to do on his birthday but to keep his family safe he had to do it.
Since it was Lucas birthday, Eugene has taken a day off to spend a day with his family.
They chill at home and play some games then get ready to visit his grandparents.
Lucas and his family arrive just before the mentioned time which was 6 pm.
The house or should we say villa has a European style, it has a long drive-through and the side of it has many trees and flowers which gives a beautiful view.
The villa was of two-story from the outside it may look small but inside it was huge and have at least 22 rooms including a kitchen and living room.
This villa lies in one of the best places in the A country called Spirit villa side.
This Villa side has many retired military officers or retired forces of the country.
Many of Marcus and Reena's friends live near them so they have a fulfiling life here.
Even Adrian and Hayden grandparent's live in this villa side but in the other two directions.
Lucas always visits his grandparents and spends quite a lot of his vacation here.
Whenever Lucas comes to live here Adrian and Hayden also visit their grandparents which eventually end up them spending their vacation together.
Lucas quickly runs out of the car and rushes towards the door to ring a bell as Eugene parked the car.
However, before he could ring it, Butler opens the door.
Lucas was confused and surprised.
" I saw young master Eugene park through the window while I was waiting for your arrival," Butler answered when he saw Lucas surprised.
" Oh, thanks," Lucas politely thank the butler then quickly walk inside the home.
" Grandpa, grandma, I am home," Lucas excitedly announce his arrival then lunched himself toward his grandpa.
Marcus laughs and catches his naughty grandchild perfectly.
" You naughty child when will you grow up and act like an adult huh," Marcus playfully scold Lucas and heartily laughing ruffled his hair.
" Only hugs for your grandpa did you not love your grandma anymore," Reena looking pitifully asked her Lucas.
" Oh, grandma everyone knows you are my darling, it's just if I first greet grandpa then I would spend the rest of my time with you so let me finish here then all my time is for you," Lucas cleverly coax his grandma.
Reena was happy.
" So that's your plan, you are stealing my wife huh brat," Marcus pinches Lucas's face.
"hehe," Lucas sheepishly laugh and run towards Reena to hide from Marcus.
" Grandpa I am not stealing your wife, it's the grandma who loves me more than she loves you so she is willing," Lucas righteously said while sitting in Reena's lap and looking at her for confirmation.
Reena nod in approval, " It's true Marcus, I love him more than you."
Lucas proudly looks at his grandpa then wriggle his eyebrows at him.
Marcus laugh and shook his head helplessly at his grandson antics.
Eugene and Olivia enter with Luna with them only to see their son and parents laughing.
They also joined them in their conversation.
After a while, Maria and her family also arrived for dinner.
Maria brought both of her children George and joey alongside her husband Timothy.
George is only 5 days younger than him as for joey she is now 3 years old.
After they spent some time greeting and sharing their recent events, they had dinner.
Only after they finished their dinner, they wished Lucas.
One by one, everybody handed him a gift.
From technical stuff, clothes, property to jewellery, Lucas got a handful of gifts.
Marcus and Reena gives him some of their personal property which made Maria see red.
" Mom isn't too small for such expensive gifts, It may spoil him," Maria complain but it only sounds like a concern for the younger generation.
" Yes grandma, I don't want this, you can take it and give me when of the age and it's not as if I could do anything from this, I only need your blessings," Lucas readily agrees with his aunt despite knowing her thoughts.
Lucas really didn't need these things and has of no use so he just return the property deed to Reena.
However, Marcus and Reena took it and silently and sternly hand it back to Lucas.
They know how virtuous and good their grandson is, he has never demanded anything from them and was always an obedient child.
He has no greed and he just wants to live worry-free life and they also know it is the most difficult to live like that especially because he is the heir of Evans so they need to give him some responsibility and duties to make him a little ambitious and vigilant.
" This is given to you by us so you should respect our decision, I just hope you could do something out of this in recent years," Marcus sternly said and ended the discussion.
The property given to Lucas was in the centre of the capital city and it was an empty building which market price is very high.
Lucas solemnly nodded and promised himself, he would do something out of it.
Maria was dissatisfied but she couldn't do anything against her father's decision.
" Lucas in a few days you would be sent for training, you should be ready for it and be mentally prepared, this time you could only talk to your parents once a month if you are lucky enough to finish your given task," Marcus solemnly explained the main point of a tonight dinner plan.
" And you don't have to bring anything with yourself, all the things would be already arranged for you there," Marcus further explain.
" Grandpa, could I bring my pen and watch with me and some books," Lucas asked with his signature puppy face which is only reserved for her grandparents whenever he wants something from them.
" No, however, if you finish your given task early, you could get rewards where you could ask for some of your personal things," Marcus outrightly denied nonetheless he suggest some idea where he could bring things.
Lucas sadly nodded in understanding.
After all, he is going for training so it would definitely be difficult.
" Umm, dad could George also join training with Lucas, he would be helpful to Lucas" Maria expectantly asked.
" No, George surname is Jones, not Evans and Lucas is going there to train not to play around," how could Marcus not know her thought, he has spoiled her and fulfilled all her demands but this is the matter of Evans family matter so he won't let her be unreasonable.
He had given her everything she has right of as for her children he would help her but now she is no more Evan and has no right to family property and decision.
" But dad George is also your grandson like Lucas so why can't he go with Lucas," Maria finally lost it when her father who indulge her since her childhood refuse to fulfil her these small wishes.
"You, yourself know how unreasonable you are, Lucas will now be formally trained to be the HEIR OF EVANS, not JONES so if you want to train George go to his paternal house," Marcus sternly scold Maria.
" Fine then," saying that she leaves with her family.
In all this discussion Timothy didn't utter a word, he just let his wife take the lead.
As for George and Joey, they just further hate Lucas and his family for making their mom and grandparents fight.
And they felt their grandparents didn't love them anymore as they shower most of their love to Lucas and Luna.
Eugene and Olivia just let Marcus handle the situation as it was his duty to handle his children not theirs and they already have a rocky relationship with Maria due to Samaya's situation.
Reema was sad but her husband was right so she didn't say anything.
Only Luna was oblivious and was playing with the dolls by herself on the carpet.
Creation is hard, cheer me up!
