Chương 335: Chapter 335
"You two are like hormonal teenagers on prom night." Ian said, smiling as they walked into the smaller dining room for late night drinks.
"Oh stop it, prude. This new grown up you is absolutely lame." Fi said, sitting down and slamming her vodka. Ian and Dylan had started a production company and brand new record label based out of London and LA. It was blowing up and they were highly sought after to work with. Their band had been put on the back burner after Pearl had married Bash and began her royal life. John was now a celebrity manager and Blake had started a new band. Iris was still very much Pearl's assistant and Tony had quit the entertainment world all together and started his own restaurant chain. Their lives were all perfectly in place and Pearl felt fortunate to have such an amazing family.
"Bash, I gotta hand it to you, three babies and still not afraid to keep at it." Auggie said, smiling.
"Oh, believe me, I want more. And nothing, not even triplets, would make me want to pry myself away from her." Sebastian said, sipping his bourbon and smiling at Pearl. He was so proud to be with her, it was sometimes difficult for her to accept.
"So, what was that all about with the VP in there?" Maggie whispered to Pearl.
"I will fill you in. Can we have lunch tomorrow?" Pearl asked.
"Of course." Maggie said.
"So, I asked you all to hang out after the ball to chat here with us, not just because you are our family but because we need to discuss something." Sebastian said.
"Well, Bash. Come on with it then." Louis said. Sebastian's little brother was a bit of a vagabond, prior to all that had happened with Erik and Edward but now that his brother was king, he had shown much maturity and his presence was more common in London. He had even taken up residence at Kensington with Auggie and Maggie.
"Erik has been granted a new trial on appeal. Apparently, there were issues with his defense and he has also agreed to implicate his mother in the murder of his biological father which could buy him an earlier release." Sebastian said. A hush fell over the room. "He is being released tomorrow until the negations are completed and a possible new trial date occurs."
Auggie looked down and Maggie put her arm around him. "Yes. We got the call this morning." Auggie said.
"What does that mean for Pearl? For you? For us?" Fi asked.
"I can assure you that security is high and more people have been added to watch over you all." Sebastian said. "He will be closely monitored and if he is smart, he won't come anywhere near us, causing him to jeopardize his chances at freedom." He said. "I can assure you, I will not let anything happen to my family."
Dylan nodded and looked at Pearl. "WE won't let anything to happen to our family." Dylan said.
Sebastian nodded.
After their drinks and more discussion, Pearl and Sebastian got ready for bed.
"I'm scared." Pearl said, looking at him.
"I know." Sebastian said, pulling her into his arms. "And I want to be honest with, and you alone. He may want to avoid us because he wants his freedom. But I know him, well. And he also may only want... revenge."
