Music Recommendation:- Don’t break the Heart – Tom Grennan

________________

It seemed like a dream to Marcel until he saw Reina hugging his sister with a huge smile of delight. What just happened? Marcel was in so much shock – and pain – he muted everything out. He just sat there in silence, watching everything go by.

How could she choose her? After everything that they had been through? He was her brother. He loved her. Was the human heart that easily inconsistent? How could she forget?

“I’m so happy that you made the right choice,” Reina hugged her from that position, leaning closer because of the table in between them, “I promise that you are not going to regret the decision you made today.”

“I’m not coming with you, Reina,”

“What?” Reina stiffened. Even the others by her side were stunned by her answer. They looked at her as if trying to study her and figure out the answer hidden in her head.

“Oh,” Reina finally realized it.

Chloe smiled at her gratefully, “Thank you so much for taking care of me during the time we were together. However, you also told me that no family is perfect and he is the only family I have left.” She pointed at him.

.....

That rascal!

Marcel finally released the breath he didn’t know that he had been holding in. He thought that she left him to be with her new fancy pants family. Marcel began to laugh so hard that one would think that he had lost his damn mind, but it was just out of happiness.

Chloe turned and ran to her brother, nearly knocking both of them to the ground from the momentum because Marcel was in bind and he could not brace himself from the impact. But thankfully, his weight stood the test.

“I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean to hurt you,” Chloe apologized, crying on his shoulder.

“Shh, it’s okay,” Marcel wished he could stroke her hair and comfort her properly, but then, he had to settle for words, “You’re just a kid and teenagers make lots of mistakes. Moreover, I’m not entirely blameless either, so you’re forgiven.” He kissed her on the cheek and nuzzled her.

“Aww, such a sweet reunion,” Isabella’s voice was sweet until she added, “However, can someone untie him and get him out of my sight so I can see better things.” She wanted him to leave.

However, Chloe pulled away from Marcel and turned to the defeated Reina who had a sour look, and pleaded,

“Can I still come and visit you?”

At once, everyone’s gaze rested on her and Chloe felt small under the blazing intensity of their looks. She scratched the back of her head, “I would miss you so much and I would love to see Elsa and Ella....” a blush formed on her cheeks when she said, “And Diego too.” Chloe couldn’t help but giggle silly at the end.

The room went dead silent.

“Oh boy,” Reina was the first to react. As a mother and an adult, she was the first to connect the dots and find out what was happening before the others.

“This can’t be happening,” Niklaus breathed, rubbing his temple as he could already feel a headache brewing.

“This just got interesting,” Isabella chuckled, a twinkle in her eyes and she turned to Marcel as if daring him to say something.

Marcel was utmost speechless, no word was able to leave his mouth. Is his baby sister crushing on a boy? Not only that but on Niklaus Spencer’s son? She was not even old enough to begin crushing on boys already, Marcel’s protective instinct rose. He was not going to let that happen. If only he knew that the kids were dating already.

At once, the guards came and released Marcel from the binds. As soon as he was free, Marcel took his sister into his arms and hugged her tight. They are together now. However, he quickly remembered,

“What about Winters? You took her too and pray to God that you haven’t laid a hand on her.”

“Oh, you mean the other female with you?” Isabella said, “You might have proven you had no bad intention in coming here, Marcel, but not the girl,”

Marcel lurched forward and the guards moved as well, thinking he was about to attack them. But he only told Isabella, “I was the one who ordered her to apply for the role of a babysitter. I needed her to get information on Chloe, nothing else.”

“Sure, she might have been a babysitter -”

“And a good one at that,” Niklaus cut his daughter off, the sarcasm deep in his tone. It was obvious that he was not doing well with the infiltration thing. His family was at risk here.

Isabella didn’t mind the interruption, her father had a good reason to be salty. She went on to say, “The girl has an interesting background and occupation.”

“But then, she did not bring harm to your family, did she?” He asked, his lips pressed together firmly.

“No, she didn’t.” Emerald answered, “But she’s a hacker and who knows what information she might have stolen from us while disguising herself as a worker. AInformationshe might have very much given to you.” He accused him.

“I never -”

“You disguised as Nahid, the information could only be seen on the guest list which was private,” Isabella smirked wickedly, “I’ll say that was the work of a hacker.”

Marcel sighed, running his hand through his hair. This was all his fault. He shouldn’t have gotten Winters involved in this.

Even though he knew that they weren’t going to listen to him, Marcel still went ahead to defend her, “The only information I asked was regarding Chloe and anything else that could help me bust her out, nothing else. Winters has a working code and she would never intentionally hack your secrets.”

“It’s quite unfortunate that you don’t have evidence, do you?” Niklaus’ tone was, as usual, unkind.

“You are free to leave with your sister,” Sakuzi said decisively, “But for the hacker, I’m sorry, but you can’t leave now. Until we are done with our investigation and make sure she’s innocent, she can’t go with you.”
