"You sick pervert get off my mother!!!"

As I gazed into Susan's pure eyes listening to her say that she would trust me with her life. Susan suddenly stood on her toes and kissed me on my lips, sending a jolt throughout my body. My eyes widened at Susan's sudden aggression, it took a while for me to pull myself together. However, before I could show Susan what a real kiss felt like we heard Corey rush toward us yelling, "You sick pervert get off my mother!!!"

Susan immediately pulled out of the kiss and retreated. As for me, seeing a chance, I balled my fist and punched the speeding Corey in her face mercilessly, sending her body flying back into the cabin area. Corey only came to a stop after cras.h.i.+ng into the nearby furniture.

"Corey!!!" Susan screamed seeing Corey being punched in the face and rushed toward her to check on her while throwing a look at me as if asking, 'Was that necessary?'

"What? If you see someone attacking you attack back in self-defense. That's just the basic reflex. Anybody in my place would do that," I defended myself with a satisfied smile pasted on my face.

Susan shook her head at my explanation saying, "Tell that to the grin on your face."

"..." I spread my hands and shook my head expressing my innocence implying I had no idea about the grin that Susan spoke of. Having punched Corey in the face I felt great as a lot of grievances I was feeling toward her faded.

Corey wanted to get back on her feet and rush back and return the boy his punch but seeing Susan run towards her in distress, she changed her plan and lay on the floor pretending to be injured. As Susan neared Corey groaned as if she was in a lot of pain while she stumbled trying to get back on her feet, "Ah."

"Corey, don't push yourself, let me help you," The thought that Corey may be exaggerating her injury did not cross Susan as she was too embarra.s.sed to think that having been caught by Corey in the forbidden act of kissing her young boss.

Soon the floater made it to the Fine Gold airstrip and then Corey, Susan, and I headed to the warehouse in the transportation arranged by the Fine Gold staff. During this period the atmosphere surrounding me and Susan was awkward as neither of us was willing to talk about the kiss that Susan initiated. Especially with Corey by our side.

"At least he did not deny his relations.h.i.+p with you," Colleen said trying to console her granddaughter.

"What if grandpa were to do something like this to you?" Anna asked her grandma.

"He won't," Colleen answered without even giving it a thought showing just how much she trusted her husband. And then added, "That boy is barely an adult, if you try to push him into a commitment then he will only resist. This is why they say age difference matters."

"You are wrong, age difference is not the matter here. It's trust, he has huge trust issues. I thought he had gotten over them after he returned from his visit to the sun blossom city but it appears he trusts her more than me," Anna did not let what she saw and heard cloud her judgment and reached a sane conclusion.

"It may be because they have more in common than you and the boy. After all, not everyone can be related to the life of a royal child. Back in the day because of this, even I misunderstood your grandpa when he approached me," Colleen spoke from her experience.

"So how did grandpa convenience you to give him a chance?" Anna asked in antic.i.p.ation that maybe her grandma had the solution to her problems.

"Your grandpa should be the best person to answer this question, however since you asked me, I would say he gave it time.

After expressing his feelings for me your grandpa made sure he was always there for me while making sure not to step into my personal s.p.a.ce. Especially my pride. In time my opinion of your grandpa changed and then after many fortunate events I started to understand your grandpa's feelings for me which led to me feeling the same way for him," Colleen reminisced her past as she narrated it briefly to her granddaughter.

"What if during this time someone else were to—" Colleen suddenly pulled Anna into her embrace interrupting Anna by whispering to her, "That is the risk you will have to take, baby girl."

Anna warped her arms around her grandma and lay in her embrace enjoying her warmth in peace and silence. n.o.body knew what she was thinking.

Arriving at the warehouse we walked on Aba and Agatha entertaining unknown guests. Seeing us Aba walked towards me and said, "They say they have a business to talk with you. It seems they tried to meet with you at sun blossom city but learned that you had left the city so they came to the warehouse searching for you. I was about to send them on their way but since you are here, you handle it."

"Thank you, Aba," Susan thanked Aba for tending to the customers in her absence and headed to the guest to talk to them and enquire what their visit was about.

"What is it?" unable to ignore Aba's stare I finally asked her what she wanted.

"You know, Susan would cry herself to sleep thinking you had died. Don't let her go through something like that ever again," Aba spoke in concern for Susan. This was surprising, I wondered if my fake death had brought Susan and Aba close.

"Okay, I will keep that in mind."
