Kay sighed as she thought of that day.It had been both a good day, and a bad day.
It was the day that she could see Kyle for the last time, and it was also Patrick"s last chance at capturing Kyle. Well, capture to bring back home, that is. And shove him into Military School.
Her father had been like an absolute maniac when he couldn"t find Kyle. He had fired all the security that had been on Kyle"s trail in Country M as he had lost him - right in the middle of an interview! How incompetent can a person be, to lose a young teen boy, in plain sight?!
Patrick had been absolutely livid and the entire security detail had been revamped. Quentin had a huge headache in trying to meet the raised standards of Patrick"s, and despite the better team ... Kyle was still missing.
Patrick hadn"t been a barrel of fun at that point.
Not like he was any fun most of the time anyway.
With the added pressure of the last team being fired, the new team was taking things seriously when the premier came.
It was Kyle"s last public appearance, after all.
They had to catch him this time.
✿ Flashback ✿
Kay was all dressed up in the hotel room, waiting for her ride to the red carpet event.
When Delilah saw her, she thought that her daughter had truly grown up. It seemed like it was only yesterday that she was a little girl, trailing after her while dragging her brother along by the hand.
Now, she stood there, just on the eve of her adulthood yet looking like the Angel that she is.
There was no dress code, and since she was accompanying Kyle, she would definitely be walking the red carpet with him. She followed the "better to be overdressed than underdressed" mindset, she opted for a light champagne fitted knee-length lace c.o.c.ktail dress.
The form-fitting dress had a strapless bodice with a sweetheart neckline, and she wore a lace wrap that covered the front. However, as it was lace, one could see through it somewhat, thus gave the "peek-boo" effect.
One could see the silhouette of the strapless dress but the lace wrap covered it well enough that one would need to stare to see anything clear. It was the same for the length of the dress. The lace dress was knee length, but the inner cloth was above the knee.
All in all, it was the perfect "young adult" dress.
"Thank you, Mum, for allowing me to attend this," Kay said with a smile.
At first, she had been surprised when her Mum told her that Patrick allowed her to attend the red-carpet premiere with Kyle. Then, the real reason dawned on her. However, she didn"t blame her mother for partic.i.p.ating in it.
"Yes," Delilah answered with a smile, slight tears in her eyes, "This was something you guys had planned for ages ago, right? Kyle will be there, right?"
Kay smiled, and nodded, knowing that her mother was feeling a bit conflicted right now.
"Are you sure about this, Mum?" Kay asked gently, "Do you want to walk the red carpet with Kyle?"Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
Delilah shook her head, "No. He shouldn"t have his old mother hanging on his arm at this event. It"s best that you go. You look so beautiful."
Kay hugged her, "Thank you."
Just then, the phone rang to indicate that her ride was arriving. Giving her mom another hug, she walked out with a little sigh.
It was so obvious that their parents were going to use this opportunity to get Kyle. Then made it sound like they were granting her this golden chance to be with her brother, yet was waiting in the sidelines to pounce.
[Looks like our mother sold us out, brother]
[It"s to be expected, Kay] Kyle replied gently [You can"t expect her to be mad at Dad for a long time now, right? Also, she"s confident Dad will win, more so with his new team]
[You sure about this, though?]
[Oh come on, it"ll be fun] Kyle replied [Just make sure that you"re not caught in the cross-fire]
Kay smirked.
[Rest a.s.sured, brother. I"ll play my part well]
Meanwhile, above in the hotel room, Delilah watched as the limousine arrived. The security team that was with Kay inspected it before Kay went in. As the car pulled away, another car followed them.
Kyle wasn"t in the car, as expected. He wouldn"t have been that stupid to come into the warzone, so to speak.
Delilah took a deep breath. She truly did miss her son, even though it had only been a few months. When Patrick had told her of this plan, she didn"t oppose it.
If it worked, she would have her son back - even if it meant the clashes would continue between father and son. That was something both of them would need to sort out.
For some reason, though ... she didn"t think it would succeed.
Her instinct told her that her son had been hiding his true capabilities all this time. It was just Patrick that was too stubborn to see that.
Or perhaps he did, but he was simply ignoring it.
Only time would tell.
Inside the car, Kay was giggling, "Seriously, brother? You"re the driver now?"
She leaned forward in the car and took off his hat.
"They never look at the help," Kyle muttered, "So much for a better elite force."
"Auw, come on," Kay said, "They never expected you to be able to drive, you know."
"Still, they should check for every possibility, right?"
Kay sighed, saying, "It"s good to see you. It"s just not the same."
Kyle patted her hand and soon, they arrived.
Flashes of camera were going about as they were trying to look into the car, to see which celebrity it was that arrived.
"Ready?" Kyle said as he turned to look as his sister.
"Ready as I"ll ever be," Kay replied.
