"Hey, Leon," Anna called out Leon"s name. "Thank you for helping us out. If it weren"t for you, none of this would have happened so smoothly."Anna now thinks that it"s good that they got Leon involved because if she or her brother went off and talked to Isaiah, face to face, then hearing about their uncle"s plans, Anna thinks that she and Aaron won"t be able to control themselves and killed Isaiah and Ilana right at that moment.
"Anna, saying thank you to me is not enough! I need more than that!" Leon pouted like a little kid. He was feeling upset with the twins earlier, but after what happened with Isaiah and Ilana, Leon thinks the same way as Anna.
It"s a good thing that they got him involved. Even though the twins show that they are calm and rational all the time, he thinks that the twins cannot control their anger if either of them is on the same spot he was in earlier.
He would understand if the twins did kill those pairs out of their anger. Mary Coleman is their only mother, and she raised them without Arion on their life for so many years. If their mother suddenly disappears from their life it could turn out very badly for the twins and to those who surround them.
"The twins will most likely turn their anger to everyone and especially to James. It would very bad if something happens to their mother." Leon inwardly said.
"Then is there anything you want us to do for you?" Aaron asked. He is very thankful for everything that Leon has done for him and his sister. When he first met Leon, he is actually didn"t like Leon right away.
His opinion about Leon back then is not a good one, but now, as he starting to get to know a bit better. He feels guilty for thinking like that about him.
Leon felt the sincerity on the twins" tone of voice and smile at them warmly. "Well, you guys can start giving me a proper break! And also tell your father that I need a rest!" If the twins were the one to tell Arion that he is going to take a break from all the mission he is giving to him, then he will listen to the twins
"Big brother was right! The best thing that I could do while working under Arion Coleman, I should be friends with his kids. That way I could be spared!" Leon inwardly cried at the relations.h.i.+p he has with the twins.
He is so thankful that he did not forget about the advice his big brother told him before.
"Is that all?" Anna asked. She thinks that Leon"s request is too simple. If she was him, she wouldn"t be satisfied with such a simple request. Anna knows that she could make her father let Leon take a break and it wouldn"t be much of a problem. But the only problem is that she wants Leon to ask for more.
He did so much for her and her brother, and yet, that is the only thing he could ask from them?
"Anna," Leon puts his hands in both of Anna"s shoulder. "You have no idea what it is like to work under your father"s commands. Taking a break, away from his commands for a little while is the biggest gift that you and your brother could have ever given to me." It may sound exaggerated, but Leon is telling them the truth about what he feels right now.

"In just a day, you two already got this evidence against your uncle James. You guys sure work fast." Nathalia actually thought that it would take the twins for at least two days to get their hands on piece evidence against their uncle. But obviously, it only took them a day to complete their first step towards their goal.
"To be honest, I would like to give all the credits to Leon. He did so much for me." Anna wouldn"t like to take credit for something she has not contributed much. Most of the work was done by Leon last night.
"If it weren"t for him, blood would have been spilled last night." If Leon wasn"t present last night, Aaron could have killed Isaiah and Ilana. And if that happened, then it would be a problem for both him and his sister.
They needed Isaiah for their last step on taking down their uncle. Despite having the urge to kill the father and daughter pair, Aaron is forcing himself to stay calm and kept reminding himself that he will have his chance to make them pay for plotting against his family.
"So what are two gonna do now?" Josh asked curiously. "Your father gave you guys three days to have it your way on taking down your uncle. You two already got the evidence, and still have today and tomorrow to spare your days." With the evidence that twins have on their hands, they could easily go and confront their grandfather about their uncle James" plot right away. They both don"t have to use all of their three days to waiting around doing nothing.
"My dear sister and I decided not to expose our uncle today because we want this to be Ilana"s day." A smile appeared in Aaron"s face, but that smile only made Josh have gooseb.u.mps. Whenever that smile appears, bad news always happens to those people Aaron has targeted.
"Oh, please do tell us what you and Anna gonna do to her," Zen spoke. He"s very intrigued about what kind of punishment the twins will give to Ilana. To him, it is always fun to watch the twins do their own things especially when it comes to their prey.
"It"s simple really, but it will only work if our beautiful Nathalia over here will be willing to help out?" Aaron knows that it"s news to Nathalia, but for some reason, he got this confidence that Nathalia will still agree to help out without even questioning him why didn"t he told her about this much earlier. With that thought in his mind, he feels happy.
Without having seconds thoughts, Nathalia immediately replied. "Sure! I will gladly help you. But I have to know, what kind of role am I playing?"
"You will know when the time comes."

"Are you being serious right now? Why am I playing this character of a loving girlfriend to you?" Currently, it"s just Nathalia and Aaron together at the cafeteria, while the other three are watching secretly.
"Come on. Don"t be such a grumpy woman now. You agreed to take part in this." While they both are having this conversation, they are also acting as a very affectionate couple in front of the students.
Truthfully, Aaron is actually enjoying this moment he is having with Nathalia. If he could, he would like it to last longer.
"Yeah, but I didn"t expect this. Besides, how can you be so sure that this will end very badly for Ilana?" Aaron only has given her the detail of what she should do, but he never told her how this is all gonna affect Ilana negatively.
"Well, if you really wanna know, then I"ll tell you." As Aaron is saying this, he gently caresses Ilana"s hair because of that, Nathalia"s face turned red and her red face only made Aaron want to tease her more. "Despite Anna"s warning to stay away from Ilana, I still managed to get close to her secretly. I made Ilana thinks that I care for her and that I have fallen for her."
Aaron did all of that the next day after Ilana"s first appearance to the school. He promised his sister that he will stay away from Ilana, but he couldn"t himself, he badly wants to know her secret. He may look like a jerk for making Ilana thinks that she"s very special to him, but it"s his only way to make sure that Ilana will talk.
However, despite his efforts, Ilana is careful. Unfortunately for her, last night"s events made all of her secrets exposed to him. Now, it is time to make her stop thinking that she has a special spot in his heart.
"How did Anna react to your disobedience?"
"Truthfully, she was very calm about it. But I am surprised by what she did though." Aaron still remembered the thing that his sister showed to him, it really surprised him. "Uncle Mike has this new invention and Anna borrowed it. She used it to follow Ilana"s every move around the school. That"s how she knew that I"m having contact with Ilana, and I guess she trusted me for that."
Aaron actually thought that Anna will get really angry at him for breaking his promise to her, but it turned out to be in her favor in the end.
"If I don"t know your sister any better, I would think that she"s a stalker."
