Chapter 1033 - Lovely Afternoon (1/2)

”What are you doing?” JM laughed when she saw her brother punching the air. She had gotten used to his antics since she was very young.

Terry must be feeling really good about something.

What could it be? It must be related to his work. He was such a workaholic, she thought.

When Terry was still leading the Schneider Group in America, he was really busy with work and barely had time for personal life. Though he didn't mind that since the high profile girls he was dating were all busy people too.

JM naively thought Terry was like that because his role demanded it. She predicted that Terry would start enjoying life as soon as he stepped down, took on a new identity, and became a university student, making movies, his lifelong dream and hobby.

Apparently, she was wrong. Terry was just as busy and a go-getter now as he was before.

Just look where they were now and what they were doing.

Tsk.

JM knew it was futile to ask Terry to slow down and enjoy life like a normal human being.

Maybe working was his life?

She didn't know.

At least she was happy that he wanted to involve her in his projects. They now had more time together for bonding as siblings.

In the past, her brother was always too busy and she couldn't get enough time to be with him. Plus, their worlds seemed to contradict, so it was hard to have an overlap.

He was in the business world, and she was in the entertainment.

However, now things were different. Look, they had been spending the whole week together, planning and executing projects. JM was really happy with the outcome.

”We might be able to attend the royal wedding,” Terry replied JM's question. His face was beaming with excitement. ”That's why I am super excited!”

”Aha.” JM nodded in understanding.

”That's enough. You guys can rest. We will reconvene after dinner and discuss tomorrow's work,” Terry said to his two camera persons.

They looked happy because work ended early. The two men packed their equipment and got ready to go back to their hotel rooms.

Meanwhile, Terry took JM's hand and strode to go back to the Millicent Hotel.

***

Rose's decision to come early to dinner was proven to be the best decision since they could rest and relax after exploring Old Town on foot all afternoon.

Terry was staying in the biggest suite available at the Millicent Hotel, located on the top floor. It was a two-bedroom suite that he shared with his sister. It had a spacious lounge facing the balcony with floor-to-ceiling windows.

The hotel staff let them enter on Terry's order and now both were sitting on the terrace enjoying a glass of wine each while watching the Old Town from above.

”Are you sure we can just make ourselves at home?” Rose asked again. She was not used to entering other people's places and doing whatever she wanted without the owner present. Even with her closest friends, she respected boundaries.

However, Rune and Terry seemed to not have such a thing. Was it because Terry was really Rune's brother?

Their family was really interesting, Rose thought to herself.

”Yeah, don't worry about it. Pierre and JM are family,” Rune said. ”Besides, Pierre already told us to come and wait for them here.”

”Uhm.. okay, then,” Rose finally looked relieved.

She looked around the luxurious suite and now she could totally picture Rune being a young master from a wealthy family.

Come to think of it, Rose should have been suspicious since Rune always carried himself perfectly in fancy or luxurious settings. He was never intimidated or looked out of place.

Yes, he did pretend to admire their seats in the first-class cabin when they flew to Medion, but he knew exactly how all the buttons worked. He didn't have problems with anything at all. He knew what to do and how to behave.

Gosh, now, looking back, Rose could finally see differently all scenes that they went through together. She started to think it was funny and endearing.

”So, you said you have two biological siblings and one adopted. I have met your older sister. She was wonderful! What about your brother? Where is he now?” Rose decided to talk about Rune's family members to pass the time.

”Uhm... three,” Rune corrected Rose.
