Chapter 759 - Seven Hundred And Fifty-Nine: The Men With The Weapons (1/2)
The third point of view :
For a moment, nothing reigned but silence as the situation dawned on them.
”Did Pedro cheat on Isabella?” Ailee was the first to ask, shocked to the marrow. If there was a man that Ailee could bet would never cheat on Isabella, that was Pedro. The both of them were so sweet with each other and let's face reality, who in their right mind would cheat on Isabella unless they wanted death.
”And like I said, love's nothing but hormones that fades with time,” Allen was much happier that his theory was proven.
He turned and at the corner of his eyes saw Isabella stealthily leaving the arena. He alerted the others, ”I don't think our sister is quite happy about it. She looks like she's about to go murder somebody,”
That comment made everybody turn and they happened to catch a glimpse of Isabella before she finally disappeared.
”Isabella is vengeful so she must be going after the woman then,” Neon figured out.
”How can you say that?” Eve didn't believe him.
”Because Pedro's still there,” He pointed to the man who still stood frozen in shock, ”And I know Isabella better than you know her,” Neon said.
”Moreover, people can go to any length to do anything for the people they love,” Neon said, his gaze falling on Ailee who looked away and Theodore noticed the whole interaction with a frown on his face.
”We have to go after her before she does something stupid,” Ailee declared.
”I'm in,” Allen said to Ailee's surprise. Was he suddenly becoming responsible? But that admiration lasted until Allen added, ”The fight would be interesting,”
”Let's go then, what are we waiting for?” Theodore said earning looks from Ailee and Neon.
”You're going?” Ailee was surprised.
”Yes. Why?” he raised an eyebrow at her.
”This is our family business,” Neon explained.
”Are you family then?” Theodore wanted to retort but he could already see the fight he would rouse with that comment and said instead, ”Who knows, you might need much help than you thought you needed?”
Theodore had his suspicion about Ailee and Neon ever since he found out they weren't related by blood. Now, he confirmed his fears, he was salty. He wished he and Neon could fight it one on one for her affection. But this was not the time nor place.
”I'm in,” Eve volunteered.
”Fine, everybody's in. Let's go before the others discover what we're up to. A bunch of idiotic teenagers hoping to be superheroes,” Ailee said but Neon reminded her.
”What about the kids? What if they ruin the dinner?”
Ailee sighed, ”This event is ruined already, what more havoc can they cause?”
”You'd be surprised,” Neon hinted that they should not be underestimated.
”Well, I'm sure they are safe in Dash's hands, let's go,” She grabbed his arm intending to pull him away when she remembered the problem they were facing and pulled free.
”Come on,” She said instead and took her leave first. The tension between the both of them was noticeable and Neon's gaze collided with Theodore's having sensed his glare on him.
There was a bit of conflict on which car they would leave with, however, they ended up with the usual SUV they drove to school with.
Surprisingly, Theodore offered to drive and they left him after another brief argument. Allen ended up sitting in the front with him while Eve sat in between Ailee and Neon. It was better anyway for Ailee since she was free to look at the window, instead of at Neon with her conflicting emotions.
