Walking out of the Study room Eliza said, "Beth Why don't you show your friends around the manor while I and Amy fetch the Cerberus core." 

"Okay!" Said Beth excitedly and added, "Follow me I will show you my favourite spot in the manor." Then we followed the excited Beth's lead. 

Turning around the corner Beth said, "Aren't you greed Wyatt to bluntly ask for a Cerberus core." 

Hearing Beth Corey and Susan's cheeks turned red in embarrassment but I was unfazed. Was I shameless and greedy for asking Cerberus core even though Amy signed an IOU to pay for my fees, Yes I am guilty of all of that! But this was the only chance I could get to get my hands on a Cerberus core this early otherwise it may take me months before I got influential enough so that Cerberus core is no longer a restricted ingredient for me. I was running on borrowed time, did not know when my enemies will knock on my door. So, I had to make use of available resources… It's not like giving me a Cerberus core could bankrupt the Whiteburn family. 

"Nope! I asked what I needed. It's up to you whether you give it or not." I replied to Beth's signature scorn filled remark. 

"Believe me if it were up to me I would not." Said Beth. 

"I believe you. Is this the only way you know to talk?" I asked Beth, after all, she just introduced us as her friends to father and elder sister and now she is acting like this. I wasn't able to figure her out.

"What's wrong with the way I speak? Is it my pronunciation!" Asked Beth clueless. 

"Nothing!" I said in frustration. Talking to her was like pouring water on a rock. 



"Sister, why did you restrain me earlier? Pax did not pledge father's name. I did! I have to come clean about this with our father." Questioned Amy as soon as Eliza let her go. 

"I know. Pax doesn't even know the meaning of pledge or how it works. Even Beth figured out that part." Eliza spoke nonchalantly. 

"Then Why did you stop me?" Asked Amy in confusion. 

"How did it feel when your brother and sister were being punished for your mistake?" Eliza asked Amy looking into her eyes.

"Sister! don't tell me you did this all for a teachable moment. You are acting like dad day by day." Said Amy figuring out what Eliza was up to. 

"You are also growing up day by day and have a lot to learn. Now answer, how did it feel?" Eliza asked once again. 

"Okay! I know the drill you won't let me go until I answer you. Seeing Pax and Beth get punished I felt incompetent as their sister. I felt disappointed about myself for not standing up and accepting my fault when our father asked, then Pax would not have to choose to take the blame for me." Amy poured out her feelings onto her sister.

"Good now imagine 10 times nay Imagine 100 times worse of this feeling, now remember that feeling that's how you are going to feel when one of your party members or comrade dies in a mission because of your wrong judgement." Elaborated Eliza to her sister as her eyes turned red. 

"Sister, what happened at the mission? Why did father have to come to your rescue?" Amy knew her sister was not a psychopath like her father to make every moment a teachable moment unless it is necessary. 

"Smith and Jake died because I did not think that my enemies will use suicide assassins to ambush us while we were dealing with the boss monster." Narrated Eliza, the more she talked the redder her eyes grew but not a drop of tear fell from them in order not to humiliate her party member's brave sacrifice. 

"Sister! you can't blame yourself for this… Someone must have leaked your information. That traitor is to be held accountable for this." Amy tried to console her sister. 

"I know, that is why I am here and not there mourning for my comrades." As Eliza spoke her reddened eyes shone with a red murderous glint. 

...

"How is it! These are all the dresses I wore every single day since I was born." Said Beth as she showcased her large collection of dresses. 

"Wait! There are like 6300+ dresses of varying sizes here, the count should reach 6200 something even if you wore each dress for once a day. How is the hell do you have more dress?" Asked Susan in awe thinking 'rich are so wasteful!' 

"You are forgetting the partyware" reminded Beth.

*sigh*

With a sigh Susan turned to Corey and asked, " you also keep all your dresses." 

"No, I do not. I stopped recently but I used to keep the dress on which got 1k likes or 0.2k comments and other dresses I burnt them off." With every word, Corey's cheeks grew redder and redder in embarrassment. Wondering why she enjoyed doing something so pointless. 

"I knew I would find you guys here! This is Beth's favourite room. She does not bring someone unless they are important to her." Eliza Walked in with Amy and revealed her sister's secret to prepare her sister's friend to understand how much it meant for Beth to bring them here. 

"My sister is just kidding around guys." Beth hurriedly tried to cover the embarrassing secret that her elder sister revealed. 

"Haha! Mr Wyatt here's the Cerberus core you asked for. Thank you for helping out my siblings. Anything else I can help you with?" Eliza polity asked. 

"Then I would like to use your card room, I want to create a card." Hearing these words Eliza was dumbstruck, she was just being polite and did not think I would take her words literally. 

"I will arrange it, please wait." Covering her confused expression Elize left in hurry to make the arrangements. 

Susan and Corey shook their heads while Amy and Beth glared at me, in response, I acted innocent. Where were your glints when your dad played with me? This is so funny, No wonder Jack liked to do this so much. 

I did not ask to use the card room just for the fun of it but I was planning on creating my second origin card here. As I knew the warehouse will be crowded and noisy today, haunted by the enthusiastic reporters and social media influencers. So the warehouse was not the best choice to create my second origin card. And also wanted to avoid meeting uncle and auntie Wyatt as much as possible as I still had not figured out how to explain to them why I did not inform them of papa and mama Wyatt's death or funeral. Young Wyatt really screwed me over on this one.
