Getting busy with both NGO and his new start-up, Linus didn't have time to go on dates. So Krystle just followed him everywhere as she didn't have much to do. Linus was coaxing her to go home and rest when a group of young men approached them in front of a restaurant.
The three of them were wearing suits, while the other two looked trendy in their leather jackets and boots. "Oh, Krystle…" The first man called out waving his hand.
"He…" He pretended to be thinking pointing at Linus. Then he gasped, "Runaway president's son." There was a time they were greeting Linus. After Bernard resigned without a valid reason, they became a topic of laughter.
The five friends laughed, low-fiving each other. One of them added as they had seen Linus persuading her for something, "Did you find yourself a man-mamma? Is he refusing to feed you milk?"
A four laughed and the third man teased her, "Why don't you try us? We have a lot of milk." He guffawed at his words.
Linus was trying to cool Krystle but the latter smirked slyly, "I remember Nancy saying there is just an inch down there. Tsk, I wonder what's in it."
Linus was speechless. He knew his Hotheaded wasn't the one to get provoked by such comments but her tongue gets sour if pressed on her nerves.
The third man's face turned bright red in embarrassment and anger. "You-"
Linus turned to the man and cut in. His face was dark knowing that man was about to curse Krystle. He probed, "She?" What if he was the son of the former president, the Collins family is a reputed military family. Offending them wasn't good for their family.
Krystle stood by Linus and looked at the first man. Just because she has fun and ignores the gossip doesn't mean she wasn't up to date with the news or dirt of the socialite families. "I see your ego is still hurt by my rejection. Go little boy, grow up first."
His friends looked at him in shock. They had heard a different story from their friend.
Obviously, the first man was pissed off. How could he just leave? He scoffed, glancing at Linus, "I am not a man whore, after all." He made it sound like rejection was better than spending the night with her. He strode away to his sports car.
Krystle was about to curse him, but Linus blocked her, "Ignore them." They were jealous of him and they were passing comments. They don't have to fall their low lever.
However Krystle hissed looking at the first man, "Are you even fit to be a whore? Get a feeding bottle and suck on it."
How dare they call her boyfriend a man whore? She was going to teach him a lesson. She scoffed without voicing it to Linus.
Linus: "…"
He felt his ear buzz with her voice before she wrapped her arms around him, puffing and huffing in anger.
Pulling her head back, she pecked on his lips and grinned, "Don't worry, you are my sexy, energetic body warmer." If he was just to please her on the bed, she wouldn't have become his girlfriend.

Both didn't notice the slowly passing car recording them.
Linus managed to coax her and went to his work. Krystle who knew about Anya moving to her new villa soon, went to the Oasis mansion to help her pack if any.

At the Oasis mansion,
Since Anya was taking only the clothes she used, there wasn't much to pack. Krystle was pressing the luggage to close it when she got a call from her mother, "Mom…" Her voice of struggle sounded.

[Krystle, come home now.]
Krystle's attention was on the overflowing clothes in the luggage, she didn't notice the panic in her mother's voice. "Mom, I am in Hill Valley. I need to help Anya. I will call you later." She hung up the call and left the mobile aside.
After completing her work, she went to Zane's room forgetting her mobile that kept ringing.
….
In the evening,
The butler found Krystle in Zane's room and reported to her, "Ms. Lewis, your parents have arrived. They are waiting for you downstairs." Alvin allowed them to the mansion considering Linus.
'My parents?' She hurried downstairs and noticed Linus's Buggati coming to a halt in front of the mansion. "Linus!?" He had lots of paperwork and a meeting.
'Why did he come back?' She slapped her forehead realizing her parents were there to meet Linus. She could have taken him home when he was free.
Linus had gotten a call from Krystle's father when Krystle wasn't answering the call. Father Lewis didn't sound good over the call so he dropped his work to see what was happening,
"Where is brother?" Linus asked the butler while hurrying inside. There was a hint of nervousness in his tone.
"Mr. Collins, Mr. Matthews is in the study. Shall I inform him?" Butler asked, sensing the tense air.
"No, don't disturb him." He didn't want to trouble Alvin. He knew he would have to face her parents soon, and hadn't expected it to be so soon.
Both went to the living hall where the man was annoyed and the woman was displeased. Father Lewis glared at Linus before facing his daughter. He threw his mobile on the coffee table and questioned, "What is this? Are you doing all these outside home?" He questioned fiercely.
Linus and Krystle watched the video of Krystle wrapping her arms around Linus's neck and pecking on his lips. Thanks to the moving car, it captured them smoothly.

'Well-directed,' Krystle thought, without taking the situation seriously.
The butler couldn't just stand and watch them. He decided to update Alvin and went aside to make a call.
Mother Lewis grabbed Krystle's hand and pulled her away from Linus, "Have you thought of your reputation? What about your career?" Her worry was about her daughter's present and future.
Krystle pulled her mother's hand away. She disliked how they looked at Linus as if he was a criminal. She hadn't expected those scums to make their video and send it to her parents.
"How is it wrong to kiss my boyfriend?" She retorted, going back to stand by Linus.
Father and mother Lewis were stunned for a moment. They didn't know she was in a relationship, "You-"
Krystle cut in with a smile, "Mom, Dad, meet my boyfriend, Linus Collins." She introduced, assuming they would cool down as he was her boyfriend and they never restricted her from dating.
Looking at their reaction, Linus couldn't bring himself to greet them. He was sure they had a problem with him rather than the video they received.
She continued without grasping the situation, "I thought to introduce him after some time. Anyway…" She turned to Linus, "Linus, they are my parents."

Then her attention returned to her father's mobile. She sent the video to her phone, "How did you get the video, dad?" She decided to just announce her relationship with Linus if the video was leaked.
Father Lewis could only see his daughter's actions as immature and ignorant. The nerves on his forehead were protruding in anger. "Krystle, have you lost your mind?" He growled at her seeing her lost in her world.
Krystle: ??
Mother Lewis held her husband's hand to stop him from being hard on their daughter. She softly tried to make her understand, "Krystle, we have no problem if you want to date and choose your partner. But you have to be careful. He…" She hesitantly added in a low voice, "He does nothing. How is he going to look after you?"
In the past few hours, they had thought of every possibility after looking at the video. They found out as much information about Linus and rushed there.
Krystle found her mother's words nothing but ridiculous. They were allowing her to look for her partner but with conditions. However, she didn't lose her cool.
She proudly introduced Linus's work and achievements, "Mom, Dad, Linus runs an NGO. Do you know, it is awarded as the best NGO in the country. They have helped around three hundred thousand people so far. They get funds from across the country."
She grinned glancing at Linus and came down to the new job he picked for her, "He is starting a new project to help the refugees get a job…"
Father Lewis lifted his hand to stop his daughter from speaking so highly of Linus. He frowned at Linus without understanding how he grabbed her attention as she was always surrounded by wealthy, talented people.

"What does he do for a living?" He demanded a response, "Or are you planning to live with him in a refugee tent?" He taunted.
He couldn't bring himself to imagine his precious daughter living a hard life because of a man of her choice. He would rather break her heart now than see her suffer all her life.
