Chapter 134: Visiting The Zhou Residence

Ronan and Evelyn were dumbfounded when the messenger told them that the King and Queen of Werewolves were going to visit the human world. They were passing through the Northern Gate Portal where the gatekeepers from the Zhou Family were assigned.

They were still in a trance when the messenger continued relaying the information to Ronan. "But the King and the Queen want their visit confidential for their protection. The vampire rebels might attack and target them once they learn about the Werewolf King's visit."

"Okay, I understand. Is there anything your Queen and King need from us aside from opening the portal gate?" Ronan asked the Messenger, his eyes gleaming. He was thinking that he could use this information so that Cedric would finally talk to him.

"No. Just open the portal gate for them at the given time. I will let you know once our King finalizes his schedule."

Ronan just nodded his head while the Messenger turned around to leave. His task was done so he had no reason to stay there longer. He had to go back to his station and wait for another instruction coming from the Kingdom Phantasia. He would prepare something for the coming of their King and Queen.

Meanwhile, Ronan just watched the messenger as he left his office. He had complicated emotions on his face. Ronan was never close to Dominique Silvano. That's one of the reasons he chose to form an alliance with Cedric Morgan, the Alpha who was planning to overthrow the current Leaders of the Werewolf Clan.

However, Cedric had been avoiding him lately. He didn't know what was happening to him. Ronan felt insecure and alarmed about this. Was Cedric backing out of their partnership. Was he planning to destroy their alliance? 

'But I know his plan. If he tries to abandon me, breaking our alliance, I can blackmail him with what I know. I can sell the information to Dominique Silvano. I think Cedric is not that dumb to think about this consequence.' 

With these thoughts in mind, Ronan disregarded the idea that Cedric Morgan would abandon him. 'Maybe he is truly busy with something. Are the vampire forces trying to retaliate against the werewolf clan? Is it really serious?'

He was still lost in his own thoughts when Evelyn spoke up, snapping him back to the present.

"Honey, are you okay? You look like your mind is wandering off somewhere," Evelyn said, tapping Ronan's shoulder.

Ronan heaved a deep sigh, massaging his temples. Marceline's appointment as the new Chairman and Cedric's avoidance were making him stressed and very concerned.

"I'm sorry. I'm just thinking about contacting Cedric and informing him about the visit of Dominique Silvano and his wife." Ronan pulled his wife into a hug before guiding him to the sofa. The husband and wife sat down side by side.

"Honey, there is something you need to know." Evelyn had decided to tell her husband that Marceline already knew what happened eighteen years ago.

"Hmm, okay. Just tell me," Ronan responded with a small smile on his face. Now that he saw his wife, his mood brightened up for a moment.

"Marceline, I think… she is going to blame you for her parents' death as she learned something about the incident eighteen years ago."

Ronan's eyebrows twitched at the mention of the incident eighteen years ago. "What do you mean? What did she learn? Who told you that information?" 

Evelyn fell silent for a moment. Her husband had no idea about her connection to Vladimir and the White Claw Pack. She had to think of an alibi. She couldn't tell him that the information came from Vladimir, her master.

"I asked someone to spy on your niece. Remember, you told me about her sudden marriage. You were suspicious about her bodyguard and Marceline so I initiated to do a background check on him, as well as to spy on them."

Ronan's face dimmed when he realized something. 'Is this the reason why Marceline married her bodyguard? She just wants to get the Zhou Empire from me!'

Ronan clenched his jaw, his eyes burning with rage. Marceline was now declaring war. He would not back down. He gambled everything eighteen years ago for him to get the Zhou Empire. He would not give up now. Not today! He would continue fighting for his goal!

"The Zhou Empire is never hers! It's mine! It's OURS!"

Evelyn just nodded her head in agreement. Now she was convinced that Ronan would not be merciful towards Marceline even though she was his niece. Everything was still going according to her plan.

"Don't worry, Honey. If you just need help. I am just here for you. I think the better solution for this is to talk to your Dad. He is the only one who can change the will and testament and the distribution of Zhou Family's inheritance." Evelyn suggested to her husband.

"It's not that easy! My father is already firm with his decision. No one can change his mind. He didn't even acknowledge my accomplishment for the past few years. He couldn't see my efforts and hard work. For him, I would always be the second-best."

Ronan didn't hide the resentment he felt towards his father. He felt like he was just nothing to his father. Grandpa Roland still chose his eldest son's daughter to run the company business, instead of him, his own son!

"My father is always biased," He mumbled through his gritted teeth.

Evelyn just looked at him helplessly. She could understand his feelings. This was the reason she was able to capture his heart easily and gain his trust. Ronan was insecure about himself as he always felt inferior to his elder brother– Marceline's father.

"Just leave it to me, Honey. I will be the one to convince Dad," Evelyn volunteered. She was confident that she could do something about this concern.

Ronan just stared at his wife for a long moment. To think about it, Grandpa Roland and Evelyn seemed to have a good relationship with each other.

When Grandpa Roland was sick, Evelyn was the one who was taking care of him. So there was no harm trying. Who knows, his father might actually listen to his wife?

"Alright. You can try and talk to him later at home."

Evelyn pounced on him, hugging his body. "Thanks, Honey, for believing in me. I will not let you down. I will do my best," She reassured him.

"Of course, you are my wife so I always put my trust in you!" Ronan hugged her back. He had been relying on his wife ever since he had met her. 

For him, she was his source of strength and happiness so matter what she would say, he would always do his best to listen to her, just like what he was doing right now. He was listening to her every suggestion. He never questioned nor doubted her even once.

[ Zhou Family Villa: Night Time… ]

Evelyn thought she could implement her plan tonight after talking to Grandpa Roland. But who would have thought that her initial plan would be disrupted because of the presence of the two people– Kira and Marceline!

The members of the Zhou Family were having dinner when unannounced visitors showed up in the dining area. Marceline and Kira entered the villa without informing the Zhou Family. Even Grandpa Roland was surprised to see them.

"Marceline! My granddaughter! I didn't expect this. Come and join us. Why didn't you tell me that you are coming tonight?!" Grandpa Roland spoke spontaneously because of excitement. It was very rare for Marceline to visit the Zhou Residence– the main villa.

"Because this is a surprise visit, grandpa. Do you mind if my husband and I sleepover here tonight?" Marceline asked, hugging her grandpa.

"Of course not! You are both welcome here. Besides, Kira is part of the Zhou Family now. He is your husband!" Grandpa Roland promptly responded, pulling Marceline to the vacant seat next to him. Kira just smiled and followed them.

Ronan and Natasha were unhappy to see the couple while Enrique only hated Kira's presence. Evelyn, on the other hand, maintained her friendly expression as she greeted Kira and Marceline with a warm smile on her face.

A heavy tension suddenly engulfed the dining area. Only Grandpa Roland and Evelyn were welcoming Kira and Marceline. Natasha and Ronan tried to ignore their presence. Enrique lost his appetite because of Kira so he already stopped eating but he remained in his seat.

"Marceline, this is a pleasant surprise. I'm glad that you visited us here. What made you do it?" Though Evelyn's voice sounded friendly, Kira could still see the animosity in her eyes.

'Is she just faking this, trying to look good and innocent in front of Marceline, but deep inside she has hostility toward Marceline?' Kira thought to himself, assessing Evelyn's face and reactions.

"I'm here to formally introduce my husband to the family. I also want to grab this opportunity for everyone to know Kira more," Marceline replied, but her eyes were fixed on Kira, giving him a meaningful glance.

They were there to find the Ametiz Stones of her parents. That's the concrete evidence that would implicate Ronan Zhou to the incident eighteen years ago.

But unknown to Marceline, she would encounter difficulty in finding the stones as the Ametiz Stone was harmful to both werewolves and vampires.. Kira and Marceline couldn't touch the stones so they had to think of a plan on how they would show the stones to the Zhou Patriarch, Grandpa Roland.
