Chapter 12: 12 12: Go get your princess

McSalter Residence.

The whole family were enjoying their dinner when the phone ring, Novie's mother got up and answered it.

"Hi Anders, How are you?" Novie turned to her mother after hearing her cousin's name.

"Ok, I will clean your house" then she ended the call and went back to her chair.

Novie's father looked at her mom, "Is Anders coming back?" he asked.

Mary shook her head, "No, someone will rent his house, probably his friend" she replied.

Novie is listening to their conversation while eating her food, "Who?" she asked.

Mary shrugged her shoulder, Anders didn't mention a name, "Novie, Do you know a young woman named Selena?" Novie nodded.

"Yes, she's my boss niece, why?" her mother twitched her lips.

"I think she's Anders girlfriend" Novie almost spit the water she's drinking after hearing it.

"What? that's impossible!" she exclaimed, she had seen Selena, her personality and the way she talks and she's certain that it's impossible.

"How come? Didn't you saw his Facebook profile? It says he's in a relationship with Selena Su" Novie gasped with disbelief, she closed her Facebook account five years ago.

"That's ... ahem… shocking. Selena.. she's ah..." Novie wanted to describe her but she could not find the right word.

"Nevermind, when is the new neighbour coming?" she asked.

"He said in the next two days" Novie got up and clean her own plate when she stands in the kitchen, her brother put his plate on the sink.

She glared at him, "Wash your own dishes" she complained.

"You're the woman, this is your job" hearing those words made Novie's blood to flare.

"Why don't you get a woman who can wash your plate" her brother sneered.

"I don't need, you're already washing my plate" Novie flattened her expression and stared at her hands, he was right, she's already washing his plate without her knowing it.

"Can you get a wife and move out" she yelled at him, Brent turned his back and sat on the couch.

"I will not move out until you do" Novie crinkled her nose, she never wins an argument to her brother.

"Ma' Can you throw him out, he has an apartment, he can stay there" she complained but her mother shook her head and handed her the rest of the plate.

"You and your brother need to stop fighting and find someone to marry, so your father and I can have a peace" she complained back.

"Now wash this too" her mother ordered and sat next to her brother. Novie pouted, just because she's the youngest in the house, she gets to do all the work.

She felt a pat on her shoulder when she turned, she saw her father.

"Don't worry Novie, I have junior police you can date. He's not good-looking but his personality is fine" Novie was speechless, thinking how can her father say something like this.

"Here, wash this glass" then he put the glass on the sink.

Novie sighed and shut her eyes, her brother said she's the favourite kid but she disagrees.

After she finished the dishes, Novie dried her hand, she was about to sit when the doorbell rang.

She looked at her family and saw them staring at her, she knows that look; they wanted her to open the door.

Novie blows a sigh and walks to the door. As she opens it, her eyes widened to see her best friend Mila.

"Ah!!!!" they both screamed at the same time.

"Oh my god!, you're still alive" Novie blurted and hug her.

"And you do too!" Mila replied. Instead of offering her to come in, Novie grabs her hand and run outside.

Mila is her best friend since high school, the girl moved to Seoul after her mother remarried to a Korean. After that they communicated via Skype or WhatsApp and Mila is the only person who knows about her relationship with Ken.

They sat on the bench and Novie stared at her.

She noticed that Mila had gained weight; she was just as petite as her but her skin is brown while her eyes were round and black.

Her appearance had changed, but her personality is the same.

"I heard the news, your ex is getting married today. Are you not going to stop him?" Mila asked.

Novie creased her brows by her question, she doesn't have a plan to barge at his wedding. She's not even sure if he remembers her.

"No, so stop and tell me why you still don't have a boyfriend" Novie replied, the girl lowered her face while blushing and Novie rolled her eyes by Mila's reaction.

Mila has been crushing her brother since they were 10, but Mila is not the type of woman Brent will ever date.

"Well, at least we are both single" they both giggled and spends the whole night catching up.

In the car.

Daniella parked the car in the hospital next to her husband's office.

Ken just followed his sister, she hasn't given any explanation why she crashed his wedding. As they entered the elevator, he decided to ask her.

"What do you mean by 'real fiancee'?" he asked. Daniella looked at him.

"I saw the conversation between Anna and your mother, Novie left not because she doesn't love you" Ken's body frost by her words, the elevator door opened and they both walked towards the chopper that has been waiting in the rooftop.

"What do you mean?" he seized her arms, stopping her from walking.

"Your mother did something to Novie's brother, I don't know exactly what is it but I will investigate it. In the meantime, you will go to Novie and get her back. You need to marry her so my five-year-old spoiled daughter can be a flower girl once again" she explained and catches her breath.

But her reply didn't answer his question.

"What about my mom?" he asked.

Daniella sighed.

"Like I've said I don't know the whole details. I will need to talk to your mom in person to get the answer"

Ken nodded, but he thought of his mother's health.

"Daniella, this is a mistake. My mother will only accept the therapy if I marry Anna" problems fills his head, he wants to be with Novie but his mother has been suffering for the past twenty years, the last thing he wanted was for his mother to get hurt.

Daniella put a hand on Ken's shoulder and tap it twice.

"About your mom, I will help her but since she hates me, I will need to use force and knock her out. So don't forget to sign the medical papers I will send to you. I don't want my doctor license to get revoke just because I helped here. Anyway" Daniella catches her breath once again.

"Go get your princess" she winked at Ken and turned her back but the man stops her.

"What if she's with someone?" he spoke, Daniella could see the fear in his eyes.

"Well, ask yourself. What will you do?" Ken fell deep in his thought, he could not think straight.

When he woke up this morning, he already prepared himself to marry Anna then this happens. His heart pounded, and he feels butterfly.

But his sister question scares him, thinking what if Novie is with someone else?

"I will let her go" he spoke in a defeated tone, to him, If Novie has someone she loves, he will let her have her happiness.

He was thinking so deep when a strong hand punched his arms, his eyes widened with anger and looked at Daniella.

"Why did you punched me?" Ken asked, fuming.

"Wrong answer brother, if Novie is with someone else, married or not, you will call me so I can seduce him and you will focus on getting her back" Daniella replied.

Ken's eyebrow rose, "And what about Evan and the triplets?"

Daniella pouted, "Hm… I haven't thought that far yet" Daniella giggled and pushed him towards the chopper where Scott is waiting.

"I spoke to Anders, you will live in his house until Novie takes you back and don't worry about your company I will handle it together with your mom" Daniella winked and ran to the exit.

Ken was confounded, then he turned to the chopper.

When Novie's face flash in his mind, his lips curved up while his heart beats like a drum.
