Charles as Traitor
Johanna was watching her daughter swimming with her father. Dione and Calli were also enjoying the pool together with their dads. She admired them. She needs to chill out from all of Quinn's wants. It was a big headache as she would argue about what she wanted in the future. She was amused at how Quinn can sink everything quickly into her head.
Her phone rang just when she was chilling. She answered it and chewed some cashews.
"Hello?"
"Hannah Grace, it's Ken. Did your husband tell you to call me back or something?"
"He totally forgot. He's busy playing with Quinn."
"Okay, uh. Listen."
"I'm listening." She continued chewing.
"I need your help. I might risk my Empire, but I surrender the Charles Empire to you for the sake of my child. Let's meet up."
"Meet up? Bro, your brother-in-law was trying to bomb that land."
"He bombs it. He's not bombing the land. He needs it more." Kennedy said. "My wife and my baby are in danger. I can feel it. His aura was different. I hope you understand."
"As long as you are trying to be cool with me then I will help you. But currently, I am occupied. You got it?"
"With what?" Kennedy sounded a little frustrated. She looked down at her stomach and then at her baby girl who was being taught how to dive by her father. She looked so happy being in the water.
"My daughter is just adorable. You know that."
Kennedy was silent for a while.
"Yes, you kept bragging about that."
"Okay~~let's talk some other time. Or else, you will get killed. The Charles Empire is still a traitor to our Empire. Also, don't forget that I killed your sister."
Kennedy was silent again. It takes a few seconds until he speaks again.
"Right," he mumbled.
"Your grandfather might get up from his grave. Do you know what I mean? Even the Serpent will call you a traitor or worse, they will disown you and take everything from you. They don't care if they took your pregnant wife. They wouldn't care about you. That's how snakey they are."
"Do you mean sneaky?"
"No. Snake-y." She sighed and picked a perfect piece of cashew.
"Jo, we need to work on this." Keira interrupted and didn't realize that she was talking to someone over the phone. "Apologies. I will get back to it." She said and winked.
"As I was saying if you want the Serpent out~~you might want to cooperate with us."
"You know that I can't."
"It's up to you. Bye." Johanna hung up.
She again watched as MJ dipped in the pool with Kaiden. The baby boy quickly wagged his arms and legs as he gasped. His face and overall expression were priceless. Connor snapped it quickly and laughed with Harvey.

Leon, who was currently in the hospital with his wife who was going into labor, tried hard to contact them for moral support. Ace wasn't even answering and he was about to cry because Alicia was suffering. She wanted to have a normal birthing since it was easy to heal rather than a c-section. He held her hand and kissed it.
"I am fine. I am breathing fine." She giggled at him. "Our babies are like kicking each other." She sighed. "I can't wait."
"I can't wait as well." He reached for her hand and kissed it. "I love you."
"I know you do." She whispered.
"Let's stay in the mansion. I am still putting a lot of protective stuff in our house for our baby." He bent down and kissed her big stomach as one of the babies kicked him. "Ow," He winced. "Alright, which one of you just kicked me? It's not good to kick someone in the face. And stop kicking and punching each other. Okay?" he kissed her tummy again.
"I need to walk." She decided. Leon helped her to stand up from the sofa as they started walking to the corridor. It was too sudden when she felt those crazy contractions. "Ow," She held her stomach. "I think they are about to come."
"Okay~~okay. Just breathe, let's walk back."
She took quick steps and Leon quickly called for the nurse. She exhaled slowly and the nurses took her to the delivery room that was assigned to her. They waited there and when her water broke, it was a quick sign that the twins wanted to get out and probably got tired from punching each other. Leon took out her phone and called everyone. No one answered and last~~he called Keira who answered quickly.
"Hello?"
"We are still in the hospital and Alicia is about to give birth."
Keira was silent and then she started shouting at everyone. He grinned, excited and nervous.
"I'll see you guys!" he said, then he hung up. Since the room was sanitized, he needed to put a proper PPE for the delivery room. He sat beside his wife and held her hand.
"Continue breathing just as we practice," Leon said and kissed her head. "You can do it."

Kennedy stared at the documents in front of him. Since he has a lot of loyal followers, he can work it out. He exhaled slowly as he called his men to prepare the car. He drove directly to the mansion as he gathered a few documents. Then, he quickly left the area and called out his lawyers. He needs to transfer pieces of land to someone else's name. He needs to protect Danica and their child. Even though he will become a traitor in this Empire, he only wanted goodness and to get back on the track where he's used to working as a CEO.
The lawyers were surprised, but they quickly processed everything. Residences in Italy, America Canada were named to Hannah Grace. He just needed to make Johanna sign a few documents to acknowledge that she was a holder of these things. There are also companies that he didn't put under the Charles Empire, it was the ones that he put under his name using his mother's surname to keep it in a private account that he hadn't been touched. The time will come when all of the money that they have will be drained since the money wasn't theirs from the very start.
"How about the facility?" Her Lawyer number 1 said.
"I don't need that."
He took the documents and put them in the safety briefcase. He then drove his car by himself directly to the mansion of De Alegre. It wasn't that far from their mansion so when he reached it, he spoke to the guard, and shortly, they let him in. It's time to meet Johanna. The maids were polite and he was escorted to the swimming pool where babies are jumping to the five feet swimming pool.
His heart nearly jumped but the baby girl popped up and swam toward her father.
"Hey," Johanna waved at him. He bowed at the men in the pool as he approached her. He opened the briefcase and took out a document.
"I apologize for intervening."
"We were just talking like four hours ago." She said,
"I have to make this quick. I need you to sign this."
She was curious as she checked the contract.
"You named your~~"
"Yes, it's for my wife and child. I know that our family had this bad blood but, please spare them."
"Okay," Johanna said nonchalantly which surprised him.
"It was nothing for you?" he asked.
"It's fine with me." She nodded her head.
"Thank you."
"What if I took it myself and kicked out your wife and child?"
"Well, it's up to you." He also showed a bank account and gave the written passwords. "It is the only money that I owned from my business. I am afraid that he would also take it and drain it for the big war that he's preparing."
Johanna stared at him and checked it. 2
"This is~~ enormous."
"Yes. It will give my child a normal free from financial problems until she graduates and gets married. So, please spare it."
"I have no interest in money. My husband is rich."
Quinn ran to them.
"Mama." She smiled and peeked at the briefcase. "Wat~dat?" She asked.
Kennedy was a little indifferent since it was the first time that Quinn spoke to him. Hannah Grace's offspring.
"It's confidential, little girl."
"Cofideshutital?" She asked.
"Yes," Then, she went to take a purse as she took out a stash of money and extended it to him. "Okane. I pay~~cofidehsushishal." She pointed to the briefcase.
"Darling, it's not for sale," Johanna said as Kennedy looked puzzled.
"Does she always have money in her purse?"
"Yeah, she played with it." Johanna laughed. "If she saw something exquisite. She would buy it."
"Okane." She told him. "Okane." She pointed to the briefcase.
"What in he~~" He bit his tongue. "Are you serious?" He asked.
Johanna laughed as she took the cash and put it back to Quinn's first.
"Darling, that's rude. Say hi first to Ken."
"Hi, Ken." She said as she extended her hand.
Somehow, Ken shook it as he stared at Quinn's eyes that were identical to Hannah Grace.
