Alena was biting her nails seeing the envelopes in her lap.
"Can you stop bitting them"
"Huh," she asked in confusion.
"You just need to hand over these envelopes," he said.
"can't I deliver them by post"
"But Aunt Mel had written to hand them personally."
"In this short amount of time, How did you get his appointment."
"Is there anyone in the world who would refuse to have dinner with Samuel kingth except you." he raised his collar.
"Dinner," she yelled at him.
"I told you to fix an appointment in his office."
"his assistant informed me his schedule was packed this week. so I request him to fix a dinner with his family."
"Family." she
"by the way you could meet everyone at once."
"we."
"Hey, I have done my part." he raised his hands.
"Now go inside the restaurant have a nice dinner and hand it to them."
"You will wait in the car and enjoy the music."
"Do I have any choice." he just added oil to the fire.
"Of course you have, we're going." he shook his head negatively.
"Or forget about these completely." she declared.
"Non-negotiable," she said before he could open his mouth.
He followed her without any choice. The restaurant was one of the most luxurious restaurants in the city. It was famous for satisfying the appetites of the customers. this was the place to rejuvenate tired spirits through lip-smacking delicacies.
the service was available round the clock at a high price due to its reputation and healthy and hygienic food was made by professionally managed chefs.
They went to the VIP section where they reserved the cabin for the dinner.
"We had a joint reservation along with Mr. Romano," he said to the one guard who was in front of the cabin. the other guard pushed the door to enter the cabin.
"just calm down, everything would be fine." he squeezed her hand before entering.
she held his shirt sleeves in nervousness when they turned towards them.
"Mr.kingth." His voice came out as a doubt.
"It's my pleasure to meet you Mr.Romano." he greeted him politely.
"It's pleasant to meet you."
"Please, have a seat." Antonio requested. The table has six chairs. Antonio sat at one of head chair, his eldest son sat in his left side. The twins sat on his right side. Samuel pulled out another head chair for her as a gentleman before he sat beside Alexander.
"Can we discuss this while having dinner?" Antonio asked politely.
"Of course sir." then the group of waiters came in to take their orders. He ordered behalf her as she was busy observing her newfound brothers. soon the waiters started to serve the food according to their orders.
The Romanos were chatting among themselves while eating as it was normal for them. Alena hadn't touched her food and he was waiting for her to eat.
"At least eat few bites." she closed her eyes for a moment and took a bite.
"You're younger than I imagined Mr. kingth." Antonio voiced out of nowhere.
"How old had you imagined?" he questioned him. "To be honest around forty." Alena couldn't help but giggle lowly but covered it with a cough feeling his gaze.
"I can assure you, sir, I'm not even older than twenty-five. you can call me Samuel." he gives him a tight-lipped smile.
"Who was the pretty lady along with you." Samuel was looking here and there.
"he said along," she said while pressing her fingers one by one.
"well if you count her as the ladies especially pretty one. she is Alena Smith." his lips curved up.
"tit for tat." he winked at her while she passed him a sweet smile but her eyes narrowed.
"You shouldn't tease your girlfriend" Antonio stated.
"Eww, he/she is not my girlfriend/boyfriend," They said at the same time with disgusting faces while pointing their fingers at each other and then scoffed turning to the other side.
they came back to their sense when they heard one of the twin was laughing loudly or probably at them. their eyes widened when they realized they embracing each other.
"We are sorry." They faced each other and rolled their eyes on each other.
"Are you twins?" Another twin questioned.
"Do we look like a twins?"
"Hey, can you stop copying my words?"
"Who is copying whose words." They glared at each other folding their hands.
"They are twins." Another twin declared.
"we are" they paused for a second.
"I think you should continue." They closed their eyes in irritation.
"their reactions are like a person acting in front of the mirror." Alexander commented.
"Don't insult me comparing with him/her."
"What did you just say? Insult." They clenched their jaws.
"What a way to embrace ourselves in front of others." They facepalmed together. Now four of them looks at them with wide eyes.
"Nothing is embracing in this but you two are funny. I hope we can meet again." Antonio gives them a big friendly smile. Samuel cleared his throat.
"Mr. Romano, I will come straight to the point. we came here to hand over few envelopes." Samuel's voice turned into professional.
"Envelopes?." Antonio questioned.
"Al." he signaled her to hand over those envelopes.
"huh, can I personally hand them over with my hands." she requested taking four envelopes from her handbag.
"Definitely." she slowly walked towards the other end.
"It was for you sir." she handed it to Antonio.
"It's for you, Mister." she handed it to the oldest son of Antonio to him. they know Alexander was the oldest according to the album. she paused for a second when she couldn’t identify Dante and Zayden as they are identical Twins.
"Dante Romano."
"Here" she passed when he raised his hand.
"Last It's for you sir." she handed to Zayden as it was only left and walked back to her chair.
"There wasn't any sender name on top of the envelopes," Alexander asked her.
"She should forget to write," she replied with a smile.
"Who is she?" Antonio questioned her.
"Melissa Smith," she answered. Antonio looked at his sons they shrugged in reply.
