Caesar Hotel, Mystich City, Oldwyn, Netheria.
Keith smiled when he looked at the anxiety on Mathew's face.
The bold Heir of the Oscar Family came to this party uninvited, and now he was standing in front of him and his wife, holding out his hand to shake it with her.
And Amelia bore her eyes into him, making his confidence crumble down.
She never shook her hand with people she was unfamiliar with, especially men. And in their culture, it was actually considered rude to approach a stranger and hold out your hand to shake it with them, and it was considered very rude to try and shake hands with women who were married.
Keith actually found it quite amusing for two Children of Destiny to face off against each other, and he wondered what would happen if Amelia killed Mathew instead of him.
Yes, he had just received a System Prompt that Mathew's Invincible Halo had ended.
"Were you just trying to forcefully grab Amira's hand?" His wife coldly asked.
"Yes, Sister. He was being mean!" Amira and Reina, who were standing right behind them right now glared at Mathew, who had approached them out of nowhere and tried to initiate a conversation.
"No, Ma'am. I think it's a misunderstanding. I was just saying hello to them and only reached forward to shake hands."
"We don't want to shake hands with you!" Reina disgustedly said, and by now, a lot of people at the party had turned to look in their direction.
"Is everything okay, Master Demiliore?" Javier and Hannah approached them, and the latter frowned as she looked at Mathew.
She too had learnt a lot about this man in the last few weeks, and she was actually a little disgusted with herself for ever holding some good feelings for the Heir of the Oscar Family.
Hannah had recently learnt that she was pregnant, and now, she seemed to have accepted Javier as the one she planned on spending the rest of her life with.
It was quite funny actually, as she kept holding Javier's arm whenever they were together. It was as if she was declaring to everyone that he belonged to her or that she was scared he would run away.
"Mathew!" Stella worriedly rushed up to them too and grabbed her lover's arm.
"Mr. Mathew still seems to have not learned manners and Netherian customs." Keith lightly smiled, and the Heir Frost, who had realised that he better not stay here any longer, immediately bowed to them.
"My apologies if my action has come out as rude. It was not my intention." And with that, he grabbed his companion's hand and walked away to the corner where his future mother-in-law was sitting.
Five days ago, a piece of news shocked the city when they learned that Mathew was engaged to Stella Stone, whom they learned was the daughter of the famous Valaena Ford from her first and secret marriage.
The Ford Family was a very wealthy Family from the Denzel City of Oldwyn Province, and Valaena Ford was the current president of the Ford Enterprise. Her older brother, the head of the Ford Family, Hayden Ford, served as the Deputy Governor of Oldwyn Province. Therefore, they were quite powerful too.
This was the only reason why Javier was tolerating the presence of Mathew at his party. Valaena Ford decided to bring her son-in-law with her, and it would have been rude to her if they refused to let him enter the hall.
Her intentions were clear too. She wanted to break the ice between Mathew and their business circle after what had happened in the last few weeks. However, it was not going to be so easy.
"What happened?" Javier turned to look at his younger sister and asked.
"He tried to grab Amira's hand," Zoey told him, and the people around them frowned as they looked at Mathew, who was happily chatting with his mother-in-law.
They could not understand how a business-minded woman such as Valaena would ever accept a pathetic man as her son-in-law. It just did not make sense to them.
However, Keith knew the reason behind it, and he had a curious smile on his face.
Mathew had been feeling confident again in the last few days, and he had used the Ensnaring Perfume on Valaena. Though things had not progressed too far between them, it was quite clear from the way she looked at him with smiling eyes that she looked at him as a man she felt attracted to.
It was only a matter of time before she would jump in his bed, and Mathew would be able to secure financial help because of her.
"Please excuse us." He lightly said, and the people around them hurriedly apologised before dispersing.
"His intentions were not good," Amelia whispered when they sat together, and he chuckled at her sharp intuition.
"I know." He nodded and poured himself some wine.
Keith could see that Mathew was scared.
The poor Child of Destiny was scared that he would fail more System Quests and would be deprived of those lucrative rewards.
He had been searching for the whereabouts of Maria, and he had been searching for ways to approach Amira and Reina in the last few days, ready to face the consequences that would come with it.
His boldness disappointed Keith, but it was also understandable that he did not want to bear more penalties and lose more rewards.
It was just about time. He was getting bored of this Child of Destiny, and since more fun awaited him elsewhere, he now wanted to get done with Mathew as soon as possible.
"System, show me Mathew's Fate Value."
{Subject: Mathew Frost.}
{Fate Value: 1325}
Keith was pleased with himself when he looked at the Fate Value that Mathew had left on him.
All he needed to do now was make the man lose another Quest or make him lose Fate Value in another way, which should bring his Fate Value to the halfway point of his initial Fate Value.
And it was not going to be hard for him.
He glanced at the Twins, and when Reina happened to meet his gaze, she brightly smiled.
"I am going to Turkey on Monday." He suddenly said, catching everyone's attention.
"What?" Zoey seemed at loss. "When will you be back?" And then immediately asked.
"Not sure. It could take over a month or two." He smiled at her.
Zoey simply nodded to him, lost in her thoughts, but the Twins seemed a little agitated.
They had been living together with Keith and Amelia for the last few weeks, and he kept his promise by teaching them how to cook. He also spent his time helping them improve their Violin skills, and unbeknownst to them, they had gotten a little too attached to him in such a short time.
"You are going too?" Reina sadly looked at Amelia.
"No. But I have to return to Sameran in a few days."
The rest of the evening was a silent affair, as Zoey, Amira, and Reina did not seem to be in the mood to talk.
"I am going to submit a transfer request to Sameran University." Zoey suddenly said as they exited the hotel.
"I will help you with the arrangements." Keith simply nodded to her words.
"Brother..." Reina called out to him.
"Don't worry." He patted her head. "You can stay here with your family. And if you are ever too bored, you can visit Amelia in Sameran."
The twins seemed relieved at his words.
Though they wanted to stay with him, they had already promised their mother that they would stay with her for another year.
"I will drop you home." He said to them and took the second car, leaving together with them.
"Do you have an important business to attention to?" Amira inquired on their way.
"Yes."
And his after deflated her mood.
"You better have improved your cooking skills when I return. Or there will be punishment."
"What punishment?" Reina playfully asked.
"You will get spanked." He smiled.
"We are not little girls, brother!" She stuck her tongue at him and then giggled.
"Well, you will get spanked anyway." He shrugged, not bothered that they took his words as a joke.
"Iseul will be going with you?" Amira asked, hoping that at least Iseul would stay with them.
They had found a great friend in her since they all loved anime, and they usually spent their nights binge-watching their favourite shows.
"Yes." He nodded.
"Why?" Reina pouted.
Keith chuckled, refusing to answer her question.
An hour later, an Aston Martin pulled on in front of the Goldsmith Manion, and then a pair of twins reluctantly exited it.
"No hugs?" Keith smiled as he stepped out of the car and watched the twins heading towards the gate. "I will be busy tomorrow."
"You said you were leaving on Monday..." Amira said and Reina pouted before the two walked up and hugged him.
Just when they were about to separate from him, he pulled Amira back in his arms and then leaned in to capture her lips.
Her eyes widened in surprise, but soon she was intoxicated with the taste of him and how good it felt to be kissed.
"Good night." He playfully smiled when he let her go, and nudge her nose to bring her out of her daze.
"G-good night!" She stammered before she immediately ran up to the gate of the Mansion.
"Want one too?" Keith playfully asked Reina, who was still standing in her place, fidgeting a little.
"Mhm.." She timidly nodded her head and he chuckled before he pulled her into his arms.
The moment their lips met and she tasted him, her body leaned more in his embrace, going soft.
"More..." She demanded when they separated, tiptoeing to reach his lips, and Keith listened to her.
After another kiss lasted a good few minutes, he tapped her head, bringing her out of her dazed state, and then ushered her to run inside her home.
"Good night, brother!" She happily waved her hand at him and then caught up with her sister, who was waiting for her at the front porch.
The two sisters blushed when their eyes met, and then they entered their house, holding each other's hand.
Keith stayed looking at the Mansion for a minute. He could have taken the girls to bed and made Mathew lose his quests, but he wanted to Child of Destiny to suffer in another way.
As soon as he got back in the car, he picked up his phone and dialled Iseul's number.
"Yes, Senpai?"
"Let's hunt tonight."

Should we expect 2 chapters per day or a mass release in order to reach the monthly target? Looking forward to the finale of this story arc 😁😁

He probably wouldn't call Iseul for NTR - personally I expect torture in order to brand to Matthew's soul how powerless he is 😁😁

What would he do? NTRing him with his mother-in-law? I will bet on that.
