Arranged Marriage: Dangerous Heiress

 After the exhausting days of planning, it\'s finally the Holiday Gala that is usually held a week before December. Elite people are gathered for the auction and funding. The commotion about Moira as a mistress back then is still up and they kept firing her. The media knew well that Moira isn\'t the mistress, but they wanted to know about the side.

 Expensive cars are lined up and they are the most VVIP in the gala. First, that came is Freya and Steven. Followed by Stanley and Luna.

​​

 Then, the twins, Rhys and Raiden followed and smiled at the cameras and winked.

 Next are Moira and Alanis. Cameras focused on them. At the entrance, lots of reporters asked about them.

"How do you feel about the news, Mrs. Wilson?"

 Alanis possessively held Moira\'s waist.

"What news?" Moira asked.

"The news about your past?" The report is surprised.

"Oh, that?" Moira scoffed. "Al-babe, is it true?" Moira asked Alanis. Alanis is neutral as always and he smirked.

"I never love anyone but you," Alanis said and looked at her lovingly. "I might\'ve lots of lovers that always come in and out before I met you. But I never take you as the other woman. If you are my mistress, then you are the only Mistress and wife in my heart."

"Damn, when did you get that cheesy?" Moira chuckled and faced the report. "Well, the person that probably said bluff about me is from our past. Good luck to that person. I knew that person is just bored because he or she wasn\'t satisfied with the relationship that they had. That\'s why they are coming after me."

"What about your children? Do your children get slandered?"

"No. My children didn\'t care about such things. Besides, if they slander my children, I think they are after their death wish." Moira said with a smirk.

"Miss, I just want to warn those people out there you keep slandering my wife and family. They shouldn\'t try to provoke us. That\'s all." Alanis smiled neutrally, but the report and the cameraman seemed to shudder by it.

 Moira waved at them and they go inside. Then, there\'s Andromeda and Zachary. They just walked in the aisle and they are like celebrities as paparazzi\'s and reports called their name to looked at them.

 Andromeda glanced at them with her usual poise and she turned back and face the front. Following up on them are Sabrina and Gabriel. Gabriel is like Andromeda. He doesn\'t like much of reporters, but he let some business magazines to interview him.

 Andromeda is wearing the usual Dragon Brooch while Zachary is wearing the usual Lion Brooch. They walked inside and sign on the board.

"I guess our kids will also mingle around," Sabrina mumbled. She doesn\'t usually speak on the crowd but when the family is around, she speaks to them.

"Yup." Andy watched as Timothy come out from Zendaya\'s Jaguar and he walked around to open the door for Zendaya and helped her up. She smiled at him and thanked him.

 Timothy grinned and gently put her hand to the crook of his arm. The reports and cameras focused on them and Timothy only smile as Zendaya wear her usual expressionless face in front of them, but every time that they looked at each other, Zendaya would show herself to Timothy.

 Athena scoffed just behind them. She approached them.

"I need to go inside first," Athena told them. Athena walked fast inside, signed her name, and then, she approached her mother and father, and take champagne, and sipped on it.

"Mr. De la Fontaine!" They called. He only smiled at them and nodded as they went inside.

 They signed their names and Timothy possessively put a hand at Zendaya\'s waist covering her from them.

"You look so beautiful," Timothy mumbled.

"I know. But I dislike seeing that Emma in here." Zendaya mumbled to him.

"Babe, I nearly got raped." Timothy kissed her cheek and lead her to their seat. He pulled a chair for her and she sat down and put her purse over the table. "You need to save me again if ever I got raped by two Emma\'s." He grinned at her. She giggled and reached his face.

"I will kill them both if they lay a hand on you again," Zendaya said it low, keeping that forced smile for him. Her face indeed gets sour seeing Emma number two. Slash the business partner of the café.

 Christian canceled the contract and pay her enough compensation. 

 Dmitri and Agatha came a little late, but they had joined the auction. 

Zachary is the speaker. Lots of people adore him and since he\'s the King of technology, everyone praised him.

 Zendaya is proud of her father. So is her mother. Her mother is a very supportive wife to Zachary. She\'s there at every party that he attended. She helped him with the clothes and stuff. She\'s six years old back then when her father told her that he\'s the luckiest man alive in the whole universe.

 It sounds magical so he asked him.

"Really, why is that?" 

"Because, of your mom and now, you are the reason too," Zach told her. "Plus, your siblings." 

"Hmm, mom is so busy." 

"Your mom always prepared my suit every day. If she needs to go away, she will set it for the whole two weeks. Your mom is a tough woman. She protects us more." He winked. "That\'s why I\'m lucky." 

 In exchange for all her care for them, her father would always make a good invention to protect her mother. Pattinson\'s goal is to always give a great invention to protect the agents. And Zachary is the ruler of it. He made sure that Andromeda is always safe wearing his inventions.

 After Zachary\'s speech, he thanked them, and he went back to his seat and smiled at his wife. Andy always smiled up at her husband. He would bend closer and murmur to her ear and she would giggle and covered his mouth.

 Zendaya had seen these many times every time that they will be in a formal party like this. Every time that Zachary would do his speech. From the Annual Party of the Company and other stuff.

 Nathaniel looked at the messages. Yup. The girl just ditched him. He guessed that she won\'t ever respond to him anytime. So, he drove his car although its late to the gala. His father and mother arrived there before it starts so he guessed that girls would keep breaking his heart because he looked poorer than them.

 He and Natalia don\'t care about expensive clothes or such things. They usually wore usual clothes like Levi, Penshoppe, and other cheap brands but with good quality. They will only wear designer clothes when they will be in a very important event like a gala.

 He already put up something that he would auction. His sister didn\'t want to go, she\'s too lazy to fix herself. She said that she rather stayed at Cyra\'s laboratory and re-create few things on the microbots that they are making.

 He stopped his car on the red carpet, and the valet immediately came up to him. The valet opened the door for him, and he hopped out in a very graceful way. He gave the valet a tip, and then, he walked to the almost empty red carpet and just walked there. This is what he like most. No flashing of cameras. He signed his name and he walked inside while fixing his coat and his brooch.

 He went to his seat beside Zendaya, and Zendy pressed her lips.

"Guess that they are busy," Zendaya said. Nathaniel shrugged. "Okay, big bro. You\'ll rule the Dragon Company, and I think you need to fix yourself more."

"Zendaya. I don\'t want to be facing cameras." Nathaniel picked a small cupcake and bring it to his mouth. He chewed it as the matcha explodes to his mouth.

"You should start with the appetizer first."

"Nah, I\'m good." Nathaniel shook his head.

"Nate, you are going to drink." His mother Natasha told him. He nodded and drank water instead.

 His phone chimes, and it\'s his ex-girlfriend. He ignored it. Yup. He had a girlfriend, and they dated for two months. Then, he found out that she forgets about their date and she is dating someone else at that moment. Now, she\'s sending pouty crying face, trying to look cute. It\'s cute but, he\'s now disgusted.

"Poor you," Zendy mumbled, and she chuckled as she sipped on her wine.

"Stop it, Zendaya." Nathaniel shook his head. "Two girlfriends in a year," Nathaniel mumbled.

"The other one is as crazy as psycho," Zendy commented.

"Yes," Nathaniel stood. "Excuse me."

 He went to the bathroom to wash checked the messages. Zendaya would never stop teasing him. He checked it, and he exhaled as he sent the photo of her and her rich boyfriend directly to his girlfriend.

Nate: I\'m sorry. I don\'t want to be part of your collections.

 Nathaniel blocked her. He washed his hands and dried it. He heard the crushing of glasses just nearby, and he came out to see the poor waitress picking the glasses as a man in suit kicked the glass to her directly.

"Stupid."

 Nathaniel exhaled and approached the girl.
