The situation right now is not a good time for her brother to mention what he had on mind, and normally, Anna would shut her mouth about it. But since she is in a very good mood, she will put her brother in a difficult situation.

"We can just have someone to send you to the airport tomorrow morning. So please, don't say a word at the moment." Aaron anxiously said to his little sister. 

From the moment Aaron saw Laenardo's expression, he can tell that Leonardo is not in the right to hear what he is gonna say to his mother. And if he thoughtlessly tells his mother about his plan, there is a high chance that Leonardo will harm him. After all, it is about Nathalia.

The argument between the twins went back and fort, and it's not hard for the rest of the people around them to not noticed what the twins are doing. With a frown plastered on her face, Mary spoke, "If you two are just gonna keep whispering to each other like that, then find someplace else to continue what you two are doing. Can't you see that the atmosphere around here is not suitable for whatever you two are doing?"

Usually, Mary would let it slide, however, this time she is not letting it slide. Her best friend is here by her side, fearing the outcome of his mother, and yet her two children are being disrespectful towards her best friend.

"Sorry, mother." Anna apologized. "It's just that Aaron has something to tell you and he wants me to help explain it to you. I know that we should consider the situation right now, but I'm in a hurry. I wanna go back to uncle Alfonso's house, so I can be ready for tomorrow." All in all, Anna is telling her mother that her brother is making things difficult for her. And being Aaron's good sister, Anna still decided to help out her brother.

"Aaron, you know that your sister is leaving for tomorrow and it's very convenient for her to stay at Alfonso's house to rest early for their flight. So why did you even have your sister to help you out?" Mary knows that whatever her son might say to her, she will agree to it. Of course, as long as it has good reason. But her son always has a good reason for it, so she is not that worried about it.

While cursing Anna in his head, Aaron answered his mother's question, "Because I know too well that you're not gonna allow me that is why I brought Anna along." With his sly of a smile plastered on his face, Anna can only shake her head in disbelief. Her brother is actually going to say it.

"Since when did I not allow you to do something?" There are times that Mary refuses to allow her son to do what he wants, but when he is serious, she at least thinks about it, then allows him. And right now, he seems to be serious, and she can't see herself refusing her son.

"Well, you will probably refuse him now," Anna said with a smirk, and that made Mary look at her soon with a confused look on her face. With that look on her daughter's face, Mary is having a feeling that this conversation is not gonna end good.

"Don't jinx me, Sister." Aaron knows that his sister is getting on his nerves on purpose and that he should not let it get it into him, but no matter how much resistance he has, he is getting irritated by it.

"I'm not jinxing you. I just meant that there is a high chance that our mother will refuse your request because of uncle Leonardo." Anna spoke in a matter-of-fact tone. Her brother is already at the stage of wanting to shout at her and force her to leave to the living room, but he knows that he should not do that or else, he would not be able to achieve what wants to complete.

"Huh? What does any of this have anything to do with me?" Leonardo asked with a frown on his face. He already has some troubles of his own, and yet these troublesome twins are involving him in some more troublesome matter that he does not need.

Before Anna could even say a word, Aaron spoke first. It is better if he's the one who speaks first because who knows what his troublesome sister might say to their uncle Leonardo. Things might not go according to what he wants. "I talked to Lannie earlier and suggested that I can come with her to visit her grandmother. I really think that she needed a friend at a time like this."

Marcus coughed, then he whispered to Arion, "You're son's bold." When it comes to Leonardo, it is known that talking about Nathalia means be careful about what you say. And right now, his grandson is not being careful at all. 

Even he can notice that there is a motive behind Aaron's words.

"I don't think that there is anything I can do to defend my son." Ever since their training started, Arion always reminds his son that he should not speak about Nathalia that could lead to a misunderstanding. And now, his son actually dared to not follow his words.

"For what reason does it have to be you to come to visit her grandmother with her?" Leonardo understands the point Aaron is getting at, but what he can't understand is that why does it have to be Aaron. There is Zen and Josh, those two have together with his daughter for so long and he has no reason to suspect those two because they are just being protective towards his daughter.

If it was Zen or Josh coming with his daughter, then Leonardo would not have the second guess and allowed it. But since the person who is requesting to come is Aaron, Leonardo has this particular feeling that he doesn't like.

"Nathalia refused at first and wanted someone else to come since she and my brother are not that close yet, but currently I'm not available and so is Josh and Zen, so in the end, I said that my brother is not a bad companion in these kind of situation." Since her brother is bad at making excuses, Anna would mind saying all these lies to her uncle Leonardo. Of course, what she is doing now is not for free, she will collect her brother's payment when she wants it.

As someone who raised Anna, Mary can see through her daughter's lies, but she decided not to let Leonardo know about it. And without a doubt, her daughter and son are planning something that mainly involves Nathalia. 'I can't believe my children are taking advantage of Nathalia's situation.' Mary can only sigh in disbelief.

After hearing that reasoning, Leonardo brush off his suspicion on Aaron and said, "Did Nathalia agreed to it?" As long as Nathalia agrees to it, Leonardo don't have any reason to disapprove of the twins' suggestion. Of course, since it is Aaron who is coming, it does not mean that Leonardo won't keep an eye on him.

"Well, she did say that if we got permission from our mother, then she'll agree." Aaron honestly said to Leonardo. He is somewhat relieved that there are at least one honest words he could say to Leonardo or else, he would feel guilty every time he sees Leonardo.

Leonardo glances at the person next to him and waited for her to answer Aaron. A small part of Leonardo is wis.h.i.+ng hard for Mary to not give her permission to her son. And he is sure that Mary is sensing that small part of him.

After giving some thoughts about it, Mary finally gave her an answer, "I don't see any problem with it. I guess you can go, but when you come back from that little trip of yours, you better catch up with all of your studies." 

She has no idea what kind of goal is her son is trying to achieve, but she wants to at least give him the chance to do. The only that she wishes for him is to not make her regret giving her permission.

"Of course! I don't plan on failing especially now that it is official I'm going to be the next heir of this family." As the official next heir of their family, failing his studies is out of the question. If he fails, then he will only bring shame on his family name, and that is not part of lists of goals.
