Arranged Marriage: Dangerous Heiress

Chapter 581 - New Pregnancy Part 2

        Esme pouted as she looked at her baggy shirt. It's adorable and she like shirts. It's Hogwarts that she bought in second hand. Why doesn't Laurence like it?

"Why are you pouting?" Laurence asked. "It's not like I scolded you?"

        Esme sighed.

"Eat now. You are so thin." He suddenly heard the car and then pointed her plate. "I think it's mom. You need to eat."

        He finished his omelet in just a few scopes of spoons. Then he drank water.

"Baby's coming!" He said looking excited. She also followed him, and they went to the living room to meet the baby.

        Esme saw a bright smile from Ash and Percy as they entered with baby bags and Ash is holding the baby. Ash sat down to show the baby.

"Wow," Laurence said. "How would you know if he's handsome?"

"You'll know as he grew up." Percy smacked his back. "Did you guys eat your breakfast?" He asked.

"Esme made an omelet and I think one plate is too little for me," Laurence told. "Let's eat again."

        Percy shook his head.

"Okay, prepare the table." Percy nodded.

        Laurence and Esme prepare the tables and their maids also had prepared the breakfast. Esme made another omelet and then the maids also had frittata. She gave the new omelet to Laurence.

"Thanks, sissy," Laurence said and then he went to the living room. Percy and Ash are too occupied with the baby as the baby smiled at them.

"Breakfast is ready." He told.

        They stood and Ash doesn't want to let go of the baby.

"Do you want me to take that?" Laurence creased his brows.

"What do you mean 'that'?" Percy asked.

"The baby."

        Percy smacked his arm.

"Don't call your brother 'that'!"

"I'm sorry. It's to eat."

        They went to the table and Ash gently put down the baby on the crib.

"Mommy's going to eat breakfast, okay?" She turned on the crib mobile as it started playing and turning like a carousel.

        Percy pulled a chair for her and she sat down couldn't take her eyes off the baby.

"Love, please eat first." Percy kissed her top head. "You'll have all of your time to him, later."

"Okay." Ash nodded.

        Then she looked down at the food.

"Wow, you made this?" Ash asked Esme. Esme nodded. Percy and Ash take a spoonful of omelet and they nodded. "It's really good." She told.

"Thank you."

"So, dinner tonight? Everyone will gather and alcohol isn't prohibited to 18 years old and above."

"Tsk." Percy shook his head. "Ready your school stuff. I'll drop you off tomorrow."

"I can drive," Laurence said. "Or you can just send me a driver."

"Hmm. That's not going to happen." Percy said.

"How about Esme?"

        Percy glanced at Esme.

"Your mom and I will drive her to the academy."

"So, you are going to drive me earlier—like three hours before or something?"

"We will use the chopper, then," Percy said.

        Laurence exhaled.

"Yup, we will do that."

"Dad that's time-consuming," Laurence argued.

        Percy sighed.

"You know, we have a new baby boy and I am just making sure that I had enough time with you."

"Dad, I am completely fine. I am an adult.???

"You are just eighteen—"

"What I mean is, I am old enough and it's fine that you both are taking care of a baby and Esme. It's completely fine with me."

"How sweet of you." Ash smiled.

"Mom, let's just eat." He mumbled.

"So, at five we need to get to Grandpa's house and Laurence, you'll help your sister with her computer and other stuff. She needed to have a number immediately and tracker. She can't leave without a tracker." Percy told.

"What tracker?" Esme asked.

"Well, each of us has a tracker and it's only accessible to people who could only access it. It's highly encrypted so, only people who have access to it can only know your location. That also includes us. Just in case you got lost or got kidnapped."

        Esme nodded.

"Just stick still with our security protocol and you'll be fine," Laurence told and she nodded.

        After their breakfast, they had a little time with baby Zayne and Laurence goes back to his room to take a bath and put his shorts on and then t-shirt. He opened his computer and started it. He started making a new number that's only registered to their family. So, their phone number wills tart with (*) and two zeroes.

        He registered the sim card number and then he also put a tracker to it. He took the card and went to her room. He knocked but she didn't answer.

"Esme?" He knocked again and then Esme opened the door with still wet hair but she's fine wearing a t-shirt that could actually fit and then denim short. "Can I come in?"

"Yes." She opened the door wide and let him in. He walked directly to her swivel chair and took her phone.

        Esme sat on the chair and watched him.

"That's the sim card?"

"Yup."

"You didn't buy it outside?"

"No." He shook his head. "Come here." He waved at her. She stood and move closer to him. "So, these apps are made by our cousins and our family friends. This app is only for us and you can install more apps, but this phone has a high-security app that could detect if your phone has been tapped after you installed an app or if the app is highly dangerous."

"Wow." Esme just mumbled. "I never heard of some phone."

"Did you have a phone before?"

"Yes, I sell it for mom's chemo." She said casually.

"Oh. Okay, now you don't have to sell anything because your daily allowance is about 50K per month."

"What?" Esme stopped.

"Yes. When we are in Empire Academy our daily allowance is 100K that includes our daily food and whatever we need and whatever we need to buy. We can entire our Empire stores, but you have to buy what's there, and we are not allowed to have VIP treatment."

"I think it's easier that way."

??That's because even our family owns the business, we still need to buy what's in there with our own money. Since you are staying with mom and dad, your allowance will be probably at fifty-plus—that's thousand, okay?"

"Wow, what am I going to do with that money?"

"Buy whatever you want. But you need to have some savings." He winked.

        She sighed and checked the phone.

"You already have my number, dad's number, mom's number, and the Dragon Empire Security. If you are in trouble, they will contact you and check you out. You can contact them if you are in any danger and if your bodyguards are down."

"It's not a normal family," Esme said with a little smile.

"Yup. You'll see more in the gathering tonight."

He stood and offer the seat to her. She sat down and he opened her laptop over the table that has a magnetic charger that is like a mat.

"So, usually in school they use a laptop and just a little thing for notes and we haven't bought any school supplies. We'll go today. Do you know how to operate this?"

"A little." She answered.

"I'll teach you the basics." He glanced at the clock. "Mom and dad are busy with Zayne."

        He taught her a few things the way that they usually do in middle school and then, he told her to pick her cap and shoes. She did put her sneakers on and then a small bag for her phone and card that Ash gave to her.

        They went to the baby's room and knocked.

"Mom, Dad we are going to the bookstore for Esme's school supplies. Anything you wanted us to buy for baby Zayne?"

"No." Ash shook her head and looked down at baby Zayne as she feeds him.

"Well, okay."

"Drive safely," Percy told as he fixed the baby's crib.

"Sure."

        They went outside and one bodyguard followed them using a motorbike. He's driving one of his sports cars and of course, to spoil his little sister, he's driving a jaguar.

        He drove to the nearest bookstore which is close to their house. He parked his car and he opened the door for her. He took her wrist and pull her to the main door of the bookstore. Their bodyguard opened the door for them, and they entered, and the bodyguard followed them. Esme is not used to it and it was so casual to them.

        She kept her head low as some group of girls looked at their way. Laurence looked around to another section.

        Ash gently put down baby Zayne on the crib and she adjusts the rail up.

"Love, you don't feel good." Percy held her.

"I have been feeling dizzy these last few days." She mumbled.

"We need to see a doctor. Tomorrow? I??ll set up an appointment."

"I'm fine, I just need to nap. Watch over Zayne for me."

        Percy took her to bed and tuck her in. He kissed her forehead.

"I feel like eating something." She mumbled.

"What is it?" He asked.

"The Indian mango. Not ripe at all with shrimp paste."

        Percy creased his brows thinking about it. The last time that she asked such food is when she's pregnant with Laurence. Sat beside her and stroke her hair. He heard about women who get pregnant at the age of forty and above.
