New Life : A Second Chance

Chapter 808 - The Plan

Chapter 808 - The Plan

Back to Country Tz, in another part of town, Beatrice observed Yuri that was sitting across of her.

True to their word, one of them would come to pick her up each day and she'd go and have a dinner date with who it was that came. Today, it was Yuri's turn.

Beatrice could no longer deny the fact that she did have strong feelings for the twins. It had been 'I am interested' and 'let's date' at first, but now, she found herself to be extremely possessive.

When she thought about it, it had perhaps already been there from as way back as when she met Grandpa Anton for the first time. The first hint, that is, since she got annoyed at the two girls.

"Yuri," Beatrice called out to him, "Has the matter with those girls been settled?"

Yuri didn't need to ask who she was referring to and he tilted his head a bit, sighing while asking, "Have they contacted you in any way?"

Beatrice shook her head.

"Zack and I have already made our stance clear to them," Yuri told her, "To leave you and Grandpa Anton alone and that we aren't interested in them at all."

"But?" Beatrice prompted, seeing the slight hesitation in his eyes.

"They seemed to take it," Yuri replied slowly.

"But you don't quite believe that they'll let it go?" Beatrice said, helpfully finishing the sentence while looking at him with a slight frown.

Yuri quickly reached out and grabbed her hand, looking at her apologetically, "I know that this is not satisfactory …"

Beatrice pulled her hand a bit, freeing it from Yuri's grasp as she continued eating, interrupting him, "If you know it, then why?"

Yuri sighed, retracting his hand, "They haven't done anything to indicate that they have not accepted what we said. They're still family, so making a move on them without reason would only backfire on us."

Beatrice nodded in understanding, and acknowledge his point but pointed out, "That may be so, but it could be too late should they make a move."

Yuri's face suddenly went cold, his eyes narrowing and his demeanor changed. Beatrice did not notice this as she was focused on the food on her plate.

"If they dare harm even a single strand of hair on your head, they'll be dead," Yuri said nonchalantly, while he gripped his cutlery a little bit too hard as he thought of the possibility.

They had already set people to secretly monitor the movements of the two girls. Including having their men trail Beatrice to protect her. Nitocris had allowed them to use their resources, so they did.

Word was also put out that Beatrice was not a mark that anyone could take.

They had done what they could to protect their beloved, but it still rubbed them the wrong way that they couldn't just eliminate the two girls as a precautionary measure. If they weren't family, they would have long been 6 feet underground … or at the bottom of the ocean.

Beatrice's hands stilled for a second when she heard Yuri, for she felt that Yuri meant that literally. She looked up at him, only to see that he appeared normal and she thought she must have imagined it.

"Are you sure about this, Stella?" Bella asked her sister for the umpteenth time.

Stella rolled her eyes and, using her pointer finger, poked her sister's forehead and pushed it hard, saying, "You want to back off now?"

Bella rubbed her forehead, saying, "Zack seemed pretty serious when he warned us off."

"So?" Stella snorted, "He's always serious."

"No, he's not," Bella said, "He's the playful one. Yuri is the serious one. I can't believe you still don't know this! And you know, Yuri may not have said much but …"

Stella waved her hand in front of her face, saying, "They wouldn't dare do anything to us. After all, we're family."

"That may be so, but they have never warned us like this before," Bella said, her voice a bit low as she hesitated.

Bella was the type that tended to follow her stronger sister, Stella, and this was the first time she was going against her. No, not so much the first time as Stella wasn't that unreasonable.

Bella could give her opinion and say if she doesn't agree on something that they were going to do, but this was the first time she actually kept on at it. Normally, she would give her opinion once, and if Stella disagreed, she let it go.

"Look, have I ever been wrong? Or led you astray?" Stella said in a huff, crossing her arms across her c.h.e.s.t.

Bella shook her head reluctantly, for Stella was right.

So far, none of the things she had planned and done, had a bad result. In other words, she was always right.

That's how they managed to get the twins in the first place. Including getting rid of the more problematic flies that hung around them. The ones that seemed to want to hang on, that is.

Though there were the occasional one … or two … that they were especially annoyed at and had eliminated before the twins hooked up with them. They knew what sort of girls the twins tended to approach, so this Beatrice had been a total surprise.

She had side-swiped them completely.

And even until now, they didn't know which of the twins she was seeing.

They did know that she was picked up by a Dante twin everyday, but since it was one of them, they couldn't tell who it was. It was hard enough to tell them apart when they were together, but it was impossible to know when they were apart.

"So it's settled," Stella said.

Bella had no choice but to agree, despite the nagging doubt in her mind.

"The first step is to try and create discord between them," Stella said, repeating the plan that she had come up with, "If that fails, only then will Rudy make a move."

"But we haven't managed to even make a move on her yet," Bella said in exasperation, "She's always either in the office, or at home - and she's always escorted by either Zack or Yuri."

Stella rolled her eyes at Bella, "Such a small hiccup and you're already being so anxious? It's easy. If she won't come out, then we go in."

Bella was enlightened.

"You have people in there?" Bella said in surprise, "I'm impressed. The Smith Building's security is so tight that no one can infiltrate in!"

Stella just gave a smug look although in reality, she did not have such a person inside. Not yet, anyway.

Bella looked at Stella, who had that creepy look on her face.

"What did you do this time?" Bella asked, having this sense that the situation was not as simple as Stella made it out to be.

"Well…." Stella began, her lips curling up to a smile, "He said he'd do it, but only if …"

Bella had a bad feeling about this.

"... well, if you sleep with him," Stella finished the sentence.

"What?!" Bella said, aghast, "Are you insane?! Why me? Why not you?!"

Stella shrugged.

"He likes you, not me," Stella replied, looking indifferent.

"Stella," Bella hissed, "I will not. Think of something else."

Stella shrugged again, saying, "It was the only option. It's fine if you don't want to. We'll just let Zack be taken in by that vixen."

"Don't try and fool me," Bella replied, "We don't even know that it is Zack that she is with. It could be Yuri."

"It could," Stella said, "But I doubt it. I mean, just look at that woman. She's so boring. I don't think my Yuri would ever be interested in such a girl."

Bella wanted to refute that but she thought that Stella had a point.

Yuri was too serious and Beatrice was rather boring. Zack was more playful and thus, more likely to be the one that took a fancy to her.

But she was still not reconciled over the matter.

"I can't believe that you'd agree to the condition. You think I'm so cheap as to just sleep around?!" Bella hissed.

Stella tilted her head and looked at her, saying, "If sleeping with him is the only way to make him do this, and make sure he leaves her, I would do it in a flash. Using Rudy is highly risky and this is the safer option."

"Why is it the only way? Why can't there be another option? Why .."

"Fine if you don't want to," Stella cut her off, "No skin off my nose if you don't want to. I don't think it's my Yuri, so I'm not really bothered."

Bella shook her head, standing her ground.

"If it is Zack that she's seeing, I agree," Bella said, "If it's not, then forget it."

"Alright, deal," Stella replied.
