Chapter 514 - Five Hundred And Fourteen: Neon Is Not My Brother

The third point of view:

Neon's heart began to pound so hard against his chest that he feared he might die of a heart attack. This was the first time he had to look his mother in the eyes at close quarters. Though she smiled, it was a faked sweet smile that sent shivers down his spine.

This was the first time mummy Reina was being mean towards him. She always adored him and right now, he couldn't help but wonder if she would stop loving him because of this. Neon knew his place in the family, he was just a boy being taken care of by Niklaus because he had no other family ever since his mom went crazy.

Neon passed an apologetic look in Ailee's direction and she knew that instant from his expression that they've lost. Unable to hide the truth anymore, Neon's lips trembled and he burst into tears,

"I'll tell you the truth, mother," He cried.

"Huh?" Reina was confused by his sudden reaction. Had she come on too strong enough to make him cry? Oh no, she hasn't intended to make him cry.

Because he had been hanging out with the twins, Reina had naturally assumed he'd be difficult like Ailee and Allen. But then, Neon was her cute, tender loving baby.

"Aww, please don't cry, my baby," Reina brought Neon into her arms and hugged him tight while the twins watched in shock, their jaws almost dropping to the ground. Who is this? They weren't sure this was their mother? Wasn't she the one who went full commando moments ago and currently was this meek-looking mother? Because of Neon?

No, this was oppression! Totally unfair! Allen began a protest in his heart.

Seeing the drama going on, Niklaus motioned to his men to release Julie and they let go of him immediately. However, their eyes were still on him having gotten instructions from Niklaus earlier that he wasn't to leave the residence - not that Julie knew yet.

Julie stood up with a groan, stretching his arms which were kind of sore and painful from their harsh grip. This was so humiliating, he had never been treated like this in his entire life - all because he wanted to sneak into his girlfriend's bedroom.

"Are you okay?" Anabelle came over to him, asking with a concerned look. Her uncle Niklaus had gone far this time but she couldn't interfere with his investigation.

"Yeah, I'm good. Don't worry...." he was still saying when Anabelle draped her arms around his neck and kissed him.

Julie was stunned, then smiled. Maybe it was worth going through that humiliating moment because he got blessed with Anabelle's unexpected kisses. It was well worth it.

Anabelle didn't care that people were watching her. She wanted people to watch because this kiss was to scorn Niklaus. Yeah, she was very, very pissed at him.

"Neon, baby, stop crying and talk to me. Mama's not going to hurt you, I promise you," Reina attempted to calm him down. She wondered what they had done wrong to make him this scared - she suspected this involved the twins.

Neon sniffed, clearing his eyes with the back of his hands. He didn't want to cry but he was so scared that Reina would not like him after this. What if she decides to send him to the orphanage or a foster home? He didn't want to leave here. He loved it here.

"Fine," Allen stepped forward grudgingly to confess after getting a push from his sister, to tell the truth, and stop Neon's tears - the scene was breaking her heart, "I'll tell you the truth,".

"What truth?" Niklaus folded his arms across his chest, eager to hear what the kids had been keeping from him. It seemed pretty serious.

"The truth is that...." Allen took a deep breath, "We've been sneaking into Ailee's room and sleeping on her bed," He finally confessed.

"What?!" Reina was stunned.

"Yep, pretty much that," now you're free to kill us, Allen added in his head.

"Why would you guys do that?" Reina couldn't understand her kids at all.

"Because her presence is no longer with me," He answered.

Niklaus frowned, "But you were the one who wanted her out of the room because of puberty. Didn't you say you needed your independence and separation from the other sex?" He asked him.

"Well, I lied. I made you send Ailee away out of spite," Allen slowly revealed.

"What?!" Everyone in the house was shocked, all except the triple trouble. Even Neon had stopped crying.

"You did what?" Reina asked this time.

"I intentionally made up that plan to separate Ailee and Neon," Allen further confessed.

"Alright, this keeps getting better. Where is my popcorn and soda," Isabella found the drama intriguing. Who knew her siblings were so much fun.

"What?" Reina was extremely dumbfounded. She had her hand on her heart asking, "Why would you do that, Allen? I thought you sincerely cared for your sister?"

"Because I was jealous. She gives Neon so much more time than she gives me. I'm her brother! Her twin!" Allen said emotionally.

"Well, I don't give you time because you're too mean to Neon and he's our brother as well,"

"No, Neon is not our brother!" Allen stood his ground, "He's is just someone mom took-"

"Allen!" Niklaus and Reina bellowed at the same time, furious. How could their son think that way? How long has this hostility been going on?

Neon's face fell. What had he been thinking, that he belonged here?

"Go downstairs," Niklaus commanded Allen, "Wait for me in the living room,"

"Dad, I -"

"Do it now!" Niklaus bellowed, there was not a single smile on his face.

Allen didn't push his luck, knowing his father was pissed and any more disobedience would aggravate the whole thing. He obeyed and went down.

Niklaus' gaze landed on Ailee, who stiffened. Why was her father looking at her that way? She hadn't done anything wrong - except accommodate them in her room.

"Join Allen down as well," He ordered her.

Ailee didn't say a word, having learned from her brother's mistake. She left without complaint.

"Now you," Niklaus finally came to Julie's case, "What were you doing sneaking around my house,"
