When the four entered the premises, acting like proper ladies and gentlemen, much to Amura's comfort, she immediately approached a group to conversate with.

"Hi! I'm Isabella Ramos, you probably don't know me but I'm sure you all knew my Aunt and Uncle that would not be able to come this time..." Amura introduced herself with her Mother's name to the guests.

An innocent smile on her face while she chuckled, "Oh! Juanito and Merci was your relatives." A guest realized.

Which are her actual Grandfather and Grandmother.

"Yes, they didn't know I was here so I would love it if you would keep it a secret... I badly wanted to surprise Uncle Reggie." She whispered to them while Five and the others took a glimpse at her direction.

Amused at how she easily mixed herself with the crowd.

"I thought he hated children." This earned a raised eyebrow from a woman.

"Children that are too dumb and naïve for the world... But I am much different than those snot-nosed kids. Would you believe that I'm currently in study of time travel and spatial travel with Sir Reginald?" The girl in a simple black cocktail dress smirked.

"He never spoke a word about you though..." Amura playfully rolled her eyes at the man who stated that.

"That Uncle Reggie of mine is quite embarrassed to be working with... As you all just stated earlier, a 'child', he's building a reputation of a child hater. Though I'm here to ruin it." She stated with a wink and this earned a laugh from the group.

And this convinced the guests around her that she was indeed an exception, amused at the girl's knowledge.

"Now if you'll excuse me, I would like to know where he is, I happen to have some things to discuss with him."

"I think we saw him leave to go upstairs, leaving Grace all alone." This perked Amura's attention.

"Grace?"

"Why yes."

"Poor girl, she shouldn't be all alone in a marvelous party like this." She stated shaking her head while the others agreed.

She looked around to look for her companions and spotted Five gesturing for her to come.

"Well then, thank you for your company ladies and gentlemen... I will take my leave." She politely told them and left the circle.

Approaching the four and taking the glass of champagne out of Five's hand, placing it on the table earning a sigh from him.

"Any news?" Diego asked.

"Reginald was last spotted upstairs, leaving Grace, his date... All alone." She told them softly.

"Grace?" The man asked, shocked.

"Yes... Your Mother, specifically right there." The girl pointed to the beautiful blond woman in black and white dress.

The taller Hargreeves was about to leave, to approach his Mother but he was stopped by Five, "Diego, try not to do anything too stupid."

"We got the upstairs." Amura stated before Five dragged her by the hand.

Diego leaving Lila to approach his future mother.

And the woman stood there looking at their retreating backs before she left to do whatever she wished to do.

"Isabella!" This stopped the two teens on their way up the stairs.

"Hi! What is it that you need good Sir?" She asked when she turned around to find a young man.

About 20 or so, blond and tall and have a cocky attitude radiating through his branded suit.
