I...

In the morning. A few hours before Benedict's 12th birthday. Hacienda Ricardo.

Richard Armani was hell-bent on working on his desk while finalizing a few things before he spends the weekends with Benedict and not think about his corporate duties. He was multi-tasking, talking to Amy while reviewing contracts. His mind was occupied with mathematics and a few complicated issues when he felt the door of his office open. He knew it wasn't Benedict again who kept on insisting that he wanted to go mountain climbing and camping with his friends. He already told him that he will advise him of his decision in a few days. Rainbow Lee has been wearing this new perfume that she had been modeling for an exorbitant brand from the UK. Yes, that's his most celebrated, runway, editorial, and commercial international model youngest sister. The most expensive paid fashion icon in the world. But when she's with the family, she's just bratty Rainy to them.

He didn't acknowledge her and he kept his silence. Part of him though got curious at what this little wicked needs from him when she knows that he's busy. He kept his head low, signing a document when he felt her slowly approaching the sofa situated in front of his desk. His sister wasn't saying anything as well while she forcefully seated herself on the couch as if this will get his attention. He deliberately ignored her. He's busy. If this sibling wishes to annoy another person in the palace, this isn't the time that she does this to him.

Then, he heard his sister grunted loudly while she pulled her phone to watch Netflix. Richard Armani's eyebrows met in the middle. This child that belongs to Olivia Jean was born to antagonize his life. The palace has hundreds of rooms and she chooses to watch it here while he works his ass off?

He moved his eyes to watch his sister for a few seconds. The troublemaker has already had her hair done by her makeup artist with curlers on them. What's her problem now? He shook his head and spoke while he attended to the documents again.

" Whatever it is that you need, you can begin talking now. I am occupied. "

" I doubt that. It is you who needs something from me, Kuya. "
