Vandetta's End

CHAP.52

Tzuyu and Leonardo reached the Mansion and Leonardo seemed very excited. Tzuyu was happy seeing her father like this and she was smiling too. When they got inside, they saw all of the residents of the mansion and a stranger, sitting in the lounge, probably waiting for Leonardo.

Leonardo went forward and all of them stood up on seeing him.

"Master! We are happy to have you here with us again." said Charles and Leonardo passed him a smile. Seulgi immediately came towards her father and hugged him tight. Seulgi needed her father very much at these dark times and she was happy that he was here now.

"Welcome back! Papa." said Seulgi.

"I am happy to be back, Seulgi. And I missed all of you." said Leonardo with a smile etched on his face.

"Papa. I am so glad that you came back. Like you, I also have something very good to tell you and I am sure that you'd be so much happy." said Chaeyoung.

"You do seem very happy, Chaeyoung. Let's discuss all of it at breakfast. I will go to my room and freshen up a bit. And you three, aren't you going to greet papa?" said Leonardo while looking at Irene, Jennie and Sana. Hearing this the three of them went and hugged leonardo.

"We missed you, Papa." said the three. Leonardo smiled and then talked to Anne a bit. He went to the strange yet familiar person.

"And you are?" asked Leonardo. Y/n was feeling intimidated yet she managed to speak.
"I am Y/n, Mr. Castillo." Leonardo was confused and was going to say something when Seulgi interrupted.

"Papa, Y/n is our sister, a part of our family. She came like two weeks ago. She is Victoria's daughter." Leonardo was shocked and he had no words.

"But she is dead and I though that my child was dead too. I can't believe all this. But if what you are saying is true then Y/n why didn't you come earlier. I always regretted that I wasn't able to save her and you. You have grown into such a gorgeous person." said Leonardo and hugged Y/n. Y/n for the first time in her life, felt the warmth and love of a parent which she had never felt. She never wanted to let go. She felt so vulnerable yet strong, and without her knowing a tear escaped her eye and trailed down her cheek.

"I didn't know that you were my father. I asked Carlo once that why he hated you and me. He told me everything with hatred in his eyes and shot me. I don't know how I survived but I made it and I am happy that I did. At least, now I am with my Papa and my real family." said Y/n.

Leonardo smiled at her and then went to his room.

The morning sun streamed through the large windows of the Castillo family dining room as they all gathered for breakfast. The long, polished table was set with an array of dishes, from freshly baked pastries to tropical fruits and steaming coffee. Seulgi, Tzuyu, Chaeyoung and Y/n sat at one end, while their wives, Irene, Sana, and Jennie, joined them, the atmosphere filled with warmth and anticipation.

Leonardo, having just returned from his trip, stood at the head of the table, a proud smile on his face as he looked at his daughters and their spouses. "I have good news, my beloved family."

"We have been dying to know that papa. Tell us now." said Seulgi.

"Yes, I will. And Seulgi, I want you to know that I know everything and you need not to worry as long as I am alive. I guarantee you that within a month everything will be back to its original place. and the Castillos will be back in business." said Leonardo.

"And the news is that, I have made some very powerful allies, more stronger than the Gambinos or the Voss. You guys must have heard the name of the Jeons and Kims. Their leaders Jeon Jungkook and Kim Taehyung will be here in a day or two and all you guys have to do is to make the best strategy. We are not going to give them even a moment to stabilize. We are going to attack as soon as possible. And we do not have even a second to spare." said Leonardo.
