V busied himself promoting his brother's raffle give-away online even though Lisa didn't ask him to do so. He also felt excited about it so he was doing all this of his own accord. It was quite fun watching the prize pool increase as more people added to it.

His phone rang.

He answered the call. "What's up?"

"Alright, that's enough." It was his manager, Sejin. "CEO Manoban's give-away is starting to get out of control because of you. At this rate, you're going to make a mess of it instead of helping out. Have you forgotten about your status as a superstar? If you just like a post, it will end up in the headlines straight away. What more if you're being so active like what you're doing right now. Do you want to get into trouble with your brother? Stop playing around!"

"I'm not playing around!" V quickly defended himself. "But fine, I'll stop now. Tsk."

"Good. Don't sleep so late tonight. Remember that you have an early schedule tomorrow."

"I know, I know! Don't treat me like a little kid. Geez!"

"You're not a little kid so don't act like one! I'll see you tomorrow. Don't be late! Bye!"

V stuck out his tongue at his phone. "Hmph!"

He didn't feel sleepy anymore so he listened to music instead until they finally arrived at Dragon Palace Home #10.

His entourage helped him carry all the presents he brought for his brother's family. Most of the presents were for his newborn twin nephews but he didn't forget about Little Jun and the cats. His busy schedule didn't allow him to visit them all the time, hence he could only go all out whenever he had some free time.

"How's my twin nephews?" V asked the butler.

"Little Master Levi and Little Master Liam have grown a lot. They've become so much more adorable. Lately, their paternal grandmother has been saying that Little Master Levi resembles you a little when viewed from a certain angle especially when he smiles."

"Oh, Mom really said that?" V looked excited. "Hurry and bring me to them. I want to see!"

The butler smiled and sped up a little.

Finally, they arrived at a lounge room.

V rushed inside, unable to wait and see if one of his nephews really resembled him.

"Look who's here, my dear nephews! It's your coolest and most handsome uncle—"

His next words got caught in his throat when he saw a certain someone that he didn't really want to see (or so he kept telling himself).

"You! Why are you here?"

Chaeng's eyes flashed with displeasure. "You think you have the right to ask me that question? Is this your house?"

"This is my brother's house!"

She rolled her eyes and crossed her arms on her chest. "Whatever. I'm not gonna waste my saliva arguing with an unreasonable diva like you."

"Say that again! Who are you calling a diva?!"

"That's enough!" Chitthip glared at her youngest son. "How old are you? Why are you still acting so childish? And don't be so loud! Do you want to scare your nephews?"

V looked like he still wanted to fight with the annoyingly bossy woman but didn't want to continue angering his mother either. In the end, he could only temporarily withdraw but not before scowling at his opponent.

Chaeng snorted and ignored him.

"Hai, you two." Chitthip sighed and shook her head. "If you want to fight, do it somewhere else. Don't be bad examples to the children."

Chaeng straightened her back and lowered her head. "I'm sorry, Auntie."

"Hmph!" V refused to follow her lead but eventually quailed under his mother's cold look. "Fine, I'm sorry, okay?"

Chitthip might have a generally subdued personality but she was still a mother at the end of the day. Her sons had already grown up into adults but she could still flex her own innate weapon that all mothers possessed (a.k.a. the look of doom) to discipline them when needed.

Now that the argument between V and Chaeng was over (at least for now), Jennie finally welcomed her brother-in-law and showed off the twins.

"Would you like to hold one of them?" she asked.

V stepped back in a hurry and raised his hands up to stop her. "No way. What if I drop the baby? I'll just look, okay?"

Jennie chuckled and didn't insist anymore.

The eldest twin, Levi, was being carried by his father. Lisa teased his son with his finger. The baby waved his little mittened hands and kicked his little socked feet, thoroughly enjoying playing with his dada.

The other twin, Liam, was deeply asleep in his great-grandfather's arms.

Grandpa didn't give a whit about his surroundings anymore. All of his attention was on his adorable twin great-grandsons. The old man's booming voice was now rarely heard. Grandpa would deliberately lower the volume of his voice to avoid scaring his precious great-grandbabies. He could coo at the twins all day long if possible.

"I heard that you said that Little Mochi resembles me a little?" V asked his mother.

Chitthip's eyes lit up. "Oh, yes."

V looked at the baby in his brother's arms. He turned his head to the left and stared intently. Then he turned his head again to the right and pursed his lips.

"I don't see it, Mom. Little Mochi still looks like Sister Ruby, not me."

"No, you're standing too close!" Chitthip pulled him away until they could barely see the baby's face. "See? He looks like you now!"

V squinted his eyes but no matter how much he tried, he couldn't see it. Disappointment filled him.

Then Lisa poked his son's chin lightly. Little Mochi smiled.

"Oh!" V's eyes widened. It was just a flash but Little Mochi really resembled him a little when the baby smiled. "Wow! That's amazing!"

His disappointment melted away in an instant and was replaced by joy.
