My Ruthless Stepbrother (Completed)

CHAPTER 2

TWO: "Zack Lamont." ✍️

"SIR Zack is kind, too. It's just that he has a rebellious side and always seems to be angry. He has a high temper but he has a good heart. Surely, you will have no trouble being with them."

As we pulled up to the Lamont Resort's front entrance, I found myself speechless.

The car stopped at the parking area and Pako led us the way.

"Come straight in and sir Alanson Lamont is waiting for you both."

Mom nodded. "Thank you very much, Pako."

Mom and I entered. I couldn't help but be impressed by the scenery we drove through. The resort is spacious and well-kept. There are two large vintage ancestral houses, one with cabins, and a large hotel.

Finally, I could see the sea and hear its forceful waves, which appeared to entice my eagerness and longing to feel its salty water all over my body.

We could already see a few people waiting for us at the cottage not far away. A man who appears to be the same age as my mom, a man in his mid-twenties, and a girl who appears to be a few years younger than I am. They are probably the Lamont family.

Mom's boyfriend approached us and welcomed us with hospitality. She smiled as brightly as his.

"Fidelia, you're finally here." Happiness is evident in the man's voice.

"Yes, Alanson. Did we make you wait so long?"

"Not at all. You just arrived on time and we are currently preparing roasted seafood for our lunch," he replied and then he looked at me. "This must be your daughter, Fidelia?"

"Yes, Alanson. This is my only child—Irryn. Ryn, this is your uncle Alanson." Mom introduced us.

"Hello, hija. Nice meeting you," he greeted me cordially.

I smiled and nodded politely. "Hello, uncle. Nice meeting you, too."

"I'll introduce you to my children. I'm sure you'll easily get well along with them."

He led us to the cottage where his children were waiting for us. The guy in his mid-twenties was busy with the grills while the young girl was playing in the white sand of the beach.

"Kids, our guests are here. Come here and I'll introduce you to your auntie and your future stepsibling."

The two smiled with affability on us. They almost look like twins. A boy version and a girl version who looked the same. But anyway, I remember Pako said that uncle Alanson has three children? So, where's the other one now?

"Daddy, is she going to be my sister?" inquired the young girl.

"Yes, my child." Uncle Alanson nodded and chatted with his only daughter. "This is Irryn. From now on, I want you to call her your 'sister' and treat her the way you treat your older siblings, okay?"

"Okay, daddy!" Rhian answered hyperly and turned a sisterly hello to me. "Hi, Irryn! It's nice meeting you! Can we be playmates from now on? I want us to be really good sisters!"

Uncle Alanson and his eldest son exchanged heartfelt smiles. They were obviously pleased. I was feeling glad, as well.

I bowed down to level at Rhian's face. "Sure. Why not!"

"Yeah hey!"

"Enough, Rhian Agatha! Don't ever abuse your sister Irryn because she's kind!" Uncle Alanson joked around and he turned to me again. "This is my eldest son, Ryn. Rylan Luz or better known as Ryle. Ryle, this is Irryn and she will be your new sister."
