Alexis turned her attention as she saw the former Slifer from the corner of her eye. Her eyes widened like saucers now that Jaden was exposed to everyone.

The blonde called out "Jaden!" making the Slifer realize that his parents were right there.

Serenity turned her direction to where Alexis was looking at and gasped. "Jaden..."

"Jaden...?" asked Seto, turning his attention.

"You know him?!" Mr. Rhodes asked.

Jaden's eyes widened. "M-Mom?! Dad?!"

Mr. Rhodes dropped his wine glass onto the ground, as his lips shivered. His eyes were pupiless as he felt his tall body stiff up. "Did you just say... mom... dad?!" the older man asked.

Jaden backed away a bit as he sweated lightly. "I-I... uh..."

"Jaden!" Serenity cheered as she greeted her son in a hug. Jaden stood shocked, but then slowly returned the hug, feeling glad yet nervous of what was going to happen next. Tears ran down her cheeks as she felt ecstatic about seeing her beloved boy again.

"M-Mom... please don't cry..." Jaden comforted softly as he kept her in his embrace.

Serenity dabbed her tears and looked up to Jaden. "Oh my sweet, strong young man... I just missed you so much." she whispered.

Jaden gave a warm smile. "You too... mom..."

The two released each other and Jaden faced the Kaiba CEO. Seto and Jaden stared at each other before the Kaiba patriarch extended a hand towards him.

"Good to see you... son." said Seto.

Jaden smiled at him, causing a rare smile to appear on Kaiba's lips. "You too..."

Alexis smiled at the small family reunion while Mr. Rhodes stood there surprised. The guy he was wanted to get rid of was actually loaded with cash, even more so than the Rhodes family themselves. He would be perfect for his daughter now, at least according to Mr. Rhodes.

"By the way, this is my fiancé." Jaden introduce, as he held Alexis' hand.

Serenity gasped. "So you're... my boy's fiancé..." the auburn haired woman whispered. "So you were the young woman he spoke about..."

Alexis shook her head and released his hand. "Actually, Mrs. Kaiba... we're not really engaged..."
