Taming A Billionaire

Chapter 421 - Four Hundred And Twenty-One: Family



The third point of view:

Apparently, Niklaus and his wife, Reina weren't the only couples around with a problem, Camille and Eden were in a similar situation as well.

"Don't tell me you're going?" Camille spoke to Eden with a lowered tone although there was enough noise at the moment to drown out their voices.

"What do you think?" Eden resorted, choosing to stare anywhere else but her face considering their impending dispute.

"Angela isn't even related to you nor are you truly a part of the Sakuzi clan. You don't have to go," Camille told him.

"Really?" Eden gave her an unbelieving look yet Camille didn't give up. 

"Take a look at Judy, he's not joining as well but rather providing assistance, why don't you do that as well?" she argued 

Eden frowned yet explained, "The only reason Judy is not attending is only that he's important a personality, everyone knows for sure that the Lincolnshire kingdom would not accept the news of their prince dying in some unrecognized war - if it comes down to that. Moreover," He added, "You claim I'm not a member of the Sakuzi clan, yet your best friend is the daughter of the head of the Sakuzi clan while my cousin, Niklaus is their son-in-law. So tell me, Camille, how am I not related?" 

Camille's mouth hung open, no words coming out of it knowing he was right. But then, she was worried for his sake neither was she ready to become a widow - she just got him, she was not losing him. But this was his choice and she had to respect that.

As if Eden understood her fears, he drew her into a comforting hug, clearing the hair from her face and tucking the others to the back of her ear, as he said, "Don't worry about me, I'll be fine,"

He went ahead to promise her, "This is something I was born to do and I have to do as the head of the Spencer clan. I might not have told you this but the Spencer clan is not far away from the sakazi's - we have our skeleton in the cupboard, although Niklaus would be in a much better position to explain that - but right now, a fellow clan is in trouble, I have to help. It is called doing business,"

By the time Eden was done, Camille knew she had been defeated. With this amount of explanation, the man has made up his mind already and there was little she could do to change it. 

"Fine," She finally gave in, "Just make sure to keep your promise of coming back alive," Camille rubbed her forehead against his affectionately as she said, "then maybe we can go for a baby," 

"What?" Eden must have heard wrong. For a moment there, he thought she heard her say, baby, "Did you just baby?" 

"Duh? " Camille flocked him on the forehead playfully," I think you heard right," She told him with heavy aroused breathing and ran her lips across his. At that moment the noises and the people faded into the background, it was just her and her husband, Eden.

Eden's eyes darkened and his grasp on her waist tightened as he pressed her closer to him and then closed in on her lips. He kissed her roughly, his hands on her ass molding and pressing her against his erection. Camille might not have a full hold of his heart - for now - but she had a hundred percent control over his little brother down there. It always stirred alive for her only. 

"Whoah, easy over here," Judy whistled, interrupting the passionate couples.

Both of them pulled away but there was a glint in their gazes; a dark promise of what was to come once they got home.

Even Judy noticed it and he couldn't help but wish he had come at a better time. Yeah, it was true that they bros discussed their sex life when they got together at times, but there was a limit and it was another thing to mentally comprehend the sexual innuendo right in front of you. It was pretty graphic and awkward.

"Sorry, you lovebirds," He faced Camille, "But I have to borrow your husband Eden for a brief moment," He asked for her permission. Although no man would love to bring the issue up, the truth was that women had a lot of power, and unless Camille said so, he couldn't take Eden away.

"Sure," Camille shrugged, "You can have him, just be sure to hand him back to me intact,"

"Duly noted," 

Meanwhile at the far end of the room, Sakuzi and Emerald were having a deep conversation.

"I won't be joining in this mission," Emerald finally informed him. 

Although Sakuzi would not have him punished or something, Emerald has always been the man's right-hand man

-this was something he has been doing all through his life - it seems awkward to suddenly pull out in an important mission like this one.

"Why?" Sakuzi asked him, "Cecil having your baby or something?"

Emerald's eyes widened in astonishment, "How did you know?"

"Oh, you really scored a goal?" Sakuzi realized he predicted accurately and both burst into a chorus of laughter.

"Bloody Mary, I cannot believe this," It sounded surreal to the mafia lord, "I just based that comment on the fact that you've been celibate for years now and wouldn't hesitate to drill her real good," He burst into another round of laughter while Emerald went beet red in the face.

Although Sakuzi was his boss, the man had been a father, brother, friend, and mentor. Valentino knew his left and right; his capability and life as a whole. 

So it was common for both of them to have conversations like this. To be honest, if it wasn't for the fact that the man was a whole lot older than him, people would have mistaken both as biological brothers. Even Finley and Victor weren't as close to their father as he was to him. That was how special their relationship was.

"This good news will be celebrated after we make it back alive tomorrow," Sakuzi had a lot of positivity for this mission. 

"However, that's not the reason why I won't be joining," Emerald went ahead to explain everything to him.

"Well, you have to keep your woman and your child safe," Sakuzi patted him on the back, "Trust me, children change things," 

And to that statement, Emerald concurred fully since he would be withdrawing from the gang after this mission. It was time to start his family and keep it safe.
