Chapter 339: Meeting at the Airport

After convincing her family, Scarlet, then, contacted Wil and informed him that she agrees to his conditions, however, requesting two things at the same time.

One is to keep Rey's birth secret from Scott and Mia, and the other is to change his birth year from 2001 to 2000 as she already committed to his family that way, so that, there won't be any confusion regarding the difference between their age, especially to Scott.

In fact, she wanted to lie with the same thing to Rey and keep him in dark. However, when she remembered Wil's wealth, she was worried that in the future, Rey might claim Philip's inheritance too and fight with Wil.

At that time, when the truth will be out, he will only become a fool in the end. It is something that she wasn't willing to see, ever.

Although, she was confident that he isn't like that still, who would know about the future? Who knows how Rey would change after he grew up. After all, when tens of billions of dollars are at stake, one would normally lose rationality.

That's why she revealed the truth to Rey. However, Scott and Mia are different. Keeping the truth from them will not cause any damage. So, she requested Wil to keep it from them.

Since it isn't a big deal, Wil also agreed to it.

After all, his aim isn't to cause trouble and break their family apart. All he wanted to get rid of the relationship between him and his mother.

Once, a month passes away, both of them will get back to their past lives. With such a thought in his mind, Wil decides to go and meet his mother's family after he reached Marsh Islands.

However, he didn't expect that not only the trip to Marsh Islands solved nothing but also received a call from Hyori who only wanted him to support her by watching live on the internet.

Right then, he remembered the incident that occurred at Wular city and decided to go there. At the same time, he also wanted to cause some inconvenience to his mom.

After his call with Hyori over, Wil immediately called Scarlet.

"Hello, Wil. Did you already start? I just finished, readying your room" Scarlet appeared excited, on the other side of the phone. 

"No, I'm not coming today. I'm going to Wular city on personal matters."

"Wular city?" Scarlet went into a daze, trying to remember the name. She surely heard of the name somewhere but wasn't able to recollect the memory. "When will you return?" Although she was a little bit disappointed that he wasn't coming to their home right away, Scarlet tried to not show it in her tone.

"Three days. However, from there, I also need to go to Ares city to visit my fiance and her family. So, I'm hoping that you will come with me. My future mother-in-law expressed her wishes to meet you, a while ago." Wil explained, following his plan.

In reality, he never intended to go there. After the incident with Luoyang, no matter how much he convinced himself, Wil still felt bad for Akiko. He wondered how long he would able to look at her face and talk nicely as if nothing happened.

Then, why did he ask his mother to tag along?

It was so that if she will hesitate to come, then, Wil would have a reason at the end to reject the relationship.

And even if she accompanies him, it wouldn't do any harm, anyway. Who knows, it might annoy her husband, which might provide him another excuse.

Meanwhile, Scarlet, who already knew about her fiance from Silver, fell into deep thoughts once again. If it's just traveling back and forth, it wouldn't matter.

However, going away for a week while leaving her kids at home, she isn't comfortable with that.

After thinking for a while, she came to a decision and asked whether his siblings can also tag along with her.

Wil didn't take took too much to respond to her question. It was within his expectations. Moreover, he always looked forward to bond with his sister.

He said, "As long as Mr. Quilton won't come with us. It won't look good for me if I were to introduce him to my in-laws. Moreover, I don't think he would be comfortable with staying alone at the hotel, either."

Unlike where she thought about kids, Scarlet didn't even hesitate as she agreed with Wil and decided to go without Scott. 

However, after disconnecting the call, she thought he would be sad if she were to do that. So, she planned on only taking Mia with her. It's not because Mia is her real daughter and Rey isn't. It's just that Rey is almost an adult and can take care of himself.

She thought, in this way, neither Wil nor Scott will be displeased. However, in the end, she decided to bring him with her too, so that he will not misunderstand that he was being ignored.

5 A.M., August 28th, 2020;

*Knock* *Knock*

"Mia, it's getting late. Wake up." Scarlet knocked on the door before she goes to the next door to wake up Rey. 

*Yawn* Scratching her hair, Mia complained while still appearing sleepy, "Mom, didn't you tell me that we are going on a private jet? It won't go anywhere."

"Well, your brother will be disappointed and thinks that you don't like him, then," Scarlet said with a smile.

"Eh? Why would Rey be disappointed?" Mia asked in confusion while blinking her eyes.

"She was talking about the eldest brother, not me." Rey let out a comment as he brought the luggage to the living room.

"Ah! Then, I'll hurry up and ready nicely. I don't want the first impression to be bad." Mia hurried back to her room.

Just as she was about to close the door, something suddenly clicked inside her mind and Mia said, "By the way, mom. You never said the name of the eldest brother."

"You will know when you meet him." Scarlet didn't want to spoil the mystery as they already met him.

After a while, Silver arrived at their apartments and escorted them to the Airport.

Reaching the terminal, Silver called Wil.

"Young Master is on his way. He said it'll take ten more minutes." Silver apologized to Scarlet.

"It's alright." She waved her hand. A while later, taking a seat at a coffee shop, Scarlet asked, "Earlier, you mentioned that Wil rented another jet for his friend's family and he was going all the way to Wular just to see her performance. Do you really think they are just friends?"

"Young Master says so. And I have no reason not to believe him." Silver answered it confidently. "However, Ms. Hyori looks very beautiful. So, I won't be surprised if young master will fall in love with her. She was also an excellent Archer, by the way."

Just as his words were finished, he received a call from Wil.

Soon, the family of three met Wil, a family of four, and a dozen bodyguards around them.

"Hello" Looking at Rey and Mia, Wil smiled, "I believe you still remember me from a few days ago. Let me formally introduce myself, Williard Ravens."

While Mia took his handshake, Rey was looking at the twins in surprise.
