Taming A Billionaire

Chapter 599 - Five Hundred And Ninety-Nine: Their Lives Afterwards

Ten years later:

The sunlight filtering through the window was a reminder to Reina that the morning has come - and shit!

"I'm late," She realized with a fright, sitting up at once?- at least tried to - Niklaus hands were bound tightly around her waist.

"Niklaus!" She hit him on the arms, waking him as well.

"Let me go, I have to prepare the kids for school," She complained against his arms that hadn't lessened at all.

"Let them be, they are no longer babies and can absolutely take care of themselves," He said, running his finger down her naked back that sent shivers down her spine.

Yeah, that was what she dreaded, them taking care of themselves. If Allen and Ailee and Neon had been trouble, the other triplets were havoc.

"They are still my babies," Reina complained, trying her luck at getting off the bed once again - it was an epic failure. Instead, her brute of a husband, used that opportunity to trap her beneath him giving her no means of escape.

He murmured close to her ears,

You've forgotten that you're my baby as well. Let's go have a shower together," and with that, he lifted her off the bed without warning.

Reina screamed, not out of fright but knowing that once they got in the shower, there would be no coming down - at least until some hours later. But then, no amount of screaming nor maneuver got her out of Niklaus' clasp.

Meanwhile, downstairs.....

Ailee knew she was doomed the instant she couldn't find her mother in the kid's room - she was probably busy with her father Niklaus, upstairs. For once, she was very grateful that her mother was in menopause, else the thought of having another sibling added to the present devils would turn her hair grey.

"Elsa! Ella! Diego! where are the fuck are you guys?!" Allen screamed, wondering where the hell they were. Since her mom was "busy" the responsibility of preparing the kids for school rested on her shoulder alone. And when she meant alone, she truly meant it.

Her asshole of a brother called Allen who could have helped her was upstairs, "busy" as well with many of his uncountable girlfriends. Yeah, you could clearly guess who Niklaus' player gene finally landed on.

It irritated her, not only because each time she stared at his face she could see a trace of her resemblance in him, no, she had many, many, other reasons.

It was as if her twin Allen changed the instant he stepped into teenagehood. He become nastier, rude, and whatever else classifies an asshole.?She couldn't help but wonder if that was a common transition in boys.

However, that wasn't the case for Neon - even thinking about him unconsciously brought a smile to her lips. Neon was everything her brother Allen could have been. He was smarter, stronger - and hotter. Just like Allen, it was as if the both of them went through a personality transplant. Just that while Allen turned out worse, Neon turned out better.

About her then? Ailee liked to think of herself as your everyday good girl. She was kind to everyone and smiled a lot, only revealing the demoness in her when offended. In one word, she was neither good nor bad. She was just Allen.

"Mom would be so mad when she hears you cursed around us,"?a voice said behind her, startling Ailee.

"Christ Jesus!" She had a hand to her chest, feeling her strong heartbeat. Suddenly, she narrowed her gaze at her, "Which one are you? Elsa? Ella?"

As one could guess from their names, Diego was the only male amongst the triplets and the rest were female and identical. Because they looked the same, Elsa and Ella liked to play a prank on everyone in the family.

"Guess," The girl said, her lips curled to the side.

Ailee shivered, oh no, she was at it again. The only people who had been able to pass this test were their mother, Reina, and Isabella. How do they do that? She has no idea. Even Niklaus fails woefully at identifying his own kids.

"No more stupid test, you should prepare for school," Allen has to find a way to escape this one.

She added, "If you can predict correctly, we would cover up for you this week without payment,"

Ailee gulped, knowing this was too big a deal to lose. Even as a grown-up, they were restricted to some activities and the triplets have proven to be a good business partner times without number - that was their only redeeming point.

She looked the girl over - which one of them, she had no idea - she had medium brown hair gotten from her Reina's side of the family and a huge contrast to Niklaus' lighter ones. Brown hair was a dominant allele in both the Spencer and Reina family. With amber eyes and those small lips pressed together, Ailee still had no idea how she could distinguish between two indistinguishable individuals.

"Your time is ticking, sister?" the little girl smirked, delighting in her anxiety and that was when Allen saw it. The difference.

Elsa had Isabella's wicked smile. Bingo.

"Elsa,"

Her face dropped.

"How did you…" She couldn't understand.

Ailee was smug, "Perhaps, the next time, you decide to test your older, experienced, sister, you should learn not to smile," and she pulled her by the ear, "Now, off to the bathroom you go, you little minx!"

"Ouch! Ouch!" Elsa complained as Ailee dragged her into the bathroom, making sure to lock the door from the outside before going in search of the others.

Compared to them - Allen, Ailee, and Neon- her parents had trained the triplets less strictly - you could almost say they were too lazy to parent. Well, one couldn't blame them since Sakuzi made sure he could spend every minute with his grandkids. In one word, the triplets were spoilt and lazy.

It wasn't hard to find the other twin, Ella, lying on the corridor, up to her own devices when Ailee snatched her from behind and locked her up in the bathroom with her sister.

Ailee was not worried about Diego, compared to Elsa and Ella, he was less lethal - maybe, a little. But the boy was less mischievous than his sisters or so she thought. He was careless.

"I can see! I can't see! I'm surrounded in darkness!" Diego searched blindly, hands feeling around the kitchen. A place where many things could go wrong and hurt him -if not blow up the house.

With a deep breath, Ailee strode over to him and pulled away the blindfold from his face, snapping, "You're obviously surrounded by light!"

She took him away.
