One last time

Rocky's and Janet's place.

"Aunt Liza isn't back?" Matthew fronwed and asked.

"Wasn't you and aunt Liza together?" Veronica asked before glancing at her watch. It was almost half past nine and aunt Liza wasn't back yet.

Taking out his phone, Matthew tried calling her but the call did not go through. "She was with me but she left around 3. I thought she left for home but-"

"Big brother what's wrong?" Janet asked.

"Aunt Liza hasn't arrived yet." Matthew said before calling Aunt Liza again.

"Maybe she got stuck somewhere. I'll go and check downstairs." Grabbing his coat, Rocky was about to leave when the doorbell rang.

Walking towards the door, Rocky said, "I think it's aunt Liza." 

Matthew breathed a sigh of relief when he saw aunt Liza. "I've been calling for a really long time. What happened to your phone?"

Looking at everyone, Aunt Liza helplessly shook her head. "I am not a small kid kids, so why are you people so worried about me?"

"Where did you go?" Matthew asked.

Crashing on the couch, Aunt Liza took a deep breath. "I needed a cold bottle of beer to clear my head."

"So it took you six hours to finish a bottle of beer?" Matthew asked.

When Aunt Liza did not say anything, Matthew raised his eyebrows and asked, "Aunt, were you alone?"

"Of course I was alone." Aunt Liza snapped.

*DING* *DONG*

"I'll get it." Rocky yelled before rushing towards the door.

Rocky widened his eyes in shock when he saw uncle Jackie standing at the door holding something. "Mr Jones-I mean uncle Jack? Oh this isn't Silvia's place. It's-"

Cutting him off, uncle Jackie shook his head. "Oh no, I am here to see Liza. She stays here right?"

Rocky nodded his head and asked him to come inside.

When Matthew saw uncle Jackie, he grinned and got up. "Ohh hey Uncle Jackie, it's nice to meet you again. Are you here to see aunt Liza?"

Jackie smiled and nodded his head. "Yeah, Liza left her purse in my car so I am here to give her."

"Left her purse in your car? How did that happen?" Matthew asked before looking at aunt Liza whose face had already turned super red out of embarrassment.

"I guess she dropped it when we left the club and-"

"Ahhh so you both were together?" Matthew asked.

Uncle Jackie nodded his head. "We had a couple of drinks together."

Matthew was about to say something but Aunt Liza interrupted him, "Jack...mmmm thanks for getting my purse and sorry for the trouble." before taking her purse from uncle Jackie's hand.

Jackie smiled and said, "It's alright. I'll take my leave now."

"Uncle why don't you have dinner with us?" Janet asked.

Uncle Jackie smiled and shook his head, "Maybe next time, I am in a hurry right now." Turning towards aunt Liza, uncle Jackie smiled and added, "I'll see you tomorrow then."

Aunt Liza smiled and nodded her head.

After uncle Jackie left, Matthew cleared his throat and grinned at his aunt. "So you went alone huh?"

Janet excitedly clapped her hands together and sniffed, "Ahhh do you all smell something? Ahhh I smell love."

Aunt Liza sighed and helplessly shook her head, "You kids, we just had a few drinks together."

"Okay so if it was just a few drinks then why did you lie? Why did you say that you were alone?" Matthew asked while grinning from ear to ear.

Smacking Matthews arm, Veronica scolded him, "Will you stop teasing her? So what if she went out with uncle Jackie? Isn't it normal for a single beautiful woman to date a single handsome man? Aunt Liza is young and she also needs some change and refreshment in her life."

Aunt Liza widened her eyes in shock, "Veronica what are you saying?"

Wrapping his arms around his wife's shoulder, Matthew nodded his head, " Mu Vero is absolutely right."

"I cannot wait to share this special news with Silvia ahhh this is so exciting." Janet squealed.

Massaging her temples, Aunt Liza sighed. "You kids are unbelievable."

…..

Austin mansion.

Kevin's study room.

"There are people following Jeren Green as well. We managed to catch one of them and after interrogating him for quite sometime, he revealed Sabrina Jones' plans to us." Passing Kevin an envelope, Lucifer sat down.

"What plans?" Kevin asked before opening the envelope.

Keeping quiet for quite sometime, Lucifer added, "She has plans of abducting Jeren Green."

Going through the photographs, Kevin sighed. "This is unbelievable." Tossing the photographs aside, Kevin helplessly shook his head. Sabrina Jones had really crossed all the boundaries. Not only did she allot people to follow Jeren but also had plans of abducting her. How low can this woman stoop? 

"Jeren will be joining college soon and at that time things will become even more dangerous. Jeren is your madam's sister so I cannot let her suffer as well. I want you to protect Jeren starting today. Make sure she is safe and nothing happens to her. I only trust you Lucifer and I hope you will never let me down." 

Lucifer nodded his head and assured Kevin, "Don't worry sir, Jeren is my responsibility starting today and I'll take care of her." 

….

Inside Kevin's room.

"Where did you go?" Silvia asked before closing the book she was reading.

"I thought you were asleep."

Silvia raised her eyebrows and asked, "So if I am asleep, you have the right to walk out of the room leaving me alone to freeze in this cold weather?"

Kevin chuckled and vigorously shook his head, "No it doesn't." Before pulling her into his embrace.

Snuggling against his chest, Silvia pouted her lips and asked, "How are you always so warm?"

"Because I am hot." Kevin cheekily said.

"Haha very funny Mr Austin. You are hot because your wife is hot." 

Kevin chuckled and asked, "What kind of logic is that?" 

"That is my logic." Just then Silvia's phone rang.

"It's Janet." Kevin said before passing her the phone.

Silvia frowned and wondered, "At this time?" before picking up the call.
