MY STEPBROTHER'S REPLACEMENT

Chapter #43

"Why is that? What goes with mommy not exciting?" ask Henrietta who's refocused on the streets.

"No mom," denied the two of them compactly.

"Then?" ask Henrietta.

Maisie tied her hands together and lowered her head without looking at her mother.

"Maisie wants to make miss Bella our aunt. Mom," Asher finally said.

Henrietta touched her temple with a free hand.

"Ohh my ..."

"Why do you want miss Bella to be your aunt?" ask Henrietta.

"Miss Bella's color is good, and I love it. Friends at school also often introduce their uncle and even their father to miss Bella," Maisie said.

"So, you want to be a cupid for your uncle?" henrietta's question was accompanied by a ruckus.

"Yes mom. I want miss Bella to be my aunt?" maisie said with a happy tone of voice.

Meanwhile, Asher could only see his overzealous younger brother's behavior.

"alright. But, you have to tell your uncle first, if he doesn't want to don't force it. You can go with mommy" Henrietta said in her soft voice.

"Okay mom" they answered together.

Until finally the car driven by Henrietta and her two children have entered the luxury mansion where they live.

Henrietta parked her car in front of the entrance to the mansion.

From inside the car Henrietta saw the main door of the mansion open from inside.

"Let's see who's there" Henrietta told her two children.

Instantly Henrietta's children turned their eyes to the mansion's main door, and a smile rose on the lips of the two.

"Be careful! Don't run" said Henrietta

he saw his two children rush out of the car.

"GRANDOM!" maisie shouted with happy sparkling eyes.

"Don't run or you'll fall" he said.

And sure enough, just commemorated Maisie has fallen because of tripping by his own feet.

Asher immediately helped his sister and also helped her to stand up.

"Had mommy told me not to run" said Henrietta, who was behind her two children.

"You okay princess?" ask the man who is no longer young.

"No grandfather," said Maisie.

"He's been like that a lot, grandpa," Asher said.

"Oh look ... Who's this handsome guy? You're getting taller boy," he said.

"I'm also getting taller grandfather, not just Asher," Maisie said.

"Oh really? But your height was still the same the last time Grandpa was here" Jared teased his great-granddaughter.

"Alright, now change your clothes first, only after that you can play with your great-grandfather," Henrietta concluded to both twins.

"Good mom," they said and passed away to their respective rooms on the second floor.

"Let's go granda" said Henrietta, taking her grandfather inside.

"Grandpa, can I make you some tea?" henrietta.

"No, the waiter just made some tea for grandpa. Sit down, we haven't talked for a long time" said the grandfather.

Henrietta sits next to her grandfather.

"You just got home from the company" Jared asked his grandson.

"The man will be here" Jared said suddenly without seeing his grandson's face and immediately drank his tea.

Henrietta was silent, she knew who the man her grandfather meant. No need to explain, my grandfather and his family already know the problem he experienced six years ago.

"Why?" ask Henrietta.

"His father proposed cooperation with our family company, and he sent his son to come here. Maybe he already knew you were in Spain, too" explained the grandfather with a mediocre expression.

"Find him, if you want to see him. After all, he is the father of your two children" he continued.

Henrietta did not say anything, she just fell silent with a straight look ahead.

"You married also not because of his mistake, it's all the destiny that God has outlined for you. Maybe that's how God brought you two together" Jared's grandfather said in his wise words.

He did not judge Henry at all, because he already knew the problem and it was all caused by the work of someone he hated so much, someone who had hurt his favorite daughter.

Behind them, without them knowing. Both of Henrietta's children heard his great-grandfather's words.

"You hear that Asher? Grandpa great-grandfather said daddy was going to Spain" Maisie whispered.

"I know," replied Asher.

"That's a sign we'll soon meet daddy" Maisie whispered with a happy twinkle in both eyes.

Asher sees his very happy sister when he hears that their father is coming to Spain.

Meanwhile, Maisie sees Asher's ordinary face, in contrast to her very happy self.

"Well! You're not happy we're meeting daddy?" ask Maisie.

"No!"

"Why?" maisie asked with a changed face.

Asher looked at his sister. "Mommy alone is not happy when she hears daddy is going to Spain" Asher said.

"But I want to meet daddy" said Maisie, whose eyes were almost glazed over.

"I want to go to school between daddies, I want to go camping with daddy" Maisie said.

"Don't you want that Ash?" tanyakanya.

Asher exhaled violently and wiped away the tears of his already dripping sister.

"Alright, after this we will ask the great-grandfather about daddy," said Asher.

The little man was so unwilling to see his twin cry, he would do anything that could make Maisie happy.

"really?" asked Maisie who was staring at Asher with her round eyes.

Asher nodded his head and smiled at his sister.

"Thank you, sister, you're a good sister, indeed" Maisie hugged Asher so happily.

"Why are you sitting here?" asked Imelda who was suddenly in front of the two boys.

The two children looked at each other before Maisie finally opened her voice.

"Rae's leg was sick because he tripped in front of it," concluded Maisie with a typical voice of her little child.

"Oh really? Then, here let the grandma be fat," said Imelda.

"No need for grandmas, Maisie can walk on her own. Grandma would be sick if she carried it" Asher said.

"Well! So you think Rae is fat and will make grandma suffer so much?" annoyed Maisie while shaking her waist and staring at her brother sharply.

Imelda chuckled at Maisie's cute angry face.

"I didn't say that. I'm just saying that grandma would be in pain if she carried you, I'm not saying you're fat" Asher said and passed from there to approach her mother and great-grandfather.

While stomping her feet Maisie caught up with her brother. Meanwhile, behind them Imelda was unceasingly laughing at the cute behavior of the two boys.

"Ohh ... I want to add another grandchild" murmured Imelda who was anxious herself.

"I have to get Aiden married immediately" he continued and followed the twins.
