My Ex Next Door-38 Chapter 38: Mary McSalter

The table is set and all the food around looks so delicious. Mary called everyone to come to the dining.

Brent took an extra chair for the guest, they all seated and talk while waiting for Daniella and Peyton.

The doorbell rang, Ken and Evan looked at each other, imagining Daniella's surprise face.

Novie walks to the door and opened it. Shock painted on her face to see Daniella with Peyton, the clothes Daniella have was something she had never seen.

Peyton was wearing a red mini skirt, showing her assets while Daniella was wearing a black slack and a gray coat underneath her light blue polo.

She wants to greet them but the two were arguing.

"I told you we are going to a meeting, not a freaking bar, why did you wear that. All the boards are staring at your boobs instead of focusing on me" Daniella complained.

Peyton crossed her arms and her boobs almost popped out from her dress, "Hey, it's not my fault that my boobs exceeded your beauty" Peyton blurted.

Daniella gasped and rolled her eyes, "I don't care about your boob, people thought I was a pimp by bringing you instead of Ken" Peyton wave a hand in the air, asking Daniella to shut up.

"Hi, food is getting cold so why don't we continue this later" Novie interrupted them with her nose crinkled.

The two looked at her and smiled.

"Oh my god! Novie I missed you!" Daniella pulled her body to hug, Novie was shocked, Daniella was her boss but they were so close like now.

"Thank you, Ken mentioned that you were here some days ago" Novie spoke and greeted Peyton.

"You look so sexy Peyton, where's Matthew?" Novie asked and lead the way to the dining.

"He's in the house, I must have forgotten to untie him from the bed" Peyton blurted while following her.

Daniella and Peyton laughed at the same time, "We should have left some food on the bed so the ants will climb and bite him" Daniella suggested.

"Shut up Daniella, Matthew is my husband, a little respect please" The two looked at each other with a serious face… then,

"Ha ha" the two laughed at the same time, not minding where they are.

They have reached the dining, the triplet was about to run to their mother when suddenly…

"Oh my god! You came back!!!" a voice from behind of Daniella spoke.

Everyone turned to its direction.

"Peyton, darling are you really here?"

–

Brent widened his eyes in shock, the woman in front was the first woman he ever love. The reason why he never involved himself to a serious relationship, was because he was waiting for her to show up.

The small woman in front looked so elegant in her office suit, he walks to her direction and hugs her.

"Oh gosh, Peyton I thought you were never coming back" His eyes shut, and reminisced the time they were chat mates. He was not expecting to see her in person.

The girl pushed him away.

"I am sorry but my name is Daniella and this is Peyton" the woman said and pointed at the girl beside her.

In the other side, Ken's brow snapped together in confusion, he leaned closer to Evan.

"I am confused" he whispered.

Evan looked at him with the same expression, "Me too, Matthew told me Brent was one of Daniella's boyfriend"

"Well, based on shorty's reaction, I don't think she remembered him. What should I do now? I haven't told Angelo yet" Ken spoke in a worried tone.

"I told you earlier to talk to him, why didn't you?" Evan asked.

Ken clicked his tongue, "I got nervous," Evan looked at Ken with a flat face.

"Nervous, really? All the spirit of the people you killed must be laughing in hell right now" Evan shook his head and stood up.

–

Brent was confused,

"No, you are Peyton, we chatted some years ago" Brent put his hand on Daniella's shoulder and pull her to hug.

"Ugh!" Brent grunted and looked at his legs, his eyes went round in shock.

Ethan and Leo got each of his legs and hitting hit so hard.

"Stop hugging mommy" the boy spoke in rhyme, with that, Brent let go of Daniella.

(!) Brent touched his back, he swung his body around and saw Alexandria with a shoe on her hand, hitting his back.

"Don't touch mommy!!!" the little girl yelled at him.

Brent was so confused, no one stopped the triplets from hurting him.

"Ok stop, I will not touch her again just… stop hurting me… goodness!!!" Brent rolled his eyes and took a step back away from the triplets.

He exhaled and looked at Daniella.

"Don't you really remember me? We chatted online and had some phone calls. I have your Facebook account" Brent insisted, his voice was low.

Daniella bites her lips and looked at Peyton with narrowed eyes.

"Peyton, did you use my picture to flirt with him?" Daniella asked. Peyton shrugged her shoulder, not bothered by the chaos around.

"Yes, I needed the information about Ken Chu and since he's a member of Blue Dragon then….--" Peyton stopped when she saw Daniella glaring at her.

"Wait, how did Brent know the information about Ken if they haven't met before?" Angelo asked.

He was watching everyone's action especially the woman his son embraced. He felt as if he had seen her somewhere.

"You used me to get information about my boss?" Brent spoke in disbelief.

Angelo narrowed his eyes and decided to keep quiet and listened to them.

"Yes," Peyton answered.

Brent gasped and turned to Daniella, "I am sorry, I didn't know that you was not that person" Brent spoke in an apologetic tone.

Daniella smiled at him, then she extended her hand and introduced herself.

"I am Daniella Su, that's my husband Evan Su," she said and pointed at Evan who was busy lecturing the triplets for hurting Brent.

"And that's my kids, though I have one more which is 10 years old, he's with his father" Daniella continued.

Brent's eyebrow rose, confused by her words.

"Does it mean you have two husband?" he asked.

Daniella shook her head and laugh, "No, silly! it's a long story" then Daniella turned to Mary and Angelo.

"Good Evening Mr. and Mrs. McSalter, I apologize for the chaos" Daniella extended her hand and introduced herself once again.

"I am Daniella Su, Ken's sister."

Mary and Angelo stood, "Hi, you are so pretty, no wonder the triplets are like angels" Mary spoke with enthusiasm.

"Nice to meet you Mrs. Su, but can you tell me why your friend pretended to be you to get Ken's information? And why Ken?"

Angelo's face turned serious.

Daniella sighed, "Is it possible to speak to you, alone?" Daniella said without removing her eyes from him.

Angelo narrowed his eyes, when Daniella's eyes past behind him, he followed it and found her staring at Novie.

"Is this about my daughter?" he asked in a tone where only Daniella can hear it.

"No, it's about your family" she replied.

Angelo sighed and looked at his wife.

"I will need to speak to her, you can all eat first" then everyone went back to their seat except Evan and the triplets.

The triplets are standing in the corner with their head looking at the ground and their father lecturing them.

–

Outside…

Daniella took a cigarette from her purse and light it on, while Angelo leaned his back against the wall and crossed his arms.

"What is it this about Mrs. Su?" Angelo asked.

Daniella blows the smoke and looked at him.

"My brother Ken Chu is your daughter's girlfriend," she said straight.

Angelo almost fell from leaning on the wall, he looked at her in surprise.

"What?" he asked.

Daniella blows another smoke and sighed.

"You can ask your daughter for the details but I want you to know that my brother was the previous boss of the Blue Dragon organization"

With those words, Angelo straightened up, his confused face contorted in anger.

"If you're here to convince me to let them be together, don't. you're wasting your time, I will not let my daughter be involved with a gang boss." Angelo spoke in a low and cold tone.

But Daniella didn't mind it.

"What makes you think I care about your opinion?" She rudely asked, she throws the cigarette on the floor and stepped on it.

"I will not let any danger come to Novie. You must have an idea how many enemies Ken had made when he was the boss" Angelo spoke, he knows the issue with the Blue Dragon, not because of his job but because of his son.

Now he understands why Ken and Brent are so close.

"Danger?" Daniella laughed bitterly.

"I think your family will bring more danger to my brother than his enemy"

Angelo looked at her, confused with her words, but his heart starts to pound so hard.

"What do you mean?" he asked in a faint voice, his knee starts shaking when he saw Daniella's serious face.

"Andrea Morsch, isn't your wife's real name?"

Angelo uncrossed his arms and move closer to Daniella, his jaw twitched while his eyes went round.

"How- how did you know her real name?" he stuttered.

His hand trembles as he seized and gripped one of Daniella's arm.

"How did you know?" he glared at her.

Daniella hastily removed his hand and sighed.

"Your wife's niece, Althea Morsch. I met her, she kidnapped me when I was pregnant and shot me in the head, leaving me in a coma for eight months." Daniella gulped and continued.

"The princess is dead and the Aldovian government has been keeping the news. There are some people who want the throne but they can't have it unless your family is dead."
