[Flashback]

"Come here young man," Semion lovingly pinched thirteen year old Andrew's cheeks. "Look at you, you are already so big."

He patted his thigh. "Sit on grandpa's lap."

Andrew happily smiled and did what he was asked to. It had only been a day since he had met his grandpa and he was already very fond of him.

Semion smiled and caressed the little boys back. "Do you know you have a cousin brother?"

"Cousin brother?"

"Yes," he nodded. "He is your uncle Javier's son, his name is Owen."

Thinking for a while, Andrew inquired, "Is he big?"

"Oh no, he is your age," Semion smiled. "I can say that you both are going to get along really very well."

Before Andrew could answer, he questioned him. "Do you wanna meet him?" When he nodded, Semion exclaimed, "Great, you can meet him when you come to Russia with me."

"Russia?" Andrew frowned. "I don't wanna go to Russia. I have many friends here."

"Oh dear—" Semion chuckled. "You don't have a choice, do you?"

"Andrew, come here," Frederick called him out.

When he saw his father, Andrew quickly got up and ran towards him.

Just then, Lisa arrived along with Javier.

"What is going on?" she inquired.

"Why don't you ask your father?" Frederick snapped. He had heard what Semion was telling his son and he was not happy.

He wasn't happy about Lisa inviting her family over in the first place but since she was very excited and happy, he didn't have the heart to object to her.

"Dad, what happened?" Lisa looked at father.

"Oh nothing," Semion chuckled. "I was just telling Andrew how good Russia is and he is gonna love that place."

"What?" she frowned. "Why would you tell him that?"

"It's because I am taking Andrew with me," Semion remarked as he got up.

"Are you out of your mind?" Frederick yelled.

"Dad, what is wrong with you?" Lisa pursed her lips. "What are saying such things?"

"I am merely speaking the truth," he stated. "You betrayed me, didn't you? So isn't it only right if you compensate by giving me your son?"

"My son is not going anywhere." Frederick was boiling in anger.

"Honey, calm down—" Lisa placed her hand on his arm before looking at Andrew. "Go to your room."

"Mom—"

"Andrew, do as mom says. Go to your room," she instructed him. "We have something to discuss with your grandfather and uncle."

Andrew nodded his head and walked towards his room even though he didn't want to. He didn't want to leave his parents and move to Russia.

Before he could enter his room, he heard his father yell. Instead of entering the room, he stood behind the pillar and silently observed them.

"Who do you think you are to take my son away?" Frederick yelled.

"And who do you think you are to stop us from doing anything?" Javier scoffed. "You are no one but a weakling."

"Javier, shut your damn mouth," Lisa glared at him. "Don't talk to my husband like that."

"There is no point discussing, I want Andrew." Semion looked at Lisa. "If you want your husband and son to live, hand him over to me."

Before Lisa could object, he remarked, "You were supposed to be my successor but you stabbed my back and eloped for love. But I need someone, don't I?"

"Then I will go back home with you," Lisa stated.

"Lisa, what are you saying?" Frederick frowned.

Ignoring her husband, she added, "I will do whatever you want but please don't do this to Andrew, don't do this to my son." Lisa would never let her son enter the hellhole she was once a part of.

"Enough," Frederick yelled. "No one is going anywhere." He glared at Semion. "My wife and son are not leaving this house without my permission."

In response, Semion chuckled. "I don't need your wife." He then looked at Lisa. "I don't need you anymore. After what you have done, how can I trust you? I want Andrew."

The determination in his eyes to take Andrew with him scares Lisa to the core. No one knew her father like she did. If he wanted to take Andrew with him, he would do it no matter what.

"Didn't you hear what I said? No one is going anywhere." At this point, Fredrick couldn't control his anger anymore. How could he stay calm when a man was threatening them to take their son away?

"Dad he is a kid—" Lisa couldn't help but sob. "Don't do this to him."

Semion sighed and helplessly shook his head. "No honey, I am not doing anything. You did this to him. It's all your fault."

"That's it—" Frederick took a step forward. "Get the hell out of my house." ƒ𝑟𝐞𝗲𝘄𝙚𝚋𝑛o𝙫𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝘰𝓂

When Semion chuckled, he yelled again. "I said get out of my house."

Javier sneered and looked at Lisa. "Your husband is tired of living, isn't he?"

"What if we don't get out of your house?" Semion chuckled and took out a revolver from his jacket. "What are you gonna do?"

Lisa widened her eyes in shock and quickly shielded Frederick. "Dad, no—"

She panicked and looked at Frederick. "Fred go inside—"

"No, I am not going inside," he firmly stated. "We can't let him take our son away, Lisa."

"No, you don't understand." She looked at him with teary eyes. "You have to go inside."

Frederick wiped her tears away. "We can't live in fear all the time. We can't hide all the time."

He cupped her face. "I know you have tried to keep me away from them since the very beginning. You have protected our family in every possible way. I am not gonna let him take you or Andrew away from me. At least not until I am alive."

"Please—" She was aware of what would happen if she didn't stop Frederick or her father. And the mere thought of it horrified her.

"Oh so you are saying that I can take Andrew away if you are dead?" Semion questioned him.
