The Billionaire's Kept Woman

Chapter 265 - Surprise Engagement Party

Keira exclaimed when her mother and father came out from a fancy cabin van with butlers and maids that she had never seen before and an old man holding a cane. She quickly hugged her mother and father who lovingly kissed her, like she's the only daughter.

"What is this party?" She asked and Harvey came with his pregnant wife who was also baffled.

"What's going on?" He asked and greeted his sister with a big hug.

"This better be good," Johanna grumbled and looked around. "Is there food ready? I'm starving."

"Kids, let's not talk here in the driveway," Karmina said as she carefully scooped Johanna's arms. "I think we brought something to eat." She then glanced at? Henry who helped the old man. Keira stared at the old man who smiled at her and bowed at her. She didn't know how to respond to that so she smiled awkwardly..

"Hi,"

"It's a great evening, Princess Keira."

Keira giggled and waved.

"Princess is not my name."

The old man only smiled as Henry shrugged. They went to the hall where the foods were set up and Karmina sneaked food for her pregnant daughter. It was a little chaotic and noisier as everyone was having fun on the other side with the arcade games.

"So, whose resort is this?" Keira asked her husband.

"It's Adam's private resort. Your Uncle asked me about a certain resort to rent for a night or two. And this place is the safest." He answered and he checked her cleavage. "Is that real?" He asked. The question that he asked received a loud slap on his arm. He winced and rubbed it. He felt like he was slammed by a wood.

"How dare you ask that." She glared at him.

"I was just kidding." He chuckled nervously and pulled his wife's waist. He kissed her mouth, like love making it. He covered their faces with his hands and that's when Keira pushed him.

"No. We won't do that." She shook her head like she already read or knew what he meant by that kiss. "I'm tired."

"Really?" He hugged her from behind and kissed her arm. "But it's a party. We can be late." He snuggled with her.

"I will think about it." She shrugged at him. Keira smiled as her mother was busy feeding Johanna with delicious foods before the diner was set. She still doesn't know what the party was all about but then her Uncle seemed to be not in the scene and Tracey was chatting with Leon's girlfriend. She then saw Violet in the corner drinking some juice with Viper. The missing people were Terrence and Maxine and she knew well why they weren't at this party.

Harvey sat on the grand piano with his wife and started playing the Wedding march. Keira gaped and shook her head when her Uncle came wearing a tuxedo coat, bowtie, and cropped pants that's above the knee. She frowned. He was also holding a fancy briefcase and he approached Tracey and kneel on one knee.

Tracey giggled and opened the case. She froze and stared at the glittering gems that had each box on them.

"You can choose your ring today. The one that captures your heart will be your official engagement ring."

"Why are there so many?" Tracey was already tearing. "Everything was beautiful."

But she picked up the ruby that has blue diamonds around it. She sniffled and pouted.

"This is beautiful too."

He looked at it and closed the briefcase as he gave it to Viper and he stood and put it on her left ring finger where she wore the cheap ring that he gave yesterday.

"We can remove that, you know."

She hugged him tightly instead of replying to something like that. She was crying in happiness with her face shoved in his chest.

"I love you." She whispered.

"I love you, more." He patted her head and kissed it. "I bought the other rings, do you want me to give them back to the store?"

She looked up at him with tears and shook her head.

"No. That's a great investment and you bought them for me!"

He laughed and everyone clapped their hands. Keira, on the other hand, had her hand over her forehead.

"So, when will the wedding be? It wouldn't be before my wedding, right?"

"No. Next week." Ian answered that Keira sighed in frustration. "Sorry, darling. Are you surprised?"

"I am so surprised that you will get married in a short time after dating and that was before my luxury wedding. Everyone is getting married before I have my formal luxury wedding!"

Harvey laughed and then he covered his mouth so as not to annoy his sister further.

"Fine." She shook her head but everyone was laughing. "Damn it." She grumbled.

"By the way, it's only a few months when the two of you get along together?" Johanna asked. "I mean, you jumped into marriage after heartbreaks on both sides?" She shrugged. She's always straightforward that could ruin a moment. But Tracey and Ian only laughed about it.

"Niece, it's called love and sexual attraction," Ian said with his arms wrapped around her waist.

"And it's very, very not good looking that you are wearing cropped pants." Johanna shook her head. "You looked like a stripper."

Connor quickly covered her mouth and laughed aloud. But everyone was laughing about Johanna's comment. She was indeed right.

"Let's eat!" Karmina said and Johanna agreed to that.

They all sat down and then Karmina stood.

"Alright, I have an announcement, kids." She declared. Currently, the staff of the resort left and the area was guarded by security. They listen attentively. Harvey knew about it but Karmina hasn't told Jo and Keira or Alessandro. "This is," She held the old man's hand. "This is our family's trusted Secretary. He's been protecting my family's wealth for decades."

"Oh," Keira had her eyes widened. "You are rich, mom?" Keira asked.

"Yes, in fact," Henry spoke. "The Golden Age was funded by them before it was even on top."

"Oh," Keira exclaimed. "So," She waited for her mother.

"I will tell you the rest later. But I want you to greet him, Carter.

"Hello, Mr. Carter." Keira greeted and so Johanna spoke in Italian fluently to greet the old man. The old man spoke back in Italian to Johanna and in English to Keira. Then, the butlers came and gave two boxes with the Original Logo of the Rossie Empire.

"Fancy," Keira said as she opened it. She eyed the card and took it to check on it. Then, there's also a beautifully simple necklace. It must be gems but hers were purple or maybe an amethyst while Johanna has the Opal. "It's beautiful. Thank you."

"Thank you," Johanna mumbled as she stared at the card. "Where does this access go?" She asked. The man was silent.

"We will talk about that later," Karmina said. "But, put those pretty necklaces on. It's an heirloom."

"Must be so expensive."

Alessandro took the necklace and put it to Keira and Connor did the same. On the other hand, Violet, Tracey, and Alicia also received gifts from the KR jewelry.

Johanna had it kept beside her and she started eating. But still, her mind swirled through the logo of a certain royalty. She remembered it back then. She saw a small brooch that had the same emblem back when she was little. She was curious but she needed to stop asking with all of her ears.

"Do you need anything else?" He asked and caressed her hair away from her face.

"No." She smiled at him and continued eating.

"So, today was Thursday and tomorrow, you want to keep the party going on?" Keira asked and shortly Gena and Alex arrived late. It seemed like they were busy over something and Gena greeted Keira's family and then finally Ian. Tracey showed the ring to her mom.

"Wow," Gena sighed.

"It was designed by my sister-in-law years back then," Ian said proudly as Gena looked at Karmina who smiled charmingly.

"You did? It's so amazing, Mina." Gena hugged her daughter warmly. "Thank you for accepting my daughter into your family."

"As long as they love each other. I don't mind." Karmina said. "Why won't the two of you sit down and eat? We just started."

Alex and Gena sat down as they enjoyed the delicious foods. Then, they continue chatting.

"So, this Friday night, we will have a bachelor and bachelorette party," Ian announced. We still have a day to relax and on Sunday there will be a gender reveal party. I hope that I don't get on your schedule." Ian said and looked at Leon and Alicia.

"I don't have a schedule," Alicia said. "I will probably be there."

"Amazing." Tracey was excited about everything even though it was a rush. Her phone vibrated over the table and he noticed the number from the Charles Empire. Tracey was busy chatting that's why he slid her phone under the table to keep it from being destroyed.

He needs to get married to her by Monday. He still has five days to prepare.

"Love," Tracey turned to him. "I want to try the other rings later." She whispered at him.

"Sure," he smiled at her. She glanced at her phone that was on his chair beside him. "Let's keep your phone here. It's quite noisy."

"Okay," She didn't doubt him.
