I'm The Villain's Precious Daughter
Chapter 5
"Where is she!? Where did you hide her!? Let me see Irene this instance!!"
Alexander Vanidestine
(staring at Martin with nonchalantly) Are you done? (cold)
Martin Vance/Fl's uncle
How can you–!
Alexander Vanidestine
Alright, shut up. (cold)
Alexander Vanidestine
She's resting right now. You can meet her when she wakes up. (cold)
Alexander Vanidestine
Till then, you can play with him, August– nevermind, he's too useless to even play with you.
Little August
Dad, uncle is not useless.
Hearing his nephew defend him in front of Alexander, he was really touched..
Martin Vance/Fl's uncle
August, you–
However, before he could complete his sentence he heard something that made his heart shatter..
Little August
He's also hopeless and dumb!
Martin Vance/Fl's uncle
(squatting in a corner and drawing circles of misery)
Alexander Vanidestine
Where's Mom and Dad?
Martin Vance/Fl's uncle
I'm useless, i don't know. (pouting)
Martin Vance/Fl's uncle
' C'mon, come and please me to tell you about your in-laws whereabouts. Only I know of there current address. C'mon, please me. '
Little August
Grandpa and Grandma went to Spain a few days ago. They are on their way back now.
Martin Vance/Fl's uncle
How the hell do you know that!? It was confidential!!
Little August
Oh, I was missing them, so I called them. They told me that they were in Spain and would only be back after a week. But they are rushing back now. As per the speed of the jet, they should be here by 5 pm.
Alexander Vanidestine
I don't call you useless for nothing, dearest brother in law.
Martin Vance/Fl's uncle
(crying rivers in some corner)
Little August
When will she wake up? Can't we meet her now? (excited)
Alexander Vanidestine
No, we can't disturb her. Her mana was greatly influenced, so she has to take proper rest. Let her wake up then you can meet her.
Martin Vance/Fl's uncle
What!? How did it happen!? Is she alright!? (tensed)
Little August
Yes, is she alright? What was she doing to have her mana greatly influenced?! (worried)
Alexander Vanidestine
She had an emotional outburst. Her energy and mana was being all consumed, so I had to manage the flow of her mana with mine. Nothing to worry about.
Martin Vance/Fl's uncle
(heaves a sigh of relief) That's good.
Little August
As long as she's okay.
This sudden scream alerted the three guys in the living room. Three of them dashed towards Irene's room as soon as they heard the shout..
Alexander Vanidestine
What's happening here, Lilith? (cold)
Lilith Elore
Master! Take a look at Young Miss! (panicked)
Alexander and Martin hurried inside Irene's room followed by the little boy..
But what they saw upon entering her room gave them quite a shock..
The room was covered with a layer of ice, while it was radiating greatly from the centre of the room, which was thickly covered in ice..
Alexander Vanidestine
What happened? (cold)
Lilith Elore
I don't know clearly, but I heard her murmur something when tears rolled down her eyes and after that, she glowed really bright that it was hard to keep the eyes open..when I opened my eyes, I saw Young Miss like this.. (anxious)
Alexander Vanidestine
(snaps his fingers)
Such a simple act, he just snapped his fingers and the room was back to its normal state, except for Irene, who was still covered in ice..
Alexander Vanidestine
(frowns because of the sudden scream) (looks at the small ice mountain) ' She's fighting..she's fighting a much more great force than before.. daughter, what are you going through? '
Little August
Dad, dad, the ice block is cracking!
Alexander Vanidestine
Your sister is waking up.
Martin Vance/Fl's uncle
What happened to her? Why's she like this?
Alexander Vanidestine
Emotional outburst. It will take some time for her to get over with it.
Alexander Vanidestine
(saw her opening her eyes) (hurries over to her side)
Alexander Vanidestine
Irene, you okay?
Little Irene
(dazed) Dad.. what's up? (yawns)
Alexander Vanidestine
Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?
Little Irene
No. I'm good. (rubbing her eyes)
Little Irene
(saw Martin and August) Who are they?
Alexander Vanidestine
That man over their is your uncle. And the kid is your brother.
Martin Vance/Fl's uncle
(too shocked to say anything)
Little Irene
What is it? You saw ghost? (expressionless)
Martin Vance/Fl's uncle
(pulls her in for a hug as his tears rolled down)
Martin Vance/Fl's uncle
I'm sorry, I lost control over my emotions.
Little August
She's just like Mom. Same facial features, and she talks to you just like her.
Martin Vance/Fl's uncle
That was also the reason why I lost my cool just now.
Little Irene
Speaking of which, where's Mom? I've not seen her since I'm here.
Hearing her words, four of them went silent. They didn't know how to answer that question, to which even they don't know the answer..
Little August
Mom is gone.
Little Irene
(frowns) Is she on a trip to somewhere?
Martin Vance/Fl's uncle
(holds her little hands) You can say that. She's gone on a business trip and it's going to take some time before she returns.
Little Irene
Is Mom in Army or something?
Martin Vance/Fl's uncle
Something like that. She was the Director of the medical department in the Army. I don't know about her current post tho.
Little Irene
Oh, quite a lot of work. Is she doing well then?
Now, this was a question which overwhelmed them..
August, the little boy, was even holding back his tears
Martin Vance/Fl's uncle
I guess.. I've not heard from her for a long time. (controlling his emotions)
Little Irene
Ah? Why? (clueless)
Martin Vance/Fl's uncle
She is on a secret mission, i guess. So it's taking her sometime to contact us.
Little Irene
Oh. Then i hope she is doing well. Maybe she is on the final step of the mission and will come home soon.😄
As Alexander heard her naive words, his eyes started to sting..
Little Irene
Eh? Dad? Are you crying?
Little Irene
Your eyes are red.
Alexander Vanidestine
Maybe it's the dust. I've dust allergy. (rubs his eyes) I'll go and get my eyes treated first. (gets up and leaves)
Little Irene
..Is Dad upset? I said something wrong?
Martin Vance/Fl's uncle
No. It's just that..he loves your Mom beyond imagination. Hearing you say that, be couldn't control himself. He's also missing her and worried for her safety, right?
Little Irene
Oh..(saw August's teary eyes) You also miss Mom?
Little August
(nods) It's been three years since I last saw her..(rubbing his eyes)
Little Irene
The time I was born? (looks at Martin)
Martin Vance/Fl's uncle
We adviced her not to take any missions but she didn't listen. 15 days after you were born, she left for her mission.
Little Irene
That's good. Otherwise I would feel guilty that she was delayed because of me. (smiles)
Martin Vance/Fl's uncle
(couldn't control) (abruptly gets up) You guys go to the dining hall. I'll come back from washroom. (leaves)
Little August
Let's go, Irene.
Little Irene
Okay. (smiles)
