[ TrisZhen Villa… ]
Christian just got home. He felt exhausted for his first day. Socializing with people was harder than doing all the paper works and reviewing the project documents and proposals.
Fortunately, Blue, the tiger, was there to keep him company. He would play with him during his break time.
Christian was surprised the moment he entered the house, a confetti fell from above. Then his great-grandpa suddenly showed up, coming out of his hiding spot.
"Congratulation my great Tian! You survived your first day as the New CEO of Heavenly Star!" Grandpa Lu congratulated Christian, hugging him.
Christian could only smile as his great-grandpa made an effort of preparing tonight. He saw the meal being served on the table. They were the only two people in the house right now as Cassie would be staying in the Training Camp.
"Gramps, are you so happy that I become a CEO?" Christian could only shake his head.
"Of course, have you chosen a secretary?" Grandpa Lu asked while pulling him towards the dining area.
Christian scratched the back of his head. He still couldn't decide whom he would choose as secretary. He scanned the applicants' profiles but he was still hesitant to hire any of them.
With his expression, Grandpa Lu already knew that Christian couldn't decide yet. "Give me the list. I can help you with that."
Since his great-grandson was an introvert, Grandpa Lu was thinking of choosing someone who is bubbly and cheerful. Someone who could influence Christian to open up with others. Someone who would help him in mingling and socializing with others. And most of all, someone who has a pleasing personality. A woman perhaps?
Grandpa Lu grinned widely at his thoughts. He was excited to see his great-grandson improve in socializing with people. Gain more friends and date!
'My great-grandson is so different from his father. Tristan is very friendly and approachable with others, including women. But Christian is very aloof and indifferent.
"Tiger Blue!" Grandpa Lu almost forgot about Blue. He just noticed him when the tiger nuzzled his nose at his feet. Grandpa Lu patted its head.
"Gramps, how's Cassie?" Christian was worried about his twin sister, or rather, he was worried about others. His sister was a troublemaker. He was afraid that Cassie would stir the Training Camp.
Grandpa Lu just laughed at him. He knew what Christian was thinking. "Don't worry about her. Your sister will not create trouble this time. Your sister has been wishing to be a member of Fiery Eagles. Because of that, she will behave."
Christian fell silent for a moment. He somehow knew why Cassie wanted to join the secret task force of the Davis Family.
'It's because of him. That guy is a member of our task force. Will she be alright?' Christian knew Flint and he was aware that Flint has a crush on their Aunt Ella. And Cassie didn't have any idea about this.
Christian didn't want to hurt his sister's feelings, that's why he chose not to tell her. Besides, he didn't know how he would deal with her once his sister became depressed and sad.
"Come, let's eat. Don't think about Cassie. Your Twin could handle things herself," Grandpa Lu invited his great-grandson to eat.
Grandpa Lu, Christian, and Blue had their meal together. After that Christian did his daily routine, going to the library.
Inside the library, Christian has a favorite spot where he would spend one to three hours reading a book.
Christian watched the family portrait– Tristan, Zhen-Zhen, Cassie, and him. FaMo, Miho, Blue, and Scarlet were also included in the photo. It was taken a long time ago. For some unknown reason, he suddenly missed his parents. They were out of town for a long time, looking for Liam's cure.
A sullen look could be seen in his eyes as he glanced at his hands. He felt like he couldn't help his parents as he already lost his supernatural power.
Sometimes, he would feel jealous of Cassie but he was not showing it to everyone. Though he didn't regret giving up his power, he missed using his fire power. Unlike Cassie, Christian could no longer fly.
Christian was lost in his thoughts when he suddenly felt Blue pressing his head on Christian's thigh. Blue could sense his negative emotions right now. He was trying to comfort him.
"Blue, don't worry. I'm not sad. It's a good thing that I can experience living as a normal person. Did you see my sister? Scarlet and Cassie are always creating trouble."
Blue bobbed his head, his eyes gleaming with joy. He agreed to Christian's remarks. After a while, an idea popped into his mind.
"Do you want to check Cassie and Scarlet?" Christian asked Blue. The tiger just nodded its head.
Without further ado, Christian pushed a certain book name EAGLES in the bookshelves. Then suddenly, a secret door slid open.
Christian and Blue entered the secret room. There was an eye-scanner on the steel door. Only Christian was allowed to enter that room and had special access.
When the door was unlocked, Christian and Blue proceeded inside. Numerous monitors could be seen on the left side corner of the room. There was also different computer equipment.
"Welcome, Master Zero!" a robotic voice was heard, resounding inside the room. "Hello, Blue," the voice also greeted Blue. A hologram of a man appeared at the center of the room.
Christian was the new Zero. The overall leader of the Fiery Eagles. His identity was still hidden from them. Even Cassie had no idea about this.
"Hello, Atlas." Christian greeted the hologram back.
"Please show me the live recordings of CCTV cameras around the Fiery Eagles' Training Camp," Christian said, commanding the AI.
It did not take long when the monitors were automatically turned on and a series of shots flashed on the screen.
Christian automatically searched for Cassie. His eyebrow twitched and was drawn together as soon as he saw what Cassie was currently doing. Cassie just left her designated station as if she was looking for someone.
Christian narrowed his eyes upon seeing her. "What is she trying to do? Don't make any trouble, Cassie."
