Chapter 641 - You’re The Only One
Once they landed, Kay led the kids out.
Everything seemed so surreal to Lianne.
The first-class flight, the way everyone treated them because of Mama and Kay.
Now, they were in an entirely new country.
Traveling overseas was something that they hardly did due to their financial constraints. Now they had landed, Joseph and Lianne were busy processing everything that they saw with wonder.
Lianne had spent the time on the plane digging up more information about her mother in her new life and was extremely impressed. It was like some fairy-tale story.
The things she had done, and gone through, in order to survive and eventually, come back to them. Lianne felt utterly warm at that, and also sad when she thought of the things her mother must have gone through.
After all, she had only 'lost' her mother for a week or so. Her mother, on the other hand, had lost them for 19 years.
She could hardly imagine the sort of pain that her mother must have gone through.
Things looked pretty good now though. Lianne hoped that life, for her mother, can now move on once she had settled her revenge.
Still, she wondered what would happen after all of it was over. Her father was back in Country M and her mother was a guy in Country Tz. Would her mother stay in Country M? Lianne was a bit sad thinking about the future and the future separation.
Lianne took a deep breath and forced herself to think of something else.
She needed to focus on something else for otherwise, she would start getting depressed and think of all sorts of possibilities - all negative.
It was what Dr. Marveen had told her to do. Her tendency to think of all the endless possibilities and then get depressed over them was something that she had to stop doing. She had to live for the here and now, and take one day at a time.
It wasn't easy.
The only thing right now that could distract her from having dark thoughts was … thinking about Mama's Elite Team. Would her people here be as good looking?
Her current favourite was Zero, who was so soft-spoken and rather shy, yet so serious. Once they unboarded the plane, Lianne put on her earphones and surrounded herself with familiar music to help her distract herself from overthinking and lift her mood.

"Are they out yet? Where are they? Why aren't they out yet?" Xing Han was mumbling non-stop as he craned his neck to try and look inside.
Beatrice rolled her eyes at that, and replied calmly, "They just landed, Xing Han. Taking into account the time it needs for the plane to go to a complete stop, to leave the plane, get through immigration and finally, out here, it would at least be 15 minutes."
"But they are in first-class!" Xing Han argued, "Should be much faster than that. They would be the first one out and? there's no check-in baggage, right?"
"They are only teens, Xing Han," Beatrice said patiently, "And this is their first time in Country Tz. I'm sure they're taking in all the sights while on the way."
Zack and Yuri were smiling.
Well, Zack was having this huge grin while Yuri was just giving a small smile.
"That's right," Zack said, inching in closer to Beatrice, bringing his face closer to her, "Such an observant and clever lady."
Beatrice's eye twitched and she took a step to the side, only to clash shoulders with Yuri.
She turned to face him in annoyance, and stepped back, only to hit Zack's solid chest.
"Will both of you stop it!" Beatrice said, turning to face them and putting her hands on her waist.
"Stop what?" Yuri asked innocently.
Beatrice turned to Xing Han and said, "Xing Han, control your minions here."
Xing Han shrugged, "They aren't my minions. They're Nic's."
"What is Nic's, is yours, right?" Beatrice pointed out.
"Yes, but they don't listen to me," Xing Han said, dismissing Beatrice's complaint, "They're mine to use, but not order around."
"Little Boss is the best," Zack said with a grin, "He understands us so well."
Beatrice's eye twitched again, and Xing Han gave her a small apologetic smile.
He patted her on the shoulder and said, "Look, they are harmless. If they ever go overboard, tell me and I'll tell Nic, okay?"
Zack and Yuri looked hurt.
"We'd never do anything to harm Beatrice," Zack said.
"Duh," Xing Han said with a roll of his eyes and waved them dismissively, "Otherwise, do you think you'd still be here?"
Yuri hit Zack at the back of his head, "Stupid."
"You're stupid," Zack growled.
Beatrice shook her head at their antics and they immediately stopped, looking a bit worriedly at each other. They could not afford to give a first bad impression to their woman - ignoring entirely that that part was a bit too late.
Zack slid up closer to Beatrice, saying, "We'll be good, I promise."
"We won't ever do anything to make you unhappy," Yuri said.
Beatrice glared at their identical faces and with a huff, she finally said what had been on her mind ever since that first day they had met.
"Why do you like to tease me so much?"
"Because your expressions are so adorable," Zack said with a huge grin.
"Well, stop it," Beatrice said with a frown, "Other girls may like all the attention that you give, but I don't."
"What other girls?" Yuri asked, tilting his head.
Beatrice scoffed at him, "Seriously? You expect me to believe that all of this .."
She gestured the two of them from top to toe with her hands, "... is pure and there aren't girls swarming around you guys?"
"Of course not," Zack replied, not denying it.
Yuri looked at her seriously, "But you're the only one we actually wanted."
Beatrice's heart skipped a beat.
