Chapter 6 Surprising Rory
'Enemies crossing on a narrow road.' But Tinsley never expected that she'd be meeting with the William and Norton family this soon. So this saying was right.
"Mom?" Mason called when he saw his mother still staring at the crowd, refusing to enter the car even though she had opened it.
Tinsley regained her sanity with that call, "I'm sorry, baby." Tinsley immediately replied and quickly sat in the car but not before sweeping Conrad and Lillee a quick gaze.
Conrad and Lillee were busy replying to fans with a smile so none of them had paid attention to Tinsley which was quite nice.
Tinsley will be busy for a while considering that she has many things to do in Ryle's country so gaining attention from the William and Norton family isn't on her agenda yet but the time to settle them isn't far too.
Tinsley clenched her fist but snapped out of the loathful feeling that was battling with her when she remembered that she was in front of the children. She quickly closed the door and instructed the driver to begin driving.
"Mom, is Aunt Rory here? I miss her." Ariel said while climbing on Tinsley in order to sit on Tinsley's lap.
Tinsley used her hand to comb Ariel's hair neatly and smiled at her, "Yes. We are going over to her place. She's expecting us." Tinsley explained which made the children yell happily for a while.
"Mom. Snacks. Snacks." The Triplets started staring at her with puppy eyes because they knew that they'd eaten more than they should when they were on the plane, so they knew that Tinsley wouldn't give them one anymore.
Feeling overwhelmed by the cuteness of the puppy eyes directed at her, Tinsley sighed and pulled the triplet's cheeks playfully. "Fine, you won!" Tinsley said with a sigh which made the Triplets yell happily. Seeing the Triplets eating their respective favorite snacks, Tinsley directed her gaze out of the car.
She stretched her hand out and smiled at the incoming breeze. Ryle is really a neat and beautiful country.
Various posters of celebrity advertisements decorated the road, some of which Lillee and Conrad were on.
Lillee had become one of the top celebrities in Ryle due to the incident seven years ago and Lillee had used that free publicity to act in a movie that ended up as a successful project.
Lillee and the William's family gained a lot from ruining Tinsley's reputation and future but none of them care about what had happened to Tinsley afterwards.
Throughout Tinsley's stay abroad, she never received a call from her so-called family. Perhaps, they expected her to be dead. She thought with a chuckle.
Suddenly, Tinsley's heart skipped a beat when her eyes went across a billboard. There was Jarek in one of the advertisements, he was looking cold and serious sitting on a chair. And that image sent shivers down her spine.
"Mom. Wow. Who's that handsome uncle?" Her Triplets suddenly pointed at the Jarek in the advertisement which made her gulp. She never knew they were watching the billboards with her.
So what should she tell them? Could she tell them he was their father? Considering her children's actions, she knew they'd ask her to take them to Jarek, they'd want to 'teach' Jarek a lesson thinking he dumped her.
"That... He's... he's a famous businessman." Tinsley muttered with a stutter and then quickly shut the window.
The Triplets looked at each other and exchanged an undecipherable glance quietly.
30 minutes later, the car came to a stop at an expensive villa.
"Yay." The Triplets yelled happily which made Tinsley sigh. She wondered if they ever got low on energy.
They'd just gotten down from the plane, but they had no sign of jetlag, only an indescribable excitement.
They all got out of the car while the driver drove the car to the villa park.
"Open up, Rory." Tinsley rang the bell with a smiling expression.
Rory furrowed her brows because she wasn't expecting anyone, but she still dropped all that she was doing and walked over to open the door.
A gasp fell from her lips upon seeing who was at the door.
Rory rubbed her eyes dramatically, "Am I dreaming?" She asked in a not-quite-loud voice which made them chuckle.
"Certainly not. Let us in." Tinsley said with a smile which made Rory hug her deeply.
"You..." Rory bit her lips hard not wanting to let out any profanity in front of the little kids.
"How dare you come to Ryle without telling me? Come in." Rory said and immediately bent toward the triplet.
"It's a surprise."
Tinsley and Rory entered the villa with the triplet while the servants in Rory's house immediately carried Tinsley and the triplet's luggage into the villa. "Hey, babies."
"Aunt Rory." The triplet hugged her excitedly which made her smile at them. "We missed you." The triplet said.
Rory immediately carried Ariel. "I missed you all. Have you been good to mummy?" She asked, which made the kids nod cutely.
"Yes, aunt." The triplet said.
"But I've been exceptionally good. Snacks. Snacks." Mason demanded in a cute voice which made Rory and Tinsley chuckle.
"Mason never changed. Always finding a chance to rip you off. Sweet little mouth." Rory placed Ariel on the chair and turned to Mason in order to carry him.
"Ey. No!!!" Mason immediately yells in protest while ducking away from her stretched arms.
"I'm an adult. You shouldn't carry an adult." Mason yelled while running around the large sitting room.
"Who's been instilling this adult logic into our cute boys?" Rory teased with a chuckle which made Mason huff.
"I'm not a boy. I'm a man." Mason snapped while Ariel and Jason continued to laugh at the ongoing battle with Rory trying to carry Mason.
Rory immediately stopped, not wanting to anger the young Mason anymore. She turned to Tinsley who was looking outside quietly. "I miss you all." She said, which made Tinsley turn back with a smile. "But still, you have to pay for not telling me this." Rory immediately grinned sinisterly.
"It's supposed to be a surprise. I don't pay for surprises, and they've been many times you also sneaked up on us. Don't tell me I should demand those from you?" Tinsley arched her brows, which made Rory scoff.
"Fine, you won! Congratulations on having another bestseller to your name."
