"I want to see my grandfather, and you won't stop me. I have every right to be here since I'm a Peterson too. I also want to ask Grandpa for a favor, and-"

""Let me quee

guess," James interrupted her. "You want an Ice Sapphire? That new and expensive jewel from the latest company collection, the one you want to show off at your graduation or some school party to make everyone think you're related to us and not just adopted." "Jerk," she spat through gritted teeth.

"If that's it, I'm sorry to tell you it's not going to happen because all the pieces we created sold out when they launched two days ago," Erika stated. "But if you'd like, I can put in an order for a Spring Sapphire from the Fine Fantasy collection. We still have a few pieces of that model left."

"Fantasy?" she repeated, frowning. "Are you crazy?" she complained before turning her head to look at her father. "Dad, you promised me a real, expensive jewel for my graduation."

"Yes.. it's clear you've raised your daughter well, Roger James mocked with sarcasm.

""You little..."

"Hey, don't you dare call my dad by his name! That's disrespectful!"

"I'll call him whatever I want because that's a man I will never respect."

"James, calm down. Don't set a bad example for your siblings," Erika scolded him, even though she felt like responding the same way to the girl. This wasn't the first or the last time she'd come here throwing a tantrum. "And Roger, control your daughter."

"No one needs to control me! Besides, I have every right to complain because they let others into this place instead of us, who are family, and-" the black-haired girl started saying.

"Actually, Nicole and Michael are more my nephews than you are," at that moment, the elevator doors opened, revealing Elliot, accompanied by Howard, Elizabeth, and George. "Grandpa!" The black-haired woman tried to approach the elderly man but stopped when she saw a blonde teenage girl hugging him.

"Stop saying nonsense, Elliot. They're not-"

"I've watched all my grandchildren grow, and as I told you before, I will not recognize your daughter as my legitimate granddaughter," George stated. "You might have given her the family name, but that doesn't entitle her to anything because I disinherited you." "Grandpa..."

"Miss, he's not your grandfather, so don't call him that," Howard declared, frowning.

"It seems your son is just like you," Roger mocked.

"That's right, and he's my pride," George said, looking fondly at his ten-year-old grandson. "So, are you Teaving, or do we throw you out?"

"But, Uncle"

"Cassandra, I'm not your uncle... don't call me that. And if you want jewelry, buy it with your own money or ask your dad to pay for it, because you won't get anything from us for free."

Both Roger and Cassandra looked at the others angrily, but when security arrived, they decided to leave on their own rather than be thrown out of the company in a humiliating way.

"And as for you two," James started saying as he stepped away from his little siblings to look them in the eyes. "What you did was very dangerous. What have I told you about those electric pranks?" "Sorry, brother.." Nicole began to tear up at the scolding.

"But it's just that woman started it, and..." Michael also looked a bit sad because of the scolding.

"Even so, what you did was wrong. What if you really hurt her, huh?"

"We're sorry..." they said, starting to cry.

"Come on, James, don't be so hard on them," Elizabeth said, approaching to hug them I

"Elizabeth, don't encourage them. That was dangerous, and..."

"They did it out of revenge because that crazy woman hurt Anton,"

"Ah... even so, you know what Mom and Dad think about these pranks."

"We're sorry, brother... sniff..."

James just grimaced and knelt, extending his arms, which was the signal for the twins to run and give him, a big hug.

"My grandson is as straight-laced as ever," George said, looking proudly at the great man James was becoming.

"God.. now I really think it was even more damaging that Roger adopted that girl because he made her just like him: envious and ambitious," Elliot commented angrily.

"Uncle is bad," Howard said.

"I know, son," Erika said, coming over to hug him. "And you know, I kind of pity that girl because she's going to learn the hard way that the world won't give her everything she wants whenever she wants it." "Leave it be; that's not our problem," Elliot said before letting out a sigh and looking at the four siblings. Now, why don't you tell me what brings us this delightful visit?"

"We came to get James," Michael said.

"We're going shopping for the beach!" Nicole announced excitedly.

"Oh, the famous dream vacation," George said, noticing the excitement in the younger ones as they began telling him about the plans they'd made for their much-deserved family vacation.
