Reborn : Revenge
CHAPTER 35: NATHALIA'S PARENTS

It's been 2 weeks since the abduction and today is the weekend, Nathalia, Josh, and Zen come to Anna's place to hang out. The three of them met Anna's grandfather for the first time, initially they thought they would feel pressure but they were wrong, Anna's grandfather wasn't too bad in what the public said, either, actually he's gentle as long as you don't make anything that will turn him into what the public says.

As they enjoyed their time together, Nathalia noticed someone who seemed to be very familiar with her. That someone was talking to Anna's mother in the park over tea. He slowly approached the park and tried to eavesdrop on their conversation.

"Something news?" ask Anna's mother.

"No, I'm still trying." Nathalia's eyes widened when she heard the voice, that voice was something she was familiar with clearly, her father's voice. To make sure that her father was talking to Anna's mother, she stretched out her head trying to peek. As he did that, he lost his balance and fell to the ground, the impact hard enough to shock them. "Who's there?" The voice was so cold and Nathalia felt a tremor in her spine.

When Nathalia saw the man's face, she was very sure that it was her father. He never knew that his father could be so cold when speaking, his father's tone of voice whenever he spoke to him was gentle and very loving.

"Hi, father," Nathalia greeted in an awkward tone. Leonardo's expression said that he was surprised to see his only daughter on the ground. Without any interference, he quickly helped Nathalia wake up.

Seeing how worried and caring Leonardo was, Mary now probably guessed it, but she was very surprised by him. He knew that Leonardo loved his only child very much but he never expected that he would show this side of himself to others even to him. Her gentle side was all new to her, she silently took this photo and sent it to Leonardo's wife.

Leonardo heard a laugh behind him, he immediately turned around, he saw that Mary was holding his phone and could already guess what he was doing. After all these years he knew Mary, he knew what tactics were on his mind. Seeing her holding a cell phone, she knew that Mary took a picture from the side she rarely let others see and sent it to someone she didn't know.

"Remove," Leonardo said in a commanding voice.

Mary looked at him and raised her left eyebrow, "Why should I do it? You're not my boss." Mary rebuked in a provocative tone.

Nathalia is confused as she sees her father and Anna's mother coldly talking to each other arguing over the photo Anna's mother took. Although they spoke in such a tone, he could feel that they were quite close to each other and they were already used to it. Nathalia then recalled back at the hospital what Anna's mother had just told her, he said that he knew his parents so it was natural for him to understand that Anna's father and mother were quite close to each other, there was no misunderstanding for that..

Anna who had been paying attention to the whole was seen walking slowly behind Nathalia and hearing what she said. "How's what?" She asked.

Nathalia was startled by the sudden voice behind her. He turned to see Anna behind him smiling as if he had done nothing. "I never knew that our parents would know each other before us. I think the world is small." Saying all this Nathalia felt a little disappointed with her father. She should have at least introduced Anna to him a long time ago so that she would not need to break Anna's wall in her heart little by little now.

"Wait... Your father's uncle Leo?" anna asked, she was quite surprised to learn that the man who was talking to her mother was now Nathalia's father.

"Yes. His last name is Vendallin as my name is, isn't it so obvious."

"Well, I never knew her last name. Because my mom never told me and she just called him Leo, so I called him uncle Leo. I barely even talked to him because he didn't seem to like talking." Anna kept repeating 'Vendallin' in her mind until she suddenly recalled that she knew someone who had the same last name as Nathalia so she asked, "Is Crona Vendallin your mother?" Nathalia nodded in response.

"No wonder I was upset to hear your last name back then." A voice suddenly sounded behind the two girls. It was Aaron and the other two approaching them, Aaron heard their conversation and joined in.

"What do you mean?" Nathalia is obviously upset with Aaron, does she have a grudge against her mother? She's a gentle mother?

"Well, so..." Anna tells Nathalia every detail about why Aaron is upset with his mother.

After hearing Anna's explanation, she felt embarrassed, she knew her mother was obsessed with a certain young model. Her mother talked about the charm of that particular model every day, Nathalia herself had never been interested in such things and never had time to see who her mother always adored. Now that he knows that someone is Aaron, he now understands why his mother has always praised him, Aaron does have a mysterious charm that can leave anyone fascinated.
