The Journey
The Part 27
"wouldn't it be quite embarrassing if people out there find out if two heirs of Italian nobility fight in a bar without a care" Mr. andreas who broke the silence that occurred after allowing the two heirs to sit with the best quality wine in front of them.
"excuse us for our sassness Mr. andreas, lady andreas" said James politely, with a casual wave of Mr. andreas' hands
"nah well no need to be formal so, just relax" said Mr. andreas with a little bit of oddity
The room went back into silence after that, no one spoke at all. Mr. Andrew's forehead throbbed softly at the silence that happened to meekly which made him accept the views of the other four people in the room, finally Mr. andreas decided the gripping silence by doing the stale remarks on the two young men sitting in front of him.
"are you on vacation?" ask Mr. andreas
"ahs... I'm here to pick up my friend" Thomas said in a formal tone and slightly pressed as he said 'friend'
"don't don't don't talk formally, just relax. If I can assume the friend you're referring to is heir adam, am I right?" said Mr. andreas with a faint smile and a small nod by Thomas
"looking at you, it's like looking at me and my best friend when we were your age, we fought over a woman to the point of putting our friendship at risk. But he desperately caught up with me who was in Las Vegas and took me home to Italy by force" Mr. andreas with a small laugh when he remembered the event that was not far away arguing with the two young men who were sitting in front of him.
Irene's forehead throbbed for a moment when she heard the short story of the grandfather who had past events similar to the problems of the two heirs of the Italian nobility in front of him.
"i never knew what happened" Irene said slowly but of course she could be heard by the grandfather who still had very healthy hearing
"of course, the grandpa never told you that" said Mr. andreas still with his small laugh at seeing Irene's forehead throbbing from thinking, irene who heard the words of the grandfather just nodded - nodding her head slowly but still looking elegant.
"you have to solve your problems with a cool head, try to listen from each side maybe it's just a misunderstanding" said Mr. andreas in a soft tone of voice made irene look at the grandfather strangely
"i think grandpa was drunk, daniel called uncle lee to bring grandpa home" said Irene who was directly carried out by daniel, while Mr. andreas now only glared horror to his only granddaughter.
"i'm sure grandpa was drunk, so go home and let irene continue" Irene said with an inexplicable glance
Right after Irene said that the door of the room opened slowly with Daniel and a middle-aged man who was a personal assistant to mr. Andreas, who was called Uncle Lee, entered the room politely. Mr. andreas who saw that of course protested to irene if he did not want to go home but how else Irene had ordered daniel and uncle lee to bring Mr.'s body. andreas was forced to take home because of the word 'drunk' from their young Miss.
"all right I'll give you a minute to straighten out your problems" Irene said as she moved away from the luxurious sofa she was sitting on a moment ago. Irene was about to pass away as her wrist was being held by someone, irene turned her gaze to the person holding her wrist. Seeing the person with the view of the list makes the person immediately feel nervous
"ah. ah. sorry lady andreas, forgive my disrespect" said thomas stammered as he felt he had done a very disrespectful thing to irene, irene nodded at a glance in response to the apology from thomas.
"why?" Irene asked briefly and do not forget the tone of her flat voice, both thomas and james were initially confused by the question of irene but soon thomas was aware if the question was for him
"um..it can you stay here because I'm not sure if we're going to talk about our problems without damaging anything in this room" thomas said quietly but can still be heard clearly by irene and james
james initially threw his glare at Thomas as a dissent, but he again thought that what Thomas said was certainly right to talk about their problems in a room that was just filled with them was not a good idea. james was not concerned about the price of replacing the damaged objects as well as Thomas who did not think about it, he said, but it is different case if the property they destroy is one of the properties under the family andreas too much risk that they will get besides that their name can be bad in public view.
Irene was silent for a moment while looking at Thomas who was still sitting restlessly, irene's gaze turned towards James who had now lowered his gaze towards the table in front of him to shift his gaze so as not to meet with irene. The room went back into silence for a moment as no one moved from their position in the slightest, james and thomas who were too washed away with a silence gasped in shock upon hearing the voice emanating from before them. Turning her gaze towards the front they could see that Irene had been sitting on their front sofa with her hands engaged on her chest and looking at them with her flat gaze.
"Young lady, this is the data that contains the problems of master adam and lord devons" said daniel, the only person who solved the silence that occurred in the room, irene received the data without turning her flat gaze away from james and thomas. After a few seconds Irene shifted her focus to the data in her hand, reading it slowly with a flat gaze she gave James and Thomas on the sidelines of reading it. Irene's breath sounded so clear in the quiet room it made James and Thomas simultaneously think 'are their problems really big?'.
"let's start, who wants to give an explanation of this matter from his side?" irene asked still in her cold tone and of course james and thomas threw their gazes at each other as if telling each other to go ahead first, again and again Irene again sighed when she saw the behavior of james and thomas who were like children when they did wrong, it took a while for James and Thomas to finally put an end to the debate of views between them.
"i'll do it"
