"If you Maximillians don't like new family members, why don't you just leave it to us? I'd rather Chloe be a part of Michelle, instead" Ivy's words suddenly made all the pairs of eyes in the room look at her.
"....!"
Everyone was flabbergasted at Ivy's words, Revan clenched his hand. I hope what he heard was wrong.
"Ivy! Whatchu mean! She's been declared a part of Maximillian, how can you just ask her to be a part of Michelle, and she doesn't have a blood relationship with us!" Bentak Revan disagrees with Ivy.
"We too, don't we, do you think we Michelle have a blood relationship too?! We are not blood at all!" Reply Ivy back snapped, Now her gaze sharpened.
The Michelle fell silent, their youngest sister. Ivy Michelle who usually looks shy and reserved, now looks different in their eyes. Azura stared softly.
"Ivy, we Michelle are still blood because we have the same mother even though our fathers are different," Azura smiled gently which made Ivy look at her in shock.
Rafael and the others gasped, and Al looked at Azura.
"Azura! Why did you tell Ivy?!" Al said sharply.
Azura still maintained her gentle smile before replying. "It's time we told you this, I feel sorry Ivy's the only one who doesn't know we're one mother but another father,"
"Azura." Ash stared from afar in a soft voice, But he said nothing afterwards.
Ivy was still staring in shock, Now both of her hands were gripping the pants she was wearing tightly. For a moment his head fell down miserably until it finally opened its voice.
"So so...The color of our hair and eyes is different. In Michelle's family there is no one who has purple hair color other than me, Even the eye color of Azura and Rafael's brother is the same. Why is it that only my eyes are purple?!"
"Ivy, Look my eyes are purple just like you, while your hair color is from your real father" explained Al as he pointed at his own eyes.
"It doesn't feel the same!" Netra Ivy began to glaze over, The brothers stared sadly unable to do anything.
Michelle has one mother but they have many fathers. And at this time the feelings of the Michelle brothers began to waver because they felt confused including blood or not.
"Well, sister drama is starting again in Michelle's family yes," Vallen as usual showed her friendly smile, Clapping her hands as if to make the Michelle brothers aware of their existence (Maximillian brother).
"Huh! Poor thing, you Michelle have one mother but many fathers. Doesn't that sound like a family disgrace? Your mother was having an affair with another man. That means you're bastard?" Xavier snorted as he crossed his arms, With a cold look.
Hearing Xavier's words made the blood in Raphael boil, his blue Netra sharpened like an eagle. Sontak Rafael stood with his hands clenched. Now his expression was filled with anger.
"Pull your fucking words! How dare you call us family disgrace! At least we're still better and pure Michelle than the 4 of you from the orphanage! You're just adopted kids and lower than trash!" Rafael's snapping with rage.
The emotional Leo stood up and confirmed Rafael's words. "That's right! You're not really pure Maximillian, if Ray's father hadn't adopted you from the orphanage, you would be homeless! The work you are getting right now is not your real hard work, it is thanks to Brother Ray's father who sought it for you! You should be thanking me instead of being arrogant!"
Vallen's smile faded, He stared with a hard-to-understand look. While Xavier let out a gloomy aura, his green Netra flashed with rage. Unlike Alex, who stood up, both hands clenched with small teeth. He stepped up to beat Leo or Rafael but was immediately banned by Xavier who was nearby without saying anything.
Xavier pulls out a gun tucked away behind his brown suit, pointing right in front of Michelle brother with a cold look.
"Your words I think are over the line, quickly apologize! I don't hesitate to shoot you one by one if you don't do it right away. And one more thing, I don't care what you say about us or about the new family member. No one expected her presence among the 4 of us except for Ray's sister, so stop talking about the kid!" Xavier said he was still holding his gun which left the Michelle brothers wide in shock.
BRACKET!
"You're crazy! What kind of cop are you?!" Leon snapped furiously while pounding the table in front of him.
"Leon, Relax. Right now they could not be spoken to properly," Whisper Azura beside him, The blue-covered youth with black lines was staring warily.
Revan protects Ivy behind his body, Rafael and Ash and Al close together to protect each other. Vallen chuckled, He took the gun from behind his suit and pointed it right in front of Michelle brother.
"Hehehe, are you afraid? Though only a gun but it's as scared as this," he said mockingly.
Alex sat up and looked down. "While our Maximillian family is outnumbered by you, you cannot underestimate us at will!"
Azura slightly tightened her grip on Leon's arm, Staring warily with a serious look. "They openly showed us their dislike for weapons, they're out of control,"
Aware of none of the responses from the Michelle brothers made Xavier furrow his brows, His gaze returning seriously. "So you guys chose silence? Really arrogant! All right, here's what you want. I'll give it to you,"
Xavier slowly pulls the trigger along with Vallen, while Alex just snorts a little while appreciating the cynicism.
".....!"
DOR'S!

Kenzo checked Ezra's body temperature with medical equipment that he took from the P3K box available in Michelle's mansion and then switched to checking Ezra's heart rate and pulse. After finishing his examination, he exhaled a small breath.
"His fever was too high to make him faint, I've never dealt with a patient with a fever this high," Kenzo thought glancing at Ezra's face that was as pale as white paper, Cold sweat seemed to continue flowing from the green-tinted young man's forehead.
Kenzo took a small cloth that had been dipped in a container of water before, He immediately put it on Ezra's forehead. Hoping that way, his fever could be reduced.
As Kenzo looked at Ezra's weakly lying body, he pondered in silence.
"This man despite having a tough and fierce attitude at the meeting last night, He even blatantly said more trust the child than Brother Eli. He even got a little bit too big on Alex, but even so, the kid still cares about this guy" Kenzo took off his gloves and put them back in the P3K box.
Suddenly the memory of Chloe pleading with him comes to mind. "Until begging me to help this man. The two of them seem very close,"
Kenzo took out a piece of paper and a pen and wrote down a prescription for the drug that Ezra had to take later. After he finished he stepped out of the room while carrying the P3K box.
BLAM!
A second after exiting, Kenzo saw Chloe standing next to the wall. The girl seemed to lean on her body while looking at the window frame, gazing at the outside scenery. Her clothes were still filled with red stains, Since then the girl had not moved at all from her place.
Kenzo stepped closer and cleared her throat to wake the girl from her daydream, Chloe flinched a little before her gaze shifted to Kenzo. When he stood up straight, his expression came back anxious.
"How's my friend doing?" He looked at Kenzo.
"His temperature is very high, I suspect due to fatigue plus he was exposed to rain yesterday. His heart was beating weakly, his condition was really bad. I suggest you buy this medicine so he can take it when he wakes up" Kenzo handed him a prescription he just wrote.
Chloe's facial wrinkle turned moody, She accepted the recipe with sadness. "Thank you, as I promised. You can ask for anything,"
Kenzo was silent for a moment, looking at Chloe for a moment. He walked past Chloe without saying anything.
A second later he stopped his steps. "Stay away from Brother Ray and the Maximillian Family, even though brother Ray wants you to return to our family after so many years of disappearance. My brothers and I chose no! I think it's too fast and sudden,"
"You who came out of nowhere were suddenly present in our family. We don't need any new family members, so you better just go and stay away from Ray. My request is just that, Think carefully," Kenzo added, continuing in his footsteps, Leaving Chloe standing on the doorstep.
"....."
Chloe lowered her head, tightly grasping the recipe in her hand. He turned to open the door to Ezra's room before entering it.
Chloe saw Ezra lying weakly, The young man's face was very pale. He slowly took a chair nearby and sat down beside Ezra's bed. Chloe went back to check the temperature of the young man's body, clutching his high-temperature hand.
"It's very hot, just this time I saw Mr. Ezra sick. Is it because she now lives alone in the dorm, so no one pays attention to her health? You liar, say it without me taking care of my own health. But it still hurts" Chloe snorted, She pulled her hand back. Looking at Ezra's face.
"I didn't think Mr. Ezra was sick, he could lose control like that and be more honest with his feelings. Can pain affect someone? Raizel was sick as well as Mr. Ezra, He came to my room suddenly and immediately hugged me, "Chloe remembered Raizel when Raizel was sick in the dormitory, He acted strangely and raved indistinctly.
Speaking of childhood friends, in fact he also met Ezra when he was a child. It feels unbelievable but Chloe just got a memory of her memories with Ezra last night. Plus his reunion with Aiden while with Ezra made Chloe feel sad, Ah again he remembered with the members of the dorm.
His teary-eyed Netre wanted to cry again but he immediately wiped it rough with his sleeves, His gaze again fixed on Ezra who was still unconscious.
"Sir, I'll go first. It won't be long, I just want to buy some medicine for you" said Chloe, but she knew Ezra couldn't hear it.
The girl climbed up, but her steps came to a halt after realizing her shoulder was throbbing pain. Chloe looked at some of her clothes that were stained with blood. Ah, he forgot not to treat his open wound and change his clothes.
Chloe hurried out of the room and rushed towards her room to clean up.

PRANGS!
".....!"
Rafael silently pecked after the vase next to him broke into pieces, The Michelle brothers stared at the incident in surprise. The whole room is silent.
Kenzo who had just arrived on the ground floor was also silent to see the incident, his gaze was fixed on Xavier who was still holding a gun.
"Sadly, it missed. Looks like I still have to hone my shooting skills," Xavier said tucked a mocking tone in his voice. He kept his gun back.
"Ah, what a pity, brother. Though a little more," Vallen shook his head softly, Secretly smiling coldly. "It's my turn now,"
Ivy's body trembled violently, with the incident making her even more frightened. He gripped Revan's clothes protecting him tightly.
"Sister Revan..," Lirih Ivy was terrified.
"It's okay, Stay behind big brother," Whispered Revan slowly, Making his own body as a friend.
Leo who was standing by the table immediately picked up Al's glass, and threw all his might at Vallen. Vallen swiftly pointed his gun at the glass, shooting as fast as lightning.
DOR'S!
PRANGS!
DOR'S!
Shoot a second at Leo, which immediately Azura pulled Leo and Leon to duck so that the bullet again missed. So did Rafael, Ash, and Al. The three reflexively hide behind the sofa, while Revan immediately hugs Ivy so that Ivy is not hit by the shot.
Vallen intended to fire his bullet again, but suddenly a strong wind blew around them and a kick out of nowhere hit his hand hard enough to make the gun in his hand loose.
THE DUAK!
THE TRACK!
Vallen widened his eyes in surprise, The pain instantly radiated from his hand towards the arm. The reflex he held his own hand held back the pain, his young brown Netra looked for who the mastermind who kicked his hand earlier.
Kenzo even froze because of the strong wind that passed him earlier. While Xavier immediately stood up after seeing the incident, his frowning found Chloe standing silently in front of them.
Feeling safe, the Michelle brothers came out of their respective hiding places. Ivy stared stunned after Chloe's presence there.
"Is this the girl who kicked Vallen's arm earlier? It's impossible, isn't it impossible?!" Thought Alex was staring alertly.
Chloe picked up Vallen's gun lying right under her feet, her expression looking gloomy as she looked at the gun.
"You dare kick me! And give me back the gun!" Vallen resentfully snatches his gun from Chloe's hands.
"I didn't mean it" Chloe replied softly, But she was actually intentional in order for Vallen not to make more messes.
"Truly don't know manners! Do you know the limit to not meddling in other people's affairs!" Xavier said coldly.
"Who is involved? Than to take care of your enmity. I'd better go out and buy some medicine for Mr. Ezra, "Chloe replied, Now the aura is turning grim. His mood got worse after hearing Xavier's words.
"Is the pain that bad? What pain is he?" Alex approached Chloe asking for an answer, Now her gaze turned anxious.
"Flam...,"
After answering Chloe stepped away past Alex, Michelle brother and Maximillian brother. Grimly he opened the mansion door.
"Chloe, can I come?" Pinta Ivy looks at Chloe's back.
"Ivy!" Tegur Revan disagreed, He stared in annoyance.
"Stay here, it'll be dangerous outside if you come with me. Not knowing when, the woman would show up again," Without turning her head Chloe stepped out leaving the Michelle and Maximillian brothers there.
BLAM!
After Chloe's death, the atmosphere of the room was silent for a moment until Rafael broke the silence with his flat look.
"The boy has been acting strange since his friend was here" said Rafael in surprise.
"He just needs some time alone, I think he's been feeling tired lately. Don't bother her too much," Ash let out a small sigh, To be honest she felt sorry for Chloe who seemed to be carrying a heavy burden.
Taps! Taps! Taps!
"What's going on here? Why is everything falling apart?"
The familiar voice suddenly made the Michelle and Maximillian brothers jerk, They simultaneously turned to look for the source of the sound.
Ray and Elizabeth stood near them, their faces shocked and in disbelief.
"Damn! We haven't had time to clean up this mess" thought Alex in a panic.
"Finally, Brother Ray and Brother Eli are here," thought Ivy trembling in fear, It seems that after this they will be scolded all out by the two heads of the family of Michelle and Maximillian.
