Chapter 4

She couldn't help but beam with pride when she thought of her three boys-they were her everything.

Elliot was the epitof a little gentleman. He might not have been a chatterbox, but when he did speak, it was

with the wisdom and emotional intelligence of someone beyond his years. He carried himself with the air of a

natural-born leader, wise and composed.-

On the flip side, Evan was the family firecracker-lively, energetic, and always up for mischief. His passions and

dreams were simple: to get involved in a fight. And his wildest dream was that he’d be the undefeated champion

of the world.

Emmett was the tenderheart of the trio. Though a bit shy and not quite as quick as his older brothers, he had a

knack for warming hearts. At such a young age, he was already a whiz in the kitchen, whipping up the most

scrumptious dishes that would put any diner to shame.

And talk about a flair for style-the cologne Elysia used was his own special concoction. Just hand him a few fruits

or a bouquet of flowers, and he’d create a one-of-a-kind fragrance that was all natural, with no artificial scents,

just the pure notes of blooms and fruits.

And let's not forget his creative genius. Emmett could sketch out designs for clothes and jewelry as easily as

most kids would draw stick figures. Elysia often thought how lucky the person who ended up with her Emmett

would be.

She looked at Emmett with a smile full of tenderness.

“Alright, sweetie, I'll take you there. Elliot, Evan, do you guys need to use the restroom before we go?”

Elliot and Evan shook their heads in unison, their voices overlapping, “Nope, we're good!”

“Then you two wait here for Mommy and your brother. Don’t wander off; I'm going to take Emmett to the

bathroom.”

“Okay.”

Elysia took Emmett’s hand and they headed towards the facilities. At the door, she knelt down to remind him,

“Emmett, you go to the boys’ room, and I'll be in the ladies’. If you finish first, just wait right here for me.”

“Okay,” Emmett nodded obediently and scurried into the men’s room.

Elysia watched him go with a smile, then turned to enter the women's restroom.

Soon enough, Emmett cout, standing exactly where he was told and waiting patiently for his mother.

Suddenly, a group of burly bodyguards approached, and they were surrounding a

glamorously dressed woman. She was hidden behind oversized sunglasses, her lips a bright slash of red, and she

was clearly in a foul mood.

“I'm done with these low-budget gigs. Trekking out to the middle of nowhere to shoot, then. taking a train back

because there's no airport? Does that suit someone of my caliber? Look at the kind of people you find on trains-

no class, no money, absolutely revolting!” Nola Slater's voice carried and caused onlookers to frown.

Her agent was nodding frantically to soothe her, while the bodyguards roughly cleared a path, “Move it! Step

aside!”

Poor Emmett, caught off guard, was shoved heavily aside and fell to the ground with a thud. He was hurt and on

the verge of tears but too scared to make a sound.

“Whose kid is this? Get out of the way!” Nola barked.

Frozen with fear, Emmett sat on the floor and covered his mouth; his eyes, brimming with tears, were looking up

at Nola Slater, and he was too terrified to move.

Nola’s gaze hardened when she saw Emmett, a bitter reminder of her own troubles. With a venomous tone, she

snapped, “If you know you're blocking the way, move it! How do your parents teach you? You are so

mannerless!”

She then kicked Emmett with the tip of her high heel and strutted away.

Emmett burst into tears, crying out, “Mommy, brothers, it hurts...”

Elysia was still inside, but Elliot and Evan, hearing the commotion, rushed over. Seeing their little brother in

distress, Evan was instantly enraged.

“What happened, Emmett? What's wrong?”

Emmett cried harder as he saw his brothers. He was trembling and sobbing while stuttering, “That... that lady

kicked me... it hurts...”

Evan's temper flared. No one messes with his little brother!

“Elliot, watch Emmett. I'm gonna make her pay!”

With that, Evan bolted off into the crowd, determined to find justice for Emmett.
