Chapter 10 {Outrageous Beast Next Door}

Zeyden stood up as well, a determined look on his face.

"Yeah, we will. We're not going to give up until we find him."

Just then, the door to the bedroom opened and Angelina walked out, her eyes still half-closed with sleep.

Angelina rubbed her eyes, still half-asleep.

"What is it, you two? It's too early for all this noise."

Zeyden and Yue exchanged a glance, both still keeping their secret mission a secret.

"Nothing, Mama," Yue said innocently.

"We were just talking about our plans for the day."

Angelina raised an eyebrow, clearly not fully convinced.

"Plans for the day, huh? Well, whatever you're planning, make sure you don't cause any trouble."

Zeyden and Yue nodded, both trying to look as innocent as possible.

"Yes, Mama," they said in unison. Angelina went back to bed she was far to tired to worry about her devilish twins.

Zeyden and Yue waited until Angelina was back in bed before they looked at each other, both wearing sly grins.

"She totally bought it," Zeyden whispered.

Yue nodded, a mischievous sparkle in her eyes.

"Yeah, she did. Now we can start planning our mission without her interfering."

Zeyden and Yue went back to the table and resumed their discussion.

"So, where do we start looking for our brother?" Zeyden asked.

Yue tapped her chin, thinking.

"Well, we know he was born in Los Angeles, so that's a start. But there are millions of people in this city, so it won't be easy to find him."

Zeyden nodded, a determined look on his face.

"But we're not just anyone. We're the children of Angelina Frost, and we're not going to give up until we find our brother."

Yue smirked, a glint in her eyes.

"Exactly. And we have our own resources and skills to help us. We just have to be smart about it."

Zeyden and Yue spent the rest of the morning brainstorming and making a plan. They decided to start by checking missing persons reports and seeing if anyone matching their brother's description had been reported. But nothing happened.

2:00 pm

Angelina opened her eyes she felt so refreshed she yawned and looked out the window. Angelina stood up and opened the curtains. Angelina let out a small sigh as she thought about the event she had to attend. She didn't particularly enjoy socializing, but she knew it was something she had to do.

She walked over to the closet and began to rummage through her clothes, searching for something appropriate to wear.

Angelina dressed herself in the outfit, feeling comfortable and casual. She looked at herself in the mirror and nodded in approval.

She walked over to the bathroom to brush her hair and freshen up. Once she was satisfied with her appearance, she walked out of the bedroom.

As Angelina walked out of the bedroom, she was greeted by the sight of Zeyden and Yue sitting on the couch, both of them looking up at her expectantly.

"We have something to ask you, Mama," Zeyden said, a sly smile on his face.

Angelina raised an eyebrow, sensing that they were up to something.

"What is it?" she asked, a hint of suspicion in her voice.

Yue spoke up, her expression innocent.

"Can we come with you to the event you're attending today?"

"I am trying out for a movie, so no you can't but I have something to tell you two," Angelina said as she grabbed her mini backpack and put it over her shoulder and grabbed the front door.

Both Zeyden and Yue's faces fell, clearly disappointed that they couldn't come with her.

"Aw, Mama, why can't we come with you?" Zeyden whined, pouting.

"It's going to be so boring here without you," Yue added, looking dejected.

"Ms. Brown will take you to the beach, and a water park anyway I have something important to tell you," Angelina said.

Zeyden and Yue's eyes widened with excitement at the mention of going to the beach and a water park.

"The beach and a water park? Yay!" they exclaimed in unison, their disappointment immediately forgotten.

Angelina chuckled at their reaction, amused by their short attention span.

"Yes, Ms. Brown will take you there, and you can have fun while I'm gone."

"You need to watch out for an outrageous beast next door," Angelina said as she put on her black white Jorden's shoes.

"Mama what do you mean by that is that person a dummy?" Yue asked as she logged onto her game.

"Yeah mama we don't play with dummies," Zeyden said.

"Mmm no something is wrong with his brain and heart though, remember he has two moles underneath his left eye," Angelina said with a sweet smile.

"We won't play with the outrageous beast mama," the twins said as they started to play a game on their iPad. Angelina opened the door her eyes widen when she saw Lennox Zhekova did he hear her? Lennox assistant Axel looked at Angelina this woman is so daring! The outrageous beast she was describing was his master!

"Mr. Zhekova I was not talking about..."

Lennox turned his head to look at Angelina, his expression neutral.

"You were talking about me?" he asked, a hint of amusement in his voice.

Axel's eyes widened in shock, he couldn't believe that Angelina had the audacity to call his master an "outrageous beast". He looked between Angelina and Lennox, wondering how his boss would react.

Lennox raised an eyebrow, clearly not believing Angelina's excuse.

"You were playing with your kids, huh? It sounded like you were describing me to me."

Axel's eyes widened even more, he couldn't believe that Angelina was trying to gaslight his boss. He was about to say something, but Lennox held up his hand, silencing him.

Angelina shrugged, trying to play it cool.

"Oh, that's just a silly little game me and my kids play. We call it 'Guess the Outrageous Beast.'"

Axel's jaw dropped, he couldn't believe that Angelina was actually going through with this ridiculous lie. He looked at Lennox, waiting for him to explode.

Lennox chuckled, clearly not buying Angelina's explanation.

"Is that so? And what are the rules of this game?"

Axel's eyes widened even further, he couldn't believe that his boss was humoring Angelina's ridiculous lie. He looked at her, waiting for her to dig herself deeper into this hole.

Angelina thought for a moment, trying to come up with some rules on the spot.

"Well, um, the rules are that we describe someone and the other person has to guess who we're talking about."

Lennox nodded, still not entirely convinced.

"And how do you determine if someone is an 'outrageous beast'?"
