And as for the person who requested the gp story I'll consider doing it after I finish this story. And thank you for the idea... :D)
"Is she here? Is that why you are asking? Where is she? I want to see her" he looked around himself as if he would find Regina at some corner of the room.
"Shut up...just shut the hell up and answer my damn questions Robin" Emmett said as he felt his rage build up and ready to lash out at his brother.
"I-bro are you seriously going to believe some girl just like that and go against your own brother" Robin said as he fidgeted in the chair and tried to look straight into his brothers eyes to make Emmett believe him.
"We are not kids anymore Robin. Stop playing your damn games already and tell me what happened with the Mills family...NOW!" He yelled the last part as he was getting impatient which made Robin jump up a little on the chair. His brother has never yelled at him before no matter what happened. He knew that he was in trouble now for sure.
"I...sigh-bro you have to believe me I...uh what happened was not how I wished it had happened but I also had no other choice that was my last resort to get myself out of something big. And that's was the only way I could finally come back to you guys, my family" Robin spoke softly trying to calm down his brother's anger.
Emmett slammed his hands on the table and stood up now even more angry at what he was hearing as an excuse.
"So what? You thought using someone like the Mills family as a way to get out of your situation is that how you treat people for your own benefits and purposes. You know what just tell me this why did you marry her and leave her like that. Does Marian know that you slept with her and left her pregnant? Huh?" Emmett was so close to yelling again. Robin could see some of the employees looking towards the two brothers as Emmett's voice was reaching its way outside the room to them. People started murmuring between each other as they gave few glances here and there towards their boss's office.
"Bro I know you are upset and all but please keep your voice down and as for the questions no I didn't sleep with that girl and neither could she be pregnant with my child" Robins said it so sincerely that it made Emmett believe him for a second. But then he had seen the pictures and fake documents, all evidence pointing towards his brother being the guilty one here.
"ROBIN!" Finally Emmett had enough he went around the table and picked his brother up from his collars sharply and harshly shook him back and forth for few seconds as he kept his hold on him. Robin then quickly grabbed at his brother's wrists and released himself from the hold and stepped away from Emmett.
"Get the hell out of my office" Emmett spoke not looking at Robin anymore as he looked out the window in his office toward the city view. "Before you decide to disappear again do our parents a favor and prove your innocence and by that I mean take a damn paternity test" Robin didn't say anything, he couldn't believe that his own brother was blaming him for that girls misfortune. There was no way that child could be his yea he slept with her out of lust but his brother didn't need to know that but her being pregnant how could that be when he's infertile.
'I have to talk to Marian' was Robin's last thought as he walked out the office as quickly as he could before he got himself even more embraced by his own brother in front of all these employees.
"Regina dear? Are you done yet?" Cora asked as she knocked on the door to her daughter's hotel room. When she didn't heard no response, she opened the door to notice there was no one inside.
"Regina?" Cora called out again and again no response.
"ZELENA!" Yelled Cora as she looked at the empty room.
"YES! Mother?" Zelena came in, in a rush as her mother called for her presence. "What wrong?" Zelena said as she looked to where her mother was looking and noticed the problem.
"It looks like your sister has developed a habit of running away." Cora said out loud with a amused smile on her face.
"Thank you so much Ruben...Belle for getting me out of that hell hole...I am sorry I wasn't able to talk to you Belle for the past few days" Regina said as she felt even more sad and guilty now. Regina had actually received a call from unknown number she was sitting alone in her mother's hotel room. It turned out it was Ruben who had called her from a different number so Cora wouldn't know about their conversation. Ruben had called her to come with him and Belle to the Nolan's as Robin was here in New York already. Ruben felt Regina should confront him alone without her mother besides her.
Regina had decided to sneak out of the hotel room quietly and now all three were headed towards the Nolan's mention as Ruben had found out now Robin had made his presences known there as well.
"Are you ready to see him again?" Ruben asked without looking at Regina at all as he kept his eyes on the road. Belle and Regina were holding on to each other's hands, and Regina decided to just nod her head in yes. She was trying her best to be brace and finally just face him but she was also feeling agitated about seeing Robin again.
So many questions were going through her mind at the moment as well. She wonder if Robin would want to be a part of their child's life, or if he would demand to have the child taken away from her!? No she wouldn't let that happen at any cost, this child was hers and no one not even Robin or Cora was going to take away something this precious from her. She would fight to her last breathe to keep her child happy and protected from the monsters in her life.
Soon they had arrived at the mansion, the hotel wasn't that far away the mansion it seemed as if Cora had planned out everything to her advantage as far as keeping a close eye to the Nolans.
"Ready?" Ruben asked again as he looked to Belle and Regina both of them nodded their head in agreement.
"Alright let's go" they all got of the car at the same time and then Ruben gave the keys to the guard to park his car away. All three then walked up the stairs and entered the mansion. Belle and Regina were so consumed into whispering assuring words for what was to come that they failed to notice Ruben had stopped in front of them. They both ended up bumping into his back. Ruben quickly turned around and took a step back.
"Ladies...please keep your eyes on the front" he said as he put a safe distance between himself and the other two.
"Ruben? What are you doing here?"
"Uh-oh, don't turn around. Troubles coming our way" both Belle and Regina decided to ignore his warning and decided to turn around to see who had called out to Ruben.
"Emmett!"
"Mr. Swan!"
Both were now regretting turning around and were looking at Emmett with wide eyes. Everything seemed to fall apart for Regina at the exact moment. She hadn't seen Emmett since the day of the meeting with Cora present. Now she had to face both of the brothers at he same time. But for some reason she didn't want Emmett to be present while Robin was there as well. She didn't know why but it didn't sit well with her.
Rube still hadn't answered Emmett's question as Emmett had already approached them and was now standing in front of them. His eyes directly on Regina.
"What hell are you doing here?" Emmett said as he leaned on towards her, which made it look like as if Emmett was towering over Regina's form. Regina as well didn't back down from the ugly stare she received from her previous boss.
Before Ruben could answer for her Emmett stopped him.
"Enough Ruben...you don't have to keep trying to answer for her she can do that own her own" Emmett said as he still hadn't taken his eyes off her but knew Ruben would try to butt in for sure.
"I came here to see Robin" Regina responded as she also looked into his eyes not backing down from his angry looks.
"I see...well your wasting your time he's not here" Emmett informed as he started to walk past the three.
"And what are you doing after not coming to see your parents for the past week? Em?" Ruben spoke up as he hadn't expect Emmett to be here but still at the office.
"You know what Ruben, that's why I am here right now. And since we are all here for the same person lets just all go together inside and talk to my parents, hmm" he said as he looked at all three of them and then his eyes landed on Regina together. He walked the few steps back that he had taken and stood in front of her. He took her hands in his hands and held them mid high. "And since our families will be bonded now, lets try to get along well, alright" he spoke so softly that even Regina was surprised at his tone and she couldn't help but keep wanting to listen to Emmett talk to her like that again and again. Ruben and Belle were also surprised at the way Emmett tone totally changed towards Regina. Now again they were being the witness of their friends being so engrossed into each other's eyes that they had completely forgot that they were standing in their friend's presence.
"Alright then I guess lets get this done" Ruben spoke as he broke the trance both Emmett and Regina seemed to be in.
