"And also cut your margin?" Albert asked.
"His stylist was there, so I took the opportunity to give myself a little oomph."
"And what did you do at work? Linky."
"It wasn't a big deal. I made some appointments and organized his lunches. Sent the papers. Nothing else."
Rita hugs Lincoln just as tightly as the last few times. "Little businessman."
"Mom. I'm just an assistant."
"It starts like this. Maybe one day you'll be president of a company."
"I hope so." Lincoln noticed that none of his sisters had said anything yet. "Girls, why are you so quiet? This is not normal for you."
In fact, the most shocked were Leni, Luna, Luan, Lynn, and Lucy. Especially because of how good Lincoln looks in that suit.
"Hey Leni. What do you think of my suit? Do you like it?"
Leni ran to the upstairs room, leaving everyone confused.
This was already worrying Lincoln. Leni never misses an opportunity to express her opinion on fashion. The boy was still wondering what he did that she didn't want to talk to him? Then he remembered what they did in her room that day. Perhaps by rejecting her affection, he gave her a bad impression.
Meanwhile, in what would soon become Lincoln's room, Leni was lying on the bed, hugging a pillow as she cried. "Linky. You look so handsome. I love... I love you with all my heart. But I can't get close to you. I don't want you to get hurt again because of me." Leni sees Lincoln's jacket on the floor; the girl takes it and hugs it. "But I want you so much."
-Back downstairs-
The aforementioned sisters were still speechless until Lincoln broke the silence.
"Girls. Hello?"
Luna and Lynn were sweating as they had to hold back the urge to throw themselves at their brother. Lucy felt her heart beating so fast that she was afraid Lincoln would hear her. Luan just said he looked good and then went out into the backyard to see pictures of her and Penny and try to contact him again.
-Back downstairs-
Lana jumps up and hits Lincoln on the shoulder. "You look just like a businessman, bro."
"Hehe, thanks, Lana. Oh, I almost forgot." Lincoln pulls an envelope of money from his pocket. "This is the other half of my payment to rebuild the house."
Rita counts the money. "It's...fifteen thousand dollars."
In a short time, they will be able to rebuild the house.
Rita and Lynn Sr. hug their son and then the rest of the family. Lincoln felt like the group hug was suffocating him, and there were also some mischievous hands that Lincoln recognized.
"And you'll share the rest of your money with your pretty little sister, right, Lincoln?" Lana pushes Lola again.
"Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha. Of course, why not? By the way, When I arrived, I could hear someone moving in here across the street. Do you know who the new neighbors are?"
"Not yet. They've been unpacking since this morning, but we haven't seen them."
"So, maybe we should cross the street and introduce ourselves." Before Lincoln can finish speaking, someone knocks on the door. Lincoln opened the door, and even though he couldn't see, he knew something bad was going to happen.
In front of him were twin girls who were the same age as Lincoln, and the strangest thing was that they were both albino.
One of them wore a black leather jacket and an orange dress with shoes of the same color, in addition to sunglasses like Leni's.
The other sister was wearing a sleeveless shirt like the one Lori used to wear. In addition to a plaid skirt and shoes the same color as her shirt, like her sister, she was wearing sunglasses.
The two girls looked at the albino in silence for a long time, until the orange girl spoke.
"I knew it; I knew it was you. We saw you from the window of our new house, and I could never confuse you."
Lincoln recognized that voice. "L-Linka?"
"love!" The twins screamed at the same time and threw themselves at Lincoln, causing him to fall to the ground.
"My little wolf, I missed you so much." Linka kisses Lincoln on the lips.
"Listen. Don't take advantage of it. I want it too." Liberty grabs Lincoln's cheeks and kisses him.
The Loud family was bewildered by the scene, and the most affected were the four sisters in love, whose jaws almost dropped to the ground when they saw how these two unknown people kissed their brother.
Lynn was the first to come out of shock to confront these girls. "Listen! Who do you think you are, kissing my brother like this?"
Linka felt intimidated by how imposing Lynn was, but on the other hand, her more assertive twin stood in front of the athlete with a serious face.
"I am Liberty Bostel, and this is my sister Linka, and we are kissing our boyfriend."
This word made Lynn feel jealous. "Who do you think you are to declare yourself his girlfriend?"
"You have a problem with that?"
"I got it. He's my brother, and you can't just come out of nowhere and attack him, you perverts." Inside, she told herself that she had no right to talk like that because she had done the same thing too. But Lincoln was hers alone. And maybe Luna and her friends if they agreed, but this was her first time, and she wanted to make sure everyone knew that she had priority over her brother.
"Who are you calling a pervert? I dare you to repeat it."
"Pervert!!?"
"You asked for it, Tombhog."
Both girls were going to start fighting when Linka and Luan stopped them.
"Let go of me, Luan. I'm going to rip the gray-haired woman's head off."
"Linka, let me go. I'll turn her into pate."
Suddenly, the albino receives a cane, but it is not Lincoln's cane. It was a wooden one carried by an old woman. The sore albino clutched her head as she turned to see who had hit her. Her face turned pale when she saw the old woman.
