Alexa nodded and left the dining table, Alex was fuming in anger and he said angrily to Alice, “why did you allow her to go away from us”
Alice replied calmly, “Alex, she needs time whatever happened in last few days, it’s better if she can get out of this place for few days”
“Alex she had through a lot recently, we should try to understand her and give her some space, she is not kid anymore”
Alex calmed down a little and felt like what Alice is saying is correct, so he held Alice and walked to Alexa’s room.
They entered the room after knocking; they saw a maid packing her stuff. He sat on the sofa and waved Alexa to sit next to him and Alexa did as her Dad said.
Alex said, “I am sorry sweetheart for just now, but now I think I am fine with your decision”
Alexa smiled and said, “Thank you Dad” and she hesitated to continue, Alice said, “come on Alexa, how long will you hide it from your Dad”
Alex frowned and said, patting Alexa’s head, “Tell me Sweety what’s the matter?”
Alexa said in hesitation, “Dad I want to tell you something”
Alex nodded and Alexa told him what she was hiding from him.
At first, he was angry but later he was proud of his daughter.
On the other hand, James’s condition was not good at all, he was missing Alexa like hell, her cooking, her smile, everything.
He was imagining Alexa everywhere, he tried to control his feelings but nothing helped, he started boozing a lot just to forget Alexa.
It’s been a few days and he feels like the whole world has become empty.
Today his assistant called him and informed him that he had to attend a very important meeting in a café.
He didn’t want to go but he somehow agreed to go for that meeting, he reached the café and had his meeting, after the meeting was complete and his clients left.
He was about to stand and leave the café but all of sudden he heard a girl mentioning Alexa’s name and his legs froze.
Unintentionally he again sat on his chair and started listening to the girl’s one of the girl said, “You know Alexa is flying to London tomorrow”
Listening to this James felt pain in his heart but he scoffed thinking that she is just trying to get a free life by staying away from family.
Another girl continued, “It’s good for her, after what happened with her, I really pity her, she is such a good person but God cursed her with a cheater husband”
The first girl again said, “Seriously, how can a man cheat on a girl like Alexa, you know I was with her in London”
“And believe me she is really amazing person, she was running a business of her own”
Another girl scoffed and said, “What’s big deal in that, she is daughter of the richest man in the world, she can have whatever she wants”
James also thought the same thing and smiled sarcastically.
The first girl again replied, “Yes, you are right but that’s where Alexa is different, no one will believe that the daughter of the richest man in the world worked part time and saved money”
“And with that money at first she started a food truck and she herself was the cook, her food was so tasty that even the VIPs use to line up in front of her food truck and later on she expanded it in a small hotel”
“You won’t believe, booking of her hotel are hard to get, people wait for three months to just get a table in Alexa’s hotel”
“She never used her Dad’s name, she is really awesome, and I was lucky to be her friend so I got the chance to eat food of her hands easily”
After hearing all these, all the girls were praising Alexa, all of a sudden one girl said to the first girl, “You just said that her husband cheated on her?”
The first girl nodded and said, “Yes, he had affair and his lover was pregnant with his child”
At this moment James felt like he was struck by lightning, he never touched any other girl apart from Alexa, how can he make anyone pregnant.
All of sudden a memory flashed in his mind when Alexa gave him a paper and said with teary eyes to explain it but he was so mad at that time that he didn’t even look at the paper and kept it inside his court pocket.
He felt like the earth moved away from beneath his feet, was he wrong all the time, was his Dad right that he didn’t cherish what he had, he didn’t have energy left to hear anything more, he ran towards his car and drove as fast as he could to his house.
He reached home in fifteen minutes and ran inside and shouted to his butler, “Where is my grey suit?”
Butler replied bowing his head, “Master, you have a lot of grey shade suit which one you are talking about”
James felt irritated and said, “The one which had white pocket inside” he was already running out of patience.
Butler replied, “Yes Master, that is sent to dry clean with your other clothes”
James felt like he missed the last string which caused him to lose his Alexa, he asked in an irritated tone but still with some hopes, “Was there any document in that?”
Butler was in thoughts sometime and after few minutes he replied, “Yes Master, there was a document in court pocket, I have kept it in a drawer of your study room”
As soon as James heard it he ran towards his study room, and opened all the drawers and finally, he found the document and his eyes popped out when he saw the pregnancy report.
Which says that Olivia was one month pregnant and the father of the child was James, he was unable to believe his eyes.
He crumpled the paper in anger, he pulled out his phone from his pocket and called his secretary and asked him to investigate the people who had the deep discussion before meeting in front of him about the rich girl’s lifestyle.
