chapter 17

Laura has been living with this ruthless mafia for months, she wonders if he has a family somewhere. People have heard of the tale of the great Alexander Quinn but no one has ever heard about his family, is he alone in this world and that's why he is who he is?Laura sat all by herself on the swing in the beautiful garden thinking about Alex, trying to find out why he is who he is today.She looked defeated, no matter what she comes up with, nothing point out why he is who he is today.Uhu puffs air out of her mouth, her shoulders dropping in defeat. This is her new life and she has to live it, there's no stepping out of it, there's no way out she is trapped.There is no reason to punish herself by trying to annoy him, it is time she takes Shelly's advice and does as he says so she will live peacefully in this beautiful prison.Lost in her thoughts, she didn't see the little girl who stood in front of her looking at her with curiosity. Penelope came running, she huffed for air when she saw the girl standing in front of Laura.Don't do that again Kimberly, I have been looking for you, I thought you left the compound like last time.The little chatter next to her brought her back to the real world, she was surprised to see a little girl of eight years old staring at her with big and beautiful brown eyes like hers."Who is she?" They asked Penny at the same time, before Penny could give a reply, the little girl ran off screaming " Daddy" she hugged her father tightly, giggling with her little voice.Alex hugged his daughter with a smile on his face, a genuine smile that shocked Laura. He had such a beautiful smile but why does he frown all the time? When he smiles it means something bad is going to happen but the smile on his face looks genuine."I missed you, princess, how was the holiday at your aunty's place? Did shetreat you right?" Alex asked.Laura's already wide eyes grew even wider, he has a daughter? How can he have a daughter? A ruthless human being how can God bless a ruthless human being such as him a beautiful daughter?After the heartwarming moment between the father and daughter duo, Kimberly asked her previous question "who is she, dad?" Alex looked at both of them not knowing what to say.He can't possibly tell his eighth years olddaughter that the lady staring at both ofthem in shock is his sex slave."Uhhh she is just someone daddy knows, she is not important my darling" he carried her up together they entered the house leaving a flabbergasted Laura behind."Let's go in Laura and close and close your mouth before I fly gets in" Penelope said stiffly, she is trying so hard to suppress her laughter.Laura followed them behind, giving a safe distance between her and them. She watched as Kimberly chatted none stop, she looked happy and it seems they have a great relationship."Uncle Dexter" Kimberly yelled, she ran to Dexter who stood by the kitchen door with an apple in his hand."Princess, when did you come back? Oh, I missed you." He hugged the little girl who giggled."I missed you too, I don't want to ever leave this place again. Aunty's house was good but it was boring, there was no one to play with or talk to" she complained pouting her little mouth."And you wouldn't, I don't mind fighting your dad next time," he said looking at who rolled his eyes."There's no need for that, I don't think I'll be going to aunty's place, I have someone else who will take care of me. Dad's new girlfriend, I hope this one stays and not run away like my mother and the other girls who have come to this house." Laura choked on her spit when she heard her. She can never love someone like Alex and talk more aboutdating him. "Yeah" Dexter chuckled....
