"What the hell is his problem? Why can't he leave alone?" I shouted.
Jayden was looking at with a worried face. I was starting to get hysterical, rage was consuming already and I couldn't think straight.
My good for nothing father is on the front page and will be having a press conference three days from now. The headline says "THE REAL STORY BEHIND THE LOVE BETWEEN A ROYAL PRINCESS AND A MAFIA KING".
I know he would also talk about , Jayden and the royal family. I didn't feel scared, I am mad at him.
"Relax, love. Sit down." Jayden was surprisingly calm.
.
"Relax? How can I do that? All I want is to et my father. I didn't realize he's a devil in disguise! This is so frustrating. Ever since I t him, I was always living in fear. I was always anxious that he would take Caden away from and that he might do sothing bad to you."
Jayden sighed, stood up and pulled gently into his arms.
"Love, would you like to talk to him again?" He suddenly asked.
I was surprised by his words. I was actually thinking about it but I didn't ask Jayden thinking that he would not agree with .
"Are you sure about it?" I asked, looking at him with a confused face.
"Yes. I thought about it and talked to dad. Maybe it's also ti for him and your dad to et." He answered.
I was even more surprised when he said that. I looked at his dad who was also staring at . I couldn't see any hatred from his eyes. All I can see is worry. He was worried about .
"Dad?" I called.
He smiled at and nodded.
"It's okay. I don't feel any hatred towards him anymore. He was a friend of mine. Did you know that?" He said.
I didn't say a word. He pointed at the couch, telling us to sit down and listen so we did. Jayden held my hand while we looked at his father, waiting for his side of the story.
"I studied dicine in Flousia. That's where I t Matthew and Lucia. I was a foreigner in your country and didn't know anyone. The first ti I t them was during my first day on campus. The university is so huge and I got lost. Lucia saw lurking around and approached ." Dr.Richards started.
***FLASHBACK TWENTY FIVE YEARS AGO***
JAYDEN'S FATHER POV
"Hi! Are you lost?" A girl with long blonde wavy hair and a pair of silver eyes asked .
I was srized with her eyes that glittered from the sun as it shone on her face. She was like an angel who ca down from heaven.
"Are you mute?" I heard a guy's voice and saw him standing beside the girl.
He has jet black hair and a pair of ocean blue eyes. He was the sa height as but his aura was powerful like a king. He was looking at with his cold gaze.
"Hello? Are you listening? Are you new here?" The girl asked, giving a sweet smile.
I felt like my heart skipped a beat but tried to compose myself when I saw her boyfriend frown.
"Y-Yes, I'm new here. I ca from the neighboring country. I was looking for this building." I said while showing her my class schedule.
She looked at it and smiled.
"We're in the sa class. Chemistry. We're headed there, would you like to co with us?" She asked.
I was hesitant to accept her offer but I was going to be late if I declined. I glanced at the guy beside her. He wasn't looking in my direction but I could still see his frowned face.
"Are you sure it's okay?" I asked, looking at the guy who noticed my gaze.
"It's fine. Just co with us or we're going to be late because of you." He answered.
The girl giggled and walked ahead of us.
When the guy started following her, I walked beside him. He was cold, distant and didn't talk much. The girl, however, keeps on talking as if she was touring around the campus.
"She's weird, right? She talks too much even though you just t her." The guy beside suddenly said while we walked behind the girl.
I felt like he wasn't really cold. I could feel that he was hiding sothing painful inside and that his coldness helped him forget that pain.
"I'm Christopher. You can call Chris. What's your na?" I asked.
"Matthew." He simply answered.
I wasn't really expecting that he would give his na but I was happy that he did.
"And your girlfriend?"
He suddenly laughed hard when I asked him. I was shocked and confused while looking at his laughing face.
"Hey Lucia! Co here! This guy thought you're my girlfriend!" He shouted.
"What?" The girl exclaid in disgust.
She walked towards us and crossed her arms on her chest when she got closer to us.
"Him? My boyfriend? He's my best friend and we could never be a couple." She answered, almost yelling at .
I was happy when they confird that they were not a couple but I felt like Matthew was in love with her.
As the days passed, I started to get to know more about my two new friends. Her na is Lucia Castello. The youngest daughter of the Castello Clan. He's na is Matthew Forelli, the eldest child and the successor of the Forelli Clan.
I eventually found out that they were both from a mafia clan. The Forelli were the most powerful and the most influential clan in Flousia, not the royal family. There were a lot of rumors about Matthew's father, one is that he was a murderer. We really don't talk about our families, especially Matthew's. It's not that I'm not interested but I was waiting for him to tell .
"Chris, if I beco like my father, would you still be my friend?" He asked once.
I was surprised and was not able to answer him quickly. I didn't have a chance to tell him after that because so guys from their clan arrived and took him.
I wanted to ask where they would take him but Matthew shook his head to stop . But looking back, I regret that I didn't do sothing.
