That day, when everyone had gone to school, I went to La Prira to et my foster dad. He beca so thin compared to the last ti we t. I drove on my own since it was just within Primrose and I really didn't need any security but I still asked Missy to co. She was on standby if anything happened.
"What is it? I don't have all day." I said when I sat down across from him.
"Margaret, I want to give you the company. Half of it was owned by your mother anyway so you have the right to have it. I don't have an heir so I would like you to have it." He started.
I didn't say a word. I really don't want to argue with him and it might just stress out. It would be bad for the baby.
"Do whatever you like. You said you have sothing to tell about my real father." I asked impatiently.
I'm not really mad at him anymore, but still tried to be cold to him. I just didn't know how to be a sweet and caring daughter in front of him. I could still feel that I love him as my father though, I was just disappointed with him.
"Here." He said while handing an envelope.
I frowned but looked at the files inside.
It was a photo of a man. I glanced at him and focused on the other files.
Matthew Forelli, current boss of the Forelli Clan. A Mafia Family who's currently the most powerful clan of the underground organization. There were also photos of him with different won including my mother. But the one that caught my attention was a photo of him with a woman who looks so familiar.
My eyes widened when I realized who it was. It was Jayden's mother. It was a cut out from a newspaper. It says on the caption, 'The Forelli Heir and the Castello's youngest daughter will soon tie the knot.'
I looked at my foster dad again, confused.
"Where did you get this? Is this true?" I asked. I was starting to panic and I could hear my own heart thumping loudly.
Then another file was inside the envelope that says confidential. My hands were trembling when I opened the file. I felt like a cold water has been thrown into my whole body when I read what was written on the last file.
"Answer ! Where did you get this? Are you trying to ruin my relationship with Jayden?" I asked, almost yelling.
"Why would I do that? I don't even know that your boyfriend was the son of Lucia." He said.
I was surprised to hear him called Jayden's mom by her first na.
"You know his mother? What else are you not telling !?" I asked again, almost hysterical.
"No. I knew his father, Dr.Richards. He was your friend's doctor, Alora. You already knew that he was her psychiatrist, right? Alora's father introduced him to us once. Your mom and I were having so issues ever since and I was starting to have so paranoia so I consulted him. During one of my visits, I t Lucia. Your mom ca with one ti and they beca friends. Later on, they found out they were engaged with the sa man once. I don't know how her and your father got reunited again. But I think she was also the reason they found out where the Richards' were hiding." Dad said.
I couldn't believe it. Not only my father was involved but also my mother. How? Why?
I left the cafe, devastated, my heart was shattered into pieces. My mind was in a ss, arguing with my heart if I would tell Jayden about our parents.
He just ca back from being unconscious and was still healing from his family's revelations. It would definitely hurt him if he finds out that my father might be a possible reason his mother was dead.
Inside the car, Missy was there, waiting. I know she already knew what I talked about with my father. She was one of my bodyguards hired by my father but when she found out about what he did to , she swore her loyalty to .
"What's your plan?" She asked.
I looked at her, then I started crying. My chest feels so tight and I felt like there's sothing blocking my throat. I couldn't speak. Missy let cry and waited for to calm down.
"What should I do?" I asked when I stopped crying.
"The only thing you need to do is to tell him. You're not really sure if your real father was involved. You should talk about it with him." Missy answered.
"What if he couldn't take it? My father and her mother were once engaged and from the last file I read it says that father talked to the Rossi's. Jayden's uncle said that the Rossi's were the ones who hired the assassins who killed his mother. It would ruin him. I don't want to see him collapse and be in bed like what happened in Flousia."
"So what's your plan?" Missy asked again.
"I would have to leave him. I-I would carry this secret with so he could live in peace." I said.
"Peggy, you understand you're only seventeen and pregnant, right? Are you sure you could do this alone? Jayden already proposed and your brother, Kyle will be coming back on your graduation. Then Luke and Alora's wedding will be two months after." Missy said.
She was right. I'm not sure if I could do this alone but thinking about Jayden's reaction when he found out, I couldn't take it. He would definitely hate . Or worse, he might fall into a coma again and would never wake up.
"Missy, please don't tell anyone about this. I will leave after Luke and Alora's wedding. I'll save so money to start over, I would never use the savings given by the Miller's." I said, sadly.
She took a deep breath and looked at .
"I will co with you. I would never forgive myself if sothing happened to you and your baby. I'm not saying that your decision is right, and I am hoping that you will change your mind before the day cos that we have to leave but I will help you. I am your servant, my loyalty is with you so your secret is safe with ." She said, which made cry even.
