CHAPTER 27

MAEVE ROGERS
It has been a week, something like that, and I'm pretty surprised, didn't they find me?.

Me and Milo got closer during that time, I really did miss him, even though he was pretty busy, he found a time for me.

Me and Mario get along more then we used to back in high school, and I met Xavier sister, she's more nicer than her brother, that's for sure, she does have some features of him, the grey eyes, her dimples, her skin tone is pretty similar to his, and she has the fallen rose tattoo as well.

I didn't really talk to her, didn't feel like it, I don't think we have a lot in common.

I was now sitting in the living room, with Angel on her playing mat, my dad watching us with a smile, "peek a boo!", she giggled loudly, clapping her hands, 'gain!", I chuckled, doing a peek a boo again, her little teeth showing.

"Hey, what are you doing", Milo walked down the stairs, his hands in his pocket, "peek a boo!", Angelina laughing again, answering Milo at the same time.

"Uhh, I need to talk to you", I looked up at him, a frown between my eyebrows, Angelina looking up at him as well, an innocent look in her eyes, smiling as he smiled at her, her cheeks getting red, "you see, even a two years old likes me", I rolled my eyes, standing up, "stay away from my other daughter".

My dad stood up, kissing my forehead and going to seat down next to Angel, "don't worry about it darling, I'm waiting right here", I nodded, following Milo towards his office.

"What's up?", I stood in front of the table as he sat down on his chair, sighing, cupping his jaw, "I suggest you seat, darling", I furrowed my eyebrows, confused, "please Maeve", I swallowed hard, sitting down in front of him.

He grabbed his pen, pressing on it multiple times, he still does that?, "I- fuck, I don't know how to say it", I stared at him in confusion, eventually came into realisation.

"Are they-", he slowly nodded, making me shut down, "don't worry, Evie, I'll make sure they won't find you", he stood up, crouching down next to me, "I promise", I blinked back my tears, nodding.

He cupped my cheek, brushing his thumb softly against my skin, wiping my tears, "I'll keep you safe", I sniffled, nodding, smiling, "how do you know they are in Spain".

"I get information about anyone who steps into my territory, darling", he stood up, making me stand up as well, "thank you for telling me".

"Of course, darling, you would've known one way of another, I decided to tell you the easy way", I didn't need to be told twice what was the other way.

I left the room, taking in a deep breath before walking downstairs to the living room,
"hey, baby, what's wrong", I shook my head, smiling softly, "nothing, I'm okay", he frowned, leaving Angel on the floor, walking towards me, cupping my cheeks, "you've been crying".

"I-I really am okay, dad, promise, he kissed my forehead, smiling softly at me, "Emilio told you the news?", I nodded, frowning, "wait, you knew?".

"He woke me up at 4am, you were finally sleeping peacefully, he didn't want to disturb you, and neither did I", I sniffled again, Angel walking towards us with wobbly legs, "b-but I deserved to know".

"Of course, you did, honey, but he knew you wouldn't be able to go back to sleep, and you were finally sleeping without waking up, like the past week".

"Where's Maya", he sighed at the change of the subject, picking up Angel, who was pulling on his pants, placing her on his hip, "she went on shopping with a maid she met here, Emilio let them", I hummed, slowly pulling back from him, sitting on the couch.
