"Lexi, follow me" Aidan said
I got off the couch and followed him into his office. I haven't been here since the day I first came.
He instructed me to sit in one of the chairs in front of the desk.
"Lexi, are you sure you want to know" Aidan asked
"Yes" I said
I was nervous, what else is there to know.
"Lexi, David is not your biological father" Aidan said
"What" I shouted
"No no that can't be true" I said in disbelief.
That can't be true, David was always my father
"Lexi what color are your mother and David's eyes" Ryan asked
"Brown" I said
They were brown and mine were blue.
"No, how do I know you aren't lying" I said
Aidan pulled something out of his drawer.
It was a family portrait. It was 5 young boys, my mother holding a baby and a guy I didn't know.
"You see, that's baby you before your mother took you." Andrew pointed out
"Why would my mother take me away from you" I asked
I still didn't know if he was saying was true. My mother would never separate me from family. She would always tell me family is important
"Because your real father didn't want people to know that he has a daughter. If people found out they could use you against us. They would do anything to hurt us. They would use you to weaken us. Our mother didn't want want you involved in the mafia or get hurt. We were gonna protect you and you were suppose to live with us but your mother decided to take you one night and move away. Our father didn't know where you went. We searched constantly for you, but it wasn't until we saw the news that your mother and David died. We didn't know who David was until we found out that's who your mother got with in New York. She didn't want anything to do with mafia so she moved, got remarried and told you that David was your father" Aidan said
I didn't know what to say, she was protecting me yet keeping me away from my family.
"What happened to my real father" I asked
I haven't seen him at all, they never mentioned or saw any pictures.
"He's in Italy, we didn't want to bring him in your life until you adjusted but you got hurt, then went to New York then Hawaii, then went to rehab, then get kidnapped. We never got the right chance to tell you. Since you found out about the mafia, we decided to tell you now" Ace said
"Oh" I replied
I didn't know what else to say, my own father was in Italy this whole time. I've been lied to my whole life
"Lexi say something" Ryan said
"I-I I've been lied to my whole life, and I just found out my real dad lives in Italy" I said
"I'm sorry Lexi, we wanted to tell you earlier but we couldn't" Jaden said
Anger starting fueling in me. My own mother lied to me about my family.
"My own fucking mother LIED TO ME" I shouted in range.
I couldn't stay in this room
I quickly went out of the office and ran towards the kitchen
