The Ruthless One

Episode 11

I’ve been at my gym blow of some steam for the past couple of hours and I’m sweating like crazy so I decided to take a stop to get a drink of water.

“Oliver we have a bit of a problem.” Jack said states walking into the gym with worry filling his face.

“Someone die?” I questioned.

 “No.” He answered.

“Some petty gang trying to start a war with us?” I asked.

“No.” He said.

“Did someone betray us?” I asked.

“No.” He said again.

“Jack I could go on forever with a list of things that could cause us some problem.” I said getting a towel to dry my self of.

“Alright, ok, so, ummm, there is a kid upstairs.” Jack said nervously.

“I don’t see the big deal, send it back to its parents pretty simple.” I answered and made my way to the weights.

“That’s the thing you are apparently the kids father.” Jack said running his hand through his hair like he always does when he’s stressed.

“Impossible I’ve always worn protection.” I told him trying to keep my calm in check.

“Yeah but what if there was a complication.” He asked.

“I was a DNA test done right now as well as someone looking for the kids mother, who even is the kids mother.” I asked getting annoyed a bit more by the second.

“Oliver actually that’s where it gets complicated, the kids mother is Adriana, and she had cancer she was in her last days of maybe week pushing it, the kid had it all in a letter, I checked it all up Oliver and it’s all true, there’s doctors appointments, money transfers to the hospital for the treatment and lots of doctors reports all saying on how she wasn’t improving and how concerning it was.” Jack said his voice in full desperation.

“Take me to the kid.” I said blankly.

While Jack was walking me to wherever this kid was his phone went off when he picked it up he could near jump of how happy is was.

“Chloe’s giving birth, she went into labour.” He said happiness filling his voice and everything around him.

“Alright go off, send her my best wishes.” I said and watched him leave then started walking to the living room where he said the kid was.

The whole way there I thought about what I would say to the kid, how old even is the kid, Jack was suppose to be here to help me. I walked into the room I see a little girl maybe 3 yeas old, blond hair, big brown eyes, she surely has Adrianas hair and her eyes could pass as my own I’m really questioning if she is my daughter or not, I need to get that DNA test done as soon as possible.

“Hey kid.” I said awkwardly.

Annnnnnd she ignores me, fun what do I do now.

I decided to call the one person that came to mind.

“You good with kids?” I asked Mila and she walked in, she just nodded.

“Good cause I need help.” I said.

“What type of question do I ask her?” She asked me.

“Anything from her name to her age and so on.” I answered.

“Hey little one what’s your name?” Mila asked kneeling down next to the child.

“Ella.” She answered with a quiet sweet voice.

“How old are you Ella?” Mila asked her and she put up three fingers.

“Wow your a big girl.” She said while smiling which cause Ella to smile.

“Ella are you hungry?” Mila asked, which she nodded to.

“Boss is it ok if I take her to the kitchen to get her something to eat.” Mila asked turning around to face me.

“Yes of course lets go.” I answered and opened the door and Mila and Ella walked through hand in hand.

As they walked in front of me to the kitchen I played attention to Mila and how good she was dealing with Ella she is really good with kids.

“Can I give her ice cream boss.” Mila asked sitting Ella on a chair and making sure she was secure.

“Anything she wants.” I answered.

“Do you want ice cream.” Mila asked Ella in a gentle voice which earned a strong nod from Ella.
