The Billionaire's Dark Secret

Episode Eleven

My parents left to open the restaurant, so I cleaned the kitchen and made my way up to my room to get ready for Laurie and Jack to come over. I looked at the clock in my bedroom and see that I've got about forty-five minutes before they will arrive. I still can not believe all the things that happen last night, my mind doesn't seem to want to remember all the details, it's like I'm missing pieces of the night. I know I need to tell my parents but I still haven't processed what happened myself. I hear the front door open and realize that Laurie and Jack have made it. I hear Jack screaming auntie Lexie. I smile after hearing this. Jack is such a joy, how his excuse of a father would go through this life without having known how special of a kid he has. Hey Jack I'm up here. I hear his feet hit the ground running up the stairs to my bed room. All of a sudden the little whirlwind comes rushing in. I grab him and hug him so tight. I really missed the little devil. Hi aunt Lexie I missed you. I missed you to, I'm so glad you are feeling better. Yeah I have, he thought for a minute. When he couldn't remember what he was trying to say he screams momma. Laurie walks in smiling yes Jack. Mommy what is it that I have , she chuckles, upper respiratory infection. But you don't have it anymore baby. Guess what Jack, I ordered your favorite pizza from Tortilinies. Yeah, he screams and jumps up and down. Aunt Lexie can I go to my room and play. Yes you can honey and there is a surprise for you, he runs out of the room. You and your parents spoil him. I look at her and say how can you not. She laughs, and then her face turns serious, I say what is it. Lorenzo reached out. What the hell does he want. She shrugs, I don't know really. What do you think I should do. I look at her, Laurie are you still in love with him? Oh, no that ship sailed long ago. But he is Jack's father. Yeah a father that didn't want to acknowledge him in the first place, who didn't support you or him. What right does he have, he abandoned that sweet boy. He doesn't deserve Jack. You know Lexie I love you, but please remind me never to get on your bad side. You my darling could never ever get on my bad side, we both laugh. Ok, enough of that spill the beans, and don't you dare leave anything out. I smile at her not sure where to start.
