Hate Affairs

The next day

Lucian's POV:

"Are you okay?" Tobias asked me while I was going over some paper work in my office.

"Why wouldn't I be?" I asked him not even looking up.

"Listen man, don't beat yourself up about it, I'm here if you need anything" he said.

"I need to work and for you to get gone" I said and looked up at him. He lifted his arms up defensive and walked out of the room.

I downed a glass of whiskey and got up from my chair and went to go downstairs.

It felt weird walking past the library knowing it was empty. Actually the library was always empty, the only person who loved spending time there was my mom, she mostly was the one who collected all the books that were there and no one else really used to go there after she died. And then Adria came around, she had the same passion for books like my mom and she made that room feel alive again.

"Nice to see you again Felix!" I heard some of my man say in the hallway.

I turned the corner and walked to the entrance of the house.

"Son" my dad said.

"Dad" I replied and he smiled and then looked back at the other men there.

"We have some things to discuss" he then said to me.

"I'm sure we do" I replied. He always leaves and then comes back to discuss some things and when they don't go the way he wanted them to he leaves again.

"Let's go" he said and we walked back to my office.

"So what is it this time?" I asked taking a seat in my chair.

"I think Layla is still alive" he said and took me by surprise.

Layla is my younger sister. She disappeared almost 7 years ago, and we looked for her for years up until my mother died, that moment broke our family and we stopped looking. My dad went away to live on his private island and I stayed here.

"What?" I asked him and now was interested in what he's find out.

"I was going through international messages when I got bored on the island and one of them said that the daughter of Felix Ricci is still alive" he said and poured himself a glass of whiskey.

"Where is she?" I asked.

"Oh I don't know, but that's what we need to find out" he said and downed his glass of whiskey.

Adria's POV:

"When the hell did you get back?" Jolie busted into my room waking me up.

"Last night" I murmured under the sheets.

"And you didn't wake me?" She said and pulled the covers off of me.

"It was late Jolie" I said and sit up and looked at the time. 10am.

"Gosh I missed you, don't ever leave like that again" she said and hugged me.
