LEAH

1 week has passed and there is chaos everywhere, and why wouldn't there be ? The only son and only heir of the most powerful mafia is returning after 11 years. I have not even seen May since morning and some maids have also been teaching me some ridiculous things on how to take care of the heir of this house but i didn't even pay any heed to them.The only thing i wanted right now was May. The son of satan had a big fatty smile on his face that looked so disgusting on him.

Only 1 hour was left and many bodyguards were standing outside the mansion and all the maids were rushing everywhere while i was standing looking like a fool by all the chaos. Time passed and now there was silence, waiting for the heir to come from the big gate at any moment. But that moment never came. Everyone stood at their places seeking for the signs of him coming but no one came. But at last the gate swung open and there stood the John, Christina and a boy around my age but not at all resembling John. We all stood dumbfounded by the appearance of the boy who no one knew or perhaps nobody knew.

Christina walked in front with the boy and gestured to John to come in front and say something. John sighed and stepped in front before saying "This little boy here is my and Christina's child of whom i gave him away for adoption because i didn't want another boy." and with this he went away probably being ashamed of his deeds. All of us stood there in shock. He had a son and no one knew about it ? For the first time i ever saw Christina with tears in her eye and then she went away while holding her son's hand. I awkwardly stood there trying to find May and then finally saw her.

She stood there zoning out trying to recall the past 10 minutes. She told me before that she had great terms with the heir when he was here. She did miss him and was really looking forward to meeting him and all her expectations crashed because of that bastard. But the real question was if the heir is not right here then where is he and was he even going to come or was this all planned for that unexpected boy.

The arrangements were all put down and all had worn out faces but the only thing I didn't have was me. Like why would i even be sad for a person i never knew. Anyway i was happy because the Thomsons said that we were allowed to eat all the rich food they all were going through a big shock and all the guests all left a while ago so i had the best day today. The only thing i didn't like was May's sad face , and that was the last thing i would ever want. I wanted her happy until I died, until I had borne my last breath away because seeing her sad always brought tears to me. I went towards her and hugged her tightly. She loved me very much and now i think she loved him also because the only person i ever saw shedding tears was for me and now i felt her tears on my shoulder. We stood there for a long time until i felt a bit relaxed.

We both sat down on the floor and she said "Archie, he was their son who i loved the most. After he was born, i was the first to see him and hold him. The first thing he saw after coming to this world was me. His parents were monsters from the beginning, never cared for him, although they used to spend their money on him as much as it was required but never gave him parental love. But i was there with him throughout the time he was here. He used to stay with me in my bedroom whenever he used to be scared of thunderstorms. He loved me as much as i loved him. i was very happy from his return but the change of plans really hurt me Madison. I hope he can come soon." I just sat there listening to her story about her love for this Archie guy. Maybe he wouldn't be that bad because he has been raised by May and not by these monsters. I sat with her the whole night listening to her stories about Archie's childhood story.
