Right.

"So you finally back home, heard your boyfriend is on a business trip," Mrs White said. She had found Alex in the kitchen with her mother.

"Yes, he will be back in two weeks" she answered.

"Hmmm, okay. Rosa serve dinner and had a long day" she said then left. Alex's mother nodded turning to the maids to get ready

Alex helped her mother and after they had their dinner.

"So tell me how it went during the weekend?" her mother asked.

"Nothing big took a stroll with his dog, had cake then dinner. We didn't do much" she said.

"Do you share the same bedroom with him?"

Alex nodded

"So he treats well?" she asked

Alex smiled, "Mom he does, that's the fifth time your asking "

Her mother smiled, "Then why hasn't he done anything if you share the same bed"

Alex looked up, "Done anything, what do you mean mother?"

Her mother snickered with the maids. Alex gazed at them then instantly turned red when she understood what her mother meant.

"Mother!" she yelled

"What?.. I need to know that my daughter is now sexually active" she said, "It been taking too long I was getting worried".

"Mom please stop," Alex said.

The maid laughed hearing her protest. She picked up her glass and drank some juice.

"So have you both done it yet? Or you let this weekend go by too"

Alex choked on her drink getting up.

"Mom, am done. Goodnight" coughing Alex rushed out of the kitchen.

"You don't need to answer that, the reaction was enough for me" Alex heard her mother say, "Am happy for you sweety" she yelled again.

Alex ran up to her room.

...

Mrs White turned her husband in bed.

"Have you talked to your daughter yet, she needs to come back home soon?" she said.

"Give her space, you keep controlling her. It's the reason she turned out that way" he answered.

"What? as always it's my fault, what have you done as her father? Nothing. Instead of raising your daughter your raising putting all your efforts into the brat" she yelled.

He sighed gazing at her, "We know Alex is my daughter too ".

"Adoptive... Don't forget that part" his wife added.

"But we both know she had every right to be raised in this house or have a place in the company. She has more rights than us" he let out.

"What right exactly, she doesn't own anything in the company or home. She and her maid of a mother don't own anything" Mrs White said.

Her husband scoffed, "Your greed is limitless, but know this as long as I am alive she and her mother will have a place in our family"

His wife smirked and turned away laying down.

"A good night to you, my dear husband" she muttered closing her eyes.
