CHAPTER 5

ADAN POV

I and Ava clean up Grace's wounds. I give her a month off assuring her her pay is still intact so is her bonus. The young lady couldn't stop blushing and Ava was sad that the red blush didn't want to go away. She thought it was a permanent bruise. It was cute to watch.

 “Daddy I'm hungry”, Ava says as she picks up another color to paint on the picture. We were in her playroom at the moment.

“Okay I'll tell chef Daisy to whip something up for you”.

“You. You cook”

“You want me to cook darling?”

“Yes,” Ava clarified.

  We head to the kitchen. I instructed the head chef and chef Daisy to chase everyone out of the kitchen. Only 3 servers should be inside with me and the head Chefs. I'll be cooking everyone's meals tonight.

   I prep on the ingredients needed for a spicy Chinese pasta. It is Ava's favorite and some chicken-salmon soup. But first I grilled two buns to make a cheesy burger for her while she waited for her meal.

 “I'm sorry daddy. I don't mean trouble tonight”.

I sigh rounding round to kiss her forehead, “stop apologizing baby. It's not your fault. It's okay”

“I just wanted to trade his fairy for some money”.

“Huh”

“He had this golden fairy hanging down his hand. He is a very beautiful daddy. I wanted it. I remember you gave me cash to buy anything. That is why I sneak into the food trolley so that I can get to him faster. I offered him all my cash but he laughed at me. I offered him my earrings too but he called me a thief”.

For Ava to give up that means the golden fairy is worth it. “Don't ever give up your earrings mi casa. Those are Nana's gift to you”.

“I'm sorry daddy. I just wanted it.

It's okay love”.

“Boss” Marcello is waiting for you out back”, Angelo says, giving Ava a fist bump.

“I'll be back darling. Here, have a burger and listen to Angie”.

I walk out back to see Marcello dispersing my men.

“Look man Marcello…. I didn't mean for things to escalate like this. I have taken care of Contallzo, especially Diego. I'm so sorry that Ava is caught in this mess”.

“It's good”, I reply

“You sure? Marcello looked at me skeptically.

“Yeah. She's calm now”.

“Thank God!”

“Yeah, so let's hug it out”.

“Umm…okay sure”.

I ball my fist hitting Marcello repeatedly as he closes in for a hug.

 “You don't fuck with my little girl and expect it to slide. Family or foe. Not even me”.

I punched his face repeatedly till I was happy with the red color on his face.

  “You are lucky he didn't lay his paws on my baby. I was already prepping the ingredients for you dick.

This should never happen again. There is a gold fairy dangling down the wrist of Diego. I don't care how you get it but I want it wrapped in a nice pink box by tomorrow morning.   I conclude, giving a hit to his dick.

“Yes Boss”

I open the three top buttons on my shirt as I walk back into the kitchen. Took three deep breaths to reel in my anger. Ava knows when I livid. I don't want to worry her any further. She's been through a lot today for her small age.

“Yay!! Daddy's back”

I smile at her cute little face.

“What's that on your hand daddy?”

I look at Marcello's blood stain on my hand.

“It's raspberry sauce” I say

  “I want to. Pretty please”

“Anything for you mi casa”.

Anything for you.
