Chapter 27: Twenty seven

I followed Lexus and Summer out as I walked behind both of them.

As we walked, I realized how good Lexus would look as a father holding her daughter. You know, the ideal type of dad and I know I wasn't wrong since he was catching everyone's attention as we walked through the lobby.

Such a different aura both of them had. It made me feel out of place. I was feeling small.

They both were important people. Important enough that Lexus got mad just because Summer came here alone. Just because she skipped school for one day.

When I was her age no one cared even if I slept on the side of the street.

I could feel the distance between us. I was nothing. Well I knew that. But today, it was especially hurting. The fact was bothering me more today.

I stopped at the main entrance as Lexus kept walking with Summer sitting on his right arm. He was strong enough to support all her weight on one arm.

They probably wouldn't notice me till they were far out near the road. Lexus had his driver called over by the side of the road with the engine running. I decided to go back to the penthouse.

I shouldn't be walking with people like them, especially when everyone else is ogling them and whispering how good they look.

I sighed and just before I turned I noticed someone standing behind the glass wall, just a few meters away from the main entrance and exit door. He was exceptionally tall and wore all black with a black beanie. I couldn't make out his face since he too was looking at Lexus and Summer.

On the way back I stopped in front of his office and remembered his talk on the phone with someone.

I looked around. There was no one there. I gulped and entered his office. His laptop was still open, so I walked around his desk and saw the email that he was reading.

An email on me, when I was seven to when I was fifteen. An overview of my nine year of life I spent pretty much in solitude.

The door suddenly opened and Lexus entered the office with a worried expression. After looking at me and that I had seen the mail he came and closed down the laptop screen.

"I-" He started

"You have every right to." I said as I looked at him, "I'm your slave afterall." A tear slipped down my cheek. It was nothing to be emotional over but reading the mail made me realize how different I was from him and I was something that can be thrown away anytime. A person of no value. It didn't matter to me before but I don't know why, because he found out how pathetic I am. It just hurt me so much.

"Rosalie." He moved towards me and stepped back, letting another tear fall down my cheek.

He didn't know what to do, even he was at a loss because I never cried before.

"It's a bit different." My voice shaked, "I didn't run away from her and I wasn't kidnapped by that old man either." I sniffed.

"Rosalie." He took another step towards me But I rejected him again.

"I didn't run away. She just left me there..."
