365 The extent of wickedness - Part 20
Thursday continued ….
Meanwhile
After running from Hou Yi's office Yao Tan immediately headed for his apartment rather than returning to XF International's office.He just hoped his fears would not be realised when he arrived home.His little girl was already damaged with what had happened and he did not need her damaged more.
During the fifteen minute trip back , he and Amanda were exchanging text messages, and given she was stuck there until the end of the day he promised her a car would pick her up.
As he arrived back at the apartment building, he ran to take his private elevator up to his apartment, but as the door was shutting, a foot stuck in the door.As it reopened two identical boys walked in he got "Hi Dad" in stereo.
Despite loving all his children, today he did not want to have to deal with them until he spoke to Alecia."Boys, when you get up to the apartment, I need you to go to your rooms and remain there until I let you know you can leave."
"Dad, we have done nothing wrong, so why are you banishing us to our rooms."
"Do not argue with me today.Alecia spoke to the police..."As soon as he started to speak the words he started to shake, which his sons immediately picked up on.
"Dad, that is all you had to say.Has she finally said who hurt her?He will be dead..."
"Just leave it alone.I need to concentrate on her, not dealing with you."
"Fine dad."With that the elevator door opened and before Yao Tan could say anything his sons, were running up the stairs to the second level to their rooms.He walked into his home office and dropped his briefcase on the desk before heading down the corridor to Alecia's room.
As he reached the door, he could hear nothing from inside.That worried him.What as going on in that room.As he went to open the door, he determined that his daughter had locked it from the inside.That made him even more concerned.He hoped he did not walk in on something no parent should see their children doing.
As soon as that thought came across his mind, Yao Tan was so concerned about his daughter being sexually active.He would kill any man or boy that would do that with her.His boys he had no concerns as he knew that they respected girls and treated them well while they were in any relationship as if he heard anything different, he would ground them so much.
He returned to his office to locate the spare key to Alecia's room.He slowly and quietly opened Alecia's locked door when he returned, rather than being harsh doing so.Despite being worried about his daughter and somewhat concerned the scene was charming.He relocked the door behind him so the boys did not walk in.
As he turned around, oblivious to his entry, Alecia and James were still cuddled in each other's arms, exchanging a series of gentle but expressive kisses.The last thing he wanted was things to get too heated before him.
In a very loud voice, he said the one word "Alecia."
The two of them stopped kissing and turned around to see who was in the room.As soon as Alecia spotted her father, she turned her head and buried it in James chest.James, however refused to look away from Yao Tan looking him right in the eyes.
In those simple actions, Yao Tan realised that unless he handled this situation right, he would permanently chase his daughter away.He moved around and took a seat in one of the chairs in the seating area.
"Now you need to both look at me and tell me what in the world is going on here."Yao Tan, in hearing his words could not believe how calm he sounded when all he wanted to do was beat James to a pulp for touching his little girl like that.
James, reached down and lifted Alecia's head up, and she looked at him directly in the eyes she knew that she had to speak first as if James did, her father would kill him.
"Daddy, …"
"Do not use that tone on my young lady.You are trying to avoid addressing the question.Now the truth please."
"Daddy, I know that you are going to hate me, but I know I love James …"
