Chapter 512 - Who let you come here? (1)

29 May, Matthew's villa, City K

Lexi as she pulled into the villa's front driveway, noticed coming in behind her were two further vehicles, Matthew's military Jeep, and the nondescript sedan that Matthew insisted was used to transport Dominic to and from school.

Within seconds, Matthew had quickly moved to scoop her out from the back seat she was sitting on and was carrying her inside with Dominic, Warrant Officer Wang, and everybody else trailing after them. As they reached the Villa door, it was swung open and a wheelchair was waiting for her to sitting.

Dominic, race past the two of them before Lexi called out "Stop Dominic. You are in side , and you know that means to behave."

Dominic laughed, and dropped his schoolbag at his feet before turning and saying, "Mummy do you think I care."

Lexi started to tense, and felt Matthew place his hand on her shoulder. Before she could speak, Matthew said, "We have a visitor coming in a little while. Somebody I know you have not seen for some time, and I think based on what your Mummy told me about your conversation with her yesterday is somebody who might help you."

A sneer came across Dominic's face, before he said, "As if I have to care about what you, who abandoned Mummy and ,I has to say."

From behind Matthew, came a voice which said firmly and loudly "Dominic that is not how you speak to anyone."

As they turned, Lexi noticed Matthew had not tensed up but observed Warrant Officer Wang reaching for his sidearm before Matthew shook his head. Lexi said, "What in the world are you doing here?"

"Lexi is that any way to speak to an elder. You sound like Dominic just sounded a spoilt brat."

Dominic, finally realising who he was saying ran backwards and threw himself calling out "Uncle why and what are you doing here I've missed you."

Gathering Dominic in his arms, Warren hug him before saying "I have heard, that you are upset about some things. You know I was close to your Daddy, and figured you needed to speak to me. I am not speaking, to your grandparents so asking them to help me was a problem. I know your aunt Sally, so I asked her to help me arrange this."

"Why are you not speaking to …"

"Dominic, you know your grandmother and I always argue about things. We have just had another argument because she did not like what I had to say to her. And no, I will not tell you about it, because it is something a.d.u.l.ts talk about. Now, how about you take me outside, and we can talk."

"Yeah!" squealed Dominic.

"Dominic," Warren called out. "I do not think your bag belongs in the middle of the floor. Can you put it where you should, while I have a quick chat to your parents?"

"Unfair," same Dominic dropping his lip slightly. However, he moved over and picked up his bag, and started to head towards the stairs.

Quietly Warren said "Lexi, I know you were wondering why I am here. My sister, your former mother-in-law has her grand schemes about what should happen. One thing I will not take is hurting Dominic and because of those schemes your sister-in-law, was able to arrange a meeting between your husband and myself. Despite him not trusting me, he did listen to what I have to say because it involved Dominic. Before you ask, I have heard a lot over the last couple of weeks about Dominic not coping with things and figured that there was at least a possibility that I could help him in some way by talking to him. What it the worst case scenario, it achieves nothing, but the best case scenario is that it helps him in some way so that he stops blaming all a.d.u.l.ts, even my stupid sister for what has happened."

"Hey what in the world did she threaten to do?" came Lexi's resigned response.

"The usual, she wants the world to bend too her plans, but I was not going to give in to her. Just know I have done what I can to stop her." After a couple of seconds pause Warren Gong added "Lexi, even your husband agreed to this, saying that neither of you have anything to lose in me talking to Dominic."

"Fine," side Lexi before turning to Matthew and saying, "This better not backfire or you're to blame."

"Lexi, I will take that blame if necessary but at least give him a chance. He knows I do not trust him and why, but I am willing to take that chance for Dominic."

Before anyone could respond, Dominic came tearing back down the stairs calling out "Come an Uncle Warren, let us go outside. "

Matthew, moved over and quietly said, so Lexi could not overhear "We will talk before you go."

As she watched Dominic lead Warren Gong outside, she observed Warren Officer Wang trail being them, saying quietly for both Matthew and Lexi to hear "I will watch them Boss."

As he moved away, Lexi turned to Matthew and said, "Take me to a lounge area, and you better explain what in the world did you agree to with that gangster."

Without argument, Matthew nodded to the staff who quickly cleared away their bags, before pushing Lexi into the villa's heart, heading towards the informal lounge that overlooked the rear gardens. Without even asking, he carefully picked Lexi up and sat her on a sofa before sitting down himself and saying, "Ask your questions Lexi."

"Why in the world are you letting that gangster around our son?" came the angry question from Leix.

"Gangster he is Lexi, head of one of the worst criminal organisations in the country. I know it, he knows I know it, but proving that is another question. But he came to me as a concerned citizen, with a threat towards Dominic. That I will take seriously."
