Chapter 192 - One Hundred And Ninety-two: Be My SugarBaby (1/2)

The third point of view:

”Well, for your information, My father who I have no clue about, is an emotionless son of a biscuit who doesn't even know of my existence and my mom? A self-centered witch who prefers one daughter over the other. So if you asked me to choose? I would choose neither, I'm better off alone!”

For some strange reason, her idea of ”staying alone”  didn't sit well with Sakuzi. He just recently found out about her existence, he wasn't going to let her go that easily.

”What if your father never knew you existed? That does happen a lot, we see it all over the world ” he asked, hoping he would get a positive reply this time.

Maya replied,” He must have been an asshole for Angela to hide the pregnancy from him all this while”

Sakuzi's jaw ticked, his expression darkened. Angela had always been a touchy subject for him and if it wasn't the fact that this girl was his precious daughter, he would have strangled her to death for talking to him that way.

Maya sensed the sudden change in his demeanor which made her shift uneasily to the side.

What was wrong with this crazy man? Why was she sensing a killing intent from him? Was it because of what she said and how did it even concern him? It was not even his business in the first place, it was he who raised it. So why was he giving her that murderous gaze?

Sakuzi upon recognizing he let his emotion get the best of him, calmed down at once. He was terrifying his little princess and that shouldn't be.

Maya was the little princess of the Sakuzi clan and deserved to be cherished. All mafia groups honored blood, so illegitimate or not, the girl was one of them.

Which was why he was hell-bent on taking revenge on Niklaus for his murdered son. Thankfully, his daughter Maya would not be married to that asshole or any scum from the Spencer family.

”Come”

Maya jumped out of her skin, though his hand barely touched her.

Seeing she was scared of him, his voice became softer, ”Come closer, I will not hurt you” he beckoned her.

She gave him a suspicious look for a while, ”You won't hurt me?'

”Yes, I won't. I give you my word” he promised her.

She took a deep breath before dragging herself towards him slowly yet cautiously. She knew he wouldn't hurt her at least not today- Sakuzi is bound by his words.

Sakuzi laughed inwardly, eyeing the little space between him and his daughter. He reached out and pulled her flush against him, resting her head on his chest.

Maya stiffened, she said it! He liked her and now he was beginning to make advances at her! *Weep*weep* she doesn't want to become a sugar baby.

”Relax my princess, don't worry about a thing” he whispered into her ear.

Pride swelled in Sakuzi's heart as he stroked his daughter's hair. It was just a simple gesture but he felt like it was the biggest achievement in his lifetime; spending time with his baby girl. All these years, he had only sons who were rough and didn't behave cute enough to be doted upon.

Even without experience, education, nor civilization, call it primate instincts or something, but Sakuzi somehow knew this daughter of his was to be protected and adorned.

”This is creepy, why is that man touching my hair” Maya cried inwardly. She had watched a bunch of movies where psychopaths after kidnapping their victim, would caress their hair in this manner before killing them.

Seriously, remembering this in this kind of situation was not helping!

One couldn't have imagined how happy Maya was the instant they reached the restaurant.

No sooner had the chauffeur pulled up at the parking space did she push free out of Sakuzi's arm, and stepped out of the car as if a ghost were on her chase. She didn't even give Emerald nor her ”date”  for the night the chance to open the door for her.

The cool night air hitting her face testified of her freedom. All the air in the car had depleted when Sakuzi put his arm around her. Maya was not sure she would survive his next move without breaking down.

What if he arranged for a private room where the both of them would have dinner together - a candlelight dinner with a romantic number playing in the background as Sakuzi leans forward while she leans back, shaking her head frantically as he tries to kiss her.

”What are you doing?”

The stupid imagination in Maya's head was knocked out.

Sakuzi had just stepped out of the car only to see her staring in space and shaking her head to the sides with her lips pressed together as if protesting against something.

Maya gasped and placed a hand on her chest. That scared the hell out of her,” It's nothing,”

”Is anything bothering you?” The observant father couldn't help but ask. His daughter somehow looks unhappy and he didn't like it.
