Chapter 9

Lena looked at Sharon suspiciously and Sharon hurriedly shook her head sideways.

“Don’t listen to him. He doesn’t know what he’s saying. Why would I hit the vase on his head?,” she said pinching Jasper slightly.

Jasper winced in pain and glared at her. Lena looked at the two of them confused on why they are making such a fuss over nothing.

” Actually I don’t care what you do to him. If you want to hit him on the head with the vase, then do it. I actually think you need to reset brother’s brain,” Lena answered making Sharon laugh out loud.

Jasper looked slightly annoyed now. He was just about to say something when Tia suddenly starts to cry. Since Lena was the closest to the baby, she quickly went there and carried the baby.

As she carried Tia, it seems like her cries increased. Lena walked around trying to pacify the baby. Sharon walked over to her seeing that all her efforts to pacify the baby are not working.

Lena and Jasper watched in surprise as Tia stopped crying immediately Sharon carried her. Lena couldn’t believe her eyes. She walked to Jasper.

” This lady is an angel. You mustn’t let her slip away from you,” she whispered to Jasper.

He frowned as soon he heard what she said.

” I can’t date this fatty. One, she’s not my type. She is very rude. She…,” he couldn’t finish his statement cause Lena slapped his hand.

” Jeez! Sometimes I really wonder if you are the older sibling or perhaps they made a mistake at the hospital while recording your birth date,” she uttered and Jasper glared at her.

“I’m not asking you to date her or anything cause I can see you completely misunderstood my words. What I actually mean is that since Tia seem to like her don’t let her slip away,” Lena explained.

Jasper frowned again,” Then if I don’t date her. Should I ask her to marry me then?”

Lena hit her forehead sighing. Why is her brother so dumb?

” I wonder how you managed to have high I. Q when your E. Q is actually low. Ask her to help in babysitting Tia. That’s what I’ve been trying to tell you. You also have to pay her for her service,” Lena explained.

Jasper smiling finally as he understood what she has been trying to say…

That’s why Sharon is here now to pack all her valuable properties. The smile on Sharon’s face was completely wiped off as she entered her apartment.

She even checked again to make sure she didn’t enter the wrong place. But it’s really her apartment. Why does it look like world war ii occurred in the apartment?

She walked into the bedroom and gasped in shock. What the heck happened to her apartment? All the furnitures are completely ruined, all the clothes in her wardrobe shredded to pieces, everything is completely destroyed.

Sharon walked to the drawers where her most important files are kept. She panicked seeing that the lock has been broken and all the documents are gone.

She sat down on the floor and hugged her knees before she starts shedding silent tears. “Jeez! My life is completely ruined now. Without those documents, I can’t get a new job, a new apartment and I can’t even access my bank account. Gosh! What am I saying? My citizenship card is even there. That means I’m now an illegal immigrant.”

She bent her head and cried out,” What have I ever done to deserve this!!!? Why did they do this to me!!?”

She stayed in that position for a very long time. I think she must have fallen asleep. It was the knock on the door and the worried voice of the chauffeur that woke her up.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

“Miss… Miss… Are you alright?,” the chauffeur called out, knocking repeatedly. She stood up and walked to the bathroom to wash off the snot on her face. Then she walked to the door and tried to force a smile on her face.

But it is hard to do so because the chauffeur immediately noticed something is wrong judging from her ruffled clothes and swollen face.

“Ma”am, were you crying?,” the middle aged man asked worriedly.

Sharon cleaned her face and hurriedly said,” No, let’s go.”

” Ma”am, aren’t you taking your load again?,” he asked looking down in case she brought any.

Hearing his question, Sharon struggled to stop the stubborn tears from falling. She blinked and walked out saying,” There’s nothing to carry.”

Just before the door could close, the chauffeur caught a glimpse of the horrible state the house is in, he silently gasped. Then he hurriedly followed Sharon quietly.

He looked at her sad figure and thought,” Whatever is bothering miss is related to the state this house is in. I’ll have to tell boss.”

“That went well, didn’t it?,” Benedict asked Sheila. His personal assistant came into the office with a bunch of files then he left after submitting the files.

Sheila smiled as she sipped the orange juice given to her. ” Thank goodness, dad came up with a solution to solve that problem. Now once we announce our engagement, I won’t have to hide the fact that I love Aiden anymore.”

Benedict smiled and nodded. Then he proceeded to check the files. Sheila tried to peep into the files. But she felt it was bothersome so she asked,” Brother, what are those files for?”

” These are the files for the new applicants that are vying for the new vacant position in our company,” Benedict answered checking the files carefully.

” Who did you sack this time?,” she asked again slurping her juice. Ben raised his head to look at her, smiling at the how she’s making a noise with the juice.

“Sharon… Who else?”

Sheila almost choked on the juice. Ben hurriedly stood up to pat her back gently.

“Don’t rush while drinking. You have to take care of yourself,” he said worriedly.

Sheila coughed and asked,” Does father know about what you have done?”

” He doesn’t need to know. I’m the boss now,” Ben replied frowning a little.

“Besides, he won’t do anything even if he knows. She bashed my new car and almost killed you. So she’s got to pay for that,” he continued.

Sheila smiled and hugged him. ” Brother, why do you love me so much?”

“Cause you are my sister of course.”

“But Sharon is also your sister,” Sheila said looking up to see his expression.

Just as she expected, he frowned and answered,” I don’t care about her. I only care about you. Oh! Let me call one of my men to ask if she has gotten the surprise yet. She will be so shocked and next time, she wouldn’t dare to try me.”

He disengaged from the hug and brought out his phone.

“Oh my gosh! Brother, why don’t you call her again? Tia is making me frustrated with her endless cries,” Lena said walking around slowly still trying to pacify the wailing baby.

Her legs are now exhausted from walking around for too long. Jasper sighed and looked at the clock before looking at the doorway.

Why isn’t she here yet? It’s been so long since she left so why isn’t she back yet? She didn’t back out on the contract, did she?

“Brother, why aren’t you calling her? Call her. Let’s find out if something happened,” Lena almost screamed out of frustration.

Jasper scratched his head sheepishly and said,” Actually, I don’t have her number.” Lena stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Jasper in surprise.

“Then what have you two been doing all day?,” Lena asked and Jasper thought of it. Well, they haven’t done anything meaningful today apart the scenario in the kitchen.

Gosh! I’m shaking my head at the low E. Q this man has. Is the scenario in the kitchen something meaningful?

Looking at the expression on his face, Lena was about to say something when the door opened and Sharon walked in. They both noticed the dejected look on her face. They also noticed she isn’t with any load.

She was supposed to bring her things, so why is she empty handed?

“Sharon, are you alright? What happened to you and where are the things you were supposed to bring?,” Lena asked worriedly momentarily ignoring the baby.

It seems like the baby got tired of crying cause now she’s just whining softly. Sharon seem to be lost in thoughts cause she didn’t appear to have heard what Lena said.
