“Boss, I bought the shares. Fifty to be precise. Within eighteen seconds sir,” the man said as he called Jasper. Jasper smirked and looked at Sharon.

“I suddenly feel greedy. Buy the remaining shares and kick out the current CEO. They have to pay for what they have done,” Jasper replied.

The man wanted to ask,’Boss why did they do you?’ but he swallowed his words. No one dared to question the boss. “I’m on it sir. I’ll give you feedback,” the man answered before cutting the call.

He sighed and looked at his laptop as soon as he cut the call. This is gonna be difficult. Cause the remaining shares is in possession of the current CEO. How on earth will he convince the owner of the company to sell his shares?

He doesn’t know why his boss has such a quite exquisite and difficult taste. Why does he even suddenly have interest in this small company?

********

Jasper looked at Sharon as soon as he cut the call. He stroked her cheeks and mumbled to her,“You should have waited in the office like I asked you to. Why didn’t you wait for me? Why did you let them do this to you?”

Cole sighed and replied,“Cousin, didn’t you know she would get bored? Why would you leave her in the office for so long? Why did you even take her there in the first place?”

“I didn’t expect the meeting to take such a long time. And she was sick that’s why I asked her to tag along with me to the office,” Jasper answered him.

Just then the car stopped in the garage. As a bodyguard carried Sharon in with Jasper closely behind them, Lena rushed to the entrance holding a wailing baby. Our baby Tia of course.

“Oh my God! What happened? Who did this to her!!?,” Lena shouted as she saw the bruises on Sharon’s body. Sorry mistake, I mean injuries. The shout made Tia’s cry even louder.

“Have you called Ann?,” Jasper replied and Lena nodded.

“Oh my! Why is the little princess crying?,” Cole asked as he collected Tia from Lena. Lena smiled and greeted him,“She missed her mom.”

Cole looked confused,“Her mom?” “She was missing Sharon,” Lena explained. Cole nodded as he now understood what she was trying to say.

They followed Jasper as he took Sharon to his room. As soon as he laid her on the bed, Sharon stirred but didn’t wake. Instead the tears started falling again.

Jasper couldn’t help but sigh. Lena looked at her sadly. “She has been crying like this although she didn’t open her eyes. Why would they do this to her? How could they have hurt their own daughter like this?,” Jasper spoke harshly, his face taut with anger.

Lena climbed on the bed and pats Sharon’s hair slowly. “Sister in-law, it’s okay. Please stop crying,” she told Sharon gently on the bed. But Sharon only trembled on the bed.

“It… It hurts… It hurts alot,” she said quietly. Those familiar words. Jasper looked angry as he shouted,“I’m tired of hearing her say those words. I so much hate that word it hurts. I swear I will kill those bastards for daring to touch her like this.”

He brought out his phone, prepared to call the bodyguards in charge of torturing Mr and Mrs Winston but Cole collected the phone from his hand.

“Cousin, don’t act so rashly. Let her get better first,” Cole told him trying to persuade him to calm down. Lena went out and came back with an ointment.

She began to rub it slowly on Sharon’s swollen cheeks. By now Tia already fell asleep from exhaustion of crying too much. Jimmy walked in quietly. He looked at Jasper and the latter also looked at him.

None of them said anything. Similar faces staring at each other with the same cold expression. Cole looked at them wondering what’s going on.

“Jimmy, are you mad at me? Why didn’t you greet your favourite uncle?,” Cole asked him and Jimmy finally noticed him. He ran to Cole and smiled. “I’m sorry uncle. How do you do?,” he asked him with that cute, adorable expression.

“I’m fine. You?,” he asked. Jimmy was about to say something when Sharon suddenly winced out loud. Jimmy looked around suprised and saw Lena applying something on Sharon’s face.

He walked towards the bed curiously. Ever since that bathroom incident, he hasn’t seen her. But he thought she is already healthy. As soon he got to bed, he opened his mouth in suprise. He gradually felt even more guilty than before when he saw the injuries on her body.

Sharon has never done anything bad to him and he treated her that way. Lena saw the look on his face and before she could even say anything, Jimmy already ran to Jasper.

“Dad! I’m sorry. Please tell aunty Sharon to wake up. I’m sorry,” he cried out shocking everyone in the room. Cole looked at him wondering what he’s talking about.

Why is he acting like Sharon is dead? Well, he doesn’t understand how children minds work. They can see something and just think of the worst scenario. Jimmy probably thought Sharon is dead and he’s the one that killed her by locking in the bathroom.

Jasper chuckled and carried him with a little bit of difficulty. It seems like this little brat is gaining much weight lately. He laughed softly and Jimmy frowned with his cheeks already w-t.

“Dad, it’s not funny. Please tell aunty Sharon to wake up!,” he said again. Jasper couldn’t help but continue laughing. See the little brat. He always claimed he is matured as he is seven years plus. But he simply panicked cause he saw Sharon on the bed with injuries all over her body.

“Stop crying you little brat. I’m glad you are sorry now but don’t panic. She is not dead,” Jasper told him.

Jimmy simply looked at him refusing to believe what he is saying. He already watched this in a movie before where the parents of the child died and they lied to the child that they are not dead.

“Dad, tell aunty Sharon to wake up! I want to tell her sorry. I won’t call her fatty again or lock her in the bathroom,” he said and Cole jaw slackened in astonishment.

“You locked cousin in-law in the bathroom!,” he said and Jimmy looked down not knowing how to answer. Lena laughed and answered,“Yes, he thought it was fun so he locked her up and then slept off. Where the heck is Ann!? Why is she taking so much time to come?”

Just as she said that, Ann walked in with her box. You know all those medical box that always has sign of red cross on it. I think it’s called the first aid box.

“I am here already. Oh my good Lord! What happened to her?,” Ann couldn’t stop herself from shouting as she saw the injuries on Sharon’s body.

Inwardly, she was secretly thanking whoever did this to Sharon. The b*tch deserves it. Meanwhile Cole went out to put Tia in her cot cause all these noises may wake her.

Ann checked Sharon’s body and begin to administer treatment on her. As soon as she was done, Sharon looked better than before. The plasters on her body covering the injuries. Her cheeks also looked less swollen unlike before.

Ann wrote down a list of drugs for her and gave it to Lena before saying,“If she keeps on getting injured and not being able to recover from the cold, I’m afraid she will have to come to the hospital for proper treatment.”

Lena nodded and Jasper only stared at Sharon. Jimmy asked quietly,“Is aunty Sharon going to be okay?” Ann looked at him and smiled at the mini version of Jasper.

She bent down and said,“Of course honey, your aunt will be fine.” She smiled sweetly and reached out to pat his hair but Jimmy stopped her with an annoyed glare.

“Don’t touch me,” he said coldly and Ann’s fingers froze in the air. Even though she kept the smile on her face, she was seriously annoyed at the little brat.

How dare he talk to her so rudely? Meanwhile Jimmy glared at her. She thinks he will be fooled with her fake smile, then she should try again.

“Thank you Ann. I’m grateful. Lena will lead you out,” Jasper said and Ann nodded disappointed. What was she thinking that he would ask her to stay like before? Lena led her out and Jimmy followed.

Jasper went to the bed and stroked Sharon’s hair. Then after a while, he said,“Will you marry me if I ask you to?” Wtf!!!.

Jasper went to the bed and stroked Sharon’s hair. Then after a while, he asked,“Will you marry me if I ask you to?” Wtf!!! He looks like he is deeply in thoughts when he asked her.

He was also looking down when he asked. “I don’t like the way they treated you. If you marry me, I can provide all the security, protection and finances that you need. You won’t have to worry about them retaliating anymore…,” he continued mumbling to himself like he was practicing how to ask her when she wakes up.

Sharon smiled as she heard him mumbling to himself. She has actually been awake since, even when Ann was here. But since she hates that woman so much, she acted like she was asleep.

She opened her mouth to say something but nothing came out. She closed her mouth back in pain. Her cheeks ache alot. She can’t even talk out of pain.

She wanted to tell him. Why? Why does he want to marry her? Why is he being so nice to her? So nice that it is actually terrifying. She is just a stranger to him. Why is he acting so kind?

She is just his employee, shouldn’t he treat her just like Tia’s nanny? Her eyes revealed a coldness glint as she remembered what had happened earlier.

Those pair of annoying old couple. She has been giving them respect cause they were supposed to be her parents but who knew they weren’t even her biological parents. Now all those suffering makes sense.

They treated her this way cause she is not their flesh and blood. But if her real father is really Mr Winston’s younger brother, why did they treat her cruelly?

Why didn’t they tell her about her parents? Why didn’t they say anything about a younger brother? What type of a man was her father? How did he and her mother die?

What type of life did they live before they died? All these questions with no answers made her head ache even more. She could now feel that there is more to this matter than the Winston couple are telling her.

There must be something they are still not telling her. .“Even if I ask her, will she marry me? God! I’m such a fool to have thought of something like this,” Jasper spoke laughing to himself.

Sharon smiled and reached out to pat his hair slightly. Since she can’t say anything, she will at least try to show him. Jasper froze as he felt the light touch on his head. He looked up to see her staring at him.

He felt both relieved and suprised to see her awake. ‘How long has she been awake? Did she hear everything?,’ Jasper thought as the tips of his eyes begin to turn pink with blush.

Sharon shook her head vigorously indicating yes. Jasper blushed as he found out that he had said his thoughts out loud. But then he realized something and looked at her puzzled,“What’s wrong? Why aren’t you saying anything? Are you okay?”

He panicked as he thought that perhaps those annoying couple had done something to her. She only smiled looking at how worried he is. Jasper was a little bit pissed.

He is asking her questions and she is smiling in response. Jasper flicked his forehead as he remembered that he is supposed to give her water when she wakes up.

He moved to the jug already placed on top of the bedside drawer and gave her water. As soon as she drank like four cups of water, she could now speak again.

“What were you saying?,” she asked him quietly. Jasper looked down not knowing how to answer. “How do you feel now?,” he asked, ignoring her question.

“I feel like I’ve been hit by a truck,” she tried to laugh but it only made her throat hurt the more.

Jasper’s eyes turned cold as he thought of the terrible state he met her earlier. Those couple won’t surely go scot-free. Even that stupid son won’t be left out. He knew his sister was being maltreated yet he did nothing.

He had the guts to sack her from the company with no valid reason and rip off the source of her livelihood from her.

“Now don’t try to distract me. I asked you a question,” Sharon said with a slightly narrowed eyes.

“Forget I ever said anything. Just forget about it,” he replied.

“Do you really want to marry me?,” Sharon asked him not willing to back down. Jasper looked at her. Why is she saying this like he is begging to marry her?

“I’m not marrying you for any ulterior motive. I just want to help you take revenge. You won’t need to deal with those pesky family members of yours again,” he answered.

“Thank you for offering but I don’t need your help in taking revenge on them,” she told him blatantly. Jasper sighed. Why is she so stubborn?

“But yes, I’ll marry you. I want to find out what happened to my father and my mother. How they died and why? But I can’t do that on my own. I need your affluence to do so,” she said.

Jasper didn’t know why he suddenly felt relieved and happy that she agreed to marry him. But he looked at her confused. What is she talking about? What parents? Die?

“What are you saying? I already have your parents and I haven’t killed them so don’t label me as a murderer. But you can do so after I kill them,” he retorted.

Sharon seriously has the urge to laugh but she is afraid to do so because of her cheeks. “Dummy, I don’t mean them. They are not my real parents. They made sure I know about that earlier,” she replied.

Jasper looked suprised for just a second. So that’s why they have always maltreated her.

“Good. Now I’m free to torture them and kill them just like I want,” Jasper told with an evil smirk on his face.

“No, don’t kill them yet. They are still useful. But dear hubby, please torture them very well for your future wifey,” Sharon said teasingly. She didn’t expect that her words will greatly affect him.

He sat frozen on his wheelchair with a stunned expression on his face. The word ‘hubby’ couldn’t stop resounding in his mind.

“What did you just say?,” he asked her incredulously.

“Erm… I said you should torture them for me,” Sharon answered, pretending not to know what he’s talking about.

“No, you said something else…,” Jasper noticed the mischievous smile on her face and his face darkened. He steered his wheelchair closer to the bed and narrowed his eyes at her.

“Are you trying to tease me? I would have taught you a lesson if you weren’t in a bad shape right now,” he uttered.

“What? I was only practicing what to call you when we get married. Mind you, just because I’m calling you hubby doesn’t mean we have to do somethings,” she replied.

“What things?,” he asked.

“You know what I’m talking about. The couple stuffs. If you dare try any nonsense with me, I’ll chop off your prick. Because I forgot what you did that time doesn’t mean I’ve forgiven you. You will still pay for it. The doctor didn’t say you have to give me that specific type of body heat,” she told him with a challenging look.

Jasper only smirked and answered,“I’ll love to see you try. Since I’m the one that will help you through this marriage, you have to follow every of my commands.”

“You wish. Hubby, it’s better to back out from this contract now while you still have time cause I’m not your slave and won’t do everything you ask me to,” Sharon said it loud and clear.

“We will see about that and that reminds me. Wifey, do you know you now have new list of medicines to take?,” Jasper chuckled as Sharon’s face revealed a horrified look.

Drugs again!!! Those couple will surely go to hell for putting her in this condition.

*****

“Sir, Mr Anonymous wants to see you.” Ben looked up as one of his subordinates came in to inform him of the arrival of a new visitor in the company.

He still can’t get over the shock that a stranger literally bought the shares just like that. “Why are you calling him anonymous? Doesn’t he have a name? And I’m not ready to see anyone,” Ben retorted.

“But sir, it’s concerning the shares. He claims to have come with some sort of proposal.” Ben’s ears perked up as he heard the word ‘shares’. He immediately stood up and walked out. As soon as he got the conference room, the handsome young man waiting patiently stood up.

“Nice to meet you once again Ben,” he said with a smile and Ben couldn’t hide his shocked look. At this rate, he is afraid he might pass out due to the multiple suprise he has received.
