Entangled With The Crippled Billionaire

****

“Jasper, don’t be so mean. I told you I don’t want to go,” Sharon answered with a sleepy tone as she tossed on the bed. Jasper checked his time and gently pat her again so she can stand up and get ready.

“Do you know you sleep like a log of wood? You were snoring so loudly that you didn’t hear when Lena came in to pick up Tia. Now the little princess is all dressed and ready for work. It’s only mommy that’s delaying,” Jasper told her.

Sharon groaned,”What the heck is wrong with you? I told you I’m not going. It’s not by force so let me be. Did you even have to tell me I sleep like a log of wood?”

“Okay, I’m sorry so will you stand up now? I’m running late for my meeting. Also once you finish, come and have your breakfast so you can take your drugs,” Jasper answered and quickly turned his wheelchair around to leave the room.

He didn’t even give her anytime to reply. Sharon groaned as she finally stood up from the bed and walked to the bathroom grumpily. By time she gives his office a new look, he will understand that he shouldn’t have forced her to go.

Jasper looked up as Sharon headed downstairs. He sucked in a deep breath as he noticed the short and fitted gown she’s wearing. This cloth totally brought out all her hidden curves.

He frowned as he suddenly realized something. If her beauty has stunned him so much like this, then when they get to the company it will be trouble after trouble.

“No… No… This isn’t allowed in the company so go back and change,” he ordered her. Lena looked at him surprised with a silent thought on her mind,”Since when did your company have dressing rules brother?”

But she knows if she say that, Jasper will probably punish her. So she kept quiet. There was also one other person in the room that is also watching the scenario curiously.

It’s Ann. She looked at Sharon enviously while trying to hold in her temper. Why should this b*tch who just appeared out of nowhere be the one to capture Jasper’s attention? What about her that has been here before and after his wedding?

“You wish. I’m going nowhere. If you know you don’t want to go to your work late, mind your own business. As for this outfit, I’m not changing it,” she replied.

Jasper’s frown widened as he looked at her. She’s quite a stubborn and rude fellow. He didn’t say anything anymore. Just dug into his food.

Sharon also sat down and ate. After sometime, she looked around and said,”I can’t remember the last time I saw Jimmy. Where’s he?”

Lena looked at Jasper as he momentarily stopped eating. But then he continued eating and told her that,”He has gone to school.” He was still wondering how Sharon will react when she learns of what Jimmy did when Ann stood up and indicated that she’s leaving.

Jasper also abandoned his half eaten food as he suggested,”Ann, let me drop you off since I would be passing the hospital on my way to the company.”

Ann smirked but Sharon internally groaned. She could tell that the other woman doesn’t like her.

Sharon bade goodbye to Lena and attached the front baby carrier before carrying Tia. She looked at her unfinished food longingly as she followed Ann and Jasper. Jasper probably didn’t notice that she didn’t take those bitter drugs. Jasper looked back and saw the look on her face.

He chuckled. “What’s wrong?,” he asked her with a soft tone. Sharon glared at him and looked away. “Don’t talk to me. It’s all your fault. If you hadn’t forced me to follow you to the office. I’ll still be enjoying my breakfast by now,” Sharon told him with a cute pout.

Jasper suddenly have the irresistible urge to kiss her pouted lips but he stopped himself cause he knows how crazy she can be. She might slap his face. Moreover she’s taller than him cause he’s on this freaking wheelchair.

“Is that it? Don’t worry. When we get to the office, I’ll get someone to buy you all the foods and snacks you want. Be it jam donuts, strawberry milkshake, pizza, omelette, chocolate filled donuts or…,” Sharon didn’t let him finish as she looked at him with excitement filled eyes.

Jasper looked at her wondering what he said to make her look so happy. He hasn’t seen her looking this happy since she came. You just need to add bunny ears and tail to her appearance now and she’ll practically be hopping in excitement.

“What is it?,” he asked her with a very curious look.

“Did you say chocolate filled donuts?,” she asked excitedly. Oh! So that why she’s looks so excited. It seems like she’s a lover of chocolate just like I am.

“Yes, anything chocolate that you want,” Jasper promised her as his bodyguards helped him into the car. My mind is telling me now that he should never have made that promise.

Sharon smiled mischievously as she entered the car. Hmm! Anything chocolate. It seems like this is the most loving and special words she has ever heard in a while.

She didn’t have the luxury to eat chocolate like she wanted to in the past. And now that someone is handing over the authority for her to eat chocolate as she like, why shouldn’t she be excited?

She looked at Jasper cunningly and he gulped. Why does he feel like he just made a mistake?

“Thank you. Please call again if there’s any problem and make sure she use her drugs,” Ann said with a loving smile as she touched Jasper’s hand.

Sharon looked at where she was touching and rolled her eyes. She’s talking like she even cares. Even if she wants to talk does she have to touch him like that.

She turned her face away and hissed loud enough for Jasper and Ann to hear. Jasper looked at her wondering why she’s hissing instead of thanking Ann. Meanwhile Ann smirked again. Even if they are interested in each other, their relationship isn’t strong enough. So any little intruder can just disrupt it.

Ann made notes of everything she has learnt from them. The weak points and many more things that can be used against the two of them. Once they got to the hospital, she thanked Jasper again by bending down to hug him before finally leaving.

Sharon didn’t even say a word to Jasper cause she was completely pissed off by the way Ann was behaving to spite her. Jasper wanted to talk to her but once he noticed the foul expression on her face, he kept quiet while wondering what caused it.

Jasper was totally clueless as to why she’s angry. Not quite long after they got to the company. The bodyguards helped Jasper out of the car and pushed him. Sharon followed behind them as she adjusted the baby carrier.

Tia yawned as she slowly opened her eyes. She blinked cutely for a while trying to adjust the brightness of the morning sun and Sharon couldn’t resist kissing her forehead. She’s so cute and adorable.

Tia looked up and when she saw Sharon’s familiar face, she smiled. She tried to raise her hand but the baby carrier won’t allow. So she began to whine softly with an expression that clearly says MOMMY-I-DON”T-LIKE-IT-HERE.

If it only she could talk. Sharon only cooed at her trying to tell her to have patience till they get into Jasper’s office. But Tia clearly doesn’t want to be patient cause she just continued whining.

Just then they walked into the company and the noisy company all quietened at once as the employees on the first floor turned to look at the people that has just come in.

Their eyes widened as they noticed their CEO with his usual cold look on a wheelchair. They hurriedly bowed to greet him. No one dared to say a word out of fear.

Those that have been slacking off in work due to the impertinence of the manager in charge shook terribly. They never expected Jasper to come to work. If he were to find out how they have been misbehaving in the company these days, they are afraid that not only will they lose their jobs. They will also lose their necks.

“Sir, we’ve finally gotten a signal!,” the man cried out as he told Mr Winston. “You gotten a signal of what!?,” he asked as he sat up on his study chair.

“We’ve gotten a signal of the location where Miss Sharon is. Not the exact location but all we know now is that she’s in Allen avenue,” the man told him.

Mr Winston paused as he heard the popular street. Isn’t that where Madon’s company is located making the street really popular?.
