Entangled With The Crippled Billionaire

Jasper looked at her carefully. Her face looks red and a little bit swollen. Why? Did she cry? Who made her cry? He turned his wheelchair around and left.

Lena walked towards Sharon. She was about to tap Sharon when the baby whined loudly and Sharon finally noticed them. She cleaned her face immediately and collected the baby from her. Her body shaking slightly as she hugged the baby close. "What's wrong... What's... What's wrong with... With Tia? Her body is unusually warm," she said planting tiny kisses on Tia's face. Lena looked at her knowing something is wrong. Why is she stuttering? "It's just because she has crying ever since you left. I'll check if there is medicine for it."

Then she left the sitting room. As soon as she left, Sharon looked down and noticed Tia looking at her curiously. She smiled and kissed her again.

"Honey, did you miss me that much?," she asked the baby who only giggled not understanding what she just said.

"Do you think if I ask Daddy for help, he'll answer me?," she said to Tia.

"Ask me about what?," Jasper asked coming into the sitting room.

Sharon hurriedly shut her mouth not sure if she should talk or not. Jasper looked at her intently.

"Fatty, what happened to you? I was worried because I didn't even have any number I could call to reach you. What went wrong? Why didn't you come back with anything at least clothes?," Jasper asked desperately seeking for answers. Sharon looked down and tried to hide the tears in her eyes. The tears suddenly clogging her throat.

"I'm fine," she said in a soft and low voice. Jasper steered his wheelchair towards her.

"I know you are not fine. Please, tell me what happened? This is actually the first time I'm begging. So tell me what happened," he asked again.

Sharon racked her brain for excuses but couldn't think of any. Then she suddenly looked down and saw that Tia is falling asleep.

"I'll tell you later. I have to take Tia to her room," she then rushed out of the sitting room. As soon she put the fast asleep baby in her cot, she bent down and let the tears flow.

"I don't deserve this... I haven't done anything to deserve this," she murmured over and over again letting the bitterness in her heart out.

Meanwhile as Jasper looked at the departing figure, he figured out that something is really wrong but she doesn't want to talk. Why didn't she even bring any cloth? She can't be wearing the same dress everyday. It's unhygienic. He thought of who to call and finally remembered the chauffeur. He called the man in.

"What happened to miss?," Jasper asked the chauffeur as soon as the hr came in. The man quickly narrated everything he knows.

Jasper smirked and asked him to leave. Then he looked at the doorway and silently thought, "It seems like fatty has lots of things I don't know about her."

He brought out his phone and sent a message, within few minutes he received an answer. His expression turning cold as he read the message. It says,

Sir, I've searched for all the information I could gather about her. Sharon Winston. First daughter of the Winston family. She was restricted from attending events with family. Reasons unknown. Had to work to fend for herself and pay her college fees. Recently lost her job at the Winston company. Her brother is the CEO. Her house was wrecked and crashed by unknown yesterday according to the owner of the house.

Jasper read the message over and over again. He connected the dots together and could figure out why fatty looked so dejected. Why did her family treat her so badly?

If she was sacked from the company, that means her brother is aware of it and he still let them do it. Who wrecked her house?

He smiled coldly and called someone. As soon as he ended the call, he said," After this, they won't dare bully her again. If they try, I'll be waiting for them."

He steered his wheelchair to Tia's room and was surprised to see her on the floor. She's already asleep on the hard tiles. The dried tears still evident on her face.

With great difficulty, he was finally able to carry her on his laps. Don't ask me how he did it cause I honestly don't know. He then steered his wheelchair which was moving slowly due to the weight of the people on it.

And since his room is the closest to Tia's room, he went in and laid her on the bed. As soon as he finished, he stretched his body cause of cramps... Muscle cramp not menstrual cramp.

Then he went to the other side of the bed and... I'll tell you what happened in the next episode.

"Boss! There's a huge problem boss," a man rushed into the office carrying a laptop. Benedict looked annoyed that someone interrupted his work.

"What is it? Can't you see I'm working and why haven't you left yet? It's already late and even most of the staffs have closed for the day," Benedict asked frustrated.

"Boss, worry about that later. You need to check our stock. It's going down at an alarming rate," the man said. Benedict looked at him with a kind of ARE-YOU-OKAY look.

He has just finished checking the stock and is about to close for the day. So what's this fool talking about now? The man shook his head sideways noticing the I-DON"T-BELIEVE-YOU look on his boss face.

He quickly showed him the laptop and Benedict gasped in shock. He opened his own laptop and checked on it. He even blinked his eyes severally to make sure he isn't seeing things.

"What the heck!? What happened to the stock? Why is decreasing like this? This can lead to bankruptcy. If the shareholders find about, they will possibly pull out their shares," Benedict said then he quickly begin to type something on his laptop.

He sighed in frustration, knowing this may let him go home later tonight or he might not even go home at all if it turns out to be more serious than he thought. Just as he was typing furiously, his phone rang. As soon as he checked it, he almost fainted.

It's the second biggest shareholder that is calling him. He panicked not knowing what to do.

After the phone rang few more times, he then picked the call. "What the heck is going on Ben!? Why is our stock suddenly decreasing like that!?," the man asked angrily immediately he picked up the phone.

Ben sighed and shoved his hands into his hair roughly. He's panicking right now thinking of what could have happened. Why is their stock suddenly decreasing?

It hasn't even been up to few minutes that he checked it when the man came in with his laptop. And the stock was perfectly fine then.

"Why aren't you saying anything Ben!? Who did you offend!? I knew we should never have picked you to be the CEO. Your father was doing perfectly fine!," the shareholder ranted.

Ben frowned hearing what he just said. This particular shareholder has never really liked him since the time he was nominated to be the CEO. He always wondered why the old man hates his guts so much that he is always against every decision he takes in the company.

"Sir, I didn't offend anyone and I'll fix it right away. I also don't know why it is decreasing so fast," he quickly answered.

"You had better fix it right away or be prepared to be removed," the shareholder said and cut the call.

Ben sighed in frustration and imitated the shareholder's words. "He only knows how to invest and complain. He can't do half of what I do and he still has the guts to complain," Ben soliloquized.

Then he tugged off his tie and faced his computer. He feels like it's gonna be a long night for him.

Sharon yawned tiredly and slowly opened her eyes. She immediately closed it back having a sudden headache caused the bright sun rays seeping into the room.

She lay down for a while and finally opened it again. Looking around the room, nothing feels or look familiar. She tried sitting up wondering where she is when she felt a strong hold pulling her back to bed.

Looking down, she noticed it's just someone's hand. She quickly turned around to see who it is and gasped.

"Jas...Jas... Jasper, what is he doing here? Wait, what am I doing here?," she murmured lowly looking up at his face. Then she blushed slowly realizing the position they are in.
