Chapter 6
Sharon frowned as she heard what Jimmy said. This naughty boy called her name a waste. She had guessed right when the little devil was smiling sweetly that he was up to something. This boy looks young enough to be aged seven or eight yet he behaves this rudely towards his elders.
"Forget what I said earlier. You are not cute at all. You are so rude just like your dad. How do people cope with you?," she remarked feeling very annoyed.
"I don't care! My girlfriends like me that way," he answered. Sharon gasped and Jasper looked at his son.
"What do you mean girlfriends? You are just seven!," Jasper asked astonished. Jimmy rolled his eyes. "Dad, which girl can resist me? I've got the looks, charm and lastly money," he answered making a COUNTING-MONEY expression with his hand.
Sharon hit her head lightly. This man is such a disgrace to fatherhood.
How does a little boy of seven years already know about things like kisses ?.
Sharon shook her head negatively," Jasper you are a bad influence. Look at what you've taught your son." Jasper glared at her.
"Where is the nursery?," Sharon asked as she checked the clock. She was surprised to see it's already so late. "Follow me," Jasper said leading the way.
Sharon quietly shut the door. At first when she put the baby in her cot, she whined and Sharon had to pat her gently. She had smiled and kissed the baby but Jimmy scowled.
"Don't kiss her!," he retorted. "Sssh, don't wake her up," Sharon hurriedly shushed him. He frowned and tried to suppress a yawn.
"Now go to bed. You have school tomorrow," she whispered as they walked out. Jimmy was about to say something but Jasper had to agree with Sharon on this.
"Yes, Jimmy go to bed. It's late already," Jasper said and Jimmy nodded. Before leaving he turned to Sharon and said," Fatty don't think I'm leaving because of you. I'm going because dad asked me to do so."
As he ran away, Sharon uttered," What a rude little boy? Jasper you are such a bad influence." Jasper glared at her," Shut up." He is getting sick of hearing the word " bad influence." Sharon suddenly felt hungry and decided it's time for her to leave.
"Now that my job is done, I'm going," she said and walked towards the door. She was expecting Jasper to say stuffs like," I'll ask my driver to take you home. Or stay it's too late to go."
But instead he said," Okay bye. I'm glad you are finally leaving fatty. You've been nothing but a nuisance since I helped you."
Sharon stopped feeling slightly hurt not even knowing why. She looked down at her dirty baggy dress. Why does everyone always criticize her body size? She blinked back the stupid tears threatening to fall.
Was this why Aiden cheated on her? "Okay," her voice so quiet that Jasper almost didn't hear. As she opened the door, he said," Yes, go and freeze out there tonight. Are you really that dumb fatty? Where are you gonna find a taxi at this hour?" Sharon turned back surprised. Then she smiled cheekily saying," Why don't you just say you don't want me to leave?" Jasper rolled his eyes and showed her the way to the guest rooms.
Then he left quickly afraid that if he spends any more minutes with her, his ears would burst from her endless chatters.
"She caught the two of you, right?," Ben asked as he watched Sheila eat hungrily. His heart brewing with intense anger. His sister is pregnant and that bitch almost killed her with hunger.
"Yes. It's even better she found out now cause of my baby. I don't want my baby to be born out of wedlock," she answered taking sequent mouthfuls of the food.
"What are you gonna do now? She might tell father. He won't be happy to hear what you have done," he said handing over a glass of water to her.
"
Father won't do anything. Besides I'll tell him the truth. She's the one that tried to take away my boyfriend, not the other way round. Who do you think father will believe? I'm pregnant while she... She has never even been to bed with him before," Sheila retorted.

Benedict smirked and looked up as Aiden brought more food for the Sheila. He brought out his phone and said," I'll still make her pay for doing this."
He sent a message and groaned when he received a reply.
"Brother, what is it?," Sheila asked concerned.
"I prepared a surprise for her at home but she's not there yet. I wonder where the bitch is by this time", he replied and Sheila smiled.
"No matter where she went to, she'll always come back. So we just have to wait a little bit," Sheila uttered with an evil smile on her face.
Later that night Sharon laid on the queen-size bed fiddling with the engagement ring on her finger. She sighed thinking of everything that had happened. Jasper and Jimmy had been helpful to her once today.
They helped her forget the sad incidents that happened to her. Now that she's alone, the memories came rushing back. She wiped off her tears and said," Why did they do this to me?" Since a young age even when Sheila did something wrong, she would try to cover up for her.
Though she still always got blamed before she could do anything. Once when they were teenagers, Ben fell so sick that everyone was scared he would die. Even though he had always maltreated her, he is still her brother. Her only brother whom she loved dearly.
The one she has always been yearning for love from. She didn't sleep a wink for three days helping the nurses in taking care for him since no one wanted to do so. Then she collapsed. When she woke up, she was excited to hear that he was finally awake but she didn't expect to receive cold treatment from him.
After all she had done, who knows what Sheila said to him to make him act that way. Why would her brother have so much hatred for her? She stood up from the bed and checked the mirror. " Am I really adopted?", her low voice resounding in the room. Questions but no... No answers.
She glared at the ring and went to the bathroom to throw it into the toilet. Then she paused and looked at the toilet. "This toilet is so beautiful. I can't throw this ugly ring into it and soil it beauty."

"So you just found out that it's ugly. You were screaming loudly when he gave you," that voice said. You know the voice that always speaks in your mind. Your subconscious.
Meanwhile in the masters bedroom, Jasper was on his bed holding a picture of a stunning South American beauty. She's smiling beautifully in the picture.
Jasper smiled and stroked the picture lightly," You know what Amber? I met a fatty today. Don't ask me if I like her cause I don't. She's rude, ugly well maybe a little pretty and she's chubby. I wish you were here right now. You could have met her and maybe liked her. I miss you a lot bestfriend. Do you miss me too?"
He stopped, tears clogging his throat. "I couldn't save you that day Amber and I regret it everyday of my life. You were right. I don't love you. I've never loved you. I don't have a place in my heart for love. But you were my best friend. You were always there for me. At least I could have saved you for Tia. She's always crying..."
He continued mumbling until he gradually fell asleep. Sharon also fell asleep hugging a pillow tightly. Two hearts coming closer yet there's an immeasurable distance.
"What! No dad we don't need this fatty," Jimmy shouted. Tia had woken them up with her loud cries this morning and Sharon was able to stop her from crying. Now Jasper is saying she should stay till Lena returns.
And the best part is that he'll pay. But one short little devil doesn't want to agree. Sharon sighed and looked at Jimmy. He is so cute in his uniform that many people that sees him will think he's a sweet little boy but only Sharon knows that he's nothing but a short little devil.
"I'm not talking about you. Tia needs her," Jasper replied and Jimmy tiptoed to look at Tia who is in her high baby carrier. He asked her with a surprisingly soft voice," Tia you don't need her, do you?"
But the baby turned to look at Sharon and giggled softly at her smile. Jimmy looked like a deflated balloon. " Maybe Tia needs her but I don't! Where's my aunt Lena?", he retorted.
