章)As soon as Sharon and Jasper walked in, a slender beauty rushed towards them carrying a wailing baby. Sharon was taken aback.
She silently hit herself inwardly and whispered, Im such a fool. I just willingly followed him not even thinking about the possibility of him having a mistress. What if she starts a fight thinking Im here to snatch her man?"
She was very surprised when the lady said, Brother thank God you are back. Ive fed her, changed her diaper, bath for her and even sang sweet lullabies to her but she wont stop crying."
She walked around in a semi circle trying to pacify the wailing baby. What do I do now? I have a date with Mac and Im not even ready yet," she panicked not even noticing Sharon.
Calm down Lena. Just calm down. Ill call the nanny service right away and see if theres anyone available to watch Tia for tonight," Jasper said bringing out his phone.
Let me carry her. I may not be good at many things but Im good with babies," Sharon said and Lena finally noticed her. She looked at Jasper, her eyes twinkling with mischief and amusement.
Brother, you actually brought a lady home. Shes so beautiful and…," she didnt finish when Jasper suddenly interrupted her.
Shut up Lena. I thought you had a date. And shes not beautiful at all. Shes rude and chubby. I only helped her," Jasper remarked.
You arrogant bastard. I didnt ask for your help," Sharon replied pulling his hair lightly.
Jasper winced in pain and said, Hey watch it! No cussing in front of my daughter. I dont want your bad character to influence my princess."
Lena feeling amused watched them banter about foolish pointless things. The baby seemed to have noticed that they ignored her so she let out a loud scream followed by wails.
Her sudden loud cries immediately stopped those two from arguing. Even Lena was scared by her sudden outburst. Ssh… Ssh… Sssh baby dont cry," she whispered trying to pacify the baby who only increased the volume of her cries.
Give her to me and get dressed," Sharon said collecting the baby from her. Lena hurriedly pecked the babys cheek and ran upstairs to get dressed.
Sharon carried the tiny pretty baby and lay against her chest before patting her gently. She then began to sing low lullabies. Jasper watched in amazement as Tia slowly stopped crying and even started giggling.
He looked at Sharon who was smiling while singing to Tia. It is actually suprising that Tia allowed her to even carry her cause ever since Ambers death she wouldnt allow anyone to touch her.
Just crying profusely. It was only recently that she began to accept Lena carrying her. Even when the wet nurse wants to breastfeed her, she wouldnt accept. Thats one of the reasons why he didnt bother hiring wet nurses again.
Tia giggled again and Jasper lifted his beautiful hazel eyes to look at them. His heartbeat quickened just gazing at Sharons enchanted face with the most beautiful smile plastered on it.
Hes just realised that she actually looks more pretty with a smile on her face. She was quite pitiful earlier with dried tears and snot evident on her face. Now shes smiling so beautifully at Tia who seem very happy to see the smile.
He lay back on his wheelchair obtaining a comfortable position then he observed Sharon quietly. She cant be considered as beautiful. Yet she isnt ugly. Well he cant really say much with the baggy clothes shes wearing.
She is not tall. And she is a little bit chubby. Jasper shook his head at that thought. Nope! She is not a little bit chubby. She is very chubby. The only thing he likes about her right now is her beautiful smile that Tia seem to have fallen in love with.
Other than that, her other qualities are so horrible. He listed them in his head. Shes so rude, sassy, and ungrateful. She kept on screaming for him to let her go when he only did her a favour. She looked like she didnt have any where to go back there and he only tried to save her from freezing to death.
He sighed and soliloquised, This is what happens when you try to be good Jas. Its just better keeping your cold-hearted reputation." Sharon heard him mumbling and turned to look at him.
What did you say grumpy?," she asked him. He frowned at her for calling him grumpy. I wasnt talking to you fatty" Sharon gasped pouting.
Jasper looked at her pouted lips and said, If that is what you call a cute pout, Ill rather kiss a duck instead of you."
Sharon glared at him, Who wants to kiss you anyway? Ill have to bend down to do so. Why stress myself?" Jasper looked down at his wheelchair and glared at her. Was he just praising her right now? He must have been mad to do so.
This short lady makes his blood boil with anger that he feels like teaching that sexy little rude mouth of hers a lesson. Oh jeez! He just called her mouth sexy. Whats going on?
They were about to start another war of shouting and taunting each other when Tia whined cutely. She seemed to have realized that someone stole Sharons attention from her so she protested softly. Sharon glared at Jasper and quickly turned back to the baby.
Ssh honey dont cry. Dont mind daddy. He likes bullying me a lot. Ssh baby dont cry," she said softly trying to pacify the baby.
Jasper looked at her in disbelief and remarked, Me! How did I bully you? Tia does daddy look like someone that can bully anyone?" He made a cute sad face expression. Sharon shook her head at his shamelessness.
The baby started to cry loudly while pouting her lips sadly. She made a hungry expression with her small lips. Sharon turned to look at Jasper, I thought your sister already fed her but now shes hungry again. Wheres her bottle?"
She wont take it. Shes supposed to have breast milk during this time but she wont accept any of the wet nurse I hired for her," Jasper said shaking his head sadly. He watched her kiss Tias forehead lovingly. An idea suddenly clicked in his head.
Why dont you breastfeed her instead?," he said smugly feeling proud of his idea. What!," Sharon almost choked.

Benedict walked into the huge mansion whistling softly. A maid came forward and collected his briefcase while greeting him. He watched the maid go as her mini skirt sway sideways.
Then he shook his head frowning at the fact that he was just looking at a maid lustfully. He walked into the main sitting room and was very relieved to see both parents there.
He didnt even notice the worried looks on their face as he rushed forward to complain about what had happened today.
He greeted them and quickly said, Dad Sharon bashed my car. She has destroyed it so badly that Ill have to pay more money to repair it than how much I bought it."
That daughter of mine is really becoming a rogue nowadays. Why is she just causing trouble everywhere?," his father asked frowning slightly. Benedict was very relieved to see his reaction.
Thats not the most important thing right now. I cant find my daughter!," his mother shrieked and Benedict looked at her confused.
Mom what are you talking about?," he asked worriedly. His mother held his hands and said, Ever since Sheila left this morning, she hasnt returned or called. I tried calling but its not going through."
Did she tell you where she was going?," Ben asked hugging his mother. She shook her head to indicate NO. Ill go find her right away mom. Please stop crying," he said and kissed her forehead.
Then he walked out thinking, Theres only one place Sheila can be now and its Aiden place.
