The Kidnapped Bride

Jennifer's tone was very much rude. Although, she maintained a smile on her lips at the same time, Javier's lips pulled upward at the thought of her revisiting his family members. 'Looks like she too doesn't like Shirley now...Nice..' 

The fact that she also isn't interested in having a conversation with someone whom he doesn't like is an unspeakable joy in his heart. Even though he tried to not show this, the smirk gained more space on his face. 

Shirly was speechless for a few minutes. She never imagined that the lady, who appeared and stepped inside their villa just minutes ago, suddenly dared to go and speak something that was provoking o her? 

This not only made Shirley's blood boil but Shawn's eyes narrowed too. Despite the statement, he wasn't interested in fighting the household at her arrival. "Ms. Jennifer, I'm sure you will like to see the house once.." 

Jennifer's eyes which were stuck on Shirley's expression shifted to Shawn and slightly nodded lang. "I would love to see your villa. That is made with topnotch quality."

"Thank you for your compliment. We have arranged a guest room for you so that it won't be uncomfortable for you to live here." Shawn said in the most professional way he could have used either. 

Jennifer was fine with what arrangements he did but there but it seems, Javier wasn't alright with them. "No need for that, She can stay with me, in my room itself." 

Not only, but Jennifer as well as his parents too were also taken aback by the bold statement he spoke. Peaking to his face while lifting eyes, she noted the determination in his eyes. I was pretty much sure that he won't back down from what he just spoke. 

As expected, Shaw's shrill was heard, "Are you out of your mind!? She's a lady and needs her space!?!" 

"I'm aware of the same but this is how we lived in the apartment as well. Do not worry, she won't be uncomfortable by this.." as Javier answered back, he put the ball in her field, "Will you be fine with that, Jennifer?"

The tricky question was lingering in her head. Though, she hasn't shared the bed with someone until a few days back. Now that he was higher, she felt that in this vila, no one can be bested...except him. 

Nodding her head, she gave an affirmative answer, "See, she is fine with that so do not make any issue out of it." 

"But you have a Fiance, Javier. Think, how would she feel if she heard that her fiance is sharing the same room with someone else?" This time, Shirley ignited the fire via her words.

Although, the meaning was simple to share the bed the way she presented added more to the context. Her words were indications in the wrong way, which made Jennifer frown, 'As If I'm warming his bed like you?' 

These words slipped inside her brain but she stopped himself from yelling them out. "Mrs. Johnson, you do not have to worry about that. Javier and I are simply friends and I..don't believe in warming someone's bed. That work is for some other labeled ladies, not for someone like me." 

The face of hers was filled with thousands of cuts and a face slap on her face. When Shirley tried to defame her character, in return Jennifer passed her a beneficial answer to make her understand the difference between them. 

Shirley's eyes turned bloodshot. Despite the calmness, she can't believe she heard that someone, like her, is a mere girl with the guts to make her feel ashamed in her own household. 'Looks like, you don't know what kind of lady I am...Jennifer. Trust me, having enmity with me will cost you a lot... Maybe your life..' 

Shawn wasn't happy too with the decision his son took but understanding the stubbornness that he carried with him, he let them talk go, passerby. "Alright. She can...if you both are comfortable with that. Anyways, Ms. Jennifer.." 

Shawn directed the talk on, averting his attention straight away on her, which made her quite alerted.

"Javier would have shown you around but unfortunately, I believe that Javier isn't that free for now. Javier, I have some work... Smiths have contacted so... In my workspace in the next ten minutes." With these words, he left the drawing-room without making any noise. 

Jennifer's eyes glittered when she had those words. It was evident that the Smiths have contacted, but what made her more afraid was the fact that what will happen once they have completed their talks? Will they send her back as usual.

She was interested in that talk and wished to know about what the Smiths are planning. Standing alone won't be beneficial for her in any way either.

Thinking of their talks in her mind, she wanted to revolt. Subconsciously, she wrapped her other hand around Javier's biceps, but she was brought back into reality when Javier spoke, "Jen, are you alright?"

"Hmm? Yeah..yeah. I'm good." keeping an assured smile on her face. She replied back and Javier too didn't say much in response. He brought her to the other first floor to make her reach her room but before that, the man stepped down and walked near them. 

"So..you agreed to your father's request.." There was a man with his loveable aura, a lavish coat, and tie. Probably making his way to another office in the morning. Seeing the similarity between the two brothers, she kind of guessed who this person was. 

"Yes, I had to for a security reason. You know the old man won't have provided me the security at all... " Charles nodded his head and shifted his attention to the lady beside his brother 

"So you use Lucas's bride as I heard? The lady who suddenly disappeared on her own wedding or the runaway bride?"
