Seven

"Gu san." Sharon said again with a little chuckle, her gaze buried on her palms.

John got amazed on how boldly she called his name, and yet she still look shy. He lean close to her and pulled her into his chest, stroking her hair gently with his right hands, while his other hand wrapped around her tiny self, bringing her close him.

"You should call me your husband from now onwards." He tease, waiting to hear her respond.

Sharon forced herself to look up to his burnt face, their gaze locked together with their breath few inches away, still wrapped in his embrace.

Even though she would want to call him husband just like he has requested, she couldn't because she's not yet to the age, she's yet to be in the position to do that, she's just seventeen and can't refer him as her husband.

"When i turn 18 years old and can get married and register, i will call you husband, I'm not close to the age." Sharon mumbled, hoping not to offend him, unbeknownst to her, he was only trying to tease her, not that he meant it.

She still hasn't come of the age of married, so she can't call him husband, she can only refer him as husband when she turns eighteen years old.

'Father i hope you would like me after this, I'm doing just as you want, i hope you look at me and be proud of me, i hope you can find me worthy enough as your daughter, i hope you find a place in your heart to find me worthy' Sharon thought inwardly.

John gaze at her playing with her index finger. He look at how shy she was, even while she was still in his embrace, she's shy of him.

'I hope she would grow up soon' He thought inwardly.

John slowly lift her face up and trail his finger round the crook of her soft neck.

"Kiss me." He breath out, as he couldn't do anything to her because she still hasn't come of age.

Sharon lean in and to his suprise, she kissed his half burnt face taking him by surprise.

He froze at first, but quickly masked it up, he didn't expect her to do that to him.

He was satisfy with what she just did, he didn't even except her to do just as he had said.

She was trying hard to learn not to be scared of him, as she has promised she will work and overcome her fear.

"How is your fever? Do you still feel any pain? We can go to the hospital if you're still not well."

Sharon shook her head "The drugs Miss Ann gave me worked, we don't need to go to the hospital."

He was still in a conversation with her, when they heard a knock on the door and John permitted the figure to come in.

Ann stride into the room. "Boss i have heated some water up for her, she should freshen up."

John stood up from the bed and helped Sharon get up. But then he realized she won't have any clothes to put on after taking ber bath.

"Quickly go freshened up, i will be right back." He said, and Sharon bobbed her head in response.

He stride out of the room and gave them space they needed to avoid making Sharon uncomfortable.

He pulled out his phone and type in some numbers before putting the phone to his ear.

In one ring, the recipient picked up the call. "Good- goodmorning Boss." He recipient greeted, Fear engulf him.

"Send your attendants over with ladies wear within five minute, don't keep me waiting." His authoritative voice thuddered, and without waiting for the recipient to respond, he hung up.

That was enough word to make the recipient shiver in fear. Being ruthless John will never repeat himself twice to you, it's either you grab his first statement, or pay for the price if he has to repeat himself twice.

The choice is yours, and that's the more reason people fear him, and his disfigured feature.

John returned back to the guessroom, he knock slightly on the door, before striding into the room.

"She's in the washroom." Ann said immediately he stride in.

"Alright, some attendants from Crystal mall Will be here with female clothes, you should help her pick out some outfits." He said, and continued.

"This should be the last time she takes her bath in the guessroom, pack her stuff and take them to my room, from now onwards that's where she would sleep and shower, do i make myself clear?"

Ann nodded her head continuously. "Yes Boss." She responded.

Immediately she closed her mouth, the door bell rang, the attendants were already at the villa.

"Go get the door, i will be in my study if she needs anything." John Said, and turned on his heels.

Ann exited the room and walk to the door. "Goodmorning ma'am." The three attendant chorused.

"Morning, please come in." She responded to their greetings and open the door widely for them to get inside.

Ann scan the beautiful outfits they came along with, it was too much for her to pick out one already, untill her gaze landed on a marching jean and top.

"Let me have this one, i will be right back." Ann collected a blue jean and top, then stride back to the guessroom.

"Sorry for keeping you waiting, i had to pick an outfit for you, put this on."

Sharon took it from her and change into the outfit. Ann helped her brushed her hair and packed it into a ponytail, then applied some powder on her face.

"Let's quickly pick out more outfits for you before you can have your breakfast." Ann said, and lead her to the living room.

Hour's later, John is seated in his study when Vincent stride into the room holding some flies in his hands.

"Good day Boss." He greeted and bowed his head at him. "This is Sharon's profile, the one you requested." He passed it over to him.

John relaxed back on his seat, and collected the documents from Vincent. He opened it up and scan through the information on it.

'She doesn't like people that are bad' he thought to himself, the document glued to his eyes.

"Are you sure this is her profile?" John turn to him.

"Yes, the information on it are all hers. I also made some investigation, Miss Sharon is a warm-hearted and kind-hearted person, and she's also the type that likes good people, she doesn't like bad people around her."

John clench his fist, he knows he doesn't stand a chance with her. He's a ruthless person without emotions, for that reason he can't be with her, and if he wants to have her, he needs to change.

"I'm sorry Boss, i have a suggestion." Vincent said, and john turned to him. "You will have to change for her, she doesn't want to be with a bad person."
