"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."
The next day, Sharon woke up, and slowly adjusted her gaze to the light in the room. She spun to her right, and back to her left, but she did not find John in the room, so she assumed he didn't spend the night in his room.Last night, Ann directed her to his room to pass the night there. Sharon thought she had to sleep with john the whole night. But to her suprise, she spent the whole night alone in his room. John never showed up until she drifted off to sleep.Sharon heaved a sigh, slowly step down from the bed, and made her way into the washroom. Ann had helped her out yesterday, she knows her way round the house, to his washroom and wordrobe, where her clothes and bags was kept.John bought her outfits from one of the biggest mall in the city and he made sure she had enough of everything she needed.She stride into the washroom, pack her hair into a messy bun, strip off her clothes, before putting on the shower.She relaxed and allowed the warm water to cascade down her body, enjoyi
Jessie is skeptical about marrying David, due to the rank in status.

Sharon stood by the road side waiting to hail a cab. She felt depressed and lonely. After hidden it from her for the past seventeen year's and today she had to find out like this.It was hard to believe she has been an illegitimate daughter for the past seventeen years, she has lived with them, not knowing the truth. But how they had maltreated her was enough reason for her to believe, she is an illegitimate daughter.The love they showed her, can't be compared to that of Jessie. Jessie is an angel to them, their favourite. She has always been treated with so much love and attention. But for Sharon the story has been different, she doesn't even have the right to feel bad, she can't even blame anyone for what has been happening to her.'I always did as instructed, i even sacrifice my happiness for them to be happy, but that wasn't enough. What else could i have done to be loved?' Sharon thought inwardly.She forced herself to pushed the thought aside. She hailed a cab to a dessert shop
John watch her in amazement, his attention wasn't with the audience, but with the tiny seventeen year's old figure in front of him, standing confidently facing the audience. Ever since he met her, she has done nothing than to protect his image, and slowly, gradually, he is falling in love with her.Something he had never thought would ever happen, an unexpected love he had never imagined with a seventeen year's old girl. He never thought he would find love, not after being ugly, he had always thought he will remain single because of his appearance. But unbeknownst to the public there is something he is hiding.Everything was supposed to be an arranged marriage with her family, but slowly thing's are changing between the both of them, which wasn't as planned.At that moment he felt they were the only ones standing there, everyone is invisible. He look at the warmth in her heart, and how boldly she stood up to defend him.No one has ever stood up for him, not even his brother, it has alw
John held Sharon's hand, and led her to his car, without taking a glance at the child's mother. The apology was enough, there was no point wasting his precious time at the dessert shop, when he had other imperative work that needed his attention.He followed Sharon because of how he saw her leaving her house, and now that she's cheered up, he's leaving.He acted like a gentleman, and opened the door for her to get into the car.Vincent had told him this was also one of the attributes Sharon likes in a man, and for him to win her heart, he needed to act like one.John had no problem with doing such things to please her, he is willing to make her his wife, for that reason, he has no problem doing all that. But will Sharon accept him if she finds out he's not the good man she has always dreamt to have? The rumor of him being cruel turns out to be true, will she be willing to stay with him?Sharon was overwhelmed with happiness, seeing him open the car door for her. "Thank you." She mumble
John is seated in his office, when his assistant Vincent strode into his office after knocking. He bowed his head as always as a sign of respect."Boss we have the boy held hostage, and Mr Warren called, he will be here any moment from now," He informed him.John halt from entering data's on his laptop and lift his head up to look at Vincent."Call them to question him, and if he doesn't speak up, they should inflict pain on him until he speaks." John ordered, and glued his eyes back to his laptop."Yes boss." Vincent responded, and then a knock was heard on the door, which got their attention.Vincent strides to the door and opened it. He came into view with Sharon's father, Mr warren."God day, Please come in." Vincent greeted, making way for him to walk into the office.Mr warren strides further into the office, while Vincent excuse himself, giving them some privacy.Mr warren is a bit tense, Vincent had passed his message to him, and now he's scared to make himself comfortable, jus
John couldn't hid how happy he was, as Vincent drive to Sharon's school. Finally, he will get to see her, after waiting for that long, he will set his eyes on her today, he will spend time with her, he thought.Sharon had insisted she come home herself, but John declined saying he wouldn't want her to stress herself, which wasn't the main reason for his decline.He had many foes, and he's worried she might fall a victim, especially since shedrack knows her name.The drive came to an end. Vincent was about stepping out the car to do his usual job, but John stopped him."You don't have to, I will call her to come over." He said, and pulled out his phone to dial Sharon's contact.After multiple rings, Sharon didn't pick up, and it got John tense. He tried again, and Sharon finally picked up."Where the hell did you keep your phone?" He spat at her, making Sharon shuddered.And at that moment he quickly regretted what he just did. Why did he have to yell at her? Was it because he misses he
They arrived at the Gu family house, and, Sharons heart race rapidly. She has never been this nervous, just meeting someone for the first time.John who was beside her, notice she still wasn't herself, he place his hands in hers, bringing her attention to him.He smiled at her when their gaze met, reassuring her that everything is fine, she don't have to be nervous, and somehow she found comfort.Sharon smile back at him, shook her head, and exhaled deeply to calm herself down. She's not getting killed, theres no reason to be scared, She thought."Are you ready wifey?" John asked, and her eyes snap wide open, hearing the word wifey at the end.'Did he just call me his wife? Does he really like me? But this is just a business marriage, how sure are my that I'm not going to get chased out in the Future' Sharon thought."I'm ready." She replied in a calm tone, and relaxed. John held her hands closely, and so they March into the building. Immediately they strode Inside, Sharon was marvel b
