CH 7: No One Could Touch My Woman

Jason’s POV

That very night, I headed straight to the police station to see that bastard’s face who had dared to harass Lizzy. No one could touch my woman!

“Sir, we have arrived at Everbury police station,” Leo said.

“Ok, Leo.”

A few policemen stood in front of the entrance. They welcomed my arrival. Then, they escorted me into the investigation room accompanied by the two policemen who handled Lizzy’s case.

When the door to the investigation room was opened, I saw a young man sitting with his face down looking at his fingers. When he heard the door open and footsteps enter, he looked up and asked, “Who are you? The police have already questioned me. Can I leave now?”

“So, is your name Aaron Conway?”

“Yes. Is there any other problem? Can I leave now?” he asked.

“No, because tonight is going to be a long night for you. And I’ll make sure you don’t get out of this place easily. Give me the file, Leo.”

“What do you mean? I’m not guilty. The woman you met is my lover. It’s natural I want to make love to her. Please let me out of here,” Aaron said.

I sat in front of him while observing his body language and facial expression. He was not an ordinary man. The way he spoke and his facial expressions showed he was a smart man. Unfortunately, he had to deal with the wrong woman.

That night, he kept begging me to release him immediately. He still thought that I was part of the police force. After he stopped talking and sat quietly in his chair, I opened the file I got from Leo.

“Aaron Conway, a manager at Sparkle Company. Hmm, your salary is quite high, but apparently, you are not a gentleman. Police records show that you’ve ever assaulted several women in several cities and spent time in jail. That’s why you move from city to city. Interesting. For tonight’s case, you said that the woman you were in the hotel was your girlfriend, but why did she run away when you were about to touch her? Doesn’t that sound strange?” I asked, while gazing at him.

However, the reaction I got was unexpected. He laughed loudly, as if the question I asked was a silly one. A few minutes later,

He stopped laughing and stared at me. “She’s just a slut who thinks she’s a saint, so she refused to be touched by me. Fuck!”

Suddenly, the answer he gave made my temper rise to the top of my head. I got up from the chair and walked over to him. I grabbed the collar of his t-shirt he was wearing and pulled him firmly towards me. I stared into his eyes like a wolf watching its prey.

“Tell me one more time about that woman. I want to hear it.”

“Let go of your hand! You can’t be rude here,” he said.

“Repeat your words. I want to hear it one more time.”

“Ah. Lizzy is a slut. Is that clear enough?” he replied with a smile.

Hearing him say that Lizzy was a slut for the second time proved he was a jerk. He had an ulterior motive from the start.

Ah, Lizzy, why were you so stupid? How did you get to know and be in a relationship with this jerk?

“Do you want me to do it again?” he asked.

At that moment, I couldn’t hold back my emotions anymore. I drove my fist into his face until his body bounced back and he fell to the floor.

I heard the squeal of pain escaped from his lips along with the red liquid. I smiled happily as I walked closer to him. He was scared and crawled backward, away from me.

“Are you scared? Why are you avoiding me?” I called out as I approached him and pulled his back collar.

“Fuck! You hurt me. Who the hell are you? Weren’t you the one who asked me about that woman? Don’t you all have eyes? Why let him hit me?” Aaron yelled.

There were only me, Leo, and two police officers in the investigation room. Regarding the beating, I had asked the police chief for permission before entering the room and I would take responsibility in case of a beating because I couldn’t stand that bastard.

“He is Jason Oswald, the richest CEO. For this beating incident, we will take responsibility for you. However, you must sign several documents as a condition,” Leo replied.

Then Leo and a policeman came toward us and helped Aaron up. His eyes gazed at me as he wiped the blood that was still oozing out of his lips.

After he sat down in his chair, I hurriedly opened the door to get out of there before I finished him. However, before that, I turned around and returned his sharp gaze. “Never try to approach, touch, hurt, or speak one bad word about Lizzy. If I find out and hear, then don’t blame me if you experience much worse than what you experienced tonight. Keep that in your mind!” And I rushed out of there.

I got into the car and waited for Leo to come out of the police station. While waiting for him, I leaned back against the back of the seat, closing my eyes and trying to rest for a while. It had been exhausting and everything that had happened tonight was beyond my expectations.

I gave Lizzy a chance to explain what happened six years ago, but she didn’t explain it to me. If she had, I wouldn’t have bothered. For six years, this guilty feelings and longing tormented me.

I felt guilty for being in a relationship with her in secret and dragging it out for so long with no clarity on the direction of our relationship. Maybe that’s what made her leave my house besides Mom kicking her out.

She got out of the car as if the love in her heart for me was gone and when I was about to leave the hotel; I saw the woman I loved walking barefoot down the hill. Seeing that made my heart hurt like a hundred thorns had stabbed it.

She was still as stubborn as ever and had a lot of prestige.

I pulled her body into the car because of the queue of cars behind me. At first glance, our bodies were close together as if we were one. The warmth radiating from her body to mine made my heart beat faster.

However, we again sat in silence like two strangers who had just met until finally, when she got off in front of her apartment building, I saw a little girl run up to her and call her ‘Mommy’.

That girl was her child. Is she my daughter with Lizzy? I need to find out about this soon.

Moments later, I saw Leo walking to the car. After he sat in the driver’s seat, I immediately gave him a task.

“Sir, everything is in order. Here are the documents. Tonight he’ll be gone from Everbury forever,” Leo said as he handed me the document.

“Good job, Leo. I have one more task. Find out about Lizzy and the little girl’s past. How long will it take you?” I asked.

“It looks like it will take me a while. How about a month?” he asked.

“Okay. Find out as much detail as possible.”

“Ok, sir. Where do we go now?” he asked as he started the car engine.

“Hotel. I’m so tired.”

At the hotel, my mind couldn’t stop thinking about Lizzy and that girl. If she turned out to be my daughter, I would feel guilty. But Lizzy never told me anything. What exactly happened six years ago after Mom kicked her out? I was hoping Leo can investigate this as soon as possible.

That night, the streets of Everbury were quite busy until we reached the hotel about thirty minutes later. I rushed out of the car and into the elevator to my room on the seventh floor.

Arriving in the room, after taking off my shoes and changing my clothes, I immediately lay down on the bed. This feeling of loneliness and longing were tormenting me.

Lizzy, you are mine forever. Only I can touch you.

Suddenly, this longing awakened a desire in me. I need a touch, a sexual touch.
