Chapter 24. Isla's dilemma ...

"Please Stop crying, baby. Look at me " he said removing her palms from her face. But her head was still down. She refused to look at him.

"Why would you think you are dirty? You are the most pure thing to me. I love you so much. Why would you think that I will leave you just because some bastard touched you against your wish?

"sob.. sob...sob..." Julie was still crying hard.

"Its okay...it's okk . I am here now. I won't ever leave you okay. Now please look into my eye, baby. There is nothing to be getting ashamed of."

Julie finally lifted her eyelids and saw his tear stained face. He was telling her to stop crying but he was himself shedding tears for her. Seeing this she became more emotional and hugged him hard.

" I really missed you." She said.

" I missed you too ,baby." he said hugging her back.

They hugged eachother for awhile. Then Jasper pulled away to look at her to his fill.

He kissed her all over her face. First her forehead, then her cheeks, then her nose which was as red as tomato due to crying, then her chin, and at last her lips.

"Now, listen to me carefully. You would not hide anything from me in future okk.?" he said like a strict parent.

" okay" she said pouting.

" And you would never call yourself dirty again.okay?"

"Okay " she said again.

He kissed her again. But this time the kiss lasted long. His lips were grazing her's. He bit her lower lips gentely. She gasped. And he took this opportunity to push his tongue in her mouth. He was licking her entire mouth and playing games with her tongue.

He finally broke the kiss when he saw she was struggling for air. They were gasping. Jasper touched her forehead with his and said in a raspy voice " let's go to my condo. There we will continue." He said while showing a lusty smile to her.

But then he saw she was little hesitant for taking a step further.

"Do you believe me?" He asked

"Yes ." she said without a second thought.

"Then just follow me. okey?" he said

"okey" she followed him to his place.

Isla and Grace were shopping in a high end mall with various luxurious brands. "Isla you should try wearing these shoes" said Grace.

"Aunt I have many pairs with me that you bought last time. I haven't even wear once many of them."

"But this one is different. it's form the new collection over here." she insisted her and buyed them for her. Isla always had to go through this. Grace would buy so much for her. There were still many things that were not even used by her once but Grace still insisted on buying new once from the so called new collection.

Suddenly, Isla phone started ringing. It was a call from Emily Harris, her cousin. She picked up hurriedly. "Emily, what's up sis." she said

"Sis we are in a big problem." she said while crying.

"What happened?" asked Isla worriedly.

"Sis father had been gambling, you know that right. But this time he lost everything. But he still didn't stop and borrowed money from some big company who provide private loans and gambled the money again. He lost everything sis. And now he ran away from home. The people from the loaning company came and took mom with them. I don't know what to do sis. Please help me I am all alone." Her cousin sister who was just 12years old, said that she was all alone in the house and was crying. Isla started to panic. Grace looked worriedly at her.

"Emily , baby don't cry. Tell me the name of the company. I will go and find aunt." she said while consoling her.

"It is The Lee corporation, sis. Sis please do something. I am scared.sob.....sob....sob..." Emily said while crying on the phone.

Isla was stunned hearing the name of the company. She couldn't believe her ears. Out of all the loaning company he had to take loan from Lee corporation. How will she again ask a favour from them. They were already doing so much for her. How will she pay the money that his uncle took from them and ran away. She herself was left with a very less amount of money now. She spent most of her money in her studies and buying a small apartment for herself.

"How much money did he take from them" Isla asked to Emily.

"About it was about 2,00,000 dollars." said Emily.

Isla gasped. Even her apartment was not half the prize of the total money. She didn't know what to do. She was embarrassed. She was already living off them and now even her uncle took their money and ran away. What would she do?

She was in daze.

"Isla what happened?" asked Grace in a worried tone.

" Aunt, I have to meet grandfather now. I have to tell something very important to him." she said still in daze.

She didn't know what she will say to him. But since this has happened, she cannot run away from the situation. She still had to held her dear little cousin who was all alone in the house and crying for her mother.

Whatever her aunt Hannah did to her, it never affected her relationship with her cousin Emily. Emily always treated her nicely. She even once fought with her mother for treating Isla badly. That day she got a very hard beating from her mother.

Since now her dear cousin was in problem, she would definitely help her.

She came out of her stupor when the driver told them that they have arrived the mansion.

She hurriedly got out of the car and ran towards the entrance. She went to butler Henry and asked him that she wanted to meet Elder Lee.

She knocked the door of the study and went inside. There she saw grandfather Lee was sipping on his tea and reading a document.

"Come in my child. Have a seat." He said closing the documents on his desk.

Isla came and sat down in front of him.

"Grandfather I want to tell you something. It's a request." she started telling him the entire story. By the end of it she had tears of helplessness in her eyes. " Grandfather please help me this once. I will do whatever you say. You see that cousin of mine is just 12 years old and she can't live all on her own. She needs her mother."

"It's okk child. There is nothing to worry. I will release your aunt. give me a minute." said Grandfather Lee.

He then picked up his phone and made a call to William.
