CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

Ariel's POV

"Jason you can open your eyes now." I said after ensuring that we were miles away from those men, Jason complied and opened his eyes calmly like nothing of such happened.

With one heart I was relieved that me didn't have a scare, but the other one was worried, other children of his age would have burst out crying in that situation, but Jason was calm throughout, should i be proud or worried.

I carried Jason out of the car with one hand and his bag and lunch box in the other using my butt to slam the door shut.

"Ma'am, you're late." A Missus at the door said with a judging look, I knew that face, it is the face I get each time I go out with Jason, it read 'She is probably some gold digging slut that got knocked up was left with a child.'

"I'm sorry, we got caught up in a little accident on our way here." I ignored the look cause I know reacting would just make things worst, besides now that I am pursuing a career in the show biz, i can't afford getting into any scandals.

"You shouldn't drive recklessly when you're with a child." The woman scolded me which caught me by surprise, "Even if I drive on top of roofs, it's none of your business, not your car, not your money and not your child." I said before placing Jason on the ground not minding the woman anymore.

"Okay Jason, mommy would be going now, try and have fun." I urged him rubbing his hair with worry in my eyes, I am really hoping he won't be secluded in class by his peers, he nodded in response and turned to leave, using his two hands to drag his lunch box, the sight made me giggle, due to how cute he looked, i even brought out my phone to take a picture.

As I turned around to leave, I heard the self righteous woman whisper something that finally made me snap.

"What did you say?" I asked giving her a chance to deny her words, as my eyes blazed with fire and my fists itched for blood.

"I said that I hope your son doesn't end up being a delinquent." She repeated clearly not getting the hint of my anger.

Not giving her a chance to be smug about her comment, I launched at her and pinned her to the ground, i threw my fist at her determined to smash her face to the ground and scatter that uncouth mouth of her's.

"You seem very feeble yesterday." I heard a familiar voice that made me pause my movements, turning around slowly, I was surprised to see Vincent behind me, What the hell was he doing here?

Since he was here I couldn't go on with my original plan, I just punched the ground causing a dent to appear, and making my hands bleed.

Dragging the woman up by her collar I whispered into her ear, "Never, never say anything bad about my boy again, or I'll make sure you will never be able to use your mouth again, understood?" I stood up and dusted my creased dress with my murderous aura finally dispersing.

"Are you done?" Vincent asked me with an obvious displeased look in his face, I wasn't even bothered about that, my main thought is why was he here?

"I planned on coming to the company later today to finalise the contract, there is no need to tail me." I bowed down slightly making sure to say my words respectfully.

"Hah! Who told you I'm here for you?! Make sure next time you have an episode, you ensure there is no paparazzi or any child near you." He warned and with that he walked off, as he passed by me, it was then I noticed a little girl with pigtails in his arms, he had a child? Even though I knew nothing was ever going to happen between Vincent and myself, why did it sting seeing that child in his arms, scratch that, am i going to make another young child completely fatherless? and who is her mother? All this questions ran through my head that I didn't even notice that Vincent had gone and come back.

The woman from earlier didn't even dare say a word as she just crouched in the corner, looking traumatized.

"Follow me." Vincent's order snapped me out of my thoughts.

"Why?" I asked wondering what he meant by that, but I got no response as he just entered into the car and zoomed.

Muttering curses underneath my breath, I got into my own car and chased after him, what a bitchy attitude.
