She approached me on purpose

Jasper walked out of his bedroom to the hall and his phone which was on the table vibrated. He opened the message and frowned. It was a picture of Inayah with Lilian seated in the café. From the picture, they looked quite close. They were gazing at each other warmly.

Jasper's hand quivered and he heard the sound of the door opening. He looked up and saw Butler James who had a similar worried expression on his face.

''Young master, you need to see this…'' Butler James paused when Jasper showed him the pictures in his phone. His secretary had already sent it to him.

''Since when were they this close to each other?'' Jasper asked.

''I will investigate this right away''

''No, don't. I will find out myself'' Jasper stopped Butler James.

''Then, excuse me'' Butler James looked at Jasper and sighed before leaving.

Jasper looked at the picture again and muttered, ''is this a coincidence or are you doing this on purpose, Inayah? Did you approach me on purpose?''

…..

An hour later, Lilian pulled over in front of Inayah's house and turned to face her.

''I had a lot of fun tonight, Nayah''

''I had fun to, big sister. I will inform my friends and then we will make preparations for the visit this weekend''

''Mm, go in and rest'' Lilian tussled Inayah's hair gently.

''Bye, big sister'' Inayah smiled and got out of the car. She waved at Lilian and waited until she had driven away before she turned. That was when she saw a familiar bodyguard in front of her apartment.

''Why are you here?'' Inayah asked the bodyguard.

''The big boss forbids you from entering inside the house'' the man at the door said coldly.

''What do you mean by that? Why would he suddenly do that?'' Inayah had a bad premonition.

''He said you're not allowed to go inside the house''

''What? Why? Did I do something wrong?'' Inayah looked at the mansion and decided to approach him head-on. She was really confused about his sudden behaviour.

Inayah rang the doorbell for a good amount of time and no one came to open for her. She sighed and looked into the pinhole and said.

''Hi, Mr. Miles. There is someone at my house and he said you asked him to forbid me from entering my house. What is going on? Please. Did I do something wrong? Answer me please. The wind is blowing and I'm feeling cold. I need to go inside before I catch a cold''

Inayah's voice faded off as wind blew towards her. She touched her shoulders and muttered, ''I feel so cold already''

As luck would have it, it started raining. Inayah leaned against the door to prevent the rain from hitting her.

Jasper stood at the glass window watching from his tablet, how Inayah was leaning against the door.

''Young master, all this might be a coincidence. The young miss looks like she is sick already. With what has happened, if she stays out too long; she might really catch cold''

Butler James couldn't bear to watch anymore. Inayah was now all curled up outside, shivering and sneezing from the cold.

''She approached me on purpose. Same way she did to Noah and now Lilian. She is getting closer to all the people who are close to me''

''How sure are you? that girl looks too innocent to be the cunning type''

'I'm sure of it. This time around I'm going to get rid of her'' Jasper said indifferently.

Inayah sneezed for the nth time and shook her head. ''What did I do again? This man is so heartless. What if I fall sick at this rate?'' Inayah pressed on the doorbell again and spoke. ''Please Mr. Miles, whatever it is; can't you let us talk about it? I easily fall sick on rainy days. If you don't open the door, I'm really going to get angry at you. Why are you doing this to me? Okay, whatever it is, I am sorry. Okay? Just let me come in, I'm feeling cold and the rain won't stop anytime soon. I won't forgive you for this''

She gave up and sat down in the rain.

Next morning.

Butler James opened the door first and stepped aside for Jasper to go out of the house. the moment he did, the unconscious body of Inayah fell right in front of him.

For a moment, Jasper looked shocked as he bent down immediately to hold up her body.

''Young master, the young miss's body is hot. She has a fever'' Butler James said to Jasper.

''Send her to the hospital and call her family'' Jasper said and left her in Butler James' hands and stood up. He walked to his car and drove away.

....

Two Days Later.

First Hospital.

Private Ward.

Inayah regained consciousness and opened her eyes. She saw her aunt, Clara and Bertha in the ward.

''Aunt'' Inayah called out softly and the three rushed over.

''Ayah, you're awake?'' Miss Gladys hugged her tearfully.

''Seriously Ayah, you're going to be the death of me?'' Clara said and also hugged her.

''Why didn't you call any of us when you couldn't find your keys?'' Bertha asked worried as she held Inayah's hand.

Inayah tried to sit up and Miss Gladys helped her.

''Yes. The Butler called me and said he found you laying in front of your door unconscious and brought you here''

Inayah frowned and muttered, ''is that what he said?''

''Yes. We were all worried. Sandra came here but you were asleep. She said she would come again. how do you feel?'' Bertha asked.

''How long have I been asleep?''

''Two​ days'' Miss Gladys answered.

''What? I slept for two whole days?'' Inayah continued to frown.

''Yes''

Dr. Nick opened the door and walked in with a nurse, ''I see you are awake'' he said to Inayah.

''It's you, Dr. Nick'' Inayah didn't look too pleased to see him.

''You don't look too happy to see me or what?'' he walked closer, ''let me check your temperature''

''Doctor, how is my niece doing?''

''She is fine now'' Nick said and leaned closer to Inayah and asked, ''what happened to you, kiddo?''

''Why don't you ask you high and mighty demon king of a friend; also, help me deliver this message. I will never forgive him for what he did'' Inayah said through gritted teeth since she didn't want anyone else to hear it.

''How do you feel, Ayah? If you're still not fine, just tell the doctor'' Clara said to Inayah.

''I'm fine and don't being a worry cat'' Inayah's eyes squirmed and she suddenly remembered something. ''Hey, Clara. What is today's date?''

''Saturday. Why?'' Clara asked back.

''Yes, Ayah. Why are you asking about today's date?'' Miss Gladys added.

''Saturday? Where is my phone? I need to make a call'' Inayah asked as she looked around.

''Who are you going to call?'' Nick asked.

''Girls, you remember that pretty sister we met at the mall some time ago?''

''Yes. You were totally smitten by her'' Clara said and chuckled.

''Yes, I met her again yesterday, no, that was on Thursday because today is Saturday. She asked if we could help her visit the orphanage and I agreed. I supposed to tell you guys about it and then this happened''

''That's bad. What do we do now?'' Bertha asked.

''Is she a new friend you girls made?'' Miss Gladys asked them because she was confused and didn't fully understand the situation.
