Bound to My Billionaire Ex

Chapter 21 Ungrateful Soul

Chapter 21 Ungrateful Soul

Jacquelyn Howardson's heart skipped a beat, and she looked at the man leaning on the sofa. Even with a bandage on his body, he exuded a natural domineering aura and aristocratic temperament. He lounged casually, but there was a graceful and luxurious air about him. If she were twenty years younger, she would be attracted by such a dangerous and gorgeous man, Joy... Jacquelyn subconsciously stood in front of Rejoyla Lynn, blocking Jason Sterling's piercing gaze. Her mind was in buzz and went blank, and Georgina Sterling's words still echoed in her ears.

Jacquelyn was in a state of confusion and didn't know what to do!

Burton Sterling also stared at Jason hesitantly, "Junior?"

Jason didn't care about occasional tentative eyes and was a little annoyed that Jacquelyn blocked his sight. He shifted his eyes and half of his face showed a mocking smile and said, "Rejoyla, I got injured saving you. Is this how you repay me? Don't you even have basic manners? So I saved an ungrateful soul!"

Why didn't you say that your sister was so cruel to disfigure me? You should have taken the pain for your sister！

Of course, Rejoyla couldn't say this in front of everyone.

"What's going on, didn't it mean that Georgina hurt you? How did you save Rejoyla?"

Burton was completely confused, and could it be that Georgina was deeply wronged? But this was said by Jason, and he wouldn't lie!

Jason kept silent. Rejoyla couldn't help but explain, "Georgina originally wanted to burn me, but Mr. Sterling happened to pass by and helped me. But I didn't expect that he was injured!"

The more she said, the more she seemed to be an ungrateful soul. Rejoyla had to add a belated apology under Jason's mocking smile, "I was too scared just now. I couldn't speak when I thought of Georgina throwing rice dumplings at my head. Thank you, Mr. Sterling!"

Hmph, the Sterlings targeted her for no reason at first, and then one of them helped her. Did the Sterlings treat her well or badly? She felt like a bun that anyone could pinch!

Rejoyla's explanation was even more suspicious. Not to mention others, Burton knew his own grandson's personality. He was ruthless and cold-hearted since he was a child. How could he help Rejoyla? He could even kick Georgina out without mercy. How could it be possible for Jason to risk his life to save a burden?

Burton's face was grim, staring at Rejoyla's eyes with a hint of danger. Burton's voice still carried a terrifying deterrent, "It was Georgina’s fault. Jason has always been a kind-hearted child. He can't stand anyone bullying others. Now, you all leave!"

Jason didn't pay much attention to Burton's words. He saw that Rejoyla was about to slip away, and snorted coldly, "Rejoyla, I was injured because of you. You are responsible for taking care of me!"

It was a complete command, and there was no intention to ask for her opinion at all.

Of course, Rejoyla wasn’t willing to do that. She saw Burton's eyes like knives piercing her. If she dared to agree, it was estimated that she would be punished on the spot when she came out of this door!

"Um, I'm going to work tomorrow, so I have no time to take care of Mr. Sterling. There are so many servants in the Sterling family, and they are more professional. They can take care of Mr. Sterling better!"

"Shut up, I have decided. You go to my room and wait!"

Jason didn't give Rejoyla any chance to refuse at all, and gestured to the butler on the side, "Peter Roland, I have something to consult with my grandfather!"

Jacquelyn was the new hostess. Then, Rejoyla, Madam Heidi and Hillary Sterling were politely but forcefully moved out of Burton's room by the butler!

After everyone left, Burton kicked Jason’s calf and asked, "What's the matter, and are you fond of Rejoyla?" Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

Jason leaned to one side to play with his mobile phone and did not respond.

Burton knocked off his mobile phone and said coldly, "Don't think about that thing, and the Sterling family will never tolerate such a disgrace. Do you think your reputation is good enough? So you intend to add an incest accusation to yourself!"

Burton would never allow his grandson to harbour such a thought and be ruined by Rejoyla. His eyes were fierce and sharp, exuding a murderous aura unconsciously.

Jason's eyelids twitched, leaned over and picked up the mobile phone that fell on the plush carpet. The back of his hands floated the cyan veins because of too much energy. When he looked up again, Burton still had a stern face. Jason replied, "Oh". He didn't speak anymore.

Burton was not sure, "What do you mean?"

Jason sat on the sofa. His black eyes coldly cast a sidelong glance at Burton, "I mean, it already happened."

"You..." Burton stammered with breathing a sigh of relief before he said the rest of the words, "You're looking for a beating!"

Burton was quite satisfied with Jacquelyn who was knowledgeable, tactful and kept her skin healthy and beautiful. She was in her forties and others might think that she was in her thirties when Burton went out with her without shame. At his age, he didn't like younger women who needed to be coaxed and taught. He also didn't have this energy and was unwilling to waste time, so he thought of finding someone right and suitable who could accompany him. The woman should not be squeamish, virgin or not make trouble. As for vanity, it was completely no problem. Everyone knew clearly that she was willing to marry the old man because of his wealth. Each of them took what they needed. As long as Jacquelyn can satisfy him, he didn't mind giving her money. But if her daughter made Jason's reputation flawed, it was useless for Jacquelyn to satisfy him.

Burton made up his mind to make Rejoyla disappear. But Jason's next sentence made him choke, "Rejoyla was my...Um, I think she was probably my ex-ex-ex-ex-ex-girlfriend."

"Why didn't you say it earlier?" If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have married Jacquelyn at all. But it didn't matter if she was just an ex-girlfriend, as long as Rejoyla would not pester Jason by taking this opportunity.

As soon as Burton thought about this situation, his lovely grandson gave him a shock, "How do I know? You change your wives so fast, just like you change clothes. I just remembered her when I saw Rejoyla on the wedding day. Hmph, she is the second woman who dared to dump me. I recognized her at a glance. Grandpa, don't worry about me. Since Rejoyla was by my side, I must teach her a lesson!"

"Did she dump you?" Burton couldn't believe it. His hand holding the teacup shook.

"Otherwise, would I remember my ex-girlfriends? Who can remember his many ex-girlfriends?" Jason's face turned to rage, and he was angry with Burton's various questions. Why did he ask so carefully, and would he expect to watch a good show?

Rejoyla once had a history with him. This matter couldn't be hidden at all. When Rejoyla and he were together, they were quite high-profile. Especially Rejoyla was occasionally neurotic, their quarrel was earth-shattering. Many of his friends around him have been affected. Anyone with an intention could know their story as long as they investigated. Jason did not plan to hide from Burton, lest he found out by himself, which would be more troublesome.

"Bang!" Burton put the blue and white porcelain teacup in his hands heavily on the tea-set table, and hummed angrily, "Well, you must teach Rejoyla a lesson. She should dare to dump my grandson! Grandpa supported you. Don't worry, go for it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he patted Jason’s shoulder. And the atmosphere on his face was grieved, as if the person who was dumped were him.

Jason twitched the corners of his mouth and did not guess Burton's minds. After handling the big boss, the others would have no attention to care.

Hmph! Rejoyla!

Rejoyla didn't know that Jason was so stingy to find her trouble. She was in trouble at the moment. She was pulled by Jacquelyn to the courtyard. Seeing that there was no one around, Jacquelyn's forcibly patted Rejoyla's shoulder and asked, "You confess to me, and what is the matter between you and Jason, what is the relationship between the two of you?"

Jacquelyn has been committed to marrying into a wealthy family for so many years, so she was too familiar with men's thoughts. Jason's attitude towards Rejoyla was not right, and she couldn’t read what kind of mind Jason had for Rejoyla. But it was Rejoyla who suffered losses from the relationship with Jason.

Rejoyla's mouth was dry, and she didn't know how to answer. Her eyes just saw the stains on her shirt, and she hurriedly pulled her collar, "I'll go back and change clothes first!"

"Come back!" Jacquelyn grabbed Rejoyla, "I know you feel aggrieved. But Jason was the only grandson of the Sterling family. You should keep away from him in the future and try not to have contact with him. Joy, I'm all for you, go back and change clothes quickly. And then I'll take you to have a new look. I specially arranged for this man to have a date with you tonight. Don't tell Joana because Burton only introduced one person. You first go to see whether he is desirable or not. If you like him, we quickly arrange this marriage. When you get married, I will rest assured!"

Rejoyla frowned, "I'm not going. I said I won't go on a blind date. You let Joana go, and she dreams of finding a prince charming -- ah, it’s painful. Don't hit me!"

Jacquelyn hit Rejoyla's shoulder fiercely. Regretting that Rejoyla's offspring did not live up to her expectations, she pointed to Rejoyla's forehead, "How can I have a daughter like you, and when do you the et hang of it? It’s no wonder that you have been graduated for three years. How many companies have you changed? You only earned such a small salary per month? You haven’t gotten promoted! You know how many good words I said tonight to gain the chance, and he is the grandson of Burton’s old family friend. His family power is similar to that of the Sterling family. According to Burton’s words, he is smart since he was a child and looks handsome. Where do you go to find such a man? People such as Hillary Sterling may not have the chance!"

"Since he is so good, why didn't Burton introduce him to his granddaughter? But he introduced to me, and there must be a problem!" Rejoyla was not moved at all by Jacquelyn's description but was even more uneasy.

Jacquelyn choked. When she thought that she would have a rich son-in-law, she slightly calmed down. She felt that Rejoyla's words were indeed reasonable instead. Jacquelyn was still reluctant, "You go to the dating if you want to know. If he is really unsuitable, you could just cancel the blind date. It is just a blind date and I do not let you get married immediately!"

"I..."

"You won't really love Jason. You can’t choose him!"

"What nonsense you said, and how can I love Jason? I'm his aunt now!"

Rejoyla still wanted to object, but Jacquelyn's one statement made her give in, "You have to prove that you didn't love Jason, or you have to go on a blind date with me!"

All right, it was good to have a blind date. She maybe meets a good boyfriend. Since she intended to forget Jason, she should also take a step. Start with this blind date. But, "Mom, it's really not good to hide Joana. This thing is not a secret. The rest of the Sterling family may know. If Joana knows the thing from them, it would be not good that she had a problem. You had better explain to her!"

"Explain what? I have raised her for so many years, and I have been benevolent to her. Does she dare to complain about me?" Jacquelyn pushed Rejoyla Lynn patiently, "Okay, you don't care. Change your clothes quickly."
