A Heaven-sent Sweet Child Falls Asking for Hugs-Chapter 98: I Don’t Believe a Woman Like You
Vivian Quincy’s mind was clearly a step behind. Seeing Jasper Ford get into the car, she followed suit.
Mrs. King stomped her foot in anger at the side but didn’t chase after them. After all, with Jasper Ford present, she didn’t dare to truly cause a scene.
Vivian Quincy slowly drove the car out of the garage.
Beanie, sitting in the back, looked very anxious and uneasy. He was the last person who should have heard that conversation.
Jasper Ford noticed Beanie’s restlessness and looked down to ask, "What’s wrong? Are you cold?"
Beanie shook his head. His beautiful, big eyes looked toward Vivian Quincy in the front seat, and his little mouth opened. "Do you know that old woman from before?"
Vivian Quincy shook her head. "I don’t." She did, however, know of Jeremy King.
But she was certain she had absolutely no connection to Jeremy King.
’Listening to Mrs. King’s tone just now, she was implying that I had some kind of relationship with Jeremy King six years ago...’
’But Vivian Quincy knew very well that she had only been with one man in her entire life. That man’s build, his scent... they were exceptional. It couldn’t possibly have been a greasy old man like Jeremy King. It was, however, a little like...’
Vivian Quincy secretly glanced at Jasper Ford in the rearview mirror. A moment later, she wanted to slap herself across the face. ’Am I so desperate for a man, or have the recent rumors gotten to my head? How could I even entertain the idea that my sweet son is the biological child of the high-and-mighty President of Imperium Group?’
She took a deep breath and focused on driving.
’My baby’s daddy must be a peerless hero, definitely not a big villain like Jasper Ford!’
She drove very steadily and slowly. It was probably because Beanie was in the car that Vivian Quincy was being so cautious.
The little guy, tired from the long day, must have felt comfortable. Lying in Jasper Ford’s arms, his head tilted to the side and he fell asleep in no time. Jasper held him carefully with an indescribable gentleness.
Vivian Quincy felt relieved, but for some reason, the temperature in the car seemed to be dropping. She turned the heat up a few degrees, but it still felt chilly. Then she realized the cold air was radiating from Jasper Ford.
He was angry.
Since getting into the car, Jasper Ford had been suppressing his rage. He hadn’t said a word, likely out of consideration for Beanie in his arms.
Now that Beanie was asleep, Jasper Ford didn’t intend to pretend anymore. He took out his phone and called Caden Chandler, telling him to deal with Jeremy King. As for himself, after hanging up, he stared at Vivian Quincy. His gaze was utterly terrifying.
The young woman’s hands, gripping the steering wheel, were slick with a fine sweat. She asked nervously, "President Ford, is there something you want to say?"
"Yes," the man replied with a single, flat word. He lifted his head, a wicked smile playing on his lips. "I’m thinking of letting you choose how you want to die."
SCREECH! Vivian Quincy nearly crashed into the car in front of her. She slammed on the brakes, a cold sweat pouring down her face. "S-Sir, what kind of joke is this? What did I do wrong?"
"Just drive for now." Jasper Ford glanced down at the little treasure in his arms, in no hurry to deal with Vivian Quincy.
But his silence only made Vivian Quincy more terrified. She didn’t know how she summoned the courage to drive the car back to the Ford Family estate.
"Come up," the man commanded, then carried Beanie into the house.
’This is clearly a trap,’ Vivian Quincy thought. ’If I follow him now, I might get strangled to death and not even know why.’
Jasper Ford, walking ahead, noticed she wasn’t following. He paused and warned, "You’re dead sooner or later. Right now, my anger isn’t at its peak."
The implication was clear: ’Come here and face your punishment while I’m not in a full-blown rage. Once I am, you won’t even have the luxury of a quick death!’
Vivian Quincy found Jasper Ford terrifying. Squaring her shoulders, she braced herself and followed him.
"Young Master, will you be dining?" the butler stepped forward to ask.
Jasper Ford shot him a displeased glare.
The butler then noticed Beanie was asleep and quickly shut his mouth.
As for Vivian Quincy, who followed behind, her feelings were a complicated mess.
She watched with her own eyes as Jasper Ford laid Beanie on the bed and tucked him in. ’So the great demon has such a gentle side,’ she thought, beginning to believe he might not do anything to her. But who would have known that as soon as Beanie was settled, he would turn and grab her by the throat.
"Cough... President Ford..." Vivian Quincy grunted in pain, clutching at Jasper Ford’s large hands.
The man chuckled softly, leaning close to her ear to whisper, "I warned you not to have contact with other men. Have you forgotten?"
His voice was terrifying.
Vivian Quincy shook her head frantically. "I didn’t have any contact."
"Say that again," the man said, his gaze lowering.
Vivian Quincy said, "I didn’t."
"Ha! ’Didn’t’!" Jasper Ford almost laughed out loud. ’Does Vivian Quincy take me for a fool? It’s laughably easy for me to find out who she’s met. Does she think saying it didn’t happen makes it so? Could a shameless woman like her really restrain herself and do nothing?’
Sorry, but Jasper Ford refused to believe it!
RIP!
A sharp sound, accompanied by the tearing of fabric—Jasper Ford had forcefully ripped Vivian Quincy’s clothes!
Vivian Quincy said in terror, "Wh-what are you doing?"
The man’s hand froze mid-air. A cool smirk touched his lips, and he instead grabbed her chin, speaking down to her in an arrogant tone. "Vivian Quincy, you are my assistant now. Who gave you permission to speak to your boss in that tone?"
"I’m just an assistant!" Vivian Quincy retorted, her cheeks flushing red. "I’m here to work! My duties are just to organize your documents and arrange your schedule. But look what you’re doing to me now! Is this how an assistant is supposed to be treated?"
"Hah." The man gave a cold smile, his icy fingers tracing her cheek.
Vivian Quincy grunted in pain. The corners of her eyes grew redder, and a sheen of tears welled up. Her watery eyes were wide, but she was defiant. No matter how much it hurt, she refused to beg for mercy.
Jasper Ford actually rather liked this defiant stubbornness of hers. However, "You’re so full of backbone. Why is it that when you meet other men, your legs go weak and you can’t even stand up straight?"
"I didn’t," Vivian Quincy denied.
Jasper Ford narrowed his eyes, displeased with her answer. He tightened his grip on Vivian Quincy’s throat. As the pressure increased, she whimpered in pain.
She tried to pry his hand open, but it was no use. The man was domineering and immensely strong. Compounded by the natural difference in strength between a man and a woman, Vivian Quincy was no match for Jasper Ford. After struggling for a while, she was completely exhausted. She said breathlessly, "If you don’t let me go, I’m going to scream for help."
"Go on and try. See if anyone comes to save you," Jasper Ford replied, unafraid.
Vivian Quincy grew angry. "President Ford, don’t you find it shameful to be bullying a defenseless girl in your own home?"
Jasper Ford sneered, "A woman like you? Clean?"
Vivian Quincy’s face turned pale. The scene from that one night flashed through her mind. She bit her lip hard, all the color draining from her face.
Jasper Ford had only said it casually, simply wanting to humiliate her. He hadn’t expected her to react this way. It seemed... he had guessed correctly!
He suddenly felt annoyed and incredibly furious!
He tugged irritably at his collar and growled in a low voice, "Speak."
Vivian Quincy looked at him blankly. ’Speak about what?’
Vivian Quincy stubbornly bit her lip and said nothing. ’Since Jasper Ford is already convinced I’m that kind of promiscuous person, then let him misunderstand.’ She even held onto a sliver of hope that he would let her go because of it.
But, to Vivian Quincy’s surprise, her silence only made Jasper Ford seethe with rage!
