Chapter 3 - I'll keep her

Once he got home Jason handed the girl over to his nanny Jo amidst speculation and whispers from the house workers when he called them all over.

" Clean her and dress her up and get her ready for dinner. Please treat her properly as the Yong miss am I clear?" "Yes young master" they responded. Nanny Jo then held her hands and led her away while she eyed her surroundings suspiciously. Jason then turned to his assistant. "I need you to find out where she comes from. Get someone here to check her thumbprint and I want the best psychiatrists to check on her, contact them now." After ordering this he walked away towards his study Despite having a lot of questions assistant Kwan decided to keep mum and follow orders. Only Jason Wu knew why he actually brought her home. Jason was a man who had no lack of women who were ready to be his at the drop of a hat, but at this very moment, he was considering getting married to a crazy person. Why? He had no interest in getting married at all. He was only 29 and yet his grandfather was acting as if he would turn impotent if he didn't get married before winter.Since his grandfather wanted him to get married so badly he would. He was a rich man after all, it would be no trouble taking care of this girl no matter how crazy he was. Besides he'd also be doing a good deed getting someone off the streets not to mention that after seeing her, there was this innate need to protect her. He wasn't interested in her as a woman, far from it, he had decided to keep her like his child. He'd be killing so many birds with one stone. Jason's phone rang then and he answered it only to hear the voice of his longtime friend Marcus Hue. Marcus was also a Single rich and handsome man, his family owned an international pharmaceuticals and medical equipments Corporation. The two men were quite alike as they were both orphaned early on in life and raised by their grandparents. In fact their parents died in the same private cruise ship bombing. They were more like brothers, but if there was a difference it was that while Jason couldn't stand women, Marcus could not get enough of them.

" Hello bro, today's Thursday, we'll be expecting you at The Vaz. Same time"

"Fine I'll be there" he answered nonchalantly hanging up.

Jason then turned his attention to the work he couldn't focus on earlier in the day and had brought home.

Two hours later he went out to get himself a cup of coffee since he didn't allow anyone apart from Nanny Jo into his study and she was probably busy with the girl. When he was done making the coffee he was returning to his study room but paused at the bottom of the staircase seeing a girl standing at the top holding Nany Jo's hand and swinging it with vigour. She was a beauty without a doubt. She had a small cute face and still the brightest of eyes. And her smile was fresh, like the first spring day. It was a pity though that she incredibly scrawny. It made Jason feel guilty for not finding her earlier, thinking how she probably had to go hungry all the time living on the streets. He waited as they descended the stairs and called out to her .

"Girl, what's your name?" She stared at him smiling then reached for his hair, brushing it and running her hands through it. He wanted to keep her hands away but he felt he might affect her negatively so he allowed her to do as she pleased. She run her hands through his hair then over his face the held his ear and said "pretty"in a barely audible voice. "What did you say?" He asked. She didn't answer but released his ears. He held her hands to his ears again and she whispered "pretty".
