317 The last warning 1 (1/2)
”It was not bad considering…” her words trailed off. She was a bit uneasy to say the word 'gambler' and 'liar' even though those two words represented the family as a whole. She reached for Jason's hand and rubbed it gently.
”I'm okay,” Jason said.
”I am not. Are we right to do this? I mean… is this the right thing? Why didn't we bring others with us?” she asked. Her brows furrowed full with worry. She did not want anything bad to happen. Especially toward Jason and herself.
”Don't worry. Look at the back,” he pointed behind them.
Mika turned around and saw two cars were approaching them. She recognized one of the cars. It was the usual car used by the security for Jason's family. Maybe the one behind belonged to the securities as well.
”Are you ready?” he asked her gently.
”Hmm...”
Jason shut off the engine and went to Mika's side to open the door for her. He then offered his hand and she accepted it.
”Here goes nothing,” Mika murmured slowly. She let him lead the way with the securities following behind. Her heart was pounding hard but she tried not to show it. Showing her weakness would make it easy for others to attack and take advantage of her. And she would not like that.
”Jason? What are you doing here? Why didn't you tell us you're coming?” Aunty Min asked with a huge smile seeing her handsome nephew. But the smile disappeared seeing the woman holding hand with Jason. Her eyes narrowed suspiciously. ”What is she doing here?”
Jason and Mika shared a look before Jason looked back to his aunt. His face was grim.
”Where is Ella?”
”Ella? Do you want to see her? She's in her room,” Aunty Min was happy to see Jason wanted to see her daughter. Was this the chance they all were waiting for? But... why would he bring that woman with him if he wanted to be with her daughter?
She went to Ella's room to call for her. She was so happy, she almost skipped toward the room despite her age. Ella who was happily listening to Korean music.
”Ella, wake up. Jason is here,” she urged her daughter to get to her feet. She immediately headed to the wardrobe to choose the perfect outfit for her daughter. Ella must look beautiful in front of Jason. There should never be any tear or stain on the material. It also must not look old.
”Jason is here?” Ella dropped the phone she was holding excitedly. He was here? It only took him almost a week for him to realize who his real partner was.
She quickly went to the vanity drawer to put on make-up. She wanted to look beautiful in front of him. She even curled her hair while her mother was busy throwing her dresses and blouses on the bed, choosing the perfect outfit for her daughter.
