Bound to My Billionaire Ex novel Chapter 21

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?" 

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?" 

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."
