Mated To My Stepbrother-Chapter 51
Jaxon pov
I opened the letter again, and it was child abduction. I searched the letter for any name but the name. I saw that it was too mysterious for me to understand.
I felt I needed to show Aria this letter, but I was also scared. It might just turn the way she thinks around and affect her. I did not want that to happen, so I squeezed the letter and put it back inside my pocket as I acted naturally and walked towards Aria’s room.
I walked quickly to her room as I still contemplated on whether or not I was telling her about this; she needed to find out about it more than anything, but I was scared.
I soon got to the front of the Room, and I stopped, puzzled, unable to point out what exactly to do. I felt so miserable; I couldn’t help but groan internally.
What was I going to do now? I slowly opened the door as I peeped in on Aria, but she was already fast asleep. I smiled, reluctant, as I stood there for a while.
Just then, I heard a voice behind me, making me gasp in fear as I turned around. It was the same man I had claimed was Aria’s father. I felt so scared and shaken, but the first thing I did was adjust the door and close it back. He was not going to enter without my consent to the man. He smiled as he stared at me from head to toe.
After a few seconds of staring at each other, I decided to summon the courage and ask the man who he was. I moved closer to him with my head up high.
"Who are you, and why do you keep staring at me? I saw you standing in front of this door, yet again, here you are again. What exactly do you want?" He chuckled silently and touched my shoulder for a weird reason. I felt irritated and immediately removed his hand as I stepped back, not because I was scared but because I did not want him touching me again.
"I said who are you and what do you want?"I questioned him again, but instead, his smile got wider and wider with each question.
"You don’t know who I am, but I know who you are," he said and then paused. I felt a bit puzzled. How could he know me when I hadn’t even met him in my life, and from the messages, he was in jail all this time? Just as I was about to ask him how he knew me, he said something that surprised me.
"I know everything about you." Jaxon, he muttered, making me step back in shock.
I was so shocked that I feared that I might show out something I was not meant to say or even question why he knew my name, so I immediately covered my mouth, this time guarding the door with all my strength.
I knew that he was Aria’s father; it was just so obvious, and now he knows everything about me, which makes it even more complicated and worse.
Just as I was guarding the door safely, He moved closer to me and whispered in my ear,
"I know everything about you to the extent that I know where my wife and your father are. They’re on vacation, right? And honestly, I don’t think they’ll be coming back anytime soon, so can you let me go in there and see my daughter," he said. I felt my chest heavy as my heart leaped with fear.
He was her father, and he wanted to see her. I decided not to show the scared side of me and stood bravely.
"I don’t think that will be possible. She is in a critical state and is resting, so you should come back another time when she is not getting treatment." I lied to him even though Aria was only sleeping.
He smiled yet again, which was very weird to me, but I wouldn’t fall for any of his words.
"I knew she was not in a critical state because I paid for her hospital bill. Today is the day they are getting the hair cut out, and that is all, so can you let me go in there and see my daughter", he said. I held onto the handle of the door tightly. I wasn’t going to fall for his tricks at all.
Simply saying nothing back to me. I could tell that he was not ready to give up at all, and neither was I all I needed at this moment was someone who would just come and divert everything or make him leave, but nobody was coming.
I stared at the hallway, hoping someone would just walk toward us, but none of that happened. I hope and pray that Aria will not call out my name in any way because that would be when I would have no choice but to let him in.
And from the way she was hiding his identity minutes ago, I could tell that she didn’t plan on meeting her father. If she had any plans of ever meeting him, then she would have at least replied to his messages to her. I needed to protect her, and the only way I could show her I was there for her was if I protected her.
"Stop acting like you are so stubborn, and just let me in. I only want to see her face, and then I will leave". He said to me, but I shrugged, straight forward, bravely muttered.
"I am not letting you in, no matter what". He wasn’t the only one who was going to threaten in this situation.
He began to chuckle, making me scared. Even though I was so good, I was too scared, but due to how he began to talk,
"I could easily push you out of the way." He said to me, I saw Tim walking towards the ward and I smiled widely. Tim was my way out.
