Chapter 71: 70. I AM HENRY JACKSON'S WOMAN

Prev Chapter Next Chapter

Henry was looking for Bella for a long time but couldn't find her anywhere. He saw Alen sitting with

Sophia. To be precise he saw Alen forcing Sophia to be with him as he held her hand tightly was not

letting her go. Sophia on the other hand was struggling to be free.

Henry smirked and came closer to them and asked her if she had seen Bella anywhere. Seeing her big

boss infront of her she shook Alen's hand hard but still failed to release herself from his grip. Hearing

Bella's name, Alen left her hand but gave her a warning looks that clearly said 'dare you run away.'

He then told Henry about the encounter they had in the balcony and how Lynch had expressed his

desire and feelings for Bella. Eventhough Alen was speaking about Lynch's feelings, Henry could

sense that even Alen has some soft corner for her too.

Well that explains why he gave her a huge sum of money just for a small gathering and also Bella was

taking his name when she was sleeping.

Remembering that his fave became sullen and then he left with big strides after Sophia told him that

Bella had said that she had to use the washroom. Even though he was in a hurry but was stopped by

another handsome man, Ricky A.

Ricky shook his hands with Henry and congratulated Henry for success of his club. Without wasting

any further time, he immediately asked for Bella.

Henry was confused that why was this foreigner asking for Bella. Ricky didn't wanted to explain much

but he simply told that he was here to take Bella with him forever so that they can settle down.

Henry was now in rage. He was angry and fuming. He wanted to find that woman now. He rushed

towards the washroom just to see.....

In the washroom :-

Before Bella could relax herself further, she was pulled into a strong embrace and her lips were sealed

into a strong dominating kiss. Nothing can be more familiar then this embrace and kiss. Bella need not

open her eyes to know who this fragrance belonged to.

The man left her lips only after realizing that she was out of breath. Bella took a deep breath and before

she could think about something she was kissed again. Bella could feel that this kiss was full of

emotions and passion.

The man was reluctant to leave her lips but still he did. Bella carefully looked at the man before her. His

dark prominent circles under his eyes, his unshaven beard, shrunken eyes, rough hair. He seemed to

have reduced drastically.

Bella thought of nothing else but just to run away from that place, even more then before. But before

she could do so her lips were once again covered with another pair of hot lips. Bella could feel the

emotions growing more and more with every kiss.

Suddenly Bella tasted something salty. She opened her eyes to see the man infront of her but she met

with another pair of icy eyes full of love and passion but also full of tears.

"How many times do I have to remind you to close your eyes when I kiss you Lil bunny."

Don't know why but Bella immediately closed her eyes. He was her sunshine. She knew what she felt

for Jason. She knew that she loves him, may be not in the same way as she loved Henry back then but

yes she does.

"I am sorry baby.. I am sorry for everything I said and done. I don't know what came in me that I treated

you so bad. I am sorry... please forgive me. I love you."

Jason said while holding her small face in his palms. He slowly touched her lips with his thumb and

looked deep into her eyes.

"Your lips rejuvenates me and your presence ignites my life. I love you Bella. I can't live without you."

Saying this Jason started kissing her all over her face while still holding her face in his palms. He gave

her yet another passionate kiss.

Bella trusted him. She understands that if she was in place of Jason that day may be even she would

have reacted the same way. But what hurted her most was that he knew her. He always said that he

trusted her then why didn't he believe in her that day. If only he would have said 'Yes I believe you' then

Bella would have fought with everyone to be with him. But this didn't happen.

She also knew now that Henry has given special instructions to destroy Morris Industries. She knew

that Jason was having a tough time because of Henry, frankly speaking because of her. She knew that

Henry won't stop till he brings Morris Industries to bankruptcy.

Jason was a nice man, atleast with her. And now she was with Henry and she knew that he won't let

her free. And this was the only thing she desperately wanted now was to be free.

She knows Henry. She has seen his cruelity. He was capable of destroying all the evidence of

existence of a living person years back then he is capable of doing anything in her eyes now also. He

can destroy Jason and she won't let this happen.

She took a deep breath and looked at Jason and spoke in a firm manner,

"But I don't."

"You.. what??"

"I said I don't love you young master Morris. Now please let me go."

"That's a lie Lil bunny. I know you love me. I won't let you go. Never."

Saying this Jason held her tightly in his embrace. He was holding her so tightly as if his life depends on

her. He thought if he loose his grip then Bella will slip away. Bella knew what Jason was feeling but she

had no choice.

"Please Young master Morris, leave me. I am no longer yours."

"Don't say that Bella... I love..."

Bella raised her hand and asked him to stop.

"But I don't.."

"No...."

She took another deep breath and spoke,

"May you don't. So let me tell you. I AM HENRY JACKSON'S WOMAN now."

"Henry's... no.. why.. you hate him. He hates you. He was the one who put you in the prison.

Why?

Why him??"

Jason asked while holding her shoulders and shaking her hard.

"Because I want power and money. I want everything back what was taken from me. And who could

give me that better then Henry Jackson!"

"No.. ....

Bella... come with me. I can also give you everything that Henry can. And more then that I will give you

love that you deserve Bella."

Bella clenched her hand hard. She held back her emotions which would come out in form tears anytime

now. She knows that whatever Jason is saying is the truth. She believes in him. She believes in his

love but she can't be that selfish to destroy his entire empire for her love.

It's hard work of his family , his, his father's , his grandfather's and many generations before that. She

can't see them getting destroyed by Henry. She knows if something happens to Morris Industries then

Jason has to leave his post of CEO and she knows that he has really worked hard to gain it. All his

hardwork will be destroyed in a minute. He will be broken.

" Really?? "

Bella gave a small laugh.

"Can you really beat Henry Jackson? You know the answer yourself.. No you can't. Nobody can match

him. I want to be with him..."

"I can Bella and I will. Trust me."

Jason said while holding Bella's face once again in his palms and looking at her.

'I believe you, I trust you but I can't do this Jason. You deserve better.' She thought.

But Jason's continuous declaration of his love was causing pressure on her. She was now desperate

and without thinking she spoke out,

"Whom are you kidding President Morris? Don't I know that all your projects have been taken up by

Jackson group under Henry's orders. Don't I know that Morris Industries is on verge of bankruptcy.

Don't I know how you have been struggling to cope up with your losses!"

"How do you know all this?"

Bella immediately became quite and took a step back when she realized that she spoke what was not

needed.

Jason held her tightly,

"Look up Bella. Look into my eyes and say what you just said. Look up..."

Jason was an equally smart man. He understood Bella's intentions. He knew that she was never a gold

digger and surely not a scheming girl. Bella panicked and was scared. She knew that her slip of tongue

has exposed her real intentions to Jason.

She tried to free herself and run away from there but her hand was held tightly by Jason and he took

her into his embrace. He reached out and grabbed her again. He buried his head and eagerly kissed

those lips again. Once he touched those lips, he signed, it felt like a long lost touch. He touched his

forehead with hers and spoke softly,

"Bella I love you. Let's go away from this place. Let's leave now to a place where no one knows us. It's

only you and me.. Bella. For you I am ready to be enemy with this whole damn world. I want you.. we

will be together forever Bella.. forever."

Saying this he started kissing her all over her face. Bella was still struggling to be free from his hold but

she was too weak infront of his strong power. Bella eventually stopped struggling and once again

asked him the same question that she asked him in the booth the other night,

"Will you believe me if I said that I didn't do anything back then and I was wronged by everyone, Henry,

my family, my friends?"

"Truth doesn't matter to me Bella."

Jason was immersed in excitement and he started kissing her again and he failed to notice a sharp fist

hitting him from behind.

“boom!”

“You don’t have to be the enemy of the whole world, your enemy, first will be me!”

A cold voice, accompanied by the sound of fists, sounded abruptly. Jason was caught off guard and

Henry's fists made his nose and mouth bleed. But Jason also didn't hold back. Gaining his senses he

started fighting with Henry will equal strength. Bella was shocked but then started crying and tried her

best to free them both but she couldn't match upto them at all.

This commotion caught attention of many people. Carson and Kevin rushed towards Henry and

stopped him whereas Alen came and held Jason from fighting any further.

Bella was crying. She saw how badly was Jason hurt from Henry's first few punches. She almost forgot

about Carson , she picked up her phone and called 120 for emergency services.

"Hello.. 120.. we need an ambulance and ....."

Before she could finish speaking, the phone in her hand was snatched and within seconds it touched

the floor with a loud bang and broke into pieces.

"Young master Jackson what are you doing!”

Henry’s hand hanging beside him was clenched into a fist,

“What am I doing? You ask me, what am I doing? Bella ... what do you think...?"

The man was so soft, even his voice was so soft that it sounded a little weird, and his black eyes

seemed infinitely dangerous. Bella knew that he was not pointing on himself but was pointing on

something wrong that she has done. Staring at Bella coldly, he continued,

“What have you done Bella?

and What are you planning to do?"

He was getting frustrated.

"Why Bella...? Why were you planning to get elope with Jason?”

Bella face turned white,

“No... I wasn't”

Her staright forward refusal held differ meaning for both these men. Hearing this Jason came closer to

her and held one of her hands tightly. He looked into Bella's eyes and then turned towards Henry,

"Henry, Bella is afraid of you but I’m not! What kind of entanglement you two had before, it was all in

the past.

You don’t like her, you don't love her. What you want is to dominate her and refuse to let go. Don't You

think you are behaving quite selfish!"

When Jason’s words were spoken, the last bit of blood on Bella's face was wiped out. She was staring

at Jason in disbelief.

Henry was going crazy. Jason’s words aggravated the situation, and the already jealous mind of Henry

was about to explode. These words irritated him even more.

Henry raised his head and looked at Bella. She was still looking at Jason. Is it that good-looking? He

couldn't help but compare himself with Jason now.

Was his looks better than his? Henry stared at Bella's red lips, her face was sweaty, and even her

forehead was wet, was the kiss so passionate that she still had its effects on her?

Thinking of this, his mind was going crazy because of jealousy. With poisoned eyes, he stared at Bella,

'Bella you are so good! Even if you want to leave me, don’t even dream about it in this life!' He thought.

He couldn't understand one thing. What was with these men! Bella was no more beautiful as she was

before. Bella was a siren beauty. She was nothing less then the moon goddess herself. Her voice was

like a nightingale. Now she was nothing. For others she was nothing more then an attendant in his

club.

Now when she has lost everything, her name, her beauty, her voice still she was able to attract most

eligible men of the country. They were, including him, ready to risk anything and fight for her.

Jason Morris, the CEO of Morris Industries; Alen James, the CEO of James international; Lynch Flynn,

the president of Lynch foundation; Ricky A, owner of leading adult clubs of the country and abroad;

Carson Yang, owner of biggest hospitals throughout the country and how can he forget the main

person, Henry Jackson, CEO of Jackson empire, one of the richest man in the world. 4th richest and

popular celebrity on Forbes.

Was it just her beauty that attracted them all. They are no more teenagers that they will fall of beautiful

faces. All of them had good number of thier respective female shares till now. Then what was special

about Bella?

All these men were summing up to increase his jealousy towards everyone. And to make the matter

worst was her interaction with Jason. He felt the pull between Jason and Bella. He felt her emotions

when she ask Jason to believe her.

Since he met Bella again after she came out of the prison not even once did she tell him to believe in

her. Nor once did she try to clear her side of story. Nor once did she disagree when he claimed her to

be the reason for Claire's death. Infact when the past was revealed infront of others, for whatever the

reason be, she always declared herself to be the murderer of his woman.

But today was the second time when Henry heard Bella asking Jason to trust her. And today Jason

actually wanted to trust her. Everyone trusted her, Martin, Claire, Sophia, Carson and now Jason. Has

he really done wrong to her ? He thought.

His thoughts were soon interrupted when he saw Jason grabbing Bella's hand and pulling her towards

him.

"I was not able to take you away when I kissed you for the first time but today I must take you with me."

Saying this he stared at Henry fiercely.

“Then you can only try, whoever I don’t want to let go of can not be taken away from me ... Ever.”

Henry stared at Jason’s hand that grabbed Bella only to find it extremely eyesore for him. He suddenly

stride forward and slam his fist drastically on Jason. And then what, they started fighting again.

Carson, Kevin and Alen were trying their best to hold them back but they couldn't. Henry being the host

of the party that was held in his own club was on upper hand. Soon his body guards and bouncers of

the club arrived. Jason's bodyguards arrived too and soon the fight turned out to be a gang fight.

Taking advantage of his bouncers, Henry pulled Bella out of the so called battle field neatly abs bent

over and put her on his shoulders.

"I will leave the rest on you, he said to Ray who was also in middle of the fight."

Seeing Bella being taken away, Jason became anxious and started struggling to get free from Ray's

and other bouncers hold and started shouting loud,

"Get out of my way, you bastards.."

But Jason couldn't get free on time. Bella was stuffed in the car by Henry who was still holding her

tightly in his embrace. He waved at Martin and the latter started driving as fast he can. Jason, who was

now free was not able to chase behind the car.

Bella relaxed a bit but after driving for some what 15 minutes, she realized that they were not heading

towards Jackson Mansion. For some unknown reason she panicked and asked Henry,

"Where are we going?"

“Civil Affairs Bureau!”
