The look of disappointment on Ariella’s face was evident that it made Jason’s heart feel pain. His mother was infuriating him, and he was trying his best not to react so he wouldn’t startle Ariella.
To make matters worst, Jacinta stepped at that moment. She was still in her beautiful Crystal wedding dress, Ariella couldn’t help but admire Jacinta’s dress. Jacinta was stunning and looked like someone from a prestigious family.
Jacinta’s eyes looked puffy like someone who has been crying for a long time.
“Babe,” Jacinta called out softly and hugged Jason. Jason sighed in frustration and immediately pulled her away from him. He hated being touched by people without permission.
“I love you Jason, please,” Jacinta uttered before bursting into tears. It was so evident that she was deeply hurt.
“I already found my mate!” Jason roared and everyone present in the room, including Ariella, stiffened. He hissed loudly, opened the hospital room door and stood close to the door, gesturing for Jacinta to leave before he looses his cool.
Jacinta, who was sobbing softly, left with her face down in shame. Jason embarrassed and denied her in the presence of a total stranger. That wasn’t fair, she also had feelings.
“Jason, you’ll regret this, I promise,” Isabella, Jason’s mother, declared and stormed out angrily following Jacinta.
********
“Where is he going?” Jacinta asked with pain and jealousy in her eyes. People around her gasped in surprise when Jason announced that the human lady was his mate. No! That was crazy, she couldn’t be his mate. Only her Jacinta had the right to be his mate.
“Baby, are you okay?” Marcus Jacinta’s father rushed over to his daughter and held her shoulder gently.
“Calm down, okay?”
“Dad? He is going to come back, right? I didn’t hear well, right? That lady is not his mate, right?” Jacinta bombarded her father with questions, and he could only respond by staring at her with sadness written all over his face.
Susan stood a bit afar from where her daughter stood. She didn’t even know how to approach and comfort her only child. Jason hurt her daughter big time and this time around, she wasn’t just going to make threats, she was going to act.
Jason embarrassed her entire family. Susan became more ashamed of herself when she looked around and saw that most of the guests had already gone, while the few that remained were staring at her and her daughter while whispering things among themselves.
All her friends from the social circle were going to make a mockery of her. Her family was now going to be a topic for discussion in their kingdom.
Susan looked at her daughter’s red eyes and pain hit her chest. How would she even approach her daughter after failing to do what she promised her?
Her dear daughter has been true a lot in the hands of Jason, and she’ll do everything to make Jason beg in pain.
Jacinta sat on the ground and continued crying,
“Sweetie, are you okay?” Isabella, who had been silent all this while, rushed over to where Jacinta sat and asked lovingly.
“How can I be okay? I am not okay!” Jacinta yelled at Isabella and instead of getting mad at her, Isabella understood Jacinta was yelling because she was seriously heartbroken.
“I’ll deal with that boy!” Isabella exclaimed before grabbing her bag and leaving. Jacinta tried standing up to follow Isabella, but her father held her back.
Susan approached Jacinta and Jacinta looked at her with eyes full of hope. Why was she even crying when her mother was here? Her mother was a master planner, and she was sure that she had everything figured out.
“I am sorry, sweetheart,” Susan simply apologized to her daughter before embracing her in a hug.
No! What was her mother even saying? She didn’t want an apology from her mother, she just needed her mother to make Jason her man.
What was that look on her mother’s face? Was that an expression of defeat? No! She won’t accept it.
“You’ll make Jason mine, right?” Jacinta broke out from the hug and asked her mother. Susan sighed in frustration and nodded without saying a word.
Susan helped her daughter into their car and they drove home. While they were on their way home, Jacinta kept looking out the window, wondering what Jason was doing at the moment.
Susan kept staring at her daughter without uttering a word. Her daughter needed a lot of space to heal from this terrible occurrence.
As they drove home, they approached the hospital that belonged to Jason’s family and Jacinta suddenly yelled,
“Stop me here!”
“You can’t go there, Jacinta, please,” Marcus tried to dissuade his daughter, but she was having none of it. Marcus ordered their driver to stop the car, and he did. Jacinta immediately opened the door of the car and ran into the hospital like someone who was crazy.
Susan was about to follow her daughter when her husband stopped her,
“Please don’t follow her, let them sort out themselves. Going in there will make us look desperate,” Marcus advised , embittered by the whole happenings.
He wasn’t going to look like a beggar before Isabella’s family. He was a prestigious man and not a pauper, so he didn’t want him and his family to be treated less.
Susan thought of her husband’s words and yes, what he just said made perfect sense. Going in there was going to give Jason the impression that they were desperate to marry their daughter into his family. She needed to protect her image and that of her family, so her husband was totally right.
Jacinta walked hastily into the hospital, she went to the reception and asked the receptionist the room Alpha Jason booked, and they told her. They knew who she was, so they hid no vital information from her.
Jacinta couldn’t wait to see her Jason, she wanted Jason to assure her that he was only pranking her and didn’t mean what he said.
Jacinta got to the room and heard voices that were familiar to her, it seemed like Isabella and her son were having a heated conversation, but that wasn’t her problem right now. All she needed was to see Jason.
Jacinta opened the door and all that were in the room attention became fixed on her. She saw the lady Jason claimed to be his mate and her friend eating. Damn! They were eating with plates and cutlery that only people of high status could use.
Jacinta looked at Jason’s acclaimed mate, though the lady hadn’t yet thoroughly cleaned up, yet she was far more beautiful than she was, from her hair to her eyes to her nose to her lips, she was perfect.
Jacinta felt a surge of Jealousy within her,
“Babe,”. She hugged Jason, so Ariella would know that he was hers, but Jason pulled her away from his body.
“I love you please, Jason,” Jacinta pleaded, she couldn’t live without him. She didn’t want to lose him.
But Jason told her that he already found his mate, and then he opened the door of the room and gestured to her to get out. It was the most humiliating thing Jason had done to her.
Jacinta walked out of the room and also out of the hospital. She walked dejectedly to where their car was parked. Then she began to feel dizzy, she struggled and staggered, and then she lost balance and blacked out, but before she could hit the hard floor, someone came and held her.
