Chapter 210 - Catalytic incident

Jean dozed off as soon as her head hit the soft and smooth cushions of the car. She was pretty exhausted and was also drunk. Scott sighed huskily looking at her red and worn out face. He covered her with blanket before adjusting the cushions supporting her back, so that she will not have any problem while sleeping.

Then he stared at her for good few minutes, before igniting the engine and started to drive faster. He knows very well why she is this worn out and wanted to sleep more, of course it is solely because of him.

They are about to enter the city when cops stopped his car, he was driving beyond the safe limit. Scott shook his head annoyingly and halted the car at side. The usual patrolling and daily security checkups became common these days, with elections around the corner it became even more mandatory.

Current mayor of the city is now having very tough competition because his mother is back in the city. As soon as she got approval from Elder Summers, she decided to continue her father's legacy and take the leading power of the party.

Scott's maternal grandparents are involved in politics to its core, their influence is beyond anyone's imagination and one word from them is enough to change the whole opinion on political parties. As their only daughter, his mother should shoulder the burden of it and continue the legacy. Moreover, from now onwards her children no longer need her assistance to lead their life. She is usually free now, so after pacifying Elder Summers he allowed her to participate in elections.

Scott rolled down his window allowing the police to recognize him. He is frustrated that he has to face this, when his wife is tired and sleeping deeply with no idea of what is happening. He should take her home soon enough and feed her some hangover soup and ginger tea. Her red nose is enough for him to figure it out that she might catch cold soon. This hindrance made Scott so agitated and annoyed.

Cop gulped down his saliva as he sensed the hostility and arrogance Scott emitted slowly, yet it is efficient enough to make other tremble. He decided not to interfere with this living demon, but after seeing a woman curled up in the passenger seat without consciousness he panicked.

His own daughter is one of the victim of **** and harassment from rich and arrogant youngsters like this man. He never wanted any other girl to go through same trauma and suffer like his mentally unstable daughter. But after seeing a girl laying motionlessly his heart almost popped out of his body. He can also see red marks on her collarbone and some bruises on her shoulders, though they are not that intense still they are very visible as Scott removed her blazer after she slept.

Is this man same like other heirs of some rich family, he might look decent and gentleman to outer world, but he can also be the same sly fox in disguise…l.u.s.ting like predators.

Jean shifted slightly as cold air breezed across her already cold face, she squeezed and sniffled her nose and rubbed her tired eyes before dozing back to sleep, she looked so cute and delicate as ever. This made the cop even more determined to save this poor little girl from this sly dog.

Scott looked at her worriedly, cold weather isnt good when she is suffering with migraine, he glared at cop and growled dangerously. "Did you finish gawking," as like always Scott throwed his etiquette and manners out of the window, when he saw his beloved suffering and started acting out of impulse..

Cop stared at the woman till he got better view of her face and instantly recognized her as Jean Grey. Isn't she supposed to be engaged with someone else and what is she doing with other engaged man at this night. Are they cheating their partners behind their backs… these rich people are really something..

Or is he abusing her, otherwise why is he in hurry.

"Scott, I want water." Jean said in her hoarse and cracked yet delicate and melodious voice as she yawned like a child and flipped to other side. She curled up even more and nuzzled her head on the cushion like a little kitten making Scott chuckle, he gazed at her with warmth and utter most affection but his eyes gave the deep end blazing desire for her as he patted her head making Jean hum a little.

He grabbed water bottle and some of her tablets out from his safe keep in car. He shot a dangerous and chilly glare at cop and closed his window, before helping Jean to sit up slowly as if she is delicate and brittle like glass..

He understood that Jean is drunk, he probably went overboard with his thoughts. But it still bothered him why are they together, are they cheating. They both looked like they are deeply in love with each other, but they are already engaged with other person's right.

But he didn't dare to talk anything about it. Scott is son of opposition party, it is better not to interfere and loose his job out for nothing.

But who knew that this small incident would cause a havoc in the city, indirectly this might also act as catalyst in revealing their relationship to outer world.

The next one week, it was smooth and blissful for both of them except for Jean's fever and cold that lasted for at most three days. Jean is now holding the important position and status in company. Almost everyone is respectful and polite with her. Her team started taking care of her to utter most level and didn't let her escape till she completes her meal.

Even her migraine problem is not that intense, though she always use to suffer with nightmares. But now due to her over worn out body, she slept like dead and didn't have a chance to even dream of something. Thanks to Scott for that.

Seline and Raymond never allowed her to over work nor skip the meals. They were her human barriers protecting her from her uncle's tiny schemes. She just had to attend meetings and sign some papers.

For Scott everything is blank and boring without Jean. He missed her every minute and every second of his work life, making him crave for her more and more. He started staring at his watch pleading the time for mercy to flew fast. His desperation to see her always intensified for every passing second. This of course impacted Jean beyond her imagination after they reach their home. She started missing having some private and alone time

It became mandatory for maids to leave the house empty before seven in the evening. They just have to prepare dinner, clean the house and then leave. Jean started waking up too late, she missed all her practice sessions because Scott never allowed her out of his arms let alone out of the bed before eight at the morning. However, she was also dead tired to go and practice in her situation.

He became more clingy and is very reluctant to even waste a single minute of his time with her. He started driving her for work to and fro everyday. She is always surrounded by some or other person's taking care of her, that she didn't get a proper chance to communicate with her mentor.

However, without anyones knowledge, person's following her in shadows increased slowly. They are so professional that no one could identify them as spies…but they didn't do anything that might harm Jean.
