349 The extent of wickedness - Part 4
Thursday continued ….
Just as Anna and Jas settled on the couch, Yan Tan and Alecia arrived.Observing the look on his sister's face, Jas realised that she needed to speak to the man accompanying Alecia.Jas took her hand and led her out to the outside area.
Once the door was closed, Yao Tan turned to Anna and spoke "I do not know how you did it, but you have her willing to talk about what happened.Anyone else who has spoken to her about it has been shut down."
"I do not know if it was , or that she is ready to talk about it."
"Who is that with her?"
"That is my 22 year-old brother.I have already warned him that Yi would lynch him if he hurt her, let alone , you and Amanda.He is scared what we will do."
"Thank you.At least I do not have to worry.Yi told I could use his study while she is speaking to the police.I am grateful you will be there for her."
"Not a problem.Just let Butler Ge know if you need anything."
They sat down waiting for the police.
anwhile, out on the patio.
Jas had escorted Alecia out there so his sister could speak to her father.Once they had moved from direct sight, they sat down.Alecia was rubbing her fingers in Jas' palm.
Quietly, and directly looking at Alecia Jas asked "Are you sure you want to do this?"
"Jas as we talked about last night, I need to.I am not going to be able to move forward with my life unless I deal with this.It is going to be hard, but I have to do it."
After lifting her hand and placing a brief kiss on the palm Jas asked "Are you absolutely certain?"
"Yes.Now, you promised to tell last night what you are studying?"
"Nursing."
"You are going to be a nurse.I thought won were nurses."
"Alecia, that is so much of a stereotype.It would be like telling my sister if she says she works in the legal industry, that being a legal secretary must be an interesting job."
"My step-mother would agree with you.Are you not going to ask about ?"
"My sister told you are 16 years old."
"But …"
"Alecia, in warning on the way over here about not stepping over the boundaries she told about your age."
At this ti Alecia started to move close to him.Despite what he felt, Jas knew that he needed to set so boundaries otherwise this could get out of control quickly.If she had been eighteen, he would not have worried about pursuing a relationship with her.
Alecia was intriguing, captivating, and full of life, but her eyes showed so much pain.He knew that he had to be strong and make it clear that he was here to help her.The future, in his mind could take care of itself.
Feeling Jas start to tense up, Alecia put her free hand on Jas' chest and in as seductive of a voice as she could manage she said "Do not tell I am too young for you.There is only six years between you and , and anyway I turn seventeen on Saturday.There is more of an age gap between my father and step-mother."
"Alecia …"
"Jas you have so idea of what happened six months ago.I need your unconditional support as you are the only person who has not tried to smother with protection.Just be here for , please.Whatever else happens will happen."
Yao Tan looked up and was concerned that he could not see Alecia.He opened the Patio door, and as they heard it Jas and Alecia pulled back from each other.Seeing that, all Yao Tan could say in an angry voice was "Young Lady, he is way too old for you.Get away from him and go inside and speak to Anna."
"Daddy, no.I am staying here."
With that Alecia took a harder grip on Jas' arm.Jas decided that he would be better off speaking to her father alone, so leaned down and whispered "Alecia, your dad wants to warn away from you.Go in and talk to Anna.I promise that I will stay here while you talk to the police."
Alecia nodded, let go of Jas' arm and returned inside.As soon as her back was turned, Yao Tan grabbed Jas by the arm and pulled him along the patio out of sight from Anna and Alecia.He then slapped Jas across the face and told him "Stay away from my daughter.She does not need you around her."
"Sir, I let you do that because you are worried about her.I am not stupid.She is a young woman who has been to hell and back, but for so reason she feels she can trust to support her.I promised her I will be there to do that, and I will not break my word to her."
"Well stay away from her after today.She does not need you in her life."
"That is her choice, sir.We should go inside, but I will not tell her about this as it will hurt her further."
With that Jas turned and walked away and went back inside.Yan Tan followed him in, still with a scowl on his face, that he found difficult to hide from his daughter.As he entered into the room, three people were being shown into the room.
