Jail isn't enough

"What's so urgent that makes you come back?" Jess asked with concern.

"I have suspicions about my parents' incident…" She replied.

*****

Jess gulped. "Bad or good?" She asked nervously. Genesis sighed and pulled her into a hug. "Erm bad...but I'll get justice for them don't worry." She consoled her. "So that means it wasn't an accident," Jess concluded. "I don't know but if it was they will pay ten times the pain they caused us," Genesis responded.

Jess laughed softly. "Yeah...Yeah. I know you will Gen and I will be by your side this time around." Jess smiled confidently. "I'm sorry I wasn't there when that happened…" She murmured and sighed.

"Don't talk about it, the past is in the past." Genesis replied."Mn. Go say bye to your hubby first and then we can leave." Jess teased.

"I still need that report by tomorrow. No excuses." Genesis reminded her, ignoring her last statement. "No but really Gen your lawyers have always been efficient. Mr.Hill is going straight to jail. Why didn't you do the same with your uncle?" She asked

"No jail will be too easy for him. The evidence against him isn't enough. If I want revenge it must be impeccable. What I did now is nothing. I will slowly destroy their resources until they have nothing left." She explained.

"I will let them do as they wish for these two moths. Either way with the present my aunt received I don't think there is much to do. That file was only a copy of thousands I have." She continued with a smirk."Besides Mr.Hill is just a pawn. Without his support they can't gain more properties and assets from my parents. The elders are already aware of his greediness too. They only let him do as he pleased because they trusted Mr.Hill." As she said this Genesis chuckled.

Jess nodded. " So you let that happen on purpose?" She asked and looked at her with curiosity about what was in that file. "Of course I did. There is a reason why he has only those properties and not the rest," she admitted. Jess smiled silently and didn't say anymore, knowing Genesis will make her wait and see instead spoiling her plans to her.

"Give me 5 minutes I'll be back," Genesis told her and walked away. "Why 5? Take a whole hour, I'll wait!" Jess shouted from far. Genesis shook her head and walked in front of Aiden's car. She opened the door and sat down.

Aiden gave her a satisfied nod. She smiled lightly. "I'll leave with Jess. We are going to get coffee and catch up." Genesis informed him.

"Okay. I'll pick you up when you're done then." He responded. "Uh-uh I'm staying over with her." She responded. Aiden nodded and his eyes moved to the mansion's doors opening. Mr.Smith, his wife and son came out.

They had a gloomy air around then and as they all turned to look at Aiden's car they were surprised. They boarded their own cars and didn't try to cause more trouble. The next people to come out were Genesis' lawyers. Jay and Nick escorted Mr.Hiller and had him under their hold.

Mr.Hill was taken into their car in which they would directly send him to take into action the justice for his crimes.

Genesis watched along with Aiden. "Is it bad that I don't feel bad for Mr.Hill and his family at all?" She suddenly asked. Aiden chuckled. "I would be surprised if you did." He answered meaningfully.

"Come on I wasn't that heartless…." She defended herself seemingly offended by his words. Aiden arched an eyebrow but didn't say anything.

Genesis chuckled. "You are way worse though….." She mumbled quietly.

"I'll see you later!" She told him. "Mn." He responded shortly. Genesis stood quiet and didn't move. She felt like he still had more to say so she stayed a bit longer to wait for him. "Why are you still here? Changed your mind?" He teased.

Genesis snorted. "I'll leave."

"Wait." He called out. Genesis resisted her urge to roll her eyes. 'See I was right!' She thought.

"What happened?" She asked. " Before you leave, answer my question." He answered. "Did the kiss mean anything to you or was it at the spur of the moment." He asked.

He seemed guarded and he was. He was guarding his heart, waiting to be hurt by her response. "No." She responded with a small blush.

"Ahem even though I'm not sure of what it meant I can assure you it wasn't just at the spur of the moment." She continued sincerely.

Aiden smiled and leaned in to push a few strands of her hair behind her ear. "So does that mean you felt it too?" He asked referring to that spark present in their interactions and the loud thumping of their hearts.

"I-I erm well yes…." She replied shyly. Her behavior totally changed from before. 'God why can't I just act normally'

Genesis cleared her throat and pushed him away slightly. Her hands were placed on his chest and she slowly took them away not wanting her mind to wander around dirty thoughts.

Hearing her response Aiden smiled victoriously. "Don't get too confident, Mr. Miller. You still have a long way to go." She told him, making Aiden sigh.

"It's good to know there is some process." He responded. And leaned in a bit more. Genesis froze. He leaned in closer until his lips brushed right past her upper lip. Genesis closed her eyes and waited expectantly.

Her expectations were not fulfilled because he only kissed her cheek. Aiden chuckled and Genesis instantly opened her eyes. "I won't kiss you again until we are in an official relationship. For now you can just take me as your suitor." He explained.

'Damn. My poor fragile heart! Are there even guys like this nowadays?'

She felt like she was slowly falling into his trap. His sweetness is something she couldn't handle. Every damn time he did something like this her heart would start racing like crazy. Now she could only hope he doesn't hear her heart's loud thumping. At least this way she can save herself from further embarrassment. What was she even expecting? A kiss? Why?

She frowned. Holding onto the collar of his shirt she gave his lips a small peck and she let go. The kiss ended as soon as it started. He wanted to kiss back and make it last longer and this was her exact goal.

She licked her lips, turned her face away, and got up.

Peeking inside the car she watched his stunned face and chuckled. "What happened, were you expecting more Mr.?" She teased. "Sorry that's all you get. Those were your words you can't take em' back" She reminded him and closed the door.

"So bold…" He thought knowing he had just picked up a rock and thrown it at his own foot.
