''Let me in!'' She hit one of the man who tried to manhandle her and screamed at him, ''leave me alone. Where is he? Where is Jasper Miles? Does he think this shows how powerful he is? No, it shows what a coward he is.''
''Inayah, stop it.'' Clara held Inayah back.
''No, I can't stop. No, I won't stop. What did I do to him for him to target me this way? That is my house, it is the only thing I have left in this world and he wants me to leave it. Where am I supposed to go?'' Inayah chuckled and tussled her hair as she turned to the men.
''Tell Jasper Miles that if he doesn't want me to bring the whole neighbourhood out here and make them aware that he owns this place; then he should come out and face me. What he is doing is cowardice.'' Inayah yelled at the top of her voice.
''Miss, please leave. The boss is not inside.''
''He is inside. That is his car. Tell him to come out now before I do something bad to his glass mansion.'' Inayah threatened.
Inayah looked up into the glass window and saw the window sliding, closing up and she smirked.
She pointed at the window saying, ''I see you're really home. Jasper Miles, if you don't fear me, why don't you come out and face me?''
Looking around her, Inayah found a stone at the side and picked it up and Clara stopped her.
''Inayah, don't. That is going to cost you more than your life.'' Clara held Inayah's hand.
''I don't care. If he doesn't come out; I am going to smash his expensive car with the stone.'' Inayah threatened as she looked at the window.
''Miss, calm down and go back with your friend.'' One of the men said and tried to take the stone out of her hand.
As they pushed and pulled, she lost her balance and fell down, scratching her knee against the concrete ground.
''Aaah...'' she screamed as she looked at her leg.
''Ayah, are you alright? You're hurt'' Clara bent down to help Inayah up.
Just then the gate opened and Jasper came out. He looked at the bodyguard who pushed Inayah down with a cold stare and asked.
''Who told you, you could touch her with your filthy hands?'' He looked angry.
''Sorry boss. I didn't mean to hurt her.'' The bodyguard apologised before Jasper turned towards Inayah.
''Do you enjoy sitting on the ground?'' He asked and squatted to her level. Jasper smiled and stretched forth his hand towards Inayah.
Inayah moved back and clenched her hands when she saw that he had stretched forth his hand.
His shrew smile under the mask suddenly scared her but she was not about to show it.
Jasper smiled and turned to one of the bodyguard saying, ''what are you waiting for? Call Nick to come immediately!''
''Yes, boss!'' He replied and took out his phone. He made the call and hung up before telling Jasper.
''Boss, Dr. Nick and Butler James are already on their way here.''
''Okay.'' Jasper smirked and touched Inayah's face, ''we can't have you fighting with a bleeding knee Miss. Ibrahim.''
Inayah glared at him and tried to stand up. She almost fell and Clara who was behind her helped her up.
Inayah steadied herself and looked at her knee before she looked up and lifted her hand.
Before everyone could react, she had given Jasper a slap across the face. It resonated and made everyone to momentarily freeze as they watched with shocked expressions.
Two of the bodyguards rushed forward and Jasper stopped them with his hand.
He smirked and stepped closer to Inayah and asked.
''Miss Ibrahim…'' He raised his left brow, ''do you have any idea what you just did?''
''I told you to not mess with me. Why are you doing this to me?'' Inayah asked tearfully. Her eyes turned watery but it wasn't because she slapped him.
It was because she found herself pitiful and helpless before him. She hated how he made her feel.
''Jasper!'' Dr. Nick and Butler James walked to them.
''Young master!''
Jasper looked at Inayah's knee and said to Nick. ''Nick, she is hurt. Treat her wounds first!''
''Okay. Miss, come with me.'' Nick said to Inayah.
''No need!" Inayah stepped back. "I am not your charity case. Just stay away from my property or I will curse you.'' Inayah said and turned to Clara, ''what are you still doing here? Let's go!''
''Huh?'' Clara came back to her senses and hurried to Inayah who was limping away.
''Jasper, what happened? Why is she hurt?'' Nick asked.
''Fire him!!!'' Jasper said, referring to the bodyguard who pushed Inayah down. ''Butler James, tell the guards to leave the house immediately.'' Jasper added.
''Yes, young master!''
…..
Miss Gladys Apartment.
Miss. Gladys dressed Inayah's wound while scolding her, ''I told you to come here straight if anything happens and what? You slapped Mr. Miles, now what?''
''Your life is literally over, Ayah.'' Clara said as she sucked a lollipop.
''I didn't even how my hand reached his cheek fast. When I saw him smile at my pain; I just slapped him. Do you think he will send people to kill me?'' Inayah said after realising her mistake.
''The last time a woman tried to touch him; she disappeared and no one knows her whereabouts till now. Inayah, you're done for!'' Clara smirked and looked at Inayah, ''or maybe just like in the movies, he will fall in love with you and start to chase you.''
''Hey!'' Inayah screamed at her.
''Stop it, Clara. Can't you see Inayah is scared to her wits already?'' Miss Gladys finished and closed the first aid box.
''She should have come with me when I asked here from the start. She was acting like superwoman.''
''Aunt, do you think I acted rashly?''
''Yes, you did!'' Miss Gladys admitted.
''But, that man stole my house. What was I to do? You know I hate being powerless.''
''How about we go to him tomorrow and beg him to forgive you? We can come to terms with him concerning the house.'' Miss Gladys sighed.
Yesterday, her boss at the law firm had called her that Miles Group were looking to sign a contract with them through her.
She knew at once that she was been pressured but she couldn't tell Inayah about it. She knew how Inayah loved the house''
