Daddy James
Chapter 3 : Cursed Will
Sarah's pain and anger had doubled while she spent five years in hostel. Her story was simple and boring, no one had time for her since her father died a cowardly death of suicide when she was thirteen. But now she knew very well how to seek attention and revenge from her mother and James.
Her mother was her biggest culprit for having priorities bigger than family and James was responsible for ruining her family further by taking her dad's position. She never liked her mom but the hatred began to evolve once she married James , a man ten years younger to herself just after her dad's death.
Sarah stood there staring her mother while she downed another glass of wine,'' This looks more like you are mourning end of your rule instead of celebrating your daughter's birthday!'' She taunted Jenna keeping her clutch aside.
Jenna looked up and matched Sarah's gaze,''Birthdays come and go sweetie there's nothing to celebrate.'' Jenna paused to have couple of sips from the glass again,''But this Birthday of yours definitely needs to be mourned.'' She taunted Sarah keeping her chin up.
Jenna's words hurt Sarah directly in the heart. Whatever the relation had been but Sarah always wanted Jenna to think twice before letting out harsh words against her own daughter.
Getting back to normal Sarah pasted a confident look again on her face,'' Your rule has come to an end Mrs. Jenna Anderson. Now kindly go to hell!'' Sarah raised her tone while walking towards the staircase.
Sarah paused after rising one step. She turned flipping her hair over the shoulder,''So tonight it would be only you and Daniel at the dinner right?'' She asked looking at Jenna straight in the eye.
Jenna stood up from the maroon stool kept near the bar counter and made sounds by continuously clicking her white gold ruby ring against the glass while Sarah rolled her eyes on her irritating behaviour.
''James would be there too.'' She chuckled out of her senses before finishing off the glass in one sip and letting her fall back on the stool while butler Joseph tended to her needs of alcohol.
''Joseph, fetch her some lime juice.'' Sarah commanded the middle aged butler with a beer belly who rushed towards the kitchen obeying the command,''Jenna, I agree he is your husband but keep him away from my things.''Sarah snarled shooting a glare at James still standing on the entrance waiting for the scene to end.
Being mentioned in the conversation James felt it better to approach Jenna sitting in the bar,''Don't be afraid darling I am perfectly okay if you want to marry.'' He said softly leaning on the counter of bar as Jenna shot him a murderous look to which he responded with a pitiful smirk.
Sarah continuously stared at the gorgeous blue and violet antique vase avoiding any more eye contacts with James,''I think it's your personal life and you are an adult now; go ahead and marry if you want to do so.'' He added shocking Sarah further.
Sarah thought he would be more interested in creating troubles for her but he was ready to get her married with Daniel,''Whatever...'' Sarah muttered before turning and moving up the stairs,'' Be ready he would be here around eight.'' She yelled so James and Jenna could hear her clear.
The day was special for Sarah and she didn't want to spoil it for people who don't even care for her.
She had every detail in her mind and she felt it better to keep it in her mind till the execution time arrived next morning.
She knew that her upcoming surprise would definitely shock James and Jenna and how she enjoy seeing their shocked expressions.
Sarah marched towards her bedroom rewinding her plan in her mind trying to stay focused. This time she would leave no opportunity for both of her enemies to flee, she swore inwardly.
Finally the day arrived when Jenna Anderson was sitting helpless empty handed. How much James's waited for the day to arrive but better late than never. James was excited for the dinner as Daniel's rejection will be his first victory in this game.
He would never sit back calmly till he gets what he wants and the dinner was nothing but trumpet blowing ceremony before a big battle to start.
A battle which was decided to be one sided and winners were declared before it'd started and the winner could be none other than James. He won't let anyone else win this game.
James uncapped the wine bottle and poured it in glass,''Have you signed the file of that new contract Mrs. Anderson?'' He questioned sarcastically knowing very well what he was doing.
''Don't call me that!'' She snarled,''I haven't signed that yet.'' She said concentrating on Joseph offering her some lime juice.
James adjusted his waist coat and loosened his tie looking continuously at her with narrowed eyes,'' You better sign it quick otherwise from tomorrow every official document would be needing Sarah's autograph.'' James taunted once again making Jenna pause.
