The Unwanted Child

Chapter 6

"Then let this unwanted child of yours be the part of my household, Mr Parker" Ashton Reynold who was standing along the hallway away from the eyes of Parker's speaks as he has already witnessed the whole chaos since the start... Everyone gets alerted listening to his intimidating voice, Christ stands up to greet him but before that Ashton took long strides towards them, taking the seat opposite to Mr Parker's shocking them

"I was invited here for the dinner, right...then why everyone is looking so shocked" Ashton intently spoke gaining a "Yes...Yes" from everyone

"It's our honour to have you here and thanks for accepting our invitation" Mr Parker tries to cover up the situation that occurred minutes before but Ashton's eyes were boring holes on one person standing there

"You can go, we will call you if anything is required" Christine shoo away Ziva as she saw what took Ashton attention

"Where are you sending her, Mrs Parker...isn't she is a part of your family and your own child?" Ashton questioned Christine, "Nothing actually she was busy preparing the meal and was not ready yet so I am just asking her to go and change" Christine replied in a confounded state

Ashton pulls a chair beside him, "I never knew that you have one more child beside Christ and sorry what's your name" he deliberately uttered trying to recall Zency's name as she was trying to seduce him by lowering her dress more which now shows half of her breast, he gestures Ziva to come and sit beside him startling everyone

"Hello Ashton, I am Zency...you must have not remembered my name because we haven't met before personally...but I can assure after tonight you will never forget my name" Zency spoke seductively forwarding her hand to Ashton for a handshake but he acted as if he didn't listen to a thing said by her

"Come Ziva, take a sit" Ashton pats the chair seat again as Ziva was standing there like a statue, "Ziva, Ashton is calling you...go and sit" Christine push Ziva making her sit beside Ashton while Zency was boiling from inside

"So let's start the dinner made by your pretty girl and discuss business" Ashton comes on the business topic and starts discussing with Mr Parker and Christ about the investment...he ignored Zency all the time while served Ziva as she was uncomfortably sitting their not knowing what to do which astonished everyone

After the dinner was done they move to the living room while Ziva was cleaning the table, when everything was done Christine came to Ziva, "Go and pack your bag, Ashton is taking you with him...be a good girl and follow him, do whatever he asks you too" Christine speaks silently scaring Ziva

"But Mom, where he wants to take me and why?" Ziva fearing the worst questioned anyways

"This is your last chance if you want to stay with us then do accordingly that he asks" Christine threatened her dragging Ziva in her room, "Pack your required stuff and leave" she stood there angrily glaring at her compelling Ziva to do as she asked who packed her necessities with tears rolling down her eyes

When Ziva was done she looked at her mom who was waiting for her anxiously, "Wipe those crocodile tears and let's go" she took the tissue harshly wiping Ziva's tear pulling her down with her

"Ashton, look Ziva is all ready to go with you...she promised to behave but if she don't then let me know I will explain her, sometimes she became too stubborn to listen to anyone but I can assure that she will hear you" Christine pushes her towards Ashton who holds her hand

"Let's go then, your family already gave me the permission and Mr Parker, I will ask my secretary to get back to you with the proposal to sign" Ashton leaves with Ziva who was trailing behind while Christ was throwing his hand in the air, running happily around in joy of getting the deal, which was not signed yet...

Ashton is driving while Ziva was restless digging her nails in her palm as she didn't know what awaits her future...As Ziva don't have any confidence she was not able to utter a single word... there were many questions in her mind which she wanted to ask but didn't have the strength to do so

"Stop it Ziva, this way you are hurting yourself" Ashton gesturing her hand spoke while his eyes were fixed on the road

"What are you worried about?" he tries to start a conversation but Ziva was unable to form any word, now she was grabbing her bag tightly

Ashton gets irritated, with his free hand he jerks taking the bag from her grip throwing it on the bag seat, "I ask you to stop harming yourself...you should listen to what other person has to say rather than behaving like a child"

"I am sorry...please let me go" Ziva now whimpered

"Where you want to go?" Ashton inquired without any sign of anger

"I will give you the required money that my family took from you but please let me go and trust me, I will pay" Ziva with a trembling voice spoke in a whisper to which Ashton chuckle

"First stop crying... I don't want the people to think that I am k********g you and secondly, if you have that much money then why the heck your family will ask for my support" Ashton queried as he got interested in the girl sitting beside him

Ziva did as he asked for, she wiped her tears with the back of her palm, "My family never asked me for it but I can pay" she tries to justify her statement

"You are already paying Ziva, they sent you with me this easily and didn't care about what I am gonna do with you" Ashton puts forward the fact that horrifies Ziva to the core

"Please I beg you, let me go, I promise to pay every single penny that my family took but don't do anything with me" Ziva begs Ashton but his face turned cold as he stopped the car with a screech

"I have some work to be taken care of, so be a good girl and sit here my men will be watching on you" Ashton removes his seatbelt pointing at his men who cover the car as if warning her not to do anything silly...He goes out locking the car whilst Ziva was shivering inside like a leaf with the thought of what Ashton is going to do with her, she wants to go out but the guards are covering her and now she won't be able to ask for help too...She started to bite her nails anxiously as she got impatient unable to help herself out of the situation...

Ashton comes back thirty minutes later, giving a smile to the girl in the car, "Water" he gave her a bottle to drink but Ziva getting suspicious about his actions refuses to drink, "As you wish...you can have it when you want"  he keeps the bottle down and starts driving as soon a the guards give him the clearance

"What are you gonna do with me" Ziva hesitatingly question as she knew that she don't have a way to go away from him

"What do you think I am going to do" Ashton questions her back with coldness, to which Ziva trembles with fright

"I don't want to stay with you...I will pay" Ziva cried out speaking in between her sobs

"Just stop crying...I already told that you are paying me while being in my aid, so stop behaving like a child" Ashton roared on her that make her gulp down her saliva

"I will do everything, I can cook, swipe the floor, mop it and every household activity but not that..." She spoke so innocently that Ashton grips the steering tightly that his knuckles go white

"What's that...that you don't want to do" he intently inquires as his face turn red

"That...the thing to do, that my parents send me with you for" she tried to reply him but was not able to communicate

"What's that Ziva" Ashton screamed to which she jumps in fear pressing her body against the car door

"Sleeping with you" Ziva finally spoke in fear as Ashton was looking fierce and she thought that he will get mad on her if she didn't replied or even beat her

Ashton laughs at that, startling her as Ziva couldn't understand how one can be angry, mad, furious and then heartily laugh at the same time, "What's the reason you don't want to do that" he grills her more

Ziva was now confused as he was calm now, "Because I am not like my sister"

Her words bring a smile on Ashton's face and he looks at her for the first time after he started driving, "then no one from now onwards will dare to force you or come near you without your wish" he spoke with warmth in his voice and an unknown glimmer was visible in his eyes

"Actually I am taking you with me to babysit someone" Ashton taking a deep breath exhales with his eyes on the lane

Ziva gets happy hearing his words, "I won't let you down and will do my best...How old is the child" she enthusiastically inquired

Ashton chuckled feeling her happy and relieved vibes, "How old are you?"

"I am twenty" she nonchalantly replied

"Hmmm...So I hope you will do your best as you said and won't let me down" he spoke grabbing all her curiosity, "He is twenty-two...
