Chapter 2 Disguise as a man
Chapter 2 Disguise as a man
It’s already morning when Jamie arrives at home.
Her father, Jack Moore, who is in charge of the whole family, sits uptight on the sofa, with poker face.
Jack stares at Jamie, and says disgustedly when he realizes Jamie was out all night, ”no wonder you are acting under-bred. After all, you're raised by that filthy woman.”
Jack’s words hurt Jamie, like a knife stabbing into her heart. Her all–night abscence is just an action without manners in her father’s eyes. And her mother, who has dedicated her whole life to him, is just a filthy woman in his eyes.
Such a father doesn't deserve her love and respect.
However, now she stays at the Moore’s house in servility. Not for herself, but for her mother who is lying in the hospital. So Jamie has to lower her head, secretly clenching her hands, and says timidly, “Sorry father, it won't happen again.”
“Now that you're part of our Moores, you have to drop your bad habits, and learn the rules of upper class. If you make one more mistake, you will be punished.”
Jamie trembles a bit instinctively when she hears the words.
Family rules of the Moore, is to be whipped for 100 times, by the one who is in charge of the family.
These whippings are still fresh in Jamie’s memory.
When she first came to the Moore family, she kept her mother’s advice in mind all the time. Thus, everything is done with great care.
However, she still fell into a trap.
She just accidentally touched Jacqueline’s watch, which was placed on the desk. But she got framed of stealing it. So Jack whipped her 100 times regardless of the truth. He beat her so hard that her back looked like a bloody pulp. She had been lying on bed for three months to get better.
“Sorry father, it won't happen again.” Jamie repeats. Jack is impatient, but still tries to restrain, “Now your sister has engaged with William, you need to discipline yourself. Don't disgrace your sister and the family.”
Jamie can't help to think of the night with Dan when she heard the wordWilliams, which made her blush.
However, Jack gets angrier when he sees this. He can't believe that this coward and timid person is his son, whose head is lowering and clothes is clenched by hands.
He would have driven him out if Jamie wasn’t the only son for succession.
Finally, Jack let Jamie go back her room. Out of sight, out of mind.
Jamie goes back to her room, and locks the door carefully. Then she grabs some clean clothes and walks into the bathroom.
All her clothes are loose and saggy, in case someone will notice that she wears corset bar. Besides, her body is too slender to support those oversized clothes, which makes her have no masculinity at all.
No wonder Jacqueline always calls her a sissy.
Layers by layers, Jamie takes off the bra’s strip, which exposes her great body shape.
Jamie feels sad when she looks at herself in the mirror. In fact, she's a cute girl with short haircut.
Her mother was Jack’s mistress 18 years ago, which means that Jamie is an illegitimate child of the Moore family. In order to go back to the Moore family, her mother always tells her to live by disguising as a man. And all of their efforts pay off. Because the Moore family has no other child beside Jacqueline.
To ensure the business of Moore family won’t fall in others’ hands, Jack has to get Jamie back, which is the last choice because she is a ‘male’.
For the past 18 years, mother has contributed herself in raising Jamie. In returns, she gets nothing but illness and weak body. The high medical expense leaves Jamie no choice but to seek help from the Moore family. That’s why she came back to the family.
Jamie still remembers how people looked like when she first came here. No one likes her, and she got no welcome but snobbery from the entire families. Even her father was also annoying her.
Thinking of the past time, a bitter smile appears on Jamie’s face. Her fingers stroke her body, and there are marks left on her last night by Dan. When she feels her skin, where hickeys covers. The hickeys are so many that almost cover all over her body. It’s not difficult to tell from the hickeys that how hard she was violated last night.
Jamie trembles when her warm fingertip touches the skin, and she can’t help thinking of last night, about Dan’s chiseled face. Suddenly, her face turns blush and hot.
After all, she had never been closed to a man for the past 18 years, not even at school. She never speaks to a male classmate in private before, but now she has done the most intimated thing between male and female with Dan.
She shakes her head to make herself stop thinking about this.
That fabulous man is Jacqueline’s fiance, her brother-in-law. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
What she should hope now is that Dan will never find out it was her who slept with him last night.
If her disguise gets exposed, not only she will be driven out from the family, but also her mother’s medical expenses will be cut off, which is really the end for her.
At the same time, Dan has returned to the enterprise, the assistant already has the camera’s record for him. Dan asks, “What have you found?”
“President Dan, the lobby’s camera was sabotaged purposely last night, so it didn’t shoot who put drug in your wine in the engagement party.” The assistant sweats while he speaks, “but the camera shows that on the way to your room, it was a man who carried you into the room.”
Dan responses, “Do you know who he is?”
The assistant passes a printed picture to him, and Dan takes a glance.
Dan never meets the man on the picture before. When he looks into it, he finds that the man on the picture is more like an immature boy.
Judging from the picture, that boy has a pretty face, a head shorter than him. And Dan can tell that the boy’s body is weak. Because he just slightly leaned on him, but the boy looked like he was almost crushed.
Dan is sure that he never meets this person before.
The assistant continues his report, “the camera was broken from here, so we can’t find out when the man leaved the room.”
“Go find out.” Dan squeezes the photo, his tone sounds stately.
This boy must have something to do with him being drugged, Dan thinks.
