Chapter 152 - The Jewelry Shop (3)

Dawn turned to look at Jason. She ignored Niall, leaned against the counter with all the patience in the world and said, "So you are saying that every jewelry in this place belongs to Mr. Jason?"

Niall sniggered. "Yes. I will take that necklace and Jason doesn\'t even have to pay." She derived so much happiness in putting her down. She had bought four more diamond necklaces from this store for her mother and younger sister.

Again Dawn disregarded her statement and continued to talk to Jason. "You are claiming that you are Lily Wyatt\'s Grandson too?" She laughed rudely. "As far as I know, Mr. Jason, you aren\'t Lily Wyatt\'s original Grandson. Her real Grandson is Cole Wyatt. So according to your logic, this shop actually belongs to Cole, and not you."

The Manager and the rest of the employees around them were surprised beyond words. All of them had eyes focused on the heiress of the Wyatt Empire. The family declared her missing or dead and here she was standing right in front of them. While some smiled genuinely at her, some covered their faces to stop smiling and instead their faces became pinkish. A feeling of loyalty rose in their chest.

Jason bared his teeth. "You bitch!" He said in an angry tone. "You both don\'t exist for Lily Wyatt. Don\'t take her name with that dirty mouth of yours. How dare you even think of claiming ownership when you are clearly not wanted, and when Lily hates you so much?"

"Really Jason, this woman has the nerve! Not only she seduced a man like Daryn, she is now trying to enter the family, which has shunned her! How much can a person stoop?" said Niall.

She waved her hand towards Jason and said, "Oh don\'t worry! That hatred is mutual." Then Dawn tilted her head. A frown formed on her forehead. "But what has hatred got to do with genes? It doesn\'t change the fact that Cole and I are the heirs of the Wyatt\'s Empire. You are on loan time, so enjoy as much as you can while you are at it."

Jason was seething with anger. He bared his teeth. "Loan time, my foot! You have forgotten that you were thrown out of the house a long time back. You will never be able to come back or get your father\'s companies."

Dawn sighed. She shook her head and replied, "Don\'t you remember that I have acquired two of your companies just a month back? I think you don\'t. Rack your brains, and who knows that you may recall the humiliation you had to undergo."

"Dawn!" Jason shouted and every employee and the customer over there started to look at them. "I am warning you. Get out of this place before I lose my temper and physically drag you out of here."

But Dawn was in no mood to listen to his yada yada. She turned her gaze to the Cashier and said, "Bill the necklace in my name."

Jason glared at the Cashier. "If you do that, you will bear the repercussions," he glowered and then stepped forward to hold Dawn\'s hand. "I am going to show you your real worth, you scum!"

A menacing voice from behind boomed, "Who are you to touch my wife?" Daryn had entered the shop. He had just entered the shop and was holding the door open with his hand still on the knob. He was bursting with protective anger. He looked bloodthirsty and his aura became dark. The glass knob in his hands would have shattered if Dawn hadn\'t stopped him mentally.

Jason retreated his hand immediately from her. "Wife?" Since when did she become his wife? His eyes became wide and the entire demeanor changed. As for Niall, she cowered behind Jason. She didn\'t know that Dawn had come with Daryn.

Daryn walked towards them like an animal out to hunt its prey. No one could insult his wife. He came to stop right beside Dawn and held her waist. "No one and I mean no one dares to touch my wife. You will pay for it for even thinking about doing so," he said—dangerously.

Sweat dripped behind Jason\'s back. There was no way he would challenge an Alpha who had marked his mate. He had to corner Dawn in a way that he could take her down singularly and then Daryn would die on his own. His throat became dry and he didn\'t know what to say, but he had to try, "Mr. Silver, this woman is a bitch—a discarded lot. You have made a wrong choice. She is trying to steal what belongs to me."

A growl emanated from Daryn. He almost lunged at Jason when the door on the side opened and a lady walked out. In a loud voice she said, "Stop!"

Everyone stopped and looked at the source of voice.

The employees made way for Lily Wyatt as she walked in between them to the place of chaos. She went and stood right in front of Daryn. Her cold gaze traveled to Dawn. The lights falling on her showed her frail appearance and hard expressions.

"Grandmother," Dawn rasped in a whisper.

But Lily Wyatt ignored her.

Dawn\'s mind froze as profound sadness dominated her mind. Behind that wrinkly face laid a stubborn woman, who was as headstrong as a boar, whose tongue was as sharp as a razor. She had seen her Grandmother after five years, and as much as she hoped for, no yearned for warmth, she was met with coldness and apathy in her eyes. Her face was hard and flinty. Not an iota of warmth after seeing her grandchild after so long. Not an ounce of love. Bitter, unforgiving pain rose to her chest. Sadness travelled through her, draining her physically and mentally. The painful memories, which she had shoved at the back of her mind, returned with full force. The pain seared through her skin and took away every feeling of safety and security she ever had. In the presence of her Grandmother Dawn felt like an orphan. She looked at her unblinkingly.

Lily Wyatt\'s eyes went to the Cashier. She said, "Make the bill in Ms. Dawn Wyatt\'s name."

"But Grandmother, Niall wants that necklace," Jason interrupted.

Lily held her hand up to quiet him.

Daryn handed his card over to the Manager.

When the Cashier printed the bill, he folded it, placed it in an envelope and handed it to Lily along with the set in a red velvet box.

Lily took the bag from him and gave it to Daryn. "Mr. Daryn, thank you for shopping with us. My apologies for this boy\'s mistake."

Jason fumed with anger behind her.

Daryn nodded and took the bag. "Let us go," he said to Dawn and held her hand.

"Wait," Lily stopped them. She said in a very controlled voice, "Dawn, I am seeing you after a long time. It would be nice if you could visit the Wyatt House along with Cole, tomorrow. Please have dinner with us."

Dawn\'s mouth fell open. Was her Grandmother melting? Did she hear her correctly? But the coldness in her voice was still the same. "I will," she replied gently.

Daryn pulled her out of the shop.

When they were out, Jason faced Lily. "What was that Grandmother? I thought you hated Dawn!"

"I am interested in Cole," replied Lily. "Besides, you should know who Daryn is."
