The Billionaire Recluse

The monroe fire

~Lexi~

I had heard Jasper and Lilly arguing from my office, I didn't think she'd fly over so fast im probably going to get fired now, I'd told her how he's ignored me since what happened at the party unbeknownst to me she didn't even know what had happened it was news to her.

I needed a little break from my work so I headed down to the library, I loved Jaspers Library he said I could come down any time I fancied, but stay out of the locked room at the back, I was always curious about that room why was it locked?

On entering the library I noticed that door was slightly ajar, I couldn't help but wander over and take a peek.

Slowly opening the door, on the wall was 5 people with string around the board, all I can explain it as is what you see on crime movies when someone's trying to crack a crime.

I walked over to the wall to take a closer look, a picture of a woman I'd say around 40 and a man similar age 2 young girls I'd say around 19 and 12 with a young teen boy I'd say about 14.

I carried on walking round and found a scrap book, opening it up was a news paper clipping which said, 'mafia family dead in fire along side pregnant wife, taking a closer look it states the Monroe family died in a tragic fire along side Jasper Monroes wife Mollie Monroe age 19 was 4 months pregnant'

My hand automatically went to my mouth, I gasped in shock,oh my god I understand why he's a recluse he pretty much lost his whole family.

I continued to read, Martin Monroe age 42, wife of Martin Melinda Monroe and 2 children Lilac Monroe age 13 and Joseph Monroe aged 14 and Jasper monroes wife Mollie who was 4 months pregnant with a baby girl at the time, died in a fire leaving the only two living family members twins Jasper and Charlotte Monroe age 20.

Skipping through the scrap book was pictures of his family. Looking around the room it looked like Jasper had been investigating this for some time, as if it was a murder.

The door creaking make me nearly drop the book and jump back.

" get out! What are you doing in here?" Jasper yelled At me and grabbed the book, but I just froze stood still in place.

" why are you in here!! Your fired!! Get out of my house!" Jasper screamed at me coming closer to my face. I panicked I ran to my office grabbed my coat and bag left quickly as I could driving home, sobbing.

He'd scared me, I get it I wasn't suppose to be snooping. Now Iv lost my job, nice one lex.
