Jason could barely hold himself back as he paced in front of the operation room. His fist opened and closed in agitation as he wondered what was going on. He felt like trashing something or hitting someone yet he was all alone. The only other person close by was Anastasia. She was seated on one of the padded benches in the hallway as she looked straight ahead with a blank expression.He had no idea what his men had done but Aria and Jessie were nowhere around. At the moment, he would have preferred that they could be right there, he wouldn’t mind pummeling that idiot, Jessie.“Where is Heinrich?” Jason had no idea where Charlotte’s father could be at this moment when Charlotte was in such a critical situation. “Had the man been so blind to his wife’s antics that he would allow her to be anywhere near Charlotte during such a time?”Anger pulsed in Jason as he looked intently at the operation room’s door. Something was wrong. He could feel it. Charlotte was not a woman to be weakened by

“Don't tell me how sorry you are, get whatever you screwed up done rectified immediately!” Jason snapped and was about to disconnect the call.“She got away from us, sir” “She what?” he knew who the she was and he knew that her escape spelt nothing but more trouble. “What did I say about keeping an eye on her?”“We…I am sorry, sir. She seemed to have caught on to us and we think she wiped clothing with someone else but we lost her at the club she went…”“Wait, she went to a club? Right after releasing her?” Jason felt he must have heard it wrong but the person on end affirmed it. It made no sense to Jason. Why will Aria go to a club after he told his men to let her go? He would have expected her to run back home to Heinrich or start another plan. Unless…. “Where is Ashton?” Jason asked.“On a racecourse with his friends, sir”“On a…keep your eyes on him. Don’t even dare call me back with any bullshit about how you lost him too. Then find Aria” he snapped before disconnecting the cal

Jason couldn’t stand it. He had to leave. One look at the children and Heinrich was a mess all over again. He wept profusely as Jasmine, who was awake by then blinked at him and moved her little feet as if acknowledging her grandfather’s presence. That got Heinrich going again and Jason knew he had to leave when the latter started cooing about how much Jasmine looked like Ilyeum. Jason couldn’t argue since he had never seen his mother-in-law before but he knew that there would be no time that he would look at Jasmine without remembering Charlotte.He left the room to call Celia and inform his family about what happened. When he got back to the room, Heinrich had left but he left two of his men guarding the door. Jason saw the nannies arranged by Andrea with the children when he entered. He gave them space as they changed the children’s diapers and get them prepared to b transported. It was agreed that it would be best to take the children to charlotte’s home since she had the nursery

The fact that they agreed to meet up with him that evening humbled Jason. He suddenly realised that he did not even know what to say to them. “I am sorry for your loss and I want to express my condolence?” Jason shook his head as he wondered if that was something he was supposed to say to people who were strangers to him. Would they appreciate the fact that he came from Montreau to pay his last respect to their family or would they find the fact that he came after the man’s death suspicious? Jason took his mind off what would happen later as he adjusted the bouquet of white roses he had with him. He pressed the buzzer on the wide, tall gate at the main entrance of King’s Court Cemetery. He knew that those behind that gate had already seen him because there were about three CCTV cameras mounted at the gate and though it wasn’t fully dark yet, the area was flooded with light. He had barely pressed the button when a voice asked through the intercom who was there and what he wanted.

Jason couldn't care less if the meal at Bravo restaurant tasted like a twig. He did not intend to eat. He could see that the two ladies in front of him seemed to be having issues with their order as well. Well, the older one at least. She had been pushing her ramen about with her fork while she gave him furtive glances from time to time. Jason was sure that his face must be imprinted with the smile that he consistently bestowed on her whenever she looked at him. He half wished he could be anywhere else right now than sitting across a woman who seemed to distrust him on sight. It was either that or Jason was still holding a grudge about the fact that she was the reason why he had not seen his master that one-time that he was so close. He knew it could have something to do with the fact that she made him nervous too. How was he supposed to ask a self-assured woman who was in charge of his benefactor's grandchild if they needed him to help with anything? How could he say that without m
