chapter 41With head held high, Ana walked majestically into the company. The aura she exuded as she strode passed was defiant, confident, the superwoman she was.The image of a stunningly attractive, fearless star who had made it to the top of the jungle, that she could relate to the coolness of her mentor's demeanour, was one that left us speechless. She asked so little, yet possessed so much. Her quietness belied her confidence, her charm and her achievements.Her attire, a lovely white flowing one-shoulder shirt matched with white bottoms, like the proverbial white garment with black markings was an example to all of them in different ways. She epitomized elegance in the simplest of ways, which spoke volumes about who she was and how successful she had become.As she stepped in, everyone left what they had been doing and bowed slightly in obeisance, a sign of respect.She nodded coldly, a soft "Hello" was all that she uttered, but it was enough to captivate them all and hold them

chapter 43"took you long enough! Who is it?""Ummm. The first attack was by an organization called team dark. They were hired by your aunt Shila. They also were behind your second attack since they weren't successful the first time."Since he didn't get a response from Mason, he continued. "And then another group called The silencer attacked you. They are a group of assassins working for your uncle John. He paid them 1million dollars to take you out."Mason relaxed on his seat. He hummed and nodded slowly. "So I am only worth a million dollars?" His face was expressionless but the look in his eyes sent shivers down Leonard's spine. He looked like a man possessed by an angry demon and every muscle in his face was in a razor's edge. "Go! I'll get back to you." He said in a low tone as he spun his seat around so he was now facing the window.Leonard heaved a sigh of relief as he left the office. He hadn't even taken two steps when his phone rang, it was from the old master. His hand

chapter 45"Mr Jan, thank you for choosing us. I assure you that you won't regret this choice of yours.""Miss Ana , I don't doubt that. I must admit,at first when I saw you were a woman, I was a bit weary but after talking with you, I'm glad I did. I am impressed by your business success. There are few such woman.""Thank you again. We can truly depend on you Mr. Jan" Ana who had kept a neutral look on her face spoke."Everyone knows your are honest and are known for your honesty. I don't mind I just want to make sure you are trustworthy""You won't need to worry about that I won't betray you" Ana smiled showing a beautiful smile."Alright then. I'll see you next week." Jan replied."Bye" Ana said."You too, I'll wait for you here."Jan waved goodbye and left the office.Ana fell back on her seat. She sighed from exhaustion. She looked at the clock it was 2pm. She hurriedly left the office in hurry and headed for the kids school."Phoebe? There will be a delivery today. Say around 2;

chapter 47Mason sat in his office and as it was his usual routine, he was going through his emails.There was a knock on the door and Leonard entered."Young master, I have the file for the bidding. I'd like to know how much you have planned to bid for the land before I go ahead to submit it."Mason looked away from his laptop and sat thoughtfully for some moment. "Bod twenty million..."Si-sir? twenty million? isn't that too small for..."I see you want my position." Mason said suddenly."Huh!" Leonard asked confused. "I..it's...no..."Then shut up and let me finish before you butt in.""Sorry young master.""Such nonsense." Mason muttered under his breath.

Mason was certain things were Everything was set and didn't bother asking anymore questions.Leonard burst into his office looking like he was being chased. Mason said nothing to him. he just sat, quietly observing him and waiting for him to talk.Leonard on the other was too frightened to say anything.
