"I don't believe it...I don't . How's that even possible? I'm pretty sure that the deal was sealed and all...and I was more than sure that we would get it...How did this nobody end up getting the deal? What did they have that we didn't give? How's that possible?" She questioned while staring at the TV screen." It feels like this person had already planned it ahead. To Counterattack you and get the deal for themselves. What if that's the case?" Nora spoke up with her suggestion.Becky was still in disbelief. She couldn't believe what was happening now and didn't think she could stand there any further.

"So, I'll politely ask again. I wonder what the purpose of calling me here was. What is it that you desperately wanted to talk to me about?" He asked While staring at both ladies. Casually."I heard that... you were the one who got to secure the deal..from Mr Albert" Becky said with a calm expression while staring at him. "I wanted to confirm if this is the case?"Jace paused as he heard the question. He thought for a while And then stared at them "Did you come all the way here...just to ask me that? Didn't you see the news or so? I believe it's all over the internet already so....""I can't believe you didn't check that but came over here to ask me that.... isn't that a waste of both our times...Miss?" He raised an eyebrow at her.Becky Smiled "I know.. I saw it on the news and all ..But you know I don't tend to believe whatever I see just like that. So I'm more of a logical person. So i wanted to come ask you in person" Jace sighed as

As soon as the two ladies heard what Jace had said, both of them paused as they stared at Him. Their jaws were almost on the floor from way as they stared at each other and then looked at Jace who was calmly sipping down the wine before him.They couldn't believe their ears or what was being said. Jace had just said two things that had them stunned now and they certainly didn't know how to follow it up or what "And what...what are you talking about?" Nora questioned trying to cover up. Even though she knew it was almost useless to do so now."Do you think you can use those cheap tricks on me? Coming to make me talk trash according to what you want..and then record it to use against me...She Smiled as she stared at them "This isn't the first time I've seen Such tricks though"The two ladies stared at each other again as Becky paused the recording which he was taking.

Becky questioned him."What else could that statement mean other than the fact that I was the one who took the video myself" Jace Smiled "I was the one who took it with all my wits and now I'm showing it to you. What's wrong about that? Don't you think I can do that as well?" He questioned."Who the hell are you?" Nora questioned. They were not feeling at ease with him here and they already had a bad feeling about Jace. So Nora was growing more and more suspicious.Because this man here didn't seem like a normal person. He didn't seem like someone who had come into the picture at all. Rat

As soon as Jace walked off, the two ladies stared at each other while letting out a pant. They didn't know how to feel about what had just happened now. What they had expected to get and achieved When coming was not even what they got. Rather they got the opposite of it."What do we do now Nora? Look at the mess we're in now...How are we going to handle this now? It's already a complete mess and I don't even know if I'm thinking straight or whatever!" Becky expressed, feeling all stressed up.Nora on the other hand sat there quietly with thoughts running through her head.

After his legal lawyer picked up the line he simply said "Have you see the trending news right now?""Yeah I just saw it now and was about to call you about it ..how the hell did this even happen?" He questioned in shock."Well that's how things have turned up so before we even worry about who did it and why we have to first save me from this mess.

I mean...he had managed to get someone out of a serious case before so what if he easily escapes this time again?" He questioned.Stella on the other end of the phone said "I'll make sure you don't and I'll also offer you evidence to back it up. I've been gathering cases to take him down with so I have a thing or two that could lead to his ruin. I even have evidence of a case he commited to take himself up to the political position so that should be enough to get him into some trouble" she assured.Jace nodded "Okey then"They were probably done talking about Mr Kan and how to take him down and Stella was about cutting the line when He offered to ask her."What about our parents.
