Chapter 12

Marc Morris had disliked Danny from the start. Therefore he came up with this idea to make things even more hard for Danny, hoping he would give up.

Lord Edward puffed on his pipe, gazed at Danny and continued. 

“Agreed? Get us a deal with the Jasper and Hector group and I will let everyone know that you're the son-in-law of the Morris. You have 7 days”.

Danny Allen nodded in affirmation and immediately added, his voice was laced with a mixture of authority and determination.

“7 days is too much for something of this nature. I'll get it done tomorrow”.

Just after that, Danny and Kim left the villa and returned to his castle. 

Lord Edward Morris walked back into his seat, looking so furious yet impressed about Danny Allen's reaction to getting them involved in the Jasper and Hector group.

“He's bold, yet stupid. Jasper and Hector group is a multi billion dollar leading group in the galaxy and he thinks he can pull off a stunt like that”?

“He will eventually give up and then we would have our daughter back to us and get her married to the Claudes. With a marriage alliance like that, we'd rise above standards”.

Few hours after leaving the Morris Villa to Danny Allen's Castle.

Kim's face is contorted with a mixture of sadness and despair. Her eyes are puffy and red with tears rolling down her cheeks, her mouth is twisted in a grimace of pain and her lips tremble as she gasps for breath between sobs and speech.

“Danny, I'm so sorry. I don't even have control over my own marriage. My family always wants to control my every move and it hurts”.

Danny sits beside her, his presence calm and reassuring. He gently took her hand, pulling her close as she buried her face in his chest.

As she cries, Danny said gentle words in her ear, his voice barely above whispers.

“It's Okay. Once I can get your family acquainted with Jasper and Hector group and getting an order from them, they will have no choice but to acknowledge us as husband and wife”

Slowly but surely, Kim's sobs began to subdue, replaced by sniffles and finally a sense of calm.

“It's the Jasper and Hector group we're talking about”. Kim was worried. 

“The topest multi billion dollar international group of company. You don't just up and get acquainted with these group of company from no where. How do we get this done?”

Danny's face was laced with assurance, his voice barely above whispers.

“We will never know if we don't try, will we?”.

As she pulls back, Danny hands her a tissue and smiles softly, his eyes filled with empathy and understanding. 

Kim smiles back, her eyes red-rimmed but grateful for the comfort he's brought her. Together, they sat in comfortable silence, a sense of peace settling over them like a warm blanket.

Kim eventually dozed off after a day she had, while Danny on the other hand sat down on the couch and lit a cigarette. 

Pulling out his phone, he dialed Ferguson's number.

“Set an urgent meeting tomorrow at my place between I and the chairman of Jasper and Hector group”. 

He hardly wanted to use his privilege as the dreaded general Wolf, but was left with no choice but to pull the plug.

He finished up his cigar, and soon joined Kim to have a night rest.

The next morning, while Kim was out.

Soon a middle-aged man of about 54 years old arrived in his house. Wearing an Armani suit, and was beginning to go bald.

He was in charge of the Jasper and Hector group, in Oakvilleand his name was Damian Henderson.

The man's gaze quickly fell on Danny, and almost immediately he fell to his knees.

He was kneeling before the almighty General Wolf, a towering figure with an aura of trepidation and command.

Who's very presence seems to draw the air out of the room, leaving only a sense of reverence and trepidation in his wake.

Before arriving, Damian Henderson had taken time to realize whom he would be meeting.

“General Wo-Wolf”

“To what do I owe this invite”.

Danny put down the pilled up documents he was holding in his hands, and on looking at the middle aged man still kneeling on the ground, he said to him with his voice barely above whispers.

“Why don't you stand up”.

“Damian Henderson?”

Immediately, Damian stood up, sweating profusely, still shaking in fear and wondering if he had by any means offended the great general Wolf.

“Yes, sir.”

Danny was etched with seriousness, his voice barely above whispers and his gaze unyielding.

“Tomorrow morning, my wife Kim Morris will be coming to Jasper and Hector group, with a deal… more like a request from me”.

“Make sure you handle that personally… Didn't mess up”.

Looking excited, Damian immediately felt this relief which broke into a smile

“Of course, General Wolf. What ever request or deal from you or your household is granted, just only say the word”.

Danny's face was etched in smiles, his eyebrows rose slightly and his voice laced with warning.

“My wife's name is Kim. Kim Morris, remember that.”

“That's all, you may leave now.”

Damian felt like a huge burden was lifted off his back. 

Still soaked in sweat, hebowed to the great general and left at top speed with his voice laced with happiness.

“Yes sir.”
