He rose to his feet and adjusted his suit."What are you gonna do?" His grandfather asked."Nathan, when does the President wish to see Chairman Malcolm?""Mr President is quite smart and dangerous. He's waiting to see how we can handle this. He has asked Chairman Malcolm to join him for breakfast tomorrow""How many hours do we have until morning?""What are you trying to do, Jason? Don't do anything silly. I will handle this myself. I've been handling the Group all this while and I can assure you that this is just little compared to what I've faced. Leave this to me. I need you to go to South Korea and meet with some certain individuals" He scoffed in surprise. "What do you mean go to South Korea? You can send Nathan. I'm not leaving you here alone""Jason.... This is for our best interest, listen to him" Nathan whispered."Then you should go. It's for our best interest anyways""I have to deal with the President and while doing that, I need you to visit some certain people. Don't
That evening, Martins invited them for dinner. May was the most excited person as she kept laughing and smiling at the slightest joke or conversation."You did a great job, May" Martins commended."Yay, I did!" She exclaimed, spreading her arms wide opened.They all bursted out in laughter. "Eat your food, it's getting cold"She shook her head and poured herself some wine. "Tonight is too great for me to be eating, drinking myself till I die is the best way to celebrate this"Martins chuckled. "We are just getting started, how can you think of dying now?"She looked up to him with a smile. "Right?""We all did a great job. I mean, we pulled out Chairman Malcolm from his most comfortable mansion. He has never done that for a decade!" Kristine teased and they all roared out in laughter."This is more relieving than getting the RTK file" Martins suddenly added.May smiled. "Told ya, I was preparing a great surprise for you. I don't ever run out of options""May, I think you are the real
May was obedient to her father this time, she booked a ride back home. Arriving at her door, she meet George at her entrance, leaning on her wall. She chuckled in surprise. "What? What are you doing here? Are you homeless? Why will you come to my house and be sleeping? I told you I'm not a nice person, I might rape you!" She quarrelled, struggling to unlock her door. "Then do that when you're not wasted and do not reek of alcohol" "No way! You're awake?" "Why did you drink so much, hmm?" "You're overstepping your boundaries, George" she pushed the door opened and staggered. She fell on the couch and threw her bag on the table. "You are amazing for coming back home yourself, May" she commended herself. He smiled as he walked up to her. "Look at you looking all cute. It's a been a minute. What's up?" "It's strange that I suddenly feel hungry" "How about cup noodles? I brought some because I felt like you'll be hungry and I wanted us to have dinner tog
"What clips? What is she talking about?" Vivian quizzed. "No need to worry, darling. We got this" Kristine responded, sinking on her chair. "Wow! Really? Is this some sort of revenge on me?" "No darling. May asked that we kept this away from you" She turned and glared at May, expecting a response. "I noticed you became so overprotective of Jason, to be on a safe side I suggested we kept this away from you" "Mom!" "It's going to become news soon. You'll hear it from the bloggers and media" "What are y'all doing? We are in this together! We promised!" "But you broke the rules!" May retorted. "Vivian, these are only observations. We might be wrong and interpret your actions wrongly but we have to give you sometime as well" Kristine explained. "Huh? Is that all you have to say to me??" ******* "Welcome sir" Lily greeted with a bow in his room. He turned to Nathan. "When did she regain consciousness?" "The night you left"
"May Carlos!!!" Kristine screamed out, looking at her phone. "Jeez, you made me scared. What's wrong?" One of her sons probed "Where is Vivian?" "Maybe she stepped out or something, I don't know" he responded casually. ******* "I do not have any regrets saying yes to you that night. Oh, my, I've never been so happy in a long while, argh!" Martins expressed, holding a glass of whiskey. May laughed. "How come you're so smart?" She continued laughing. "Cheers" she whispered, hitting his glass with hers. "You were right about knowing Jason too well" "This is worth celebrating. We shook Jason" "You know what I crave now?" She shook her head innocently. "I wanna see you drunk. Gosh, it'll make me super excited seeing you drunk and celebrating over a bottle of whiskey" ****** "Where the hell is May Carlos?!" Kristine shouted as soon as Vivian walked into her room. "Hey, chill. What's going on?" "She's not taking my calls
May Carlos was so drunk that her head banged and her ear ringed while her eyes adjusted to the lightening in the room. The room was unfamiliar and she couldn’t remember entering there, laying on the bed and even wrapping herself in a white duvet in the first place, how did she get so heavily drunk over whiskey bottles with Martins? She remembered they had been too happy celebrating about uploading the recorded conversation between Kristen and Jason’s grandfather.She remembered the stir that it had caused on the internet, people asking if Chairman Malcom Yates wasn’t guilty why would he want to bride Kristen to take down the search warrant if his foundation in South Korea.Every time Martins commended May of being so smart to involve Kristen as a bait, May drank laughed and drank even more, had she thought about the implications of putting Kristen out there for the reporters and bloggers?Her phone buzz on the bed and she rolled to check the caller ID, it was Kristen, and already sh
Despite the fact that Kristen was Chairman Malcom’s old friend from the good old, before Jason was born and before things went sour between them. Jason wondered how she was able to find out about the Malc foundation that was far away in another country. Was it possible that chairman Malcom spilled it without him knowing? Malcom Yates was a man of few words and he chooses his words before speaking, the chances that what Nathan had said about Louise Verga spreading the news of Malc Foundation and its running for embezzling funds was might be true, but the thing is no one has heard from him for years now.Louise Verga the man Jason hadn’t laid eyes on yet but knew he was chairman Malcom’s closet friend who knew the inside and out of the foundation even Yates Consortium and it’s transactions before he betrayed chairman Malcom.The man who Nathan had said killed his parent, Jason had no concrete proof that Louise Vergas killed his parents but as soon as he did have those proof, he would f
George was still acting as the COO of the company and he didn’t fail to provide May with any news that she could use against Jason.“Orphanage homes?” May asked “I really don’t know what he is planning on doing this time around”“Find out then! You are the COO for a reason you deserve to know!”“Yes, but recently Jason has been making decisions without letting me know, do you think he is suspecting me? “You are the last person that Jason would suspect, you are the COO of his company and he trusts you, use it to your advantage!” May shouted over the phone “I think the orphanage home is nothing to bother about”“What do you mean by is nothing to bother about? Every damn move that Jason makes is something to bother about”George closed his eyes and pinched his nose, early that morning Jason had told him to comply a list of orphanage homes in the country, although he didn’t tell him what he was going to do with it and George dared not to ask. “George I trust you on this, find out why
