“Congratulations sir,” Elena said with her voice barely above a whisper.“Thank you, Elena,” Jason replied softly.Elena moved back and forth at her boss’s office while trying to arrange the documents in the drawer. She had words in her mind that she would want to tell Jason but she was scared of how he would react.She continued to stare at him, Until Jason’s gaze met with her, she shyly moved away from his eyes.“Elena, is there anything you wish to say,” Jason asked.She drew a deep breath, she was struggling with her words inside, and she didn’t know how to start. Elena nervously scratched her hair. “Young master, I….I.. want..” she sputtered.Jason stopped what he was doing and had his eyes fixed on her, “Elena, you don’t need to rush your words. You need to calm down and tell me what’s on your mind.” He said softly.He grasped she was still not comfortable around him, Jason kept a mild expression while staring at her. Elena breathed heavily. “I want to ask you if I could retur
Elena nodded her head, Jason unhooked the seatbelt and stepped out of the car, She turned to see what was set to happen.She knew he was trained by her father, but it was the first time she would witness him in physical combat with the gang of five. Elena had doubts in her mind, she had to say some silent prayers and took her phone, she didn’t hesitate to call Loki.Meanwhile, Jason moved forward, stepping away from the car, He maintained a casual outlook.The gang chuckled uncontrollably when they saw him, Cedric being the gang leader, ambled forward. He stares at Jason sardonically.“Wow, You came alone. I know you would take the route, perfect timing.” He sneered, Jason wasn’t moved or bothered by the men standing in front of him. This got Cedric a bit surprised.“Do you think you can handle the five of us, we are not just some ordinary office workers but we are trained martial artists.” He said sarcastically.“We can give you time to think about it, you either surrender and allow
The cold gleam of a knife appeared in his hand, pressing against her neck. Elena’s eyes widened in fear, her breath hitching while she struggled with the iron grip.“Let go of her, I want you to let her go now,” Jason warned, his voice echoing.Cedric sneered, his eyes darting between his fallen men and Jason. “What if I don’t let go, what would you do? Do you think you can just walk away after what you did? Never, you either surrender or I kill her.” He said with his voice brimming with anger.Elena’s eyes widened in shock and fear, her heart was pounding fast in fear and uncertainty.“Please, help me. I don't want to die.” She said, Jason inhaled and exhaled, he felt the weight of the situation coursing through his veins. He assessed the situation, he knew he had to act quickly and decisively. He locked eyes with Elena while giving her a subtle wink. Giving her a silent signal, he has seen her father give to her during her self-defence training. Elena furrowed her face with und
Jason and the police rushed towards the location as expected, the police had parked at a distance to avoid being noticed. They divided themselves and had the place surrounding them. “I will go with him, you will wait and come when I give a signal,” Jason said with an authoritative tone.“But, Mr. Lewis. You don’t know if they came with more men. What if something happens to you,” The chief police officer said with concern.Jason stared at him closely, he grasped what the officer was trying to say. He could perceive his inner spirit wanted him to go only with Cedric, “I will go with him, just keep your eyes open on my signal.” He said, with his voice barely above a whisper.The Chief police officer sighs deeply. Jason dragged Cedric who was handcuffed towards the entrance of the place. “Let’s go, I want to see your master. He made a mistake sending a loser like you to confront me.” He said with his eyes blazing in fury.Meanwhile, Johnson Camino and Lawrence Nelson were inside with
Jason walked into his father’s mansion with Elena, Mr. Benjamin invited his son over to spend time with him and also informed him he had a surprise for him. He found his father seated at the long, elegant dining table. Mr. Benjamin beamed when he saw his son, Jason. A lady was warmly seated to his right, her smile warm and inviting, Jason noticed the tension and nervousness in her eyes. She was in her early forties, her dark hair was styled in soft waves, and she wore a sophisticated dress that accentuated her graceful figure. “Come on, son. I have been waiting for you. I am glad you could make it.” Mr. Benjamin said, moving to embrace his son. Jason returned the hug, but he felt uncomfortable with the lady who was seated beside his father. “Of course, Dad. Thank you for inviting us.” He said. “Good morning, Master Benjamin,” Elena said. Mr. Benjamin didn’t only invite his son but he instructed his son to come with Elena, he didn’t state the reason but told him it was for a
They both perceived footsteps coming towards them, so they had to switch the conversation and were engrossed in laughter. The door swung open, and Mr. Benjamin walked into the room and found Lovina and her son, Patrick. “What are you two discussing about? Seems like I am missing out on something good.” He said with a smile.Patrick and his mother, Lovina beamed at each other, while Patrick mouthed. “No, Dad. You came at the right time.” Patrick said.Mr. Benjamin stared at Lovina, who got up where she was seated and moved closer to him.“Patrick, how was your trip? Have you gotten a chance to meet with your stepbrother, Jason?”“My trip was fine, I just got home now and I haven’t met him,” he replied with a smile playing across his lips.Mr. Benjamin nodded his head slowly. “Okay, don’t worry. You will get to meet with him tomorrow at the office.” “Hope you are ready to take part in the family business,” he questioned, Patrick drifted his gaze to his mother, who shook her head, be
“Well, What I am trying to say is that. Patrick is your stepbrother. He is Lovina’s son.” He said.Jason felt the air had been sucked out of the room, “Stepbrother.” He asked.He looked between His father and Patrick, he could see the smile playing on both lips. “I didn’t know Lovina had a son.” He blurted outMr. Benjamin nods, his expression serious but gentle. He remembered disagreeing with his son the last time he introduced Patrick’s mother to him, so he didn’t know how Jason would react.He wasn’t sad, he had agreed with his father’s decision.“Yes, she had a son. He just returned, and he is through with his studies. I wanted you two to meet properly.” Mr. Benjamin replied firmly.Jason turned towards Patrick, he noticed how he looked at him disdainfully. “ You are my stepbrother. I was not expecting it.” “Yes, we are stepbrothers,” Patrick retorted.Mr. Benjamin inhales. “I was hoping you and Patrick could get to know each other. We are family now and we must stick together.”
The plane landed smoothly in Miami, and Jason stepped out of the airport, taking a moment to savour the warm, humid air that was so different and cool,Jason took a deep breath, feeling a sense of excitement and anticipation for the day ahead.A black Ford SUV awaited Jason and Loki, the driver standing with a polite smile. “Mr. Lewis, Welcome to Miami,” he greeted, opening the door for Jason with his head bent further “Thank you,” Jason said, as he slid into the back seat and settled in comfortably. The driver closed the door and moved swiftly into the driver’s seat, he was joined by Loki Spencer. Starting the engine and merging into the light morning traffic.As they drove through the city, Jason watched the scenery change from the bustling downtown area to the more serene coastal roads, palm trees lined the streets, swaying gently in the breeze.“Young Master, You have a call from Master,” Loki said politely, as he handed Jason the iPad.Jason picks up the call, turning on the vi
