Mrs. Janet Robinson laughed out loud, causing the plantation workers to stare at them. “What are you doing here? Have the miller's family accepted you back? It's been a long time since I saw you.” She said with a scornful gaze on her face.Jason's fist was clenched in annoyance, but he did his best to calm his inner rage. He understands her more than anyone, she is among the people that hated him while he was working at the plantation.“Mrs. Janet, I heard you got promoted after so many years. congratulations,” he said with a little smirk on his face.“Yes, I deserve a promotion. I have worked hard enough to be promoted. Not like you who choose marriage over work.”Jason never chose marriage over business, he was ready to continue working at the plantation after the death of Mr. Eric and his marriage to Jessica but Mrs. Maria Miller was against it; Jason knows the business more than anyone at the plantation and it would not be good for her son, she saw him as a threat to her son Dan
When Mrs. Janet saw Danny she gained confidence and her mouth became sharp.“Sir, That foolish Jason came here with a man, they have been causing trouble.”“Where is Jason,” Danny BarkedJason ambles forward when he hears his name, a small smile curved on his lips.He stared at Jason from head to toe, he noticed Jason was well dressed and no longer with his dirty and stinky clothes.“What are you doing here and what did I hear you say,” Danny said.Jason collected a file from Robert and handed it over to Danny, his eyes were fixed on Jason. He collects the file and stares at it.“What is this?” Danny asked, he stared at Mrs. Janet who was standing behind him before shifting his gaze back to Jason.“I guess your father didn't tell you about it,you know how to read, so better read through the document.”“You think you can come here with fake documents to threaten me,” Danny said.“Your father Mr. Eric Miller took out a loan seven years ago, when the company was going bankrupt. You are
Jason was not moved by Danny’s threats, he had been used to Danny's threats.Jason stared at Mrs. Janet who was standing by the door with her head facing downward, he smiled contemptuously and ambled towards her.Mrs. Janet's knees were shaking in pain and her heart was rumbling. She was dumbstruck.She squeezed her alluring knees and slammed them against the floor, hot sweat-drenched from her forehead down to her ears. She felt like the ground should open for her to fall inside.She held the hem of his pants, Jason stared at her in dismay. Tears began to stream down her eyes slowly and mucus escaped her nose. “What is it,” he said furrowing his eyebrow his expression was extraordinarily disdainful“Please, don't sack me please.” She pleaded with her palms placed together.Her heart was intertwined with Bitterness and sadness.Seeing her knees down, Jason's heart swung in excitement. Earlier on she was cursing him and now she is begging for forgiveness.“Please, I promise to change m
The following morning, Jason was having a meeting with the shareholders of Trustworthy Finance. He was informing them of his intentions to build a restaurant in the developing area of the city. Some of the shareholders were not in support as it was risky for them due to the company’s budget while some agreed upon it as it would be a nice business. Those who were in support were bigger than those who were not in support of it. So they gave him a go-ahead. Jason was in the office going through some reports about a real estate company he would want to purchase the land for his new restaurant. Then a knock came on his door, he ordered the person to come inside, it was Mrs. Cynthia Konsa. “Good Morning Sir, I would like to discuss something with you.” “Okay, have a seat.” He said, stretching his hand towards the chair in front of his desk. “What do you want to discuss with me,” he said calmly. “Sir, it’s about the new project you intend to build.” “What about it, Mrs. Cynthia,” Jas
It was the biding day, Jason was dressed in a white suit, and he was seated with his father Mr. Benjamin in the living room, Mr. Benjamin observed the expression on his son's face. Getting the land will mean a lot to him, Jason wants to build a big restaurant in Winston-Salem. His first project since returning home.“Son, I heard you are planning on building a restaurant in the developing area of the city.” “Yes father,” he said softly.“Son, a restaurant is supposed to be built in a populated place, a place where there are so many residential areas such as a school, park, and a shopping center, not a place that is undergoing transformation.Jason sighed heavily and said, “Father, building a restaurant in a developing area can help you establish your presence early on and potentially capture loyal customers.”“It will also enable us to become an integral part of the community from an early stage of development.”Mr. Benjamin shook his head lightly as he listened to his son, he was h
“ 1 Billion Dollars,” The voice said again.Mr. Derrick's expression quickly switched from happiness to sudden pain. The man ambled towards the direction where there was light and it was none other than Mr. Benjamin Lewis, behind him was Robert Smith. Jason's eyes widened in shock at seeing his father and wondered why his father was there. with the hammer falling the Lewis Corporation won the bidding and got the land. Mr. Derrick was the first to leave the hall. His face was brimful in anger and frustration, Mr. Benjamin stared into Mr. Derrick's eyes.Jason was happy to see his father and knowing they had won the bidding, Mr. Benjamin beamed at his son. The crowd congratulated them for their win, hands clapping from different angles of the hall. After the bidding, the crowd started heading back to their various destinations.“Daddy, What are you doing here?”“Is that how to say thank you.” Mr. Benjamin said.“Thank you, Dad,” Jason said, smirking.“Robert and I decided to visit y
At the center of the room behind a massive mahogany desk, sits the mafia lord Oscar Morgan. A formidable figure dressed in an impeccably tailored suit. His steely gaze commanded respect as he observed the bustling around him.The air is heavy and the murmurs of whispered conversation, surrounding him are his loyal lieutenants.An awful smell filled the room. A cigarette is placed between his middle and index finger. Oscar Morgan puffs out smoke from his mouth, white smoke dancing in the air traveling to the ceiling. Mr. Derrick and Danny were both seated before the mafia lord Oscar Morgan. Danny coughed, the irritating smell filling his nostrils. He tried using his hand to cover his nose, Mr. Derrick gave him a cold look which made him resist his actions.Oscar's gravelly voice cut through the silence“Derrick, it's been a long time since you visited me. Why are you here?” His voice echoes through the room.“I am here to talk about business.” “What kind of business?” Oscar said wit
“Yes, Young master. I just got informed that Mrs. Maria Miller is awake but there is a problem.”“What problem?”“Master, she can't remember anything, she is unable to even recognize her children. The doctor said she would need time to recover.”“What!!” He groaned.Jason was furious, he couldn't believe what he just heard. “Is This her plan for her to escape work? How is that possible?” He muttered inwardly.“Roger, thanks for the information, just keep me updated” Jason hung the call, his facial expression switched from happiness to anger. Robert was about to turn towards Jason when he noticed something unusual through the car mirror, he turned and stared in that direction. He winked at the two of the guards behind him. “Follow me and you two protect the young master,” he said, giving them signs to separate and move in different directions.Jason turned as he observed Robert and the two other guards heading inside the construction site with guns in their hands.“Young master, yo
