"Under no circumstance should Jane Newbold or anyone related to her step into this company. Do you understand? I don't care how you stop her from entering! That virus must never find its way in here!"

Jaxson instructed his guards at the company and they nodded.

"Yes, boss," they replied to him while he walked away.

It was his first day in office, and Jaxson had the feeling that Jane would arrive to cause trouble.

And he wasn't wrong!

Jane soon stepped down from a car and checked herself out in the mirror. She looked beautiful in her skimpy red dress and lipstick. 

Her father had given her a mission to seduce Jaxson Green, the new CEO, and get a sample for a DNA test. Vance wanted to ensure that Jaxson was truly Ezekiel's grandson, and his daughter was the perfect person to get the job done

"Stay back. We have orders not to let you or any of your family members into this building," a security guard said to Jane while she attempted to walk into Green Oil Incorporated.

She frowned.

"What do you mean? Orders from who?" She asked, crossing her arms.

"Orders from our new boss, Jaxson Green. You must leave, now," the security guard said to her. Jane scoffed.

"You've got to be kidding me. I'm going in, and there's nothing you can do to stop me," she said and attempted to walk inside, but the security guards pushed her back. 

Jane fell with a thud and yelped. 

"Stay back, miss! We have orders to use force to keep you away!" The guard yelled at her. 

As people stared at her, Jane flushed with embarrassment.

First, Jaxson exposed her as a klepto and now he's kept her out of his company?

"Why does he hate me so much?" Jane pondered. Then she shot a glare at the security man.

"I can pay you to let me in!" She said to him.

"Leave, miss. Now!" the guard replied to her and she scoffed.

"Your loss. Brute."

Jane walked away.

She began to approach her car when she saw Semira and Jaxson walking side by side. Jane's feral nature kicked in and she approached them.

"I can see that they're paying you well. You don't look as miserable as you did a week ago," she said to Jaxson who just kept staring at her, smiling as he did.

The smile haunted Jane, terrifying her. Then, she turned to Semira.

"You must be the new girlfriend. Did he tell you that he went to prison? He's a criminal. You better run away from this one. He'll taint your career," Jane said with pride.

Jaxson smiled again.

"Tell me, Jane, why are you out here? I suppose they didn't let you into the building, did they?" He asked her with a smirk. Jane frowned.

"How did you know about that?" She asked him. 

"I know everything that happens in this company now. The likes of you do not deserve to step foot into this company. You're like a stain, and you leave a mess wherever you go," Jaxson said to her. 

Jane gasped.

"How dare you? I'll get your boss to fire you! You stupid lowlife. Do you think that working here has suddenly made you somebody? You're nothing!" She screamed at him. 

Jaxson and Semira exchanged glances and laughed before they walked out on her. 

"Hey! Come back here. I'm still talking to you!!" She kept yelling while they approached a Porsche. 

As Jaxson opened the car door and got in with Semira, Jane's jaw dropped. Then, he drove off at high speed and she was puzzled.

What sort of position did Jaxson hold in the company that gave him access to a Porsche?

Then, she suddenly began to think that he may be able to give her access to Jaxson Green, the CEO. Maybe she'll just sleep with him to convince him to put in a good word.

"He's my ex after all. He can't resist me." Jane thought.

 Her thoughts were interrupted by the sound of her phone ringing. It was Damien. She picked up the phone.

"Finally sober?" She asked him, rolling her eyes 

"Guess what just came in! We have a book launch to attend tonight. Do you remember Sage Orphanage?" He asked her with so much excitement in his tone.

"The same orphanage that we are in the process of tearing down? Of course, I do!" She said to him.

"Apparently, one of them wrote a pathetic book and they've invited top-notch people to attend. Both of us included. I plan to show the millionaire world that I am still in the game. News of Jaxson Green firing me has spread already. I want to remind everyone who the fuck I am!" He yelled over the phone.

"Damien, I do not have a good feeling about this. Maybe think this through. We want to destroy this orphanage, not uplift it. Your money would go into its renovation and that is not what we want," Jane said to him and got into the car.

"Nonsense! How much will the books cost anyway? I just have to spend above all others and show everyone who's boss. What could go wrong?" He asked and she sighed.

Damien hung up before she could reply. Rolling her eyes, Jane drove off.

Meanwhile, in their car, Jaxson and Semira discussed.

"You've been invited to the book launch too, by Sage Orphanage. Are you going to attend?" Semira asked him.

Jaxson smiled.

"Why will I not attend a book launch that I orchestrated?" He asked her and she arched a brow.

"I don't understand sir. What do you mean?" She asked him.

"I reached out to the orphanage. They're in danger of shutting down due to Damien shutting off all of their resources. He wants the land for himself. I'm going to make sure he refunds all that he owes them. Even more," Jaxson said.

"What's your plan?" Semira asked Jaxson. He gazed at her.

"Don't worry, Semira. You'll see," he replied and kept driving. Semira wondered what would happen next.

For the first time in her life, she couldn't predict the future.

Despite bursting in, Jane still couldn't see his face. It was like every attempt she made resulted in abject failure."I will not leave until you've answered my questions!" Jane said, breathing very hard. "You can go," Jaxson gestured to the secretary who walked out of the office, shooting glares at Jane."What are you doing here?" Jaxson asked Jane."I want to know why you hate me so much. It doesn't make sense. Men want me! Why do you believe that you are different?" She asked. Jaxson chuckled, and that hurt her pride so much."Even now, you still think that everything is about you," he said to her. Jane frowned."I don't understand

    "How could you be so incompetent? How is it that every time that I give you a task, you somehow manage to fuck it all up?" Vance yelled at Reptile while they watched the news from his hideout.He didn't expect things to go that way. Vance was certain that he had created the master plan to finally destroy Jaxson once and for all. How did it all go to shit?"Sir, I can assure you that I did everything you asked. It's like Jaxson is malignant. I wonder if he uses some charm or something. It's like the entire universe is on his side!" Reptile bemoaned.Vance walked over to him and punched him in the face.

I told you to kill that brat when he was a baby, you didn't. I told you to assassinate him in his office, you failed. I told you to kill him while he caught our spy. Guess what happened? You failed, again!"Vance

    "No! You can't do this to me and my company! Please, do not cancel our contract. Please!!" The CEO of Lion Group begged Jaxson while Jaxson kept a straight face."When those rumors spread about me, you threatened my secretary that you'd terminate the contract if I didn't fix things. That shows that you do not see me as a competent person. My company can survive without your Group. And it seems as if you've forgotten that I am the one doing you a favor here by signing a contract with you!" Jaxson replied.The CEO of Lion Group shuddered. Jaxson wasn't wrong. He had said those things, but he never expected Jaxson to terminate his contract. He didn't think Jaxson was brave enough to do it."You can't replace me, Jaxson. You cannot find another company that will do justice to that job like I would!" The CEO snapped, trying to coerce Jaxson back to rescind his words. Jaxson laughed at the comment, rocking the pen in his hand while he fixed his gaze on the CEO."I have already replaced you

He was furious, and although he had hatred for rich people, he saw Jaxson as the peak of them all.And so, that hatred developed into intense apathy.Just then, the door to his office opened and Semira stepped inside. She wore a frown on her face, and the anger in her soul was palpable. And yes, Semira was an old friend of his."Semira. This is a surprise. You didn't tell me that you were coming," he said to her and gestured for her to have her seat, but she didn't."What are you doing, Parker? What's all this? Why did you accuse Jaxson of those terrible things which were unprofessional of you?" She asked him and Detective Parker frowned."I do not understand what you mean," he tried to shake it off but she scoffed."Oh, you know exactly what I mean! You are picking a war with Jaxson. Why? Is it because of what happened to us? Jaxson's family is innocent," she said but Detective Parke

I'm so sorry."Jane's hands clenched into fists. "I went to him, poured my heart out, and he just...dismissed me. Like I meant nothing."Rachel's eyes widened. "What did he say exactly?"Jane's words spilled out in a torrent. "He said I used him, manipulated him. That he wouldn't be fooled again. Foolish? Me? Ha!"Rachel's gentle touch on Jane's arm was a stark contrast to Jane's seething emotions."Jane, maybe you should take a step back. Reevaluate—"Jane's fury boiled over. "No! You don't understand.

But Marcus has been proven stubborn, and Jaxson knew it was because of the silly rumors about him that spread weeks earlier."What does Thompson want?"

She flashed a saccharine smile at the officer behind the desk, her eyes gleaming with malice.What Parker just told her still made her uneasy, and the shock had not worn off her. But she had another plan to safeguard herself.It doesn't matter whether Jaxson was engaged or not. She had to get him back, and she was confident that he would.Jane smiled again.

    "Jaxson Brown. Why have you called? Have you called me to float because let me tell you, you're late!" Parker snapped at Jaxson who just chuckled. "Detective. I called to extend my sympathy. Your career is over as we speak," Jaxson said to him."And whose fault is that? Huh? You leaked everything. How did you even do it? How did you get your hands on those information? I don't understand it," he said to Jaxson who Chuckled again. The winds of change had blown, and Jaxson had won."I'll advise you, Parker, to change your ways. You may think that you are discreet but I assure you there are people out there who are even more curious. Change your ways so that you will not find yourself in prison," Jaxson said to him. Parker frowned."What do you mean?" He asked. "What else do you know?" He asked Jaxson. Jaxson sighed."Isn't it obvious? I left out details of that particular murder that you committed. Didn't you observe it, Parker? That it wasn't mentioned at all?" Jaxson asked and Parke

He suddenly became self aware as he walked past the cops glaring at him with their scrutinizing eyes. The thing about cops was that they had a way of breaking a person with their glares alone and Parker knew all too well."Hey, what's going on? Why is everyone looking at me like I just returned from space?" He asked a rookie who looked around with caution before he replied. Parker could see the hesitation in the rookie's face.He didn't want to talk to him. "Look, sir, I don't want any trouble. Just leave me alone," the rookie replied and tried to walk away but Park

Jaxson frowned as he picked up the call."Mr Green. Or should I say, Mr Brown?" Detective Parker said from the other side of the phone and Jaxson smiled. The Detective was getting on his nerves."Detective Parker, why did you call?" He asked Parker."I called to let you know that I figured it out. I must say, Mr Brown, you did an excellent job hiding your real identity. I'm certain it was for a purpose. Isn't that why we all do what we do?" "What do you want? I know you didn't just give me a call to say this." Jaxson asked. He was setting a trap for the Detective but Parker didn't know. He chuckled with amusement and then sighed.

He asked Vance who crossed his arms."Why have you arrested me? You have no proof that I did anything wrong," Vance replied to Detective Parker. Parker Chuckled and sighed."You know what, Vance?

    "Alright people, wrap it up. Let's go!" Scott yelled orders at his goon immediately after he dropped the call with Jaxson. He was glad that he could finally repay the debt he owed Jaxson. Years back, when Jaxson was still trying to make ends meet, he worked as a bouncer in Scott's club.One night, there was an attack and Jaxson saved Scott's life. And Scott promised Jaxson that he would repay him back someday. And that day had come."Boss, there's someone here to see you," someone said to Scott and he frowned."Who the fuck is it?" He groaned. He didn't like disturbances."I think it's a cop," the informant said to Scott and his eyes lit up."A cop? What is he doing here? We settle the police weekly. They have no business with us," he blurted out but the informant shrugged his shoulders"Send him in," he added. The informant left the room and soon returned with Detective Parker. Scott faked a smile. He was not pleased."Officer. This is a surprise. I don't believe we still have busi
