Jason Grey’s Inevitable Rise to the Top Chapter Seventy-One - Recording device
It was now afternoon, and Jason had spent every minute since he hung up the call checking his phone to see if Reuben had sent him anything.As he was checking for the umpteenth time, he heard a knock on the door. He hesitated before telling the person to come in; he still wasn't comfortable about the incident with Hannah, and he tried to write it off as Hannah just being nosy and wanting to snoop around in his things. If that were the case, then he would have nothing to worry about because none of his belongings were here. But he had a nagging feeling that something else was going on, and he would have to confront her about it later.There was another louder knock on the door, which bore through Jason’s thoughts. He breathed a sigh of frustration. “You can come in,” he said reluctantly.The door opened to reveal Miriam. Jason struggled to stop himself from audibly groaning. He did not like her the most out of the three women. It wasn't hard for him to notice that they all revered her
Jason Grey’s Inevitable Rise to the Top Chapter Seventy Two - Like mother like daughter
The sun had begun to set in the sky. Jason had ripped the pages off of the notebook that he and Amelia used to communicate and threw them away.Now he and Amelia were lying in bed, pretending to be asleep, to wait and see if anyone would come for the phone. Both of them lay beside each other, their breaths slow and even.Minutes passed like hours as they waited. Just as Jason was beginning to doubt if anyone would show up, he heard a knock on the door. Following the knock, he heard the soft creaking of the door. His heartbeat quickened, but he kept his breathing steady. Through his half-closed eyes, he saw the person enter the room. It was Hannah.She tiptoed into the room, trembling slightly as she did. Her movements were clumsy, not like those of someone who was calculated. She reached the bookshelf where she had placed the phone, and in a quick motion, she snatched it, the phone nearly falling as she did. She checked if her clumsiness had woken them up, but she found that their ey
Jason Grey’s Inevitable Rise to the Top Chapter Seventy Three - Recordings and Emails
Going into the bathroom and locking the door, Jason felt his anticipation rise as he prepared to go through everything Reuben sent to him.The first was a voice recording. Jason lowered the volume on his phone as low as possible. He pressed play, then placed the speaker against his ear.“To be honest, it feels freeing to admit all of this,” he heard a feminine voice say. He assumed it was Monica.The woman continued, “Miriam was the one who leaked the video to the press. And you know that I wouldn't say such a thing without proof. I'll send you the emails and everything, but I'd like to remain anonymous.”Reuben replied, “Of course, you know I'd make sure of it.”“Good because I don't just have emails as proof; I have a recording of her admitting that she did it!” Monica said, her voice tinged with bitterness. “I don't know why she did it, though. I kept on asking myself how someone could be so callous, but I never found the answer. I mean, doing that to your own daughter.”It's terri
Jason Grey’s Inevitable Rise to the Top Chapter Seventy Four - The Study
As Jason entered the study, the first thing he searched for were cameras. He checked all the corners of the walls but didn’t find any, which relieved him of some of the tension he felt.His initial plan was to confront Miriam face-to-face about the issue and what her true intentions were, but now that she was not home, he figured that the next best thing would be to check the study for anything that could lead him to the answers that he was looking for.The space in the study was more expensive than he had thought it would be. From the ceiling hung an ornate chandelier. On the walls, there were mahogany bookshelves and bookcases that were filled with leather-bound tomes and a wide range of books, antiques, and artifacts.There was a big oak desk in the centre of the room, with papers and files sprawled all over it. Right behind the desk was a chair with velvet cushioning.Jason started his inspection with the bookcases and shelves. He scanned through them, making sure to put whatever
Jason Grey’s Inevitable Rise to the Top Chapter Seventy-Five - Seeds of doubt
“What are you doing here?” Hannah shrieked, “You’re not supposed to be in here, sir.”"Hannah, what’s that? What’s going on?” he heard Miriam say, followed by the sound of her heels against the floor as she walked to the study.Thinking fast, Jason pressed his finger to his lips, signalling for Hannah to be quiet. He took a book from the shelf and opened it, pretending to be immersed in it."Hannah, have you gone deaf? I asked you a question." Miriam snarled as she reached the door of the study. Her gaze darted inside the study, where she saw Jason standing and looking into a book. “Can you tell me why you’re in my private study?” Miriam said, her voice cold.Closing the book, Jason looked up at Miriam and said, “I’m sorry. I was so bored, so I looked around the house and saw the study. The door wasn’t locked, so I assumed that I could come in.” Jason said his tone was calm, a sharp contrast to the rapid beating of his heart.Miriam’s eyes narrowed slightly, her brows furrowing in sus
Jason Grey’s Inevitable Rise to the Top Chapter Seventy-Six - Wedding Day Part 1
Jason paced back and forth in his room, his phone pressed against his ear as he gave Reuben specific instructions. “Make sure the file is ready to be sent as soon as I give the signal,” he directed, his voice steady despite the urgency of the situation.“You’ve got it," Reuben responded“And make sure my special guest gets here on time.”“The car is en route as we speak.” “Good, things need to go just as planned.”“As you wish." Reuben said, “Good luck, James Bond,” he added. Jason rolled his eyes and stuffed the phone in the pocket of the elegant suit. As he looked at himself in the mirror, he grimaced at the suit and what it represented. The day of the wedding had come. He peered through the window and saw the chairs arranged outside, along with the little altar. He breathed a sigh before stepping out of the room.As he walked through the hallway, he heard Miriam’s voice through the closed door of her room: “I promised you, didn’t I?" It’ll get done, damn it!” she yelled.It see
Jason Grey’s Inevitable Rise to the Top Chapter SeventySeven - Wedding Day Part 2
Rose’s appearance set off a metaphorical bomb in the room. “No, it can't be you,” Miriam said, her voice barely above a whisper.They all stared at her like she was a ghost that manifested in front of them. No one moved; it was as if they feared that if they moved, Rose would disappear.“I don't believe it... Is it really you?” Rachel voiced out.Rose nodded. “Believe it, it's me, sister.” She smiled at her sister.Rachel couldn't control herself anymore; she rushed to Rose and hugged her tightly. “It's really you... You're here; you're really here.”“Aunty!” Camila finally found her voice, and she joined the embrace, hugging both her mother and her aunt.Biting back tears, Rose embraced them back, saying, “I'm sorry I ran away, but I'm back now.” she said.She released herself from their embrace and then walked over to Amelia. ''Baby,” she said as he placed a gentle hand on her cheek, her voice shaky. “I'm back, and I'm never leaving again, I swear." She hugged Amelia, and Amelia me
Jason Grey’s Inevitable Rise to the Top Chapter Seventy Eight - Last words
"Aaaaah,” the women let out gut wrenching screams as Miriam's limp body fell to the ground in a pool of her own blood.One of the officers crouched down to check Miriam’s pulse. “She has a pulse; she's still alive.” The officer said, “Get medical assistance here now!” The officer barked into his radio.Amelia clung to Jason like a little girl, her tears staining his suit jacket as she sobbed into it. “She..she…” She tried to form a sentence, but she choked on the words."Oh, my love,” Rose said with tears streaming down her face as she comfortingly stroked Amelia’s arm.Rachel and Camila were also a sobbing mess, holding each other for support as they cried.The paramedics arrived at the scene swiftly, pushing through the crowd of officers and family members to reach Miriam. They knelt beside her, working quickly to stabilise her condition.Jason stood in shock, watching them carry her away as he absentmindedly stroked Amelia’s shoulder. He did not expect things to end this way. He wa
