Jason White: The Consortium's Dominant

Chapter Four: Different from before

Lisa froze. She waited nervously for Jason's touch. But instead, his fingers brushed her shoulders as he picked a strand of her hair and pushed it back.

"Thank you," She muttered, as her gaze went to her food.

While eating, they chatted about the company and a few private stuff.

Lisa noticed that Jason's glass was empty. She stood up and was about to pour wine, when the hem of her nightgown got stuck by the edge of the table, revealing her breathtaking thighs.

She tried to get it unstuck, but instead, she knocked a glass of water over, spilling some of it on Jason.

"I'm so sorry," She said as she grabbed a napkin and handed it to him.

"Don't worry about it, let's just continue eating," Jason said.

Lisa nodded as she watched Jason dry himself with the napkin.

There was an awkward silence in the room.

"About the deal with Mr. Richardson, the Five Billion Dollars has been transferred, so we now have a majority of the shares, and with time we will have control over the company," Lisa said, breaking the silence.

Jason smirked.

"Well done, Lisa; I didn't expect it to be done so fast—and in a day too. I'm impressed" He said.

Hearing Jason praise her, Lisa's face went slightly red. 

"Thank you, Sir," She replied.

She hoped that Jason wouldn't notice the change in her complexion under the dim light, and he didn't.

"Also," Jason said in a firm but calm tone. "Whenever we are alone, you can drop the honorifics. I'm not used to it."

Lisa was shocked. She didn't think Jason, the boss of the number one company in Alderfall would say that.

She smiled as she leaned forward.

"Oh really, so tell me, Sir, what would you like me to address you by?" She asked in a low whisper, her voice sounding flirtatious.

Jason smiled.

"Where will I be sleeping tonight?" He asked, ignoring Lisa's seductive teasing. 

His silver eyes stared at her, making her blush once more.

"The guest room is downstairs, while I sleep in the master's bedroom, which is upstairs," She said, stressing the place where she slept.

"Okay then," Jason said as he stood up. "I'll be sleeping in the guest room. Take me there."

Lisa nodded as she stood. She took Jason to the guestroom. 

When Jason got in, he was about to shut the door when something came to his mind.

"Lisa!" He called out to her.

"Yes, Sir—I mean Jason," She replied.

Jason smiled.

"I need you to arrange a car for me, something ordinary. I don't want to be noticed. And I'll be needing it tomorrow morning," He said.

Lisa nodded. Before she could say anything, he shut the door, not noticing the frown on her face.

She walked away feeling disappointed.

***

Jason got out of the room, already freshened up and dressed for the day. 

Lisa had left a suit and other things he would need in front of his room. He was shocked to see that the suit fit him perfectly.

When he got to the dining room, breakfast was already laid out on the table.

"Good morning, Jason," She greeted as she set her eyes on him. 

"Good morning," He replied.

He noticed that the food on the table was meant for only one person. 

Before he could ask about it, Lisa noticed and spoke up.

"There is a board meeting holding at Richardson Group soon, so I have to leave early. I'll have breakfast later," She explained.

Jason nodded.

She handed him a car key. "This is the most ordinary car I could find under the company's name," She said.

As Jason took the key, she smiled and bowed down.

"Goodbye, Sir," She said, and then she straightened up and walked away.

Jason couldn't help but admire her. Not only was she good at her job, but she was also beautiful, having curves in the right places, making her desirable.

When he was done with breakfast, he went out to find a Limited Edition BMW parked in front of the villa.

Jason drove straight for the Courthouse. Just as he had guessed, Eloise and Lloyd were already there hours before the time.

They were shocked when they saw him coming down from the car. They couldn't help but wonder where he got it from.

Without saying anything to each other, Jason and Eloise went in to finally get the divorce.

The moment Eloise stepped out of the courthouse, she ran to Lloyd. They both started cheering and kissing each other.

Jason clapped, pulling their attention towards him.

"So I'm guessing I should be hearing the wedding bells soon, right?" He asked.

Eloise rolled her eyes.

"That's none of your business, Jason, so why don't you just do us a favor and leave," She said.

"That isn't a way to treat your future wedding guest, don't you agree?" He asked, moving close to them.

"What makes you think we would invite a nobody like you to our wedding?" Lloyd asked in an angry tone.

"You might call me a nobody, but yet Eloise's grandfather chose me to marry her and not you. So doesn't that make you more of a nobody than I am?" Jason taunted.

 Lloyd got furious.

When his bodyguards saw him flare up, they moved towards Jason, surrounding him.

"That's enough, Lloyd. He doesn't deserve wasting our time" She said, holding onto his arm.

"You are right, baby. " He said.

Glaring at Jason, they got into the car and drove off.

Jason returned to the villa, he realized that it was a lot bigger than he imagined. It had a garden, a swimming pool, and even a parking lot that was similar to Central Park.

As he was strolling, someone yelled.

"Stay back! Who are you?!" A guy dressed as a bodyguard barked at him.

Something else caught his attention.

An older man and a young woman were standing behind the bodyguard..
