"Okay, now you can be convinced that this woman is not to be trusted," Caleb said as they watched her from where they stood.
"What do you mean?" Jason asked, slightly irritated by what Caleb was saying.
"The principal told us that it was an emergency with her son and here she is, having a swell time with her so-called sick son," Caleb said.
"That does not make her a terrible person, Caleb," Jason snapped. "She probably had a reason for doing this.
"Well, I just hope that your benefit of the doubt can go all the way to accommodate other secrets that she probably might be hiding from you," Caleb said, grabbing a packet of juice for himself from the shelf.

Jason knew that it was a dangerous game he was playing, but he was willing to go ahead with it. He wanted to know her and the only thing on his mind was that she was giving him the audience he needed. "So Damian," she began. "How did you get my number?" She asked. He slipped his hand in his pocket as he moved about his bedroom. "Let us just say that I saw you, I liked you and I went over and beyond to get to speak to you," he replied, surprised at his smooth flow of words. She brought that out of him, and he was pleased. "Maybe if you had spoken to me in person, I would have appreciated it more," she said. Jason let out a small laugh as he remembered the first day he spoke to her. She was so mean to him, which was probably because of how her mood was on that day.He spoke at length to her and told her that he was an architect and did not live in her city. She was impressed at his achievements and said that she would like to see some of his designs.If he had not glanced at the t

Alex was at Jason's house before the break of dawn for the work he had for the day. Jason told him that he would not be having so much time after school and that it would be better if they did their work in the morning before he headed for school.It meant that he had to wake up early. He had not been having enough sleep because he spent most of his time speaking with Beverly over the phone. It was weird to sit in her class and not smile at her.She had noticed him smile at her on two occasions, but she was not responsive. She probably thought that he was just some keen student who liked her teaching.They were soon done with their work, and Jason began to get ready for school. Alex helped him order some breakfast, and soon, they were on their way to school.Alex looked at Jason from the side of his eyes as he typed furiously and excitedly on his phone, like he was hungry for something.He had noticed for a fortnight now, that Jason was always on his phone. It was only fair that he

"Your father asked to see you," Alex informed Jason as they took a flight back home from one of their hotels. He had traveled out of town as they intended to establish a hospitality group in one of their new hotels. He wanted to handle the project himself because he was not sure that he could trust their competence to handle it. Alex even thought that it was going to be a good decision for him to handle it. He was exhausted from the meeting and all he wanted to do was to sleep, but the mere thought of meeting with his father frightened him. "Does he know about Beverly?" Jason asked Alex."You call her by her first name now?" Alex retorted, a bit surprised."Well, I met her first as Beverly and not as my professor.""That does not mean that you would go cordial on her that fast now that you know that she is your professor," Alex said. Jason was irritated. He was tired of everyone telling him what to do with Beverly. As far as he was concerned, they were in a good place, and he l

When Jason saw Beverly in school the next day and waved at her, he wished that she knew that she had seen him just as she wanted. He had told her last night that he would soon make it into the country as he was just away for business abroad. She had agreed that they would meet up in the summer. Jason agreed to it. He had a long time before summer to think of what to say to her. She did not wave back at him when he waved, and he sensed that her countenance was not right. He decided that he was eventually going to find out, but she was not willing to give him a chance to speak to her.It was soon time for her class, and she was still not in a good mood. She tried to avoid his eyes and focus on her teaching. Not once did she bother to glance his way, and it was disturbing to him."Did you both have a fight?" Caleb asked as he noticed the tension between them."I'm confused," Jason said. "Are you sure that she has not found out that you are Damian?" Caleb asked."I don't think so, b

Jason followed after Beverly. Since she told him off, he had not seen her in school for two days and he had been bothered about her. He asked Caleb about it and he said that the principal informed them that she was absent and had not given her any reason.He called her phone immediately and when she answered, she sounded as though she was troubled about something."Didn't you go to work?" He asked her."I did not. I had something to do," she replied curtly with a demeanor that was not hers. He knew that something was wrong, but he wanted to be told when she was ready. He did not want to press her. "What was it that you had to do?" He asked her calmly. She was quiet for a while, as though she would not speak to him again. "Damian," she began. "There is something that I need to tell you and you may hate me for this," she said."What is it?" He asked her sharply, knowing within himself that whatever it was, he was willing to forgive her. Just then, he heard the voice of a little boy

As the day of the party drew closer, Jason was suddenly nervous. He was not sure he was ready to become chairman with the livelihood of over seventy thousand employees in his hands. Preparations were going on, and their house was a beehive of activities. His father wanted everything to be perfect, but Emilia took the work into her own hands. She hired ten event planners, excluding their designers. She hired a team of designers to style her, her husband, and her children. She was not thinking about Jason, who was the star of the occasion, or she just wanted to ignore him. He had met her son on two separate occasions, and they had been cool with each other, but she was not in support of their relationship. She always scolded him when she saw her son talking to him, but Jacob, her son, thought that Jason was a good role model, juggling work and school together.On the other hand, Miranda, her daughter, had a silly crush on him, and she had approached him on one occasion and told him

Jason soon ended his speech and the whole room roared into applause for him. His father was the first person that came to hug him once he was done. There was a proud smile on his face as he introduced him to his top business partners, people that he had probably seen before, from all walks of life.Throughout the process of exchange of pleasantries, his eyes scanned the room for Beverly. He was watching her every move, including when she grabbed a glass of champagne from a glass that a waiter carried. His father's friends could not stop introducing him to their daughters. It was as though they were sampling different types of meat before him for him to choose. He was irritated but the smile on his face did not disappear.Once he had done as his father wanted and the guests were busy with their discussions, he walked up to where Beverly stood."Well, if it is not the youngest richest businessman in the state," she began as she glanced in his direction."I did not expect to see you

Jason was taken aback by Cecilia's presence. He knew that her parents were quite influential but he did not know them in person. This coincidence was one that he was not prepared for but he did not let the smile disappear from her face. "Jason, I hear that you and Cecilia go to the same college," her father began."I guess I have seen her face once or twice in school," Jason replied. "You know, I don't need to have so many friends at school because of work," he added and they all laughed. "Can you believe that Cecilia was once dating a broke boy that could barely take care of her?" Her father continued. There was an amused expression on Jason's face as he looked at Cecilia who seemed a bit embarrassed at that moment."Everyone rises someday," Jason said. "You should not have underestimated the young man," he added."I guess that is too late now because she ended things with him, and she has been saying that she likes you a lot," her father continued."At what point do you open you
