“What is going on, Jay?” Mia asked just as they were about to say their goodbyes. She had called to speak with the kids, but Jason got home while they were at it and they had their discussions as Jason went into his bedroom to undress.“What do you mean by that?” he asked, though he sort of had an idea of what she meant.“Between you and your wife of course. She was also so cheery when we chatted and all. I thought I was the one overthinking it, but then mom mentioned it the other day too. What is going on, brother? Anything happened between you guys?” Mia asked.“You mean apart from the fact that we are busy with the acquisitions and this business deal with Khan Maal? She is the company's COO, sisto, and just like every one of us, she is busy too,” Jason said with a smile. “Nothing is going on, Mia. I can assure you that I will be the first person to know if something is wrong with my wife,” he said firmly.“Are you lying to me, Jason?” Mia asked.Oh, for God’s sake. I have got enoug

“Working late?” Victoria asked as she ducked her head into Millicent’s office. Millicent looked up from the file she had been staring at nonstop without making a head of it since she got back to the office. Her face became passive when she saw that it was Victoria. “What do you want?” she asked. “I am sure someone elsewhere can get it done for you,” she said. “Ouch, that hurts, Mrs Monroe,” Victoria said as she came into the office fully. “In case the handwriting was not clear enough on the wall, that is my subtle way of saying you are not welcome in my office. I am sure you do not have an appointment with me” Millicent said baldly. “Well, double ouch. But since I have a thick skin as you have noticed, I would simply ignore that and lend my very cooperative ear since you look like you could talk to someone right now” Millicent scoffed as she leaned back in her chair “And what makes you think I will talk to someone like you?” “Well, maybe because I know that you don’t really have

Disappointed that he had not been able to catch up with Millicent as he had expected, Liam was drinking at O’Toole’s bar while having his eyes on one of the perky waitresses, whose breasts were almost spilling out of the tight-fitting uniform. “I will be hitting that before the night is over” he muttered as he caught the waitress's eyes again before he sipped his drink. “Yeah, slut. I know you want some of this big daddy” he muttered with a leer, his eyes travelling down her cleavage as she bent over to serve another table. Oh, yeah. That perky ass would be getting it. “First of all, eww” he turned around to see Victoria talking to him as she took the next stool beside him. She trailed her fingers across his shoulder before she placed her bag on the counter and continued “Second of all, ain’t you supposed to be the cute, little, reformed, cousin for our dear CEO? What the heck are you doing here drowning in…what poison do you have there?” she said as she peered into his cup “Do I ev

“Oh, you know I am right, Liam" Victoria said, pleased by his reaction. She continued."You hate your cousin even as you fawn over him and sell him this cock and bull story of needing a hands-on experience of how to run a company. You can’t help but wish he would just fall over and die one day. Well, actually, I am sure that you wouldn’t mind ensuring that happen. And yes, you wish his tasty, little wife is that waitress in that tight, little dress so ready to be at your beck once you call. I know you know that I am right, Liam. The question is, will you admit it?” Liam shook his head as he gave her an intense look. “And I think classy ladies don’t have the crazies. Well, I am clearly wrong” “Oh, I see that you are taking the denial route. That is cool too, you know. Although, what will not be cool is if your dear cousin knows that there are a few details about Hongkong that you are leaving out of the equation. I wonder what a powerful man like Jason can do to you when he realised t

It worried Jason that Aria still hasn't been found yet but he can't deny his kids their right to visit their grandfather as they have always done since they were babies. This year, Heinrich had promised to throw their four years birthday for them at the Kavinsky Manor. He couldn't deny them the joy of having that just because of a crazy woman on the loose. He would find her and put her away forever.The police were working on getting her back. His team and Heinrich's team were doing all they can to comb the whole of California and all the probable countries she might have sought refuge in to avoid being re-arrested.Though they had not found any travelling record on her at any airport, Heinrich believed that she still had enough reach that she could have been stowed away in anyone's private jet. Jason has made personal visits and calls to the few people in Monroe, who have that luxury but they had all sworn not to have seen or heard anything from the oil baron's ex-wife.Jason knew t
THE GRAND PATRIARCH IS BACK Chp 245 - Good Question
Jason hated the fact that something that should be so simple and carefree in children’s life as a birthday had to be clouded by the veil of a threat that he still couldn’t figure out. Although he ensured that his observant kids and their friends couldn’t detect that anything was different, he ensured that Heinrich’s manor was heavily guarded during the birthday celebration. From the gate that lead to the massive land on which the house rested to the person serving the fruit punch, Jason had his people everywhere. That was the only condition he had given to Heinrich if he still wanted his grandchildren to celebrate their birthday at his place. They were both in agreement that the children’s safety was paramount since none of them still had no idea of what psycho Aria meant by sending those bows. Jason immediately got the bows replaced for his daughter with the exact colour and shapes, then his men shredded every single bow just to see if Aria was playing a sick game by putting somethi

Surprisingly, the birthday party ended well with no accidents or unwelcome appearances. The only surprising thing had been Jessie’s appearance at the party. Jason had his eyes on the young man throughout the party but he did nothing out of the ordinary. Jason soon wondered if he was been too paranoid after all. Celia stayed a few more days with them before she went back to Dengal and Silas played dotting uncle for more than a week before he packed his luggage to go meet his crew at Hollywood as well. He took the week off work because of the twins' birthday after all. He was their champion of the week as he regaled them with different anecdotes about the biggest film industry in the world. They even overlooked the fact that their favourite aunt was not there with them to celebrate their day. Mia had been unable to get away from the company due to Matteo’s surgery. It was a success but he was still recuperating in the hospital and was not back in Dengal yet. Jason choose not to commen

“What do you want?” Millicent asked the moment the door closed behind Liam. Jason did not bother to hide his displeasure at her countenance as he said “That is no way to talk to your husband, is it?” Millicent gave him a daring look and scoffed before making a move to sidestep him as she said “I don't have time for this” “Really? You don’t have time for me? But do you have time for my cousin? You had enough time to blush like a schoolgirl and laugh with my cousin yet you wouldn’t even give your own husband the time of the day” Millicent looked at him in surprise and said “That would mean that you believed that you deserved my time. It is my time, in case you need a reminder. My time and I will use it the way I damn see fit!” she snapped at him. “What the hell is this all about, by the way?” Jason asked in exasperation. “One moment we were good and the next you are acting up” “I…am acting up? I am the one acting up? You've got one hell of a nerve pinning that on me when you are t

Chp 316 - Epilogue
The latest of the scandals related to the Monroes was the handover event that turned out to be more than everybody expected. But instead of the event turning out to be the most humiliating for Jason as his enemies expected, it turned out to be the greatest positive publicity that he had ever gotten. Nationally and internationally, people were talking about the man who smartly outwon his evil relatives and helped the FBI and two national police to solve cases that had been open for ages. Sales in Paragon Heights and all their subsidiaries skyrocketed and their shares grew so fast that Paragon Heights' worth went from five trillion dollars to forty-eight trillion dollars in no time, with more potential. Paragon Heights became the Holy Grail of business in California and all over the world. They became the first conglomerate on permanent contract slots for the UN and many international organisations. Jason’s fame as a capable, family-minded, CEO grew with his sophisticated wife, Millice

Sonia opened her eyes and looked at him “A silly whim that I regret a lot now. I was to select a new face. Then I suddenly showed the doctor Millicent face on the phone that I wanted that. At that moment, it was to get back at her for having what I would never have - Jason, I mean. But eventually, I realise that in a silly way of mine, I was probably hoping that some of her goodness will rub off on me. Stupid, isn’t it?” she asked him with a smile, then look away again when his expression didn’t change. “Sorry,” she muttered. “You said she is happy?” he asked suddenly. She looked back at him with a questioning look on her face “With Jason. You are sure that her happiness was not just a show? She wasn’t just acting?” Sonia scoffed “Acting? She would be an idiot not to jump excitedly anytime she remembers that he belongs to her” She saw the look on his face and quickly said “Oh, I am sorry. I mean. She is very happy. She loves him. Any idiot could see that. Even when I was trying to c

Just as Millicent was settling down in her newly decorated office befitting a chairwoman; a woman who looked just like Millicent, until closely scrutinised, laughed out loud in a penthouse in Montreau. Bastion Alverro, current Capomandamento of the Alverro family gave her an askance look before asking “What is so funny in what I just said?” The woman continued laughing while trying so hard to curb her mirth “I…I am so sorry. I just couldn’t help it. Who would have thought that a powerful man like you would be a child at heart? I mean, who else would chase after someone this hard and for this long because of a silly dream?” she laughed again. Bastion looked at her again and said slowly “Something is different. Your face, that laugh. It is different” he said thoughtfully. “Oh, thank God. Finally, somebody with half a brain. I mean, I am sorry I am not trying to tell you that you have only half a brain. I am just…I was trying to tell those morons, who grabbed me that I am not that st

The drama of the morning only seemed to increase as Jasmine burst into their room, just as Millicent finished dressing. She had been distracted by Jason and dressing up had eventually taken more than an hour. Sending up a prayer to the heavens that she was fully clad, she turned towards the girl and smiled “Hey, beautiful. What’s up? What is with the rush?” “Grandpa is here,” Jasmine said excitedly. “He brought a woman with him” “Brought a…Heinrich is here?” Millicent asked in surprise. “Yes, he is. He wants to see Daddy and Isabel was acting weird” Jasmine said thoughtfully. “Oh yes, weird is the least of it,” Millicent thought anxiously. Then to Jasmine, she said “Go and tell Heinrich that we will be there soon” Jasmine skipped out of the room, her school tie swinging like a pendulum on her neck. Millicent turned to face Jason as he came out of the bathroom. He looked toward the door and asked “Was that Jas?” “Oh, it certainly was. And…well, you have a visitor” Millicent sai

“You were tossing and turning all night” Jason said to Millicent as she opened her eyes the following morning. He had been watching her for a while. “Uh? Oh, is that so?” Millicent said as she raised her head to accept Jason’s kiss “Hmm, this is surely the best way to wake up” she said as she held him tightly to herself and deepened the kiss. They were both breathing hard when they separated. Jason flopped back on his back, with his hand gently playing with Millicent’s hardened nipples. “Now, that is the best way to wake up,” he said with a chuckle. “No complaints from here,” Millicent said with a smile, then she stood up. Jason turned towards her direction and asked “Now, will you tell me what is wrong? You only toss and turn like that when you have something weighing on your mind. Is this about what I told you? About Silas?” Millicent’s eyes widened as she said “What? No, no. That is not... I mean, yes, what happened to your brother is… well, totally surprising. But I know you

“What?! Since when?” Mia’s shock-laced question resounded throughout her office floor. She looked aside to see some of the employees passing and they paused to look at her. She quickly waved at them with a smile that all was fine and hurriedly went to her door to close it. She turned back, put her phone on speaker and dropped it on her table before she said “Silas Benjamin Rouarke, what the hell are you talking about?” “Wow, that judgy tone of yours is really helpful right now, sister” Silas’s voice resounded in her spacious, elegantly furnished office. Mia raked her hand through her hair, then turned back to say “Oh, helpful? You want help? You had better hope that the host of heavens come down to help you when mom hears about this…this madness of yours!” she snapped at him. “You know what? I really do not have time for this. I must have been mistaken when I thought that I will get a little support at least from you before I talk to Jason and Mom. Guess not. Thanks for nothing” “

“That was not how I expected that brunch to go” Jason said as they got back home that day. “Yeah, you and I both” Millicent said as she went straight to the fridge to take bottled water. “You want some?” she asked Jason but he merely shook his head before he flopped onto the bed. “Poor Simon. He was beside himself with worry and guilt that he should have noticed that she was not herself” Millicent shook her head as she went to sit by him. “I am not sure he could have known when a strong-willed woman like Andrea was determined to hide something like that from him. You should have seen the look on her face before she left that restroom though. She was terrified yet showed a brave face” Jason laid his hand on Millicent’s belly as he said “I am sure they will figure out the best way to go about this and we will be there to help them with whatever they need as well” Then he sighed before saying “Does it make me a terrible person that I am glad that we do not have to worry about such a

Chp 309 - Cancer And Pregnancy
The Monroes had a celebratory brunch with Heinrich, the deadly duo, and Anastasia the following day. Heinrich invited them to his home to celebrate his clean bill of health and the promotions. The doctor informed him the day before that the toxins in his system had been finally gotten rid of. Also, the neurotoxicity potency had been curbed to a minimal level. Though he still had to take medication for the rest of his life, new research funded by Jason was already underway on how to completely cure neurotoxicity. So they were all optimistic that he would be totally fine and free of medications soon. They all arrived for the brunch in high spirits. Everyone was still happy about the turn of events in the company. The deadly duo and Anastasia marvelled at the magnificence of Heinrich’s home. Then they all settled down to the magnificence spread provided by Heinrich’s cook and his assistants. Mouthwatering biscuits and gravy complimented the no yeast, French toast bagels so well, yet the
