Jason managed to convince Millicent to go home without him that night. It wasn’t easy, as she intended to wait with him in the office, but he finally convinced her by telling her that the kids would be sad if none of them was there to tuck them in or kiss them goodnight. He had to tell her that Anastasia would get him some food before she finally gave him a long kiss and told him to at least get some rest before the day broke. Jason sighed as she left and groaned a bit as he went to the couch in the resting area to lie down for a minute. His head had been pounding so volatilely all evening. He had told Millicent that he was fine after she made him take aspirin because he knew she wouldn’t have let him continue working if she had known that it was still raging. “Damn headache” he muttered as he closed his eyes briefly. After assigning his men to the fieldwork that James Reed and his men might not be able to cover, he pulled up everything he could get regarding Sebastian Randall. Mill
The shit hit the fan before the day broke. It was sent anonymously to every social media in the country. Soon enough, it was reposted by so many people that it was hard to keep track of where it started. Only one was posted though. The post about bloodsucking Paragon Heights getting its profits at the detriment of the people. Before 7 am, many organisations have heard about it and they were picking up on it as well. Many passionate organisations and foundations were eloquent about companies endangering the lives of animals for corporate proceeds and were already writing and posting articles about Paragon Height’s cruelty. The post wasn’t only national but international-wide. Many people who wouldn’t dare to utter a bad word against the conglomerate jumped on the ship of public opinion. The company’s phones were on going crazy as early as they were turned on, with different news outlets asking for clarification about what they have heard and the opportunity to be the first station t
Jason was able to fulfil his children that evening. He left the company on time to the delight of Millicent, who had the chef made the delicious Mexican pot roast that he had come to love. Jason ate his fill that evening, buoyed by the presence of his family around him, physically and otherwise. As he watched Jasmine try to pull a prank on Alexander, only to be refuted by the latter; he remembered the calls he had had from Mia and Silas. They had both seen the posts online and were worried about him. Silas wanted to come down from Hollywood to help out in any way that he could. Mia also had the same thought even though she still had the bulk of their game company on her shoulders. Matteo’s operation was successful and he was back in Dengal but he was warned against doing anything strenuous till his spine surgery would get finally healed. “He will be able to walk again” Mia had declared impassionately that afternoon after Jason had dissuaded her from coming over to Montreau. Jason wa
The new day dawned with its share of woes. Jason was reluctant to leave the warm arms of his wife after they spent most of the night up and revelling in each other’s bodies. He held her close to his body before toying with her succulent breast. Millicent woke up with a soft moan and repleted sigh. “Good morning, husband,” she said as she looked seductively up at him from beneath her lashes. She stretched sinuously against him, trailing her fingers along his inner thigh before grabbing his shaft in her hands. Then she gently pushed him onto his back before rising from the bed. “Good morning, wifey. Hmm, someone is in a perky mood today” he said with a smile as he watched her moved her hair back from her face and bunched it up in a messy bun. He was already rock hard by the time she set her tongue and teeth on his lap. Biting, licking and sucking, she made her way up from his thighs to the underside of his rock-hard dick. She toyed gently with his scrotal sac, pulling them into her
“You…you thought we offed him?” Andrea laughed out loud on the terrace attached to Jason’s office, where they were having their lunch. They just got back from Bora Bora that afternoon. And Andrea came back hungry. Jason folded his arms and inclined his head at Andrea to show her that he was not joking. Andrea shook her head and bit into the succulent burger in her hand before talking with her mouth half-filled. “As much as I am flattered, boss. That wasn’t us. I mean, yeah. I would have given anything to see the bastard croak myself but nah, that never happened. We did go to Bora Bora but I guess he was never there, seeing as he killed himself or got himself killed in his home at the same time that someone checked out of the hotel in Bora Bora in his name. Hmmm, these burgers are to die for” she said as she bit into her food again. “Andrea here might be oddly flattered by being accused of murder, boss. But I don’t share the same sentiment.” Simon said as he leaned back in his chair
Millicent couldn’t go to the company that morning because she was feeling fatigued and out of sorts. She informed Jason about it and he implored her to stay back at home. He would have stayed with her but he had a meeting with the lawyers that day and Millicent knew that he couldn’t stay back at home in the wake of this new scandal, so she implored him to leave and that she would be fine. He offered to take her to the hospital but she refused, assuring him that he would be fine after resting for a while. “It must be as a result of stress and all. I will be fine after resting in today” she told him and she proceeded to do just that after he left. Isabella prepared hot cocoa for her and she took it. It only stayed down for a minute though before she rushed to the toilet to vomit it. She was glad that Isabella had left her room, if not she would have panicked and probably tell Jason about it and that would only make him more worried. She only needed sleep and she would be good. Appare
Millicent couldn’t sleep that night. She tossed and turned in bed as the thoughts on her mind gave her no respite. She finally left the bed and went to sit in the adjoining living room so that she wouldn’t wake Jason. The thought of her pregnancy was the last thing on her mind and was not the reason why sleep had eluded her. It was about the scandal and the fact that things were getting more and more ugly. There were already rumours on the internet that Jason might have something to do with the multimillionaire farmer suddenly committing suicide after he had a lawsuit with Jason. Though there weren’t many talks about that yet, Millicent knew that it was just a matter of time before more fuel will be added to that fire. The major bone of contention at the moment was the issue of the affair. People were already reposting the pictures of Jason and Victoria’s kiss at the hospital. The picture of Jason and Victoria’s compromising posture in front of the bar was also going about again.
Jason's day was brightened by the news that his lawyers gave to him. The state investigation into Paragon Height's operation proved that there was no issue with their waste disposing system. Sebastian's fishes, who died were as a result of the water in the ponds being poisoned. No culprit had been found for that. And the man who was in the best position to give answers to that was now dead with a suicide note stating that he was sorry for his wrongdoings."That means that the lawsuit has been officially dropped against us, yeah?" Jason asked James Reed, just to be certain."Yes, sir," James said with a beaming smile. "The state would have demanded that he paid a compensation fee to you for defamation if he is still alive. Though you can still choose to sue his business, sir" "And cause his widow more grief?" Jason asked with distaste in his mouth "No way am I doing that. What matters is that we are in the clear now. I am not going to add to anybody's pain" he said.James Reed smiled
