THE GRAND PATRIARCH IS BACK Chp 283 - Out Cold
“Lemonade please” Anastasia requested the moment they got to the restaurant and a waiter came to them. “What?” she asked with an innocent smile when Liam gave her a weird look. “Lemonade? Seriously? In a spot like this?” he asked. “Call me weird but lemonade has always been my pick-me-up drink when I am tired, sad or even doing a pity party” she returned unapologetically. “Hmm, you are full of surprises, Ana” Liam said with an appreciative look. "But I am sure that you won’t get “lemon aide” at a place like this. They will be expecting the ladies to ask for wine, you know. Not…sorry to say, kiddies drinks” “Then they don’t deserve all the hype” Anastasia responded. Then she turned to the waiter “Is that true?” “Actually…” the waiter started sheepishly “I am sure I can get you that” the waiter said. "Would you like to order your meal now?” “No, thank you. I will do that after I have my drink” she responded. “Right. Lemonade” the waiter repeated. Then he looked at Liam “What can

“You will be sorry if your delay cost me something vital!” Jason said as he rushed out of the hotel elevator that took him to the floor where the room number was. He was sweating profusely and he looked harried, unlike his normal cool, collected self. A woman rushed after him, just as anxious as he looked. “Sir, I am only trying to let you know that it is against the hotel’s rule to just divulge our customer’s details or let you go to their room just like that. Please come to my office and we can discuss…” Jason ignored her and tried to open the door of STE 22. It was locked. He looked back at the manager of Mongolia Hotels, who was looking at him anxiously. “Sir, why not call…” “Are you sure she is still in?” Jason asked one of the staff who followed their manager up with Jason to the suite. The staff looked at the manager, then sharply nodded at Jason. “She got back this afternoon when I just resumed my shift and I haven’t seen her since,” he said hastily. “Sir, I still think…

Assured that he was not being held as a suspect, but they were just doing their job according to protocol; Jason finally explained to the police officers how he had known that Millicent might be in trouble. He told them about Victoria’s call and the fact that he thought; that this might be connected to Khan Maal.The police officers looked at each other in surprise and the look on their faces was not just of surprise; but of disbelief as well. They did not believe that theory. Everybody knew Khan Maal after all and it would take more than just a foreigner’s words for them to believe the most philanthropic, influential man in their country might not be so generous after all.They promised to get to the bottom of the case before they left. “I am sure that your wife will be fine, Mr Monroe,” the female police officer said before they left. Oddly, she reminded him of Celia. That thought seemed to be an eye-opener and he remembered that he had not contacted anyone at home since he got to T
THE GRAND PATRIARCH IS BACK Chp 286 - Space Interest
Khan Maal’s call jolted Jason out of his thoughts, where he sat at his wife’s bedside, watching the rise and fall of her chest as she breathed in and out. On her own. If a gaze intensity could wake someone, Millicent would be up and about at that moment.He had been assured by the doctor that she would be fine. The cut on her chest was not a stab as Jason had feared. It was more like a nick that happened when whoever perpetrated the acts cut through her top down to the navel with a sharp object. The doctor assured him that the baby was fine as well. The doctor’s major concern was just that there was trauma to her head because she had been hit too many times on the head and that could lead to neurological problems. “Let’s just hope that the complications are mild, sir” the doctor had said sympathetically. Then he added “According to her vitals, she should be awake soon” he had said before he left Jason with her in the room. That had been three hours ago ad Jason had not been able to
THE GRAND PATRIARCH IS BACK Chp 287 - A Psycho Would
The Deadly Duo got to the hospital around 4 am in the night. Jason was seated, wide-eyed beside Millicent when they arrived. He explained the stats to them. They were also amazed that Khan Maal had called him.“Do you really think he might be so stupid that he would call you even after doing this?” Simon asked.“Well, psychos have been known to do a lot of things and this is something that a psycho would do. So, yeah, he could make the call despite knowing the consequence. It could be to gloat or just to show that he has the upper hand. The question is, why would he even do this? Your wife doesn’t strike me like someone who goes about making vindictive enemies” Andrea said, with her eyes on Millicent. “Are you sure she didn’t remember what got her here?” “Positive. She vaguely remembers every other thing. But I don’t think she remembers even getting back to the hotel not to talk of what happened in there. That part is blank for her. I can’t force her to remember, you know. She keeps
THE GRAND PATRIARCH IS BACK Chp 288 - Red Room Butchery
Anastasia was in a panic as she stared at her shredding machine. The folder, of the oil company bid exclusively meant for a few high-profile companies in California, was lying open on her table while the documents she had been working on; which she was supposed to submit that morning; had turned into nothing but tiny pieces of paper shredded by the shredding machine.Anastasia couldn't believe her eyes as she looked at the disaster around her. "How had this happened?" she wondered aloud in her office. There was no one around to give her a response since the other staff had not resumed yet. A call from Jason had woken her up from where she had slept on the cold floor in her sitting room. It took her a while to get her bearing before she realised that her phone was ringing from behind the couch. Jason seemed to be in a hurry as he quickly explained to her that he wouldn't be back in time to attend the bidding meeting and neither would Millicent. He had informed her to make sure she ma

"You've got this, Ana. I mean you are so efficient that you put me to shame at times. Who else could pull that off despite the time limit? And look, we still have almost forty-five minutes to go" Phils said as he checked his Rolex watch while practically running out of the company to catch up with Anastasia, as she hurried towards her car. He was dressed in his typical Ken style. Lime colour, pants and suit jacket, flowery-patterned shirt and jade-coloured shoes."Well, tell me that after I have finally bagged this for the company," Anastasia said as she unlocked her car. Her cream-coloured suit and skirt with simple yet expensive, black, shoes exuded confidence and understated class.She tossed the key at Phil's "Please, drive. I need to still go through my keynotes" Anastasia said as she got into the passenger seat.Phils smiled and said "You are the best, Ana. If I was wired that way, I could kiss you right now. Then I will ask you to marry me. That way, I get to sit on the couch fo
THE GRAND PATRIARCH IS BACK Chp 290 - Bastion's World
“It was not me” “What?!” Jason was amazed by what Bastion was telling him. After telling Bastion about the post, Jason turned back and went to the hospital. He had barely entered with Simon when Bastion called him. He informed Bastion that he was at the hospital already and Bastion told him that he would meet him there. He was already coming to terms with the fact that Bastion did what he did to Khan Maal because of the message he sent to him, but Bastion’s statement put things on a different level. After dismissing Simon, Jason didn’t want to have to go far from Millicent in case he was needed, so he told Bastion to come into the private family waiting room he was assigned. She was sleeping at the moment but he didn’t want to take any chances. Bastion looked at the astonishment on his face and smiled “Oh, I see that you have already concluded that I did it. Well, thanks for the vote of confidence but it was not me. I wouldn’t have bothered to post such silliness. I am not into ex
