Jason couldn’t wrap his head around the fact that he was now ten dollars richer than he was minutes earlier. After dismissing Theo and his men, he took the Koenigsegg out for a drive. He pondered on the man’s message and wondered where he kept the card and company lists. Knowing him, the man must have deliberately given it to him in a way that he couldn’t reject.Jason turned down the idea of any monetary gift after all at first when the man told him his plight and he wanted to be done. That must be why he sent the money in a way that he couldn’t refund it.Jason felt a blurriness in his eyes as he drove and he was surprised to see tears when he touched it. He looked around and saw a sign that lead to a diner so he took the next turn and decided to spend some time there. He needed to clear his head.He ordered a latte and waved the waiter away when she stood expecting him to ask for one of their delectable meals.“This is fine,” he said and the lady rolled her eyes over his head as s
“Enough of this game!” Matteo growled as Mia struggled against him. He felt himself growing more excited by the way she was fighting like a hellcat. And he could feel his cock swell.There was no way he could hold himself again and this bitch was going to have it one way or the other.“Let me go!” Mia struggled against Matteo’s hold. Disgust roiled through her and she was sure that she would puke any minute from now. She knew what the straining bulge against her was and she would be damned if she gave in.She blamed herself for allowing Aurora to convince her on a late-night jaunt. She had been in the dormitory trying to prepare for the upcoming test when Aurora suggested they go to the club to have some drinks and fun.Mia refused but had only done it half-heartedly as Aurora had been heartbroken recently because her boyfriend dumped her. Aurora guilt-tripped her into going but a few minutes after they got there, she decided that coming to a club where other couples were looking so
The grin chilled Mia to the bone as she realized that he had no intention of letting her go tonight. Whatever his plan was for her, it was not going to be favorable nor would there be an easy way to get out of it.“And I gave my phone to Aurora! What a dunce!” she berated herself as she wracked her brain for what to do.She looked at the back of the driver’s head and wondered how so much ruckus could be going on behind him and he did not even turn at all. “This must be something not new to him,” she thought. Rich young master, my foot! This bastard is nothing but a slimy worm! She shuddered when she belatedly realized that her butt was uncomfortably close to his crotch. How she ended up sitting partly on him, she had no idea.Her mother always said she lost her sense of reasoning when she was furious anyway. How else would she explain that she was sitting so intimately on someone she was trying to fight off?“Good job” she muttered and felt most disgusted by the hot air from his nost
She hit him anyway “Where the hell were you?” Jason would have smiled normally at her feisty attitude but not at the moment. The mad dash from the diner to the club where he met her friend fretting as she hysterically explained what happened had soured his mood. Even though he had to call them to verify where the bastard was heading, he refused to have any backup to deal with this slime that thought his father’s money gave him the right to treat everyone the way he wanted. He had been lying in wait for them at the hotel and he was about to show himself as the car entered when he saw Mia dash out of the car in a panic. Jason wondered briefly what she would have done if he was not there as the men were right on her heels. Fucking Fitzgeralds. She was shivering, damn it! He realized when he looked at her very well and he realized that despite her fury, she was badly shaken. He felt shamed for not fulfilling his promise to her. “I am sorry, Mia,” he said solemnly and she nodded befor
Jason called Theo and asked one of the men to come with a car but Theo was the one that brought the car followed by one of the men’s cars. "Sir, I have been so worried,” he said anxiously as he parked beside Jason. Jason was glad that he already sent the girls back to their hostel as Theo didn’t only bring the car himself, he brought some men with him too. Jason dismissed his worry and sent him along with the men and he drove the Lykan Hypersports to Dengal University of Technology, Mia’s school. He smiled to himself as he remembered that Celia once accused him that he was the one who influenced her kids’ love for technology-related courses. Silas studied Software engineering while Mia was currently studying Web Development and Data Science. Even though Silas was more based on his robotic team buildup these days after Matteo had taken over Jason’s company, the guy was a badass software developer and he had taken a huge part in the software that got them the Sundara deal but all that
Jason flipped the paper over and saw the handwritten note “If you are reading this; that means you finally figured it out. One of these is the contact of those in charge. They know who you are” Jason checked the envelopes again and saw another embossed folded paper in another envelope. True enough, each company was listed with the name of its president and contact details. Surprisingly, Matteo’s name was not listed on Darlington Hotel or Engorge. Jason shook his head “Guess you were not all that after all, idiot” he muttered to himself and stood to pace. He looked at the name of the Acting CEO of the parent company, Paragon Heights and he realized that it was one Charlotte Gibson. He was surprised that all those presidents with their ages and entitlement reported to a female but he was sure that she must be quite capable for his leader to hand over such a huge conglomerate to her. “I have to pay them a visit,” he thought and he picked up his phone to call the number attached to t
Jason smiled “I am not a fan of cocktails, Sarracio. So I cannot accept this”“What? Is he crazy? How could he not want that?”“And as a gift too!”“Oh, I wished I am the one been given that!”The people’s murmur reached Jason’s table and he wondered if he was embarrassing Sarracio by rejecting his gift. He was no fan of mixed brews though and Jason did not care that it was so hyped and quite expensive too. It was just another drink to him.Just then he saw Mia talking to one of the doormen at the entrance, he smiled and nodded at Sarracio. “I do know someone who might be interested though. Thank you”Sarracio
“What exactly is this surprise about?” Silas asked for the umpteenth time as they got out of the car. Mia shrugged “Don’t look at me. Jason is being all hush-hush about it” “You sure loved driving that” he inclined his head towards the Koenigsegg they got down from. Mia drove like a bat that was smoked out of its hole on their way. You bet I do” She looked back at the car and winked at her brother as they waited for Jason who was parking. Then she tapped the handle of her sunglasses against her teeth as she watched Jason approach them in his graceful movement “He still won’t tell me what this was all about though. Promised to tell us later” she turned to look at Silas with a narrowed eyes “Do you know something?” “Nope, nothing. Even if I know, I am not telling you” he said with an aggravating grin before leaving her side to go meet Jason “Yoh, Jay. You are not about to tell me that you pulled me away from my practice for sightseeing, are you? Because I might just decide to kill

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
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
