THE GRAND PATRIARCH IS BACK Chp 55 - New Ally or Foe?
Jason made sure to check out the layout of the cabin’s interior. The inside was more spacious than the minimal look the single-story building gave off from the outside.The clapboard and cedar shingle used predominantly in the construction was well incorporated that it gave off a comfortable aura that invited one to sit back and relax. Nothing was relaxing about the men that lead the newcomers in though.Jason saw that the bungalow cabin was the straight-planned type as he followed the men without making obvious the calculations he was doing. The fire crackled in the kitchen to their left as they passed. Two men entered the kitchen going straight to the round table in the middle of the kitchen. The slab wood counter closed to the range looked serviceable enough.“Kitchen,” the man leading them said tersely. Then a few feet to their right, he motioned without giving them time to check it out. "Restroom" A turn from the restroom area and the men stood abruptly when they saw what was pr
THE GRAND PATRIARCH IS BACK Chp 56 - Saola Talk
Celia Rourke couldn’t believe her eyes when she received the message from Jason. She checked her phone again to be certain that she was not hallucinating. This can’t be. Can it? “You deserve this and more, mum. I don’t want you to reject this and I am sending you this message so you could rest assured that it was from me. They should be there with you any minute now” Just as she was pondering what his cryptic message was about, she got an alert. Not just any alert but that of an amount she never expected to receive ever! Where would she have gotten it? Celia was in the midst of their monthly cause meetings, they were just discussing how to ensure the safety of the Saola animals to prevent them from going into extinction. The representatives of the Saola Working Group from Vietnam arrived that morning. Celia was one of the active participants that facilitated the presence of the group in Dengal for them to educate people more about how to stop endangering rare species of animals and

Mia’s eyes bulged when she saw the last message that her mother had on her phone; the alert! “Ten million dollars? Mum!” she looked at her mother with incomprehension. Her mother nodded to her as she gulped down the water again “Welcome to the club”“Are you sure this is from Jason, mum? How?” Mia asked in confusion.Celia raised her brow at her as if to say “You are asking me?”“My God” she laughed “Jason is something else. Why would he…Oh” her mouth rounded in a perfect shape of O, her coral lipstick glistening as comprehension dawned “Your birthday, mum. This is your birthday gift! Uuuhhh. What a big show-off! How exactly am I supposed to brag about being the favourite kid now? Damn it. How can hard brownies compete with ten million dollars?”“Compe…” Celia shook her head at Mia. “Is that what you should be thinking about now? You are not even thinking about how he could afford to send such an amount to me? This is ten million dollars, Mia. not ten bucks”Mia sighed softly “You a

“One more word from you and I will…” “You will what?” Sonia asked in anger as she faced Matteo. “You are such a callous man, do you know that? How can you be so insensitive? Can’t you see the way people are mocking me?”She sniffled theatrically to show her grief better, thinking that should earn her more sympathy from Matteo but he had enough of her theatrics and he knew by now that was one of her ways of getting things from him.“Not today, though,” he thought as he gave her a derisive look He had enough on his mind than to indulge a dissatisfied bitch.“Jose” Matteo called.“Yes, young master” Jose answered as he ran in wondering what could be the reason for the call this time around. Sonia and Matteo had been fighting more and more these days and it was always the workers that end up bearing the brunt of the grief. One minute they are tearing at each other and calling themselves names. Then the next minute, they are loving up to each other.“Take her out of my presence,” Matteo
THE GRAND PATRIARCH IS BACK Chp 59 - Whipped
“Get up, you lazy bones!”Jason jolted awake from the banging on the door. He rubbed at his bleary eyes and fantasized briefly about how he would like to wrap his hands around the neck of that bastard who took great pleasure in giving them a hard time. It’s been two weeks now that he had been on the NMN farm. He had done things he never believed he would ever have to engage in. No matter how hard life had been before he met the Rouarkes, he had been a city guy after all. Who knew he would end up mucking stalls and picking eggs from angry-looking hens with the ability to peck one’s eyes out?The gore he had to deal with when he was ordered to deal with the birthing of a calf was enough to make him want to scrub his body for hours without stopping. That was not possible though as they were barely given enough water to even clean themselves properly.They were still in the probation period and Slasher had not decided if they were worthy enough to be brought into the inner circle yet. Th
THE GRAND PATRIARCH IS BACK Chp 60 - Others Will
Mechanically and methodically, Jason dealt the arrogant manager blows after blow at strategic spots on his body. Places where people wouldn’t see his bruises easily unless he deliberately showed them. Jason vented his anger and frustrations of the past few weeks on the weasel. Cain’s fever seemed to have retreated when he saw the way Jason was beating up the man that had been nothing but a pain in the ass for them since they got to the farm. The eeriest thing about Jason’s beating was that he was not even saying anything, no long talks, no taunting as the manager was known for. He did not even touch the minimal piece of furniture in the room as he plummeted the bastard. “What are you doing? You are going to get us killed!” Cain managed to croak out after trying unsuccessfully for a while. Jason smiled as he advanced on the manager again “No, I am not” he lifted the pathetic, whimpering mess of a man where he lay crumpled “You know why?” he asked Cain with his eyes on the hateful fa
THE GRAND PATRIARCH IS BACK Chp 61 - Alter Ego
Jason paced the floor of the cabin in agitation as he moved from the room to the kitchen to the windows to check outside and back to the room again.Cain sat at the table and was looking at him through slitted eyes “I believe I am going to faint first from your pacing before this fever decided to take me”“No, you won’t,” Jason said distractedly. “Once we can get out of here, I will get you the necessary herbs and you will be fine in no time”“You know about medicine too?” Cain asked in astonishment.“What?” Jason finally paid him attention. He was thinking before and had not thought of what he said. He looked at Cain blankly for a moment then remembered what he was talking about “Oh yes, I am skilled in eastern medicine. Fever is nothing at all compared to what I can cure but I need the right herbs which these bastards wouldn’t let us have. That would change soon though…” he trailed off as he added in thought “If the bastard did not rat me out”All he had used for the wimpy manager w
THE GRAND PATRIARCH IS BACK Chp 62 - A little Jam
Jason couldn’t believe it. Yet as the pickup ambled on the potholed road, there was no doubt that that had worked. Jason blamed himself a little that he had not thought of doing that before. Instead of lying low in wait for the best time to act, who knew how faster he might have found the girl? He might have rounded this up earlier and be back in Dengal by now.He could be getting acquainted with his newfound wealth now and getting incorporated into corporate life. Yes, he finally admitted to himself. He could be well on his way to courting the capable and ethereally beautiful Charlotte as well. Jason had finally admitted what that strange feeling he felt with the acting CEO that day meant. He wanted that woman and he intend to have her. Right after he came out of this in one piece.“The end justifies the means after all,” he thought to himself as he looked out the window. Everywhere was pitch black though and he could barely pick up anything beyond what the headlights of the car we
