THE GRAND PATRIARCH IS BACK Chp 57 - Living It Up
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

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
THE GRAND PATRIARCH IS BACK Chp 63 - Weird Taste
Nothing was ever easy.Jason still had no idea what happened to his device and even though he suspected that someone might have jammed the tracking device, he had no idea who it could be.“Could they be on to me?” He thought as he stood in the overly large, masochistically decorated living room. The archway at the entrance gave the house a palatial feel that invited the curious to explore but his nerves were too strung tight for him to indulge.Cain had no such restriction though, he gaped to his heart’s content. “It must be good to be rich, don’t you think?” he asked nudging Jason slightly.Jason nodded and kept his gaze straight on. A man came to meet them after the driver dropped them off, still without saying a word and he turned the car away. Jason wondered if he was going back to the farm. He had not had the time to think much about that though when the man who was formally dressed even though it was already 9 pm came to receive them.“Come with me,” he said as he took them into

“Let me go!” the girl spat as she was thrown on the floor by the two men that brought her and she struggled to loosen the blindfold on her hand. the sound was muffled behind the gag on her mouth though.Her eyes were blindfolded as well and all she could see was the light showing behind her eyes. She knew he was somewhere in the room. The bastard thought it funny to stalk her first before he removed her blindfold.Then he would want to touch her! Then he would laugh cruelly when she tried to run! Atimes he would grab her and rub her against himself. The bastard! She had been lucky that it had never gone beyond that. Most of the girls she knew had not been as lucky as she was. Most of them went away innocent and unaware and by the time they came back, they would be something else.“Well, I am not going to allow it!” She thought fiercely as she squirmed around. She toppled over while she was trying to remove the duct tape used on her hands. Frustration made her miserable.She had never

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
