“You should have experienced enough trauma from all of these that I won't even have until forever. You are indeed a strong man, boss,” Jasmine praised Jack after the latter was done narrating the story of his latest encounter with Moe in detail to her.“I am happy you are good now. When I got to know that you didn't go to work for sometime just to make Mr. Moe believe you were in a coma, it was indeed something I couldn't comprehend,” she added.“Sometimes I ask if it's a crime to be wealthy. And other times, I just feel I can just move far away from the eyes of that man, but he who fights and runs lives to fight another day.”“Exactly, boss,” Blade, who had been listening while Jasmine and Jack did more of the talking, finally spoke.The chattering among the three friends went on and on as they teased about everything that had happened to Jack in the short time.“Let me get going. I have a few unfinished business matters I need to attend to. You know tomorrow is work, and I need to c
Jack and Blade were surprised that Bella was already there, waiting for them before they even got in.Blade knew he needed to give them space, and he did, knowing that Jack would definitely give him feedback, as they had agreed.“How come you got here first before we did?” Jack inquired.“I left my house and came to this place immediately after I called you,” Bella replied.“Why? What if I didn't come? Maybe something came up from my end,” Jack questioned.“I would have gone back to my house. It doesn't mean a thing.”“That sounds funny, anyway,” Jack chuckled.“That is by the way. Firstly, I would like to thank you for how you paid my mother's bills, and I had enough to take care of her for the few days she will be staying there.” Bella said in an appreciative manner, adding some emotion to the atmosphere“You don't need to say this all over again; just let me know why you asked me to come. Besides, have you thought about the idea I told you about what you want to do for a living?” J
“What's up with that useless son of a bit*h? I hope your arrangement with the 'honey trap' you had planned for is progressive.” Mr Andrew inquired from his friend, Mr Moe.The two were having some tete a tete in Mr Moe’s residence and they decided to divert to that of Jack's case.“Yes, but she hasn't accomplished the main objective. This is just 4 days after I contacted her for it,” Mr. Moe explained."They have only had two contacts, but she hasn't given me feedback on the second one yet. Moreover, I planned out the first one, but for the second one, I didn't arrange for it as they mutually agreed on seeing each other again after the first meeting. Maybe the stupid man is falling in love with the lady in question. Anyway, I have asked her to come, and she will be here soon.”“Poor lover boy!” Mr. Andrew exclaimed. “By the time he gets to know what is happening, he must be doomed for life.”“That's quite a pity, but he deserves it and more. When that happens, I will make sure I get a
“Hello Jack.”“Hi Bella, how are you today?” Jack responded in a calm voice, over the phone.He came back from work about an hour ago and was having some discussions with Blade. Jack had anticipated Bella's call, as she assured him that she would do it that evening and eventually her call did come in.“I am good. I was able to get the stuff from his place today.”“Oh! Ok, that's fine. How can I meet with you to get it? I need to start taking the evidence to the lawsuits as soon as possible. I can't wait for Mr. Moe to be apprehended for his evil deeds that he kept on a low all these years," Jack said with a tone of desperation.“I understand, but the problem is that I can't meet you in an open space. He's been monitoring me lately, as he said today. And I also promised him that next time we meet, you and I will have something intimate. I think this time he is trying to be strict with me.”“You know what? I'll send someone to you so he can assist me get that, this evening. I have made
“What! Don't tell me this is true,” Jack asked Blade hastily.“It is, young master. You can go through the video again if you wish to see them.”Blade went ahead and turned the very disc on, and it happened to be the video of how Mr. Moe had arranged for the death of the late Lord Rock through a fatal accident.He had discussed it with the luxury bus driver, and it was all planned out, unbeknownst to Blade.For the sake of not jumping to conclusions, Blade knew he needed to fetch the very man so that he would be pressured to confess the truth. Afterwards, he will be used as evidence against Mr. Moe in court. If not, that very video might not be enough to get what they want.“You know what? I need to get this very man wherever he is, and I must do that.” Blade said.“There is no time to waste. I'll have to go on and get the police to call attention to Mr. Moe's crime. He will pay for every one of his evil acts, but then I must commence getting him arrested while you can go on with what
Jack had waited for Blade all day after he got back from the police station, as he didn't go to work again.Later that evening, the long-awaited Blade got back late, and as soon as he did, he had to engage in a conversation with his boss, Jack.“This thing is more complicated than I had thought, but I think this is the end of the road for Mr. Moe,” Blade uttered thoughtfully.“Why do you sound like you found something deeper than what you had gone to do?” Jack asked with furrowed brows, looking confused and eager to know what Blade was pointing at.“You won't believe it, young master.”“I will know whether to believe it or not when you let me understand what happened today,” Jack said as he fixed his gaze on Blade, who sat opposite him."Ok, then,” Blade said. “Mr. Moe had wanted to cunningly take over your grandfather's corporation right from the start; that was why he initiated the accident.”“What!” Jack screamed at the top of his voice.“Yes, young master. Sorry about that, but th
Blade was driving his boss, Jack, home from the high court premises, and their respective hearts were filled with genuine and immeasurable joy, which they felt deeply.Jack couldn't remember the last time he felt that way; it must have been the longest time.At first, Jack was confident and positive that Mr. Moe and Mr. Andrew were going to jail. However, Mr. Moe had messed with his sense of certainty to the point where he had to see it happen before he could believe it.Moreover, one can't be too sure of the tricks Mr. Moe had up his sleeve this time. But now, it was a reality that the unshakable being who had troubled Jack's life wouldn't taste freedom, as he was sentenced to life imprisonment, and the same with Mr. Andrew. They were both found guilty of the numerous allegations that the opposing lawyer had convicted them of.“At first, did you notice that Mr. Moe was looking a bit excited when the courtroom security officer walked him in? Until he took a look at the judge's seat,”
Jack had stepped out to eat alfredo pasta in a restaurant with Blade—that is Jack's favorite kind of pasta, anyway.As they became engrossed in the food's sweetness, the next thing Jack and Blade heard behind them was “Daddy.”That was Amanda, his daughter. Nancy went on a date with someone she had met not long ago. The man in question had asked Nancy for a dinner treat for her and Amanda, so she accepted.Since he wanted to get Nancy's attention more, he knew the best way to do it was to get along with Amanda.So it was a tactic he used, and he really wished he would succeed.Jack immediately turned around to see whose voice it was. Before he could turn, he couldn't vaguely be sure that it was Amanda's as that was the only one who could have called him, 'daddy.' It was as if her voice had changed in just quite a short moment, not up to a year.Amanda ran with open arms, and before Jack could know it, she grabbed him with her tiny hands as if she could carry him if she was allowed to.
“Getting married to you is one of the best decisions I have made,” Jack complimented Jasmine, while Jasmine kept on grinning from ear to ear stylishly.They were relaxing in the sitting room, as it was the weekend.“Mum, can you join me in my game if you don't mind?” Amanda interrupted the lovey-dovey moments Jack and Jasmine were having together.“I will join you soon, you can go back to your room, babygirl,” Jasmine hastily replied and Amanda winked excitedly at her and left.Not long after Amanda left, one of the housekeepers came by. “Good day, young master. Someone is here to see you, and she said her name is Nancy."With raised, angry-looking brows, Jack turned and said to the housekeeper, “Tell her to leave at once and never to step foot here.” Looking so bitter, like he just heard terrible news, he added inwardly, “I wonder who showed her the way to my house.”Jasmine tapped him gently on his lap. “Darling, that was a bit harsh. Please hear her out first.”“There is nothing wr
Jack and Blade were watching the news of Richard's jail sentence.Before then, Jack had made sure that Mark was set free just like they had agreed, even though the police finally came to rescue him. But then he remembered that Mark almost got into trouble just because the latter wanted to help him save his daughter and Jasmine, if he had agreed to do what he wished.He didn't stop at making sure that Mark escaped; he also ensured that Mark's grandmother was sent to the best hospital for proper medication treatment.That was the least he could do for himself at the time.Mark in turn appreciated him, and Jack offered him the sum of money he needed to set up a business.“I never saw you as this happy, young master.” Blade commented.“Of course, I need to be happy. Knowing I don't have to worry about anything ever again. At least now, Mr. Moe, Mr. Andrew, and now Richard are all in jail, and I will make sure they rot in jail for all I care.”Jack misquoted, coming from a completely diff
Jack saw that as an opportunity to at least express what he feels for Amanda, as he had initially given her the impression that Amanda was the one who needed her more.But right now, he could feel he needs Jasmine more in his life, even more than Amanda does, and he wouldn't miss this moment to prove it.Thank goodness that none of them lost their lives, especially Amanda, as she was on the verge of losing it while they got to the hospital, but Mercy said no.Jack had spent over an hour in the kitchen just to make steaks, mac 'n' cheese, and fruit salad.Amanda had requested it, and since love needs to be expressed by going out of one's way to get things done,.He had to do it, even though he doesn't enjoy being in the kitchen, hoping Jasmine would enjoy it as well.Jack called out, "My two babies, dinner is ready."Amanda's room was occupied by both Jasmine and Amanda.Even though there was a lot of room at Jack's residence, Amanda and Jasmine can't be separated, at least not now tha
After Jasmine and Amanda were discharged from the hospital, they were both brought back to Jack's house, as the doctor had instructed that they needed proper attention and love more than any other time.Jack saw that as an opportunity to at least express what he feels for Amanda, as he had initially given her the impression that Amanda was the one who needed her more.But right now, he could feel he needs Jasmine more in his life, even more than Amanda does, and he wouldn't miss this moment to prove it.Thank goodness that none of them lost their lives, especially Amanda, as she was on the verge of losing it while they got to the hospital, but Mercy said no.Jack had spent over an hour in the kitchen just to make steaks, mac 'n' cheese, and fruit salad.Amanda had requested it, and since love needs to be expressed by going out of one's way to get things done,.He had to do it, even though he doesn't enjoy being in the kitchen, hoping Jasmine would enjoy it as well.Jack called out, "M
From what he could read, he could sense that something was happening behind his nose.Could it be that Mark was bargaining with Jack on the instructions that were given to him or something?The thought of it made him almost go wacko, as no one crosses that line and gets free with him.Even if not immediately, he would certainly make sure the person went down 6 feet below.Richard pulled out his gun from his pocket and placed it on Mark's head. I gave you instructions on what to do, and you dare try to do otherwise?” He blurted it out angrily.“You pull that trigger on that guy's head,” he instructed one of his boys that followed him inside while looking in Jack's direction, to show who he was referring his boy to.“Then you,” he said, gesturing to the other person, “go to bring his daughter and side chick where they are kept.”As soon as the guy left to get Jasmine and Amanda out, he said, “Hold on, don't pull the trigger yet.” He quickly instructed the first guy he had asked to shoot
“What is going on here? I ask again.” Richard shouted at the top of his voice this time.From what he could read, he could sense that something was happening behind his nose.Could it be that Mark was bargaining with Jack on the instructions that were given to him or something?The thought of it made him almost go wacko, as no one crosses that line and gets free with him.Even if not immediately, he would certainly make sure the person went down 6 feet below.Richard pulled out his gun from his pocket and placed it on Mark's head.

“Jack.” The words got choked in his throat. Everyone in the city knew about the latest Jack Ford. The once-hidden CEO of Agron Incorporation had decided to pipe down all this time.He knew that if it's true, then the person right before him held immense power, more than even the president of the state, and the incorporation thrived powerfully.But then Mark couldn't believe what he heard. With a smirk, he said, “You think you can fool me, right?”“Believe it or doubt it at your own risk.’ but their business thrived.Then the realization that it should be true hit Mark: was he the same person he heard had decided to keep a low profile along?Mark fell on his face immediately at Jack's feet. “Please, I beg you, spare them. Please,” he pleaded, and Jack stood up, as it was obvious he was unmoved by his gesture. He knew he couldn't fall so cheap as he was sure that Mark was only being a cheap hypocrite, he thought as he walked to the west side of the room, examining the view properly.“D
Just then, the captain's phone rang, interrupting his thoughts. He looked down at his pants, where his phone was, and then immediately went back to Jack.“I will advise you to pick up that call; you might be saving a life. Who knows.” Jack teased with mocking looks and enjoyed the helpless expression on the captain's face.The captain hastily picked up the call, and it was quite a familiar voice that he heard.“Mr. Mark…” The caregiver he had employed to take care of his grandmother's voice came through as if it were vibrating.“Mrs. Joy,” The captain called out to confirm the voice he just heard.The captain's eyes widened in shock as the pistol he held earlier fell from his hand, while Jack gave him a condensed look of confirmation.“You fool,” he muttered, but he could be heard as he watched the captain finish his call.As soon as he got off the phone, he turned to Jack and said, “Don't let your men touch my grandmother. She is all that I have!” The captain started with a loud voic
Blade was at home, ordering one or two things from his end via phone calls.Although he was on and off the house as needed after Jack had left, as he made sure everything was under control.One of the boys that works for him had come to report to him about what was going on so far.The report wasn't perfect compared to what he had planned in his head, but one thing was to plan, and another which is the main thing is making it go exactly as planned.Blade was busy contacting the police too, so as to keep tabs with them as he tried to make sure they didn't fail him at this moment when he needed them most.It's a matter of life and death, and everyone has their own part to play, just to leave no stone unturned.He also wished that Jack, Amanda, and Jasmine would be safe as they had planned, but it depends on how perfect the operation is.If not, with the way assassins sometimes work, they might end up killing everyone if things don't go their way or if they aren't stopped in the right ma
