“Jack, please, can you come to Stanford? My mom wants to see you.”

“Why? I hope there is no problem,” Jack replied.

Jack was beginning to think it was the assurance he gave Jasmine the previous day that if anything should come up, she should let him know, that was making her say that.

“There is no issue, she just wants to know you,” Jasmine reassured him.

Jack was tempted to continue asking to know the reason Jasmine’s mom would want to see him out of the blue, but he decided to go visit since it was the weekend, and he wasn't doing anything. Besides, Stamford is a town close to New York City.

He got confused at the same time on what to ask Jasmine exactly, but he managed to say, “When did you travel, yesterday or this morning?”

“I was too weak yesterday to step a foot out when I got home, so it was this morning that I traveled.”

“Ok, it's fine. I will come. Give me less than 50 minutes to be there with you, and don't forget to send me a map of the exact location.”

From New York to St

    As soon as Nick got to the house,“Mum, I met Jasmine when I was coming in here, and she doesn't look happy at all. Same with the young man who left with her. What was the problem?”“Oh, you don't care whether I am looking good or not. It's just your sister, and a stranger you don't even know that you care about? Well, the silly girl wants to go against my wish, and I will not see that happen. You saw the stupid guy who was with her, huh? That's the man she said she wants for a man.” His mother lashed out with all her might, uncontrollably, as she was still thinking of what else to say.“Mum, why would you call the man, stupid? That's not fair enough; you know that.”“Like I care, please don't interrupt me again. Well, I know you would support her, but that's not my business. Meanwhile, I have a man, who possesses all the qualities every girl would kill to be with—he has influence, and he is very wealthy. She should even count herself lucky that he loves her and not the other way arou

    ‘Did Blade lie to him, or did Richard get back without Blade’s notice?He can't mess around with his sister and this one too.’Many things were on Jack's mind, but he needed to take them one after the other.He had an unreadable, terrible expression written all over his face.Jasmine shivered with fright as she saw the expressionless look on Jack’s face. Aside from the day they went to the funeral services of Jack’s sister and grandpa, she hadn't seen Jack in such a mood before.At the same time, she had no clue what exactly was wrong with Jack, but her intuition was strong that it had something to do with what she had just said.She trembled with fear and almost fell to her knees if the car steering cover could allow her. “I am so sorry if I have said anything wrong, boss.”She could not afford to provoke Jack, as she wished she could just burrow into the ground.Besides, in a short interval after her mom had lashed out her words angrily at him.But Jack wasn't even responding to he

    “Your apartment is so nice,” Jack complimented. Even though his mansion looks like a paradise, he has to appreciate the feminine touch of Jasmine’s place—a plush setting with pink couches. It was also adorned with a pink table, and even the walls were painted pink. It was safe to say that her favorite color was pink, or that she was a fan of Nicki Minaj.Jasmine was able to convince Jack to follow her to her place before Jack got down from her car at the spot where he had parked his car. To her greatest surprise, Jack accepted. She never believed it, but there was no harm in a trial, you know.So Jack drove right behind her when they got to New York from Stamford until they both finally halted at the entrance to her house. It was a modern, standard bungalow that was well-furnished. It had other occupancies, but everyone had their own bungalow space. They parked their cars in the parking space with other cars.Back in Jasmine’s apartment, after Jack made himself comfortable on one of

    “I am an accountant,” Jack finally said.“That's a very nice profession. And where do you practice?”Just as Jack had envisaged, Nick went further to ask. Jack doesn't even want to let him know he owns an accounting firm, let alone that he was the CEO of Agron Incorporation. He doesn't have a problem with him on that, but he has known their mom’s kind of person and wouldn't want her to get to know him for some reason known to him.But then, there was no need to lie to Nick because he was likely going to know the truth from Jasmine, his sister. You know, first impressions matter a lot, so he has to apply wisdom to answer his question.“I own an accounting firm,” Nick said.Nick was beginning to wonder what made their mom think that Jack was poor, let alone talk down on him. There was no way someone who owned an accounting firm would not be rich. Jack hadn't even mentioned the name of the particular firm, and Nick was this amazed already.There was no way he wouldn't know the firm becau

    As soon as Jack returned home from Jasmine’s place, he went to meet his butler in his room.Going to Blade’s room always seems off to Jack, or else there is something important he can't wait to get from him. As soon as he stepped inside Blade’s room, he asked, “Blade, how are you?”“Oh, boss. You are already back.” Blade, who was on a loud earpiece turned around to face his boss immediately he noticed Jack entered his room.Jack went straight to have a seat.“You got back quite late. I wanted to call you like an hour ago or so, but I remembered you were with your girlfriend, and you two might decide to chill together.”Jack didn't have the strength to start defending anything; he just had to admit what Blade had said.“You weren't wrong after all, but it was no serious chilling. I just want to know her place. I haven't been there for the first time, so it's not a bad idea if I go to know where she stays.”“There's nothing there, boss. You know I will always tease you at every slightes

    “Good day, boss,” Kate greeted as soon as she got to his boss's office.Jack, who was busy sorting his bag, responded, “Good day, my dear.”“Sir, it seems you are about to leave,” Kate asked after a short observation from Jack.“As you can see, Or is it not time yet for your boss to leave?” Jack jokingly asked.“Nope, I didn't say so. Just that I felt like from your usual time of you leaving the office, it's like 30 minutes earlier.”“That's funny. Does that mean I have a fixed time to leave work?”“Not at that, boss. The truth is that I haven't seen a boss as punctual as you are. That is why it seems a bit unusual to me.”“Ok, it's alright. I sent for your presence because I wanted to let you know that I was expecting a client from the governor. I don't know if he is still coming, but in case he does, attend to him. Likewise, I will look through the files when I get to work tomorrow.”It was no new thing that the governor sent clients to Jack’s company from time to time after the fir

    Scott had accompanied his boss to see his daughter, Nancy, to know how she was coping. But Scott waited in the car on Mr. Andrew’s order, as he wanted to have a private discussion with his daughter. As soon as Mr. Andrew got to her daughter's apartment to see Nancy, she sat down on one side of the sofa with a sour expression on her face. For the past few days, the gap between them has been like a difference between the earth and the sky.With a long face, Nancy said, “Welcome, Dad.” Then she took her face away.“My love, I know you are still mad at me; please forgive me.” Mr. Andrew can never go out of style when it has to do with calling her daughter pet names.Nancy’s eyes lit up instinctively to look at her dad. “Daddy, how you talked to me was not right. You blamed me like I was the cause of our predicament. That was not fair.”“I understand how it made you feel. That is why I have come to say that I am sorry. Let bygones be bygones.

    As the election approached closely, Mr. Andrew had an engagement with two of the cabals in the Labour Rights Party at one of the exquisite bars’ hotels in town. The men were like the founding fathers of the party, just like godfathers.They have done so much to show him how they run the party to have higher chances of winning. Mr. Andrew was quick in making them his friends, as he doesn't take chances when it comes to mingling himself with men that matter.The three men continued their chats, and their cups of wine were filled once the volume dropped. They prepared to drink themselves to a stupor and then have some women attend to them in their respective rooms after that, as they'd planned to sleep outside for the night. That's what can be done to get what you want.As they drank in the dimly lit room, it pulsed with a life of its own, cloned in a soft illumination that sent different color shades of waves down the walls of the room.

    “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

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.

    “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.
