Jerome stood up and left.

"B… boss," Alaska attempted to speak, but Jerome had already departed. Alaska wanted to negotiate with him but had no chance.

"How do I get out of here?" Alaska pondered, walking around the house in search of an escape route. After an hour, he found nothing and grew hungry and tired. Seeking the kitchen, he discovered a variety of fruits and vegetables but no main dishes.

"Oh, this man is ruthless," Alaska thought. "How can he stock only fruits and vegetables without accompaniment? I'm stuck eating only fruit and vegetables for three days." Despite not reaching the three-day mark, Alaska was on the verge of tears. Accustomed to heavy food, surviving on fruits and vegetables felt like consuming candy.

"Boss, why did you seize his mobile phone? He could have contacted the man behind him, making it easy to trace him," Bright inquired.

"Contacting the mastermind will bring more trouble. He plans everything carefully without leaving any loopholes," Jerome explaine

    "After the Cadell family found a solution to their problem, people thought there would be peace henceforth. Who knew another bomb was going to drop the following day? The Cook family, Clark family, and Alaska's family were on the verge of bankruptcy in just one night.Now, my lovely readers who had forgotten who the Cook and Clark family are, they are Isaac and Frederick, Jerome's classmates whom they met at the class gathering."Wait, this is terrible. Why would these three big families go bankrupt overnight?""I think they have offended some big shot.""Yeah, you are right. But who is it? Who is the big shot that can destroy one company in just a month?""Hey, you don't know. I heard Alaska was the technical leader in the Cadell company. He was the one who added some code to the fitness tracker which resulted in leaking users' data. I think the CEO of the Cadell company is behind this.""Wow, if it's true, then the CEO of the Cadell company is ruthless. And if it is so, what did the

    "Mia woke up and walked to the living hall. She saw her parents discussing an invitation card."Honey, why not let Mia attend? Since it's a business gathering, I am sure Jerome would be present," Mrs. Cambridge suggested."I would like to, but I want to build connections with people. You know the company stock has been going down recently." Even though he wishes Mia would reunite with Jerome, they don't have much time left. Ever since Jerome left, the company has been going down. He thought he could manage the company without his help, but he miscalculated it. When he came home and found out Jerome had been driven away, he didn't bother searching for him. He never liked the boy; he has always thought he would take the company away from him. He was overjoyed when he realized he wasn't in a competition with anyone. Who knew everything would be a mess right after he left, and he would not be able to find a solution to this trouble?"Hubby, I understand the situation of the company, but

    Mia was the first to arrive at the party. Even though her stomach had grown big, it didn't hide her beauty. She looked stunning in the blue dress."Wow, I heard pregnant women do not look beautiful, but it seems the young miss of the Cambridge family proved us wrong. She is so beautiful," one man commented."Yes, my wife is beautiful, but when she was pregnant, she looked so... so... Miss Mia is lucky. She still looks beautiful even when she is pregnant," another chimed in."I don't mind marrying a pregnant woman," the first guest said with lust in his eyes."Hey, watch your words. How can you lust over a pregnant woman? I heard she is the fiancée of the young master of the Jackson family.""Mm, but they are not yet engaged. I still have a chance," the man said with a determined voice."Keep dreaming, Mr. Dreamer," the other said in a mocking tone and left the man.Looking at how the men were fighting over her and how she was the topic for today, she smiled in satisfaction. "So what i

    Eleanor's feet ached in her high heels, but she forced herself to keep walking. Each step sent a jolt of pain up her legs, but she gritted her teeth and persevered. Jerome saw her expression and asked, "Eleanor, are you okay?""Yes, boss, it's just that my feet ache badly," she replied with pain in her voice."Why didn't you say it earlier and force yourself to walk?" Jerome was angry. If he hadn't seen her expression, she would have endured the pain."I am sorry, boss; I didn't want to distract you." Eleanor bowed her head and mumbled."Fool," Jerome cursed at her in a helpless tone."Stay here and don't go anywhere; I will ask Bright to send you some shoes." He helped her sit down, bent on his knees, and took off her heels.Mia, who was talking with her father, saw what was going on. She clenched her fist, and her eyes turned cold. Even when Jerome was obedient to him, he never treated her like this. How dare this lowly servant bewitch her man. She was determined to continue with he

    The crowd was silent, pondering the situation. 'Right, right, I saw the woman sitting quietly, and the pregnant woman came to her. I don't know what happened; she seems provoked, and the pregnant woman must have provoked her.'"But that shouldn't be a reason to push her," another chimed in."No, she didn't push her; she slapped her rather.""She is still evil. She needs to be arrested.""Haven't you been provoked to the extreme before? If she didn't provoke her, would she have slapped her?""But that doesn't change the fact that her miscarriage was caused by her." The crowd divided into two. Some understood Eleanor, while others were against her.Listening to the murmurs and how the people scolded her, Eleanor shivered more in Jerome's arms."Enough!! this is not for you to judge; I will take care of it." Jerome's sudden roar startled them. They kept their mouths shut. Looking at his dangerous eyes, none of them were willing to offend him, so they walked away one by one until they wer

    Mia had been trying everything to leak the news to the media, but they weren't ready to take the risk. Frustrated, she got an idea. Despite not being a celebrity, she had many followers on TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, and Thread. "Gosh, why didn't I think of this?" she said happily like a child finding her missing candy. She called her mother, "Mom, let the servant bring me my ring light and makeup box. I need to make a video.""Mia, you are not yet strong; why do you need to make a video?""You will know later," she said and hung up.Thirty minutes later, a servant brought the ring light. She told the servant to stand outside and, when done, she would call for her. She picked up her makeup, applied a cool-toned foundation, used concealer to cover imperfections, and set it with powder. A highlighter on cheekbones, nose, and cupid's bow gave her face a glow.After finishing, she looked at herself on the phone, satisfied. Though still hospitalized, her color had improved, and she only l

    When Jerome got to his office, he called Bright who had just resumed work over. "Bright, I told them to stop the news from leaking. How come it is all over everywhere? " " Boss, I did as you instructed. Mis Mia has a lot of followers and so the news quickly spread when she made the video herself." Bright explained. "Let me have a look," Jerome said.Bright searched for the news and gave the phone to Jerome. Eleanor also picked up her phone and scrolled through the internet. She quickly found the news since it was on the trending news. In the video, Mia sat on her hospital bed with her messy hair. Her pale looks in addition to her messy hair makes her look very pitiful. Tears started streaming down her cheeks as she began talking. "I am the only child of my parents. My mother tries hard to conceive but to no avail. Growing up, I wanted to have siblings to play with them but that wish didn't come through. I could feel my parents also wanted to have more kids but to no avail. I promi

    The next morning, another video trended. It was about a witness confirming what Mia said. There were two witnesses at the party. One was the one whom Jerome warned, the other didn't make himself known. Now the matter has blown; people are calling the police to arrest Eleanor. Some even went as far as tracing her to her house. Jerome foresaw what would come so he instructed her to move to his place.At the Jackson family..."It's been almost a week since the incident happened, and that girl is still roaming freely. Just what backer has she found?" Mrs. Jackson sat on the couch and wondered. She has been adding fuel to the burning fire, but it seems nothing has been done. The police have not even come out to say anything about the incident. They were all pretending as if nothing had happened."Mother, don't you know?" Elidad asked. He couldn't make it to the business party, but his friends who went told him everything."What do I not know?" Mrs. Jackson lifted her head slightly and aske

The police have been working non-stop to find any traces of Jerome, but so far, there's been no progress.In the Cadell's mansion that evening, Steve and Gaius were present, visiting frequently. The old master, however, was visibly distressed, sighing every few seconds out of worry and fear."Is there anywhere else you think he might be?" the old master asked Steve and Gaius."No," Daniel replied."Sir," a guard interrupted, entering the room."The cops are here," the guard reported.Sitting on the balcony upstairs, they watched as four cops entered, and the old master stood up expectantly."Any news?" he asked."We found this... by the bridge," one of the cops said, handing over a piece of note to the old master."What is this?" the old master asked, his hands shaking."It's a supposed suicide note written by your

    Steve stayed back with Gaius and his family, as well as Jasmine. Jasmine has been crying nonstop, Steve tried consoling her it seems too difficult. Gaius watched his friend suffer and feel uneasy trying to calm Jasmine down."Fuck this is frustrating!! Why does she cry too much? Does she have an ocean under her eyes?" Steve mumbled under his breath with a frown.Gaius helped him out by putting Jasmine's head on his shoulder and taking Steve's hand to stroke her hair gently. She came down shortly and Steve smiled, not long after sleep took over her and Steve positioned her well on the couch, allowing her head to sleep on his lap as he continued stroking her hair.Her beautiful face caught him and Steve began staring at her full eyebrows, nice nose, and such lovely lips too. He didn't know what was going on but his heartbeat is racing abnormally right now.Jerome had called the guys earlier and told them he would spend the night in the hospital with Eleanor since she had been attended t

She prayed a silent prayer thanking God for giving her a second chance.They are currently in Jerome's car on their way to see her. Jerome's phone rang and Eleanor had to pick it up for him since he was driving.She put it on loudspeaker so that he could hear “Man. You guys are going to keep me here till night falls right?" Gauis fumed over the phone" What are you talking about? " Jerome asked innocently."Don't tell me you forgot?" Gaius said."What day is today? I don't remember today being any special or am I missing out on something?" Jerome asked clueless.“What hell with you Jerome!!!

    "All eyes fell on James, somehow they were happy he was here because he was the only one who could handle Stanley's madness.""Have you gone nuts? Do you want to kill your grandpa, someone who cared for you as an infant even though he has never liked existence? He did his best by giving you capital to start a new life. You wasted the money and showed your stupid face here like the burden you are, and now you want to kill him? I swear to anything you hold sacred, if you do not put that gun down, I promise you will regret it, little boy," James barked at him.In a normal circumstance, Stanley would have thrown the gun away as soon as James scolded him, but this time around, he had a smirk plastered on his face. He started laughing maniacally, showcasing his madness."You fool, do you think the little stunts you pull still affect me? Grow up, man. Those empty threats of yours don't affect me anymore. I will advise you to clear my way, or do you want to die in his place?" Stanley glared a

    "How did all this happen right under my nose without my notice?" the old master said with shock."You have a good mindset, Grandpa, but it doesn't mean everybody's like you. James chose to take the part of envy. You did not choose for him, so do not blame yourself. As for Annika, she is just a green snake in the grass," Steve said, trying to calm the old man down."I knew that Annika's silence was a threat, but I never expected her to join forces with James. Nevertheless, I'm not surprised. I expected one thing or another from her," Jerome said without concern."Steve, can you tell me exactly how you managed to get them together?" the old man asked."Before grandma left this morning, I was with her in the house when James and Annika came down together, ready for work. I got suspicious, so I asked Grandma when the both of them became that close... She replied that it started not long ago, but from her speech, I could sense she was happy at the new bonding. I don't know why, but somehow

    Steve went straight to Cadell's company, needing to see Jerome immediately. He had been avoiding the fight that had arisen between himself and Jerome, but he was lucky enough Eleanor had talked to Jerome on his behalf, so they were fine now."Is your boss in?" Steve asked as he chanced upon Bright, who was just coming out of the elevator."Yes, he is in. Should I inform him about your arrival? He is currently in a meeting with the company board," Bright answered."Don't worry, I'm not in a hurry. I'll wait for him in his office," Steve smiled.Bright escorted him to Jerome's office, offered him a glass of water, and excused himself to continue his work.James came in with Anika, rushing to the meeting room, which ended abruptly at their arrival. All the board members stared at them with disdain."Why are you just coming, Mr. James, and Miss Anika?" One of them asked with a frown."Had to take care of some personal stuff," James answered simply."What about you, Anika?" Another person

She always has a new story to tell of her youthful days.Eleanor and Jerome had left early that morning because they had work."I do not see you busy of late," the old lady asked curiously."I took a break from work; my second-in-command is taking care of everything perfectly. He contacts me anytime he has difficulties," Steve explained."Okay, I was just wondering because the Steve I know is a busy person who has no time to spare," the old lady chuckled.There was silence in the room till the old lady spoke again."Why don't you use this opportunity and find yourself a lady who will take care of you?

    Jerome and Eleanor were still in Jerome's grandparents' house when a call came to Jerome's phone. He excused himself to take it; it was a call from the doctor who is taking care of Jasmine."Why are you calling me at this hour? Do you need anything?" Jerome asked."I have good news for you instead, the lady you asked me to be taking care of is awake," the doctor broke the news."Finally, I can rest. It took her long enough," Jerome breathed out."What should we do about her, Boss?" The doctor asked."We will come visit her tomorrow; it is already late," Jerome concluded."Allow her to be in the hospital for now; I will be sending someone over to bring anything she will need. Keep her for now till I come for her myself," Jerome instructed.The call ended, and he joined his family."What took you so long?" Eleanor pouted."Just business," he answered."Where are my grandparents?" Jerome asked."They said they had to go get some sleep, and also your grandfather said we should stay for the

    There was silence between the old man and his grandson, none of them was ready to talk. The old master was expecting his grandson to say something but the bitterness down his throat is preventing him from saying anything."Did you call me to sit here and watch you or you're going to say something," the old Master started to break the silence in the room."Why did you do that?" Jerome said simply."Can you talk in simple words? What do you mean by what you just said?" the old master replied."Why did you take such a decision and ask my friend to keep it away from me? It is not just anything this issue here, is something that involves my life. You should have at least told me about it if not for anything for the bond we share. Not for once have I taken any decision without telling you about it because I thought you were my everything and we have that kind of bond but then you proved me wrong," Jerome spoke bitterly."Why would you think that of me? You should listen to me at least, I
