As he strolled through the halls of the mansion that still felt quite like alien territory, he wondered why he had no memory of it, or his life there. He walked through the main living room, up the stairs and even checked out his late parent's room before ending his tour at his old bedroom.The bed was huge, big enough to accommodate his whole length even though he was pretty tall. The walls, ceiling and floor all had touches of gold, giving it a royal look. An exquisite chandelier hung in the middle of the ceiling, its beautiful crystal lights adding extra beauty to the already perfect room. To the left side of the room, a sliding door leading to a well decorated balcony stood firmly and as he approached it, the fragrance of lavender flowers hit him, reminding him once again of his love for them."How old was I when I slept in this room?""Well, you slept here till you were eight years old sire."Eight. He repeated in his head, absorbing the beauty of his childhood bedroom. To think
"Father, may I have a word with you?""Not now dear, I'm quite busy with–""I'm afraid it can't wait, father." Every since the ceremony night where Lauren found out about her father's mistress, she had been thinking of a way to talk to him about it. She didn't say a word to her mother because she was hoping to hear her old man's explanation first. But everytime she asked to see him, he would claim he was busy. Well not this time."Hmm," he sighed as he already knew what the subjet matter of their discussion would be. "Very well, come in. And shut the door behind you."Her father's study was widely spaced so they didn't have to worry about any eavesdroppers. There was only one chair by the table so Lauren proceeded to seat herself on the reading table. "Father–""Before you begin, I want you to know that I only did it to secure my place in the society." Antony said in defense of himself."Regardless, it's wrong. You cheated on mother,""Like you cheated on your husband?" He attacked, st
"So I guess this is goodbye." Erika said as she stood by the door with her packed luggage. She wasn't living with Jason but she visited so often and she always left one or two things behind after every visit."No, this isn't goodbye. I already told you to stop saying that." Jason said, taking her hands in his."When am I going to see you again?""I'll drop by the store whenever I get the chance.""Okay.""How's your dad? Is he feeling any better?""Yeah, I guess so. But I think he's also stalling because he's worried about what people will say. He's innocent and he knows that, and we know that…but it doesn't mean people still won't wag their tongues.""That's true." Then he would have to find a way to deal with the situation. He added in his mind."Anyway, your missus is going to be here soon so, I should go.""Alright dear." He pulled her in for a hug. "One last kiss for the road?" She replied to his question by placing a kiss on his lips, but it didn't last too long or else it would
"Good morning Mr Decker." His receptionist greeted as he got to work. Aside from Jordan, only a hand full of staff knew who he truly was and the receptionist was one of them."Morning Sarah, is Jordan here yet?""No sir, but she did call and said she would be late today. Said she had trouble with her car or something like that."Trouble with her car, that was a lie. "Okay, please tell her to see me in my office when she gets here.""Of course sir."Jordan had been lying to him for almost a week now, and Jason's curiousity was killing him. He really wanted to know what was going on. Maybe it was related to Phil's issue.Speaking of Phil, Jason hadn't heard from him in a while. Could it be that he had gone into hiding? Or could it be that he was busy planning his revenge somewhere?He just had to find out.Thirty minutes after he had settled in his office, Jordan walked in. "Good morning Mr Decker, you wanted to see me?.""Morning yes, have a seat.""Thank you.""I was thinking of some
Rose is a bad otrskn, so her father just be a big time criminal."Oh hi, I never thought I'd run into you here." Rose commented with her usual falsified smile on her doll face."Oh my God, me neither." Jason lied, smiling back at her. He had seen her post online and decided to show up so they could 'accidentally' bump into each other."Wow, you look absolutely sexy. I just want to eat you all up." She giggled like it was just a joke but Jason could tell it wasn't.Jason didn't know which it was, either she had a really high level of libido, or there was something that she was helplessly attracted to about him, but whenever they met, she always made sure to bring up at least two sexual jokes, probably with the hope that he would take the hint and lay with her. On other circumstances, that would have aided him greatly in winning her completely to his side, but he hadn't been with any other woman since Erika, and going to bed with Rose would feel like he was betraying her. So he resort
ONE WEEK AGO."So what's the plan?" Rose asked Jason as they made their way to her car."At the meeting, you're going to come over and introduce yourself as his girlfriend.""Why would I do that?""It's pretty obvious that you've chosen the old man over me so I might as well help you get him." Or better said, use her to get what he wanted."Really?""Yes. So, you'll come over and announce that you're Antony's girlfriend. Just in case they don't believe your words, I'll back you up. Okay?""Okay.""Then you are going to tell him that you're pregnant and well, his reaction will determine what we'll do next.""Just like that? In case you've forgotten, he has two kids my age, if I say something like that in their presence…what if they try to hurt me?""They wouldn't dare. Their old man won't let them touch you, and if he doesn't stop them…I'll be there for you.""Hmm I'm not so sure I'm comfortable with this plan of yours.""Let's just give it a shot, okay?""Okay, but what if I tell him
Life, a mystery.So long, yet so short. So tough, yet so fragile. Life was a huge mystery that no one could understand. Although Soren Kierkegaard went on further to explain that:'Life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced.'It was a puzzle that no one could figure out. It has its ups and downs. Filled with twists and turns, like a roller coaster. A person could feel immense joy in a day and the next, experience an even greater amount of sadness.Sometimes, it would feel like you're down in the dumps but other times, you're celebrating and merrying.Sometimes, an individual expects comfort but gets disappointment. And sometimes expect disappointment and experience joy.No one has a way of controlling it, we can only live, and hope life gives us the good.Jason Paul Decker was currently experiencing the good, his business was booming, his revenge scheme was going according to plan, and his relationship was going smoothly. He couldn't be happier, he had the m

His business started to fall, his business partners started to withdraw from working with him and the people lost their trust in his company and products. He was certain that Jason had something to do with it so he promised himself he would come back for his revenge on both the company and Jason.Lauren's mother was trying to force her daughter into getting an abortion and he decided to use that medium to get his revenge. "That is the only solution for you!" Mabel yelled at Lauren."No it isn't." He objected and they all turned to where he stood. "Hey Lauren, I'm back.""Phil?""It
