According to the police officer, Lauren had plotted with Rose's bodyguard to take her life. The reason for her actions, he said they were still unknown but he had some officers working on it and hopefully soon, they would be able to find and arrest the bodyguard. "How can you be so sure that Lauren was involved?" Jason asked, mostly out of curiosity than concern."I believe I said the charges was attempted murder… meaning the victim survived.""So Rose told you Lauren tried to kill her, and you believed it?"Jason didn't know if it was the look on his face or the slight change in his voice that was giving off a signal but the man leaned forward, folded his hands on the table in front of him and stared directly into Jason's eyes. "You seem to think her story is a lie? Any reason for that?"Jason cleared his throat and backed away. "I never said she was lying, I was just saying she could be. Rose isn't a person you can trust.""And how, if I may ask, do you know that? Because if I'm ri

"Hello?""It's me sire, I was just calling to check in on things.""Oh? Thanks Matthew. But this isn't your number.""You're right. It isn't. Your grandfather insists on leaving you to handle things on your own but I just had to give you a call to know how you're doing.""Thanks, I'm okay. He has been asking lots of questions about my marriage with Lauren but I don't think anything major will happen from it.""Good to know. And did he tell you the reason she was arrested?""Yes. Apparently she tried to kill someone.""What? She did?""Yeah. To be honest it's still kinda puzzling that Lauren would do such a thing. I mean sure she has done some bad things in her life, but murder… it's shocking.""I guess that's why they say you can't judge a book by its cover. One might look harmless on the surface but they could be as dangerous as a wild animal.""A wild animal?""I didn't know what else I could use to compare their dangerous nature."Jason smiled at his butler's comment and from the c

As the evening casted her shadowy garment, when the breeze became brand-new and placid, the time of joyful reflection had arrived. He needed to clear his head, and so he decided not to take the car, he dashed out of the police station, plodding into the silent street of their little town. He decided to take a slow walk, slow enough for him to clear up all the mumbled thoughts from his mind but not slow enough to miss his ride. Thankfully, his grandfather's friend had been delayed so he had an additional thirty minutes. He needed to think straight - alone. The cool breeze pricked his skin, holding the scent of earthy fragrance around the surrounding. When Jason was seventeen, he had met Lauren and he had been attracted to her ever since. Sure she didn't know who he was but he always viewed her as a loving, kind, and caring woman. Then they had fallen in love, and he was even more convinced that she was an angel on earth. If his mother in law was the one who got arrested, he wou

FLASHBACK."Mother, I want you to do everything possible to make me Jason's wife again. And I don't want Erika, or any other woman, to get in my way.""Really? Why does it have to be that loser?""I can NOT lose like this mother! Do you have any idea how ridiculously lame it would be for me, Lauren Kings– your daughter– to lose against that… that nobody?!" Competition was one other thing that her mother responded to. Lauren watched with pleasure as her mother frowned, obviously pondering what she had just said. "Are you really okay with that?""No." She said quietly, then added more firmly. "I am definitely not okay with that. Erika or whatever her name is has got to go. Don't you worry Lauren, I am going to handle this. You just leave it to me!""Thanks mother. Once I'm Jason's wife again, I will gladly hand over the company to you."After their discussion, Mabel immediately sprung into action, Lauren putting the company as a reward made her mind go into overdrive. She thought about

FLASHBACK.Mabel's mind was spiraling to out of control and she couldn't stop herself from pacing around the room. She had consumed almost a whole bottle of alcohol, hoping to drink her worries away but it wasn't working. If Julian's plan didn't work as it was supposed to, she could spend the rest of her life in jail, or worse. Why was he still alive? She specifically asked the doctor to make sure he never recovered. So what happened?Did they apprehend the doctor?Or maybe he confessed out of fear? That was possible, since the Decker family was a very powerful one.What was she going to do?Just then her phone vibrated and she hurriedly went to check it. It was a message from Julian.(I hope you're not planning on doing anything stupid. Just sit tight and do as I tell you, or going to jail will be the least of your worries.)After reading it, she tossed the phone aside in anger. She had to do something about him as well. If he went on with his threats, she was sure that one day he w

"Mr Decker, I am really sorry to bother you so late at night, but it was rather urgent." Jordan said, her voice vibrating with urgency."It's okay, what's up?" Due to the six hour delay of New York's time, she wasn't calling late at night. Rather it was quite early in the morning."I do not know if you have heard but, your ex wife has been arrested and is currently in police custody." She reported."Yeah, I heard." She seemed to be trying her best to prove to him that she was worthy of her job again and it almost made him feel bad that he had replaced her. "Uh do you know what her offense was?" He asked, hoping it would make her feel better."From what I heard, she was arrested for the attempted murder of Rose Sinclair.""Oh my goodness, is that so?" He did his best to sound surprised because he knew it pleased her that she was the one giving him the information."Yes. But she is not the one who did it— or try to do it— anyway, she is not the culprit."Now that was news to him. While

FRANCE."You wanted to see me?" Meredith had called him early that morning, not quite long after his discussion with Erika, and she had asked that they went out because she had something to ssy but Jason didn't want to go too far away from Erika because of her condition, so he said he would go to her room instead."Bro, I have big news.""What's that?""I know what happened to you as a child.""What?" Matthew had given him the details, leaving out only one part, the most crucial part ,and that was who was responsible. Could it be that his cousin knew who kidnapped him as a child?"I know it may be shocking but I know who was responsible for your kidnapping.""Are you going to tell me who it was?" He asked eagerly."I will, or at least I was going to.""What? What do you mean by that?""Look at you bro, I haven't even mentioned any names yet and you already look so pissed. I can tell that you are clenching your jaw real tight now. And just look at those fists, if you punched someone wi

NEW YORK."So?""What?""So what if sister Lauren was the one who made the suggestion? It doesn't change the fact that you were the one who pulled the trigger and not her. Besides, she is your daughter, as a mother what you should have done when she said that was to advise her. You know how she feels about Jason, you know she was desperate and her desperation was what pushed her to such resolve. So when she told you, you should have found a way to talk her out of it. I mean, it's not even like you want her to marry Jason, but because she offered to give back the company, you jumped right into action. And it's not even like you managed the company well when it was under your control.I just… I don't understand you mother. Now that things have turned out this way, what's going to happen?. Tell me, how do you plan on getting her out of it?""I don't know!!!" She barked. "I just, I know that I will think of something. Just leave me be.""One week. That is all I'm giving you mother, a we

SOMEWHERE IN SWITZERLAND.MABEL'S NEW HOME."They think they've won, just like that. They think they can just toss me to the side and expect me to stay still.

After the tables turned on them, Mabel and her husband relocated to a remote island far from New York where she was sure that she was a wanted person because of what she did to Jason as a child. What she didn't know was that Jason decided to bury the story, telling the media that he was sure the culprits would get what was coming to them. What made Mabel even more enraged was the fact that her son joined sides with her mortal enemy. She was expecting that much from Lauren who was blinded with love, but Marcus… she still couldn't believe it."That bastard son of mine is definitely on my list of enemies.

FRANCE.Meredith regained consciousness with a huge gasp for air like she had been drowning. She quickly surveyed her surroundings and saw that she was at a hospital. She tried to remember what happened but everything was fuzzy. "Ugh, my head." She tried to sit up but a all man eased her to lay back down. "Easy now, you shouldn't sit up just yet. Just lay there for at least thirty more minutes." He said, holding her down. "How.. how did I get here?""Your brother brought you here, he said he found you unconscious at the park.""The park? Wait my brother?""Yes. He'll be here soon, he just stepped out to use the bathroom. How are you feeling?" He placed a hand on her forehead to feel her temperature. "Like my head is about to explode. What happened to me?""You mean you don't remember?""Not really, everything is just so fuzzy.""Don't worry, it'll come back to you in a while. I'm doctor Brady by the way." He said with a warm smile.

NEW YORK."Hey Steve,""Mr Decker! Is it weird to say I missed you?""Not at all. Because I missed you too." Steve was one of the reasons Jason was actually looking forward to resuming work. "Man, working without you has been really boring." He confessed, walking with Jason through the busy halls of the company. "Well, I'm back now.""Completely?""One hundred percent. My grandfather told me you helped greatly in planning for this ceremony, I'm really grateful.""When he said you needed my help, I was more than eager to assist. I'm just glad I could help.""You know, I am really happy I decided to make you my personal assistant."

But Jordan believed in going straight to business. She believed that once she was at work, the only thing sh

115. Family Meeting.
Meredith had trouble sleeping all night because of two reasons. The first one, Jason still hadn't replied to her offer and it was making her feel anxious. The second reason was because Josh had called her the night before and he said he wanted to see her. He said he realized how harsh he sounded and he wanted to apologize. He also said she didn't have to go to his place and if she was feeling unsafe in letting him visit her that they could just go to a cafe to talk. Joshua was her best friend and she didn't like fighting with him, but another part of her was feeling scared to see him. "Well since it's going to be a public place, I guess it's fine." She texted him and asked him to meet her at a cafe that wasn't too far from the mansion.When he arrived, he was smiling brightly, looking like the Josh she used to know. "Thank you for agreeing to see me." He said as he sat across her."It's okay.""I must admit, I lost my temper there for a while, and it made me go out of line. I'm sorr

"You're free to go.""What? Did someone settle my bail? Was it my daughter?" "Just get out already, or maybe you're already used to the lifestyle here? It's totally fine by me if you want to stay a while longer."Mabel's response was an irritated look, followed by a nod of disapproval. "Where do I get my things?" She asked. "At least get out of your cell first, then you get your things." The warder led her out of her cell and back to the reception, where she was asked to write her name down and some other information. Then another officer brought her purse, jewelry and her phone that were taken from her the day she was detained.She went outside, hoping to see Lauren or Marcus waiting with a car but neither of them were there. She took out her phone and was about to dial Lauren when she noticed her car pull up at the front of the station. "Mother?" She seemed surprised to see her mother out of prison already. "How did you get out? Did Marcus come here?""You mean, it wasn't you?"

113. Promise Of Love.
Jason was feeling skeptical on whether it was okay to invite Marcus or not. Without his family involved, Marcus was a good person and Jason wanted to keep working with him and he didn't know why but he was getting the feeling that he had changed. But what if he hadn't? What if Marcus was still the same person? There were lots of what if questions that could hinder their friendship and even their work relationship. But Jason decided to trust him. He texted him and personally invited him to the ceremony, and to his surprise, Marcus replied almost immediately, saying he wouldn't miss it for the world.Jason texted him the venue and time and even told him the dress code as well. then just as he was done texting him, he received a call from his not so favorite cousin in France."What do you want Meredith?""What do you mean by that question? Didn't you see the video I posted?""So?""You know what it's about, right?""And if I do?""Then I'm also guessing that it would be bad if I were t

112. Change Of Path.
Marcus had been thinking about his family for a few days and the conclusion he was always arriving at was not a good one. All his life, he had always tried his best to be the good son, the best child he could be to his parents. He was quiet, obedient and he always made sure he came in top in his studies. He never did anything to get on his parent's bad side, neither did he ever taint their image. If anything, he was the perfect child.They say all teenagers always have a rebellious phase, but he never did, he was always properly behaved.His father never really had their time so he leaned to his mother's side, always wanting to please her, to make her happy, to make her proud of him, and eventually… he became his mother's pet.His childhood, his teenage years, and even some of this adult life was dedicated to making sure his mother was proud of him, making sure she loved him. He didn't think about anything else. Not the life he could live for himself, not the name he could make for h

111. Spontaneous Outing.
For their date, Jason wanted to do something that would be memorable for both of them but he didn't know what. He tried long and hard to decide on where they could go, but nothing came to mind.Erika still insisted that they just went back to the mansion to prepare and look after his grandfather and the twins, but Jason knew that was because she was not having fun yet. So he had to fix that. At the moment, their car was currently parked at the gas station where Jason decided they stop for a refill, but it was just to give himself more time to think. He had never really think about it, but deep down, it felt like he had been anticipating the day that they would go on such a date. A day where they could do whatever they wanted, whenever they wanted to. A day where he didn't have to worry about work, and she didn't have to worry about looking after the store. A day where they could just be a couple, just two people enjoying all the sweetness life had to offer. Obviously it was impos

110. The Date.
Jason was skeptical when his ex brother in law suddenly asked for his help, but he decided to trust him, of course he was not going to let his guard down though. "Need my help with what?" He asked."Like I said, we can't talk here. Let's find somewhere more private.""Can't we just go in?""You mean in the bakery? No thanks. I would rather keep my distance from baked food. I know how hard I had to work to get this body, I can't risk jeopardizing it again."Jason smiled at his statement, he remembered when he first met Lauren, then Marcus had just been her chubby, cake loving baby brother. She said he was obsessed with cake and that was the reason he gained much weight in such a short period. The reason Marcus stopped eating sweets was because other kids made fun of his size, and the girl he liked back then called him a fatso and said she could never be with a guy like him. "Right." He said simply. "So where do you want to go?""Personally I would prefer it if we just spoke in my car
