The Unassuming Mason Wilde Chapter 123
Mason walked into the boardroom extremely conscious of what looked like wagging tongues that followed him all the way from the lounge to the elevators and was now accompanying him most chivalrous into the board room.The members all ceased talking immediately he walked into the room, and Mason just had to raise a brow at that, he would have thought that his executives were too busy to gossip so early in the morning.“Sir, come with me please.” Rita Donovan immediately hurried to Mason's side and pulled at his arms, Mason's brows raised even higher if that was possible.“Okay Rita, speak.” He ordered in the safety of his office, he had already began to sense that whatever was happening was bigger than he had originally thought.

Michelle hesitated In front of the Wilson's mansion. She knew that they had no reason whatsoever to help her, but still she harbored little hope. Emerald was betrothed to her cousin Jason, and Ric Wilson had only been in love with her sister Scarlett for as long as she could remember.It should be that hard to seek their help, they had ties and connections with her family, intimate ties for that matter, and surely they would want to help her as a result?But still she hesitated. Ric Wilson might be in love with her sister, but he had been insulted and disregarded because of the said love, that Michelle was no longer sure if it was love or simply masochistic tendencies coming to light.She also remembered humiliating Emerald so vividly and been beaten for it, the truth

“Where on earth did you get that?” Ric asked in awe after Michelle's departure, he was pretty sure his sister could not have caught Mason in such a compromising situation, in fact he was sure of it, but there was the picture, and he saw it with his own eyes. He was intrigued in truth, and he could not help but study the picture again and again. It was a very passionate embrace indeed, and was a clear proof of Mason's infidelity.“Don't tell me you bought it as well?” Emerald laughed as her brother's expression was quite hilarious indeed, she was pleased though. If her brother could believe it, then Scarlett definitely would.“What's there not to buy?” Ric laughed, he was also very pleased. He would finally get his overdue revenge on the Wildes happily ever after. He was already relishing the utter look of betrayal that would cross Scarlet's face as soon as she saw the picture.“You are demonic sister, do you know that?” Ric asked Emerald with a grin, and she smiled right back, if the

Jason was honestly surprised when he was grandly summoned to the Wilsons mansion that morning, but that is not to say he was not suspicious, oh he was suspicious indeed. And he said as much to Emerald when she came up to him that morning.“You do not trust my brother.” Emerald said with a smirk as she observed Jason, deciding that perhaps he was not so dense after all. Jason stared at her with overflowing suspicion.“Me? Trust that bastard? Hell I probably trust him as far as I can throw him, which is obviously not very far.” Jason grumbled as he got into the car and Emerald took the will to reduce the chances of him changing his mind.“Careful, that bastard just happens to be my brother.” She murmured and Jason snorted unrepentantly, and Emeralds formed a fist on the steering wheel.“Yeah yeah, like I care.” He chuckled, and Emerald ignored him, deciding that maybe he deserved what was coming to him after all.~Scarlett stared at her sister in surprise, given their previous argument

“No.” Scarlett denied despite the evidence staring her right in the face. “No! No! No!” She cried, imitating a rocky motion on her feet as she stared at the picture in front of her, and held her arms crossed across her chest as if to protect her fragile psych from the onslaught it was about to receive. Michelle scoffed.“Denial I see.” She laughed, but there was no mirth behind it, it was simply a spiteful little sound that showed pure contempt for her sister and nothing else.*No!” Scarlett yelled again, so loud that even Michelle flinched back a little. “I'm refusing to believe what is obviously fake and orchestrated to ruin my happiness!” She yelled, looking at her sister right in the eyes, and Michelle could not help but swallow nervously, she could attest to the fact that that statement was meant solely for her and her alone.“So I'm the one after your happiness am I?” She laughed again, a short mean sound, but Scarlett was not backing down this time, she knew she had to fight no

Jason was not surprised by what they wanted, he knew he was about to be used in some way when Emerald had requested his presence.He stood before the Wilson's Mansion with a contemplative look on his face, there had been too much history between them, and he was hesitant about walking into the enemy's hands.“It's alright.” Emerald tried to encourage without sounding pushy, and judging by how he took a deep breath it was working.“Whatever you hear there, it's within your rights to refuse my brother's advances if you wish. Don't fret.” At this Jason nodded with a proud smile on his lips, and he took a deep breath before taking the necessary step, he went in.“Hello brother.” Michelle excitedly called. “The bait is coming in.” At this Ric grinned, as he was simultaneously joyous and sad for a moment like this? He was going to milk every drop he could put on the boy.“Hello Jason, come on in man.” Ric laughed as Jason loitered in the hallway, he could feel it, every fiber of his being t

Scarlett almost wished she could take back her words as she watched the shock on his face, almost, but when she thought back to him and Rita Donovan locked in a very intimate embrace, the feeling of regret faded away fast, leaving behind rage.Mason laughed. He laughed and laughed as he stared at his wife like he would a stranger.“Why are you looking at me like that?!” Scarlett screamed angrily, if there was someone that had the right to stare at the other with complete and utter betrayal coupled with blame it was her, her! Not him, her!“Because I wondered where you went?” Mason said softly, but that only raised Scarlett's ire, as she felt used and humiliated beyond reason, she was supposed to be the one doing all the things he was doing and enacting, she was the one that could no longer recognize him, not the other way round.“Oh spare me the dramatics!” She snapped, turning her back to him as she did so, her arms folded across her chest.“Sometimes I wonder if you are high on hard

Rita Donovan was truly surprised to receive a call from Gerard the next morning; she had become quite acquainted with him while she still worked for the previous chairman.“This is a surprise indeed.” Rita laughed into the phone, she had no reason to laugh really, just whatever disaster had happened for him to seek her out .“Why did you really call Gerard?” She asked, and there was silence on the other end as if he was contemplating her question.“Rita, when you worked for the late Chairman we used to be quite close as we both had similar purposes, looking out for the company and protecting the Wildes from the inside, remember? He asked, and Rita inclined her head in confusion.“Well I do remember, but what point are you trying to make here, why are you deflecting, what's going on?” Rita asked, and Gerard sighed.“The boss and his wife had a big row, yes just today. It was about you actually.” He ended, and Rita frowned, she had no idea what this was all about. A row about her?“Wh

Waiting felt like eternity, but Mason was just simply grateful to have his friend there even if he had persuaded them to return home but was promptly ignored of course. He was still glad. Glad he did not have to go through something like this alone, it would have been a nightmare to be honest.Mason stared at the time, the surgery had been going on for about two hours now, but he refused to think negatively, he could not really afford it, so he sat still and told himself that they were only doing what needed to be done.He picked up the drink Young had bought finally, he needed to stay hydrated, so he threw it down his throat, grimacing in the process as it burned him while going down. And he sniffed, his throat dry, he did not like that so much time had passed by it was becoming worrisome.“Don't worry. It sometimes takes this long you know.” Young offered and Mason nodded at him with a grateful smile, his friends were everything. He had no idea how he would have survived the turmoil

Through the bright haze of pain Scarlett could hear the nurses gasp as something got stuck, she knew that the atmosphere had changed, she was a sensitive person, so from the start of the labor itself she was already harboring terrible fears, and it seemed they were going to come through after all.The nurses tried their best to reassure her, they were the best in the business they said, all she needed to do was relax, it would be alright soon, but how could she? How could she relax when she felt herself losing strength by the minute. It was a terrible feeling, the weakness started from her head, sounds strange? Well that was exactly how it started, it started from her head and spread down slowly, leaving behind a terrible trail.She opened her mouth slowly and looked at the nurse, pleading with her eyes for her to come closer.“Mason.” Scarlett whispered pathetically and the woman sighed and patted her hand before leaning down.“Mr Wilde is out talking with the doctor ma'am, they are

“Ahhhhhh!” Scarlett's cries echoed down the hall where Mason was asked to stay as he paced with his friends, they were all thinking the same thing, if she was not in freaking labor, then why was she screaming so much, the sound was already Making Mason agitated. He could not hear it, and the more he paced with his face scrunched up in worry, the more worried his friends became.“I think we should try a different hospital.” Mark finally voiced out from where he sat with his head in his hands, and Mason's eyes immediately snapped to him in concern.“Why? What do you think is wrong with this one?” He asked anxiously, and Young immediately spoke over Mark, glaring at him to keep shut as he spoke.“Absolutely nothing Mason, do not listen to Mark, listen to good things only.” He cautioned, and Mark frowned but said nothing.Immediately he heard this, Mason's worst fear was confirmed and he stood to rush into the room Scarlett was in taking deep breaths with the nurse, her hair already matte

Scarlett had been trained for such a situation, the water may most likely break in the middle of the night, they said, it happens to a lot of women, so fear not, they had advised, keep a calm head despite the heat of the moment and think rational thoughts, they had counseled.But Scarlett was in the heat of the moment, and ration was the least thing in her mind, not when she felt so anxious. The fact that the babies were not kicking her the night prior, and the fact that Mason was at ease with the company around him encouraged her to dismiss the nurses from hovering around her all night, she insisted she was alright, and with Mason being too distracted to pay attention, there was little they could do.But now she wished she could take it all back, the pain was back and back with a vengeance, with a crippling force that she could only gasp and hold her stomach. She was even afraid to move as the ground was slippery beneath her after her water broke. Scarlett was totally unprepared for

Scarlett woke up from her nap, and was pleasantly surprised to hear Mason laughing downstairs. He never seemed to laugh anymore, and just followed her anxiously with his eyes, his legs practically vibrating with the force of stopping them from jumping up and helping her.But now she heard him laughing, something so carefree in his laughter that it brought a smile to her lips as she got to her feet with the help of the nurse that was previously knitting a hat in a corner of the room.She had only agreed to let her stay in the bedroom because she found it extremely difficult to pick herself up from the bed after laying on it, she was like a proper whale now.“You know Mason, worrying till he could not anymore had always been his motto.” Mark laughed, and they all echoed it, each recounting a time when Mason almost killed himself with worry for no reason, and Mason sipped at the drink with a laugh, feeling thoroughly chagrined.*My God!” Young said softly and in awe as he stared at a th

Mason watched Scarlett gradually increase in size, and he had no idea what to feel, but one was sure though, the sight was dreadfully daunting. She was slim and fit one moment, and the next she was dragging her belly that had grown so big along that Mason was genuinely terrified that she might topple over one day, it was becoming a most genuine concern at that point.He was always hovering around and above her like a shadow, and knew that she was not pleased with it, but to Mason ever since she turned into an inflated balloon, she lost the right to decide what was best for her.The stay at home nurses he employed for her sake were paid to hover around her when he could not, and at that point Scarlett was venturing into crazy land.Mason knew that she was frustrated with his behavior, but he could not help it. She looked so tiny compared to her huge stomach that he felt the need to do something, anything, as this was partially his fault.He knew she said Children were blessings and tha

The two bewildered couple stared at the doctor in bewilderment for a solid thirty seconds. They did not understand a thing he had just said, and he only seemed to be smiling, Scarlett leaned closer to Mason.The doctor could see that they were having difficulties with coming to terms with the news, it was always like that with new parents after all, they were almost always shocked before the excitement kicked in.*You are having twins.” He said again, just to make sure he was clear, and the couple stiffened up as Scarlett slowly, very slowly looked up at her husband.“He said twins, Mason.” She whispered, and Mason turned to look down at her with a dazed nod, before turning to the doctor.“Show us.” He said, almost as if he did not quite believe it, and the good doctor nodded before resuming his roaming on Scarlett's stomach.“This is, should we say baby one?” He asked with a smile, and Mason nodded with watery eyes, at this point he was literally shaking, so much that Scarlett had to

Scarlett was quite happy with how well everything had turned out, the peacefulness of it was a bonus point as well. She was dreading the thought of a war as that had been what she had been experiencing for quite sometime now.So when she watched the gentlemen and their raucous ladies board the jets once again to take them back to their various continents she could help but ease up a sigh of relief.She looked at Mason with appreciation, and could see the relief in his eyes as well, he was as relieved as she was and perhaps even more so, ever since he found out that she was pregnant, all he had seem able to do was worry and fret, and as endearing as it was, Scarlet was getting quite worried about his mental health.Her hands drifted to her almost still flat belly and felt the little bulge that had pushed itself up a few days ago. She could not help but caress it now as it felt like she was shielding her baby from the world.She doubted even her husband had noticed the baby bump, should

Mason watched them carefully so as to be able to spot any looks of concern or shock or just anything that told him that they were unaware of this unfortunate news, Mason scoffed.*You do not seem surprised.” He said to them and Jonathan shrugged as he looked at him with a gaze straight from hell in all its mischief and grizt.“Listen, pretending to be surprised would be a lie and a cowardly action.” Rhode said with a straight forward and Mason venomously, even he was surprised by the depths of his anger, it felt unquenchable.“Your parents killed mine.” Mason said, no more point in hiding it, he came right out with it and said it, they both nodded.“They caused the car crash that happened, it was organized by them, and done so that no one would be able to escape.” Rhode said and Mason flinched back.“I cannot just let you both leave.” Mason said desperately, he didn't want to harm them, but at the same time was terrified of allowing them to walk away.“We were supposed to kill you as
