2024-10-29 19:42:56Brietta Norman had spent several days now in deep contemplation. On one hand she was absolutely and ridiculously proud of the fact that she had stood up to the Rodneys and had put Ric Wilson and his disgusting sister Emerald in their place as well, and she puffed up with pride at the thought. But on the other hand, she knew she had to apologize to Michelle for her behavior.
You see, Brietta Norman was usually level headed when it comes to these things. She was Queen Bee afterall, and had been for as long as she could remember.
Now most people thought that a position like that was reserved for bimbos but it was not true. Being able to perfectly make people follow you, and look up to your every word takes more than its share of manipulative tactics.
But right now, Briett

Mason laughed with Jonathan as they were finally freed from a four hours long meeting. It was all very exhausting and was not the first thing Mason had wanted to do after his exhausting deal in Singapore.He smiled as he thought about how well everything had turned out in the end. The relief on the old man's face was a testament to his lingering humanity, and it was something Mason vowed to hold dear, but he knew that every single event in his life would test him, tempt him into ruthlessness, but still the relief in the old man's eyes and his thanks was something Mason was not liable to forget in a long time.“What's got you smiling?” Jonathan asked with a curious brow as Mason grinned into his cup of coffee.“What exactly happened in Singapore? He as

“I_its fine. Really.” Brietta tried one last time to get Mason to listen to her, but as usual, he was deaf to her pleas as he looked at her with what looked like very clear contempt.Michelle could not believe that the tables could turn against them so fast. She had not expected Mason to care so much about his friend, and she definitely did not not think about that terrible terrible thing called CCTV footage that catches you at your every unguarded moment and holds on to it like a virus.“It's not fine! I need to see if he really dared to steal from my family. So that appropriate measures would be dealt with.” Mason answered angrily, and Brietta flinched at the veiled statement.“W_well I mean if you insist.” Brietta whimpered, fighting th

The crowds shifted around eagerly as they stared at the two reluctant girls who looked like they were about to cry for a completely different reason now.“Well?!” One of the customers finally spoke up after waiting for a few minutes. “Are you going to tell us! Or released us from this damn prison!” He yelled and Mason turned to glare at Michelle and Brietta, his warning clear.“W_we will speak.” Michelle muttered. “Truth is_.” She stopped her statement, panting heavily at the thought of the painful embarrassment that awaited her.“We lied!” Brietta completed her sentence, her hands twisting and bruising each other as her eyes stared at the ground as if it was the most fascinating thing she had seen in a while.

Mason was unable to go inside that evening as he sat in his car and contemplated his choices. He was not guilty for what he did, and he definitely did not feel guilty either, he knew they deserved it, knew they deserved every single harsh word they received that day, but he doubted his wife would think the same thing.He could just feel the chill emanating from his house, most of the lights were off, and all in all the ambience spelt a certain doom for a certain person, most likely him. He sighed again, and contemplated working the night away at the company as an excuse not to go home, but he knew whenever he chose to, the confrontation would still happen, Scarlett would make sure of it.He stepped out of the car slowly, nodding to the many greetings he got along the way, he met Edna Roffman, his head maid, as she took his bag.

Michelle was much too embarrassed the next morning, as usual the saying that time heals all wounds was proven wrong once again, the wounds were still very much fresh, and the scars run deep. She could barely look at the Internet as people certainly had to say about her character without even knowing her.She realized it did not at all feel good to be on the receiving end of gossip and gate, and she doubted she had the mental capacity to handle it.~Mason noticed the tension in the air when he stepped into the grand building of Microloft that morning. Of course due to his status and position it was normal to expect a little bit of tension when he stepped into a room, but this was something else.Every em

Mason was beyond done with the childishness they were displaying. It sickened him that in this late age people could be so judgemental, so superior in their views and perception of themselves. It was sickening indeed.Turning to fix a stare on Brown, he made sure his stare was unwavering. He could see Ronald fighting a faint where he was standing, which made him wonder what gave such a spineless man the guts it took to do what he did.But Brown on the other hand seemed to be enjoying this little stare off as he sat up and made sure he was the sole object of Mason's glare.“An ill bred orphan you say?” Mason asked calmly. Nothing in him betrays his calm veneer. Tension crackled in the ballroom, and everyone seemed to be holding their breaths, suspended

Mason contemplated yet another report that laid in front of him. During the past few weeks the company had seen the highest loss of employees rate it had ever seen, and it did not need a genius to figure out why.Recently, he had been feeling a strong intent against his person whenever he stepped into the building, and whenever he turned, he would see the wimp Ronald Fidson hiding in a corner and staring at him so intensely that Mason felt a little threatened, it was that intense.“Yes Sir?” Rita greeted as she stepped into his office, he beckoned her closer.“What do you think about this? This is the fifteenth employee to quit on us in just two weeks.” He asked, and Rita sighed as she sat down.

Mason smiled in the dark as the screen changed to one of Ronald in the women's bathroom, trying to convince them to give up their positions and retire, but the women looked apprehensive and confused, mostly because Ronald looked so at ease in a female designated area, and didn't even flinch when they tried to subtly hint that he should not be there. He simply brushed it away.“Do not worry. I have spent half my life in women's bathrooms.” He said airily, and the ladies exchanged wary looks as they backed away from him and his strangeness slowly, but Ronald was so overcome with his supposed mission, that he didn't even look closely enough to notice their apprehension.The murmuring in the hall steadily increased as a clear path was formed around Ronald and he stood in the middle like some pariah.<

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.

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
