Mason woke up the next day with an abrupt knock on his door. He initially wanted to ignore it and get back to sleep but the knock persisted. Mason groaned out in frustration and stood up immediately, flying the blanket all over. He rubbed his eyes in a sleep manner and yawned out tiredly. "I'm coming." He said to whoever was at the door just so the knock could stop. It was getting annoying and that was because he was still feeling so sleepy. He had never felt so tired waking up. All his movement was calculated and defined, even his sleep. He has time to sleep, time to wake up and time to work. He has never been so tired before or to wake up sleepy. Mason shook his head vehemently to wipe the sleep off his face. He checked the time and it was still a bit early. He walked towards the door and flung it open and decided to show attitude at whoever had interfered with his sleep. His frowned face turned soft when he saw who was at the door. Jane! "Good morning." She greeted him with a
"Who was it? Who sent them?" Mason asked and braced himself for whoever it was. "It was your father. The king sent them. Their phones were scrutinized. Their call, their last calls and messages and it really correlates what they were saying. We traced it back and forth and the king sent them. But I don't understand why so I don't think we should jump into conclusion yet…" Mason cuts him off. He had suspected that the king was behind it but hoped that it was wrong. He would have been a bit relieved if it was the queen prior to them having beef and not in a good term. "It's okay and it's true." Mason cuts into his words. Jane gasped and stared down at the floor. She was really hoping it wasn't true. She was hoping that it wouldn't be him. Jane thought the king and Mason were on a really good term, no, they were. They were on good terms. They shared a bond. But why? Why does the king have to turn his back on his son over a trivial matter? Over her? Jane can't help but feel guilty. Whe
Mason put in his SIM card which Mr Job had given him this morning while escorting him out. They found his phone in a bad condition but saved the SIM card. He transferred everything to the new iPhone 13 he bought. Austin was beside him in the car watching him operate the phone and setting the necessary things. He kept glancing at him worriedly. "Are you sure you are okay?" He asked him. Mason had told him about the attack and about the king. He was so busy last night that he didn't bother calling him when he didn't call. It was this morning he noticed his absence and tried reaching out to him but to no avail. Then he got dressed up and wanted to head to his company since he was welcome any day any time. That was when Mason arrived. He was surprised to see him in his house since he hardly came over after he was bundled up with work. He hardly has any time to come over except he does. It was my chance and sheer luck that he met him at home. If he had left hurriedly, they would have m
Over there, Bianca was eager to know what was happening at the other side. She hadn't heard any news from there and she was getting impatient. Since she has some controversial photos and videos with her, should she edit them and send them to the press? The results she wanted to hear from the palace weren't coming up either. She remembered declaring to herself that either way it was, she would still put the photos out to the public to cause a scandal and taint their image. Bianca was tired of being called a former queen or an ex queen. The side she was on and lives in now was different from the other side. She can't wait to get back to royalty after finishing King Charles and Mason. She can't believe that with the love she showers on the King, he still kicked her out after pleading seriously with him without giving her a second chance. Shouldn't he have forgiven her and given her a second chance. Instead he believed some dumb investigation and didn't support her. He kicked her out lik
Bianca was disappointed at how little has happened over it. She wanted it to strain their relationship and cause a huge fight but nevertheless, she has her plan B with her. Bianca grinned wickedly and knew that it was time. It was time for this information to get to the public and escalate into a big issue. She won't be the only one to go down. Before that, she will edit it and make sure the photos come out perfect and confusing, giving a lot of controversial posts and topics. They will go down like her and she will work her way up back and trample all over them. Bianca carried her son's lunch and headed to his room. He hasn't left his room since and refused to meet anyone. Her cousin had gone to work leaving the two jobless people at home. Bianca rolled her eyes at the thought of that. In her Palace, even if she didn't go to work, she wasn't considered jobless. "Darling, son." She called out and put the tray down in front of the door. "I've brought you food." That was how he was a
Mason drove back to Jane's estate with rage. His father's words replayed in his mind. He made sure his security guys were close by so that the King wouldn't succeed if he tried what he tried the last time. Mason was disappointed with his father's reply. He thought he would try denying everything and bring up some excuse or some sort of convince him that he wasn't trying to kill him but only to scare him. Instead, he did none of that. He threatened him and his reaction says he will do more if he wasn't careful. Yes, the King's action was trying to relay to him that the King would do more if he, his son, wasn't careful. Was he even sure that Jane likes him? Or would he try to marry her forcefully with his King authority. Mason thought when his father became like this. Or maybe he has always been like this and he didn't know. He saved him from his wicked wife and son and exposed their secret. He treated him and did everything possible to bring him back to good health. And what he did
Mason walked into the company after one day of absence. The familiar smell and rush of cold air made him think he was absent for close to half a year, six months. Adrian Harvey, his assistant, rushed out to meet him and greeted him first. "Welcome back sir." He bowed to him. Mason stopped and chuckled at what he did. "You are acting like I was gone for the whole year man." Mason hugged him tightly to Adrian's disbelief. He nudged him playfully and proceeded into the company. Mason had informed Adrian about the accident which made him absent from work, that was why he greeted him that way. Mason has refused to make it public and wanted it to be private. He doesn't want it out in public, not like he would benefit anything from it. He already knew who did it and he would try to solve his family matter by himself. Public opinion and sympathy isn't needed. If the case was made public, the public would insist on an investigation which would not be favorable for the king and the royal fam
Jane and Mason arrived at the fashion show in a good mood. They were receiving more attention than before. It was for Mason! He did not receive this much attention when he was the Duke even though they did welcome him well but now, everyone wanted to share a word or two with him. It was like he was already the King in their opinion. It doesn't matter whether the coronation had taken place or not, he was the king already. Mason was really in a good mood so he exchanged pleasantries and pulled out a smile all through. Though, most were curious about his chief designer who clung beside him but they waved it off their mind and tagged it as a business trip. But the reporters wouldn't take it off their mind as they were already planning how to make a controversy and catchy headlines on it. After all, that's what reporters aim for. Jane wore a red gown which clung to her body, revealing her perfect shape. It exposed her bare shoulder and some skin. Mason admired the dress on her and couldn'
After two weeks, they planned on getting married again and finally did get back together with her lover. At last Jane's dream came true. On the night of their wedding, they got intimate. Jane was laying down on the soft, luxury bed without clothes, she was already done bathing, so she was having a fresh scent. When Mason came out of the bathroom with his towel hung around his neck and some drops of water dripping over his body, she couldn't control herself. He got an erection immediately as his eyes set on her. Those curves, that bubbling shape, he couldn't resist. Jane smacked her lips severally to seduce him as she licked her lower lip and bit it. Mason took off his bathrobe and went to meet her on the bed, laying on top of her with her legs spread apart while his body was right on top of hers. "I've missed this a lot." He remembered when he used to fuck her then at her estate, where he went to stay during the reign of his step-mom. "Oh yeah?" She replied with a seductive smile.
Mason freezes to the spot. He gets afraid that Jane will discover his true aim apart from being sick. He has something special and important to say to her, how he wishes she would just listen to him and stop being stubborn. "Wouldn't you let me rest before you begin your questions?" He asks her. "Oh well, sorry." Taking his hand, she led him to the dining room where she had set everything on the table. He was wowed by what he saw, he never expected that she could be so talented in cooking. "Wow, this is really nice, attractive, I'm sure the taste of the food would be as good as the scent." "Sure!" Jane affirmed. When he first saw her as a love interest back then, E just thought that she was this type of lady that doesn't do anything but would rather rely on maids to do everything for her. Perhaps this lifestyle changed after he broke up with her or when she was trying to compete for him to take her back. He shifted the seat and sat down with Jane seated beside him, they soon bega
"I wanted asking you to please prepare something for me, I'm doing something in the office now, I'll be back in the next one hour. I think I don't really feel well, can you help me with some delicious lunch?" Jane takes this chance to indirectly ask of Stephanie would be coming with him. "I should prepare for one, is Stephanie coming back with you?" "No, she will stay till 3 PM. If you wish, you could also prepare for yourself, we get to eat together." Jane smiles, she loves what she just heard and despite the fact that she pretended she despises this job Mason just gave to her, she is delighted. "So finally, I'd be taking the wife position in this estate?" She can't believe it. Most of the times when the chef is not allowed to cook, Stephanie takes charge of it, scooping the food for her. Though she always hate to eat her food, fearing that she might poison her or something, she had no choice. The chef would be relieved of his work because Stephanie would volunteer to cook
"Hmm," she sighs. Wanting to stick to what she just remembered, she mutes her mouth, rather than saying it out, she says inside of her. "I wonder why I'm so confident of seeing a book I saw in the dream here, what if it doesn't exists?"Jane brings herself to know that that was a dream, and this is the real world but she then she considers how she found the key to this place. She saw the direction in the dream, used if and succeeded, this is the same thing she is gonna be trying here.Moved with courage, she tries out her luck, taking each out to verify if the actual book she is looking for is here. Behold, it is! "Wow," She exclaims wanting to be more civilized. Her key interest at this point of being in Mason's life is not anything else other than love, what he thinks about her and who his main love interest is.If it was about his family history, she would have gone for that but it isn't. She finds a convenient place inside here and sits, placing the book on the table."This book
She reached the large metallic door of the documentary room, though there was no one, she scanned all around. Her heart was beating so hard. "I just know there there is CCTV placed everywhere but he wouldn't check it as he wouldn't suspect anything. I've ever asked about his mom or wanted to know about any member of his family, so he wouldn't suspect," She assured herself. One thing that would make her suspicious is if she panted or got nervous when he returned, she was determined not to frightened like she is trying to rush over before someone comes to see her. Realizing this, she maintains a steady composure, proving bold and purposeful as ever. The key is places inside the handle, the door doesn't gives too much time in pulling aside, paving way for Jane to pass through. The interior of the room was dark, unlike the other rooms and she began to wonder why it's so. Then she saw a huge marble on the world, she lit her phone torch to be able to read the content more conveniently as
There was enough time for Jane to explore the Documentary room before Mason and Stephanie returned home. She was determined to do exploit while waiting for Mason and Stephanie to return. On a normal day, there are lots of books that will interest her here but today everything seems different. Werewolf and billionaire romance novels which have always been her favorites seems repulsive. Her whole heart is on the secret book here which would be slated for only members of the royal family. "Only if I can get the code to this book." The book was kind of digitalized that you can't open the cover with the code and it was a four digit code. She stops to think about what she's liable to see inside if the library is open. "What if it's some fresh human skulls, remains of terrorists and scientists' bodies for practical? Do you know?" Her heart emphasizes. She feels like throwing up upon thinking of the possible outcome of the secret library. After much contemplation, she bent her head over th
"Hey, good morning ladies!" Mason greeted after waking up to find to find Jane and Stephanie in the living room. It seems they woke up earlier than him. He wanted to question why Stephanie didn't call him when she woke up, but then he remembered something more important. "Good morning, Mason." They replied him with stern faces, he now had to guess where the issue came from. Perhaps because Mia is gone, they were competing for who would be chosen between them. "How was the night? I learnt that Mia is no longer here with you, where did she go?" He tried making them a little bit pissed knowing they wouldn't want to hear anything about Mia. "I went early to check on her at the former provisions room I kept her but she is gone with everything that belonged to her." Jane muttered, still with a frown. "And you are frowning when you should be happy she's gone?" Mason teased. "You should even be glad that she didn't take anything that belongs to us, that's where more cry would have emerge.
Jane smiled with some thoughts upon hearing this, after a while it dawned on her that she is in the middle of a critical session and whatever she does is being taken note of. She hurriedly faked back her true nature. Their duel continues even after Mason left to freshen up, each time she would want to go up to take her bath using the stairs which links to the floor where Mason cohabits with Stephanie . Both hold her forcing her to stay in the living room. "You are going to remain on this floor, we are going to show you to your room." They take her to the far extreme of the second floor which was previously a store room. "Here is your room, you can't just escape from all that you did. This is paying time and you must pay for all you did to him through us!" Mason didn't care about the challenge Mia would be facing, he left for work. He later returned in the afternoon, but couldn't find Mia, he turned panicked because he has no key to get into the apartment. The spare one was noth both
Stephanie was in Mason's chambers fiddling with her phone when this message was sent, while Jane was watching the TV at the living room. They were supposed to go to sleep in their rooms outside but receiving this invitation, they didn't waste any time. Such privilege was rare, they wondered what Mia did which made Mason called them, they were glad nevertheless. Stephanie hastily got off the bed. She slid into her slippers, dressed in her pyjamas and walked out of the room. She couldn't believe that she is working in harmony with her arch-rival, Jane to serve Mason's purpose. She then placed a call on her and she picked it. "Hello Jane , she is coming up now, Mason just texted me. Let's get set for her, I'm coming down now." "Okay!" Jane replied and ended the call. In the next five minutes, Mia arrived with Mason, but Stephanie had already arrived at the living room before her. While Jane is sitting on one of the couches, Stephanie took her stance with her phone in hand, both of th
