chapter 12"Mason, What are your thoughts on this suggestion?""Grandma....The glare from the woman 's eyes was bright enough to remind him."I mean, lady Fei. you shouldn't do this, lady Fei. It takes a long time to turn a profit and adequate capital is needed. This suggestion on the other hand should be accepted because it won't cost you much money and will likely result in greater profits for you quickly.""Do you understand what he said, secretary?""Yes, old ma'am."She turned to face Mason with a look if disdain. "This is the only reason you're still here. Save for this, I'd have thrown your sorry ass into the streets where you belong."Mason's stomach sank. What little respect he had for the old hag before had vanished like smoke. Mason is flawless when it comes to business. His superior intellect and cunning mind make him an asset in the biz world and the company has been fortunate enough to acquire his services as the main intelligence liaison for the chairman. He is truste
Chapter 13Tanya finally arrived five hours later, but she didn't bother to say sorry to him.He could clearly see that she had hickeys on her neck, and she wasn't trying to cover them up.Seeing those marks made Mason more depressed than ever. It made him want to vomit. He refrained from speaking because he knew that if he did, she would be offended."Mason, why aren't the garments being washed?" was heard at the Hans mansion."There's a problem with the washing machine.""Why not wash them with your bare hands if the washing machine is broken? Can't you use your useless hands to wash these garments in the twenty minutes you have left?Mason and Mrs Fei were having a talk at the time.Mrs Fei, Mason's mother-in-law, began to ascend the stairs but halted midway and warned, "Tomorrow is my mother's birthday; don't dishonor the family and, if you can, don't step foot at the celebration. After all, the invited guests wouldn't want to mingle with a commoner like you." She said in a sarcas
chapter 14He was sent away from the house and received nothing from them. He was depressed and sad and angry all at the same time.He couldn't understand how people could be this wicked. People he had spent three years with. He had helped them get to the limelight. He had been there for them during their down times and they had consistently thrown him away. Why?He was close to them and yet they tossed him away. He got more depressed and more angry every time he thought about it. He started feeling a hopelessness that no one in the world could love him. He got tired of constantly being rejected and felt more depressed and angry.He had nothing save his clothing. On the elderly woman's birthday, he wasted his last remaining savings. If he had known this would happen, he'd have borne the shame and not give her anything. He'd have had something to live on. Be remembered how he was reduced to tears during her birthday and he felt so empty.He stood at the door without hope, tears welling

He must figure out how to bring together these two families.Can the two families live together in harmony and learn from one another?The hardest night of his life was last night. He was soaked in the rain, and the store was powerless to save him. He remained upright till the rain stopped. But there is always hope. There is always hope.In other words, you have hope that someday, if you wake up early enough in the morning and take a chance at life, things will go your way. He managed to get a brie
Chapter 16"Young master, your clothing, accessories, and shoes are all in the next room. Call the servant at any time; they are now your property. With them, you have complete freedom. Go ahead, eat, take a bath, and wash the smell of battle off of you."Mason was shown about the mansion by the butler before he left. It was really huge with some nice rooms and a big living room. It was almost like a hotel and there was still a number of servants. The decorations, furnishings, and the language used were from an old era but it was still an excellent place to stay.Mason entered his closet and unlocked it when the butler departed. It was crammed with pricey clothing, jewelry, shoes, bracelets, and watches. from a wide variety of markets. He had never before seen any of these pricey possessions, all of which belonged to him."Mason, you must be asleep; this is a dream." He lifted his hand and slapped his face really hard. When he felt the pain, he shouted. "Oh no, this is not a dream. W
chapter 17When Mason's assistant saw how tired a d weak the old lady was becoming,he felt concerned. Not Concerned for her but for Mason. If the old lady were to faint here, it'll bring a bad name for them. He went in to meet Mason. "Young master,the old lady is still out there waiting for you."Mason looked at him with furrowed brows. "I know that! I was the one that asked that she waits.""I know going master but.."Yes sir." He bowed slightly and left.Mason did not even bat an eye or act like there was someone waiting for him, be just shrugged and went back to workingThe old lady went to the receptionist. "Why is your CEO keeping me this long? I thought you said he is not in a meeting, why hasn't he asked me in?""I don't know ma'am." Just then, the assistant walked out. "You can ask him. he's the one that would know."The old lady walked up to the assistant. "Is your CEO this heartless? Doesn't he know that I am an old woman and I need to be treated with respect? Why is he keep
chapter 18Mason awoke with a gasp. He opened his eyes, confusion clearly in his expression. He laid still trying to make sense of figure out where he was.It was definitely not his room. The ceiling was like the night sky. He say up slowly and placed his legs down only to discover that there no was nothing beneath him just a vast stream of darkness."Ahhhhhh…" Mason cursed under his breath. He stood up quickly and attempted to steady himself. He found himself making a huge vertical drop into a cloud and bouncing off the inside.He remembered the last thing he saw was his reflection. He stood where he was, nothing but a black cloud, he couldn't see, hear, or touch anything.Where am I? He thought. Am I dead? "No! You're not dead" he heard a voice answer him. He turned around to see how it was but there was no one else in the dark."Hello?" he called again"Yes. I'm here" The voice answered.Before he could think of anything to do, he heard the voice again. It said, “Do you know where
chapter 19Mason had no memory of what had happened to him that morning, so when he saw himself on the floor of his bathroom, he just thought he had fallen and knocked himself unconscious.He stepped into the shower let the water pour over my head and down his body. As the water ran over him, he could feel his muscles relax and his mind was clear.The cold water was relaxing and it felt so good.He put his hands on either side of the showerhead and just relaxed as the water ran down over him.His body was cleansed and got out. Today was his grandfather's birthday and he had to finish work on time so he'd better get going.* * * *Tanya did her best to look good. Her goal was to seduce Mason, so she had to look her best. She wore a red dress that showed off her curves and made her feel sexy . It had spaghetti straps and the low cut bodice looked perfect. Her hair was styled in a loose, wavy bob. She had her light brown highlights tinted to bring out the blonde highlights in her hair.
