Jackson was pacing in the room being all angry when Mary entered.What's wrong with him!Seeing him like that, she wondered.She was about to ask him what was wrong but Jackson uttered all angrily, "He dare to cheat on me."Mary knitted her brows in confusion not getting him, "Who are you talking about?"Jackson again spoke up, "James. We lost the tender."Mary got confused, "What the!""Like it wasn't enough that we already decided to accept his daughter in our family, he dare to cross me. He dare to leak my tender code."Mary was giving him a disbelieving look, "James, like really?"Right then they heard a knock on the door. James was standing there with a worried expression on his face.Jackson just kept glaring at him as he entered the room and walked near him."Jackson, believe me. I didn't do anything. I didn't have any slightest idea about it."Jackson mocked at him, "Oh, yeah."James was already getting cold feet guessing the consequences. Making his fear come true, Jackson sp
Author's POV....Katrina smirked looking at Nathan's fallen face. She was about to say something but got interrupted."Tell me, Nathan." Jackson demanded an answer sternly.While trying to brace himself together, Nathan tried to say, "Dad, I.." but couldn't get to complete."I can't believe you tried to help them who backstabbed me."Nathan knitted his brows in confusion as Jackson continued, "You even tried to get help from Mack to save James."Nathan spoke up keeping his head down, "Dad, I was just trying to"Jackson spoke up again, "You were trying to do what, haan? What?"Nathan kept his head down."Don't even think of it. Anyways, I don't want to keep any relationship with them. Nothing at all. Do you get that?"Katrina and James exchanged glances being all shocked and James spoke up, "Jackson, you can't do that. It's just 2 days now before the wedding. You can't call it off now.""Oh, yes. I can." Jackson smirked.Katrina turned to Nathan who was looking at her with a forced exp
"Mom?"Nathan whispered and took a glance of Mack who also seemed to be taken aback.Mary entered the room eyes flickering between Nathan and Mack."Don't tell me, you are still trying to get Mack convinced about covering it up for Katrina. It's not going to happen, Nathan. We will handle it our way. So don't even bother trying. It will be of no help."Mom didn't hear us then.Nathan let out the breath that he was holding and glanced at Mack from the corner of his eye. His facial expression also got changed.Considering the situation, Mack spoke up, "That's what I was trying to convince him, Aunt."Turning to Nathan, he continued, "Forget her, Nathan. She wasn't good enough for you by the way.""Right." Mary joined Mack immediately.Nathan looked at his mother and laughed mentally at her word.What a joke!Mary spoke up in a serious tone, "Listen, from tomorrow you are going to join the office with Jackson. We don't want to drag this matter any longer. Get packed. We will leave from h
Amelia and Nathan were sitting by the poolside.Remembering her earlier thought, Amelia got uttering, “Nathan?”“Hmm?”“I am thinking of leaving this place and”Amelia didn’t get to complete as Nathan spoke up in between while giving her a questioning look, “What are you talking about? You will leave this place. Why?”She thought for a moment considering what to say to him.I couldn’t just tell him about his patents being so rude andHer trance got interrupted at this point.“Did anyone say something to you again?”Nathan spoke up softly looking at Amelia whose head was still on his shoulder.Amelia got her head away from his shoulder and turned to him, “No but I want to look for some other job somewhere.”“Some other job? Where?”“I don't know but..”“I will get you and Mom an apartment in few days. You will stay there till I handle my family. No need to work. You will join college.”Amelia got staring at Nathan for few moments and then spoke up, “No Nathan. We can’t take your suppor
Jackson was waiting for Nathan in the living room. But when he get didn’t get any sight of Nathan though he kept waiting for a while, he got pissed off.He forwarded towards Nathan’s room. Standing by the door, he got the sight of them talking something.Must be something worthless talks!Thinking this, Jackson yelled at them, “What are all doing here? And we are getting late, Nathan. Just get downstairs already.” and left from there.Amelia got her head down and left the room as well. As Nathan taking his clothes, got into the washroom, Mary got standing at her place confused.Wasn’t it for the first time for Nathan to behave like this?He raised his voice to me that even for a maid.What's going on happening actually!She was lost in her thoughts when Nathan got out of the washroom. Getting all ready, he left the room leaving his confused Mom behind.Jackson was taking his breakfast. Nathan also joined him. Few minutes later Mary got there and without uttering anything, she took her
Though it was Nathan’s first day at the office, Jackson made him worked hard and stay there till late with him joining every meeting and all.Finally, when they got back to the mansion, it was late at night. Getting a shower, he got downstairs.Neither Amelia nor her mom got into his sight which got him confused and worried for them as well.Is everything okay with them?He wondered.After taking his dinner with his parents, Nathan got back to his room and sat on his recliner.When he thought his parents as well as others must have fallen asleep, he got out of his room and went towards the poolside.He thought of seeing Amelia there waiting for him but no.She wasn’t there.He sat by the pool and kept waiting for her while going on with random thoughts.There was no sign of Amelia though Nathan kept waiting for her pretty long.When he felt, she wasn’t coming here tonight, he got back to his room thinking she might have slept early tonight.The Next DayEarly in the morning, Amelia go
Nathan's POV....Waking up in the morning, the first thing I waited for a knock on my door of my girl. While waiting, I got freshen up. But didn't bother to get downstairs.I got ready for the office. But still nothing happened of my expectations. “Where is Amelia actually?” I murmured to myself.She talked of leaving my house and getting some other job but I didn't get whether she already managed to get a job within a day.Even if she did, she would surely talk to me about that before going for it. At least I thought that.Feeling somewhat worried, I walked out of my room. I got downstairs and walked towards the kitchen. Her Mom was in the kitchen with Kaira.I walked towards her and was about to open my mouth but a voice from back interrupted me.“Nathan, you are ready, I see. It's good. Let's get going now. We have an early morning meeting. We will take our breakfast with them.” Dad said and started walking towards the entrance giving me no chance to say something. I was about to a
Amelia’s POV....“Hey.” Ryan got in front of me.I tilted my head a little. So it was his car. What was he doing here?Like he heard me, he replied, “I was going to the office. Where are you off to by the way?”I told him about the cafe and he smilingly spoke up, “Let me drop you.”“I will manage.” I tried to refuse Ryan when he offered to drop me at the cafe.Ryan kept looking at me, “Do you have something against me, Amelia? I noticed you always try to avoid me. Is there any problem? You can be honest with me.”“No. It's not like that. I just don't want to bother you.” I replied immediately in a defensive manner.“I just thought I would take the bus.”He got silent. The smile on his face faded away immediately.“I guess you don't think me as a friend or may be you are not comfortable around me. It's okay.”He was about to leave but I stopped him. “Ryan?”He had helped me at times. And after the last time, I really didn't want to upset him this way.“Drop me.”Ryan smiled heartily. I
