Kathleen povGiving the opportunity to leave early happens...... never when working for Jason. I don't know what had gotten into his head for him to give his permission to leave early without asking for it.The last time I left work early was when I went to see Tony, he found out that I had laid about my mum being sick and here we are, on another early leave without stressing.I grinned happily. Wait to see the look on Lizzy's and Lora's face.I took a taxi home after grabbing a bucket of ice cream. That would be what I will be doing today."Hello homies." I shouted so they could hear me from the door.I threw my purse on the on the couch and went to the kitchen. I dropped the bucket of ice cream on the counter and took off my jacket.I dropped it on the edge of the chair.I went to take a bolw and scoop."Kathleen?" Lora walked into the kitchen with her laptop in her hand.I smiled. "Hey girl.""What are you home?" She gasped. "Did Jason fire you already?"I shook my head quickly. I k
Kathleen pov"So......" Lora began."So what are you going to wear on your first real date with Derek?" I said redirecting the matter to her.She didn't say anything a while but just stared at me. "I haven't set a date.""What are you waiting for? He told me you decided to give a chance by going on a date so why are you taking so long to fix up a date." I said."Well today I am business, probably this weekend we could go out." She suggested. "What about you? You aren't saying anything on your party.""Ohh I got that taken care off. Lydia said she would set up a beach for the party." I said placing the empty bowl of ice cream on the floor."Lydia?"I nodded. "Yeah she is a friend of mine at the company. Don't worry I will introduce you to her on Saturday.""Wait what about Hannah, isn't she the only friend you've got at the company?""That before she left. I didn't mention that Hannah left the company a month ago.""I don't you did but good for her, she saved herself from that hurrible
Jason pov"Lady figlio dell'inferno." I called as I stood in front of her. She gave her sinister smile. "Young blood." She placed her both palm on my cheeks and pecked my forehead. Young blood? I fucking hate that name but she won't stop calling me that. She wasn't even that old with the ten year gab in our age. "I am so delighted to see you, Lady figlio dell'inferno." I said. She dropped her hands from my cheek and sighed. "I bet you are. It being a while, young blood. How are you doing?" "Well you see for yourself, I am doing wonderfully well and same goes to my company." I replied her. She nodded a little. "If that is it, we should do whatever we came here for." "Yeah, go ahead and sit." I offered and went to sit on my chair. Lady figlio dell'inferno sat down and crossed her legs. It was when the lady and I have been sitter, the others could now sit. Love seeing the look on their faces. "Well you must have heard that Tony and jasmine are married now." I filled her with
Kathleen pov"Who wants omelet made by me?"Lizzy asked as she walked to the sitting room with a plate of omelet."Nope, I am good." I diclined the offer, knowing the result the omelet she made. "Am filled even if I have an apatite, I wouldn't want to eat omelet." Lora said as she scrolled through her phone. "You girls haven't even tried it." Lizzy said."Have you?" I asked.She shook her."Then enjoy." I said and smiled.Lizzy a spoonful and shove it into her mouth.She scrunched her and nodded. "It good." She raised a tumb up.Lora stared at her. "Hmm, I could actually imagine the taste. Enjoy your meal, Lizzy.""Yeah." Lizzy quickly ran back to the kitchen."That would have tasted horrible than we thought it would." Lora said."How did she know how to make omelet?" Lora asked."Internet." I replied.Lora smiled. "That went bad then.""Kathleen, you have a call from a girl called Ariel." Lizzy said from the kitchen."Who is Ariel?" Lora asked."Jason cousin." I replied and stood fr
Kathleen povWe got to the packing lot, Ariel brought out car keys for her jacket pocket."Here is the key." She tossed it to me, I caught it and went to the driver's door.As we entered the car, we saw some people coming out of the company too. It was easy to guess that they were the people that Jason had meetings with."Finally the meeting is over." Ariel scoffed."Yeah it is." I murmured.I began wondering who they were, I haven't seen any of them or heard anything about them. This was my first time seeing this people here at the company.Were they also investors in the company?Then I saw Tony with the lady he got married to coming out of the building. They were holding hands with each other as they walked side by side.I got angry seeing him with her like happy couple, and how many days ago he was trying to get me to have a conversation.He was probably going to act sorry and apologized for dumping me the way he did.I stared closely and what draw my attention was her stomach. It
Jason povThe meeting was finally over and everyone were already leaving. Derek was with his parent while I took lady Lady figlio dell'inferno to my office."Nice office by the way. The last time I came here, it wasn't like this." She said as she slowly took of her jacket."Yeah I got it redecorated." I replied. I also took off my suit jacket and placed it on the chair. I rolled up my sleeves and sat down.The lady sat down and crossed her legs."So your secretary, is she still in the company?" She asked."No I told her to leave." I replied."I see." She nodded. "What about Ariel?"Surprise much, I knew she would have found out about Ariel coming back. It was a news for thoes who eyes are out watching."Ariel is doing great." I replied.Wait a minutes, I left Ariel in my office why isn't she here? ""Okay. I hope she okay now, with what she had passed through in the past, I was expecting her to return to take her revenge on thoes monsters." She said in an angry tone."It isn't her fig
Jason povDerek parent left after spending some time with me in my office, Derek went to see them off while I stayed in my office.The meeting went well if it wasn't for Mr dickhead who decided had decided to ruin my mood with his issues.What was he expecting, that I would marry his daughter after what happened five years ago. I didn't see that coming or ever happening.I was against the marriage between my brother and Lilian, but no one listened not even my parent. I knew match making them was wrong idea and it won't be good for the both of them.Except Lilian wanted it, that bitch had wanted to be part of my family, knowing when she get married to my brother, she would be the Don's lady when he takes over the Don's positions from my dad.She was so furious when she found out she won't be getting the love from my brother because he had someone who he was in love with. The only way for her was to kill them both.I haven't gotten anything any proof that she was the one responsible for
Kathleen povAfter picking Ariel from the the company, I took her to Jason place, that where she leaves now.I parked the car at the garage and came out of it.Ariel stared in the car, she has been quite for thirty minutes of the drive to this place. She rested her head on the window while her eyes were closed.I did thought she had falling asleep knowing she was drunk.I went back into the car and slightly trapped her. "Ariel, are you asleep?"She nodded."Okay we have reached your place, you could go to your bedroom and sleep." I said.She opened her eyes and looked at me. "I am hungry." "You could tell Nina to get a something prepared for you." I suggested. She shook her head. "I don't want eat what she prepares. She can't make cocktails or alcohol." I smiled. "I am not taking you to get drunk more than this." She pouted her lips and shook her head. I sighed. "What do you want to eat?" She sighed dreamily. "Soup." "Soup?" She nodded. "Dumpling soup." "Okay I am sure Nina c
Kathleen povA knock on my bedroom door woke me up early on Saturday morning. I had set my alarm clock to 10 am in the morning so I could get enough sleep when I hardly do during week days. "Kathleen, get up." I heard Lora voice as she entered my bedroom. "Why?" I slurred. "You have an early visitor, that the reason you need to get the fuck up." She said as she walked to the window. Visitor? Who? She spread the cotton allowing the morning the reflection of sun on my face. I quickly took the pillow to block the reflection of sun." Can you stop? ""Your weird friend is here to see, remind me her?" I took the pillow of my face. "Lydia? " Yeah that's lady."She replied. I remembered giving her the address to my place when I got home yesterday. I invited her for lunch not breakfast. "Well she's waiting for you in the sitting room. You should get up and see her before going back to bed. And don't you dare think of sleeping for another hour before going to see her." She said and wal
Jason pov"Come and take sit." I offered when I saw her enter my study she stood at the door.She walked to front of my desk and sat down."The investor coming today, did you reschedule the meetings?" I asked."Not yet, your schedule on Monday is tight and I don't know if you're taking the trip offer to Australia.""Ohh that? I had forgotten about that." I turned on my laptop began type. I wanted to get more information on the trip. I saw it wasn't a meeting with an ordinary investors. It was an important one. History Known by the names "The Honoured Society", L'Onorata Societa or La Famiglia to Italians but more simply as the Mafia to most Australians, the 'Ndrangheta has controlled Italian-Australian organised crime all along the East Coast of Australia since the early 20th century.My family got involved in them when we had business to take care of in Italy. Loranso was the one who pulled off the deal with the Ndrangheta. So we have being partners since then."I am going for the t
Kathleen povI dished out the soup into two bowl and placed it on the counter. Ariel and Jason sat down at the counter waiting for Nina to come try out."Okay, I still don't get it. Why did Kathleen have to prepare soup for Nina to have a taste? Is some kind of recruitment training or what? I thought Kathleen doesn't have any business here so is she here."Ariel asked Jason.Jason avoided her question as he kept on scrolling through his phone.I knew Jason doesn't want Ariel knowing so I kept quiet.Nina walked into the kitchen." Sono qui, signor cavaliere. "Nina said. (I am here, Mr knight) " Siediti e mangia. "Jason Instructed as he placed his phone on the counter. (Sit and eat) She nodded and sat down. I offered her a spoon and she took it. I watched her as she took her first and nodded. "Continue."Jason said. She continued eaten. " Okay if both of you don't want to say anything, I will have the second bowl. "Ariel said and took the second spoon from my hand. Jason didn't s
Kathleen pov"You did have to check the cctv camera to figure that." She walked to me. "You did well, Kathleen." I nodded. "But I shouldn't have lied.""Well don't feel guilty of doing that. It's just a lie, it won't kill you." Ariel said and tapped my shoulder.She walked to the fridge and opened it. "Something smells nice, is it what Nina is cooking?" She asked.Ohh the soupI hurried walked back to where I was cooking."Uhm, Kathleen are you the one cooking?" Ariel asked as she slowly closed the fridge while glancing back at Jason and I."Yeah I am....""It none of your business, Ariel." Jason said, stopping me from explaining to Ariel.She smirked. "You obviously didn't notice, Kathleen now is part of your life whether you want or not" She opened the bottle and drank from it.I glanced at Jason, he was glaring at Ariel. I decided to focus on the soup I was preparing.If this was the reason why he wanted me here, then I wanted to be done with this and leave this house."Where did y
Kathleen pov After having lunch with Jason, I found myself in the kitchen making soup.I can't believe Jason thinks I drugged him. Why on earth would I do so?I began preparing the soup while Jason sat at the down, working with his laptop.Nina wasn't in the kitchen, probably doing something else."Did you see Ariel on your coming here?" Jason asked.I remembered Ariel telling me not to inform Jason that she went out."Uhm," I shook my head. "No I didn't." I started starring the soup vigorously. Hoping he didn't figure that I was lying."Ms snow." Jason called.I stopped starring and held the spoon tight, I turn around to meet Jason gaze on me. "Yes, Mr knight.""Come take a look at my computer screen." He said.What? Why would I do that?I stood at my position without making a move."Don't make me repeat myself, Ms snow." He said, his tone was cold and deep.I nodded. "Yeah sure, I will."I dropped the spoon in a bowl and went to where he sat down." Take a look. "He pointed at the sc
Jason pov "Ms snow." I called. I saw how she spaced out while I was asking her questions relating to the report she sent to me. "Yes Mr knight, did you need anything else relating to the reports?" she asked like she paying attention to me. " You weren't paying attention to what I was saying so don't pretend. You zoned out, do you mind telling me what in your mind?"I asked. She opened her mouth to deny but had a second thought. She did know I knew when she decides to lie. "I was th......" The knock on the door didn't let her finish what she was about to say. "Yeah come in." I said and the door opened. "Signor cavaliere, il suo cibo è pronto nella sala da pranzo." Nina said as she stood at the door. ("Mr knight, your food is set in the dining) "Ci Sanremo." I replied (We will there) Nina nodded and left my study "Food is ready, Ms snow. Let go eat." I stood up from my chair and walked to the door. Kathleen did the same and followed me out of the study. We walked to the di
Jason pov"I want you in my house now." I instructed and hung up.I threw my phone on the bed after I hung up the call.Her soup couldn't be the reason I slept and woke up late right?I shook my head, yeah it can't be.I felt so relieved, it being a long while since I had this feelings. If it was the soup which it couldn't, I did want to know what she had add into it.I went to the bathroom to freshen up and get ready to see Kathleen.After few minutes later, I had freshen up and gotten dressed.What I need now is my breakfast.I went down stairs and saw Kathleen with Nina, she was trying to speak English so Nina could understand.Doesn't she know Nina doesn't understand English, even if she tried it was a waste of time."What going on here?" I asked on my way down the stairs."Ohh uh, it nothing, Mr knight." Kathleen said as she faced my way."Devo prenderle il servizio da pranzo, signore?" Nina asked. (Should I get the dinning set for you, sir?) "Sì Nina, impostalo per due." I re
Kathleen povI haven't seen Jason all morning and I haven't heard from Derek when he left my office to his. I I had to cancel his appointment in the morning thinking he would be late today but not this late. I wanted to call Ariel to check up on Jason but I changed my mind.It was lunch hour and I had made plans to meet up with Lydia for lunch.As I was about leaving, Derek came into my office with a confused look written across his face."Jason isn't in his office, has he being here this morning?" He asked.I shook my head. "Nope not even a call or message from him. I am staring to get worried, Mr Derek."He sighed deeply and shook his head. "I have to hear from Ariel."He brought out his phone from his pocket and dialed ariel's number.She didn't answer the call at first but called back a second."Jason hasn't been to the company this morning, Ariel." Derek informed. And I couldn't hear what her reply. "What? He is fucking sleeping by this time of the day? Are you sure of what you
Kathleen povI arrived at the company three minutes earlier, sure Jason won't be here before me.I went to my office to get Jason scheduled ready for today.I placed my pruse on the desk and went to make a cup of coffee for myself.After making the coffee, I starred it but almost got in on my clothes when I got startled by the knock on my office."Ohh sorry, I didn't mean to startle you like that." Lydia said as she walked into my office."Ohh don't worry, I didn't get my clothes stained." I said and walked to my desk. "Coffee?""Yeah please, I really need it." She said and sat down. I when back to make coffee for Lydia."So how are you doing?" She asked.I nodded. "Am good. You're early today.""I am always early if you haven't noticed it." Lydia said and crossed her legs.I brought the cup of coffee to her and handed it to her."Is Mr knight in his office?" she asked."Nope I don't think so." I replied."Hmm, I kinda of thought he do come early to work everyday.""He is the boss, he
