Kathleen povI was able to meet up in time, the traffic on the road wasn't that bad. I was five minutes late, at least Jason isn't back from the trip to scold me for coming to work five minutes late.I went to my office to get started with the bunch of work I left on Friday before going home. I didn't have time to finish because I had to go get the dress I had worn for the wedding.I turned on the laptop and began typing. Suddenly, the telephone rang out.On hearing it, I got startled. The telephone was only connected to Jason office and only when there a few calls for investors who would be coming for meetings.The first thing I checked was there wasn't any meeting holding in the company today because Jason wasn't around. I had canceled every meetings that was meant to hold in the company.The telephone range again. I stared at wondering who was calling, realization hit me immediately that it could be Jason.He could be in his office, but when did he get back.Fuck there wasn't any ti
Jason povI took an early morning flight to New York. I went home to freshen up and went to the company. When I got to the company, Mrs snow wasn't in her office and it was eight o'clock in the morning.She was late again.I walked to my office and opened the door, it was how I left it before I left for the trip. I went to the mini bar at the conner in my office. I needed a drink. I took a tumbler and poured myself a vodka martini. I gulped it in one goal and poured myself another one, I wasn't trying to get myself drunk. After three more shot. I dropped the tumble on the bar counter and went to take my sit. I turned on my laptop and began to check out the document I had saved in it. Thirty minutes later, I called Mr snow office thinking she would be at work now. It rung and she didn't pick the call for the first. Wasn't she in her office? I called again and she picked it before it cut. "Come to my office now." I demanded and hung up. What was s he thinking coming to work lat
Kathleen pov"What the fuck is going on?" Jason's voice snapped me from my thoughts. I glanced at him. He glared at me for some seconds before taking his gaze to Derek. "Heyyy, it Tony. The dude who got married before the both of us." Derek turned to Tony. "Am sorry that I couldn't make it to your wedding, I got some killing to do." Killing? What was he saying? It obvious he is drunk. Tony laughed out… It was kinda a fake but i missed hearing him laugh at my boring jokes. Lora and lizzy always say I am a bad joker but to Tony, I was really funny. "Uh, I get it… I get it." Tony said quickly.He walked to Jason desk. "When did you get back?" Jason asked. Tony shrugged."Three days ago." "So what are you doing here?" Jason asked. "We need to talk." Tony said. "Kathleen leave, cancel all my meetings for today." Jason said, already in a bad mood. I nodded and turned to leave. I closed the door gently on my way out. I sighed and began walking to my office. I already canceled
Jason pov"What the fuck is going on?" I glared at her for some seconds before taking my gaze to Derek. "Heyyy, it Tony. The dude who got married before the both of us." Derek turned to Tony. "Am sorry that I couldn't make it to your wedding, I got some killing to do." Fucking dick head. I glanced at Kathleen, she already has a questioning look on her face. What was he thinking blaring about the job he went for. Tony laughed out…"Uh, I get it… I get it." Tony said quickly.He walked to my desk. "When did you get back?" I asked. Knowing I don't care about that. Tony shrugged."Three days ago." "So what are you doing here?" I asked the question that I have been wanting to ask. "We need to talk." Tony said. "Kathleen leave, cancel all my meetings for today." I said, already in a bad mood.Whatever Tony was going to talk about was definitely going to put me in bad mood. Kathleen nodded and left my office. When she left left, I glanced at Derek who was already seated. "What the
Jason pov"Do you really want the job?" I asked. He nodded. "I won't be here if I didn't really need the job." He just wanted to be close to Kathleen, I will show what closeness means. "You could join the team. I guess they need extra hands in their jobs." I said dully. "Now leave my office." He didn't bother saying anything, he turned and left my office. Fucking asshole I wondered what my cousin sees in her. I should have prevented that wedding. I took my telephone and called Kathleen. He did be in her office now. I glanced at the gun on my desk. I should have fuck out a bullet in one of his leg. I scoffed. I should save it for him, I know he was going to do something that would give me a reason to kill him. I took the gun and put inside my drawer then closed it. She picked and I instructed her to be in my office right now. She entered my office few minutes later. I watched her closely to see if she was happy to see her ex. "Sir, you wanted to see me." She walked to m
Kathleen povWell this was new, having to stay under the same roof with Tony and always praying never to come across him at work was really hard.I won't deny getting over him, I wasn't and I know that for a fact. I was madly I love with that ass jerk for five years only to get dumped on a fateful day. Who on earth would want to believe me when I said I am over him?Any time I think about it, I just felt like going down stairs to his office and making him answer all my damn questions but I couldn't, I would probably loose my job for real this time.I feel like a joke wanting to see Tony so bad that I am always nervous anytime I get to work.We haven't seen each other since the first day he started working, and that was a good thing i mean what would I say when we see each other, would I just ignore him and pass like he wasn't the guy I fell in love with for five years.My office door opened and lady walked in like this was her office not mine.Well more like a bitch....I rolled my ey
Kathleen pov She smirked. "This is nothing compared to what I was going to do with you and the life of your stupid friends."I drew my brows. "What?My door pushed opened and Derek walked in.He was surprised when he saw how messy my office was and blood on the floor." What the fuck happened? "He rushed to me." Are you okay? ""What? Yeah I am but I don't think she is." I said. I couldn't get my breath stable while staring at the dripping blood, I was feeling really dizzy and nervous.Amy scoffed. "I see your not only satisfying Jason, you got Derek under your control too.""Why the fuck are you here, Amy?" Derek asked.She shrugged. "Nothing, just visiting."I took a step back getting prepared of what was about to happen. Derek noticed and held me."Are you alright, Kath?" He asked."Blood." I blurted.He glanced at Amy. "You don't mind trying to stop the bleeding."She shook her head. "It my blood, I can do what ever I want with it." she smirked."This isn't what I expected." We h
Jason pov The two month trip was just about killing, the rival mafia gang leader had estimated me so much to put up a war with me. Well I won't say I didn't enjoy killing everyone of them. It being a while since I have kill that much people, am just waiting for the perfect timing and that idiot thinks he could be worthy of the waiting. I have a feeling the two month trip had not only being planned by me but also some one else. I can't let my gut down knowing the kind of people that I am surrounded by. I need to investigate this and trace how it started. I go down from the plan, I decided to go to the office and find out things has being going on with my absence, I know Derek had everything under control. The one person I don't trust is Tony and his lover. I didn't contact her since the past two months but I hope she handled it well. When I got out of the elevator to my office floor, the first thing I noticed was Kathleen office. The door was opened. I walked to her office and e
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

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
