CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED TWENTY-NINE*If only it was that easy...*"you are the heir apparent. You are his only child. So why aren't you involved in the dealings of your father's work?" Drake quizzed, his eyebrows rising in utter curiosity.Janice bit her bottom lip embarrassingly as she tried to form the words in her head, hoping Drake -the man she adored wouldn't look at her as a spoilt or adamant child or something. She doesn't want to be his bad book at all. Rather, she wants to win his favour, his heart if possible.She cleared her throat weakly and gave him a tight-lipped smile, wringing her fingers nervously underneath the table."Um... I believe every human being on earth is born with an innate passion, that no matter what happens you can't just force people to do what they don't wanna do, right?"... She paused, gauging his reaction.He nodded his head gently, encouraging her to continue.Relieved at his reaction, she carried on."So....what I'm trying to get at here is that I uh.

CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY *"...But tell me the one motive that no one knows. Why?"*As much as she hates to admit it, she had been nothing but a child.An adamant, rebellious child that always wanted what she desires without giving a second thought about what her parents truly wanted.Her father's words struck her;*"This...company is what is holding this family together for generations! It's our trademark. Therefore we can not afford to just whisk it away. You need to learn Jane because you will be in my stead someday. Do you understand?"* But then mother said I can follow my heart... And my heart has no interest in leading the company.But then, Drake's words also nibbled at her. He noted the repercussions that may ensue from both her actions and inactions. What does he really mean by that?If she doesn't take over the company then who will?...She got cousins but they never had a good relationship with her cousins or relatives except for her uncle. But then, he can't lead

CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY-ONE*So why would she suddenly become wary of the man that literally saved her life...*A secret that no one knows about? She pondered internally. What does he mean by that? What secret could she be hiding that no one knows about? She was befuddled. With a deep frown of confusion marred over her face, she quizzed. "How do you mean?" Drake chuckled and then reclined in his seat, resting his back so that he could look at her properly. His expression was, as usual, inscrutable. She could hardly make out what he might be thinking right now. Why would he ask her that kind of question though? She is confused as hell. "It's just an obvious question, Jane. it's not like I have an ulterior motive or something.." He shrugged. Shit! He didn't have to say that. He stilled his breathing as he waited for her next response, watching her reaction and gauging even the slightest twitch in her reaction. She swept her tongue over her dry plump lips before sh

CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY-TWO *"What are you hiding, Drake Hughen?"*"I think it's high time you come back don't you think honey? It's been five days and I think that's sufficient already and besides..." Janice rolled her eyes as she clutched the phone close to her ears as slumped into the couch with an exasperated deep sigh. "...and besides you have explored south Africa already haven't you? Plus, your big fashion runaway coming up in Paris. How is the prep coming along by the way?" Her father went on over the phone. "Well, the manager in charge is doing just fine Dad. Don't sweat it, I got everything under control." Janice said. In that instant, Drake padded to the exquisite living room almost naked except for the piece of shorts hiding his modesty. She almost choked on the glass of water she was about to put on her lips. She coughed roughly. "Honey? Are you alright?!!!" her father's worried voice rang through the phone. Drake quickly came at her side with a fres

CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY-THREE*"Careful what you wish for princess." *He didn't mean to gape but he couldn't help it. Did he give himself out? But how? He made certain that he threaded carefully. She had given him the impression that she trust him. Now what? Why the abrupt question? His jaw tightened as his brain attempted to concoct an answer to her unusual question. He forced a half smile at her and shrugged, feigning ignorance and confusion. Looking down at her, he asked. "What are you talking about, Jane? Hiding what?" She was silent as her inquisitive hazel eyes bored into his, searching for something he doesn't seem to understand. She giggled suddenly, making him even more confused.He arched a brow at her. "And what is funny?" She shook her head furiously while still giggling in childish relish. Smearing the tiny drops of tears collecting at the Corner of her eyes, she puffed out a deep breath and then said, "My God! The look on your face gets me holl

CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY-FOUR *"...So... Are you ready?"*With that determined glint in her eyes, there's no backing out is there? He puffed out an exasperated deep breath of resignation. But what could he possibly tell her? There is no way in hell he would sell out his family secret to their arch-enemy's daughter! No way in hell he would do that! Okay. So what lie could he possibly put together and feed her? She's beginning to get annoying really, poking her nose into his business. But then, if he doesn't say anything, her suspicion may grow and she may end up not trusting him. He certainly doesn't want that. "Are you gonna tell or what?" She snapped, as she drummed her toes on the carpeted flooring impatiently. "Why are you such a reticent person?" she asked, shooting up her brows dubiously at him. He tsked and ran his hand through his hair again. "Why do you care, Janice? I'm just your horse keeper." He held out his hand expansively, arching his brows at her

CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY-FIVE *But he didn't exactly lie*He hesitated before he replied. "Yeah... I suppose." He said flatly, gauging her demeanour to attempt guesswork of what sort of questions she might ask. The usual perhaps. Like questions bordering on his family. Questions he never wants to share. At all. The last thing he wants is to have anything trigger his sheer hatred for his brother. He doesn't want to rouse any suspicion whatsoever. He will have to work on his reaction to her questions. He should expect the worse at this rate. She rubbed her chin thoughtfully as she cooked up the series of questions in her head. One by one. "Well... Let's start with, um...your hobbies. What do you like and dislike perhaps?" she quizzed, as her curious hazel eyes scanned every inch and angle of his face. He better act in line! His reaction is under severe surveillance underneath those alert eager eyes of hers. He cleared his throat. "Well, I don't exactly have hobbie

CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED THIRTY-SIX*She is determined to know his past*"Don't you dare change the topic now!" She squealed at him with squinted eyes. "You think you are so smart huh?" He held up his hands in defence, shrugging off her accusations. "Of course, not. C'mon breakfast is set. Let's eat. I am famished don't know about you." She bit her bottom lip in resignation. "Fine. But so long as we keep this conversation going. While we eat." She said persistently as she reached for the cup of lemon tea and took a tentative sip from the steaming hot mug. Drake shrugged and reached for the bacon and scrambled eggs and dish his portion. "Alright, so I've answered the first question. Are there any more?""Not so fast you scheming fox!" she wailed. "What did I do this time?" He asked with an exhausted look on his face. "You know what! You didn't answer the rest." "Which are?" He asked, arching a brow at her feigning ignorance. She set the steaming mug gently on the table and
