JASON POVNot getting what she was expecting, I watched as Rachel shaking. Or rather trying to control her emotions. "Jay, you…""Rachel, you should know me better. Or did you plan this?" I asked, raising my brows."Jay! I-how could you think that of me!" She asked, fuming. Then she got up angrily and walked out of the office after mumbling what no one could hear or understand."Pathetic." I said just after she shut the door.She wanted to help but, with marriage attached? That was a crazy offer. I never thought it would get to this. Why not just help out? Divorcing my wife for assistance."Why did you turn down such a great opportunity? From the look of things. Her family are, right now, among the top richest in the nation. Imagine what his connection would do. Like, we could even sue the rival company and get the culprit behind this." Charles said with a smile, and I glared at him. Pretending not to have heard him.Though, I love the fact he stood to his words. Not a word was hear
Violet Pov"And you are a homewrecker!" She barked at me."That's weird. If I remember completely, you had both broken up when we met. The only thing I broke is your ego. You are mad that you can no longer use him. You are a piece of shit Rachel and I hope you find the help that you need "With that I plucked my bag from the coffee table and stormed out of the coffee shop.I was already in tears before I got to my car. What the hell was I going to do ?I spent the rest of the twenty minutes crying in my car. I was so upset about everything.Just when Jason and I were planning our life together, this had to happen and I was positive it was all Rachel's doing.Why couldn't everyone just leave us the fuck alone? It was like everywhere I looked someone wanted something from me. I just wanted a little break.Taking a deep breath, I wiped my eyes clean with a paper towel I found in my car and drove home. As I drove home, I tried calling Jason but I was constantly sent to voicemail.I wasn'
Jason's POVI just got to the company, as usual, and got greetings from everyone. My secretary approached me with her smile that made me remember Violet. Her smiles had always cheered me up. I got to the office and sat on my seat and was ready for the day's work when my phone started ringing."Sir, you got a call." My secretary pointed it out but I waved at her to leave it. I didn't need any distraction. Ever since the leaked project, I've been very careful and make sure whatever that is being carried out has my full concentration.Then the phone rang again and this time, I signalled her to pick up since I was so focused on the document submitted to me."Hello, please how may I….." She didn't say anything else and I turned to her direction. Curiously waiting for a response.Without a word, she turned to me before dropping the call. Finally breaking the awkward silence."Sir, I was told your wife is at the mansion. Source said she's being questioned by your family members. I don't und
Rachel's POVI was angry. So very angry at the way Jason had just been behaving to me. Seated in my car, outside my house; I let out a loud scream as I punched the steering wheel. "You're going to regret this, Jason. You just wait and see"And to think, I was doing everything within my power with the intention of saving the company?. It doesn't matter if I was the one that put his company in the current state it was--I was still doing my best here for him!--I chuckled over my stupidity. I should have known better. Now, I wanted nothing more than to see Jason completely ruined. So completely ruined that he'd come back crawling on his knees back for me; I was going to make that happen!. Controlling my breathing the best way I could, I stepped out of my car; slamming the door shut as I trudged into the house. Making my way through the front door, I see Mother setting the dining table. On noticing my presence, she flashed me her brightest smile. "Rachel, you're home? Dinner would be
Violet's POVFidgeting with my nails, I remained restless in my room.I couldn't just sit still and watch while everything Jason worked so hard for get ruined. I had to do something. Anything. As I reached out for my phone to call Michel, I suddenly hesitated. "Jason wouldn't be happy if he finds out about this"But just before I could put down my phone, my phone rings; displaying Michel's name on the screen. "Speaking of the devil, " I breathed outRather than finding his call suspicious, I picked up in a heartbeat. "What is it ?"Michel lets out a deep throaty chuckle. "You picked my call up within seconds. Do you miss me that bad?""I'm hanging up.""Wait!" Michel blurts out. "Let's meet up"I looked around to see if Vince was still asleep and he was. Peeping through my window, I count the number of guards outside the house.Confirming that there were none at the back of the house, I agree to Michel's demands. "Where should we meet?"I might as well use this opportunity to find o
Michel's POV"Wait" I say softly, calling Violet back. "What else do you have to say?" she grumbled. "Do you know?" I questioned. "You should never trust people so blindly""What? Was everything you said to me a lie just now?""No" I say honestly. "But I'm not talking about that"I point towards the glass of orange juice she had just drank from. "In the orange juice you drank from earlier.." I drag out slowly. "It was poisoned" I let out a long laugh as she suddenly got silent, horror masking her face. "You didn't expect it, did you?""If you don't bring the money I'd asked for in the next 24 hours" I threatened. "You die"She widened her eyes at me and I smirked."If you do, I will give you the antidote," I added. But regardless, she still didn't say anything. Shouldn't she be begging me to live? She must have thought that I was joking. As I watched Violet climb into the cab, a thin line formed across my lips as I picked up the glass of juice that she had drunk from. I waited for
Jason's POVAfter meeting with Martin and Charles, I'd gone back to the company to attend to the appointments I'd made my assistant push back. "One of the clients is already here," Alex, my assistant, informed me. "She's waiting in your office"I nod my head, making my way to my office. Pushing the door opened, I see a red haired lady with black sunglasses on. Her legs were crossed and her arms folded. Her name is Veronica Park, one of the most influential business women there was in the industry. She made her fashion brand and clothing line from scratch with her own efforts….impressive, right? "This would be the second time you are pushing back an appointment with me" Veronica took off her glasses. "Are you openly telling me that you don't want this partnership anymore?"I walked over to my seat. "I apologise. Something important came--" My phone chimed interrupting me. I'd looked from Veronica's stern face to my phone. "Just a minute"I'd picked up my phone and saw that I'd rece
Rachel's POVI never expected that Jason would be so good to have come straight to the police station with such evidence. He must have been crazy for that bitch. If I had known that shw would be able to capture his heart, I would have taken care of her for a long time.Well I'm still glad because I have grandpa Clarksville at my side. He'll definitely be of use to me. "Let's go home, honey" My parents advised as we left the station after seeing grandpa Clarksville off. "You and father should get going," I responded. "I have someone I want to visit""Be safe then" Father advises me before climbing into his car.As I watched the car disappear into a tiny dot, I pulled out my phone; calling Michel. "Hey!" I screamed immediately he answered. "Where are you?""Stop shouting" He draws out. What? Was he actually kidding me? I'd paid a whole 2 million fucking dollars and he failed to get the job done and what? I should stop shouting? Taking in consecutive deep breaths, I questioned. "Whe
