2024-10-29 19:42:56Jason was wincing inwardly but he knew that the damn butler was up to something. Yang had sent the food list specifically as per Alya’s preference. There was no way that Yang would include only non-vegetarian dishes.
Austin had been loyal to the Tang’s for years and was one of Cain’s most trusted men. There was no doubt that after hearing Yang’s instructions, Austin had manipulated the list to make grandpa Max believe that Alya loved meat dishes. But if Alya refused to eat, it would be an insult to Max because for him, food was a sacred thing. Anyone refusing to eat in his household would fall in his eyes.
I’ll have to deal with this, Jason decided.
“Come on, honey,” he said, trying to mimic a sweet tone. “Say ahhh!&rdquo

Alya had just finished her swim and gotten out of the pool, her tail changing back to her legs. She was about to grab a towel from a chair nearby when the door opened and someone walked in.“Alya, I told you to go to sleep-” Jason was saying as he opened the door. Alya froze and spun around to find him staring at her in shock. His face was becoming redder and even she was feeling highly embarrassed.“Y-y-y-y-you…” he stammered. Alya also stared back at him in horror and quickly grabbed a towel to cover herself.“WHY THE HELL ARE YOU NAKED?” he yelled. Jason immediately turned around to not look at her anymore.

Alya slowly entered the HR department. Unlike the rest of the building, the HR department was closed off and isolated from all other departments. There was only one window while the large space was divided into glass cubicles for the employees.There was a small break room at one end while a waiting area was set up next to it. The walls were coated with blue pastel paint which reminded her of the sea but the shade was much lighter. A faint scent of coffee and gum lingered in the air and even though it was not unpleasant, Alya scrunched her nose in annoyance. It was not a smell she was very fond of.She quickly scanned through the glass doors on her way. There were a handful of people in the cubicles, busy poring over stacks of documents or typing away on their laptops. No one spared a glance at her as she made her way towards o

Why aren’t you at school?”

Jason and Cain sped towards the factory. Cain was on the phone with his men, giving them instructions.“My men just informed me that Heath Seo was spotted outside that factory we’re heading to,” Cain told him. “How did you know he’d be there?”“I just do,” Jason muttered. Cain was suspicious but he did not ask anything else. He had filled in Jason about what happened at the Tang mansion that morning and even though Jason was tense, he was also worried about Maxwell.“Looks like grandfather took this well,” he muttered.“Well, he never really liked my mother in the first place so he wasn’t too sad seeing her leave,” Cain remarked.

Jason pulled up in front of a restaurant when he suddenly felt the familiar sensation in his heart.“Agh!” he winced when his chest became cold. He was gasping for breath and closed his eyes to lay his head on the steering wheel.“What the hell?” he muttered. “Why is that sensation happening again?”He touched his heart and it was colder than the earlier attacks. Jason was sure that it was a warning sign and that Alya was in immense danger. Flashes of her running through the rain were popping in his head.“Why is she outside?” he whispered. He was so engrossed in his pain that he did not notice a familiar Maybach pulling up behind his car. There was a knock on his window and to his surprise, it was Cain.

*Few Hours Ago*Monty arrived at the place where Jenna called him. It was a narrow alley located within an industrial area where several factories were meshed together. The buildings were in a series of rows, put side by side. A small dockyard was situated at the end of the place where a few ships were anchored.The workers had gone home for the day because the sun was setting. The gloomy clouds hovered in the sky, indicating that it was going to rain that night. Monty looked around for Jenna and finally spotted her standing a few meters away. He slowly walked towards her.“You called for me?” he asked.Jenna was wearing a pair of large sunglasses and she took them off to examine him.“Did you fi

Malorie quietly followed Cain to the patio and waited for him to talk. He was quiet for a while before turning to face her.“You should have told me about this,” he began. “That my mom was threatening you. We could have worked something out.”“I wanted to find our child first,” she replied in a small tone. “If I had told you, she might have gotten alerted and killed Billy. I couldn’t take the risk.”Cain stared at her for a while before sighing. “We’re both idiots,” he muttered. “We talk about being on our own but in the end, we let my parents manipulate us…”Malorie was staring at her fingers, unable to understand what to do. So many things had happened and it was going too fast.
