TWINS FOR MR. BILLIONAIRE A Flash of Light
"If there is anyone who is out of place right now, I'd say that is you, Uncle Luke; don't you think so?" Jason asked as he walked towards them.His palm balled into fist at his side as he stopped at his mother's side."Jason! I am your uncle; I won't take such a tone from you," Luke North said, trying to speak with the confidence he lacked at the moment in the presence of Jason."You should show us some respect, Jason; we are your uncles," Terry North interjected for emphasis.Jason turned to stare down at Terry North, who looked away, unable to bear the brunt of Jason's stare."You should behave in a way that deserves respect, and right now all I see is you disrespecting my mother," Jason fired back at them.Luke North's face was puffed up and red with anger as he stared at Jason."You have always been this way, showing off yourself because our father made you the sole heir to all that he has," Shawn said from the entrance.Behind him, they could all hear the merriment and laughter t

"Oh my god!" Gift exclaimed, more from the sudden light than from Jason's sudden grip on her arm.Blinded for a few seconds by the light, Jason hesitated before he quickly pulled up the window."What was that? It looked…" Gift was saying, and then it dawned on her as her face filled with understanding. She added, "Oh, a camera.""Why did you just open the window to cry out loud, Gift?" Jason asked, pissed off at the fact that a picture of them together, coming from his father's house, had just been taken.Charlie had slowed down to turn onto the main road, which had been the only advantage for whoever had taken that picture."I just felt like it," Gift explained, not looking as worried as Jason."Just when I thought there was nothing for them tabloids to spew about tonight, you go ahead and give it to them on a platter," Jason muttered in frustration."I really don't see how this is a problem; it was a family dinner; there was nothing special there to talk about," Gift retorted.Jason

There she was, looking like she had walked out of the pages of a fashion magazine.Jason felt the rush of blood in his head, and for the second time, he felt himself move in ways he thought impossible."What the hell is she doing here?" Gift muttered."Who are you talking about?" Jason asked, wondering how Gift had acquired Laura.While they spoke, Laura saw David up ahead waving to her. She smiled and walked up to him."Hey, you look amazing," David said to her as they hugged."You're not looking bad yourself," Laura replied, feeling more relaxed now that there was a familiar face to talk to."I'm actually surprised to see you here. Are you familiar with any of the actors, or are you just a movie lover?" David asked.Laura smiled and answered, "It's neither; if I told you the reason I'm here, you'll think I'm crazy."David chuckled and said, "Try me.""Okay, it's a peace treaty; I'm trying to keep the peace between myself and some very persistent authority in my life," Laura explaine

"Why do you boys always love to cause a scene?" Pamela said, shaking her head at Jason and Jared. "Uhm, Jason, would you guys stop this? We are at a fr**king movie premiere, not some private house party," Jacob interjected. "Uhm, I think we should all head inside; attracting attention isn't going to be so good," David stated. As Jason stared down at Jared, Laura shook her head, stepped towards David, and took his hands. "Would you care to walk me in?" Laura asked. Startled for a second, David hesitated before answering, "Uhm, of course, let's go." He curled his hand, and Laura placed her hands through his, and they walked into the theater, leaving the group. "Now, that right there is what I'm talking about," Pamela said with a grin while Jacob winked at her. "If you will, my lady, the boys can join us inside later," Jacob said, extending his hands to Pamela. "With all pleasure," Pamela replied, taking his hands. "Whatever this is, you guys can sort it out later, but I suggest

Laura turned slowly, her eyes narrowing at him as she asked, "What did you just say?"Jason stood his ground, not bothering to walk up to her. He knew he had just overstepped all boundaries, but he didn't care. She had a way of getting him annoyed while still maintaining her ever-calculated demeanor.Jason placed his hands in his pocket, shrugging like he didn't care as he replied, "I asked if you left town because of Jared. Maybe your child...""Don't you dare!" Laura barked at him, interrupting his sentence.She moved towards him, her steps slow like those of a cat about to pounce on prey, and stopped just inches away from him.Jason's voice was low and menacing as he asked, "Did I just get under your skin?"Laura extended her head to Jason's left ear and whispered, "If you ever bring my child into a conversation between us, you'd regret having ever met me, Jason North."Jason watched her go, his eyes filled with a mixture of fascination and indifference. Despite how annoying she wa

The elevator was silent for a minute as the occupant froze just as the elevator came to a halt."What just happened?" Tim muttered, bringing out his phone to switch on the light.He turned the light behind him to see Jason and Laura staring each other down, oblivious to the darkness that surrounded them."Tim, when is this coming back up?" Jason asked without turning away from Laura.How am I supposed to know that? Tim thought, but answered, "I believe it should be up in a few minutes.""So much for the North Hotels," Laura muttered to herself, folding her hands as she turned to face away from Jason.Jason was pissed that this had chosen to happen while he was in the elevator with her. A few seconds later, the light came back up, and the elevator jerked to work."So much for the almighty Laura Phillips," Jason muttered loud enough for her to hear.Laura shook her head. "Even Liam won't behave in that way," she murmured."Vivian would be more understanding if you asked me," Jason mutte

The door opened, and to Audrey's surprise and Laura's annoyance, Jason North stepped into the office like he owned the place."What are you doing here?" Laura asked.Jason walked over to the couches placed to the side of the office and had his seat. "I am here as a client; I believe that's not how you speak to your clients."Laura was pissed that he had come into her space to behave like the boss of all."Uhm, Mr. North, I'm not sure I received your appointment; I would have informed Laura of this meeting," Audrey said."Oh, that's fine; I'm sure you don't take just clients who make appointments; I decided to do a walk-in visit; it's not against any law, I'm sure," Jason said with a shrug.Laura stood up, closed her laptop, and walked around her desk to where Jason was sitting."Showing up without an appointment is rude enough, and if this has something to do with you getting me to talk..." Laura was saying, but Jason cut her off."Oh, don't flatter yourself; I have a lot more importa

The door opened, and Lily walked in, her brows raised as she asked, "Whose time is up?"Laura's mouth hung open at the sight of Lily, more from how she looked than from the fact that she had heard her last statement."Uhm, it's nothing," Laura stuttered, getting up quickly and moving to Lily's side, extending her hand to her.She hugged her and then escorted her to have her sit at the desk."You would have told me you wanted to see me, and I would have come straight to the house; you don't so well. Is something wrong?" Laura asked.Tina and Audrey were awfully quiet from where they stood. Laura looked back and saw the look on their faces. She raised a brow at them, but they only shook their heads."Audrey, get me water to drink, please," Lily stated."Okay, Mrs. Whites, right away," Audrey answered, and she stepped out of the office."Lily, what is wrong? You look like you should be at home and in bed," Laura said again."I'm fine, Laura; I just wanted to come check up on you and see

Shawn and Tobias looked back instantly, and the shock on their faces was so appealing that it brought a smile to Lily's face. "Laura? What are you doing here?" Tobias asked, looking shocked. "You look like you've seen a ghost." Laura said as she walked over and sat in front of them. Before they could answer, they heard a knock at the door, and Laura said, "Oh, that must be him." "Aunt, I thought you said she left," Tobias said, looking at Lily. Lily remained silent and only responded with a shrug. Laura opened the door, and Jason walked into the office, a sight that only made Tobias more scared and Shawn visibly angry. "You were saying something about my family," Laura said, addressing Shawn. "What is going on here? Why does this feel like a trap? Are you suspecting us of something?" Shawn asked, standing up suddenly. "Nobody is suspecting you of anything; we are just asking you about your last statement," Lily said, breaking her silence. "You know what? I'm leaving. I only

As soon as they were alone, Jason turned back to Laura and said, "Let's hear it."Laura shook her head and replied, "Jason, up until this morning, I didn't have the information I have now. I was actually trying my best not to be angry at you.""Why would you be angry at me? If for anything, I should be the one pissed, because you were not picking up my calls and you left without any notice from the event that day.""I know, but if you hear me out, then maybe you will understand my reasons," Laura said, holding up her hand."Okay, you have the floor," Jason said as he took his seat a few feet away from her."I came back to town to find my mother and to find out what happened to me seven years ago," Laura said.Jason was silent as he watched her speak, his expression neutral. Laura brushed her hair behind her neck and continued to explain her mother's relationship to Lily."Suffix it to say that I found my grandmother, but I was not able to find out what happened that one night that I c

Grace walked into Jared's office, demanding to have an audience with him."I'm sorry, ma'am, but you can't go in now; he is not on sit," the receptionist said apologetically."I know he is in there; tell him that if he does not see me now, he won't like the next news he hears," Grace responded.Having no choice, the receptionist put a call through to Jared's office again and relayed the message.After a few minutes, she dropped the phone and said, "You can go in, ma'am.""I thought as much," Grace replied, and she walked straight to the elevator.It had been radio silence since her last confrontation with Jared, but now she was going to rain down all the anger she felt within on him."I told you not to come here, Grace," Jared said as soon as Grace walked into his office."I don't give a damn what you say any longer, Jared," Grace replied with scorn."What exactly do you want, Grace?" Jared asked."What do I want? Huh, that's rich coming from you." Grace replied, adding, "You know I h

Lily was surprised to hear that, so she gripped her hand tightly and asked, "What else is there that I haven't said?"Laura shook her head and replied, "No, not you; it's from me.""Oh, what is it?" Lily asked.Laura pulled her hand from Lily's grip and brushed it through her hair as she sighed deeply."Actually, I came back to town because of two things. The first was because of the note you sent to me about my mother, and the second was because I wanted to find out what happened to me about seven years ago." Laura explained.Lily's face squeezed in confusion as she asked, "Something happened to you? What might it be?""Well, I don't know either; all I know is that I got pregnant after, and that was what resulted in my father sending me away from town," Laura replied."What?" Lily exclaimed in shock."Yes, you see, I was betrothed to Jared Tuner, but my stepsister set me up that night," Laura said, explaining what Grace had told her about the same night.There was more confusion on L

"Jason?" Tim called, wondering what was wrong."Okay, Liam, thank you for calling me. Do you know where you stay?" Jason said this on the phone.Tim realized he was talking to Laura's son and shrugged, hoping he got the answer he was looking for."No, that's fine. How is Lisa?" Jason asked.Just like magic, the hard look on Jason's face cleared as he spoke with the children. After a few minutes, the call ended."So?" Tim asked."They are leaving in two days," Jason said."What two days?" Tim replied, surprised."Yes," Jason replied, his voice sounding dejected."Oh, oh," Tim muttered."What did Gift say?" Jason asked."Nothing, just like I told you she would," Tim replied, adding, "Don't the kids know where the house is?""They don't; I think Liam called me from the card I gave him sometimes back," Jason replied."Hmm, well, I think you have tried all that you can," Tim said encouragingly.I am really going to lose Laura, Jason thought as he sat there, staring into space.*************

When Jason walked into the office that morning, everyone who saw him knew something was wrong."Jason, you don't look so good," Tim whispered behind him as they walked through the building lobby."You look like you did not get any sleep last night," Tim added as he noticed a few people staring at Jason."That is of less concern right now, Tim; I need you to get Gift here today," Jason replied as they boarded the elevator."Gift? You mean the same Gift Hatcher?" Tim asked."Yes, I need to ask her about Laura. She mentioned some time ago that they had been childhood friends," Jason replied.Tim shook his head, knowing that was not going to be a good idea, considering the outcome of the last meeting Gift had with Jason."I can basically feel you shaking your head from here," Jason muttered."Uhm, I just don't think Gift would be a good idea; I mean, after the last time, she would not be so keen to see you." Tim explained.Jason was at his wits end, and he was only trying to hold it all t

Jason woke up that morning with a heavy concern in his heart. He had tossed and turned through the night.The night before, he had been stunned by Tim's statement, and for a moment, his heart had frozen."What did you just say?" He had asked."Humm, I just heard from Emily, who heard from Laura's live-in nanny that Laura is leaving town," Tim had replied carefully.Jason had sat at the back of the car, stunned by the news. He had imagined a lot of outcomes from her sudden departure from the hotel, but he had not imagined that she would leave town."When did you get this information?" Jason had asked."Uhm, just before you stepped out of your office," Tim had also replied catiously."Why isn't she telling me about leaving town? Why is she suddenly avoiding me?" Jason asked himself, feeling a sinking feeling in his belly.Now, at the dawn of a new day, Jason climbed out of bed, looking dazed as he murmured, "I never thought I would feel this way."He walked over to the balcony and stare

"I really must have feelings for him," Laura muttered under her breath."Laura?" Teressa called again."I'm fine; I just felt a tiny pain in my chest," Laura said."Okay, let me get you water or something," Teressa said, hurring over to the mini-kitchen in the apartment.Laura's phone rang, and she saw Audrey's name on the screen."Hello, Adurey," Laura said, picking up the call."I think something must be really wrong," Audrey said in response."What?"

"Hello? Lily?" Jason said as soon as he heard her voice."Jason, how are you?" Lily said, breaking into a smile as she realized it was Jason."I'm okay. How are you? Is Laura there? I called to speak with her," Jason replied.Lily looked back, and to her dismay, Laura was gone. She looked from Audrey to Tina, both of whom had unreadable expressions on their faces."Humm, she is not feeling too well and has taken the day off," Lily replied, adding, "If there is anything you want us to help you with, I'm sure Audrey would take care of it.""Oh, yes, of course," Jason replied, the line silent for a few seconds before he added, "Are you aware she moved out of the hotel?"Lily coughed slightly as she replied, "Uhm, yes, I am.""Uhm, so do you know where she moved to? Well, not that I am particularly interested; I'm just, you know, trying to be a good neighbor; I believe we were neighbors," Jason replied, forcing himself to stop after realizing how he must sound."Hmm," Lily said, her brows
