Casper Hart

I drove Jason's wife to the office in total silence and tried to act as the carefree Jason when we got to the office but it felt weird since we were still practically strangers to each other.

"Call me if you need anything" she said to me

"Okay" I replied and went inside Jason's office.

I sat on the expensive leather chair that was going to be mine for the whole day and looked around the room. It looked nothing like what Daniella and Lexi Ryan said about it.

Jason told me that there was no way that he could trust Daniella Huggins with his company, so, during the weekend, Daniella's job as Jason's assistant was terminated.

Lexi Stokes

I went out of my office the moment that I dropped my bag and headed to the marketing department where Cynthia worked but her seat was empty and she was no where to be found

    Jason StokesI've been trying Lexi's number for hours but it was unreachable. "Fuck" I swore and Carmella looked at me with a worried faceAbout two hours ago, when I couldn't get in contact with her, I had sent Tanner over to Cynthia's house and he had came back with a sad news "Cynthia was no longer living there""I'm sure she is save" Carmella saidI ignored her and tried Lexi's number again. Unreachable. I closed my eyes and tried to subdue the fear that was gnawing at me. What if she have left me again?.

I asked"No" Casper replied "I'm also trying her number here, not reachable""Lexi is in trouble" I said slowly and quietly"I'm sure she is not" Casper said back"She is" I replied him "Come back home now, I need to find my wife""Jason..."

    The time was 12:17am and I and Cynthia were still catching up when Austin walked inside the room and said "Your husband is here""Really?" I said surprisingly but he ignored me and walked out of the room. I looked at Cynthia for some explanation but she just shrugged and said "That is who he is. It took me weeks to understand him""Okay. Where is my bag?""It's in the other room"We both got out of the bed and walked out of the room. We walked to the gate with Austin and two other men and I saw Jason waiting for me by his car. His eyes lit up when he saw me but it turned to something unreadable when he saw the men that were with us.He looked from me to Cynthia, from Cynthia to Austin and from Austin to the two other men with his quizzical look. He was trying to understand what was going on.I walked toward him and said "I'm sorry for bothering you, I didn't mean to"He looked at Austin again and asked me in whisper "Who are these men""Let me

My mind was beating a million times per microseconds but I still tried to put on an hard face even though I was shaking insideFinally, the door opened and the person in the high heels stepped inside the room.
