MEANWHILELAWRENCE'S HEADQUARTERS Jordan's dark pair of ocean eyes were strictly focused on some documents as he worked busily being isolated in his office. His chocolate brown pigmented hair were messy but it charmed him more while his professional attire screamed extreme richness.Jordan Lawrence was no easy man after all. His every second was money making him intimidatingly the most powerful man in the world business. He was the best known tycoon in the entire continent. Also be called as the godfather of the entertainment industry who had his every possible reach over the numbers of platforms in multimedia resources. He had numbers of agencies under his feet in the process and with his only one click of fingers, he was able to make many lives and destroy the visa versa. He can assign agencies under his labels and also holds the power to ruin them too...Obviously Jordan Lawrence's name sounded equally dangerous than just being powerful in the entire states of America, he was
"Can you stop fu*king making me feel so pathetic, Hattiea? I am here to fu*king talk!"Jayson's voice held weird deepness which Hattiea never heard before. Irritation... He was irritated because of her continuous avoidance. He turned Hattiea around holding her arm to face him again in a rushed manner making her stumble back a bit with his action. Now right there, that never happened before.The Jayson whom Hattiea knew before, was never this frustrated to force his actions on her. Then what happened today? He seemed to be a whole different person now as his eyes seemed angered... The action took Hattiea off guard as she looked at him with shocked widen eyes filled with heavy offence but he only eyed her with clear desperation.The audacity of him to behave that way in front of her even after doing all those horrible things... was unbelievable. He still have guts to do so... Such a shameless man! "I don't want to talk to you!" Said Hattiea soon in protest, after recovering fro
"Do you think your 'mistake' is that small to be able to get rid of so easily? How heartless you could be to drag your fault to the extend to end an innocent life?" Hattiea ran out of her patience as she started speaking angrily. While her sudden outburst surprised Jayson. She was now raging as she was not able to believe that the man standing in front of her was the same man who used to think about others first before him.Hattiea fell in love with that guy who always worried about the people he loved...But this man standing right in front of Hattiea was a whole different person. He was not Jayson! Jayson used to be such a kind hearted person before then what happened now? How could he be so selfish?It was his own child, his own flesh whom he was going to end like it does not even matter to him a bit? Getting no response in return, Hattiea stepped ahead maintaining the fury in her eyes. "And what about Tiara? Does she want it to happen? Are you going to force your fu*king d
"I can and I will..." Hattiea announced being fearless as Jayson's eyes widened at her claim.She was going to leave him, even the thought of it was a huge threat for Jayson. He cannot see any future without her. He needed her.His business needed her and he was not ready to let go of her in any manner. "Hattiea-"Jayson addressed her name but she had already turned around to leave the scene ending their conversation, trying to get closer to her yet again in a desperate way but suddenly Jayson's phone rang stopping his steps right then, he cursed under his breath because of the interruption.Reaching out for his cellphone, he picked up the call before speaking over the device with a professional attitude the next second. "Yes, Mr.Smith!" He sounded lot more decent than he was a moment ago. But Hattiea cared less about it all, sooner her steps halted in the middle when she heard him mentioning her in his conversation out of nowhere. "Don't worry Mr.Smith, me and my fiancé are co
The feeling of worthlessness one gets when they stop listening to their hearts was such a soul wrenching feeling...The same Hattiea felt at the moment. Her chocolate eyes were stuck out of the vehicle's window blankly as her hands were intertwined with one another, her mind spaced out everywhere but nowhere near the man who was sitting just next to her, driving quietly.No one spoke a single word. Hattiea tried to gather her self esteem bit by bit but it seemed like Jayson made a huge mess of her to collected her thoughts so easily. She had to obey his order at last... even if she did not want to.Why, you may ask?Well, because the man driving the vehicle at the moment was not just Hattiea's fiancé. He was once her everything. Their past was indeed not easy like others but yet it was very beautiful for Hattiea.He taught her many things...She too always supported him. Both were perfect for one another until Jayson decided to cheat...Jayson was the first man in Hattiea's life.
Arriving at the event, Jordan could see the desperate commotion going on outside the venue. Reporters and press were recklessly surrounded all around their vehicle. Seemingly the scene did not surprise Jordan a little, he was quite used to it. Sebastian was the first one to leave the vehicle, as following him two guards immediately escorted him to the way leading the lobby.While surrounding their vehicle still, to protect Jordan's security other two guards arrived positively. One came helping with Jordan's door, opening it for him so he could step out as the other other guided him inside where Sebastian waited for him, dealing with the paparazzis. Sebastian always dealt with the press and reporters for Jordan who rather found all the attention too unnecessary and irrelevant. He was always a reserved person to worked in silence as a result he always ignored the publicity to his fullest at charity events like such... When Jordan arrived shortly, immediately the busy cameras start
She wanted to eschew him. But little did she know that escaping Jordan again was her biggest mistake ever. As now that he found her finally, he was not going to let her go again at any cost. Never... Hattiea successfully managed to walk out of the auditorium where the event was about to start any minute, she intended to find the female washroom as the matter of excuse to avoid that stranger's approaching her. She obviously still faced the moment of panic about what happened earlier, his eyes. Those freaking dark eyes of him, had a lot take to narrate. A lot... Silent anxiety started filling Hattiea's body as her heels slapped the now quiet hallways echoing the click clack voice of her fancy footsteps with elegance.She held her long apparel carefully as she passing through the huge hallways to god knows where. Empty... There was not a single soul around her to direct her the way to female washroom.She frowns the same minute, looking here and there with anticipation. Someth
"Quit toying me woman, I cannot afford to lose you now that I have found again..." Jordan's anonymous tone worked in shocking Hattiea's extends. His dark pair of ocean eyes still were mysterious, walking closer to Hattiea's face again while she backed away from him in fear. He looked dead serious. Surprisingly hearing him saying that, Hattiea experienced wild chills down her spine for the next minute. As creepy and bizarre this man sounded or acted in front of Hattiea, there still was something about him which was unjustified.With his rich attire and godly presence, Jordan seemed one man of morals and decency. He seemed exalted. A man holding one prestigious rank in their society. But his eyes were dark. Too dark to read through him. What does he want? Why would he damned to follow her to female restroom? Sensing her moment of panic, it was clearly stated that Hattiea wanted to avoid Jordan touching her in any way. Her eyes went down to the floor afraid to keep up with his i
NEXT DAY "Jessica I want everything to be perfect, they could be here anytime. Today's board conference is very important for me and I cannot allow any mistakes!" Wearing extremely busy aura, Jayson paced around the office being tensed with one of his employee who was assigned to arrange today's board conference with one of the biggest and greatest investors of America. The Lawrence's. Obviously, Jayson was tensed since he was informed that the Lawrence's were interested in his agency and wanted to meet him as soon as possible. It was all so sudden for him to take in but at the same time, it was exactly what he had been aiming for so long. He wanted to gain their attention. He finally caught it. That was exactly why he went to the event yesterday. It did work for him! "Understood Mr.Jayson!" The employee replied professionally while soon reaching the cabin following Jayson behind to address him about the conference's arrangements. Entering inside, he sighed deeply pinching
"Saying absolutely unexpected things out of no fucking where Jordy. That's fucking scary." Sebastian claimed all surprised, tilting his head at the direction of the woman ahead who seemingly disappeared from his view the other matter of second.Jordan's frown eased up a bit as he looked away hiding his eyes, saying nothing in his defence. Immediately proving his friend's point right in a manner.Hence taking the lead of the conversation further on, Sebastian charged his friend a question about what was in his mind. "What do you want me to do about her next? What are your plans with her?" Sebastian questioned bluntly. Obviously now that they finally found her, they need to approach her as quick as possible.Considering the doctor's advice in a serious account, both the individuals were well aware that his mother's condition was getting serious day by day. They really don't have time to waste trying to act upon anything, all they knew for now was they needed to get that woman read
"I do? Then why the hell did you contact Lawrence's when I literally told you not to! Do you even know what could be wrong if we fail again, you will have countless debts on you and our company will be bankrupted. That's the sort of aftermath you can't afford at the moment Jayson!"Hattiea shouted out loud without bothering being watched or filmed by anyone.Cameras and people, she cared least about at the very moment.Launching both of her fists over Jayson's chest aggressively caused him to jerk backwards again but getting a hold over himself, he again stood strong with his amour of defenceless confidence.He eventually caught the hold of her fists, pulling her in towards him. Face to face for a brutal confrontation."For once, why can't you think about the bright picture Hattiea? Think about the positive aftermath, what if we'll rock the deal? Our company will touch the sky like never again. Why the fuck do you always have to be negative?"Instead of sounding convincing, Jayson's s
"Jordan Lawrence?" Jayson found his voice back but unlike the other confused faces present in the hall, he seemingly acted shocked and too captivated by the man who betted 50 million dollars for a mere ring... His action also attracted Hattiea's attention immediately as she frowned at him deeply. Indeed, she'd heard the name of 'Jordan Lawrence' before in her career multiple times but just like others, she never met before in events like this. He was never seen in public. Today was indeed special to have him here out of all the places. But that didn't surprise Hattiea much like the fact that he was the same man who tried to molest her back in the hallways? He was none other than the god father of the entertainment and fashion industry round the entire states of America, the same creepy stranger who tried to kidnap her earlier? Acknowledging all this, Hattiea's noticed also Jayson's dumbfounded face, with a hint of curiosity for that man. Jayson seemed to act like he knew somet
"50 million dollars and sold!" The host leading the auction accepted the final bid, nodding to Jordan. As soon as the host announced, crowd's attention drafted towards the the owner of the most expensive jewel of tonight.Gasps were heard from the crowd as everyone's eyes found the one who bade the highest only for a ring? Guessing he must be a man of crazy expenses. They were indeed right! The same minute Jordan's cold expression turned out to be more arrogant as he smirked ironically, winning the bid with a single strike. His presence alone was holding so much power to reveal that he wasn't any easy personality obviously to be able to afford the jewel of tonight.Jordan stood up from the VIP section dusting his suit once. Next snaking his right hand inside his pocket holding zero emotions whatsoever over his face. Having every single eyes on him yet he was not paying attention to anyone in the room but only one.Hattiea's eyes found him staring at her as she felt weird chills
"I can no longer allow you in my heart, if anything... you will only have me for the sake of the favours you did to me in the past. Business is what you always chose, business is what you are going get from me."Hattiea firmly cut Jayson's statement off, shutting him up for a good couple of minutes to process her words in complete shock. Her eyes were cold as she looked right into his ones, making it crystal clear for him to get her denial right. She wasn't going to get infatuated by his sweet talks ever again. He made enough fool of her, now not anymore. Acknowledging Hattiea's guided speech against him, Jayson gulped in silent guilt. He too knew well that Hattiea wasn't like any other women who would like to be persuaded with money or any luxurious assets. If anything, she would want only love and honesty from a person. Nothing else. Hattiea was seemingly broken. She was heartbroken and that's what caused her to question her interest in her relationship with Jayson. They h
"Took a while to find the restroom!" Blinking long and hard, Hattiea finally opened her lashes steading herself to face her so called fiancé with enough confidence to look unfazed and fine.She made sure not to mention anything about the incident happened back in the hallway.It was weird, so weird. She should tell her fiancé about the stranger who stalked her and tried to take her somewhere with him, held her, threatened her and what not in the span of last 10 minutes. The stranger could have done anything to her and sure as hell she would have needed Jayson's help desperately. But strangely she did not want to mention a word about anything anymore. Not when, she was too enraged by Jayson to make her come here to attend a freaking charity event at the very first place. It was all because of him. He made her attend the event when she didn't even want to come. If he hadn't forced her then all of this wouldn't even have happened. Most definitely, Jayson was to be blamed for ever
"I am not kidding either. At least not with a lucky meat like you!"Jordan uttered as Hattiea's eyes widened at his indirect use of humour. There was something he tried to imply by that 'lucky meat' but Hattiea was too distracted to give it a thought. Her entire attention was directed on how Jordan held her captured. Seemingly wearing a pair of high heels with a long revealing gown tonight was a huge mistake. She fount it difficult to handle her own weight at this situation, while struggling to strengthen herself.But soon she felt Jordan wrapping his arms around her more tightly making her unable to move...Hattiea landed upon Jordan's warm embrace while trying to balance herself, although the amount of rude force he applied was a messy move indeed. Jordan pulled her forward towards him with a deep sigh. That gave Hattiea clear chills down her spine. Her heart raced million times faster and her pupils dilated in clear fear at this point. He was not at all using force on her lik
Though the soundless hallway now no longer echoed the sound of the smack Hattiea just planted over Jordan's face being upright, but the pinching silence started crowding both of their respective spaces in no time. Which was so loud to ignore, indeed quite serious too. Jordan Lawrence was a man of heavy pride. The entire world acknowledged him with that very title. The man who dominates the industry, the man responsible for millions of family being fed and taken care of every single day in the entertainment industry...He was no easy personality, let alone never a man who tolerates disrespect against him. He never allowed even a finger against him all those years of his life. Let alone a direct slap being directed towards his face so easily... that was unexpected.Too unrealistic to make believe for others. If someone had witnessed the scene their working pair of eyes then it sure would be quite an entertaining headline for tomorrow round the entire states of America. Jordan Lawr
