“I have something to show you,” Grandpa ambled majestically to Jenna. He looked so elegant in his all-white that Jenna couldn’t see the frustrations in his eyes. She was passionless about what he wanted to show her but when she saw it, her reflexes fell and her breathing hitched. “What do you want?” She gritted her teeth and asked, her hands balled into fists. He must want something to show her that video. The old man sat majestically on the chair in front of her with his legs crossed. Too bad he couldn’t bring a cigar because he was in a hurry. He had monitored Casper very well before entering Jenna’s office. Since they just arrived, it wasn’t likely that Casper would immediately come to check on Jenna. Whichever way, grandpa knew he had to leave before he came here. “Just imagine this video playing on all LED tv screens to welcome all staff in the morning." Jenna could feel her heart tightening in her chest. She was aware that Casper had shown the old man the video but had no i
Jenna had thought through everything in the night and this was the only way to keep her dignity and her friends safe. She knew Casper won’t allow her to go so after arriving at the office, she hastened through her meetings to not create any suspicions after checking the airlines. She didn’t have any destination in mind, just a plan of escape for as long as she could leave the soil of Manhattan, she’ll be fine. The quickest flight was going to France but she booked it. From there, she could plan her life and find a place to settle. She passed by the staff quarters and luckily, Kate had gone to work. After packing a few clothes from there, she set off since she couldn’t pick anything from Casper’s manor without raising suspicion. Luckily, there wasn’t much traffic but the weather was getting cloudy when she arrived at the airport. She made it to the terminal and had the ticket checked but just as she was about to go through the departure terminal, an announcement was made through the
Casper was always sure to never give her a way out. How was she supposed to return his heart? Even if the possibility knocked on her door, she wouldn't. Even if Casper were to marry Donna, Jenna wanted to remain in his heart forever. The selfishness was mutual. In a situation like this, she could only beg him. “Casp, please don’t do this,” she pleaded but Casper was upset. While he was finding a way for them to be together, she was planning on leaving him, which didn't go down well with him and he lost his patience.“Enough already. I can carry you if that’s what you want. Haven’t you created enough scene?” Jenna’s cheeks turned red as she looked at all the cars packed around them and the people staring, not minding how heavy the rain was getting. Some were even taking pictures. Instantly. She slid into the back seat. Casper asked Caleb to drive and sat beside her. He was afraid she might disappear or something if he wasn’t there.She began shivering slightly from the cold so Casper
When Casper left Jenna in the room alone, all she wanted was to end it all. In Casper’s eyes, she could see the love that scorched her, and grandpa's hatred, so scalding. She didn't have the strength to fight and she wasn't allowed to run. She was trapped in Casper’s heart and the only escape route she could think about was taking sleeping pills overdose from the medicine cabinet.Casper had already called the family doctor before arriving at the Blades’ hospital, which luckily was close to his manor. Cathan was taking care of the company while Caleb left with Hunter so none of his trusted persons knew what had happened.Jenna was taken to the intensive care unit and Casper could only wallow in self-regret. If he had let her go, all this wouldn't have happened. It would have been better to be far from her, knowing she was alive than to lose her like this.He could have stayed with her and made the call in front of her but didn't want to show any more of his ruthless side to her. Now I
Grandpa was annoyed when his security informed him that someone had delivered a parcel, as he wasn’t expecting any gift. Worst of all, the delivery guy had refused to enter the house and the security couldn’t take the parcel because it was too huge. Grandpa stepped out of his palace to see a big black rectangular box with a big red ribbon. He suddenly felt uncomfortable, and asked irritably, “who delivered it?”The security didn’t know how to answer the question without sounding irresponsible. “They had masks on their faces.”Grandpa’s face was expressionless. He wanted to return the box but on second thoughts, ordered the security man to open it for curiosity's sake. The horrific sight that met his eyes was blinding, grandpa sunk on his knees and tried to wake the man in the box. His eyes that hadn’t shed tears in ages began to water like a fountain. His whole body shook violently from sorrow. He wailed in agony like a widow, his blurry eyes from tears catching sight of a pen drive
Jenna was trying hard to beat the time when she left the manor with the driver. She had no intention of picking a flight due to the delay the last time and was headed for the train station. When the driver hit the main road, she alighted from Casper’s car and picked a taxi, when she felt like she was being stalked. Casper always kept his word and he promised not to track her till after two hours so who could be tracking her? Jenna was a little afraid therefore, she alighted from that taxi to pick another one when an SUV stopped beside her.“Get if you want to make it on time.” A feminine voice with a little warmth bellowed. Jenna instinctively stared at the woman in the driver seat, who looked familiar and tried to remember where she saw her.“Who are you?” She squinted and asked, keeping a reasonable distance between them.“It doesn’t matter, just get in.” The voice turned impatient. Jenna recalled vaguely, the woman who claimed to be her guardian angel. She was also a known person
“I’m sorry Kate, you would have prevented me from leaving.” Jenna was saddened. She missed her friends but thought of their safety. She couldn't tell that to Kate.Kate was slightly guilty upon hearing her dismal voice. She could tell that Jenna was being candid and regretted poking her conscience to make her attend the wedding for Casper to nail her.“I’m just surprised that Casper let you go.”No one knew about her attempt to commit suicide and she thanked Casper in her heart for that. If she had used any other means, it wouldn't have worked. “It’s for the best.”“So, are you coming for the wedding or not?” Casper wrote the question on a notepad for Kate to ask Jenna. He wasn't interested in their pitiful talk.“I won’t miss it for anything,” Jenna assured her over the phone. Kate was excited but Casper was even more elated.“Better. I’ll see you in two weeks.”“Why two weeks?” Jenna’s heart was panging in her chest as she thought about how to make it to the wedding without being ca
Casper’s eyes narrowed dangerously when he saw the woman in his bed. She was wearing see-through lingerie and in the dark, he saw everything clearly, growing more and more agitated.“Get out!” He bellowed coldly. Donna shivered but wasn't going to give up. It wasn't easy for her to convince the guards that Casper knew she was coming. Since he was sleeping and she was his betrothed, they allowed her in so if she goes out now, they would know that she lied, which would ruin any future opportunity of using the same means again.“I can take care of your needs, don't be shy.” Her voice was soft and silky, it could melt any man's heart but not Casper. Donna had dyed her hair black and the lingerie was also black. She went the extra mile to please him but the only woman he wanted was Jenna and he was going to get her back by all means.“What do you want?” He got out of the bed and draped a towel robe over himself, as he was just in his boxers at the moment.Disappointment flashed in Donna's
