CHAPTER 41: The Chairman's command

NARRATIVE Several minutes later, Imogen slowly stood up from the floor, slightly out of her dazed state. She stared at her sleeping mother for a while and wiped the tears rolling down her cheeks. "Mom, I can't bear to see you in such a state. I must find out what's going on and if it has to do with Scarlett, I wouldn't mind doing whatever it takes to drive her away from here. I can't let you continue like this." She slowly muttered. Not long afterwards, Imogen walked to the door and opened it. The moment she was outside, she stared briefly at the spare key in her hand before she proceeded to lock the room door with it. Her mother wouldn't find out yet, that she was in her room. As she walked wobbly down the stairs while supporting herself with a hand on the banister, she suddenly paused. The melodious unfamiliar tune coming from the direction of the music room made her realize someone was there. "Ashton's at it again." She sighed and attempted to walk off when a thought poppe

CHAPTER 42: Don't let me pay for the sins of my mother

ASHTON'S POV "Logan mentioned that he already met your elder sister and she's damn pretty. When are you gonna introduce us too?" Dexter said with a chuckle as he moved to the side of the snooker table and kicked a small white ball with his cue stick. It collided with several others and straight way entered a hole. "Your turn." He grinned at me, leaning his cue on his shoulder. "You have no idea how pretty she is." I smiled and positioned to play. Glancing up at him from my bent position, I added. "You boys keep your eyes off my sister." Now returning my gaze to a ball and focusing my cue on it as I kicked it and just like Dexter's, it collided against others and rolled straight into a hole. "Ay! Look at that!" I heard Rhys said from behind us, clicking his tongue afterwards. "Logan you're right. Ash has become really protective more than ever before." He added and they laughed. "But seriously Ash, your sister's really gorgeous_just like a dazzling fairy. You'd be having a

CHAPTER 43: Her father's apology

JAMIE'S POV Staring at my daughter as she cried bitterly before me, I knew greatly how much I've messed things up. She's my daughter too. I should have treated her differently. However, because she acts exactly in the manner Harriet does, it's almost impossible to think she could be different. "Imogen, I'm sorry." I said slowly and she stared through her tears at me. "I know you're different. Although, I can't tell you the reason I and your Mom are like this. What she did has long bore a deep hole in my heart even before you and Ashton were born. But notwithstanding, I shouldn't treat you that way. You're right, you're Imogen my precious daughter. You're NOT your mother. I really hope you can forgive me." "Dad..." Imogen sobbed.IMOGEN’S POV I can’t believe the way I’m feeling at this moment. Initially, I’ve always envisioned the moment Dad would one day apologize to me for all the previous mistreatments he’s shown towards me. And finally, that moment’s here. Earlier

44. The chairman's desire

NARRATIVE Jamie Grey cleared his throat once more and continued. "What I'm about to say may not be so pleasant to you but..." "Is this about Scarlett?" Imogen interrupted, narrowing her eyes at her father. His gaze softened as he watched her closely, seeing a brief flash of fury in her eyes. He was yet to give a response when she slowly nodded. "I'd rather not hear it then," Jamie Grey watched helplessly as she grabbed her purse bag and stood up to leave but-- "Sit down, Imogen." Ashton's voice was low yet commanding and Imogen reluctantly obliged. "I'm sure this is important to us as it is to Father," he added softly, now looking up at the chairman. "Father, can we get on with it?" "Thank you," Jamie Grey offered his son a small smile. And without much words this time, he dropped the bombshell. "I want all my children working at JP's Enterprise with me." He said, his words earning Imogen's famous deep frown but he continued anyway. "Imogen," I want you to be committed a

Chapter 45: Harriet's health

SCARLETT'S POV "Strategic alliance?" I repeated, leaning forward on the couch while raising curious brows at Freya. "Yes, Scarlett." She crossed her legs on the couch and leaned backwards comfortably. "And it's important you have an idea of what this is about before..." "Yeah, I do understand what the term means. But..." "Then that's okay." She smiled. "Really?" "Yes. Like I said before, it's important you have an idea on this topic now, mostly because, JP's Enterprise might be having a strategic alliance with Song and Kwan group soon." She announced and the information easily sank in. This explains it. This explains why KK came to the company himself some time back. "That's some good news," I smiled. "Yes my dear. However there are conditions to be met before Song and Kwan would be willing to partner with JP'S Enterprise." Madame Freya continued and I was curious immediately. "What conditions?" I asked and she took a sip from her tea. "Well, it has to do with

CHAPTER 46: New appointments

SCARLETT'S POV "I must say your confidence amazes me, Mr. Bryant," I said as I took a seat opposite him. "And I must say it is an honor that I am able to amaze a woman as amazing as you are, Ms. Grey," He retorted flirtatiously, a corner of his lips curving upwards in a smirk. What a confident flirt he is... "Palo, right?" His brow shot upward and a mysterious glint came in his eyes at my use of his first name. And then he smirked again. "Yes, Scarlett. I really find you very interesting. Do you want to know why?" He returned his teacup to the table ever so elegantly and crossed his long legs, fixing those dangerous eyes at me. My mouth parted open to say something but dad suddenly cleared his throat. "I am glad you both are getting along quite well already, that saves me the stress of introducing you two." He said with a small smile. "Couldn't agree more, Mr. Grey." Palo said. "Alright then, I'd leave you two to do some catching up." "Tha

CHAPTER 47: It's a surprise

SKYLAR'S POV "Aunt Aimee, I arrived Birmingham City some minutes ago." I gleefully announced over the phone to Scarlett's foster Mom, Aimee Brooke. I was in a cab, the same cab that picked me up from the airport and currently we were driving through the gates of the vast estate that houses the Grey's family manor. Scarlett had sent me the address a few days ago when we talked and I had told her I was coming soon but she didn't know the specific date. Scarlett told me her father had been very understanding when she had told him she wanted me staying in the manor with her. "Oh, that's amazing dear. Have you arrived home now? Have you met Scarlett yet?" She curiously asked and I shook my head in the negative as though she could see me. "Not yet. Remember she doesn't know I would be coming back today." I grinned at the thought of Scarlett's reaction when she sees me. I've missed my bumblebee so much. "Ah, that's right. You told me it's a surprise. Well, I'm glad I didn't say any

CHAPTER 48: Tensed moments

SCARLETT'S POV I had just finished showing Palo Bryant around the various departments of the company except one _ the sales management department, Imogen is the head of this department. At the moment, Palo and I are proceeding there after just leaving the operations management department. The introduction was easy and surprisingly fun, the staffs all seem to like him so far as it was obvious from their smiles and welcoming aura. Most of the time, I caught Palo's eyes on me but whenever our gaze locked, he didn't look elsewhere instead he would flash me his beautiful smile that seemed to always gets me enthralled. In the end, I was the one looking away and avoiding his eyes _ I have been doing much of that for a while now and I am certain his smartass must have noticed. We arrived the sales management general office and I was about to walk towards the entrance when Palo caught me by the wrist, leaned closer to me and whispered beside my ear words that made blood instant

CHAPTER 49: Too close

ASHTON'S POV We arrived the company and Scarlett's friend kept following me about, she clearly didn't know her way around. She kept gushing about how huge and elegant the building was. As we walked, I was greeted by several staffs and their curious eyes lingered on us before we took the elevator to the floor my office was located. Skylar remained close to me the whole time as though afraid she was going to get lost if she didn't stay so close.She was so close I could even smell the fragrance of her wavy brown curls. Such familiar scent!Wait. This smells like the one I use on my hair sometimes.Good heavens! Does she use male shampoo wash on her hair? Just as the elevator door opened at my office floor, I took a moment to look at her properly. She had cinnamon skin, a model body and height close to Scarlett's. She looked bright and gorgeous with an aura of contagious positive energy around her. I couldn't help but wonder if she was always this excited and cheerful.

CHAPTER 50: With her best-friend again.

SCARLETT'S POV I was lost in my thoughts as I read through mother's Journal. She was a great philanthropist and as her only daughter, I have been enjoying the fruits of her good deeds during her lifetime. I couldn't help but wonder if I would ever be able to live up to her reputation or sow half of her good deeds during my own lifetime. She was really great and though I have no memories of her, or rather, I didn't know who she was since she died after my birth, it still feels like I've known her for long. Maybe because she left me in good hands and took extra measures to guide me right even in death. I feel really indebted and grateful to her and I wish I could see her again _ even if in my dreams. I knew I couldn't rest until I bring Harriet down and make her have a taste of the deadly poison she made, decades ago. Slowly and surely, I would certainly achieve my goals. I am sure she would be getting a hit soon but this is only little compared to what's coming afte
