Chapter Two Hundred Seventy-Eight

CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED SEVENTY-EIGHT*It is never going to happen, not in this life or the next.*"Congratulations Miss Janice Jordan!" Lorenzo bobbed his head slightly as she approached the end of the stage. Many people surrounded her, offering their congratulations. She had been caught up with the crowd around her. Many asked for her business cards which she instructed Sandra to distribute to them. Even celebrities came to offer their thanks and asked for her business card. She was extremely excited to give them. She came prepared. Before flying to Paris and with hopes of winning the award, she ensured that many copies of her business cards were made in case they meet likely clients in Paris who would want to do business with them... She had to be smart. She was going to one of the most fashion-blooming cities in the world... She simply can't afford to whisk that opportunity away like that. Thankfully, her dreams came to pass. He offered her his hand as he stretched his right

Chapter Two Hundred Seventy -Nine

CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED SEVENTY-NINE *Yes, it's payback time*Janice cleared her throat weakly and forced a tight-lipped smile at Casanova. "Well, She is busy with work and couldn't make it. Can you guys excuse us for a minute? I will join you guys soon." She said to Sandra and Lorenzo gaping at the both of them. They nodded. She scurried toward Casanova and goaded to follow her to the balcony where they won't be seen. He didn't protest but followed her closely behind.When they got to the balcony, Janice's smile melted into a glare instantly. Casanova's brows scrunched up in confusion. "Why did you require a private meeting? Are you about to make a confession perhaps?" His lips curved teasingly, grating her nerves. "Confession my foot!" She scoffed. "The only confession I will be making to you is to let you know, in case you were wondering if my best friend still harbours any feelings for me, that I can guarantee you, she absolutely doesn't! So cut to the chase and let me kn

Chapter Two Hundred Eighty

CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED EIGHTY*"...The karma that is coming for you is even worse than death."*He blinked uncontrollably as his mouth gaped incredulously at Janice. He gently pressed his hands onto his soaked pants and slowly jerked his head back up at her. The whites of his eyes burned so violently that they turned pink. Passerbys paused to stare. Some gasped and some shook their heads in disbelief and embarrassment. A server quickly handed him a freshly folded towel to dab himself with. He snatched the towel from the server all the while his burning eyes were trained on her. "Oops, my hand moved on its own. I didn't mean to." Janice sniped playfully as her lips quivered in sheer mockery. Casanova scoffed and chuckle icily. He shook his head and took a tentative step towards her. Janice's heart raced. Was he going to hit her for purposely pouring a drink on him? He can't do that in public if he so values his goddamn reputation! And besides, that would cancel the sole reason he w

Chapter Two Hundred Eighty-One

CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED EIGHTY-ONE*Now, eyes on the mission*"Hello Mum, how are you?" "Hanging in there until all is said and done." Drake puffed out a deep breath as he clutched the phone close to his ears and made his way to the armchair by the window side. It's a gloomy and chilly afternoon. Winter is drawing close here in London. The afternoon sun gleamed weakly, casting its light into the window. He had finished his morning warm-up at the stables with the horses, fed them and groomed them. Mr Jordan had noted that the horses should be prepared for a warm-up. He said about four horses. Drake had wondered what Mr Jordan is preparing them for. Maybe he is expecting some visitors? It's been ages since they had ridden in a group like that Since Janice's uncle came around. After he had finished warming up the horses he returned to his cabin room and realized he had missed several calls from his mother, Mary Orwell. It's been a while since she called. She probably has another side

CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED EIGHTY-TWO *There's so much she doesn't know about and it is disturbing!* "Welcome back Honey and a hearty congratulations on your award. You know that I'm always proud of you!"Her mother said with a wide smile plastered on his face as he kissed her on her cheeks. She returned to London today and Mr Briggs was sent to the airport to pick her up. "Thank you, Dad. It feels so good to be back in London. Meanwhile, it is already freezing in Paris." She said as she slumped into the comfy couch, exhaling a wary sigh."That's the peeks of staying in London! London no doubt has the most amazing accommodating weather ever. You ready to eat?" He said as he joined her on the couch opposite hers. "Or a drink perhaps? it must have been an exhausting trip for you because you had to leave a little early." She shook her head gently. "Not exactly." He nodded. "By the way, your speech was fantastic. I couldn't help but cry. Your Mum must be so proud of you." He smiled

CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED EIGHTY-THREE*"Do you believe in Karma?" *"Heyyyy! A hearty congratulations to you Janice!" Hannah hugged her tightly as they settled down on her sofa in her room. Hannah had called to confirm if she was around and quickly drove over to her house. "I've been dying to see you so badly! You think I would just let you gist me over the phone and that's that? Hell, no way! Thankfully I got off work quite early today!" she smiled widely at her friend and embraced her again. Hannah leaned back and let her light-brow eyes to danced over her friend appreciatively before she added, "Paris sure looks good on you babe. First of all...

CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED EIGHTY-FOUR *It's about time I know what the heck is going on! I won't be left in dark anymore*"I do, I think. Why?" Hannah pursed her lips. Janice chuckled. "Everything.... all the horrible things Casanova did to you, Hannah do you think I would make it easy for him huh?" Hannah squinted at her friend dubiously. "Janice, what on earth did you do to Casanova?" "Inconceivable things," Janice muttered fiercely, a devilish grin spreading across her face as she leaned closer. Hannah widened her eyes. "What do you mean?" Janice burst out laughing, seeing the dead expression on her friend's face. Waving it off she said, "Okay, I was just kidding about the past part. But I did do something embarrassing to him. I couldn't help it after everything he did to you." "Okay, what the hell did you do to him? Just say it already! Surely it couldn't be that bad right?" Hannah rolled her eyes at her and shook her head. Janice puffed out a deep breath in resigna

Chapter Two Hundred Eighty-Five

CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED EIGHTY-FIVE*The nagging feeling was far from being gone rather it intensified... *"Why? It's rare to see you here honey. Do come in." Mr Thomas Jordan said as he held out the door for her. Janice gingerly stepped into her father's spacious bedroom.When was the last time she was aware? She certainly can't remember... Oh, that's right, since her mother passed away. They had one kind size bed and two separate beds and rooms when they require privacy. She found it absurd for a couple to have two separate beds and rooms or maybe because there were plenty of rooms and her father didn't know what to use them for. Anyway, she was here with one goal in mind: To seek answers. No looking back. Hannah had just left for about half an hour and she had retired to her bedroom to gather thoughts before she finally decided to barge into his bedroom and have a talk with her. Thankfully, he obliged her. He gestured to the Chesterfield sofa beside the window. "You seat t

Chapter Two Hundred Eighty-Six

CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED EIGHTY-SIX*The day his once bright, happy life turned black as the night.*Mr Jordan chuckled as he rose to his feet. "It's no big deal. Matt doesn't know how to keep his mouth shut whenever he talks about you. Don't blame him." He waved that off and smiled at her. "I just want you to give him a chance is all and see where it leads. Isn't it about time you settle down? Im not sure I have seen you with any man around lately. Or is there something I need to know?" She gulped. Of course not! No fucking know you would know that your daughter is in love with a horse keeper! She shook her head aggressively. "Of course not! Dad is not like Matt did anything so terrible or anything is just that I don't like his gut and I feel like we aren't compatible." "How can you be so sure?" He asked, drawing close. " You can never know until you tried. I felt that same way towards your mother at some point, I felt she was beneath my league, I underestimated her but when I

Chapter Two Hundred Eighty-Seven

CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED EIGHTY-SEVEN *Brewing Rival*Drake was getting ready for the get-together, grooming the horses at the stables when he sensed a presence behind him. Slightly startled he whipped around and was surprised to see a man behind him, looking intently at him. His amber eyes scanned his features closely as if he was trying to decipher a message. Drake furrowed his brows. Who was this man? He looked quite sophisticated. His long blonde hair gleamed under the afternoon soon. He was clad in dark blue jeans and well-polished brown boots and a White tank top. His expensive cologne wafted the air around them and Drake couldn't help but inhale the strong scent. He smells expensive. There's only one answer. He was aware that the Jordans fixed a little "Family" get-together today and his best friend was going to be in attendance which also means that his son will be coming as well. Could this be him? The Matt Castle dude? Judging from the hardened expression on his face
