"Why is that woman here?" Terry North muttered as soon as he saw who had spoken.Luke North looked back and saw her, his eyes darkening in anger as the media began to take pictures of her."Natasha North," Shawn murmured under his breath as Natasha walked to the front of the room.Laura saw the look on Jason's face and knew instantly that it was his mother. When she got to him, Laura stood up and said, "You're welcome, ma'am; you can have my seat."She turned and walked towards Lily, who had an empty seat beside her."That was thoughtful of you," Lily whispered as she sat down."I just thought it was the right thing to do," Laura replied.Over at Jason's seat, he stood up and said, "Thank you for coming, mom.""I'm only here because I know your father wouldn't want me to hide away at home and watch the coporation taken away," Natasha replied."Thank you all the same," Jason said.Natasha smiled and left him to go cast her own vote, after which the voting officially came to an end."Pl

"You assured me you were going to get me the position, uncle, but I guess I should not have trusted you," Shawn said to his uncle.Luke and Terry North had their shoulders squared in disappointment. It had been a bad day for them; to think that they now had to obey Jason's every bid without a word of complaint was the worst hell they could think of."You're not the only one who is affected by this, Shawn; maybe if you had not gone to Lily's place, then she would not have been too suspicious of that invite," Luke North blamed Shawn."I only went there to solicit for her help; how is that so bad? If she really does care about my father, then she should not discriminate between his children," Shawn stated.They were all sitting in Shawn's office, and Rita North was asking them to recount exactly what had happened."It's not something I want to talk about, Rita; you should have come early," Luke said."I need to know; that's the least you can do; I was not able to attend. So are you sayin

"Congratulations, Cousin," Vivian said, a wide grin on her face as Jason walked up to them."You didn't have to come here," Jason said as he hugged her.Tim got out of the car, grinning at the excitement on Vivian's face. She seemed to be the only member of the North family who was happy about Jason's new position."Uncle Jason, mummy said you're now the chairman; what does that mean?" Little Bobby said.Jason lifted him up and threw him in the air, causing Little Bobby to let out a scream just before Jason caught him again."Hey little man, I'll explain all that to you later; let's go in and get you something to eat," Jason replied."Okay," Lilttel Bobby said with a smile at the mention of food."I'm sorry I couldn't make it, but I'm sure I'm going to get an earful about it from my mother," Vivian said as they walked into the hotel, with Tim right behind."How do you feel?" Vivian asked.They were ushered into the private area, which Jason usually used when he visited the restaurant.

Jason watched the change of expression on his uncle's face. What could be the new thing they wanted to spring on him now, he thought?"Uhm, Jason, thank you for seeing us," Luke North said, clearing his throat slightly before continuing."We are actually here for a very simple reason, which we believe is important in the organization," Luke said.Jason raised his brows at them in question, wondering what they meant by the statement."We know that as your father's brother, we do not really have much authority over anything now that you are the chairman officially," Terry North stated, adding, "and seeing as the life of our brother, your father, is hanging on the balance and it's only a matter of time before he passes on,""Where exactly are you going with all this, uncle?" Jason asked, his face expressionless at the mention of his father's imminent death."Uhm, Jason, we just want to know how long we have left; you know, after all we did and put you through, we know you might not want

"I really must have feelings for him," Laura muttered under her breath."Laura?" Teressa called again."I'm fine; I just felt a tiny pain in my chest," Laura said."Okay, let me get you water or something," Teressa said, hurring over to the mini-kitchen in the apartment.Laura's phone rang, and she saw Audrey's name on the screen."Hello, Adurey," Laura said, picking up the call."I think something must be really wrong," Audrey said in response."What?" Laura asked, her brows squeezed in confusion."You never miss a chance to work; that's why I'm wondering what's going on. How are you feeling now?" Audrey asked.Laura shook her head as she replied, "I'm fine, Audrey; I'm just not up for work yet.""Okay, no problem; I just wanted to check in on you," Audrey replied."Thank you," Laura replied, adding, "If there is anything that requires my urgent attention, please let me know.""Don't worry, I will," Audrey replied before ending the call.Laura pulled the phone from her ears and rubbe
