LUCAN VALE: THE GHOST ASSASSIN Chapter 44
Tasha stiffened, caught off guard by his anger. However she didn't think he was being unreasonable for being angry right now. After all, even she now realized what a grave mistake it was, trying to disrespect Jason. Her mouth opened, then closed. She looked at Jason, shame visible in her eyes.“I’m sorry,” she muttered, barely able to meet his gaze. “I was wrong about you.”Brooke also did the same. “I judged you without knowing anything. That was wrong. I’m sorry.”Selene shot her step sibling an angry look silently commanding she apologise to Jason. Helen wasn't planning to do that. However with selene's cold gaze, she felt compelled to do so. She groaned, rolled her eyes, and threw her hands up. “Ugh, fine. I’m sorry, okay? Happy now?”Unlike the others, Helen didn’t fear Jason, not even now. In fact, she feared him less. If he was Selene’s friend, then he wouldn’t hurt her. Not when she was Selene’s sister. Step-sister, sure, but still family.Jason knew the apology was far from

Jason did not expect that Selene would be related to Helen. They didn't even look alike. Meanwhile, Selene’s eyes snapped to Jason, stunned by her sister's claim. Her posture stiffened. Jason? Was he really the man Helen had been ranting about earlier. She recalled Helen’s earlier tirade, something about a man at the gym who’d made her uncomfortable. A so-called creep who stared too long at her and her friends as she was exercising, and then, somehow, flipped the confrontation on its head when confronted.But now… that man turned out to be Jason.Selene’s instincts told her Helen had blown the whole thing out of proportion, again. There was no way Jason was a creep. She hadn’t known him long, but everything about him, his composure, the way he carried himself, was far from that of an immoral guy lurking around gyms.“Helen, stop exaggerating,” Selene said, calmly but firmly. “Jason would never do that. I'm sure there’s been a misunderstanding.” She glanced at him, offering a soft sm

“Yes, I am,” Jason said, cool as ice. “She’s clearly lying.”Tasha's eyes flared. Did he know what he was even saying? How dare he call her a liar? She grinded her teeth.“I’m not lying!” She turned to her boyfriend, clutching his arm “Babe, are you really gonna let him call me a liar?” she asked him. Tasha's voice dripped with challenge, daring Stephen, her black belt in martial arts boyfriend, to step up and restore her bruised pride.Brooke stepped in, arms crossed, chin high. “He’s out of line. You don’t talk to Tasha like that.”Helen added. “We should have you kicked out of here. “Honestly you give off psycho energy! Who invited this creep? I swear, this is not a fancy event anymore, how could it be, when they invite the likes of him!”The two boyfriends, Ernie and Stephen, locked eyes with Jason, puffing out their chests, as if they were ready to throw down. Actually, they were ready to throw down for real, because Jason was a creep who was stalking their girlfriends.Their m

Gossips circulated about how Selene Voss had arrived with her boyfriend. Of course, that wasn’t true. Jason and Selene heard the murmurs, but neither of them bothered to stop them. It wasn’t anything unusual, events like this were always full of whispers and assumptions.The Smith family had also attended the event. The organizer had sent invitations to every wealthy and influential family in the city.And since the Smiths were powerful in their own right, they naturally made the list.Vanessa heard the rumors too. However she didn’t care about any gossip and ignored them. She was only here because she wanted to see if she could find anyone willing to invest in smith royale. Unlike Vanessa, Seraphina, Cassira, and Marvin, standing close to her, were intrigued by the news, for different reasons. Cassira and Seraphina had their own motivations, while Marvin had his.Selene Voss was a well-known woman, regularly in the news thanks to her family’s business, Voss Industries.One of the

Selene sat back, her gaze focused as she spoke.“The Voss family is in need of a capable security team,” she said,. “After the incident, my father insisted we upgrade. But between you and me, our team is undertrained. They wouldn’t last ten seconds against a real threat.”Jason stayed silent, letting her finish.“You’re clearly experienced,” she continued. “I want you to be my personal bodyguard. And more than that, I want you to train the entire Voss security team.”Jason leaned back slightly, his fingers resting lightly on the edge of the table. “That’s generous,” he replied coolly. “But I’m not interested in being responsible for the safety of anyone.”Selene did not expect that answer from Jason. However she didn’t hesitate. “The salary is one million a year. Bonuses on top.”Jason raised an eyebrow, clearly impressed by how enthusiastic she was, though his answer came without pause. “Still, I have to pass.”Selene blinked, thrown off by his response. She hadn’t expected him to t

The young woman’s eyes softened with relief as she stepped closer. “How are you?” she asked, her voice was a mix of warmth and disbelief. This really surprised Jason, because he didn't know her at all, yet she was acting like they were familiar. But wait, the more he looked at her, the more familiar he thought she looked. Jason blinked, still caught off guard. “I’m… fine,” he replied, cautious. “Do I know you?”She looked a little offended by his question. How could he not recognise her? Was he joking? “You really don’t remember me?” There was disappointment in her tone, but not anger more like someone who had hoped for something different.Jason studied her face. She did seem familiar. And her voice was too, however when he tried to remember anything, nothing came up. “Nope.” He answered her casually. “Perhaps, you should refresh my memory.”Her eyes softened further, as if she understood his confusion. Then, with a gentle sigh, she said, “I’m the woman you rescued from kidnappers

How dare he gawk at her and her friends while they were working out?Jason, meanwhile, was still on the phone. “You do that,” Jason said, ending the call with Jamal. He tossed his phone into his gym bag and moved to the cable machine, adjusting the weight like nothing had happened.He didn’t notice Helen and her friends approaching until she was close. Even closer than casual.“You got a problem?” she asked, arms crossed, her voice a bit loud, but controlled enough to not attract attention.Jason paused mid-rep. He turned slowly, with a neutral facial expression, then took a moment before answering.“No,” he said. “Should I?”She blinked, caught off guard by his tone. He was not defensive, not smug, just... cool. How dare he? He was just ogling her a second ago, and now he was trying to play it cool, like he did nothing?“You were staring at me and my friend, loser.” Her second friend spoke up for her.Jason didn't remember staring at anyone., so he shook his head, “I was thinking,”

The Montgomery family members believed Jason had to die. They couldn’t let him walk away without consequences. If word got out that they’d spared him, it would send the wrong message—that they were weak, that they could be crossed. Their legacy, their influence, everything they had built over generations would begin to unravel. Elvis’s face paled as he listened to his family discuss Jason. They were making a big mistake. Elvis had learned his lesson and didn’t have any desire to go another round. “He nearly ended my life,” he said quietly, hoping they'd understand what a danger Jason really was. Caspian ignored Elvis. “We’ll make an example of this Jason Wolfe,” he said at last. Elvis sighed, not bothering to say anything else. No one was going to listen to him now. However, maybe that wasn’t such a bad thing, he debated himself. Elvis was having a change of heart all of a sudden. Sure, he was afraid of Jason, but he couldn't ignore the fire burning within him, that need for r

A few days passed after the incident at the harbor, where Jason crippled Elvis and saved Vanessa. Yet he was seen as the bad guy by the smith family, and to some extent even Vanessa himself.Jason didn't hear anything from Vanessa. And he didn’t try to reach out either, he was too busy searching for the dagger.The good news? He’d finally uncovered something about Elara Von Halen.She was an underworld boss. The one who ruled the east side of Velmora City.The discovery about her role as the queenpin caught Jason off guard. As far as he knew, the east side belonged to Don Luciano, a powerful crime boss Jason himself had put in power.Six years ago, there was a brutal war between two underworld figures, Don Luciano and Don Tony. Both were fighting for control of that part of the city, and the chaos had rippled across the entire underworld. Acting on behalf of the Eclipse Syndicate, who wanted stability, Jason stepped in and helped Luciano take the throne.But now, some how, this Von Ha
