LUCAN VALE: THE GHOST ASSASSIN Chapter 47
Caspian, meanwhile, after walking away from Vanessa, spotted Jason. Jason was grabbing a glass of water from a waiters tray when he spotted Caspian walking away from Vanessa. “Mr Montgomery.” Jason gave the old man a nod as he walked past him. However before he got far, he heard Caspian call out to him. “Mr…. Anderson, is it?” Jason turned around to face him, and he let out a simple and small laugh, “No need to be formal Caspian, you can call me Jason.” Caspian heard the sarcasm in Jason's voice and that was one of the things that grated on him about whoever this person was. It was like he was making fun of him. Like he was making fun of the fact that Caspian didn't know that he was talking to the person who was actually responsible for making Elvis limbless.“Jason, you wouldn't happen to know Ms Vanessa smith would you?” He asked. He was thinking: if Jason knew Vanessa and was familiar with her, or if he admits that he is her fiance, then that would mean he was the Jason he was

“Caspian Montgomery?” Bryce muttered, recognizing the business mogul. Caspian was a famous man with great influence, and so everyone, not only in Vanessa’s circle but in the whole event, recognized who he was, hence their surprise to see him ask to speak with Vanessa alone. Did Vanessa’s family have any business relationship with the Montgomery family? That was the question among many others, that was in their minds.The smiles faded. The group fell silent, exchanging glances before slowly muttering excuses and walking away, leaving Vanessa alone with Caspian.Vanessa waited for her former highschool mates to leave, and then she turned to Caspian, her expression tight. “Mr. Montgomery, can I help you?”Caspian gave a faint smile. “I will not take up too much of your time,” he said casually.“Sure. What do you want?” Judging by her no nonsense voice, Vanessa didn’t sugarcoat her dislike for Caspian.Why would she?Pretending had never been her thing. And she wasn’t about to start no

Jason gave a friendly nod.Caspian glared at him, suspicion etched into every line of his face. Who was this boy? Without a word, he turned and walked away.Selene turned to Jason, eyebrows raised. “What was that about?”She wasn’t sure if Jason was brave or just ignorant of who Caspian Montgomery was. Either way, angering someone like him was dangerous. And from where she stood, it seemed like Jason knew exactly what he was doing—and had meant to tick him off.“What do you mean?” Jason asked, slightly confused.“He looked like he wanted to strangle you,” she replied.Jason shrugged. “Did he?”Selene gave him a sharp look. “I’m serious, Jason. You need to be careful. Caspian Montgomery isn’t just some cranky old man. He’s dangerous.” She lowered her voice to a near whisper. “He’s tied to Velmora City’s most powerful kingpins. It’s supposed to be a rumor, but it’s true.”Jason smirked. “Well, that’s unfortunate.”She frowned. “Why?”He leaned in slightly, voice low and teasing. “Becaus

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
