Chapter 2

Jaxon was furious with his father, who was already in his twilight years but was still playing with young women!

Jaxon frequents nightclubs and is accompanied by many women, but he doesn't like his valuables in the possession of random people.

Moreover, his mum is sick, and his dad can play crazy again, this time with his new secretary, who is still young!

"Sorry, Young Master, you can't come in," prevented his father's assistant up ahead.

Jaxon just glanced at Philip, and Philip immediately understood.

Smash!

"Damn it!" cursed his father, who was already making out with a woman without a top.

Seeing his son coming, Lord Tristan gave her the secretary's clothes.

"Get out now!" said Mr Tristan to his secretary.

The woman looked down, ashamed to be caught by this son of her master.

"What brings you here, Jaxon?" asked his father.

Jaxon just watched without speaking.

"You didn't come here just to catch me, did you? You know who I am!"

"Stop your nonsense! I want to bring Mum."

"That won't be possible," replied the father.

"Then stop playing with women! I'll take over this Company if that's what you want!"

His father just smiled there. In the end, his son wanted to take over.

"Deal!" Without answering his father's words, Jaxon left his father's room and returned to his Company.

***

But he again had to endure his annoyance because he met the woman he wanted to avoid.

"Darling," the woman named Jessica immediately clung to his arm.

Jaxon neither answered nor refused, as usual. He kept walking without paying attention to the woman.

"Honey, I miss you so much; let's go to the apartment."

"I'm busy!"

"Come on just once; I'll satisfy you tonight," Jessica seduced.

"I'm going," he walked away and got into his car, which already had Philip waiting in the driving seat.

Jessica could only hold back her disappointment. They had been engaged for almost two years, but their relationship still needed progress.

Jaxon never talked about the continuation of their relationship at all.

And damn, Jessica is so crazy about Jaxon and has done many things to be able to spend the night with Jaxon. Jessica even gives him stimulating drugs like those in porn videos, but it's all in vain. Jaxon manages to anticipate her with sedatives and soaks himself with ice water at the mansion.

"Please, sir," Philip handed over his Ipad, and Jaxon looked at it.

Jaxon was still looking at him, and Philip understood.

"Scarlett Elsher. Orphan. Single and hardworking. A graduate of Wisdom University, she has only been working at our hotel as a Receptionist for three days," Philip explained.

"You've got an opening?" asked Jaxon.

"I did, sir. I have manipulated her late father's debt at the bank and planned your meeting," Philip replied.

"Do it!" Jaxon ordered.

"Go back to the house! I'm tired," Jaxon said again, and they went back to Jaxon's big house, and Philip had to go home.

"Please, sir," Philip opened the car door, and Jaxon exited the luxury car and entered the house.

***

The day has changed; this morning, Scarlett was visited by several cars, and she knows they are debt collectors.

"Are you Scarlett Elsher?" asked the visitor.

"Yes, myself."

"You must accompany us to the bank to pay Mr Rhodes' debts."

"What? Debt? How is that possible? My father is a State pensioner," Scarlett retorted.

"You must come now because your father is in debt with the VJ Group Company."

"VJ Group?" It was the first time Scarlett had heard of this; who did her father owes money to? And how shocked Scarlett was when she saw her father's signature and three-fingerprint.

Scarlett began to observe the file properly and find out the truth. Is it real or fake?

But unfortunately, Scarlett's eyesight is genuine.

"Okay. I want to meet the person concerned," Scarlett said.

The men immediately took her, and Scarlett was shocked to see she was taken into a grand house.

Would she be trapped like in the novels? Will she feel it now?

"Get down," the bodyguard said.

"Please wait here, Miss," after going downstairs, Scarlett entered the room and waited for the boss whose father had the debt.

Step! Step! Step!

The familiar sound of footsteps echoed in Scarlett's ears.

"Sir," Scarlett softly said when she saw who was approaching her.

Whack!

"Read!" he said coldly.

Scarlett was terrified when she saw that the man was cold and creepy.

Her body trembled, and she picked up the file.

"No way, t-this?" she said softly.

"I won't explain. You've already read it. You have only one choice. Sign, and this matter is over."

"But Sir," Scarlett could not speak as Mr Jaxon's sharp eyes stared intently at her.

"I will pay in instalments, sir," Scarlett said, wanting to negotiate.

Jaxon just gave her a dismissive look.

"I'm giving you three days from now! If you don't make it. You'll have to be prepared to go all the way," Scarlett stiffened again.

In three days to find seven hundred million? Where will she get it?

"Okay, I accept," Scarlett said confidently.

The woman already had a plan. She would pawn her house papers and her family's garden.

But once again, Jaxon just smiled. He had planned many things that would thwart Scarlett's plans.

"Prepare yourself three days from now! You'll be back here and ready to follow all my orders!" Jaxon said with a satisfied smile.

He will get what he wants. Without working hard, what he wants will come to him independently into the palm of his hand.

"Okay, if you'll excuse me," Scarlett had planned many things to avoid getting entangled in debt that she didn't know the truth about.

Jaxon just looked at her flatly. He would let the white rabbit do what she could without knowing that Philip had sabotaged all the banks in this country.

"Sir, we have to leave for Metropolis at 09:00," Philip told him.

Jaxon immediately got up from his chair and returned to his room to prepare to leave for the Metropolis that Philip had mentioned earlier.

It is Jaxon. Philip can ensure all his needs because Jaxon doesn't want his personal belongings touched by anyone other than himself and Philip.

Even the person who takes care of the dirty clothes is not just anybody but a particular person.

And he wanted the white rabbit to be his servant to care for his needs.
