Henry suggested. "You will love it," he added with a smile, and Jason gave it some thought. "You want me to have dinner with her in my limo inside the garage?" Jason asked, pausing in between words, making it sound like it was a horror movie with so many bizarre scenes. "Mr Haward, with everything you have said right now, you don't have a problem standing close to her, unlike with other women. You want answers to why you feel the way you do around her, and why you think the way you do about her. You can only get those answers by getting closer to her. Give it a try, and if at any point you feel the need to get away from her, then you will know she doesn't have any impact on you," Henry explained. Jason looked at Henry for a while but said nothing. "Take it as an experiment. Let's see what results we get. Mr Haward. If this works, we will know that, gradually, you are healing from the trauma," Henry convinced Jason and he nodded. A knock on the door interrupted their conversati

Julia lifted her gaze to see he was pouring another glass of wine and was surprised to see him smiling. She had never seen him smile. Her eyes shifted to the big bottle of wine on the table, and she realized it was empty. He was drunk. "You like working in my company?" Jason asked, staring at the glass in his hand. "Yes, I do and thank you for giving me that opportunity," Julia replied. "Good, I like the designs you made and so did my clients," Jason said, smiling, and Julia wondered if he was talking about how she felt about working in the company or if he was talking about the project designs. "It was good work done," Jason added. Jason was more relaxed now as he asked one question after another and Julia could not keep up as he was just changing topics with each query. He opened the car door and stepped out, pulling Julia with him. Jason emptied the glass of wine and threw the glass away, breaking it. Julia jumped at the sound of the breaking glass. Just then, the guard appear

Julia pressed her back against the door and sunk to the floor hugging her legs. In her silence, she recalled their passionate moment together; Jason grabbed her by the side. Her hand quickly went to that side of her body and she felt a burning sensation touching it. Looking at it, her skin had turned red, and it was bruised. It was a hand-print. She didn't know why, but she felt sad and tears started flowing down her face as she rested her head on her knees. Jason was out of the shower with a towel wrapped around his waist and with another, he dried his hair. He picked some fresh clothes from the closet, put them on, and stepped out of the room after dressing up. He draws the curtains, allowing in some light and fresh air. He turned, and his eyes fell on a red dress lying on the floor, along with female underwear. He frowned deeply, wondering if Julia had run out of the apartment naked. "How did she leave the apartment without her clothes?" Jason thought, heading towards the entran

Another guard took a pocket knife from the table and the man's eyes widened, wondering what they were going to do to him. His eyes shifted to Jason, who had a sinister smile plastered on his face. "What are you going to do?" the man asked, sounding agitated. "Huh, I have not started anything, and you just lost your nerves," Jason sneered. Peter put a drop of what was in the container, which was still making a fizzy sound, on the ground and there was smoke. They all quickly put on a mask as the liquid produces more smoke as it burns the ground. The man started coughing because he was without a mask. They all removed their masks after a minute when the liquid was done burning. That part of the floor turned dark. "The next drop will be on your wound," Jason said. "I don't have any wound," said the man, trembling in his seat. Jason just moved his gaze to the guard holding the pocket knife and the man gulped. "Now that my terms are clearly communicated, are you ready to talk?" que

After staying home for two days, Julia was ready to return to work, and it was the same day James was also going with Jason to work after his mother, Mrs Haward, convinced him to take James to work with him. Julia was already up and ready for work. She put on a simple black dress, with two fastened buttons at the front and a zipper at the back. The style was so simple; it didn't make her the centre of attraction, but equally didn't hide her like a backdrop. She stepped out of the room and quickly went downstairs, as Jason had already left the room. Upon getting to the stairs, she surveyed the place as she descended to make sure she didn't run into any of Jason's relatives. Reaching the last stairs, she quickly made her way to the door and went out of the building. Jason saw her back as she was running towards the door, and he frowned, but he didn't stop her either. He had just come out of his study. "Good morning, sir," greeted the servant who had just entered the living room. "Good
