As I'm sitting in the great room. I hear a knock on the door. Ace is not home , and the body guards aren't allowed to open the door for anyone .
I stand and walk to the door.
When I open I see Jason.
"Hi, come in. " I say to him .
I walk him straight into the lovely kitchen , loving the new house by the way.
"Any beverage you'd like to have?" I ask him.
"Coffee is okay." He says .
He pulls a chair from behind the island table and I heat some water .
"What's up, why are you here." I ask him. He smile a 'that was expected' smile .
"I want to speak about the future of our business ." He says .
I begin getting scared . What does he mean by that , is something wrong. Are we still showing losses?
"Look I want to start off by apologising. I know that in life , I've done you so wrong . I know that.
You deserve an explanation for what I've done. But I just think that it's because I'm just selfish and I never get satisfied.
You didn't deserve that Cassiey . You deserved so much more . And you still do. I'm so sorry." He starts .
"Jason , I'm not angry anymore . I dont have time for grudges. " I reply smiling. I push the cup to him , and move mine to my lips .
"I'm more than grateful for that . And that you let me live a luxurious life. Even when I didnt deserve it.
You had the right to take away the house , but you didnt. You are the sole capital contributor for Smith Industries, you could've sued it away from me.
I'm more than grateful . But..." he begins .
He pulls out a brown envelope, my heart starts beating outloud. What if the company has collapsed due to the big risk that we took with the Hawaiian project ?
"A year ago , I invested my life savings in a company in Paris. It is just like the one we run , just isn't as successful as we are .
The company doesnt just buy property and sell or rent it. It also has mines in Africa.
The company is still showing losses , which is why I decided to intervene. In hopes that I can bring it back up." He says .
"Oh , that's great Jason . I'm super proud of you . And I hope you do extra well . Dont mess up though ." I warn him.
"Listen till the end please." He says , too softly for how I'm used to.
"Okay." Now its peeked my interest again .
"Cassiey , I see you and Ace. And my heart breaks everytime , knowing that I wasted so much of your time and energy .
I feel like I shouldn't be here at all. In two months , I'll be officially taking over the company is Paris .
I've taken the big decision to move there , permanently. I'm done being a nuisance in you and Ace's life. So yes , that's the news ." He says .
"I'm excited for you Jason . You get to open up a new chapter of your life. I just pray that you dont mess up again ." I say to him.
He picks up the envelop and my heart beats fast again .
"I've also decided to resign from Smith Industries. I'm handing over my shares of the company to Ace .
