JAX My eyes drifted to the watch strapped on my arm. It was time for my shift.The starry night sky had come out in it's full glory."Man it's time for my shift" I sighed, standing up.Michael nodded and stood with me."Find your father so you can stop all these menial jobs you do bro" Michael whispered before walking away towards the exit. He was saying the truth. I have a rich father out there and I'm here working multiple shifts just to put food on the table.I serve people for a living while my father is somewhere enjoying all the good things life has to offer. I hissed, my irritation written all over my face as I walked towards the bar counter. Customers poured in as usual but I was thoroughly absent minded. I didn't even greet or say a word to them. I only took down their orders and served them. My mind was in disarray. My thoughts ran wild as I sought to find answers on how I'll find back my father or atleast run into that private investigator. He was literally my onl
JAXIt was a bright beautiful day, the sun lit it's radiants of light all over the place. Waking up every morning to see myself at my king sized luxurious bed was a reason to live longer. I loved the enormous wealth, the power and respect that came along with it was soul lifting. At the snap of my finger a fleet of men would run up to me and be willing to grant every request of mine. Wealth was like a remote which I could use to control how people treat me. All I wished for, came to pass and I will make sure I get the best of it. My father has officially named me the heir of LS corporations and this morning a meeting has been organized to finalize an investment deal with young well to do investors who were willing to invest in LS corporation for a specific agreed time.My secretary walked slightly behind me and so as my bodyguards. A step into the meeting room and all eyes veered towards my direction. Weighing my complete outfit, I was dressed in black designed Italian tuxedo and
JANIS I sat on the broad king sized sofa with my mum sitting next to me as we tittered together. I needed some rest and also something entertaining to find doing. Jerome was fast asleep right now and I was more than relieved. The boy was just a handful of work. I barely went out any more. I seldomly had time to actually go out and just have a good time with my friends.Eyebags coated my optics and my bones ached from the lack of sleep I had been getting as a result of Jerome. He was two years now and his energy increased everyday. He was too agile and playful, always giving me a hell lot of work but still I couldn't help but admire my baby boy. I badly wished his father was by his side. It hurts my heart everytime I think of the fact that the uber driver was denied access to his son all because of our financial difference. I couldn't bring myself to tell Stravis or anyone the truth about the real identity of Jerome's father. He wasn't the type of man I would normally sle
JANIS' POVI stood transfixed on the spot, my mouth at agape as I stared at the last person I never thought I would ever see again in my life.The Uber driver looked so stinking rich! And did I mention that he looked so fucking hot!Holy shit.My breathing was stumped and I immediately lost my voice. I was stunned,bewildered, robbed off my speech, amazed...any word or phrase to describe how shocked I was right now.."Uhm..Mr..uhm" I could barely even complete my sentence. I was stuttering and speaking gibberish.What the fuck is wrong with me?!I had totally planned out what I'll say to the uber driver if I ever did meet him again.I planned on apologising for Stravis' behaviour, explain to him how long I had searched for him all around the city and how I'm eager for him to meet his son, Jerome.But now, no matter how much I tried, I couldn't even get the words to roll out of my mouth.It seemed I had forgotten how to speak English.I could only stutter gibberish and incomplete senten
JAX'S POVOne hour earlier I sauntered into the black limousine that was parked in waiting for me and my personal assistant who ambled behind me. I was lavishly dressed, claded in a white expensive tuxedo and a matching trouser. My hair was sleek, set to cascade down to the nape of my neck and not a single hair was out of place. Various rings hugged my fingers and an expensive chain hung around my neck. My expensive cologne glued on to me like a second skin, feeling the air with its heavenly scent wherever I went to. I really looked like a man of authority and just the thought got me smiling. "Good evening sir" the chauffeur greeted me as he pulled open the doors for I and my personal assistant.I passed him a nod and a smile which he acknowledged.I sat down in one of the leather seats, the air conditioning had its system reignited as the cool breeze settled on me, making me relaxed and comfortable. Although I wasn't exactly excited to attend this event, irregardless of t
JANIS' POV "Cut the charade Janis. We aren't on friendly terms and we've never been on friendly terms. Don't act like you care about me because you never did. I just came here so I can get to know the whereabouts of my son. Where is my son Janis?" Jax spat at me, his tone bitter and irked. I was confused. Time stood still in an instant for me and it seemed like the universe and all in it had come to a halt. What did Jax just say? Did I fucking hear him right?"Excuse me?" I asked with raised brows, my confusion written all over my face."You heard me right Miss Walter. I believe I didn't speak French or Latin. I came here for my son so cut the charade and give me my son! Where did you keep him?!" he snapped scowfully at me. I was dumbstruck, robbed off my speech and at lost for words. What the hell!Who the fuck does Jax thinks he is to just barge into my life and demand for our son like he isn't my son too!?He said it like as if I forcefully kept the child away from him. I wou
"Thank you so much Mr Benson" Stravis appreciated, her eyes glinting cheerfully. "Thank you too, we look forward to working with you Miss Stravis" Mr Benson gave a warm smile."We will come to a conclusion about the deal once it's approved, for now you can reach us on our mail" he added whilst handing over a business card to Stravis.Delightfully they shook hands and walked away,a victorious smile played on the lips of Stravis as she raised her head up and congratulated herself for a job well done.Securing a meeting and a partnership deal with Mr Benson was a huge step for the Walter corporation, this particular partnership deal will elevate the company and bring great value.In Stravis moment of self praises her eye stumbles upon a very familiar person, she strained her eyes to see this familiar figure clearly as the young man walked towards her. Recognition dawned on his facials as he got closer."Isn't this that poor man that came asking for his son years ago?" Stravis said to he
JANIS' POV The moment the screeching tires of our car came to a halt, I didn't even wait for a nano-second to pass by before lurching out through the doors of the car.I slammed the doors shut behind me causing Stravis to flinch as she was fixing up the loose buttons of her blazer."Sheesh Janis, the house isn't running away you know!?" I heard Stravis yell at me for my rough demeanour. I shut all her wordings out. The only thing I could hear right now was the heavy pounding of my heart in my rib cages.It felt like my heart could jump out of my body any minute. My tremor was at its summit and my breathing would frequently clog in my chest.I swiftly pushed open the huge doors of the mansion and dashed upstairs with my trepadised feet. Jax's words still echoed and resonated within the walls of my ears. He wanted to take Jerome away from me and he was damn serious.His entire physique and aura spoke of a deadly and threatening wealth. It was evident in him. He wasn't dressed as a
