"What the...."Jameson's words caught in his throat as he watched the two figures abruptly disentangle from each other.Yazmine and Aiden's faces turned pale, both momentarily forgetting how to speak."James?!" Yazmine scratched her head awkwardly. "W... what are you doing here?""What do you mean by that question? It was you who asked me to help with the grocery store later on. When did you return? And..." Jameson's gaze fixed on Aiden, his expression intense."And what the heck were you doing with my sister?" he uttered through gritted teeth."Mr. James, I can explain, um..." Aiden swallowed, exchanging a glance with Yazmine for a moment."I've been dating Yazmine for a while now, and I was about to let you know. I'm so sorry you had to find out this way," Aiden apologized politely, though clearly nervous."Oh really?" Jameson stepped forward, but Yazmine stood in his way, positioning herself between Jameson and Aiden. Her gaze locked with Jameson's."Brother, allow me to introduce
"What the hell do you want?" She asked."Don't you miss me?" He asked lightly, shifting his gaze down to her breasts. Phoenix wasn't wearing much... just a tube top and shorts, so Griffin could see those lovely peaches calling for his attention."Get lost, nitwit," she groaned."Don't you miss how we used to fuck...?" He asked, drawing his face close. "Damn. You look sexier than before."Phoenix managed to slip her hands out, she pushed his hand holding the knife away from her neck and kneed his groin.Trying to get away, Griffin held her again, this time punching her face. Phoenix's lips bursted.Griffin snaked his hand hard around her neck, choking her."Diego's bitch number one.. am I right? Did you enjoy how that bastard fucked and trashed you aside.. that you now work for him?""At least.. he.. is better than you," she managed to speak."Are you still in love with him? The man that literally fucks without giving a damn about you?""That is none of your business, Griffin," Phoenix

[YEARS AGO]THE FAMOUS ROMEO GONZALEZ STEPPED DOWN FROM BEING THE PRESIDENT.Diego threw his phone one side after seeing the news. Stupid! Does his father thinks doing this would make him stop hating him?A knock on his door interrupted him."Go away, whoever it is," he said coldly."It's Griffin," The voice sounded and his eyes open."I obviously said go away," Diego said coldly."C'mon on out, I need to show you something," Griffin said stubbornly."I said get the fuck out! Don't try to get close to me," Diego snapped.The door suddenly opened and Griffin stepped in. Diego got up from his bed with a scowl."The hell?!" "You should stop being like this. We are the only boys in this big house. We should be close to each other just like how we were when little," Griffin stated but Diego marched towards him, grabbing his shirt."I hate it when someone invades my privacy. I don't want to be close to anyone.. especially someone like you!" He spat.Griffin looked down at his hand and sigh
The old man saw the scene and was shocked. Diego smirked; all of this was just his plan."I saw your son! Do you think I am blind?" Old Mavis questioned Vincent and Hannah."There must be a misunderstanding. Why would Griffin want to hurt Diego? We all have seen how close these two are," Hannah spoke."That's it... we are going to choose the next president. And I have already decided who I am going to give that power to."Hannah's face turned pale. If Old Mavis had a bad impression of Griffin, that would be a problem."Shouldn't we test them first? I mean their capability," Hannah suggested, and the old man thought for a while before agreeing.__The Gonzalez corporation was after an impossible contract. Old Mavis gave the assignment to Griffin and Diego.Diego was 18, while Griffin was 20. Both were handsome and brilliant. They were each assigned a mentor to guide them."Are you sure about this? Remember, you never wanted this path," Jameson said worriedly to Diego."I need to teach
Silence hung in the car as Phoenix thought about how Diego had saved her. This man literally killed all of them without batting an eye. Then, he set the club on fire. Gawd! He is really a devil."Why did you save me?" she asked lightly."It comes with a price," Diego stated. "From now on, you work for me. I'm gathering my own army in the underworld. You'll train and work undercover.""Hm, I accept," Phoenix agreed without thinking much. Diego owned her life now; she had no objections to it.___"I swear to Gawd, Phoenix, I was drunk! I didn't even know what I was doing!" Griffin yelled as he tried to stop Phoenix, who didn't respond."Phoenix," Griffin held her, his eyes tearing up a little."Do you know who saved me back there?" she asked, and Griffin frowned. "It was Diego. I belong to him now, and it was my choice to accept."Griffin held her face close. "You can't leave me, please. Don't do this. I love you. I can't lose you too."Phoenix shook her head and walked out on him, head
"I know I've wronged you, but I'm sorry. I shouldn't have acted like an ingrate. I hate myself for that. And..." Jameson took a deep breath. "I found out that you like me..."Jackie's expression remained blank as he spoke."And thinking of it makes me hate myself even more. Jackie, I... uhm... don't know what to think. I really don't want to hurt—""Should I help you think?" Jackie asked."How?" he asked, confused.Jackie held his collar and crashed her lips on his. She stayed like that for a while; Jameson froze in shock until she slowly pulled away, staring at him."How about now?" she asked lightly. Jameson stayed silent, staring deep at her.When the man didn't respond, disappointment washed over Jackie's face. He doesn't feel the same way? If so, then she should just give up here.Just as she made to step back, Jameson immediately held her waist and pulled her to himself, their chests colliding."Mr. James?" Jackie called lightly. Jameson's stare was serious and unreadable."Well
