Jay's POV: I walked briskly, my heart pounding inside my chest and u arrived at my father's office; the nurturing and crushing ground of my dreams. The glassy wall was well designed with golden artifacts tinted on it. The sleek executive comfy chairs round on his table and the ceramic desk, full of documents, always served as a reminder to the success he had built over the years. Whenever I walk into this office, I feel like a visitor, regardless of the fact that it's actually my inheritance. I don't know if I really have a place in this empire because it is a huge contrast to my long lost dream. "Welcome boy." He greeted me heartily, "come-on, have a seat." He offered. "Thank you." I replied warmly, his gaze fixed on me. The air is filled with tension as my baffled heart gives me unrest. My mind was pounding and I was unsure of what he was about to say. My legs trembled but I tried to hide it and feigned a weak smile at him. As usual, he was silent, keenly observing me and x-r

Jay's POV I struggled to maintain my composure in the room and was breathing heavily. The air was thick with silence and the tension of my uncertain future clouded my mind. I just watched as they exchanged glances at each other, whispering into their ears and murmuring softly. They were x-raying the proposal I just delivered and seeing their faces alone scared me to the marrow. The way they looked at me was puzzling and sent shivers down my spine. Everytime any of them raise their heads, I'll join them, anticipating a reply in my mind with the possibility of me getting my dream. I didn't even know what to think. I'm confused. I really need this to work. Brian had made it clear that this was my last chance and I don't want to fuck it up. It's so frustrating here. I feel hot inside, even though the room was well ventilated and full of strong air conditioning systems, I still somehow felt sweat drops trickling down my cheek. That annoying call from Brian was so cruel and interrupted

Jay's POVYou know after last night's altercation with Brian, I decided to teach him and his little brat a lesson. We'll be having a board meeting and I spent my time last night working on a major deal I strongly believe will change his mind. It will prove to him that I'm capable of leading the BBK. But damn, I'm tired. I yawned loudly, my eyes heavy with sleep. I sold it at work last night. Just look at the way everywhere is littered with papers. Well, it's not a problem, the problem at hand remains unsolved, gaining Brian and the board to my side.Just imagine last night. The kind of pressure he's mounting on me. What kind of man is he that does not seem to appreciate hard work? All my efforts, all my ideas, all my input, every attempt I've made to prove him wrong only falls short in his eyes.I know I'm good, but the way he treats me makes me unsure of it.I can't help but wonder if I will ever be able to earn Brian's trust or if I'm just destined to fail.I just believe that toda

Jay's POV“Phew!” I yawned heavily.It's been a long while since I got this lovely quietness.Not from the outside, but from within. I feel some sort of peace inside. For the first time in a long while, I feel happy.The old smart Brian has been fooled and I'm gonna be the one to save his ass.The sweet taste of my coffee danced on my tongue and its aroma filled the environment. This reminds me of myself, a few nights ago, sobbing quietly alone in this office.I think I need a change of taste. Maybe Vodka would be better.Back to Vanessa. If I don't do something, she'll do something bad, I mean really bad.I don't understand how she was able to fool silly Brian. Even torment me all these while, gee, come on.My head just keeps replaying all she's ever done to me and now, with every sip, I picture myself taking her down and escorting her to jail.It's time to dig deeper. All Charlie sent to me was just the tip of the iceberg, there's more to this. I need to find out more.First of all,
