Declan walked up to the man bedside and placed the package on a table. he opened the box and brought a weird looking leaf. He turned back to look at Mandy who placed her hands together apologetically and moved back to the side of the door. Declan grabbed a crucible and a few bottles of liquid.After minutes of mixing, he poured the resulting green goo into a bottle and set it aside before signaling to Mandy.“I hope you haven’t given him anything since the other incident with Dr. Great?”“No, I made sure that no drugs or person came into this room except from me.” Mandy replied. Declan nodded and grabbed the bottle moving towards the man lying on the bed. He administered the liquid and color flooded the old man’s face. Tossing aside the bottle, he backed away washed his hands.“He is in the clear as long as he isn’t given any weird substance. He will be fine until I can find the herb that would serve as a permanent cure.” Declan said walking out of the room with Mandy.“Alright. I won
The next day, Jason reached out and Knocked on the front door of the Williams household. Seconds later, the front door opened and Clara stared at him with a big smile on her face.“Jason, come on in. how nice of you to come over” She said, moving aside for him to enter. “It is nothing. I had to see how May is doing.” Jason said as he walked into the house.“She is still asleep. Tired and all. After everything that she had been through yesterday, it is not surprising that she will be in bed till afternoon” Clara shut the door and led him to the living room. “Take a seat. Do you have something for her? I can wake her up if you want” “No, I wouldn’t want to deprive her of a well-deserved rest. Emm, whenever she wakes up, please tell her that I would want to have dinner with her. We didn’t really complete our date the other day before she was taken.” Jason said.“I will make sure to do that”“And, do you think you and Ashley would be available by then? I would love it for the both of you
‘What is he doing here? And with her?’May froze at the entrance of the Restaurant, her gaze fixed on Declan sitting side by side with Mandy while sipping a drink.“May, do you plan on moving soon or do you want us to remain here all night?” Clara asked and gave her a small shove. May snapped out of her daze and walked into the restaurant after Jason without removing her gaze. They arrived at their table and sat down. Jason looked at May and flashed her a smile which she hurriedly returned.“so, what would you all like to order?” He asked, handling May the menu.“Well, an expensive restaurant like this should have some exotic meals that I would love to try out.” Clara said snatching the menu before May could get it. May smiled at Jason and grabbed another menu and started to pretend to go through it.She peeked over the top of the menu to look at Declan who had a small smile on his face as he held a discussion with Mandy. What was the relationship between those two? She reasoned and
“What fifty million?!” May asked, looking petrified. “What do you mean what fifty million? The fifty million that you said the company would be willing to invest for quadruples the amount.” Clara stated sharply.“Mum, I still don't trust something like that. How about I just use five million instead? Using fifty million would be too risky especially for the company” May said. “You, you will be offering fifty million and that–.”“No, I get it. She is cautious, something a good business woman should be. But I am asking you to trust me on this. The fifty million won't come back to bite you in the back.” Jason interjected. ‘That’s If. It will actually be coming back at all.’ May thought looking at Jason with scrutinizing eyes.“Fine. I will send the money when I get back home.” May said but Jason frowned. “Is anything wrong with what I just said?”“No, I just don't see any reason as to why you can't wire the transfers now. It wouldn't be impossible, would it?” “No, not really. I just
“What?!”Clara yelled and sprang up from her seat. She glared at a waiter with a frustrated expression on her face.“What do you mean by seven million?” she asked, shaking her head.“I mean your bill. You ordered the most expensive palette of dishes that we had to offer, amounting the bill to seven million” the waiter said politely with an underlying tone of disdain.May looked around the restaurant, focusing his gaze towards the restroom.“Emm please there was a young man that we came with; the one who made the reservation. I believe that he is the one who you should be passing this bill to.” May said politely while pulling her mother by her dress.“Sorry, but Mr. Jason left a couple of minutes ago saying that you were to pay the bill of the meal that you had all eaten today.” The waiter said, the displeasure evident in his tone. May was a bit confused. Why would Jason ask them out on a dinner night without paying? Unless…’ Realization dawned on her as she turned around, her gaze

"How did you get in here, woman? I ask for the last time." Declan King sat at the edge of the king sized bed in a magnificent suite of hotel Antonio, New York. He wore a grim expression and took a final look at the lady clinged beside him. The lady had a red dress that hugged her curvy body on. The upper part of the dress was open in a v cut, letting the right amount of cleavage flash. The slit of her dress cut deep on the left side, giving her thick thigh away. Declan's eyes met with hers and she gave him a curt wink, with her lower lip trapped between her teeth. Declan wasn't in the slightest entertained by her showcase. "Ivy. Call me Ivy. And yeah, the right question should be how do you want me to make you feel...." Ivy ran her hand over Declan's shirt as she spoke. "Don't!" Declan slapped her hand away and the top buttons of his shirt tore apart. He sprang up at once, his teeth gritted at the mess. He was about to say something when the room door opened and two ladi
"Hope there's no problem? You sound like it's something serious." Mandy adjusted, genuinely concerned. "I'm fine, trust me. Like I said, it's for my ex, May." "Hmmm. What about May? Never knew you updated your status yet. You hinted it earlier but thought I simply heard wrongly ." "No, you did not. May and I are separated.... since this afternoon but that's not the point now. I need you to see that Lucien Enterprise keep their part of the deal and quit stressing May out already" He sounded a bit too serious in his own ears and hated it. Maybe he was becoming too desperate for things to work out. "Relax. I will see to that right away, trust me and quit stressing" Mandy cleared her throat, a known act when she wants to pry. "But why do you care so badly? I mean— she's your ex now" "We're exes not enemies, Mandy. Maybe I should get back to work now. Ttyl!" Declan was about to hang up. "Wait... One more thing. My grandpa's illness has persisted.I need your help." Mandy's voice
