"Jason? Jason! What are you thinking? What are you going to do about this intruder?" Patricia snapped her fingers to pull his head out of the clouds. Why was he looking at her in that way? It sent chills down her spine. 

Jason blinked and visibly relaxed. Clearing his throat he finally spoke. "You shouldn't get too worked up about other people's business Patricia. It's my manor after all, I'll handle my matters. So you just focus on the ball." He stated indifferently. As she opened her mouth to what he assumed was protest he continued, interrupting her. "If that would be all, butler Choi see them out. Goodday ladies." He finished walking away without a second glance. 

How easy would have been to just have killed her, although it will start a full blown war with the Lee's. No that he minded anyway, he just didn't want to taint his hands with blood like hers, or get Jessie dragged into the crossfire. It was first everyone's best interest he walk away.

"Sir you have a call in your office." A female staff member informed him. He nodded and walked to his study. 

"Jason Kang." He answered the phone.

"Hey Jason, it me. How did go?" Paul asked at the other side of the speaker.

"Why are you calling my landline?" Jason asked.

"Because you wouldn't answer your phone" he stated matter of factly. 

"And for good reason, surely running a hospital must be quite tasking, you should do your work properly." Jason scolded him.

"Ugh you sound like my dad! I was bored and I remembered you mentioned Patricia coming over to you manor, so I thought I should ask how it went." He said.

"How are you so jobless." Jason groaned. 

"Come on, you know you want to talk about it." He insisted. 

"I'm not sure, I just had a very graphic imagination of Patricia dying at my hands." Jason said "it felt so right but still quite annoying, I was both relieved and disappointed when I realised I was just imagining it." 

"So why didn't you actually do it?" Paul said grimly.

"What?" 

"Why didn't you do it? I mean if she's dead wouldn't your life get better? You're only engaged to her because Paradise needs you to get close enough to find out something that might be helpful in taking the family down, plus it will improve your chances with Jessie. So why not." Paul explained. 

"Well first off, I'm not ready to go into an all out war with the Lee's, besides why should I taint my hands with her blood. It's quite shocking to hear you say that, didn't you always prefer Patricia for me?" Jason frowned. 

"Of course not. What kind of friend would I be to what you to be married to such a dragon. I thought about it background wise, Jessie is a scandal waiting to happen and Patricia is just a... bomb."

"You're not making any sense, but enough about that, I don't want to talk about it." He sighed. "Jessie was almost seen, or rather she was. It would have gone out of hand if they actually saw her face." 

" Yet you're oddly in a good mood." Paul replied. 

"Really how do you know?" Jason asked sacarstically.

"Well for one, you don't have that annoying apathy in your tone and your responses seem relaxed and comfortable." Paul stated.

"Well the whole incident did allow me be in an enclosed space with Jessie so that a win." He said without restraint. 

"Wow... look at my engaged friend in love with another woman. You know if it works out between you and Jessie, how will you tell your children you first met?" Paul asked in a teasing tone.

"Haha very funny. Whose voice is that? You're not at work are you?" Jason asked when he heard a female voice in the background. 

"Oh I'm out looking for an engagement ring." He stated bluntly. 

"An engagement ring?"

"Yeah, oh yeah I'm getting engaged apparently."

"Since when? You're mother finally managed to trap you?" Jason said, it was his turn to laugh.

"Worse she included my father, ugh... that sly woman, she definitely knows how to play her cards." Paul shuddered. 

"Who is the unlucky lady?"

"Choi Yuri, I don't think you'd know them." Paul replied. 

"Actually I do, her family though. They are shareholders, will probably be invited to the ball." He said. "But haven't you learned anything from me? Getting into this things because of your father is just going to frustrate one person, you."

"Hey, my father is scary." Paul retorted. 

"Scarier than mine?" 

"I'm the last born, you're the heir. It not like I can steal my father's company from right under him, I mean I would still have two brothers to battle." 

"I didn't say steal your father's company, that's not going to be possible in this lifetime-"

"Ouch." Paul interrupted. 

"What? You brought this one yourself. Why would you even study law? Besides you've been rebelling from day one, what changed?" Jason asked.

"He was scarier than usual?" Paul said sacarstically. 

"It's sad how all of you fear you father so much, I mean he is the nicest guy I know. I was always so jealous of you when we were little." Jason shook his head.

"And the funny thing is if we could join alliances he wouldn't be able to order us as he wishes." Paul stated ruefully. "It too bad I have to jackasses as older brothers."

"You know, if you actually think that way? Why don't you bring them together then. Come to an agreement, who is going to be the heir, and conditions beneficial to all parties." Jason said.

"Hmm that makes sense, hey how about your ball?" Paul asked.

"I guess, I'll inform Matt about it." Jason said.

"Jason?" Jessie called out to him, peering into his office. 

"It would b-" 

"Goodbye Paul." Jason interrupted him and as he was trying to stop him, Jason hung up.

"Jessie? This is a lovely surprise." He said with a small smile. "Have a seat." He gestured to the couch he stood beside.

"No thank you, I just have a few questions." She entered the room, leaving the door open behind her. Jason eyed her cautious but determined movements with suspicion. 

"Tell me the truth now, why are you still engaged to Patricia?"

Preview 136: Too arrogant. 

Jessie did not realise this at first, but somehow how? She had no idea but somehow he managed to trap her between him and his desk. She left the door open so she would get her answer and leave quickly, after their meeting this morning she felt... she didn't know what she felt but it was not good. And that was the reason she purposely stayed away from Jason all this while. She managed to stay away and she felt all that hard work was crumbling with each step he took towards her. Why did he make her feel this way? So jumbled up and nervous.
