"I don't know if I should be happy, angry or sad that you are in this state. You know what? I'll be all of them." Patricia stated bluntly, as she stared at her 'uncle' whose face was wrapped up in bandages.

"Yet you call me incompetent." She scoffed. 

George rolled his eyes, "you came here for a reason right?" 

"Why afraid I came to gloat?" She grinned.

"Then your priorities are misplaced, aren't you facing a threat? Last I checked you had ten more days on your countdown, that was a week ago." George stated. 

Noticing the shocked look on Patricia's face he smiled, not that it was obvious. "I know everything neice." 

"If you knew why the hell didn't you do anything?" 

"Why should I? How is that a problem I should be bothered with?" George asked bluntly. 

"It my reputation, if that information gets out I am done for." 

"Exactly, you are done for. I'm done taking care of your shit, if you hadn't noticed I have problems of my own. So if killing a person is so difficult for you perhaps you aren't meant to bear the surname Lee." George stated bluntly. 

"I will kill him. And I never said I didn't have control over that, I came to ask what you plan to do about Jessie?" She asked.

"How is that your concern?" 

"This was pointless." Patricia sighed, "die here for all I care." She spat, grabbing her bag to walk out.

"Wait a minute, why so angry?" He asked

"I should ask you that, after what happened to you, how can you even laugh?" 

"You think this is the first time something like this has happened? I'm done getting angry, now I get even." He shrugged. "Deal with your countdown man on your own, I deal with Jessie for you." 

Patricia smiled "you finally hate her."

"Hate? No, no but it would be better for her if I did." He stated. 

Patricia walked out of the hospital with a smile when a young woman ambushed her. "Patricia Lee!" She yelled. 

Patricia turned around thinking it was a fan, she gestured for her bodyguards to stand closer. "Can I help you?" Patricia asked.

"You are Patricia Lee aren't you?" The woman asked.

"Yes, want an autograph?" 

"What? No" Patricia frowned. "I would like to speak to you privately."

"Well if that's the case you can always make an appointment wi-"

"I already did that, you miss Lee are a difficult woman to meet." The woman replied. 

Patricia shook her head, "well if you couldn't pass through my secretary then I do-"

The woman abruptly brought out her phone and pressed play, and Patricia began to hear her own voice from the phone. As quick witted as she was she immediately recognized the situation, reaching out to grab the phone the woman backed away.

"Stop the recording right now!" Patricia growled.

"Ready to see me yet?" She asked.

"Stop the recording and we'll talk."

Once they were out if earshot and standing in an empty hallway Patricia spoke. "Let's not dilly dally on this matter, name your price." 

The woman smiled. "50 billion."

At first Patricia froze, then her brows furrowed. "Seriously?" The woman gave her a pointed look and Patricia began to laugh.

"Seriously, wow do you know how much you are asking for?"

"I am well aware." The woman said with seriousness. 

"Well I'm sorry to destroy your dreams of quick money but that is not going to happen."

"I'll release this to the press, on the internet, you know what? Why don't I hand this directly to Jessie." 

At the mention of Jessie's name Patricia hand in a flash wrapped around the woman's neck and she pushed her aganist the wall with a thud. "You have some nerve, really I have to give it to you. Although I am unsure if you are brave or just plain stupid." 

The woman grabbed Patricia arm as she choked. "You can't kill me."

Patricia's eyes widened and fear like never before washed all over her as she trembled. Patricia looked crazed and unhinged. "Is that so? You really are stupid, and in so much trouble." Squeezing harder she continued to speak "I am so done with all you opportunists and scammers thinking you can scam me out of my money? And peace of mind, I am done."

"If you kill me this recording will be everywhere." She choked.

"Really? You thought you would come her with a recording, something that could have been anybody and threaten me?" 

"If people believed Jessie Marin sent you a suicide recording what makes you think they'll doubt for a moment that you said this. You are a celebrity Patricia. There's already a seed of doubt, no matter what you say this would be the end of Patricia Lee." The woman spat.

Patricia shoved her away and shot her a deadly glare. "Five hundred thousand." 

"You're kidding, is that the amount of your life?" 

"Take it or die. I don't care if the recording gets out, I will kill you. With my bare hands." Patricia informed her.

"Bring every copy of the recording and come over tomorrow, .my secretary's will be expecting you." She said turning around to walk away.

"Miss is everything alright?" 

"That woman, take note of her. Have someone tail her, and find out everything you can learn about her." Patricia said, she couldn't believe this kind of thing was coming to bite her in the ass. 

Seems like she would have to find that darned reporter again, somehow Patricia didn't think she was as oblivious to the fact that someone was eavesdropping while she was talking Lenora in her trailer that day.

************************************

"I think it's here Sebastian." Jessie said looking out of the vehicle. "Oh! Yeah look that's Jonathan." 

The car slowly came to a halt and Jessie to excited and anxious didn't wait for Sebastian to come open her door, she was already out by the time the car stopped. 

"Jonathan" Jessie called out to him and he turned around. 

"Jessie, hi" he waved at her.

"Have you been here long?" She asked.

Jonathan shook his head even though he was here almost an hour ago. "I just arrived."

"Oh thank goodness I was afraid I kept you waiting." She smiled as they walked into the cafe.

"Whay did you want to talk about?" Jonathan asked.

Jessie turned to look at him, and she sighed. "Uh... what do you know about Jason's mother?" 

Jonathan blinked then pursed his lips in thought. "Nothing much, I know she died almost fifteen years ago, never met her though."

"Hmmm..." Jessie sighed.

"Is this about Jason's episodes?" Jessie looked at him in shock but he just shrugged. "News travels, gossip even faster."

"Jonathan, I'm about to tell you something pretty absurd and I need you to not freak out and try to be open minded." Jessie said.

"Okay?"

"Your mother, Celeste Shim is also Jasons' mother." 

Jonathan shook his head in confusion. "What? Are you being serious right now?" 

"I know this is hard to swallow bu-"

"You think?! How did you find that out?"

"Jonathan please calm down, she admitted it to me herself. And I felt you should know." 

"Does Jason know?" Jonathan asked and Jessie sighed again.

Shaking her head "I didn't think it was the right time to tell him, he's pretty unstable honestly and he was just starting to get over it, it wouldn't seem like the smartest move to tell him."

"Then why did you tell me?" He asked, staring at her with such and intense gaze Jessie felt very uncomfortable.

"Jonathan..."

"How do you expect me to believe you? You know what? I refuse to believe you, my mother wouldn't lie to me like that. She wouldn't loe to Jason like that if he were her son. Goddamn Jessie you've met the woman, you yourself mentioned how nice she was." 

"Yes that was before I found out she has been lying not to only Jason but you as well." Jessie replied "look Jonathan I'm not asking you to blindly believe my words and forsake your mother. I am right and you can prove it." 

"What?"

She reached into her bag and placed a toothbrush on the counter top before them. "You know what to do." 

Jonathan looked at the toothbrush then at her, sensing his hesitation Jessie added "you'll lose nothing by trying. If it's false I'll accept any consequence you want to give me, if not then you have to have a long talk with you mother." 

Jonathan sighed and grabbed the toothbrush. "If this isn't a lie then does that mean Jason is my brother? Asin, brother brother?" 

Jessie nodded.

"When are you going to tell him?" 

She shook her head again. "I don't know, I don't know how to. He seems so happy these days I don't want to ruin that." 

Jonathan smiled sadly. "You really love him don't you?"

"More than I ever thought." 

As they walked out of the restaurant Jessie gave Jonathan a small hug and turned to walk back to Sebastian. "Wait, one more thing" he said turning around. "Can I have Matt's number?"
